I have been noticing that if I turn up my volume when headphones or external speaker is plugged in, it automatically goes down. Im looking to rip out whatever is not allowing my volume to go up loud. Anyone have any ideas where I can start looking? I have a rooted VM Desire 510 with factory kernel and ROM. I have booted a kernel before that was not write protected and removed a bunch of bloatware and unneeded system apps.

Try using Bass Booster by Desaxed Studios from the Play Store after you install it open it up then tap the wrench in the top right corner and make sure that you uncheck Show Status Icon and Auto Detect Presets then tap the back in the upper left corner and tick the equalizer box and move the sliders up to the full top and then change them down to your likings..

Thanks! So far that app is working... I was using volume equalizer something and when I went to turn up the eq settings, my other levels would auto turn down and my max volume would diminish.

I hated that app terribly! That's the first one I tried and was like fk that it's not worth it!!
Next to find primers on modifying a kernel... Thanks again

I tend to not have vibrate on out night especially this phone, the vibrate is quite loud and the curved back doesn't help when the phone is on my bedside cabinet.
I switched to sound only in sound settings but to my surprise it still vibrated when I received a text via stock sms app, I guess the same would happen if I received a whatsapp message.
Does anybody know how to easily turn off ALL App specific vibrate settings in go? Or would I have to go into each individual app to switch it off?
Thanks

Great timing, I was just about to post the same question (if it's an answer you want the best I can offer is "No, I don't think you can, at least I haven't found out how, which is why I'm here").
For me it's the alarm, a nice tune to wake up to is great but it's not so nice when the phone spazzes out and bounces all over the cabinet like a runaway chainsaw (over dramatic, moi?). I've not found anything to turn it off and it's really annoying.
Bit of a design flaw really, surely the overall sound settings should be the master, but a setting should allow you to override it via app, I.e if on it allows app settings to use it's own sound settings if off it goes by the master. Maybe that's expecting too much.

It's worse than that, I don't have vibration switched on for anything, the sound profile is "Normal" (as opposed to Vibrate or Silent) and my in-app settings also have it turned off wherever there's an option to do so but the alarm still sets it off.
I suffer from the same....

I tied to install the GE HD3.2 and it has an option to get the alarm without vibration.
when I switched back to Revolution 20.2 this option disappeared......
Just push the stock GE clock app to your system/app folder and set correct permissions and you can turn vibrate off on any Sense ROM ... Best way is to just flash that app in custom recovery, I will post it if anybody requires.
One of the apps muted music and sounds and sounds on my nook hd plus. I've been googling to find the setting where I can unmute but the only answers I'm finding is to install an app to do that. Is that really the case? There's no way to unmute with settings in stock nook without installing third party app?

Did you try pushing the volume up button on the side? If that doesn't work, there should be volume settings in settings.

Pushing button up doesnt unmute. There's no setting in the sound volume section.

You could go back into the app and unmute if it has that option.
You could try rebooting and trying the volume button without removing the app.
Remove the app, and reboot.
And them I'm out of ideas. Something should work without installing an app to fix the sound.
What indications are you getting that it is muted (other than no sound)? Any symbols or anything? And you cannot raise the volume by just moving the volume bar?

The speaker icon in the menu is striken out - a typical mute indicator. the mute icon is not clickable. moving the bar doesnt unmute the sound (the bar does move). Based on googling the only answer I found was to install a third party app, someone recommended "Volume Control +" and that's what I used.
I dont know which app muted the sound, I just reflashed the nook and reinstalled bunch of apps that were on it before. Pushing button up on the side changes increases the volume (as indicated on the bar in the settings) but does not unmute the sound.
Something should work without installing an app to fix the sound - that was exactly my thought. Easiest way to replicate it is to mute it with the above app and trying to find a way to unmute it using stock tools.
Links I found:
http://bookclubs.barnesandnoble.com...t/Nook-HD-plus-Volume-muted/m-p/1457882#M6992 (solution on bn forum is to install a third party app)
http://www.askmefast.com/My_Nook_ta...ork_and_now_there_is_no_sound-qna1584455.html
Sp perhaps just an app that had a feature gone wrong - locks all control.
Which would mean that if the app causing it is disabled, removed, or perhaps blocked from controlling sound via privacy controls, then the issue would be removed as well (restart possibly needed). And that is how to get around the installation of an app to fix the problem.
[Just need to find the correct app one at a time via the above.]
Turn on the Bluetooth option then turn it back off.
You may even have to try connecting the headphones on first, then turn on and connect the bluetooth, then turn it off.
When I plug in my headphones you get the headphone helper in the status bar. Is there a way to disable this or change it?
I use play music only and it's not even one of the options.

This little bar was driving me nuts too. You can turn this off by going to Settings --> Notification Panel --> Recommended Apps--> Turn Off

You're the man.. Thanks meter clicked...
I don't really wan't a custom rom, but do have Magisk and TWRP. It's the last thing I don't like about this phone (just came from the Pixel 2 XL).
Try this:
In Developer Options, search for Absolute Volume, then turn it off.
I found "Disable Absolute Volume" and tried it. Still when the phone turns back on the pop up is there the moment I turn up the volume.
Yeah It seems that is not a permanent solution... You could try to automate it with tasker and autoinput, but i dont think is worth the effort...
Yeah I agree, Thanks for the info.
samfix from xda labs used to cope with it but no update since pie..
Yeah, I tried it and no go on pie. Its a really small thing, just the last thing that bugs me.
i would add the mess with dolby atmos. I think it turns off randomly.

Well, if money is not the problem, you can do it with Tasker and AutoTools and it works just fine. I don't have root. Set it up once and forget it:
Just google "disable-safe-volume-warning-no-root-required" (geez, you can't even share a link to tutorial)
I haven't found easier solution for non-root. Sorry if OP looks for something root-only...
It is available in Stock ROM, no root required.
Settings > Sounds and vibration > Volume
Tap the three vertical dots in the top right,
Select "Media Volume Limiter" (It's the only option on my phone')
(Now here comes the counter-intuitive part)
Turn it on.
Set the "Custom Volume Limit" all the way to the right.

is it possible that after a reboot the setting resets?
if so, there are modules like gravity box for edxposed that can change it for good. maybe others too.

Wherever limit you set (in the case, full volume) persists.
I have just rebooted my phone and the limiter is still on, and set to full.

ok then they must have changed it in pie since i remember users complaining of it being reset after each reboot( probably an oreo issue)

That STILL gives you the warning once after every reboot.
BUT! If you use systemui tuner you can actually, permanently, disable it. Seems to be the only way without root.
@Delano.888 Yeah, just had that experience at the very moment that you posted that.
Thanks for the pointer to SystemUI Tuner.
i knew i wasn't crazy....
Does anyone know how to get rid of this with Tasker? The old method no longer works, and I am afraid I am going to wreck my car trying to click the ok on the screen when I need the volume up. Please help! I've literally tried everything from granting securetask device ownership rights etc... I can even watch the setting change on my Note 9 without affecting the warning whatsoever. Any ideas??? Also, what exactly does deprecated mean?
Yes there is. I have done it multiple times. You will need a PC and Magisk Manager though. Tried it worked on Android 10 too.
The solution is with Smali Patcher. It makes Magisk module for individual phones via PC when being connected to the phone in ADB mode.
Google it. You will find the xda link.

That issue has been fixed in subsequent FW updates.
Is this a package that can be disable from adb?
So basically not sure if this is a general bug or if I need to Firmware Reset since the various OTA update installations etc.
(Unrooted, full stock, latest update)
I can't adjust the Ring volume with the volume rocker, it only allows me to adjust the Media Volume/Chromecast Volume.
I have to goto Sound Settings to make the Ring volume adjustment, weird or not?
Advice anyone ??
If anyone is able to confirm this behaviour or let me know you can adjust the Ring Levels with the rocker as per expected please.
I'll then know I need to Firmware reset and start from scratch.
(Goblins in the system, post OTAs always plagued my time on Sony Androids, so I'm suspecting much the same on this instance).
Thanks in advance to anyone who dares
This isn't a bug, it's a feature in pie. Volume buttons adjust media volume, but you can go into settings by hitting the gear.
You can swap the function using gravity box. Need root with magisk, riru to get edxposed, then gravity box.

What a silly feature to remove.
