NEW ICS leak .238

[master0fursinz]

Experienced this as well today. Attempted to play back a song and it would not play unless i had my bt on. It's also affecting my notification

Update* ive been having sporatic volume issues since installing 238. Sometime ill go to play a video or listen to a song and itll be completely mute regardless of where the volume is set.

Ill have to either make a call or restart the phone to get the volume back.

I have had this issue since the 2233 leak came out.

This is a known hardware design flaw. Some phones have it / some don't. Software will not fix 100%. If you are still within your warranty period you may consider going the CLN route; lots of phone exchanges though. VZW is offering the Nexus as a replacement for those who don't want the hassle. It's a decent phone.

Use SamuriHL's script and revert back to 232 then.

 

[SamuriHL]

You can't. That's not helpful advice.

 

[CBMGGM]

Sorry I meant 235; not 232. My bad. Sam's OP explains this in detail.

 

[CBMGGM]

Sorry SamuriHL

 

[SamuriHL]

Yea you can go back to 235 but I don't think it'd change anything with regard to that particular issue.

Really? Interesting, i never had this problem before installing 238...

I have it occasionally on 232 when using the nav system.

I think it's a matter of time for this issue to manifest itself; I personally don't have any issues with headphones. Also the user has some responsibility as well. If volumes are continually cranked up the electronics will degrade over time. Speakers, etc. I'm not saying that this is the case but from my own experience I have done this.

I'm on 232 and also have this problem.

Been running 238 for a couple days now and the only change I see is a negative one: battery life. Using 235, I could get 40+ hrs of usage at home, now its just over half that. Looking at the usage, it appears that Android OS is now nearly 50% of battery usage. It was always the main battery drain in all ICS builds, but I usually saw 20-30%. Looking at my time in state, I can't get 1.2GHz under 15% even with light usage. Previously, it was 2-3%.

Seems like everyone else is praising the battery life of 238. Wonder why my phone seems to be an exception.

Which problem? The volume loss?

I've had odd volume issues with EVERY OS on this damn thing, including the old GB builds. Never used headphones either, my phone just decides to go silent from time to time. Seems to be related to certain apps notification tones.

My phone has also experienced a more rapid battery drain while on 238; even after a fresh battery calibration. My phone is usually on my desk doing nothing from 8-4:30 and will drop 40%. I would be at 80% battery with 235 with the same conditions.

Only since I've been on 232 have I had problems with losing media sound. It will work then not. Almost like another app has not released hold of it for other use. No new apps have been introduced or used. I'm consistent in that sense.
