Hey guys,
I am having weird sound issues with my new P10.
When setting ringer volume to certain level, it seems to only work with the ringer when somebody calls.
It does not have an influence on WhatsApp, Gmail, text messages etc. These do sound a LOT louder.
So, I can control call ringer just fine, but basically cannot control the volume for app notifications. I also tried to lower the volume for alarm, media etc, but these apps seem to be connected with the ringer volume slider (which is of course what one would expect) but they are much louder that the call ringer.
This is my first Huawei phone so I was hoping to find some setting for this, but no luck. This is really annoying. If I do not want Gmail notifications etc to be loud, I need to lower the ringer volume to minimum, but then I have issues to hear when someone calls
Any idea what is going on?

I have exactly the same issues, also in video call in Whatsapp the call volume is very loud and i can't get it lower.
Still searching for an solution.......
If i find one i will let you know.
P10 Plus
The P10 Plus has a same issue.
Yep, it looks like notifications sounds are not only too loud but also still present when sound is "muted"
as a temporary workaround I reduced the volume of the notifications by editing the notification files on my pc. but I am really hoping that Huawei is going to fix this soon.
sound settings do not affect videocalling with facebook messenger on my P10.

I was wondering if anyone had noticed certain apps not respecting the volume set for notifications.
Under settings, Sound settings, Volume, I have my Ringtone volume at maximum, my Alarm volume at maximum, my Media volume at 0, my Notification volume at 50% and "Use incoming call volume for notifications" unchecked.
Most notifications respect the volume level set for Notifications, but some, Facebook and Chrome-to-Phone, do not. They seem to use the Ringtone volume level to play their notifications, which tend to scare me out of my seat when they go off. Anyone else notice this problem?
I'm on Froyo FRF91.
Thanks
Dunno about Facebook (I have that silent) by Chrome2Phone blares out at twice the volume anyone thought possible.
Yes, the same happens to me. I also have my ringtone volume at maximum and my notification volume much lower. It's very irritating.
Here is an issue about it in the projects issue-tracker. Please star it.

Starred. Glad to know that it wasn't just a problem on my phone and that I wasn't missing something obvious.
has anyone had any problems with the ringtone volumne on the HD7, and if so were you able to increase the volumne
There is a problem in that the volume is quite low. The way I got around it was to put on my own ringtones, which I recorded at a higher volume, using chevron ringtone manager. Did the same for some alerts and alarms and now I can hear my phone in nearly all noisy environments.
Hi,
I have the same problems. Mine is very quiet, barely audible. The rest is OK. Maybe there is software problem but I do not thing so. After change ROM nothing has improved.
I've tried chevron but it doesnt work. i cant get ringtones
Ive noticed since I got my X on Monday that randomly my notification/ringer won't make any sounds. Even if I have it set to the loudest possible setting. When I choose the volume thru the volume buttons the sound when raising or lowering doesnt always work either. I have all the settings correct to make sounds. Could this be a Lollipop thing, or is it my X? Has anyone else had this happen?
Yeah, it's been happening with my device aswell.. no idea what could be the reason, either the Lollipop update or some conflicts with moto apps perhaps? Wish I could fix it.
Bumping this in case someone finds a solution!
I found that if I use the volume buttons to change volumes it goes silent. So I just adjust the volume in the settings/sound to change volume.
I've noticed that the volume takes a step down in certain apps and situations, for instance: whenever I get a notification from whatsapp with the screen both on/off, the volume is rock solid.. but whenever a notification comes through facebook messenger with screen off, the volume is ABSOLUTELY low; meanwhile, with the screen on the volume is fine with both of them. SMS, Youtube and Email notifications are fine aswell (for now).
EDIT: well, it happens randomly even when ringing from a phone call even after adjusting from the settings and not the volume rockers. Gosh, Moto should fix this one asap.
If we had a LED I wouldn't care. I have to keep turning my screen on to see if I have a text msg
Hello,
I can't manage to lower the volume of video calls (I tried whatsapp and messenger so far).
It is very very loud.
I tried lowering media volume and calls volume but nothing happens.
Can you help me? It's very annoying I can't do video calls with such high volume
I have the same problem on Skype. Only solution is using a headset. But call using speaker is way too loud.
No one else affected???
Have same problem w/ hangouts voice calls, the minimum volume is not low enough. Its far better over wifi calling where the minimum speaker output is capable of being much lower.
same problem with Signal when on speakerphone. Adjusting volume doesn't seem to affect the speakerphone volume, or at least it does not go very low. My workaround is to disable speakerphone in the app and turn volume up.
hey guys just got my xperia 1 ii not long ago, everything went well except that after updating to android 11,
my incoming call ringtone has reduced significantly. I thought my speaker got problem but the thing is , media,alarm and even message notification sound remain loud but my incoming call ringtone has becoming alot softer so it should not be speaker problem right?
i tried downloading a 3rd party app for ringtone, the ringtones when played on the app itself were loud but once i set one of them as my phone call ringtone, the volume reduced!
i suspect is software problem but cant find a setting that would fix it. Maybe a certain app that i installed caused it but i have no idea which. Any ideas what could it be? factory reset would be my last solution but i hope it can be fixed without a reset since i have set everything nicely on the phone.
Hi try this app, This might work for you.
It will increase ringtone volume to 100% before receiving normal call.
P.S tested on galaxy devices.
