I’ve been having an issue with my ringtone volume randomly lowering itself. It doesn’t matter if my master volume is at 100%; most calls will come in silent or extremely low volume. The only way I know how to lower the ringtone volume specifically is through the settings menu, and every time I go into those settings, it is set to low or 0%. Does anyone know of any fix for this issue? I found a few forum posts on this topic on Samsung’s website, but I didn’t see anyone reply with a fix. Thank you in advance!

    Solved!

    I downloaded the Volume Lock app and it works exactly as intended. I realized something about how I use my phone soon afterwards. When I receive a call at full volume, I tend to absent mindedly reduce the volume while my phone is ringing. If I were on the homescreen of my phone, this would reduce the master volume. However, it appears that if i reduce my volume while getting a call, it reduces only the ringtone volume. After that call is recieved, if i try to increase my volume again, my phone shows it at full. But my ringtone volume would still be low. Hope this helps anyone who may have this issue in the future.

    There is an app called Volume Lock that fixed this for a friend of mine. Just set the min volume for ringer to 100.
