I found a strange issue with my shift. I was wondering why the ringer volume didn't seem to have an effect. Turns out that it does, as long as the shift is not in the case. I purchase the shell/holster combo from Sprint and found that if the phone was in the holster the ringer was full loud plus virbrate when the volume was set to anything other than silent. I was able to reproduce this out of the holster by holding my thumb firmly over the area between the speaker grill and the proximity sensor. I have not been able to definitively say that it is the proximity sensor but it happens when there is an obstruction (thumb/case) right in that area. It does not happen in when in a soft case.
Any ideas what could be causing this? I'm still trying to pinpoint an exact combination but it is really annoying to be always full loud.
