I've now done a complete factory reset, re-establishing my account. After some time of going through the setup and getting it up to scratch without installing or making any major changes, I called it from another phone.. Sure enough, it still retained the "quite phone on pickup".. i.e. loud...

I've been testing it for a few times and now it's back to it's bad habits.. Loud volume when horizontal on a table, upon pickup the volume dies down. If in my pocket I can't even hear it ring.. This is a bit troubling. I'll have to try for a complete factory refresh, but I don't hold my...

The phone isn't rooted.. Stock standard with the Optus firmware..

I've got Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus mobile and it's driving me crazy! The ring volume is so low, I can't get any calls as I can't hear the ring tone. I've gone through all the settings that have to do with the ring volume to no avail. If I restart the phone, it comes good for a few hours and then...
