Speaker volume (quiet then loud)

[mrrogers1]

Just wanted to check in and confirm I am experiencing the same hi/low volume on rings. It's weird and damn annoying.

No love on this?

I have to report that since I ditched that crap a-$-$ stock rom and radio I having had this issue again. That is with Mighty, Juicy or NRG Roms... Might have just been a bug with the stock rom... much like that annoying behavior sometimes when you click start then settings and then it can't decide what settings main menu to put you into. *I can't beleive the quirks that were left in place on the factory rom. If we all weren't so stunned with the display and shear performance of our TP2's, we probably would have complained more about them.

According to this: http://blogs.msdn.com/medmedia/archi...mentation.aspx

Why this would affect ringer volume doesn't make much sense, but if it does, it does! This attenuation registry key is mainly for "in-call" volume, so that seems to explain why it doesn't help with the fade-in for other sounds.

Jeez.

Anybody else had any luck figuring out how to disable this?

Man I swear it's crap like this that makes people hate Windows Mobile. This is something Microsoft NEVER planned and it seems to frustrate way more people than make people's lives easier. And can you imagine an average user tackling this?? Impossible! This is completely some dumb idea by some random dumb programmer at HTC who didn't like his ring-tone or media player starting out at normal volume.

And This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things. Microsoft is limiting what OEMs (and us) can do to Windows Phone 7 Series exactly for little modified nuances like this. Nobody can screw up the user experience if they won't let them. But at the same time, nobody can enhance it either.

Sorry for the rant, but these stupid little tiny issues that should just be a setting with an "on/off' switch really bug me.
