Good evening,
I'm looking to change the ringer volume (Or other volume) when I receive or make a phone call. A simple batch that modifies the volume of the ringtone, for example, works. If I indicate 100% the volume goes to 100%.
or if I add the condition indicating that I am making a call the volume is not modified. Is there a problem with the condition indicating when a call is made or received and the volumes change? I had the same problem with Macrodroid and the information I got from the application developer was:

"I can recreate the issue on my Xiaomi device. The issue only seems to happen with call based triggers so I believe there are some weird interactions going on where the phone app might be resetting the volume somehow. If you add a wait before next of 500ms before the set volume call it should work ok. (The issue is not related to the IF statement in any way). I will try to incorporate some fix in the next update where it will auto try and set the volume again after this delay for these trigger types."
Do you have the same problem with “Automate”?

Yes, Automate will probably also require a short Delay between its Call outgoing and Audio volume set block.
This is Android issue, where it reset, or prevent apps from changing, the audio volume exactly when a call is detected. But as said, a short delay usually resolves the problem.

THANKS. Even with a delay of a few seconds the volume is not changed. but if we modify it once hung up... it works but that's no longer the point.

Odd, it should work.

Android version?

Device brand & model?
