[Q] Low Bluetooth volume - EVO Shift 4G General

I've search but to no avail. My bluetooth volume on my Evo Shift is very low. My Moment and other phones were/are loud enough and I'm not using cheap headsets. I use my phone for work and I have a lot of ambient noise that is unavoidable.
Low Volume Hack (apparently) doesn't work, nor does Volume Boost.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thx

Suggestions? Not really. Observations and confirming your problem, yes. Myself having many phones and bt headsets, I have noticed that one that may be loud on one model phone is not necessarily loud on a different one. Sometimes the motorola h790 is so loud on one phone that I cannot turn it down enough. That headset on another phone is quite quiet. I don't know why it is but it is.

None if the current volume hacks will work on these phones with a stock rom at least. The files that they modify are not present, as apparently it uses a different way to control sound output and equalization

Any volume boost app for SYSTEM volume??

I am listening to streaming radio and transferring the sound to my bluetooth headset, but often even with headset, media player, and physical system volume turned up to maximum, it is barely audible.
Is there any app that works on the WM6 Touch/Vogue that will increase the overall system volume, rather than the call-talking volume, so that things like music and streaming radio can be made louder than the default maximum? Boost it higher than the built-in level?
Thanks...
I too have that problem. Anybody have any idea of where or how can you boost your speakerphone audio?
try using this.
Installed the cap on device, what exactly is this as I dont see any new program installed under programs.
That's because it's installed under the Settings tab. It's just a equalizer that can increase certain aspects of the sound

Does this increase the volume using a regular BT headset?
I have the Moto H700 and the volume is low when driving in my truck. I have the volume all the way up on the headset and I sometimes have problems hearing people.
It is fine as long as I'm in a quiet area, but the reason I bought the BT headset is to use it while driving since its safer than holding the phone to my ear.
I've already tried the audiopara.csv file and that increased the speaker but it didn't seem to affect BT.

I too have the same problem w/H700. I have searched high and low and have found there are many with this problem. It seems like it is a WM 6.1 issue.
Is there any possible way to increase the volume to the BT headset? This is a major inconvenience to many and I think it should be addressed by MS. Maybe one of the senior members here have some sort of tweak for this problem.
Thanks.

[Q] Has the focus audio volume issues been sorted out yet?

Tried to ask in another thread but it was kinda off topic.
Last I knew people were playing with diagnostic codes but there was no consensus on what did or did not work.
Audio from the headphone jack and seemly the blue tooth was too quiet.
Is this still an issue?
Is that a no?
In all truth, i don't use the bluetooth. But i just checked my headphones, and they sound OK. My sony earphones work great on the phone. I did d/l that one app... Media Volume Settings and set the volume all the way to 100...that may be what is making mine work better. Hope this helps!
haven't tried Bluetooth...
But when i tried headphones it was waay to loud even at 1.
I don't know how to lower the volume using codes.
You should look through the diagnostics codes thread. It has some stuff about sound changes in there as well as some of the registry tweaks you should look up if you're unhappy enough with it to need to change something.
Funkadube: I did and couldn't seem to get any reliable change. Plus having to redo it everytime I restarted the phone seemed crazy.
I know when I had mine the volume level out of the head phone port was NOT loud enough when hooked to my car radio even though every other phone I've ever had was. You'd have to goto MAX VOLUME to get it very loud and if it was a quiet song or something not at loud (I'm staring at YOU SLACKER RADIO) then you could barely get it listenable.
I then installed Bluetooth module into the car and had the same issue with it also.
I'd wish I knew someone with one I could test IRL to see if its still a problem. I'd love to switch back to WP7...
Is there a way to boost the out-of-call Bluetooth volume on the Samsung Focus? Between builds 7712 and 7720, the Bluetooth volume for voice dial responses, TellMe, and text-to-speech were drastically reduced and now they are so low that I can't hear them with the phone turned all the way up to 30/30. I used to use the phone at 20/30 with my car's Bluetooth without a problem on 7712 and 7390. Has anyone else noticed this change since upgrading to 7720?
I didn't see other people complaining about the volume in the accessories thread.
I also have a bt headset and works fine for me.

I have a Bluetooth headset and it isn't as bad with the headset. But the text-to-speech is still significantly lower than call volume. In fact, the real issue is that there's a huge imbalance between the out-of-call volume and in-call volume with Bluetooth headsets in 7720.
As I mentioned before, when the phone is paired to the car I can turn the phone up to 30/30 from 20/30, but I still have to boost the volume from the car side about 5 levels higher when I'm out-of-a-call to get any decent level of audio out of the phone. The problem then is that when I take a call it is way too loud and I have to rush to turn down the volume on the car side. It makes the use of the feature so inconvenient that I've just turned it off. While I would be perfectly content with Microsoft returning volume levels to what they were since 7004, I'd just as readily use the Samsung Diagnostic app to make the adjustment myself, if it is possible. I'm looking for any remedy at this point.
Text-to-speech was the feature I was looking forward to the most in Mango, and now it's the only feature of the OS I can't use. I can't express how frustrated and disappointed I am that this has happened, and I just can't understand why this change was made. I've seen no reports of anyone ever complaining that the volume was too loud before 7720. It's one thing if I was seeking a feature that wasn't implemented, but it is implemented and it's broken. I just wish there was some solution or recourse to make it usable again.

Low Voice Calls when on a Wired Headset

When I'm using a wired headset to talk to someone on a call the volume is kinda low, I have it set max but its still pretty low, works fine on speaker or BT. Also the same wired headset works very loud when on a movie or music, just low when on a call.
Any fix to this?
Would like to know this aswell... Impossible to hear what people are saying when using the headset
I too find that headset and speaker volume are low. ( comparison to few other phones )
Cannot hear in a noisy environment.
Tried Volume + but does not seem to help .
I experienced this problem as well. Looks like this is a hardware problem (either the pin or the socket).
Try using a different headset - one without a mic. You sould see a significant gain in volume.

Its a hardware issue, swapped my phone for a new one today and dont have the problem anymore.
The service menu edit doesnt really help at all and the volume gain is minimal.
Anyone else having issues like this should request your carrier or samsung for a replacement. It only happens to a handful of phones.
I assume there are two seperate audio chips, the yamaha one for audio and another for voice calls??
Can anyone confirm?

Low headset volume

Hi, i am using wildfire with cm7 installed on it. I have a little problem- headset volume is really low. Yes, i have tried to push volume up, and it is on maximum. Tried different headset- same. Phone speaker is really loud. I can`t say when this happened because i got my headset only on this week(borrowed to sister).
I am looking for solution, can anyone help?

Checked every volume levels which i can found. If it helps to now how quiet it is, if i level volume down to about level 5, it is almost unhearable.
One more question. Coud it be hardware problem? I don`t know, if phone is using the same amplifier circuit to headphones and phone speaker.
Thanks.
I had the same problem a couple of months ago, so I bought Volume Boost. You can try it for free first, and there are a few other software options I haven't tried. Volume Boost works OK for me.
Go to Android Market (sorry, I can't give you the direct link here, since it's not allowed).

Thanks, it makes it a bit louder(i can listen to it now) but still silent.
dude you have done something wrong. also i think that earphone and speakers do not share same hardware.

So thats hardware problem? If so, probably new phone will be cheaper.

Low AUX Volume (ZE551KL)

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but the volume output from the 3.5mm headphone jack is much lower for me than any other phone I've owned. With the volume maxed out, I have to almost crank my car audio volume all the way up to hear songs, and in general, I need to have it at least twice as high as I did with my Galaxy S3 or Droid 4.
I've tried a few volume boosting apps in the Play Store, but none of them made a significant difference. I've also tried messing with every setting in the Audio Manager App, which can make it slightly louder, but also distorts the audio (crackling noises).
I've read that rooting and using a root-specific app of some kind may help the issue, but I don't believe rooting is an option for the ZE551KL yet.
Anyone know a solution that will work?
With earphones working good?

It is less noticeable with headphones, but I haven't used them for an extended period of time. I thought maybe it was my AUX cable, but its the same one I used with my older phones and had no issues.
