Huge volume jumps when adjust volume in call? - Vibrant General

I am on the latest Trigger (Rom) and have had the same problem since build 12.
Basically my in-call volume (only while in call) has these massive jumps when adjusting the volume.
It sounds the like the following (highest to lowest) while using headset.
- Too low, too low, too low, Loud, Too loud, Ear Shattering +
The red flag, since build 12 was a crackling sound is heard where the headphones are inserted.
I have tried different Roms and this is where I am most happy. I posted in the the forum section with no real luck.
I tried the paid version of Voodoo sound and it adjusted the music volume but it seemed no changes were made to in call sound.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The only thing I can think of is if you are holding the volume button then it will fly to min or max. Try single pressing the volume up or down. Just a thought.

Yeah, I noticed the same problem today while on the phone. Didn't really think too much of it, but its def a rom problem if you are also having the issue on redux.

Earpiece volume

I just got it and noticed the earpiece volume is still low even with the volume turned all the way up.
Is there a setting I missed or maybe a registry fix?
Any help would be appreciated
HTC HD2
OS 5.2
MANILLA 2.5.2
ROM 2.13
RADIO 2.10
Don't mean to offend you. I had the same issue but was more of a user issue. I kept increasing the volume not paying attention that I was adjusting the ring volume and not the system volume.
if that doesnt work you may need to return it. My friends HD2 had low speaker volume and low earpiece volume. As much as we tried, we couldn't get it to go.
N1M1TZ - No offense taken, I only adjusted the volume during a call and at max it is still quiet.
I checked the settings/sounds, no adjustment for the earpiece just the ringer and the system sounds.
marduk79 - after doing a little digging I have found that this is a common problem with this particular batch of phones.
The first batch came out and the volume was set way to high that it was actually blowing out the earpiece.
I think I may have found a solution, if it works I will post it.
Thanks for the assist.
So what is the solution... My first one had sweet loud ear piece volume. But alas, the speaker blew. My replacement is alright, but I want it to be a tad bit higher... Lots of years of loud punk rock have made me slightly def I think...
Anyone know if there is a cab or registry tweak or something that will make the volume louder in the ear piece speaker?

How low? Like so low you couldn't hear it, or just low enough to be annoying? Basically my first HD2 was nice and loud. The new one is about 3 bars lower sounding turned all the way up... Which annoys me because I know the other one was louder and it's hard to hear people if I'm in an environment with a lot of background noise.
I feel like if I tried to take it in to get a replacement they would think I was nuts.
headphone and phone speaker too low
I too beleive the headphone volume is way too low, when listening to music or taking a call on the headphones it is barely loud enough too hear if there is any background noise such as traffic or conversations going on nearby. I have the volume about 75% when listening to talk radio stations, on my headset, no background noise present and it is at normal listening level. So if there is background noise, I need 100% for it to be loud enough to hear clearly. The phone speaker is not much better, when listening to calls on speakerphone the percentages are about the same for equvilent listening circumstances. I have tried "AudioPara3 TMO" and notice little or no difference in sound. Does anyone know of anything that will increase the maximum volume level for both speakerphone and headphones?
I'd like to know if there is any registry hack to increase the line out volume as well. My line out volume is very low, I have to put it to about 50 percent to match what would be the 20-30 percent level of my old HTC Touch (Touch 1 to HD2 - quite an upgrade, eh?? )

Any apps/hacks that allow you to adjust in headset volume while in call?

A common issue I have had for a while is volume issues with various Roms.
Some roms have too low volume, sporatic volume issues and my current rom has a volume that just too high.
Is there any apps/hacks that can allow me how my phone reacts to in call volumes while on my headset?
Voodoo Controll, works great for adjusting media volume but not in call volume.
Thanks in advance.
I may just have to put something in my earbuds to mute the sound.
I am using my plantronic 975 and think that the volume is too low too!
Really want to adjust it

You hit the nail right on the head with this one. The only way to know how best to help you, is to know what version of Android you're running around with; then the tweaked ROM so we have a better idea.
There are a couple things you can do to adjust the incoming volume, with the most obvious using the volume while on the call, but you can also dive into the settings in the ROM itself to see if it has it's own individual tweak. Some ROMs come with an app to adjust it as well as you've seen so it's just a matter of finding that sweet spot. Keep in mind that you may have different settings for BT, headphones, speaker and regular ol' nothing.
Give us a little more info on your frustration, and I bet there's someone who's fixed the problem.

Loud In-call Volume

Why is it that when I flash an Android Rom on my HTC HD2 the in call Volume is way too loud.
I turn down to it's minimum volume but it's just ear bleeding loud.
Can this be fixed?
I had this issue too, there's no fix that I know of, just a first aid thing - when your volume is louf on minimum, put it to maximum (at that time) and then get it back on minimum, it should help. Sometimes it doesn't though.
But for me, after a while the problem disappeared. Maybe a ROM update?

be fortunate yours is loud because mine is way too low in most cases i have to use my speaker phone to talk to ppl
I have tried turning up volume & down again & that didn't fix the problem & so i changed Roms's & it does it on all of them.
Surely there must be a fix for this problem?

Speakerphone volume issues

Has anyone had a problem with the speakerphone volumes under kitkat?
I seem to have a mixed bag of proper volume and then sometimes (mostly really) very low volume, despite all volume settings being put to maximum.
I also use an app called Auto Speaker (which auto switches speaker on if proximity sensor detects you're not near) this does work as expected i.e phone switches to speaker and back to normal, but still has the same volume issues if I make a call with this app disabled.
Sometimed it happen to me. The max volume is too low, i use to low (yes low) the volume and high it again to restore the audio. It is a very bad bug. Hope Motorola will solve it sono.

Same here, some apps/games the sound is barely audible when set to max both in game and on the handset yet if I load another app play music or watch YouTube its too loud.
Also the volume increments curve too dramatically towards max volume, max is loud but a click or 2 down and it sounds like the volume has been reduced by half.
I didn't give it much thought until now but I might mention it on the Motorola forums so they cab pass it on to the Moto G developers.
I have the same problem . Always have to restart the phone to fix it but the problem automatically returns after .
Ezarc : they responded to you ?
Sorry for my bad english

sound on RR/LOS-based

Does anybody else have problems with the volume in those roms? Now that the DAC is fixed, there is no distortion. However I find the volume levels uneven and also extremely loud. Sure, it's nice to see that the DAC can push the volume so high but my ears always hurt when listening to music on those roms.
Did anyone find a way to tweak the volume or make the sound be more soft like in stock roms? If so, please share your experience thanks
We have an existing thread for the sound fix here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/sound-fix-los-los-base-roms-t3587373
Edit: Looks like the latest version, 4.2, has some volume fixes.
you can turn down the volume with the volume rocker ;P

I know what the OP is talking about.... Even having the volume rocker at the very first click up, and I'm on 30 step volume, the notifications are still really loud.
V4a can turn down the gain of the over-all system...But then the music is a little low.
I'm living with it, as I prefer using RR/LOs over stock. I also have music software and have went in and turned down my main notification tone and ringtone so they are usable on my A7.
