Have googled and searched here and while I can find some volume tweaks, I have found nothing that works with the sprint S4. My hearing sucks and even with hearing aids it is sometimes a stretch.
Does anyone know of any program or mod that will actually work on the rear speaker? Viper for Android appears to only work on headphones or audio output?
Thanks in advance
Thanks to jovy23 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293133 ...it increases stock volume, if you cant hear it after this you have a problem...lol...
Just flash in recovery

You could always try downloading the galaxy tuner and adjusting the volume through it. You must be rooted though...

I don't use any of the stock ringers anyway, so I just modded the gain of the MP3's I use for ringers before I sent them to the phone. I also use the Voodoo sound app to get the gain up a little on the headphone jack.

I guess we're just more deaf than you are. For fun I listen to death metal for long periods on high volume and shoot shotguns, high powered rifles, etc... My hearing is pretty well screwed.

Every day I work iexpose my self to 100dbs or greater for extended period of time. My personal car reaches 172dbs (173dbs with voodoo sound) (world record is 178dbs). If you haven't figured it out I do mobil electronics. I'm also no stranger to high powered fire arms.
Its not long till I'm fully deaf

I hear ya man (pun intended).... I also played in a machine shop on the weekends when I was a kid which I'm sure didn't help. I have no idea how many dbs my car puts out but I'm sure it's no where near that. Wonder if there's an app for that...
Well, Well, Well... This really is a swiss army phone. Just installed a free DB meter.

I wonder if it actually works? I'll have to run it side by side with a real mic

My mom had this same problem. I found a solution tho. Somehow when she connected her Bluetooth the phone rings through the front speaker instead of the speakerphone speaker so I'm assuming increasing the volume of a ringtone may kill your speaker. Anyway if you disconnect Bluetooth and restart the phone the ringtones worked flawlessly
Mind you she began having the problem after the froyo update but today she said she updater something last night now she has low volume again. Hope this helps somebody
Has any body noticed that the bootup sound is very low. I can hardly hear it on stock rom. Is it normal or it is only my problem? And does rooting causes this problem.
Thanks and regards

Hi I currently have Overcome ROM which has a different bootup but when I first got my tab the bootup sounded pretty loud, even after rooting it. btw I have GT-P7510 and not 7500
TBH, I didn't even know there was a bootup sound. :S

Finally I've found a solution for this problem. They have separated. System volume adjuster and the media volume adjuster( they were one thing on gingerbread ). So go to settings / volume and increase the system volume

Has anyone used this?
I started it up the other night, plugged in my headphones and went through the steps.
Next thing I know, my stock Music app won't produce any sound through any sort of output. I can still get sound from Pandora and other things.
I finally realized that I had to turn off Adapt Sound.
I'll be honest, I'm not even sure what it is or what it does.
Not everyone hears the same as everyone else one ear could hear differently than the ear on the opposite side of said persons head and "adapt sound" is the attempt to solve this issue. I however flashed a kernel with beats support then the beats mod and I take care of the settings that way for awesome sound.

That is exactly what im looking for. Thought i could "tweak" the system sound by running the adapt sound and lying to it telling the phone that i didnt hear the super high beeps, with the hopes it would turn those frequencies up. But that did not go as planned, Which kernel did you flash? In the meantime I'm reading through all the dif kernels.

Check out the ViPER4Android sound mod, simple installation and nothing to do through recovery. It has options to increased max volume level for headphones, speaker, and bluetooth. And not only that, there are dozens and dozens of other options to tweak the sound of your device. Plus in the thread there are a bunch of prepare sound profiles that tell you what to set all the settings to for various listening purposes!

Hallo,
I would like to make a simple question...
Tried 2 custom 4.4 Roms on my LG G2 (droidkangs and mahdis) and in both versions I noticed the same problem...
The speaker sound (even though loud) is of VERY bad quality when playing deeper sounds like basses!
In stock Roms the sound (same MP3) is crystallclear... Tried many settings in DSP manager... Tried almost everything I found in iNet, but I am going back to stock based Roms as on max volume its like my speaker is broken :/ (when I use headphones or BT headset I don't have that issue)
Could any1 please tell me what the reason for this problem is?? Is it normal that the sound quality from speaker is so much worse than the stock versions??
And can this be fixed?
Please, if some1 knows the answer just give me the info as I rly don't want to go back to stock Rom :/
Thank you!
I have the same problem on Cyanogenmod 11 and Paranoid .
CyanogenMod the sound is pretty low, on Mahdi's pretty high. Try equalizer settings on those ROMs. It might require a tweak to your liking.

Same here. Running CM11 and speaker quility cracks up when it gets loud. I tried messing with Viper, but alas, no improvement. Don't think there's a fix yet though..

Mahdi has same issue if you max sound... I think that all the 4.4 roms have this problem so flashing other customs won't help.
i never use the speaker because i thought it was terrible to begin with but i just tested it out and and mine does not get very loud but i use headphones 99.999.9999999999999 percent of the time but it is definately a bug but other than this bug i really havent had anyother problems
Getting the same poor phone call sound quality d803 carbon
The S5 (like all Samsungs) have really low volume output. It just is not that great of quality. Anyone have any idea or workaround on how to actually boost the volume output from the headphone jack?
Haven't noticed that, seems annoying. Did you try the volume booster apps at Google play?

Well coming from an iphone, the volume sucks. Yes I did, didn't make that great of a difference.
