Hi guys
As the title says, im after a volume limiter app.
Ive searched high and low and only found threads on how to DISABLE volume limit in some roms etc, im after an app that does it.
Plenty of times ill be rocking to music on my hd2 , or watching a movie with earphones on, (and some movies i watch have a very quiet sound track) and ill be maxing out the volume on it, ....then a call comes in and the ringtone BLASTS into my earphones & blows my ears off!
any suggestions most appriecated (preferably short of getting an iphone)

I have experienced a weak sound during listening music thru audio manager. I wonder if there is any way like modifying Audiopara3.csv in Touch Diamond. Please help.
Can't say the same really. I've been using the HTC bluetooth headset with no volume issues. Haven't yet tried the supplied wired headset.
Same question here... The sound on my Rose is extremely weak as well, e.g. it is impossible to listen to podcasts in a train. Is there no way to change this ??
Just a thought, though I'm sure that this is obvious enough so that you guys probably already tried it: turn up the system volume with the two buttons on the left side of the device.

i have the same problem over here, i have been told that this could have to do with european regulations. Something with the amount of decibels allowed.
There is a audio boost option in the menu but with a bluetooth headset this option does not work.
If there is a solution to this problem i would be happy to learn about it
Does it sound any better using media player? I think media player has a better sound but audio manager has an equaliser. Try using that to boost the sound.
AVE...
Use Pocket Player.
While using select: Menu>More>Options>Advanced and check "Use and set device volume". Then press on the side of Rose Volume Down button once and Volume Up button to max volume. This will double max volume.
BTW, for podcasts and audiobooks Pocket Player is the best, because it can autoresume last played file to exact point. I use it all the time because all my audiobooks are chopped into 30 minutes long MP3's. Neither AudioManager nor WMP can do it.
My solution was to change the profile to Outdoors and then edit the volume in this profile to loud. It works a lot better.
However I have Pocket Player installed and Urgon's solution works like a charm. Thanks man !
During music play, has anyone else noticed small amount of static when changing volume. This happens to me particularly when increasing the volume control. However, it is very inconsistent. When I say static, I mean there is a volume increase (or decrease) with some amount of "other" sound added in. This was not something I noticed with my ipod touch and was just curious if anyone else has this or it's a hardware or software issue.
Do you see when playing music through the speaker only, or with earphones as well?
Speaker is not clear enough to hear if there is any audible noise during volume increase or decrease. . . also hear it when using other music players such as cubed. Also, I was listening through my earphones to Avatar and even though the audio is very clear, when increasing and decreasing the volume I still hear what I guess is better described as a small pop instead of static. That might be a better description for the music noise as well.
Static, crackle, pop
I've been listening to audio books on my Vibrant lately and I've noticed this happening a lot. I've heard it through headphones and I have even heard popping / crackling on the speaker when it plays notification sounds.
Did this turn out to be a defect or is it an issue that everyone has occassionally but just ignores?
Thanks
Does this happen when using the on-screen volume control in the music app or only the rocker button?
Mine will actually crackle even when I'm not touching it.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yes mine too. It will sporadically "skip" in all music players whether I'm using headphones or not.
Vibrant vibrating nicely now,Kthx!
So I've been trying to figure out why it is that my Touch Pro 2 which I am just now getting into using as a music player (late bloomer I know) has such a LOW volume level with the 3.5mm headphones (using the mini-usb adapter that it CAME with). It seems that the volume level is only absurdly low on items played with HTC Music and Windows Media Player. Other apps I have tried, such as nanoGroove and ICYGroove seem to not have this volume level issue, meaning that it's loud like I want it to be without distorting to nonrecognition.
I've tried hacks and other apps that claim to make a big difference, such as Advanced Configuration's ability to turn on the HTC bass/treble/3D sound boost, which ends up with major distortion. And "Audio Booster" which does make some improvement on HTC Music but not nearly to the level that I hear music from nanoGroove and ICYGroove on.
So the question at this point I guess is, is there any way to get around this or safely and sanely amplify the volume level for music from mp3s? nanoGroove and ICYGroove are both kind of questionable because the sound data comes from an external source (the internet) so I have no idea if they run it through some level amplifier to begin with and that's why it sounds better, or if it's the program itself that is piping it through the sound system differently.
The only other alternative I can think of at this point would be to re-encode my mp3's with a higher volume level, but given my diverse music tastes and frequency of shifts from one artist/genre to another that would end up having to re-encode pretty much everything on a regular basis which I would really rather not have to do. Not to mention having "phone versions" of all my music..
If anyone can recommend something that would either clear this up so it made sense, or just replace the HTC Music/Windows music players in general with something that does not have this problem or an easy and sane workaround, that would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks!

I got the Optimus V at the recent Cyber Monday deal at Virgin Mobile - for one major purpose - to use it as an mp3 player for my car. I have not activated the phone, do not plan to, have wifi on it only.
The built-in speaker on it is pretty loud, so I am surprised that the headphone volume is very low. I have to turn my car volume all the way up to max to hear anything (driving highway).
I wonder if LG turned the volume low to prevent people from killing their ear-drums. Is there any solution out there without having to activate the phone and install alternate rom on it? I have turned the volume in settings all the way high, and I have Pandora, and I have set the audio setting to high on Pandora preferences.
Pls. let me know if my objective cannot be achieved without rooting and installing a custom ROM, I would prefer not to activate this phone.
Thanks for any help.
Shameless bump...I have Volume Control+ which does not help at all.
you hear low sound in headphone ?
what are you connecting it to?
Yes, I have a low volume on the headphone too. I connect it to the aux port on the car radio using a regular Stereo Jack. My Car radio is a Pioneer system, which has great sound with other mp3 players.
So ive noticed this since ive gotten my Razr. I was hoping it would be fixed in the last update but it wasnt.
Ive kinda put it in the back of my head till just now.
Whenever I make/receive a phone call (Vz number or google voice) the call volume is automatically at 100% LOUD. Not terrible when im holding the phone to my head, but what just pissed me off, is that i have my headphones in and called my voice mail. FULL BLAST in my ears
All previous phones ive had will remember the last set volume and keep it at that for the next incoming/outgoing call.
Ive looked thru the settings and it looks like you can only change the volume for: ringtone, media, alarm, and notification. Am i missing something or are a lot of others having this problem?

I am using a very sensitive / efficient IEMs, Westone UM3Xs; SPL rated 124dB/mW. In other word, at 1mW of power, it can produce listening experience during F1 starting grid from grandstand seat!.
I am shocked and very surprised when "Low battery" notification blasts off while listening music or podcasts. For normal listening, I set the volume LESS than 50%, and MINIMUM level during voice call.
I wish we can do separate volume levels for headphone output.
Thank you.
Anyone else have this issue?
I can control the volume separately, (normally you need the device connected if your using the side buttons) but you can change BT, ear, headphone, etc.
... and the volume change DOES persist.
So perhaps this is something with your config.
