I just got my TB about a week ago, And the volume is VERY low compared to my Incredible. Is there a kernel that will boost my volume or an app or something? I'm using Das Bamf at the moment. I can barely hear my ringtone unless its right next to me.
No one else has this problem and found a solution? :|
volume rocker is on the right of the phone. Turn it up. =]
^_^_^
if ur das bamf rom is the gingerbread version download volume+ works amazing. this will make ur volume much louder. but only works on gingerbread not froyo.

I have the 2.1 ROM installed, and when the phone is in my pocket (or the light sensor is covered up), the phone rings at the loudest volume. This is VERY annoying as it scares me and is embarrassing when I am around people. I'm using the "old phone" ringtone.
Is anyone else experiencing this? I have found no toggle anywhere!
Thanks for any help.
Did you try disabling the "Quiet ring on pickup" setting?
I have it currently disabled- I re-enabled it and it still rings UBER loud. I also just flashed to another 2.1 ROM and it is still doing it. I switched ringtones to "Standard 4" amongst others, and they all ring VERY loud. It starts off at the desired volume, but increases significantly until the 3rd ring where it is max volume. If the phone is just sitting on my desk, it rings at the desired volume constantly, but if i cover up the light sensor (any time during the ringing) it quickly goes to the loudest volume. This is getting to be a HUGE problem as this is my work phone and I can't miss calls by not feeling it vibrate, but can't have it ringing at loud volumes in the office!
^ I have the exact same problem! No matter what I have the ring volume set at, it starts out quiet but blasts to full volume. Scares the crap out of me every time!!
I'm at my wits end, this is really annoying! Does anyone know how to resolve this??

Which 2.1 ROM are you using? I'm using the original "leaked" one that doesn't allow rooting and am having the same issue.
I was using the first leaked ROM, and I thought it might be the ROM, so I switched to the "HTC 2.1 Release Candidate (AKA OTA) Leak Rom." Same deal with that one. I might try another one, just in hopes of solving this problem!
Same issue here with the 2.1 HTC OTA one.
I am having this problem too and it is really annoying.
I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the proximity sensor on the phone. However, I don't see a way to disable the volume increase based on that. Perhaps its tied into rosie, since the proximity sensor seems exclusive to HTC.
Saw in another forum that it is a bug in 2.1. I tried the diasble quiet on pickup and that didn't work. Now using Smart Volume Free from the market and that locks in the volume I want. I still was really looking forward to the volume decreasing when I picked it up, not sure if this will help get around it but only solution was Smart Volume for me.
I tried this program, praying that it would work, but the "locked" ring volume is lagged. The phone rings at the loudest ring volume a few times before the "locked" volume takes effect. I guess it's better than full volume the entire time.
bump!! Anyone have a fix for this??
I was just thinking about looking for this thread again and see if anyone found a solution. I am rooted 2.1 and still have this problem.Is there a program or hack to fix this? I just keep my phone on vibrate most of the time because of this.
I downloaded some "Smart Volume" app or something that "locks" the volume, however, it takes a few seconds to kick in after the phone starts ringing. It will ring SUPER loud for 1 or 2 rings then quiet down when the app limits it.
I've resorted to carrying my phone in my pocket when only absolutely necessary and also answering or silencing it VERY quickly once it starts ringing.
SUCCESS! I installed the latest leak (v3) and the issue went away!!!!

Recently i installed VR12 on my phone and i love this ROM except for one MAJOR flaw for me - my in-call volume is PATHETIC!!!! I have tried everything i can think of (disabling keypad tones, updating the radio, yes, i have set the volume with the volume button on the phone to max) but i really STRUGGLE to hear much in a noisy enviroment.
When i go back to VR6.1 - the volume is perfect... SO PLEAAAAAASE SOMEONE - ANYONE - help me!!!

Is there any way to modify the software on the ThunderBolt to allow for an increased volume limit that would make the speaker louder for low volume apps and maybe even have a hack to enable SRS to be always on, since its currently limited to just the Music/Video/Gallery app
I listen to Sirius XM and some other streaming apps at work and my volume is unsatisfactory compared to what i had with my Droid Incredible, and seeing how we have a larger speaker with SRS capabilities, I think this would be handy for ThunderBolt owners if we could somehow get a hack for this.
+1
For music and stuff i use Power amp which has a built in eq and a volume booster.
But as far as streaming and anything that you can't use power amp for I also think our phones could/should be louder.
I have a hard time hearing people during phone calls and am constantly holding the vol up button trying to make it louder. I have heard people complain about theirs being to loud but can't remember which rom thread I read it in.
Is this even possible to make our phones speakers louder?
While searching for a fix I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047241
I just dl it and have yet to install it but thought you might b interested. Lemme know your thoughts about it and if it helps.
I will do the same as soon as I get my crying baby to sleep
I think the thunderbolt volume and vibrate is very weak. When I set the ringer on low I can hardly here it. When I set it at full volume it doesn't seem loud enough, especially when driving. Is there any way to improve this?

In call and speakerphone volume are far too quiet for me also, adyrenlyn's kernel helped but was unstable on my phone and I can't find the right place to edit the volume myself for imoseyon's kernel
Running TSM pool party, I have great volume while on a call and listening to music through speaker. The only time my volume sucks is with ringtones, though volume bar is maxed. Any way I can make it louder?
Device Info:
TSM Pool Party 1.5, adrenaline 12
if you toggle the volume all the way down then back up to max its still low?
Yeah. I've tried different ringtones and nothing seems to fix it. I wonder if it's some correlation with deep sleep?
Device Info:
TSM Pool Party 1.5, jt's 3 button recovery fix kernel, Adrenaline 12
try glitch...my call and ringtone vol. is plenty loud. but I thought that was fixed in jt's kernel aswell?

Excuse me for being a noob....
But i just wanted to clarify an issue ive seen in JB roms.
One the volume for headset is not that high...
Second the media volume does not increase incrementally ... even in the volume rocker as it is displayed... i think it stays at max 60%
Is this an issue with all JB roms???
i tried searching the forums but did not get an answer. and why is it that ICS roms sound better with Headphones than JB roms?
Pls Help

if u use 'Siyah or Dorimanx' kernel's then U can boost ur head phone volume thro 'Xtweak' app
When I played music with Poweramp (I have DVC enabled), the problem fixed temporarily.
It's known issue in CM10, nothing to worry about.
If the volume rocker is like this:
|-------O____|
and above, then it's 100%.
I can't vouch for JB but I am on ICS with CM9 and found that headphone volume was poor, I downloaded an app called 'Voodoo LOUDER' which allows you to increase the volume slightly, you need to be rooted but it was worth every penny
