Hi everybody,
I tried a couple of headphones but watching movies I would appreciate a way to boost audio volume. Is there a way to do it on my htc Flyer?
i used the stock one and is loud enough, more than that, i have to keep the volume at the 80% otherwise my ear explode. You mean your device isn't loud enough?
It could be the headphones have a high impedance and are difficult to drive with portable devices -- high-end Sennheiser 600 (300 ohms), for example.
Volume+ works very well on my Desire Z. I haven't tried it on the Flyer, the stock volume level seems fine to me. But Volume+ supposedly should work on any Gingerbread device.
I would increase the volume with caution. A little at a time, until your reach the desire volume level, as not to damage your headphones or your hearing.
Volume+ is a paid app on the Market, but free on the developer's website:

The Monster audio products increase bass performance. Some people (audiophiles) don't like the reproduction, but for in-ear headphones the effect works. The iBeats are semi affordable, but the inline iPhone controls and mic don't work... At least not with my Desire Z... Haven't tried with the Flyer.
Get equalizer from the market.it has many presets and you can save custom presets as well.seriously makes the difference for me.

For those who already have this device:
How's the volume? I know that my previous Android device (ZTE Blade) had quite a weak volume when I use the media player, is the headphone output much better
and louder?
Thanks!
already been shown to have aclose to the loudest speaker of any android phone yet. also youtube video already comparing it to the nexus s speaker. yes, its extremely loud, better than any other except the xperia arc i believe.
The volume is very good through the headphones (much better than my hero). The load speaker is good, but ill never listen to music on it; all phones have poor loudspeakers when it comes to playing music. They just can't handle bass yet.

Speaker i would say moderate in sound level .
Speaker like this its range will be set in the middle and no capacity for extra Bass or Treble .

You can get a boost to the headphone output using PowerAMP too, it has a pre-amp setting in the EQ that makes a modest but noticeable difference to the output volume with headphones.
I just bought my Amaze about a week ago. I have one large complaint... The headphone Jack volume level seems pretty low. The speaker on the amaze is great... Sounds much better than the sensation IMO... I've tried searches & apps and if anything the apps seem to reduce the volume level instead of raise it. I've tried 3 sets of headphones (skullcandy earbuds, skullcandy hesh, and studio beats by Dr dre) and volume is loud but not the ear splitting loud I'm looking for... So if someone could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks guys!
PowerAmp. Best Audio. And Senheiser headset w Mic.

as per title..anyone? mean to say PORTABLE.
I've stopped using gs2 to listen to music long time as the volume is too low and also finding harder to drive my headphones to full. Just only yesterday, my iriver broke and in the market for new player. Thinking whether should be better off with just getting Fiio E6.
yes, we do lack line out through usb (very hopeful that it'll be put on ICS) and the only way to connect is through headphone out which is already amplified.
impressions pls. Thanks.

volume is too low???? either your ears or s2 is done!!!!
think it's both. But yes normally I listen to a high level of volume and gs2 is the one of the lowest sounding device (ie through headphone out) i've ever owned. Not made for each other and made worst by owning couple of higher impedance headphones.
i have been using a FiiO E5 from when i had a n900, i think the volume is too low on the s2 aswell, i think you can get them for less than 20quid now, deffo worth it imo
thanks for that. I'm almost set my heart to buy one of these for later to be paired with sansa clip+ or similar. Probably will be cheaper and better than cowon's or sony x's. It's just curious what will be the effect on sound which is already amplified as HO in gs2.
Try Voodoo Louder from the Market for a 6dB increase, or the app in my sig for more than that. I use Brainwavz M3's with this app & find I only need to have volume at around 30% even in noisy environments (public transport, walking around town).
I've not found the S2 volume to be too bad, but I've used both one of the small "pop up" speakers, as well as a full blown amp, and a car headphone in socket - all absolutely fine.
you've tried Equalizer?, is in the market, is very good. regarding your original question, i use mine with logitech LB21, and it's sounds amazing.
Regards.
with Poweramp I think the sound is louder than the music original application, you can find it on the market
yes i use the E6 - it works fine and the quality is good.
Do not use any of the EQ's etc as suggested here to get it louder. The samsung internal amp can only go so loud without distorting - all u are doing with software boosts is dynamically effecting the music you are listening to. Somewhat like the radio does. It makes all of the instruments in the track as loud as each other by compressing the loudest sounds and lifting the volume of the lower ones. If you really want to get a louder performance from your phone use different headphones - that run on less ohms or use an external portable amp like any of Eii's series.
that's a very good explanation. I've also tried with low impedance headphones but still lacks the "punch". My bad as in OP I used the wrong word "loud" instead of "punch".
so what's the effect of E6 on already amplified Headphone out? just to amplify few dbs on all spectrums??
Rockbox on [email protected] and [email protected] with Voodoo [email protected] did improve the overall sound. Also maybe in that time, my ears started to adjust with the sound coming off GS2. Found similar thread here where ppl's had good experience with amplifer. Ordered Fiio E11 and will post impressions arrive.
Is it possible to boot the audiovolume of my prime
the current max level aint that great.
i have a good headphone philips shs8100
with go loud with my htc legend
but my prime doesn't seem to get the same volume
does someone have the same problem?
yes. volume+ will solve that. its a true speaker boost. it also allows you to boost headphone jack volume and Bluetooth device volume. there's a thread on it in themes and apps section. in there you can go to link to the developers awaited to get it for free. or link to marketplace to purchase. bit this app does truly work. its not fake like the rest of the so called booster apps. those other apps are only glorified equalizers. this gives your true boost in volume. confirmed by using decibel meter before and after the mod. the volume increase is dramatic depending on how high you boost it. Jake sure to follow all instructions and head the warnings. if you go overboard on the boosting you can blow the speakers out..lmfao
I've been using this for months now and very satisfied. the volume is superloud and clear on my prime now.
Anyone else noticing how poor the max volume level is on this phone? I like my music loud in my eyes with headphones and I just can't push it with this phone. Anyone have any fixes to this or use any apps?
Here's a great solution if you like loud music.
FIIO E06 Portable Amplifier

Try Apollo+ app
Using this solved my problem
Or use PowerAmp with custom eq preset.

Turned out my headphones were busted. My new seinhessiers (sp) were just delivered and phone is very loud.
I didn't know you could listen to music through your eyes...

PowerAmp provides a small boost, which makes the puny LG headset just loud enough. Sennheiser speakers generally seem to be louder, though most of them have 32ohms impedance, 16ohms should be louder, theoretically. I like oldskool headphones without silicone plugs, i don´t think the new ones will last one decade like my Sennheiser MX550. I just bough MX400 MS for less than 10 Euros, looking cheaper than the MX550s, they provide the same sound quality and volume.
The LGs headset plug is Apple compatible, without an adapter to switch mic & GND connectors, Samsung and Sony stuff won´t work. Nokia´s needs the adapter to play music w/o distortion, but control buttons will never work.
