Hey guys
does any of you know if there is a way to reduce the loudness of the speaker? cause when im phoning via speaker it is too loud eventhough i set the volume to a minimum.
Have you tried lowering the volume with the volume key when you are in call. I think it works.

Yeah sorry that'S what i meant by "set to a minimum"
Well the only things I can thing of is partially covering the speaker with your hand while holding it, or even covering part of it with some sticky tape. I haven't heard of or seen an app which could lower the volume below minimum.

it sounds like handset volume is too low on my phone but i'm still not sure yet since i've only had the phone for 2 days. it's definitely lower than the htc incredible's handset volume by a decent amount. there is also a very slight hiss but i think that's normal.
i bought the optimus t on ebay so i won't be able to take it to t-mobile and get it exchanged for a new one. i've been trying to search for a root solution to make it louder but i can't find anything. the one solution i have found was only for samsung android phones. any ideas on what i should/could do?
You mean the earpiece volume while on call or the speaker phone ergo the ringer?
Both are realised thru the same speaker. While the earpiece volume is pretty high, the quality leaves a lot to be desired. Its a bit shrill and piercing. Strangely enuf the same speaker performs very nicely for music playback!
You sure you maxed out the volumes?
i mean the phone's earpiece. i have no problem with any of the other volume levels and i have made sure i maxed out the volume for everything and then i'm going to see if they are too loud after a couple of days and adjust them accordingly.
I noticed when I plug in my headphones in my car (to ye old cassette adapter), the volume goes down to around 60% or so. Raise it up to 100%, unplug & plug the headphones back in & it lowers again.
Anyone know if there is a setting somewhere I'm not aware of?
Just a guess..but that's probably a feature to save your eardrums.

pretty sure this is right
Darn you 'features' for causing me extra steps!!
This annoys me too. I need the volume at 100% for it to sound decent in my car. And where I dock it, the volume keys are face down so it's a hassle to do.
I smiled the first time I saw the "listening at high volumes can damage your hearing" warning that appears when raising the volume to 90-100%.

Nevermind I guess it doesn't
Nobody has figured out how to disable this yet?
When I plugin external speakers, the volume automatically lowers itself down. I raise it up to 15... it lowers it back down to 10 automatically with a pop-up about listening to music too loud. Wtf.

I think jkay volume lock does that
My volume isn't as loud as my previous phones.
Could it just be my phone?
Anyone suggest an apk that is safe to use without hurting the speaker.

Might be your speakers/headphones.
I've noticed that depending on what headphones I use, the volume is different.
On my phone, using earbuds, I have to keep the volume quite low actually. if its even 50% its too loud for my ears.

Been on CM10.1 for about 3 weeks now, the rear speaker volume is so low it's actually louder to just turn the ear speaker up.
Is there a solution to this in an option I'm not seeing?

I'm not sure, but if you flash pegasus and use stweaks you can adjust it very easily in there.
I'm same place man. I think I'm going to flash back to tw for a little bit. Although TW is tight .

Yesterday the speaker was working extremely well. Even had to turn down the volume to the middle. Today, there is very little volume even when set to the highest and the tone is very scratchy. All was well yesterday and usable yet to day it is not even loud enough to hear. I made no other adjustment yesterday except for turning on the speaker which turned out to be great and what I was looking for since at my age, I find it hard to read the messages.
What is the fix or what adjustments do I make to get this back on track?
HELP!
Later today, the ZW2 volume and speaker came back to normal.
Anyone know why this happened and in the future when the issue repeats, it can then be solved.
You can change volume of speaker by press volume up and down on your phone when you are talking with someone by speaker of zenwatch 2.
Thanks for the reply but what is going on is that the Sound changes as described in my original post without adjusting the phone volume.
In the last two days it has been great and clear with a change to crackly and soft to only return again back to great and again today back to bad.
Do I have a defect in my ZW2, is it with the recent update, or is it a settings that can be adjusted.
Love the read out for the phone and want it to stay in the "Great" mode

This does not work for music. Any thoughts on that?
What is strange is that sometimes the sound is fine other times it can hardly be heard. I check phone volume and also OK Google to increase volume to max which it shows but the speaker does not respond to these outside adjustments
