Hi I was wondering what is the noise suppression option for in the call setting under additional setting? Would it make my in call volume louder if i turned it off?
It helps reduce the amount of background noise on the other persons end so they can hear you clearer. It has nothing to do with the audio that comes thru your end ;-)

Oh ok is ther any way to increase the in call volume?
The icon confuses me. I don't know is it's on or off. I'm a big dummy

Not sure if theres any way to increase volume in the handset, mine has always been loud enough
You only see the icon when its enabled, so if you don't see it when your on a call you're either on speaker or its disabled.

When Turned ON, the phone will use the secondary mic to capture background noise and therefore suppress it ,not allowing it to get into your current call, it has nothing to do with the volume of the call.
To surpress noise. I that that was already pretty self explainitory?
Ok THANKS FOR THE INFO

Actually a very nice option for those like myself who uses a case that covers this second/noise cancellation mic...

As the title indicates I am having some issues with the volume level of EVERYTHING in CM6.2 4/15 ROM with PBJ 4/15 VooDoo -100.
Calls in the earpiece are really low, switching to speaker is about the same, ringer and notifications are pretty low. Now I am not hearing impaired or anything but most times things are just too loud around me. I have also heard that no one can hear me either so the amplification on the speaker is probably set pretty low too.
On a semi-related note, when the phone rings it only rings once and then stops (some may call this a feature).
A) is there a way to boost the overall volume in CM6?
B) is there a setting I should be aware of for the ringer issue?
Thanks

No idea's at all about at least the ringer issue?

I am having issues as well on CM6.2 4/18. No outgoing ringtone except to *228 and speaker phone volume is very low.

Glad I am not the only one.
Earpiece is slightly louder than 4/15 but still low in 4/18.
Ringer still rings only once and is faint.

Is there a config file someplace where volume boost can be changed?

I'm not sure if I'm acting handicapped here of if its the way Android was written, but my alerts for Text messages and Alarms are notoriously quiet.
I've ticked the box that says "Use incoming call volume for notifications" and then I set the incoming call volume to max. Then I unticked the volume and set each separate volume to max.
Either way, the notification volume is sooo silent that I literally have to look for the green flashing light on my phone to see if I even got a text.
And I almost missed the alarm this morning if I hadn't left vibrate on.

The x10 volume is really low sound. Its one of the only phones I have had that has such low volume. My sisters messaging phone lowest volume is louder than the x10 loudest. So you aren't the only one with the low volume complaint.

But, why is it specifically the notification volume? The incoming call volume is just fine.

I myself had to create my own ringtone with an app called ringdroid from the market from mp3 songs. The sound quality is better and louder.

Ive just got a samsung galaxy s 2, my question is has anyone else noticed that the vibration is really strong so much so that it creates another sound from the phone?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Yes, at least for me, the phone turns into a pneumatic hammer when it vibrates... phone goes for repair :/
Oh yours sounds more serious i guess. It jus sounds as if the vibration is major strong. Like the sound is vibrating against the back panel or something i guess. Wondering if its just a characteristic when thd intensith is high. Ive lowered the intensity and downloaded a vibration app which together eliminate the problem
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
This is usually not a harware fault, but the way the software was created.
In some ROMs you can go to settings>sound and change the intensity of the harptic feadback or just disable it completely.
the vibration on this particular phone is new to me, i dont get any back panel vibrations in the haptic feedback setting,but when i use rotary lockscreen and move the rotary slowly to put it on silent mode it makes a strong vibration and makes a distorted humming sound.
Yea thats right repub, using the haptic feedback is nice but when you lower the volume to vibrate mode or use a toggle switch wudget to vibrate mode theres like a vibrate noise aswell as sonethibg else right? This is the noise of how strong the vibration is i think bouncing off the back panel or battery etc

Is there anyway to reduce the in call volume below the standard minimum level? It's on minimum and I have to hold my headset away from my ear. The volume is fine without the headset.

Yeah,, in 'settings' find the 'galaxy s settings'
Mines under 'device options', every Rom seems to call it/put it slightly something different
Look for 'in call volume controls',,,
Then lower the value for the 'ear piece volume'
You can set it between 0-3
Oh,,, or adjust the headphone settings,,, just re-read your post..

The in call adjustments using the volume rocker on the side of the phone don't change anything whether you turn it up or down. Thank you for the tip of the galaxy s settings. I put them on 0 and I think it helped.
Is there a way to turn down the ringtone AND notification volume at the same time? I despise the fact that I have to turn down both volumes separately in the settings when I get to the office....I'm beyond frustrated at such a simple thing.
Every other phone I've ever had, you simply use the volume rocker to lower the ringtone and the notification volume at the same time.
Nobody else finds this frustrating...or has a workaround?
May I suggest using Tasker which would not only take care of both volumes but also do it automatically for you once you get to work (based on GPS location or WiFi network)?

Sorry, I just leave all of my phones on vibrate only 24-7.

I'm the exact opposite. In fact, the main reason I returned the G4 is because it linked the notifications with ringtone volume.

Why not use the smart settings or tasked to do this automatically?
Its funny that the opposite of this (the volumes linked) was one of the big UI complaints with the G4.
Proof that you're damned if you do damned if you don't. Someone's always not going to be happy no matter what.

it's not JUST work where I'd like to be able to quickly turn down notifications and ringtones....... in what instance does someone want notifications volume up and ringtone down...or vice versa? if you lower one, you'll want to lower the other. seems really silly not to link them.

why would you ever want them unlinked? when would you have the ringtone or notifications louder than the other?

again, it's not OLNLY work where I'd like to have quick control of turning both down
I understand your desire, but you also question why would you want them unlinked.
Me personally, I have a ringtone that is much more aggressive than my notification tone. I usually have them set at their own levels, and when I do want to turn them down, I am usually going for silent so I just use the mute to vibrate toggle. I would never want them linked, and would rather a vendor error on the side of giving me options rather than lumping it all in one basket.
I just did a quick search for an app to do what you ask. I haven't tried it, but you could give it a go: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.marextafl.mx.simplevolume&hl=en
Good luck on your hunt.
Since you asked...
I have particularly loud notification sound. Normally it's a good thing since I don't receive that many notifications. However, there are times when I'm out and about and doing some heavier than normal texting or someone includes me in a group text including my mother, 2 sisters and niece.
That's way too much and I immediately turn down my notification volume in that situation.
I wouldn't want to turn everything down and risk missing a call. Just notifications so that everyone around me doesn't stop and give me the stink eye because my phone is going off like crazy. (with the 1up mushroom sound from Super Mario Bros.)
I definitely prefer them to be controlled separately. Having a "main control" that brings down all volumes at the same time is also handy to have but if I had to pick one or the other I'd choose the individual controls.

Ya I like them unlinked too. I get lots and lots of notifications and sometimes I just want them on vibrate while I still want to hear when I get a call. I do this at work all the time.
fair enough.... to each their own I guess
Wait. On the second screen when the main screen is off you can slide from right to left and there's a speaker icon. Tap it to set the phone to vibrate, silent or on. Also, you can set the volume slider in the pull down notification panel. When this is there you can tap the equalizer icon all the way to the right and adjust the ringtone and notification volumes separately.

this isn't just about turning it from speaker on, to vibrate...... this is about lowering both volumes together at the same time
Well. Sometimes I like my call volume higher than my notifications. This is also not a V10 issue. I believe that this is the way Android itself handles the volume controls. The only device I know of that has one volume for all sounds is Apple's iPhone.

Some older android phones had them stuck together... it may of been an OS thing or a manufacture thing. I do know at one point they had a checkbox to unlink them, and man was that a good day.
