Anyone notice volume output (ringer, notification, alarm, headphones) on ICS is lower than 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3?
Seems like I have to turn up a couple notch to hear same level as earlier OS.
Any advice for a fix?

I use volume+ from the market. It allows you to separately increase the output volume of the headset, handset speaker and bluetooth output. When in the market if you follow the link to the developer site he is providing the paid version for free. It really helped me as the bluetooth to my car stereo was to low but now it rocks (pun intended).
I had an issue where my handset voice volume was fine, but speaker phone volume was waaaay too high. I've not had any issue with low volume. If nothing else, the volume in ICS is way better than it was in Froyo (from whence I came).
I have the same problem running ICS Passion V12. The volume of the speaker is low even when turned all the way up compared to when I was running Team Whiskey's ROMS. I'll have to try the Volume+ app.
Its a problem with ICS I believe. Supposedly fixed with the lastest 4.04 though.
Maybe ICS issue
Found this posted on Code.Google, so it could be an ICS issue since it's happening on Galaxy Nexus too.

I was wondering if anyone else had issues with their Bluetooth headset after the gingerbread upgrade? Before, on Froyo, I had independent settings for the volume on my headset and on my phone (by this I mean I could turn up the volume all the way on the phone, but still had the five or so presets on my headset); this would give me about 30 or so different volumes I could be at. Now, with Gingerbread, when I change the volume on the phone, it only changes the volume on my headset, so I'm down to only 5 different loudness settings. Sounds like something menial to complain about, but the lowest volume now is blaring, which makes listening to music at work impossible without disturbing others. Any fix that anyone knows of, or anyway around this? Thanks,
Jacob
Bluetooth on gingerbread is working fine for me.
all volume settings.
You might end up resorting to RE -flashing the system.img file for 2.3.4
it should fix it using fastboot
a easier way would be to use the new fruitcake to restore with CWM they work.
I have the Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 which does not have volume control on it, so for devices without the bt volume thing, it plays at full blast even at the lowest volume on the phone.
I downloaded the Bluetooth Volume app and it seems to fix a lot of the volume problems, but its still finicky.
I *just* got this headset, so I don't know if this was a problem with 2.2 Froyo.
I us the S9-HD headset, and everything still works fine with all buttons/volume settings on GB.

hello.
i'm on latest wolfbreak v6 with doomlord's kernel v5 unlocked.
My problem is that i have low volume in headset. Is there any way to make it sound louder without running background apps like volume+ which i also feel that looses the quality as i set it at a higher volume?
before this x10 i had an iphone which had a very high volume in headset.
No one?
DSPManager isn't even working.
if i remember well on galaxy i9000 there was an app/driver for audio..voodoo.....which was much better for amplifying sound which was implemented on kernel or something like that.

please read carefully.
it's not about the headphones. it's about the output that phone gives to my headphones.
I've searched and searched, but haven't been able to find a solution.
Some ROM's have very low call volume through the earpiece, and some are fine. The speakerphone volume is okay, so is when using a headset, just the earpiece volume is very very low. AOKP ICS is fine, but for a few reasons I still wan't to run a Gingerbread based ROM, but Unnamed and Unoriginal have very low call volume.
I've tried accessing the service menu, but it won't let me click into the audio menu. As a last resort yesterday I purchased the Volume+ app, but it didn't make any difference.
Any ideas on how to resolve the low earpiece call volume on Gingerbread ROMs?
-Regards,
Steve
I'm running the official ICS release, and still low volume. =(
What did AOKP do to fix it?
when i was using gingerbread, this is what i did:

Awesome thanks! I wonder if I can use the phone libs from AOKP to fix the official ICS release, since this fix is GB only.

Has anyone else experienced issues with low volume on their Tab? I mean I have a pair of self powered speakers plugged in and the volume on them is turned up all the way. Nothing. The sound doesn't even decrease until I get about 4 clicks away from no volume.
I'm running CM on it with an ICS modem. It's a P7500.
Any suggestions?

Check out Voodoo Sound, its in the Play Store. It will allow you to increase the volume for the 3.5 jack.
DSP Manager from the Cyanogen Mod Team.
Turn the volume all the way down, untill the tablet vibrates. You should now be able to turn the volume all the way up having "recalibrated" it.
That worked for me! I'm running CM 10.1 nightlies, p7510
I've Searched much about it before thinking open a thread, but I got nothing wich could help me.
Is there a way to boost music volume when using BT Headphones ? I'm on android 4.3 ProBam v4.4.2. tried few kernel ( like boeffla to adjust the sound volume but it doesn't seems to affect BT Sound)
Tried also alot of others version and roms 4.2.2 and 4.1.2 still no good.
the mod wich actually boost a little the volume was Viper4Android. but I got just a "little up" from the level I was.
My question is... is there anything I could do to boost the volume up using BT Headphones ?

There is little you can do about bluetooth volume. Unlike Speaker, Wired headphones etc, these are not limited to the kernel. It is limited by the bluetooth module and it is controlled independently. Whetever you have now, is what you're stuck with pretty much.
in DSP manager on AOSP roms, it's possible with a few tweaks to the EQ, you may be able to simulate a louder volume. People advised me to try things with modified DSP managers. Such as MegaBeats. It increased bass, but didnt give more volume.
Yeah, i was kinda exprectin that.
but yet, thank you guys for your help
