[Q] CM9 Very Low Volume - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After installing the latest CM9 built on my P7510 I noticed that the sound coming from either the speakers or the headphones is very low compared to the official ICS ROM. I tried to adjust it with the DSP Manager but I cannot bring it to the levels of the official ROM. This is a problem particularly when watching movies because even at maximum level the audio is low. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is the a fix? I use pershoot`s CM9 built of 29/09/20212.

lol ...... I have the opposite problem for ganbarou v1.0 as the volume seems to be too high even when I have it at lowest with my headphones which is why I use vodoo sound to decrese the sound while I listen to music. U an use vodoo sound to bring up the sound too beyond default Max ....... so yeah, just install it from play store and give it a try!

I've used an app called Volume+ but it distorts the sound. As for Voodoo, it says that the kernel should have a patch which allows its use but I am not sure if the kernel in CM9 supports that.

OK, I installed the Voodoo volume app and I managed to get a proper sound level. The strange thing though is that the DSP Manager already has this functionality installed but it does not affect the sound. The standalone app however works properly.

[Q] wanamlite volume issue

I have an issue of volume being very soft when using a earpiece or playing music compared to stock. Anybody have this issue or any solution to it?

Maybe try Voodoo Louder from Google Play. Gives you up to 6dB extra volume thru headphones/headset.

Any other way except 3rd party? Like copy audio lib from stock etc??

Probably not.
There was a little app (free) that used to work on AOSP GB roms that played with the ALSA settings to increase the volume on headphones/headset (a lot; much more than Voodoo Louder does), but it doesn't work with ICS. At all.
Voodoo Louder really is the only option that will give you a nice kickup in volume without reducing the sound quality (I've seen people claim some other apps increase volume more, but tend to mess the SQ up).
I guess you could try copying the audio libraries from stock, but good luck getting them to work. They're obviously not going to work on any AOSP based rom, and you'll likely have a lot of problems getting them to work on non-stock Samsung based roms as well.

I think you are using cm9. CM9 has a new feature where the volume is adjustable when you plug in headphones. It's under Settings-> Sound-> Safe headset volume. From what I know it automatically reduces the volume to 50% when you plug in headphones.

Jellybean, Audio output issues

I've tried the Jellybean builds, I've noticed the audio output is very low. I use my phone for music in my car through my auxiliary cord. With the samsung roms music is a lot louder. I did download VOODOO louder which did work well on CM9/AOKP builds but I can't find a solution for Jellybean.. I've tried extweaks with siyah jellybean kernel and jacked up the audio to 6DB but it doesn't do much at all.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Yes. I'm well aware. I'm just wondering if anyone has had a work around for it.
I have the exact opposite problem on any cm or others like my output volume is super loud

I had the same issue. AOKP JB as secondary ROM with Siyah 4.1, all the way up to the update ont he 9th. I installed DSP Manager, and it makes marginal changes maxing out the equalizer. Today I downloaded EX Tweaks to figure out how to tinker witht he CPU (locks up when 1600 max selected by the way, 1400 is the highest I've gotten working, but haven't bothered with 1500 since it's running great), and noticed it had audio options, and it only goes to +3, but it's a massive difference. Maybe uninstalling everything wipe, and fix permissions, then try with just Ex Tweak, and if it's not that different, put DSP on there. That might be the combination that's working for me. Not much of any significant increase in battery drain. Though I have an extended battery anyway so if it did it wouldn't bother me. Either way, try it out. Used to have my car volume at 22, to listen womehat loud/enjuyable, bumping it up to 26 for the 'good songs'. When I put JB 28 was the ok with like 35 being the good songs. Now, 18-20 is just right. Just for reference I guess. Just search for DSP manager in google for the apk. Hope this helps. I'm a f***'n savage noob so all I can to is trial and error.

go to the market and search for Beats audio. Do a Nandroid backup then run the app installer. It puts the drivers on your phone. It works and definitely increases the sound. My 2/15 is more like 10/15 stock. I've had to download Fine Volume Control to allow me to get the music to a volume that isnt too loud.

[Q] Low sound

Hello.
Im using this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903162
and the latest Dorimanx v 7,23 kernel.
The problem i have is that the sound out from spotify is very low, i have done the "hack" in "extweaks" to boost the sound levels and in all other programs (youtube, music player etc) the sound is quite high, but not in spotify.
I have tried to re-install the app but no difference is made.
Anyone have any idea of what the problem might be?

If it's only an issue with Spotify & volume is fine with every other app, what does logic tell you ?
Possible solution
Had this problem too, somebody else mentioned here as well. Found solution for me was to deactivating sound enhancements in dsp manager. Hope this works for you too

[Q] ROM INSTALLED: Music Quality Horrible Now..

Hello everybody,
I just installed the latest Hyperdrive ROM, however I noticed that now my music quality has gone way down.
I usually connect it to my car that has subs and the intensity of the subs has decreased tremendously. Nothing has changed expect the phone.
Is there an app that boosts the volume on the earphone port? (other than Viper4FX)
Did the ROM decrease the original volume??
You should update Viper. The version that comes with rls14 causes some issues. Also edit the headset options in Viper to your liking.

Go to the settings>device>sound>music effects and select the music fx. Then go back into the music app and try the equalizer.
If I'm using Viper I have to do this sometimes to reset the driver somehow. It's worth the work and the result is great. Viper works with my HD 15
