[Q] AOKP (RR 3.1.0) Volume control needs more steps - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am facing an annoying issue with Volume control at Resurrection Remix 3.1.0. (maybe at all AOKP builds). The volume slider does only take somewhere 7 steps (the half of the slider) to reach max volume. Slider will walk forward, but volume will not raise anymore. the volume reached by this half way is loud enough, the problem is, that lowest Volume ist still to loud and the granularity at all is very poor, does not find adequate volume level while listen musik, always need to play around 2 levels. Read somewhere that this could maybe fixed while changing framework to add more steps, but have no clue how to do.
I am the only one noticed this annoying issue?
Any ideas how to solve?
Thx!

I'm facing with the same problem too in CyanogenMod, but it seems to fix itself when I'm listening to music through Poweramp.

Hi,
thanks that fixed the music issue. Think poweramp will replace the for long time used mixzing player, if I am not able to find a usable player for free.
Volume issue still remains with Video player BSPlayer. any alternative for this?
I would really apreciate to find a solution to change the granularity in the settings or patch it myself to be able to choose what ever player I wnt to..
Thanks and regards

[Q] Any way to change volume increments?

I spend most my time in a library with in-ear headphones and the lowest volume is just too loud for me. Is there any way to change the volume rocker's (or slider's) increments?
I'm using Vegan 5.1.1
Sorry Hachi, I dont have an answer for you.
But I am bumping this post up because I have the same problem.
Also took 5 minutes of searching to find this post.
Has anyone found a solution to this yet?
Thanks
Tnt Lite. I had vegan before and lowest setting is still loud. Tnt Lite works. Just do a backup first and try TNT
I would also like to know if there is a solution for this. I am currently running VEGAN 5.1 and when I listen to music only the first half of the media volume does anything. From half to full I dont really notice a difference. I would like to be able to properly spread it out so when I turn it up the max volume on the screen is also the max volume of the device.
I am using TNT Lite 4.4 and noticed the volume is very low until the last setting, not a linear curve.
try using Quick Settings from the market. it allows you to tweak the volume a whole lot more than the stock settings menu.

This does help with system level volume items, but as far as media being played even at 1/10 the volume is too loud.
Fortunately using my blue-tooth headphones I have found I can use the in-line volume control to make it a reasonable level. I just don't know what I will do on an airplane.
Can you keep your BT awake while the screen is off?

I just tested with locking the screen and had no problems playing music with the stock player, tested for around 12 minutes. After that i set my sleep to 2 minutes, started a song and walked away with the screen still on. The screen went to sleep but the music kept playing, tested for two songs.
Good question and sorry I don't have an answer, but I'm glad you asked. I've seen huge volume differences in different apps. For example, Angy Birds is too loud for quiet settings even at the lowest volume level while some web sites are too low even at the highest settings.
Try the free poweramp app in the market. Go into the eq settings and adjust output. This solved a volume issue for me

Very Low Media Audio

I'm coming from a D1 and was used to its speaker volume. I've noticed that in most all apps (skype, youtube, sirius xm) my Tbolt's output volume is pretty low. I've got the slider up as high as it goes, and it doesn't come close to the output of my last phone. Is this something with the ROM I'm running? Are people with stock phone's noticing the same problem? Is there a setting I'm missing?
Thanks
Did you change the media volume in sound settings or just the overall volume of the phone?

[Q] In-call volume CM7

Hello,
I flashed JT's CM7 (Test build 7) yesterday, and I absolutely love it.
However, I have a problem involving In-call volume.
If I press the up and down volume buttons to adjust in-call volume, the volume stays the same although the graphic indicator bar moves.
For all the other volume settings (like media volume, alarm volume, etc) seem to be OK.
Am I the only one who's experiencing this problem? =(
Can anybody please help me to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, everyone is having that problem. It is a problem with the libaudio driver. It was a hacked driver from the nexus s that was hacked even more on top of that just to get it to the level of functionality that it has now. When jt has some time, I'm sure he will rewrite libaudio and the volume issue will be improved.

[Q] Media volume stays muted?!

It doesn't seem to matter what the volume is set to, my media volume (almost) always has a slash through it and doesn't play media sounds (games, music, etc). I'm not sure what causes it or how I can fix it. The phone seems to do it randomly.
It hasn't always been this way, it comes and goes. I've watched Netflix and heard the music to Tiny Tower which both use the Media volume. Restarting my phone has shown to help at times but so far it always comes back. I'm hoping a firmware update can fix it.
I have no audio apps for monitoring volumes and none of the Motion settings that would affect audio are turned on. I keep my phone on vibrate 24/7 but still wish to have the media volume work separately than the ringer volume. I have (self-taught) experience in rooting, applying mods, general android app development, as well as every day usage with the android OS and this has me incredibly annoyed that I can't figure this out.
How can I explicitly mute/unmute my media volume?
Stock, no root, Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III (SPH-L710) Android 4.0.4 Hardware version L710.14
Do you mute/ vibrate from notifications - I can imagine that will override the sound settings. Set ringtone to zero and media to desired level?
No, I only ever change the volume through the volume rocker when I'm in an app that uses the media volume. I also never change the volume of notifications, they're muted and set to vibrate. The only volume I ever use or change is the media volume.

[Q] Music volume gets lowered when a notification happens, fixed if volume is changed

So I'm currently on RR 2.6.1 with siyah 3.4.1 and pretty much everything works perfectly. There is this one problem I have though. If I'm listening to music and get a notification, the notification plays just fine, but after it has finished playing, the music is very quiet. It will also stay this way until I change the volume via the hard buttons, and actually jumps instantly back to what it was before the notification.
I was also unable to find a solution by search, supposedly I just couldn't come up with the correct search terms. So, anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?
+1 i have the exact same rom and kernel and i hate when that happens, also i would love if someone told me how to lower the timeout for the volume notification, like, when you change volume and you are seeing a vid on youtube, the volume pop-up takes a while to dissapear and i dont like that
Yes, I've been looking for the same answer but nothing so far. I've got the same problem that after another apps notification the music volume stays down. I'm running the Slim ICS 4.2 with Siyah 3.0.15. I tried to "unlink" the volumes in the volume option but didn't work.
Help us!
I think it's CM9 issue and since AOKP and Slim Roms are based on it, then you guys will have the same issues.
