I just got my Rezound and one of my only complaints is the call quality. It sounds very distorted. I wasn't sure if there was a mod or something I could flash to change or better the call quality.
Search is your friend.
Scroll down to almost the last post.
Thanks, I did a search and for some reason didn't see that. Anyways, tried it and calls still sound off. Im beginning to think that it's a speaker issue.
My first rezound had a bad ear piece speaker. Sound like the speak was blown out. The new phone I have is perfect. Exchange the phone.

my incall quality is great, it's the low speaker volume that sucks!
As a phone my Rezy has far and away the best performance for voice calls of any smartphone I've ever owned...ymmv.

Love this phone, but I need more bass pumping from it!. God Smack, Se7endust, Rush, and yes fu**kers, ADELE!, sound like $h¿t without good bass. Deep punchy bass makes me happy. I've been using the paid version of Volume+ but that's as useful as a screen door on a submarine. If anhbidy knows of something better, please share. No pirated apps please. Only legit. I have no problem going to.market an paying for it.
Please, let's not turn this thread into a N©©B salad. Thanks

Poweramp. That's the one to get. But, considering the speaker is smaller than half of a dime, I doubt you'll ever get punchy bass yet alone deep....

I guess Beats Audio is not an option?? I also use Poweramp and LOVE it! DSP manager is also a beast!

Thank Boost if you use either of these in the link!
Thought I mentioned I flashed beats audio. I'm going to try adding DSP.

DSP is f/c-ing.

dsp will fc if you have any other volume/sound tweaks running/installed....
If youre really serious about your bass, I recommend a portable amplifier. I picked up the Fiio E11 and it blows my mind every time.

Poweramp is going to be a wise choice.
What are you settings on the other equipment you are using? Might adjust some crossovers

What headphones are you using?
I also agree with VinceG. If you really want some good sound, you should consider a portable Amp/DAC and some good headphones.
Are you sure it the bass that's making that music sound awful? But yea, power amp is really good. Also a good pair of over the ear headphones will help a lot.

The best earbuds for me I've found are the ones that come with an iPod Touch. Those things are great.
As for music, PowerAmp has never let me down.
Good Luck.

If this APP would work..
I purchased these headphones when my old in ears died that I had used for over 2 years, and they came with a app that let you control the sound to your liking.
[link to headphones: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...adphones+and+Accessories-_-Klipsch-_-26779026 ]
[link to app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.outsidesource.klipschcontrol&hl=en ]
You might try the app with your current buds. It might be what your looking for. I would uninstall any apps that affect sound you have installed.
Is there really such a thing as deep bass from earbuds? Regular headphones with sizable drivers yes but earbuds?

Actually, yes.
I have a pair of Sennheiser HD600's which are over the ear 'studio' headphones, when I bought them, they were priced at $600 and were the second best set sold by Sennheiser (the best set went for $2500). Currently, the HD600 set is now the third best set, beat out by the HD610's.
All of that to say, I have a pair of Sennheiser earbuds that perform nearly as well as the HD600's (again, priced currently in the mid $550 range), but the earbuds are priced at I believe $450 retail (the ie80s).
If you have a tendency to loose earbuds however, the $450 set is a bad choice. Buy a cheap set and learn to keep control of them before you make that kind of investment.
You get what you pay for. Buy cheap, you get cheap. Sennheiser headphones (the higher end ones in particular) not only have the capability of putting out the bass, they are well balanced, not overly bass'y' just to be 'cool'. You get a very accurate sound reproduction out of them and I recommend them highly.
Earbuds do not put out the bass by them self, they use your ear canal as a bass reflex hole. You need to be careful when using earbuds for this very reason, they seal your ear canal and use the pressure created by the sealing to create some pretty impressive bass.
IE-80s ($450)

The IE-80s can have the amount of bass adjusted in each earpiece by using a small screwdriver and the headphone wire is replaceable. One last thing, you need to allow around 15-30 hours of usage time with these before you make a final decision to keep them. This means, use them for 15-30 hours because they begin to sound even better than when you first take them out of the box.
I recommend getting higher quality earbuds or headphones and use Poweramp.
I currently use Poweramp coupled with either the Astro A*stars (earbuds w/control), Beats Tour (earbuds w/controltalk) and Beats Solo (overear w/controltalk).
Best all around sound with the A*stars though, boomier eye cavity vibrating resonance with the Beats (both).
And yes if that's not enough and as someone else mentioned early... might wanna get an external amp DAC.

Did you miss the part where he mentioned Rush though? I give it a negative 5.
Just upgraded from S2 to S3. Phone is amazing but have noticed a small issue where some of the notification tones are distorted when playing out the speaker. Some are fine but others such as Flowers and Charming bell sound distorted and a bit buzzy.
Is this normal or should I get it checked? I know it's a small thing but I checked with earphones and it's not the tones themselves. Perhaps they are just played at too louder volume?
Thanks.

The phone speaker rattles at high volume.
Welcome to cheap, sloppy mass production. (Wait until your bezel chips or cracks too. Or you get dust in strange places)
Everyone knows the One has great sound. Since I don't know anyone who currently owns the One and don't think I can get a real feel in-store, can current owners give me a comparative opinion?
My frames of reference are the Galaxy Note 10.1 stereo speakers and the Nokia N8.
Thanks!
I had the nexus 10, which I think was supposed to have the same speakers as the galaxy note series.
The One's speakers are much fuller in terms of range and soundstage. Highs are higher and lows are deeper.
The only positive aspect of the N10/Note's speakers were that they were front spacing, quality wise they were relatively crappy-sounding.
I'm very pleased with the speakers, I will admit I thought they would be a little louder but the sound quality is impressive. If you disable beats the volume is a little greater Imo. I'd try to find a demo unit and mess with it.

They're almost obnoxiously loud, but the quality is amazing. I don't want another phone with rear speakers.

They won't replace any headsets or speaker docks, but they have brought built in speakers from hideous to surprisingly acceptable. They're magnitudes better than the very very low bar that is the norm.

Agreed... I have to keep my ringer to half or so in the house because of the volume but I wouldn't have it any other way...
It blows away the Note 10.1, Nexus 10 speakers

I had to get a new alarm clock that slowly increases the volume of the alarm over 5 minutes. The standard alarm on the One scared the crap out of me in the morning on two occasions.
I agree with the others. The sound is loud but also clear. My GS3 speaker would get loud but that was only if it was facing away from you or if the sound was reflecting off of something. While it was loud it sounded really distorted. The speakers on the One are loud and don't sound like a teeny tiny cellphone speaker. They sound like decent laptop speakers.

Is amazing how good and crisp they sound. One of those things that you think is overhyped marketing.....and when you see it in action you don't want to get another phone with rear speaker. Crisp. Clear. If music played has stereo quality it comes out as it should. Obviously, these are small speakers, but for the size it's amazing.
I use my One to play music for my office floor. Rameses b. Not bad stuff. Check him out.
Excellent speakers.

I love the speakers, they are loud, but not overbearing, the quality is much better than most others phones I have heard. Im happy I dont have to cup my hand behind the phone anymore just to hear the sound when im watching a youtube video. all in all, I think its the fact that the speakers are in front instead of on the back, it makes for a better user experience IMO.:good:
My 2 year old can finally listen to "wheels on the bus" in stereo quality, praise the Lord!

anyone else having this issue? i just bought this today and my iphone 5 speaker was louder than this. only time its somewhat loud if you lay it on a surface but thats because it amplifies it.
I also think its not as loud as my s3 but it sounds way clearer

I've noticed the same thing. My Droid Razr was louder.
