Hello
In sound menu, you can choose volume for MEDIA from 0 to 15, but for other parts (ring tone, notification, system) there is only 0 to 7.
Is there any way to have more control on these 3 parts and set volume from 0-15 except 0-7?
(i know that 7 loudness is equal to 15, i mean for example 0,0.5,1,1.5,2,...,6.5,7)
Thanks
no one can help?!!
I know what you mean, just doesn't seem that big of a deal for most people, me included.. Maybe if you tell us what is for, we could help..?

You can get extra sound features such as amplification and increasing sound level if you flash custom kernel such as the Siyah Kernel which comes with App called Stweaks that lets you change such settings.
Siyah Kernel 1.8

SOLUTION FOUND - TESTING -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411317
I'll provide a better tutorial for those interested when im done testing it ;-) seems i can build a custom Framework.jar with edited volume increments.
I'm running cm7 from cm9, I listen to alot of music during the day and night but I find the volumes at the high end of the range perfect but the volumes down the low end to stark.
The gaps between 0 and 1 is no sound and then considerably loud in a quiet environment, is this a kernel related volume incriment or set by the code in cm7 somewhere?
I can't find an app to add what I'd call analouge volume control ( finer increments in DB from 0 to MAX)
Any ideas guys?

not to threadjack but how do you even use the high volume? at a volume level of 1 with my TripleFi 10 Pros is as loud as I wanna get.
I plug my SGS2 into the car and I can't go anywhere above 1/4. It's as loud as my Nexus S on FULL, and same with my iPod touch. the sound output is ridiculously loud.

This is a well known (and annoying because I use a rom that's a CM derivative) issue. I've learned to live with it & don't really want to run a standalone app just to give me fine control of volume levels, however, I found this on my travels recently. I haven't tried it, but this might be a good starting point for apps to try.

Nice find I tried about 8 apps last night, also considered a voodoo sound esque fix but we know the sgs2 has not got the correct hardware.
unless there is a voodoo sound kernel for cm7 out there but all kernels I try with cm7 give me a corrupt boot to the boot logo and then crashes and I have to hard reset.
CM7 is horrid for 3rd party Kernel support.
MistahBungle said:
Since I started using the app in my sig, I only need volume on around 25-30% thru in-ears. Before that I'd have it on 80% or so. SGS2 (maybe not all, could be manufacturing variations .
Thats what i see manufacture variations .
Stock phone stock headphones no sound change apps volume level at 50% is far to high on my phone . Its an original day one released phone .

Supercurio has released Voodoo Louder for SGS2 which also boosts headphone/headset volume (by 6dB), but it doesn't give you that fine volume control.
And as JJE said in his post, with the experiences reported by SGS2 owners on here, this volume issue would appear to be a manufacture issue/dependent on which 'batch' your phone came from.

I'd like to call that unreliable information, as I never had this issue with Cognation ROM, its only become a issue with the Current CM7.1.
I'd take a look into this but I have no experience into editing the android system short of using command sin Terminal Emulator and ADB.
There must be a scale somewhere that relates to the number of volume increments and the DB output, after all there is a law regarding maximum volumes of devices in the EU and OEM's adjust there in their hardware dependant on Region, so the DB values can be adjusted some how, I just need to know where i can find it.
EDIT : This works on some handsets not my SGS2 !
Dial in *#*#197328640#*#*
Next, tap your finger onto the following, in the following order:
[5] Audio
[1] Handset
[1] Volume
[1] SRS Speech RX Volume
next notice the following defaults that pop up.
[0]0_lvl:63
[1]1_lvl:68
[2]2_lvl:73
[3]3_lvl:78
[4]4_lvl:83
[5]5_lvl:88
This basically means, that your volume up and down keys have 5 clicks, starting from the lowest setting, and click your volume up 5 times, takes you through the sequence of volumes listed above. You can change each click to be a new volume setting. For me 1-4 are fine, I just wanted max volume, which is click number 5, to be something higher. The phone does not let you to put in half increments, meaning 88.5 is not possible. So you have to use increments of 1. Please please do this carefully, dont suddenly jump to 95, you could blow out your speaker possibly. So I tried just 1 increment above 88, went to 89, and perfect, much louder now! okay so this is how you do it:
Once you get the list above, do the following:
Click your finger on [5]5_lvl:88
Next, a screen pops up asking for input. On the bottom of your phone, tap the menu button, this is the button next to the little home button.
Next tap "key input"
Next tap 1 increment at a time, lets start off with 89 so where it says enter value, tap this, your keyboard pops up, type in 89
Next Tap your menu button again
Next Tap "end"
you are now finished, make a phone call and see how 89 works for you, when your volume is set to max
Remember this volume adjustment seems to reset after you reboot the phone. Some people online are saying you can also make the volume higher by playing with the hearing aid settings, I personally haven't tried this yet.

You can call the volume loudness issue anything you want. But given the experiences of people who have posted here over the past however many months, that is what these experiences suggest.
This is what JJE & I were talking about when we mentioned the manufacture thing.
Not the fine volume issue.
Indeed, that seems to be prevalent on CM based roms. I don't recall having any problems increasing volume in small increments for the < 1 week I ran stock firmware on my phone after I bought it.
As I've said, it's not a big enough deal for me to use a standalone app, so it's definitely not a big enough deal for me to muck around with dialer codes. I saw these codes months ago before I even bought my phone, and never bothered with them. The fine volume control doesn't really bother me, I just thought I'd reply to you OP given you were after an app that enables same, and I'd found the app I gave you a link to recently.

That app did nothing, I used it and it gave me the same options as DSP gives you from CM.
The not high enough volume issue can easily be solved in CM7 but comment about that has hijacked my thread, im looking into how we can edit the fine volume adjustment or edit the increments to go from MAX to MIN volume.
Service codes don't appear to work on my handset ( CM related ? ) but I believe the service mode is built into the framework.
I"m looking for a volume booster that will make ring tones and the like louder, not the music (that's plenty loud)...but I guess I have a hard time hearing and it seems like text/ring/notification/email tones are all very quiet, even with the volume turned all the way up.
Anyone? Also running ICS.
I think there's LITERALLY an app called, "volume booster" XD check it out man!

I thought it was only me having that issue. I have a new Motorola elite and the Jawbone era and I can barely hear the ring notification on my headsets. When I answer everything is loud and clear. I'll try the DSP apk as well and I'll post something if I find a fix. It's the same whether I'm on ICS or any of the collective roms.

Volume + is the best period.... The free version is great and it lets you raise the level of sound using +1,2,3,4 level +3 is plenty loud for me... Try it and you wont be disappointed... Remember its volume (plus sign) +.... Enjoy!!!!

Just curious did you root your phone or alter the ROM? On the free version it gives a warning not to download if you are using a stock rom or Kernel. I am stock just wanted to make sure.

Does it increase the in-call volume when using the handset? If so, how did you do it? I can't get it to increase mine.
Can't get it to increase anything, and I did make it the main volume control app.

I've never tried to make the call volume any higher to be honest,..though I know it has options to set up a higher in call level setting....seems like it adds something to the build prop so I never tried...lol...
I found this through the CALLRECORDER app called AlsaMixer seems like its working nice on my current unofficial rom....I also have installed volume+....But this seems to make increases on every spectrum, .check it out
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.alsamixer
Tell me what you guys think, I'm playing now with the settings its hard to set.. any feedback or setups would be a great help....
Thanked.
Checking it out now!
edit: This looks confusing lol which setting would make the speaker louder overall? Like on games and everything.
I know right...I think the overall volume one.. I set it to1-100 I put 30...man this crushes any app I've used for volume....my incall volume is even louder...I wish I had a guide to a setup or something....for now its just trial and error
How is this app working out now that its been a few days?
I downloaded it, but I have no clue what to use to make ringtones and text tones louder. Anyone?
Device_volume I put 30 in that field it seems to increase a lot so far....! Still haven't messed with any other values except for the self explanatory ones...and I know it works...also still have volume+ installed as well...but that's what I think are phone was missing those alsamixer files...kinda like how audio booster puts a modded soundbooster file in the system.. this adds all of them on every aspect
So you put plain old 30 in the Device Volume.
Did you have to check the set on reboot and reboot to hear the difference?
Any other tweaks that worked?
thank you .. dig the find
OK...set it to 40...I originally had it at 30 and didn't hear much of a difference.
for me text messages are truly to low. need to find the setting for that one when I get home to my phone
ok i set my device_volume to 40 apply to boot...also i have volume+ speaker settings>volume level at 7,,then go to in call settings. and say you have root to get the root access command then back out.....this phone cant get any louder without distortion, when i get a text i can hear it in the basement now...lol.

I tried with and without the app
Alsomixer and volume+ last pic system volume speakers set to good quality and to 7...

@Wish777 ;
Are you running Gingerbread? I've would like to try "alsamixer" but It seems not compatible with iCS ..

I can understand the pain, i also faced same problem. By the way have you tried to increase volume using engineering mode.
you can use Viper4Android. My phone is too loud these days. After installing, you will have to install the proper Impulse Response for maximum effect. You should select the desired Impulse Response. I use the iPod's IR. After this enable FIREqualizer and set preset as Accoustic. then enable Reverberation and Extra Loud. Now you'll wake up screaming with those alarms

Hey guys,
I got a problem. IGO Prima seems to be really quiet when i have it on max volume.
Is there a fix for that?

I had same prob with Here and Waze alerts. Very quiet even the voce navigation was loud enough.
1. Be sure iGO is configured as default 'navigation' I.e. 'gps' app in settings
2. Set sound more to switch not to mix
That solved voice navigation level for me.
But... Alerts were still very low.
Found out that voice and us treated as 'GPS' channel while everything else (alerts) are treated as System channel.
So in order to rebalance you have:
1. In Factory settings lower radio and other audio channels and increase system until you are satisfied with their relative levels (yes the levels are relative in relation to overall volume level you set via main volume / button / sec)
2. Use some of custom modules (if included in your custom ROM - Mal for example includes several in the same time that allow to change different apps / channels sound kevels)
I found out that Factory defaults + custom modules may make a mess over volume control... So check everything and especially if there are contradictory settings in different modules
