Does anyone know a way to boost the in call volume on the S4? Pre-jb looked like volume+ would do it but according to the dev his solution doesn't work any more.
Are there any alternatives out there?

Hi,
I'm on Galaxy S2; Android 2.3.3; KE7.
When using headphones on my device the volume is great for music, videos, youtube, and even skype. However for some reason it's only around half of that level when calling (even tough the volume is set to maximum).
I've done some google research and found out that it's quite a common issue with this phone. A workaround has been found by using some codes. However, it is not a permanent solution.
I've found a post which says that someone had called Samsung and they acknowledged the issue and will send them a new phone where this issue has been fixed.
1) Has anyone found a permanent solution to increasing the volume of the call when on headset?
2) I've also found a post where someone says that apparently Samsung will fix this issue in Android 2.3.4. Can you confirm this? When will this be available? If it's longer than 1-2 weeks I will have to send my phone for a refund/exchange (although I love it).
Your advice on the above is much appreciated.
Hi, I've done some further research and I think I've found the solution:
First make sure that your sound is on (as you can't access the volume settings in the silent mode) -> press the Menu button -> Settings -> Sound -> Volume -> and then increase the 'Incoming call' volume.
I've just tested the call volume when on headset and it has been increased to a more that enough level. Great. My love to this phone is growing
Now I have to figure out how to disable the camera shutter sound....but that's a question for another post...
It seems that the solution above worked for some time but now my phone started to deliver very low call volume when on headphones. Maybe it's due to the Android update, I don't know.
However I found that the issue is related to the media volume. For example when I listen to music and turn the volume low then this affects the incoming call volume and it becomes low as well.
The solution to this problem seems to be: make sure that the music volume is max before you want to make a call. I've just tested it an is seems to do the trick.
It would be great to hear to another solutions to this problem for unrooted phones.
Heard this app works well,

The lowest media volume setting for Android is still ridiculously loud in my bluetooth headphones. (In fact, the volume is exactly the same no matter what it's set to.) Is there any way to have better control over it? I tried searching through duckduckgo, but I couldn't find anything. My phone is rooted, if that helps.

Hello,
I have noticed that my call volume is not high enough even when it is set to high. When there is background noise, it can be very hard to hear.
Someone know how to increase the volume through the phone so can hear better?
Please let me know,
Thanks.
Yes a search will find all the louder volume posts .

JJEgan, can you help refer to a post you're talking about. I searched this forum using the keyword "volume" and came up with nothing
I've tried voodoo louder and volume+. Both didn't work for me.
I know what WORKED on gingerbread is the secret debug audio menu *#*3197328640#*#* but the audio cannot be accessed in ICS
You could try the Sony Xloud / Beats Zip. It's supposed to afffect all the various sound levels.

Search does not bring up any solutions....Any help?
This problem has been talked about some time, but I'm not able to find a real solution:
I'm using CM9 with Siyah-kernel. When I use a wired headset, the in-call volume is extremly low. Even at max I cannot understand the other party when I'm outside.
Now, some solutions have been proposed:
* Use STweaks to boost headset volume. That works but also increases the music volume. If I boost it enough so that in-call volume is good, music volume gets hard to control.
* Use the service menu. On my phone I cannot access the audio menu. As I understand, I could flash a different modem (e.g. XXKI3). Can anyone tell me where to download it? All links I found were dead. And anyhow, as I understand these settings are reset on boot. So it's not really a permanent solution.
Is there anything else someone could think of?
I'd really appreciate any ideas.
Best regards
Ole
Anyone else find the sound effects when using voice search in Google now to be very loud and irritating? Even when my system/ringtone/notification volume is turned down, Google now beeps way too loud when using voice search.
Anyone know a way to fix this?
bump... Samsung SVoice common issue as well

Anyone know if any custom Rom's allow disabling/adjusting the volume on these voice recognition alerts? I've found many complaints about the excessive volume back to at least 2013, but no solution yet. Using bt, the volume is easily loud enough to damage hearing. I would like to find a way to eliminate this risk while still retaining the ability to use voice to text, call, change phone settings, etc.
Has anyone gained any knowledge on this issue since this original post? Galaxy S5 is quite a while for Samsung to ignore these complaints. Any help I'd really appreciate.
