Anyone know how I can raise the headphone volume on a rooted Ultra? Used to use voodoo on the note 2 but it's only made for the Samsung. Thank You!

No root required, just enable xloud on sound enhancement.

For both internal speakers and headphone too. When you activate xloud plug your headphone then increase the sound you'll get a warning telling that if you increase further it might damage your ears. That's where xloud is.

I get no sound boost..maybe it works better in 510. Hopefully a future rom will address this. Note 2 rom it was the best feature for me...it's not just the Ultra all smartphones are kept low...something about eardrums....lol!! Again this is for headphones only....I would never think about playing music from speaker...

I am hard of hearing. What Rom or is just an app is recommended?.... has the best and clearest sound for music? Thank you in advance.

Through the speaker on the phone or headphones?
PowerAmp I believe has an EQ you can use to boost some levels, for the most part, the max volume is going to be a limitation of the phone.

Agreed, PA & headphones are the best you can do.
No ROM is going to matter much.
Thank you very much

Actually, it just occured to me -the headphone amp I use (Fiio E6) not only improves the sound of good quality headphones quite a bit, it will make the sound loud enough to totally deafen any normal person........

I thought the same thing until I saw how tiny this thing actually is.
It weighs absolutely nothing & is about the size of a matchbook.
Believe me, it is worth the little extra effort to use it & if you can't hear with this in place you would have to be completely deaf.
Is anyone feeling that the ringing sound is very low compared to the music played through the speakers?

same feeling here.
This......not so good!! Had a few phones with low ringtones, very annoying. Was hoping the Z2 to be on par with the G2 as I found that ringtone volume excellent!

How is the overall call volume? Is it loud enough?
Why do manufacturers do these dumb things?
I wanted the loud speakers mainly for the loud ringing advantage, as I set my phone down in one corner of the house and often miss calls as I can't hear it from the other rooms.
Hopefully there's a fix.

Apparently call volume is low too...
Everything was looking so promising for the Z2...[emoji22]
Can't be doing with a phone with low ring/notification sound...remember on the Sony Ericsson X1 the amount of calls and SMS I missed due to low (and poor quality sound).

Seriously, I don't know why every review I've read so far talks about the power front facing stereo speakers when the volume is really so poor. What's the use?
Looks more like a software glitch to me.
One more bug I find was the volume indicator which appears when you press the volume rocker doesn't seems to be moving continously the correct volume levels. Again, not sure whether it's just me alone with this bug.

Well it's a complete deal breaker for me. Seriously thinking of cancelling my pre-order
My opinion. Both call and ringer volume are more than sufficient.

Well, it depends on you, but I feel it's a software issue as I could hear loudly when I play music. So it can't be a hardware issue. It could be a matter of bug fix update from Sony to fix it.

they are very clear but not loud i thought it would be louder than note 8
I am eager to know that is Xperia z2 sound volume in headphones is higher than iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s
I cant understand why people are so obsessed about max volume, never in my life had i needed to use full volume with headphones, i would have gone deaf! :0 Answering your question i doubt it, since z2 is pretty average when it comes to volume levels.
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk 2
I work in a loud factory and I cannot hear anything but music with the headset. The volume level.being average is an issue with loudspeakers not headset.
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
The volume ain't spectacular, but with the noise cancelling headphones, it sounds better than the iPhone 5/5s
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
well it is about the same as my Galaxy S2 which is not impressing.
But on my S2 I was always enhancing it by several db with different KErnels/Roms (Stweaks). Currently the Roms and Kernels for Z2 already offer enhanced audio power.
The house earphones should really help.
Also if you root and use doom lord kernel you can set volume levels higher.

Didn't compare it to the IPhone, but the sound is definitely louder and clearer than on Sony Xperia P. Hope it helps

Thanks. For the reply, right now I have xperia z the volume levels with my solo hd and studio is not as good as even compare with old ipod nano
I have a Co-worker who uses her galaxy S5 at work and her audio output via external speaker blows my T-Mobile V10 away. Is there any fix for this or an I stuck feeling inferior to her phone?

Install Dolby Atmos, helps with speaker volume.

I don't own the v10 but how much louder does it get after you installed dolby atmos. I have the G4 and not sure if I should pay the $100 and use my jump trade in on the v10 or just get the v10 and keep the G4 and test it for 14days then keep or sell the G4 if I want. The speaker is my concern in store it sounded lIke it was half the output so just wondering how much more can we get from it compared to g4. Don't want to be missing calls etc cut of a weak speaker.
Dolby only works for music. You can edit the speaker output through mixer_paths.xml (I'm pretty sure) Not sure how much louder it goes. Someone that knows will have to answer that. Sorry.

I see thanks yeah that's what I'm looking for but can't find much info.
They were playing around with it in the sound modification thread, under development section. I thought it was louder, but another member didn't. I'll see if I can play around with it some today, I'm at work but I'll try.

Why are we all lumped into the same discussion? I go to check out this speaker fix and I have to flash something. Flash how? I'm on Verizon. Please separate us into different rooms by carrier. This is all very confusing.
Speaker works fine for me but I don't rely on using it for filling a room with music.
Neither do I, but the volume could be higher.

I wouldn't be either but just want to be able to hear the phone ringing while at work. I work construction and I can hear the G4 all day long with power tools running. I probably will just keep my G4 and use that while at work and use the V10 at home and going out etc. Going to check it out again this time at Best Buy and decide tomorrow.
Maybe the ringtone and notifications clips I have can be boost maybe that will work.

it is not loud ot quit problem
the speaker quality is ****
reminded me with Sony mobile speakers
For me the speaker is loud enough, i set the ringing volume to around 40% only and can still hear it in my pocket while riding a scooter with a closed helmet on. The speaker doesn't provide good sound for media consumption, but the ringtone loudness is about three times better than the htc m8. I think it's a good trade off. I enjoy great sound on headphones much more, so i don't really miss those boomsound speakers.
