Hey
I think that the speaker at the bottom of the z ultra is much too quiet during a phone call. It is hardly useable while driving car.
Is there a mod to get the speaker louder?tl
Thanks in advance.

Simply flash THIS stereo sound mod:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/themes-apps/true-real-stereo-sound-earpiece-t2822893
I advise you to go with the V10 update, best version.
Loudspeaker, ear piece and voice calls are far louder than stock, far better quality with almost no distortion.
Flash the above sound mod and get back to us.
I'm personally using the V10 stereo mod sound and it works wonders, highly recommended.

Thank you. I flashed the audio mod I showed you. Can I flash your mod over it or do I have to wipe Rom first?

No need to wipe your rom. Simply boot into recovery mode/CWM and flash the audio mod. Reboot phone and enjoy the sound and stereo speakers.
With this mod you get sound out the ear piece when using loudspeaker giving you stereo effect.
I too had very low volume, especially when making phone calls in a loud environment. Even using the volume to the maximum wasn't enough.
Using applications such as Skype/Talkray were even worse, volume too low.
After flashing the audio mod, my volume is now set to 6/10. Any louder and my ears ring, too loud!
Flash the given sound mod. Try some music, videos and phone calls upon completion. I'm sure you'll be more than satisfied.
Thank dontbelieve for his hard work. It was him who took the time and effort in making this mod. Support and updates were frequent.

Play a video or music and see if sound comes from both top and bottom speaker.
Yes it is wooow cool.
I looked at the mixer_path.xml the rx?digital volume is everything on 84. Rx7 is for the speaker right? I changed it to 94. Is this option for watching video/music and voice call? Which volume is for headphones?

I have tried V1 all the way to v14 and the BEST one was V10.
Sound was louder, clearer and less distortion.
Most other updates had boomy sound, too much bass and not as loud as V10.

You will notice right away far louder sound and you should get stereo sound. Voice calls and internet calls are far louder.

Correct. I have my Rx7 volume to 94, perfect for me.
Volume for headphones will be under 'headphone voice cfg' setting. Mine is set to 94.. You will find the option further down the speaker cfg. Also change the 'headphones' value to 90 or 94. 'Voice speaker' is set to 105 for loud and clear call volume.
Lastly, 'headphones' is set to 94.
Once changing the above values, make sure you save and reboot for the desired effect to take place.

I will review the program, if it helps to have a little annoying because if it is half does not sound to me that both the headphones and less on the speaker, sounds a lot more and x8 leaves me in the sound back
The In-Call Volume on Xperia Ray is VERY low both in Ear Speaker and Loud Speaker. It is very difficult to hear the other person if your hearing is not perfect. It is a horrible situation and no fix in sight! But if I find something I will post it. I hope someone can help.
Music etc on loudspeaker works fine.
The Samsung galaxy note seems to limit the available volume because of safety reason. I found a post that removes the volume limit for call volume but I need it for music volume
I've tried everything that people have suggested. The only thing that worked was using an equalizer from the market and then using an application other than the stock music player (like power-amp) to listen to music. Unfortunately this doesn't sound that great as even at small equalizer gain values it seems to degrade the sound quality and ultimately at higher gains distorts. Sadly even after rooting and running non-stock ROM's I can't seem to boost the audio values.
In most headphones and auxiliary ports the phones volume is quite good through the mini-jack. However, my work truck is awful and it needs to be boosted and maxed when streaming internet radio to even have a moderately loud listening volume.

Volume+ app by Meltus worked for me on the Unofficial ROM -- at least I think it did. Maybe it was just the EQ settings that did it?
Can you point me to the post that removes the volume limit for call volume? That's exactly what I need!
Same here. Call volume is pretty quiet on GB, or ICS.

This is a little silly, but have you both made sure you're actually lining up the speaker with your ear when you're talking on the phone? The phone is so big that it didn't line up the same as smaller phones. I notice quite a bit of difference when I adjust the speaker to line up directly with my ear.

I did notice that in your other thread. It did make a real difference but not enough unfortunately.
Hi, is possible increase the volume of ringtones and notifications with the service menù?
Have you turned on the xLoud option under the normal settings option?
Settings -> Sound -> Sound Enhancements. Select the Settings tab at the top and turn on xLoud. Makes a big difference.

It's not going to be VERY loud due to the waterproofing of the phone.

If you have root you can try Viper4Android:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
It boosts volume as well as quality (you have to make a balance though or you could blow your speakers from too much of a boost)

Viper4Android doesn't actually boost the Max volume of the speakers. I've tested it with Xloud on and when i change things in Viper4Android there is absolutely no difference until you lower the volume. For example, putting the volume at 50% will be louder with Viper4Android then without.
Max all the equalizer settings then turn off Clear Audio and Dynamic Audio. Clarity will be lower but the volume will be higher.

Dear,
i had Samsung galaxy s5 , which has only 1 rear speaker , and the sound was much louder than this ! , if people have done boosting Tweaks with Root , then Sony Should Push an Update .
phone calls ringing Volume & Notifications , how come you have Stereo Speakers & when your phone rings , one speaker is working !!! that's really *****
Hi all,
I download the soundmod with headphone boost:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2758189&page=13
Flash it and the incoming call volume is loud but the notification volume is still soft like before.
The volume is loud at the settings -> Sound -> notification but when incoming message, wechat, whatsapp all soft sound.
Any suggestion.
Thanks.
It's only for when someone calls you that the sound will play on both speakers, hence the louder sound. I think there's a mod inside one of the RomAurs that increases notification sounds.

Thanks for the reply.
Are you referring to the "Audio Boost" mods by xXWeresXx?
I was hoping the the notification can play on both speakers instead of pushing the single speaker.

Yes. Haven't tried that out yet though. I've heard that the new firmware (438) plays notifications on both speakers. But then again it could just be when someone calls you...

Hmm, can anyone confirm that?
Did anyone experience low volume while notifications came. i feel its too low than s8+.
Same on mine.
It is a bit lower than the s8 plus I have
Yep it's low. Something is wrong (software problem).
I downloaded a few notifications from zedge and there loud but as soon as you use it as a notification it's very low.
Even Samsung own notification sounds are low.
It's really bugging me tbh
I have it to looks like a software problem
Same here. Maybe we should turn off dolby atmos...?

Same here. I downloaded "Shot gun shot" from Zedge for my texts and it has helped a TON. But yea, its retardedly low otherwise.
same here the sound is even weird and only from the bottom speaker.

All notification sounds are really low. Very hard to hear it if you are in a different room. How can we report this issue to Samsung?
this is very annoying. I cant hear any whatsapp notifications because sound is too low!
Guys is there a way to report this ?
I haven't experienced this problem. But I also immediately turned on Atmos when I got my phone and when I did, I noticed that it made the speakers louder.
Maybe there comes a mod to make the speakers louder i have turned atmos on but i don't hear any difference.

Atmos works perfect during Video/music playback.
It's notification sounds that are not very clear and very low in volume.
I watched an episode of walking dead on my phone the other day and enabled atmos and it sounded great I'm pleased with that function.
Yes, I have the same problem, volume for notifications are very low, surely it's a software problem because the speaker is loud for ringtones and other source of sounds.
