Increase Bluetooth Mic Volume on Galaxy S4 Active I537 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Mocreo Clipper bluetooth headphone adapter that has low volume on the microphone on calls. it does work but I get complaints that callers can't hear me very well. I see several volume mods in the forums so I was wondering if there is a mod or app to boost it a little. I am running Kit Kat.

[Q] Low Bluetooth Volume

I don't know if whoever wrote the bluetooth stack for Android has Super Hearing or what.... With wired headphones, I have to turn down the volume or I'll blow out my hearing... But with Bluetooth, it's like a fscking whisper.
I have tried the voodoo sound, but apparently it only boosts wired headphones - absolutely not what I need! I listen to music over my stereo Bluetooth headset, or at least I try to. I usually give up in frustration.
Is there any hack/mod for the Vibrant that will allow an increase in BLUETOOTH volume?
Thanks!
Total opposite for me. My wired headphones sound terrible and tinny with no bass at all. Bluetooth on the other hand sounds fantastic. What type of Bluetooth headphones are you using?

bump. I have a helmet with stereo bluetooth built in, I use it to listen to music and/or gps while riding the motorcycle. And I can't hear a thing once I get moving on the bike. On CM7 and Miui they have DSP manager and on my G1 there was the louder volume hack app.. but i can't find anything for 2.2 roms for the vibrant. I'd really like the ability. I tried adjusting the numbers under bluetooth in the volume section with the secret codes but had no success.
hi there, i have the same issue... i bought a motorola s10-hd and they sound good but very quiet...
On Bluetooth: I turn phone volume all the up then control volume via Bluetooth.
On Wire: REMIND MYSELF to turn down phone volume before wearing earphone. Sometimes I forget and OUCH my ears!!!
Anyone have a better method, please share.

Volume boost?
I have a Samsung Captivate that runs on Firefly 3.0 froyo rom. The problem is that the audio of music and most importantly videos are not loud enough. Voodoo control plus does a great job of increasing the volume for wired headset. But I use bluetooth headset to listen to music and watch movies. I can hardly hear the audio in noisy environments.
Can someone suggest some app or fix or mod to increase volume in bluetooth headset?
I came to know that volume+ app for gingerbread does this job. Any similar app for froyo? or Voodoo control plus can actually help with BT headset volume boost?

[Q] Sound booster app hack???

I've got a Samsung Exhibit and am using a Jawbone Bluetooth and was wondering if there is a way to increase the in call volume on the Jawbone?
You can try Volume+, it can increase speaker, headset, bluetooth and In-call volume.
Thanks I'll give this a try.

[Q] Bluetooth distortion on calls/voice but not A2DP Music

I paired up my Note with my new Belkin A2Dp Car kit and found that I am not able to control the bluetooth volume for the phone/voice profile.
Voice input sounds distorted as does any voice going out to the speakers. In calls the person I am calling sounds distorted and they say I do also. Obviously voice commands are useless as the phoe cannot identify what I am saying properly due to the distortion.
It's as if the mic-boost is blasted all the way up for the voice call bluetooth profile, is this the same issue of Samsung's crap BT stack that they never seem to fix?
I tried using an App called A2DP volume to force volume settings on connect but they have no effect on the BT in call volume, even the volume rocker on the phone does nothing during a call.
I dont see any volume or mic controls on my bluetooth device as it is a car-kit.
The music audio quality over A2DP is excellent and not distorted at all.

Anyone? Surely other people are using BT headsets and car kits with their note?

Yep the A2DP profile is clear and sounds great, as I said in my post, but the phone call profile is distorted and blown out, adjusting the volume on the phone seems to have no effect on this profile.
To clarify...no issues on mine. .phone calls included

I had a similar problem with a Kenwood player once. I had to update the player from the Kenwood site to fix it.
I think it's a bit outdated, but did you manage to fix it?
I have this belkin device and the same volume call issue (can't use it for calling). Tried with the phones in my signature and with an iphone 4s and get this issue with both. Only with an iphone 3g I could control volume successfully. Maybe it's only compatible with apple devices. iphone 4 doesn't work because ios5 disabled bluetooth call volume control.
It's too disappointing..
Bluetooth Distortion
Hi there. I upgraded my SGS i9000 to Jellybean JRO03L recently - latest build is excellent. However, Bluetooth call quality is distorted as per Griffindodd but ADP2, although relative quiet is very good.
Can't figure out what options I have.
Have the same issue in terms of controlling car music volume on the dashboard, but haven't noticed call quality, just got the a2dp application and will let everyone know how it works
Update: didn't work, still can't adjust volume via dash

still nobody has any solution for this?

figured out a work around for myself, so I found that when playing through Apollo I could control the volume on dash but not while playing Pandora and others, so what ended up working is loading both, pausing Pandora, playing Apollo to get volume control, then holding down the back button to kill Apollo(make sure this is enabled in developer options in phone settings), then Pandora should start playing again all by itself and still have volume control.

bluetooth headset microphone volume is low

Running CyanogenMod 7.1 on Vibrant.
The other party complains that the volume is very low.
I searched everywhere and haven't found a way to raise the bluetooth device microphone volume.
Is there a way, may be a utility which could do it?
No answer

[Q] Wired headset not working

Hi.
I just bought Klipsch x7i headphones to use with my galaxy s3. I am aware the volume buttons do not work for android devices which is fine but I assumed everything else would work fine. This is not the case.
The headset (and mic) work perfectly when MAKING calls to others, but the headphones become disconnected when RECEIVING calls (headphone logo no longer shows), and I can no longer hear the other person or speak to them through the mic.
What's the deal? Are there any apps I can download to help or do I have to return these headphones? After searching for an answer I have found out that third party mics do not work for the s3 but what I don't understand is the fact that the headset/mic DOES work when MAKING calls but not RECEIVING them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK. I've narrowed down the problem. The headset stops working when I press the middle button to receive calls. In other words, if I answer a call using the actual phone, the headset works fine. If I do press the middle button to receive a call, I can no longer hear the other person nor can they hear me through the headset.
I noticed the iphone 5 headset works exactly like the klipsch x7i and has the same problem for me. Does anyone use the iphone 5 headset with the galaxy s3? Does the headset work for you?
I recently bought the Nocs NS400 (iPhone version) and have exactly the same problem. Google Now is also not listening to my headset when I press and hold the middle button. Receiving a call via the middle button somehow mutes my mic for good (and for all eternity until you re-plug the headset). When I am in a call and connect the headset later on, it's not transferred to the headset mic.
I re-soldered the volume keys (added some resistors) to make them work with the S3 (woks fine now) and figured that the original headset is doing something different with the middle button: while the iPhone headset is just doing a short between mic and ground, the original headset is having 50 Ohms here. (maybe that's [part of] the problem)
Could you find out more about this odd behavior?
