Volume Low on Notifications - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

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...?

Certainly has nothing to do with atmos.
I hope they no there's a problem and fix it ?

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.

Yes it's not very clear at all

+1 here.

Same here too
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.

[Q] App for audio level/balance?

Is there an app to control the volume L/R ? I'd like to use it to get the sound coming only from left speaker (headset).

which rom are using ,definately seems to be a problem with your headset as it has nothing to do with left/right speakers.
Hey, it's not a problem. I want to do that myself. I suffer from tinnitus and it's only on my other ear, so I'd like to balance the volume so the sound will only come from the right speaker.

SO...in tha specific case you need MONO headphones.
I think if you try to output double power from one of the audio channels you'll have audio distortion...
Thanks I'll look into it then
oh sorry i didnt read properly ur query i thought u r getting sound from just 1 side

How would one remove the volume limiter on stock rom?

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.

Need advice on Soundmod.

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...

Ring tone/msg tone question

I feel that the ring tone and message tones volume are too low. I've already have it turned on to MAX
but I still feel its too low. How can I go about to making it louder? I had OPO and I loved loved loved how
loud and sharp the sounds were. So disappointed with the X sound lvl/loudness. =(
I'm running crDroid custom ROM and have the same question, but the issue for me is that I think volumes are too loud, even on the lowest level. In my house, there are normally quite peaceful and sometimes I almost wet my pants when the phone rings.
Surely there's a way to modify sound levels through some configuration?
Btw, for the OP, I downloaded my ringtone, notification and alarm from Zedge. Not sure if there are any differences but just wanted to mention.

I went to Zedge and typed in ALDEBARAN no match found. I want my rings/notification loud because many time I'm out
and I can't seem to hear the msg tone when I receive a text. When I had my OPO I could hear it all the time
even when I had my music in the car at a high loudness(disturbing the peace =X).
