Is there any way to increase the overall volume on the phone.. Even when using the speaker, the volume really sucks...
Made a few adjustments in the settings I did not see before.. Now everything seems to a little better.. I just remember yrs ago, there were files you could change in these phones to increase the stock volume much better then what it was..

it sounds like handset volume is too low on my phone but i'm still not sure yet since i've only had the phone for 2 days. it's definitely lower than the htc incredible's handset volume by a decent amount. there is also a very slight hiss but i think that's normal.
i bought the optimus t on ebay so i won't be able to take it to t-mobile and get it exchanged for a new one. i've been trying to search for a root solution to make it louder but i can't find anything. the one solution i have found was only for samsung android phones. any ideas on what i should/could do?
You mean the earpiece volume while on call or the speaker phone ergo the ringer?
Both are realised thru the same speaker. While the earpiece volume is pretty high, the quality leaves a lot to be desired. Its a bit shrill and piercing. Strangely enuf the same speaker performs very nicely for music playback!
You sure you maxed out the volumes?
i mean the phone's earpiece. i have no problem with any of the other volume levels and i have made sure i maxed out the volume for everything and then i'm going to see if they are too loud after a couple of days and adjust them accordingly.
Hey,
I'm having a problem with the extremely low in-call speaker volume on my GSM hero. Anyone got a solution to this problem?
The amount of information you communicate is overwhelming.
How about a headset?
what kind of information would you like? the phone is rooted, i've tried a whole bunch of different roms and kernels and still no difference. At the moment i'm using WildHeroWWE 1.2.1 and LV 0.4.7 . And I would really like to be able to use the phone "as is"
Yeah, ROM and kernel were the informations I wanted to hear.
Not that I'm aware of the different settings of ROMs or kernels in the audio area, however I tried to find some informations.
As you said, there is no change in the in-call volume on different ROMs.
So I would count the software part out.
Maybe you got a defective speaker?
Let's try something out: While calling change the output to the external call speaker. It should at least be a bit more unquiet. Maybe you can compare the different loudnesses (loudnesses?! ) ... if the external speaker acts normal there is definitely a problem with the internal speaker.
Have you tried to raise the volume with the left button?! You didn't answer to your old thread, so I think you did.
Well, it's like this, everything seems to work, the in-call speaker volume is just a little to low. I can hear everything that is said when i'm talking on the phone, if i'm in a totally quiet room or something like that.The sound is infact quite clear, I would just like it to be a little louder. If i set the call to speaker, the volume is normal, i'ts just the in-call speaker volume that is too low.
Really hope some of this stuff makes sense...
I tried searching but didn't find anything about this yet, but is there a mod to increase speaker volume output? I feel like even when it is maxed out on the phone that it could be louder. I don't think if we increased it the quality would go down that much at all.

Hopefully Faux will come out with a fix within his kernel sometime soon. He was already able to increase volume via headphones although that has been pretty loud already anyway.
Is anyone else annoyed about how quiet the volume is with headphones plugged in? I'm not using the official ones that came with it, but my own IEMs.
It's so quiet that on a Tube I can hear way too much external noise. For a multimedia device, this is making me unhappy!
My bootloader is locked so I can't root. Does anyone have any other suggestions or should I just get my portable amp back out?!
Thanks!
Did you already try all the sound enhancements in the settings???
Sound enhancements don't help much. Try the "normalize" option.
All other "enhancements" just lead to dynamic loss, to "pumping" sound and loss of audio details. Bad choices.
Tweaks like the ones done using "PowerAmp" do NOT work, just cause distortion.
By the way: I HATE the low volume, too. It's just annoying.
Yeah, the sound enhancements don't really do that, even normalize seems to be a bit hit and miss (sometimes i switch between it and volume goes up, other times down!)
It sounds like there's way too much processing of the sound going on. I know the noise cancelling function is software based so wonder if this is getting in the way, as it were? I can find no way to turn it off though.
So without root, it's unlikely to find a solution?
Shame.

Have any of you found a solution to this problem? I have Bose head phones, of very good quality, and the volume when using them is low. The volume control in the Settings in the Z2 tablete only increases volume until half way through the available movement of the control, and when moved further to the right it won't increase volume at all.
The actual volume through the built in speakers is loud enough.
On my IPad 3 the volume is much louder with head phones.
Hello!
I own a Alcatel OneTouch 4033D phone with rooted Android 4.2.2. The sound coming off the phone at first, before i tweaked some things was a bit quiet so i went to the engineer mode and raised it. But throughout having this phone the bass is sort of lacking and i cant really feel it. Ive used many types of headphones and they all sound the same so its the phones fault. Ive used viper4android and always receive a fake bass. When i increased the volume of the bass, other frequencies got lower. I know there could be some sound compression going on as the volume becomes lower only if i increase the bass. It doesn't happen for the other frequencies. Also there is some hearing aid that this phone has that always pops up when i increase the volume above 80%. Thats what i know . The headphones i use are heavy bass so are the earphones.
Hope you can help me,
TheJuli
