Speakers - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hey,
I have an exec and the speakers arent that loud, cant really hear it ringing is there a limit on the volume, like a restrcition and if so can it be removed?

Noticed the same thing very weak speakers/audio output. Tend to miss at lot of calls/txts when just out walking in town.
I think this could be done, maybe not via the reg. If you look at TCPMP there is a pre-amp option which does get the sound levels up (sadly only for whats playing within TCPMP), so the hardware can make more noise.
What we need is a goodly programmer to write a pre-amp program to catch all the phone (system) sounds amp them up and output to the speaker.
I can but dream !

this would be the same as pre-amping the ring-tone on your PC and transfer it to your phone. no need to do this "live" on the phone. tcpmp only maximizes the input-level of the audio, it does not make the speaker any louder really.

Ear Piece volume

Hi
I have searched but couldnt find anything before you ask
i was hoping there is an ap out there that can increase the volume of the sound that comes out of the ear piece.
Any one heard of anything?
thanks
Tim
digitaly sound have a surden number of bits often 16bit
mex volume would then be 32500 and -32500
if you inc the sound more then the bit resolution then it clip
and the loudest notes will just they as they are because you cant
really inc them more then they al ready are
when those sampled bits comes to the digital to analog converter which feed the headset they are made into a sound signal
so you cant really do it unless you convert all sounds on the fly and sounds which already use the full bit range would be cliped and sound horrible
my sugestions is made the sounds you require to be louder, louder on the pc and test the results to see if the sound gets a poor quality by the inc
or get a headset with an amp (those require batteries) and let them inc the volume of your signal

Pre-Amp development request (Universal)

One of the major problems with the Universal is its low audio output, not so much its playback of MP3, this can normally be sorted with a half decent set of headphones. But its output of system sounds, notifications and phone rings etc which when in a case or pocket are often drowned out by the everyday noise of life.
The hardware is clearly able to produce louder volumes, TCPMP and windows inbuilt media player clearly show this is possible.
So I`m calling on any programmers willing to give writing a system pre-amp module a bash to do so.
Don't have to be fancy, a simply sliding volume conntrol for pre-amp and maybe a test sound button.
I`m sure this would make a lot of UNI owner happy.

Adjust volume to 1-19%?

I've seen a lot of posts about volume being too quiet, but none about being too loud. I have a Jabra wired in-ear stereo headset, and putting the system volume to it's lowest, non-muted, setting of 20% while turning down the volume of Slide2Play to it's lowest, it is still too loud. It's not too loud to listen to, I just mean I want to be able to make it barely audible if I have to, for instance if a co-worker says something I don't want to be forced to take the headset off.
Is there any way to adjust the volume to somewhere in the 1-19% range rather than 20% being the lowest?
The headset is pretty comfortable, so I'd hate to have to buy an out-of-ear model which I imagine would be less loud at the lowest setting.
Mind you, I don't want to lower the overall volume. I like that it can be loud too, I just need it to be a little more quiet when I'm in the zone trying to bend a piece of code or SQL statement to my will so I don't miss what people say around me.. hehe.
just open ur headset and put a higher value resistor in it.
hope u understand my words.
Thanks for the advice but I'm not much of an electrician.
I'm more looking for a program, cab or registry tweak that allows for greater control of the volume rather than the simple Mute, Quiet, Medium, Loud, Louder, Very Loud settings that our BAs come with.
I found a cab that allows you to adjust the bass and treble which was very handy, but I can't seem to find one that allows more refined volume levels all around.
hv u tried the SRS WOW HD? it has a tab to adjust the input and output gain it decreases the volume level.

Hmm, that SRS WOW HD does help. Although it seems to like to completely mute my device if I unplug my headphones, or plug them in. It kind of seems like I need to reset the device after I plug or unplug my headset.
Kind of annoying, but music does sound better and I can make it more quiet. Thanks for the suggestion.
Anyone know how to keep it from disabling sound on my device when I plug/unplug my headset?

HD2 Sound Quality (Tones)

I know about the audio booster, but that's just for music (isn't it?). Does anyone else find that ring and message tones sound very shrill and tinny on the HD2? I found an app (Advanced Configuration Tool), which had some sound settings, but didn't seem to do a lot, so I was wondering if there's an app, or a cab somewhere that would 'tone down' the sound, and make it a little 'warmer', if you get what I mean?
Unfortunatly due to it being a tiny mono speaker thats as good as its going to get.
don't expect too much from phone speakers! Just look at the stupid kids walking throught the streets with their cellphones playing their **** music that sounds like crap coming from the tiny speaker. Totally annoying!!
Audio Booster just works when you have connected headphones/speakers via the 3.5mm jack or paired with a bluetooth speaker (I think). Otherwise just turn down the volume a little so it doesn't sound that thin and bad. I always use 2/3 of the max volume and my ringtone mp3s sound ok.
The HD2 mono speaker doesn't come close in terms of sound quality to the Rhodium. It's unfortunate, but I guess HTC couldn't cram another speaker into the HD2. It is pretty darn thin.
Oh well, I guess I'm stuck with it, then. Thanks for the replies.

External speaker increase low volume

Anyway to make the external speaker volume louder through a hack or app? Its way to low making it it useless for car navigation but more importantly I can't hear it ringing when I have it in my pocket.
After we manage to run custom roms from NAND, you can use DSPManager, but in the meantime, you can hack your AudioPara.CSV is you know how to.

they could probably increase it with a firmware update not 100% sure
as for ring volume as a work around just open an audio editing program like audacity and increase the volume of an mp3 that you plan to use as a ringtone then copy it to the device and use that it should be louder cause you have increased the volume of the mp3
its nto a fix for everything but its a work around for the ringer at least

AudioPara.CSV is a windows mobile file. This in an android device. Your instructions are useless.
I am also looking to increase audio volume. Mine is quite low, I cant even use speakerphone properly. You cant hear the person.
I also own the samsung galaxy and the desire hd is about half the volume, if that.
I can hardly hear anyone on this phone and the music/podcast playback is ridiculously low. Did anyone in HTC actually use this phone before manufacturing it?
Their donkeys did...
I dont find it that low.
Was about to set a alarm signal and it was too low to hear.
But instead I choose to use a file from the music folder and
it was much louder.
Seamed strange, but the volume is OK!
