BT volume - can't longer adjust

Weird. My volume control no longer works if I try to adjust BT headset volume by using volume slider. Suddenly. Anoyne knows how to bring it back to life?
TIA

Did you install the new AKU2 ROM update?
I think this changed the BT volume behavior.

Yes, I did. Why it alway like that with M$??? Why remove such a usefull feature??

I do see your point but for me I was actually glad the behavior changed - I always have the volume up to maximum for when I hold the JAMin to my ear for regular calls but when it pairs with my car's handsfree it was always too loud and distorted.
I was always adjusting the volume up or down on the device depending on where I was.
Now after the new ROM I just set the device on max and the car volume the way I like it and I'm all set.

manually increase the BT headset volume

Is there a way to increase the volume of the BT headset through the phone...louder than the "slider" allows. I got a Jawbone, and it's PAINFULLY low in volume, even with the volume slider all the way up. And this $100+ headset has no volume controls (yay!). Any ideas? Thanks!

Uh, yes the Jawbone has a volume control... did you bother to read the manual??? The only drawback to the volume control is that it only cycles up to the max, then starts at the beginning - so no volume down...
Whoops I assumed you were a noob and didn't bother to read things - now that I saw the name...
It is possible if you're using the BT Audio script that the volume on the Jawbone doesn't work while in that mode. Try switching it to no audio reroute and try pressing the "Jawbone" on the headset. That's the volume adjustment.

I actually agreed with you until I finally figured out the problem with mine. I called AT&T because doing what pkley wasn't working and I figured maybe they would know or send me a new one (if this one wasn't working). I actually had to reset it...someHOW i managed to fawq it up and it wasn't allowing me to increase the call volume. Once I reset it, I was able to turn the volume up and now i'm happy as can be

Know what you mean, I thought the noise cancelling and auto volume adjust quit working on my first one so I swapped it out at AT&T. I'm pretty sure the issue is the non-standard VC I'm using to make it work thru the headset... Ah well, gain some, loose some...

sound problem

I used this rom for the last 2 days itis working nicely apart from the low sound volume .....Is there a solution for this?

?
low sound? mine sounds like always... it have good sound volume! But if you want you can control Bass & Trable with this program...
try to install the sound fixes.
I hope this help....

Still the sound is low

i noticed that sometimes sound becomes lower than usual if u talk and the phone and then hangup. i dont know why but it seems to work by holding the hangup button for ~ 5 secs or pressing it several times . maybe a Radio version issue ?

low music sound and phone!!!!

Notebook can please check ur inbox ? thanks

lollll the both things are on top loll...
you must now that tcmp have in equalizer a pre amplifier that give a litel more son, is threre a pre amplifier to phone?

If the low volume problem is while you're talking on the phone, there is a separate volume control for "in call". Pushing both sliders in the speaker control to the top won't change the "in call" setting. You have to push the sound control rocker on the side of the case while you're actually on the phone to access that one.

My XDA IIs also hv the same problem.
Before I flash the rom it's work fine.
But now the sound, ringtone and even on phone call also very low. But if use headset then it's working fine. Why?

Graphic equalizer

I listen to the internet radio through the loudspeaker, never with earphones. Consequently I can't use the audiobooster so I was wondering, is there a standalone graphic equalizer that will work without having headphones attached? I use Wunder Radio.
Also, as a secondary issue, the volume control is a problem. I have to use the up/down volume control on the side of the handset but this means that when I lower the radio volume (even the lowest setting is way too loud), my system volume is then on super-quiet setting after I've closed my radio....and I don't hear my text alerts etc.
Is there a way to adjust the volume in apps without adjusting the phone volume settings?

I'm not sure about the graphic equalizer but you can sort your sound issue by going to Settings>Sound & Display and switching the Single volume setting to off. That will allow you to change system sounds (including the volume of your radio software) without affecting the ring volume.

Use SRS WOW. Search it.

It is precisely the system volume which is my problem, this governs text alert notifications amongst other things. Once you have set system volume levels in the sounds menu, they should stay 'set'. I don't like this ability to adjust them using the volume control on the side of the handset - that should be reserved solely for in-call volume adjustments and application volume adjustments.

Thanks Dude, I'll check it out! If I find it...

DHD incall volume

Hi, I tried to search for it, but found nothing.
My Fathers DHD has an in-call volume that is so low that you just can't hear anything if you are in an environment which is even a little noisy...
I don't have the same problem on my own Desire Z..
I'm wondering if it's a DHD problem, or just a faulty front speaker in my fathers device?
thanks

Mine in-call volume is pretty low too, especially low if you compare it to my old Nokia N95.

so.... anyway to fix it? apps?

You must try X10

Good one !!! X10 is really the worst out there , had it for about two weeks. Desire HD is ok on volume, i use about 60 % of volume power and the sound is loud and clear enough.

Low in call volume
I have agree the in call volume is pretty bad for a phone of this specification. I've tried different ROMs and Radio but its just plain bad.
Really need a DSP manager style hack to make this better.
For now try repositioning the phone on your ear. I hold it so the mic is a few inches away from my mouth and that angle helps with the in call volume. Not a natural position though!

There is a very crude fix for the low volume problem (ignore the "volume is fine" bull****, the volume is crap). Use speakerphone. Seriously. But use speakerphone like an ordinary phone. Turn it on and hold the phone in the normal way for a voice call. It really is much louder. Of course others will hear the conversation - but at least you will hear it pretty clearly. Ridiculous solution, I know, but it's a ridiculous problem.

I've been doing just that along with the DSP manager fix so thanks for not making me look mad
My colleage has the same phone and says in call volume is ok - duh hello!

for starters no1's input on here is "bull****" just because you dont like the call volume dosent mean others find it as problematic as you..... no need to call other peoples views bull****, just because they dont agree with you.

Just tried this as a fix for my very low in call volume, it worked, but a bit crackly, I will try for a few hours and update.
Running for about 2 hours now, no probs, crackly line is bearable, at least i can hear people now.
