Hi Guys
When I have the HTC earphones plugged into my diamond, the volume CAN'T be changed.
It's extremely loud and therefore hurts my ears and damages the speakers.
The volume does NOT go softer when I change the system volume or the volume of Windows Media Player.
This happens ONLY when I play music.
The volume of videos and the radio CAN be adjusted - no problem!
I've never had a decent portable music player.
I really want to listen to music.
Somebody please help me!
got almost the same Problem. I found out: it depends on the rom you are using. With Aztor V7 I could adjust it, and thanks to some configuration tool (Advanced Config or s.th. like that) I could reduce the over all sound volume to an acceptable hight.
With bepes Roms the sound volume was too quite.
My solution: I ordered bluetooth headphones now - with tunable volume. Hopefully that will help, but the volume problem on the Diamond really is nasty....
Well I dont have this problem so it is not a diamond issue, maybe the image you're using?
I seem to remember that at some point I had a similar problem with a previous image but it is gone now. I am running the latest panosha
Of course the volume cannot be changed if the device is in stand-by, you need to turn on the screen and then change it.
I have NOT messed about with the ROM.
Still running the original HTC Rom.
The problem is probably somehow linked to Diamond Tweak or Avenced Config Tool.
I've checked and re-check their settings time and again.
I am stumped.
What 2 do... what 2 do...
Hi
I see this has been discussed on other devices, but not on Diamond/HD as far as i can see.
I have a Sony Ericsson BT Stereo A2DP headset, and it is working just great using built in player.
But a small hitch is that the screen comes on whenever i press the play/pause button, which is quite annoying if the device is in my pocket, as odd things gets pressed.
Anyone have a solution to this (that dosent involve switching to another player, cause i like the built in one)
Thanks in advance.

Install S2U2 (slide to unlock) it won't solve the screen coming on but it does stop random buttons getting activated.
I'm using HD2 with a Jabra BT3030 bluetooth headset and the problem is that even with the lowest volume setting on Jabra the volume is too loud making my ears hurt.
I can work around this by editing the audio files' volume on my computer before transferring them to my phone but that means some extra work so I was wondering if it's possible to change the volume through some registry tweaks on HD2?
I found the bluetooth settings at HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth but can't seem to find anything regarding volume levels.
Is changing the volume possible at all?
Same here! HD2 + BT3030. Voicecall volume is ok, by pressing the volume button on BT3030 the volume control on HD2 is popping up and works as it should.
But if ur listening to music, the BT3030 internal volume control gets back in action, and the lowest setting is still too loud. Changing volume with hardware buttons on HD2 is showing the volume bar but doesnt change the volume.
Any solutions?
I do have the same problem. After testing my HD2 one day with BT3030 I would say all is prefect apart from this issue mentioned and unfortunately this is currently a NO-GO to me. I love my BT3030 and don't want give it away.
A little bit of tweaking maybe will bring some light at the end of the tunnel
Cheers,
LEE
I have the opposite issue with a Plantronics headset: the volume is too too low!
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance
I have the Philips BT Headset.
Volume is very high to start with.
The volume buttons don't respond very well ... but if you hold them down, the volume does eventually change to a sensible level. It will go up and down ... just need to be patient.

Have to push this thread because this problem is killing me. I have a Sony-Ericsson HBH-IS800 headset and everything worked perfect with my Touch HD, but now it's useless for me if I can't change the Music volume.
Any solutions for this problem???
Just found out that the volume controls of the CorePlayer can change the volume
Tried it also with Nitrogen, Windows Media and the Manila Music Player, but CorePlayer is the only one that can change the volume for my Bluetooth headset
/HKLM/software/widcomm/plugin/av >> all the volume settings should be there. try to play with it.
Only found one interesting point: DisableRcVolumeControl. Setting it to 0 ends in a message "the connected BT-headset doesn't support volume control. control the volume on the headset itself".
That's BS, i can control the volume over headset in phonecalls and even if no application is opened it controls the system volume. So still no solution found

I guess you managed in:
menu>tools>settings>Audio page
the Volume and Preamp settings???
How did you set them?
I have a HD2 and BT3030.. Same problem with volume level.
I have tried with Coreplayer as suggest. I cannot turn down the volume on the BT3030, but turning it down in Coreplayer will lower the volume level.
I really hope for a tweak here.
It seems to be the bluetooth connections/software interface that is doíng something wrong.
still playing around with it...
If Coreplayer is player with low volume it will be low volume in the BT3030.
Pressing Play on the BT3030 will start manilla, with low volume as well... unfortunately with the sound from both coreplayer and manilla player. As long as coreplayer is playing (not running) manilla volume will be low. As soon as coreplayer is munted or stopped the volume on the manilla will go up.
Hope this can help some smart tweakers....
I found a similar thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-424565.html
they tweaked with theres files:
Using a registry editor, I've changed the following key values:
HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Config\music_pl ayer_volumn --> 20 (default: 100)
HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Information\vol umn --> 20 (default: 100)
It seems that the default volume level of the HTC player (aka manilla player; I am not right?) is too loud.
I will try and play with this within the next couple of days..

I've just changed the volume at the lower right corner of the home screen of CorePlayer.
Btw it's the same setting as menu>tools>settings>Audio page>Volume.
Preamp is 0, and Volume is at 30.
I am also having a problem controlling the volume when using my SE HBH-DS200 bluetooth headset. Coreplayer's volume control works, but s2p's does not.
It looks like Coreplayer has its own independent volume control, seperate from the system volume. The other media players (s2p, and at a guess all the others mentioned in this thread) use the system volume.
the problem seems to be that the bluetooth audio connection is ignoring the system volume setting. Anyone have an idea of how we can fix this?
Would like to find a solution as well.
I have a Samsung WEP420 BT headset and the volume is too low. I can barely hear the other calling party specially with some surrounding noise.
We need to approach HTC on this issue, it is a obvious bug in the Widcomm bluetooth stack, I had previous Widcomm based HTC phones with the same headsets that had no issues.
This is a copy of my email to HTC, feel free to email them and add any pertinent info:
There is a serious bug with the Widcomm Bluetooth Stack on the HTC HD2. It is impossible to change the volume of any Bluetooth Stereo headset from the phone.
This is critical as most bluetooth stereo headsets do not have a built in volume control and they rely on the phone for volume adjustment.
This makes my HD2 useless as the volume on my bluetooth headset (Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800, or Jabra BT3030) is at %100 all the time.
Please address this issue with a software patch or a system firmware update.
My HTC Nexus One does not suffer from this issue, and previous Widcomm based HTC phones I have owned did not suffer from this bug.
Thanks
Great. Thanks. Hope HTC will really come out with a patch soon!
Here is HTC's reply:
Hello G, I understand how frustrating it can be when a device does not function as expected. I have tested this complaint and found that our test device exibits the same behavior. Adjusting any volume levels on the device itself does not affect the volume output of the headset, with the exception of setting the Windows Media Player Mobile volume to 0%, which will stop audio from coming out of the headset all together. There are no planned patches for the HD2 at this time, but I will submit your concern on this issue to our feedback department for condsideration in any updates that may enter development in the future. If you have any further questions or concers, please feel free to contact us again or check www.htc.com as well. We also invite you to participate in our feedback survey at survey.htc.com/worldwide. We enjoy getting feedback from our customers and look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Joseph
We need to step this up if we ever want it fixed, everyone needs to send a suport request to HTC so that they understand that this is a major issue.

ok just a quick one.
i got my touch today in the post and the first thing i did was flash onyx ultimate rom..all went well or so i thought.
its been fine till i started playing with settings. i tried to set a voice to rotate the screen then i can get full qwerty without having to press the rotate screen key.
since then the speaker stopped working. i no longer get any ring tones or anything from the external speaker at the back..the earpiece speaker is fine but the external rear one used for playing audio and ringtones and oud speaker stopped functioning.
i then decided to try 6.5 to see if that helped but still nothing from the speaker at the rear. it seems to be a perm setting. is there a button on the phone that mutes but doesnt show as muted..volumes are full but still no sound.
or is there a hard reset within onyx that will load all the defualts
for me hard reset was the solution
like there was no sound while playin some midi tones.
& no support for jpeg files
so i done a hard reset & everything again fine
I recently started using my HTC tilt 2 again, but there serious problems I believe could be just software errors. I am running kalhimeo Lite 3.2 rom and I installed s2p 0.83b and while music plays either from the bluetooth headset (Sony ericsson MW600) or from the stock htc headphone adapter box the music stops after a while and the phone will not respond (screen is blank, status led remains blinking, sliding the keyboard or power key does nothing connecting to a power source or PC does nothing) and I have to either A) reset button or B) take the battery out. As of Posting I uninstalled S2U2 and am going to try playing music with the stock lock and see if that works.
Also How do I set S2P to read avrcp controls properly?
any OS rom or music/screen lock program suggestions are appreciated (also might be in wrong forum)
