Volume level differences between cooked and original ROMS - P3600 General

Hi All,
I was wondering anyone out there is experiencing the same issues as myself and hopefully can tell me how to correct the problem.
If I install a cooked WM 6.1 ROM (could be any number of them, ceM, NIAX, etc) the volume through the earpiece (not BT headset or wired headset) is terribly low (to the point I can't use the device). I have configured the volume to be FULL (high) but still it's impossible to hear.
If I install the OEM WM 6 ROM from HTC (or Dopod) the volume is A LOT louder (but not necessarily great quality).
Can anyone tell me where the settings for volume might be contained in the Registry or otherwise? I have tried various changes under HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\ but nothing seems to flick the switch, so to speak.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
WC

Almost same problem here!
I wish to rise the volume of the internal speaker!
It is a matter of registry,or what?
Thanks in advance.

let me know.
thnks

thanks for sharing
I'll let you know...

Masalism,
Thanks for your post, I have given it a shot and get the following result. The volume is definately louder, but I have no volume control with the jog dial on the side of the phone. Also the quality in the earpiece is quite distored, possibly from the volume......?
Many thanks for your suggestion, if you have any other ideas, I'm all ears.

Update:
Hi All, I have discovered that "Schaps WM6 4.30 ROM" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355506 has, for me, the best volume level and control.
Just thought I'd share my findings.

WangChung, still the problem remains! Anyone know how to solve this problem without trying several Roms?

incoming ring
Additionally - I hear no incoming ring whatsoever in the earphones. The phone is ringing according to its settings, but I do not hear it independent wheter or not I am listening the audio player (core, win) or not.

im in the same boat i guess

maybe i didn't make my self clear.
i have a problem with SPEAKER PHONE.
i can bearly hear it! the same volume as regular earphone!
i was wondering how can i fix it?
Yes,
The quality of speaker phone on O2 XDA II mini is not as good as my old Nokia handphone.
But, you can try to edit the registry with PHM Regedit. It does help in sound quality (but not perfect). I forgot which registry need to edit. But you can find on this forum threat.
Make sure you also set the speaker phone mode (press phone button, green one, for 2 seconds).
Make sure the volume is high enought.
Hope can help.
Best regards,
Arto
thanks for your help, But i couldnt find the Tweak needed in the registry....
i need help, i press the green button twice, it says "Speakerphone on"
But: it is very very weak...

i'm sure i'm not the only one with this problem.

Dude what are you talking about. Nothing you have said makes any sense. The only know registry edit for audio is the one related to the normal earpiece - not the speakerphone. And that one is not reallt any use either.
The bad speakerphone on the JAM is known problem. And there is no soultion so far.

There is a threat about what I do on my O2 XDA II mini. It sound good on my mini for talking like normal handphone.
For Speakerphone, I give up. It is not loud.
Best regards,

The good news is that you're not the only one indeed - I have the same problem. The speakerphone mode is exactly as loud as the normal mode. The bad news is that I also do not have a simple solution.
In another forum, several people reported the same problem after they upgraded to the Radio Stack 1.05 and restored their previously backed-up data. A hard reset (some say: re-applying the radio stack upgrade) seemed to cure the problem for them. However, restoring a backup after that made it re-appear.
I did the upgrade, but not a restore. And now I also have the problem, so I guess it's some software overwriting some setting. Unfortunately I have no idea which. :-( Before the update the volume was a lot better.
Will try a hard reset tomorrow, and see if I can find out anything.
Cheers,
Daniel
"fixed"
ok, this problem was resolved after a HR, but!
as soon as i try to do SPRITE RESTORE for the new BACKUP (which i made after the HR) the volume comes back down!!
so!
no usefull fix..:-(

Another volume problem

I think this is a different problem to the ones already posted, I'm new to this so please bear with me.
The microphone on my XDA mini s is rubbish so instead I like to use the supplied headset which is fine. You could hear calls and music at the right levels and more importantly meant I wasn't shouting....
but now the volume coming through the headset is very very low, the slider on the headset is pushed to the max and the slider on the phone is also at the top. Without changing any settings playing music in Windows Media player is fine. Why would the voulme for calls suddenly be different to the volume levels in other apps?
Hope somewhere here can help.
Thanks
I have the same problem, since upgrading to 2.24 rom, over bt headset. Hope someone who knows more reads this too...
I haven't upgraded any roms, this problem has just appeared. Another part of this problem is the person I'm calling via the headset say they get an echo of their own voice. Anyone one got any ideas?
Thanks
Problem solved, it was sent back to O2 and they said they changed the circuit board!! Easy fix really!!! :?
man, i dont want to send mine in... i need it on a day-to-day basis for my business. how long were you without it?

Low Speaker Volume

Is there a way (registry hack, any other program) to increase the volume of the speaker during the phone conversation? I also own a Hermes and the speaker volume of the Trinity is so low compared to it that I can sometimes barely hear the other party. Any help?

Are you aware that turning the wheel on the left side you can change the volume while in a phone call?

I have the exact same problem. When I am in a public place and when there is some noise around, I hardly hear the person I am speaking to. Even when I turn the wheel on the left to maximum
I have spent a lot of time looking for a solution but I have just seen that for some qtek devices, there is the key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN] with values EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME and RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME, that allow to modify the max output level of the speaker. But I didn't find that key in the trinity
Even if I turn the scroll wheel all the way up, the volume is too low.
The audiogain registry key (although it doesn't exist in trinity's registry) is actually to improve the sound quality of the microphone and not the volume of the phone.
When I first make a call, when I hear the first ring, it is actually louder but then from the second ring on, the volume decreases at least by 25%.
Anybody with any ideas?
anyone figured how to increase call volume yet?
I would also appreciate a solution to improve the Speakerphone volume.
I would appreciate any fix to increase the volume of anything!
The included stereo headphones are completely useless! My god, why did they even put a volume dial on the headphones? I can barely hear anything with this crap phone...
A pity considering every other features works just perfectly.
ive got the same problem, before the bass fix, the volume was high but with a really unstable and bad sound... after the fix, there is kind of better sound but in phone calls the volume is low.. i really start hating this device......
I've been using my new p3600 for two weeks now, and this low speaker volume issue is killing me. I've been a Noia user for years, and the difference in sound quality during normal calls is simply unacceptable. The p3600 has so many awesome capabilities for such a small phone, but when it comes to the most basic function, I'm quite disappointed with.
I would also appreciate a fix to improve the quality of the speaker.
Cheers
i can say that this is not the only problem, there are so many others that i stopped thinking of this one... im going for a final hard reset now.. im really tired...im sick of it.....
Someone has an idea ?
Has anyone found away to increase the incall volume yet ???
Someone posted this registry hack elsewhere (use at your own risk of course)
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER
2. ControlPanel
3. SoundCategories
4. InCall
5. InitVol
6. Change the DWORD value to 6 (Default = 2)
7. Click Done
Wait approx 10-15 seconds before testing.
PS. If the registry key or value doesn't exist, you can always try creating it.
Has anyone tried this??
What was the outcome??

Yes i tried it and it never worked for me ...
i can also confirm that this does NOT work on the trinity, anyone else have any bright ideas...
Ah ha...
I just bought Dopod D810(HTC Trinity) for my wife yesterday, and just now she complained to me about this "low on call volume" to me. And since I'm the one recommended her the phone I have to responsible. LoL.
But despite this problem, all of other features are flawless, complete, with excellent case design. Kudos to HTC!!
Btw, this is kind of dejavu for me since it also happened on my Eten M600 back then. This issue can only be solved on driver level, i.e: patch the RILgsm.dll, or include this patched driver in newly cooked ROM.
On which, I don't have the necessary skills to do that... -sigh-
Any expert users can help us???

Keyboard "click" sound volume. Independent Control?

Hi folks,
Hope you can help.
I've switched off haptic feedback on the keyboard and find it a lot more usable without it. I've activated the "clicky" sound on the keys as this suits me best, however, the volume of the click driving the wife and my co-workers mental. I even got some dirty looks this morning on the train from others as I furiously (not really) typed out some emails.
Problem is, the keyboard sound volume seems to be tied in directly with the system sounds volume!
I need the system sounds high for text message alerts etc, but then, the keyboard is super loud; bring it down to an acceptable level and I can't hear texts coming in etc. To be honest even on low setting its excessively loud..
Is there any way around this? A reg tweak, substituting the wav file with a lower volume one? I don't even know where to start to be honest and appreciate any help you guys can give.
Thanks in advance!!!

Sorry guys, just saw this thread. Didn't come up earlier for some reason:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588179&highlight=Keyboard+Volume
I tried the CAB there and it didn't lower the volume noticably. Is there a way to lower if further?
I've made a quieter version (attached). It's probably too quiet now
It's probably best if you uninstall the last version first, a soft reset is required after installation
Thanks soooo much!!
Installed and its better already!
Thanks again.

[Q] Low incoming audio on Tattoo

First of all:
Thank you for your great work and to BE.
I solved and forgot to throw my smartphone out the window thank to you.
Second:
i just installed on my tatto the: CyanogenMod 7.0.0-RC2.2 (7007) 2.3.3
and it's really great.. everything works fine and i can't imagine someday i would use a 2.3.3 on my htc tattoo..
but there is somenthing that doesn't work well for me:
the incoming audio is really really low...
in my settings i set the audio level at the top but is still to low..
is that an issue somebody else found? is there a way to solve it?
i already searched in the forum but i didn't find anything..
thank you for you attention
Simmonsstummer
On that rom is inclided DSP Equalizer, you can look it up and set your sound.
Or, you can try Louder volume hack.
Hope it helps.
i already tried but that is not affecting speaker volume in any way.
i tried also the audiohack 1.4 but nothing...
i need the voice speaker for the incoming calls louder..
nothing works for me...
is there a way to manually change the audio code to improve the volume of the incoming call?
