Would anybody please try to make a cab that would somehow lower the incall volume?
I know there are many of us that "hate" our Leo for damaging our ears! Please help us fix that!
Don't point us to HTC support! Have been trying that for about 7 weeks now, with no real result but pathetic fixes.

First off I will be moving this thread to general when I have finished responding.
Secondly, can you explain your problem a little better please. If you really mean turn the in-call volume down, ie NOT when the phone is in speakerphone mode, you can do this now by simply holding the down volume key while in the call to make it happen.
If this is not what you mean then have another go at explaining yourself.
Cheers

unless i've read this wrong i think you win the worst question of the year award...lol
as above, just turn down the volume.
sorry to but in here and sorry if its a noob question but i've had the same problem...
when i answer a call the volume is so loud everyone around me can hear the call!
now i've tried clicking the side key to lower the volume but it goes to the black screen with the bar and silent and vibrate on there and its only on 6%
I'd want to say (another noob comment) that i have sometimes found the sound is irregular, sometimes its low but normally very loud... isnt there meant to be a function where you place the phone next to you're ear and it lowers the volume so its not damaging you're ears?
I think that question is valid. You can only turn it down so much. All sounds on HD2 are too loud; be it call, music, speakerphone, ringing. You can hear speaker breaking at 50%, and your ears bleeding at more. Distortion is present even at low values.
So, I'm with OP, but I want to expand request: how to lower ALL volume on HD2? In other words, instead 10-100%, I want 1-10%.
maybe i just havent noticed due to being pretty much death
the question should be: how to reduce the default incall vol, is that right?
The earpiece and handsfree produce a lot of noise, I agree. there are a few threads already about volume too high and poor sound quality i.e. distorted audio. with earpiece calls try raising the volume first to just above minimum, then keep lowering the volume even when level indicator has reached minimum to reduce call volume further.
Don't be quick to judfe please!

Maybe I haven't explain myself well enough. Why do you and all the smart asses that gave all that cheap advice think that just because we're not mods or developers we're dumb.
It is a well known problem with the HD2. Even with the volume all the way down (while talking on the phone) it's still very loud!!!! Very Very Loud! And I don't mean that trough speaker phone but through the earpiece!
Does this justify my frustration and my legitimate question?
If you can't say nothing good say nothing at all!
thank you!
I know of those threads!

We do expect more of the senior members here but then again maybe we're wrong in doing so!
why do you assume I don't know how to use the volume buttons?
It's a well known fact that hd2 is very loud while incall and even with the volume all the way down is still too loud!!!
G
its loud indeed,
I and I would be personally intrested in lowering the top volume, so highest settings are more reasonable, and stepping down from that actually make it lower sensibly
I had this issue with the call volume being too loud even when turned down, and sometimes it would distort/crackle with certain words/letters. I used the following registry tweak and it's worked absolutely perfectly for me. I've used it on the old ROM and the latest.
HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\inCall AND InCall2
Change the value of InitVol to "2" in both inCall and inCall2
See if that helps

I've done that too but that volume is for incall notifications only. You can verify that by having someone call you while you're engaged in a call. You will barely hear them if you turn the volume to "2".
thank for trying though!

I think the members want you to be more specific. Identify what ROM & radio you are using and what you have done so far to resolve the problem.

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??

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???

The in-call volume on my Wing isn't cutting it for me. I do a lot of work outside and it's difficult to hear with all the background noise from cars and construction etc..[cons of living in a big city]
I searched the forum but didn't find anything specific to the Herald. I tried the other registery edits but they didn't seem to have any effect.
bump anyone??
BUMP!-----
Ok, try this tweak to increase the phone's In-Call volume: Using a registry editor (like PHM RegEdit), navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\Shell Overrides\​Find the SavedInCallVolume value, and open it.
Switch the base to Hexadecimal
Change the Value data to "FFFFFFFF" (eight capital F's)
Restart your phone (by holding down the power button). Now when it boots, your in-call volume should be louder. Tell me if you think it worked!!!
Hi. It didn't work for my P4351. But thank U.

The registry that I just posted right above yours works fine on the Wing, which your phone basically is, I think. But, it can vary from which ROM you are using.

When talking on the phone, tell the person on the other end that you'll be right back. Now, turn your phone so that you can see the left side. Press down on that volume slider a few times. Bam, you got your volume down!
And try posting in the Touch Pro forum next time.

Well, first of all, this is not the Touch Pro forum, though I thought that one is fairly obvious. I will concede that a registry edit for the volume is very common between Windows Mobile devices, but if I were to post Wing issues in the Touch Pro forum, I would be flamed almost immediately. Sorry if I came off as a **** earlier, but there are different forums for a reason. If everyone just posted common problems between devices wherever they felt like, pretty soon everything would be unorganized. Then when I wanted to search the Herald forum for something specific, results would come up with other phone's problems.
hi guys,
i still have a list of hd2 issue yet to be solve, can any kind soul reply with solutions here in sequence.
1) when i am on my wired earpiece, the volume is so max that it can be unbearable at times. i know i have the volume rocker to up and down the volume to suit my hearing but then if i lower my volume it also carried the low volume to the connected calls. is there a workaround for this?
2)when i am on a connected call, i can hear hissing sound which is so irritating and the other party on my line ask if i'm on speakermode. workaround? volume is soft as well by the way.
3)phone hangs alot and i have to remove the cover and battery, the usual standard procedure. i know it could be manila.exe accumulating resources so high that it can be disruptive. the only solution i have now is restart at periodic time to maintain phone usefulness.
4)Weather not updating.
5)Flash player on HD2 if there is.
i cant think of anymore now.. maybe later..
sometimes when i felt my phone was stable for a few days it hangs unexpectedly. but there so much tweaking that needs to be done on this phone that i have to take a risk bricking the phone. there is really endless tweaking to this phone. imagine if i were to hardreset and reinstall all tweaks and stuffs .. it will be a nightmare when i have gone so far in tweaking it.
thats WM..

My HD2 is ear-piercingly loud during a call even when i turn the volume down to a min.
I have searched the forum but cant find a definitive answer to lower the volume even further....there must be a work-around!
When i am at work, nearly the whole office can hear the other person talking to me, it's quite embarrassing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Its a known bug, several people have contacted HTC about this.
They have said they are going to release a hotfix for it, quite as to when and if they even are is another thing.
oh ok then.
i take it, there will be info posted on this forum when/if something has been released?
If you are talking about the same problem I have, there is a temporary solution.
What I find is that when I am dialling, the volume is terribly loud. However if I press the volume up one notch, then down - it goes to the correct volume.
Seems there is a default minimum that overrides the user defined level, but once you alter the user defined level, it takes notice.
Odd, but works for me.
I have never had this issue, but I use Volumex (http://volumex.jdbp.mobi). Gives me a better control of it. Give it a try
Hi,
For some reason my phone will automatically drop the volume to 1/4 the full volume.
Even if I just made a call (and adjusted it to full) then go to call someone else it will drop.
any ideas ?
Thanks

I had the same problem, when I answerd a call the volume was at 1/4 even after turning it up in previous calls. This (taken from forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4840214&postcount=12) fixed part of it. Now when I answer a call the volume is always at max.

I'm using the stock ROM for Att's Pure. I still think the sound quality isn't quite up to par with my old tilt(kaiser).
I tried the other steps listed at the thread above but couldnt get them to work. When I changed the path to the new AudioPara3_ATTMax.csv file I got no sound like it was mute.

I guess that is why I've never experienced this because one of the first things I do is replace the AudioPara file.

Yeah, there was a set of 3 versions for Low, Mid and High w/Dist floating around but I didn't care for the distortion on high, this one works much better.
Im not sure what I am doing wrong. I copied the new file and pasted it to the windows folder and over writ the old one. Soft reset the phone and cant really tell any difference in the the volumes. Now you say this is supposed to change all volumes and not just the earpiece volume right?
"All Volume"
I'm a little skeptical here. Will "All Volume" affect the G Sensor activated auto lower ring volume when phone is pick up that is working now.

There's definitely a difference on my phone. Speaker phone and ear piece volumes increase, although I do not think it affects bluetooth.
I've attached the really loud one if you want to try it. You will most certainly hear the difference but I do not use this one because it distorts at full volume.

Volume reduction on pickup will still function (may be slightly louder than it was originally, but it will still reduce the volume.)
