So, I'm experiencing what everybody else is with this ROM. That initial volume level starts out soft and gradually increases to the max that I have it set to. Some have stated they like this and that's fine. But, I HATE it :evil: . I can never hear my phone ring anymore if it's in my pocket. Has anybody found a possible registry key or setting somewhere to turn this off?
And if any AT&T folks are listening.. I'd like a setting in the volume area to turn this off or on.
Phone Profile
Have you check under phone profiles... Ascending Ring change to Standard Ring
Dustoff
I don't have a phone profile, or i should say i don't see any where for that option. In the phone settings area the Ring Type is set for Ring. There is an option for "Increasing Ring" but that's even worse than it is already. I don't think this is what I'm looking for.
Since the WM2003 upgrade on my SX56, 've noticed issues with the speakerphone volume. I can barely hear it in fact. Any thoughts on this one?
Fiddled around with the volume setting, moved it up and down, and the now the volume issue seems resolved. Can't say for sure if that's what resolved it, but it's fine now.
I'm experiencing the same problem with the AT&T rom.. I'm going to take a look around in the registry later on... before I go installing any apps
Well I have taken a look @ the processes running and can't see anything obvious that would be doing the volume thing..
So I have had a poke about in the registry and have found a section with sound profiles and it has an attenuation property, I have tried adjusting this, and deleting it but still no good
Also there is an entry in the registry called Hack and mentioned Vol in the string... but it didn't make any difference when I deleted that either :roll:
If anyone thats a bit more acomplished than myself with the PPC Phone could take a look and find a solution to this, i'm sure many users would appreciated it
Has anyone figured out how to make the volume level constant yet?
Any solutions to get the volume working well on A.30.09 ENG yet?
Nope. I just put my phone volume on next to the top setting and the system volume two levels below it. Works fine then. As long as the system volume is two levels below it will not graduate the sound.

Another thing try ur Reminder set an Alarm you'll notice that you cannot change the Alarm1 ringtone thus the sound stays low ..I tried many things in the registry and no luck as well I wish would some1 help us to resolve this Issue, but!! I made contacts with att's support ,I told them about this problem thus I'm not the only one who's experiencing this, lots of ppl sees this ennoying , I hope they would help here...
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??

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???

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
WB
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.
tried 'em all

This morning when I revieved a call I could barely here the person talking to me. It was like the in call volume was turned to the lowest setting.
I am just past the 14 day return period so I have to do a warranty exchange. Has anyone else had or heard of such problem?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
if you haven't already seen and done this, try this:
I had this same problem. One easy solution I found was turning the HAC mode on (found under Settings > Call Settings). This increases the call volume a good bit. But it doesn't change the bluetooth or wired headset volume.
Unless Im missing the point, just use your volume rockers and adjust the volume up. Its pretty loud when you crank it up.
this may not even be your problem.
For most of my calls the volume rocker gave plenty of headroom. I just had to turn the HAC mode on to boost the volume for my one friend that's a "low talker". Same person but on my G1 the volume was fine.
turning on hac mode helps thanks

Im not going to speak for OP but i know that for me whenever i answer a call its at 3/4 volume even whenever i turn it up the next call i pick up will still be at 3/4 volume. seems to be a "feature" so you dont get blasted by someone on the other end however at the same time its annoying when i talk with my wife all the time and shes soft spoken.
It's not the rocker, I have it turned all the way up though I noticed that changing the volume makes no difference, the sound is still extremely low. My problem is most likely a hardware issue.
I called in for a warranty exchange and I should be getting a new phone any day now

Thats because companies do not train their customer service reps on the devices. Then they transfer you over to "technical support", who are the same people just going through basic troubleshoot software provided by the REAL techincal folks at samsung. Calling them always insults my intelligence, because ill try to speed the call up by saying "ive already tried all of the basic troubleshooting methods", yet they will continuously ask me things like "did you try a reboot?", "did you pull the battery?".
Bottom line, these companies cannot afford to pay thousands of Sombionixes and Cyanogens to handle tech support hahaha
OK, everybody is claiming that low in call volume is fixed after 3/8 kernel, but try this: dial a number by keypad (with dial pad tones enabled) and make a call. listen to the volume level. Then disable dial pad tones and call again. there should be a huge difference in volume level. You can experiment the same thing by quickly enabling and disabling speakerphone while in a call. I guess the problem is, when a sound is played back (like a ringtone or dialpad tone) in call volume is reduced for a short time. This can be eliminated for outgoing calls by disabling dial pad tone or waiting 2 seconds before pressing call. But for incoming calls, even disabling ringtone is no good. I also tried LVH v3.6 to boost the in call volume but no good. I tried almost all builds, ROM and radio combinations. With the new kernels, all have this problem. The most important function for me is the phone part, anyone has a solution for this?
Did you really need to make a new thread for this? Couldn't this been posted in one of the -post your questions here- topic?
Fix: No, there's no obvious fix (yet). Best fix is to use the supplied (or custom) ear-piece. Never any problem with that.
I felt the need to make a new thread as the old threads were referring to old kernels and most people tend to read only the first post. I wanted to present my observations, which I believe are not stated before, in the original post. Sorry for bothering you and thanks for the info.

I understand why you'd want to open a new thread for this, but this topic will just as much go down under as soon as it's solved or (more not-so-useless) threads get added later on.
Your observations + results could be stickied/hotlinked in the answer topic if they seem to be right-on the money. That way we keep it all nice and tidy, ánd more people would find a quick answer
I have the same exact problem. I hope there is a fix for this soon. Searched multiple times, but haven't found any answer.
I notice when you pick up an incoming call. The volume starts from soft and goes a little louder after about 2-3 seconds.
hi im also suffering from a low in call volume as well with my HD2 has there been any way to resolve this?
iam facing low rington and media volume , i can hardly hear my ringtone when on other room
I disagree with maseo I found this thread useful,
THANKS DUDE
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
hey, try this
when u wait for the other side to pick up the phone or u pressed the answer button when a call comes in
press on the Speaker button to use the speaker phone, then turn it off
repeat it again once
your volume will get lounder just like in WM.
Edit: oops. it was just a hardware failure, the front speaker had bad connection, there are another speaker in the chassis that worked.
thanks
i press the speaker on & off and then is more louder. i wish this will be fix soon.
IT WORKS!!
Hey, so I was/am having this problem but i tried the mute/unmute during a call and it worked. Incoming and outgoing. Only problem is seems to be low every new phone call. So i have to do the mute/unmute at the beginning of each call for it to be ok!
Hopefully there is a permanent fix soon?
Thanks for the post.
I have this same problem. I read somewhere someone having a fix on this.
One more thing, any of you guys had the robo-voice?
Got the same issue. Still no fix out there?
