Hi
I have searched but couldnt find anything before you ask
i was hoping there is an ap out there that can increase the volume of the sound that comes out of the ear piece.
Any one heard of anything?
thanks
Tim
digitaly sound have a surden number of bits often 16bit
mex volume would then be 32500 and -32500
if you inc the sound more then the bit resolution then it clip
and the loudest notes will just they as they are because you cant
really inc them more then they al ready are
when those sampled bits comes to the digital to analog converter which feed the headset they are made into a sound signal
so you cant really do it unless you convert all sounds on the fly and sounds which already use the full bit range would be cliped and sound horrible
my sugestions is made the sounds you require to be louder, louder on the pc and test the results to see if the sound gets a poor quality by the inc
or get a headset with an amp (those require batteries) and let them inc the volume of your signal
Shoot me down if this is a silly question, but is there anyway we can increase the voume on this device other than standard volume?
The ring tones are too low and when I attached a bluetooth headset the mp3 playback is far too low to make it a good walkman device. I know about the wired headphone boost, but that is useless with my bluetooth wireless headset.
It's also too low for tomtom use and as external speakers. I think the speaker could handle more output. I dotn mind a little bit of distortion just so i can hear it.
I dunno if thsi can been done in registry or is some hardcoded in firmware
Many thanks
Use HD Tweak to disable the EU 100 db limit and increase the sound level

Thankyou very much!
You can also copy the mp3 file from the device to your computer, and open it in Audacity:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Once it's opened, choose "amplify", from the effects menu, bump it up a few dB, then export it back to MP3 and back into the phone.
I am having issues with volume through the bluetooth audio. I am unable to find a mp3 player that has a preamp included in the equalizer. Is that not possible through android??? This is my first Android phone.
Is there a hack to boost volume?? Or is there a player that boosts volume??
I have to fix this fast...I work in a factory and need to hear my jamz
There's not a hack for it yet.
anyone know of a player with a preamp??
I was thinking the same thing, the volume is very low when playing music. I've tried with both my Bose In-Ear and Klipsch S4 headphones; both were barely audible above a lawn mower.
I agree volume is low,....waiting on an app, hack,...something.
so has there been any advances in volume boosting???
my main concern is my bluetooth volume...i need an mp3 player with a preamp or something that actually boosts system volume...
anyone????
I commited my volume hack to my github about a week ago, toast pulled it so now any kernel using ToastCFH's source will also have my audioboost code in it.
It in theory should boost the output volume of every interface on the device, but the only two that I've noticed to show a real increase are the phone headset (in call one) and the Bluetooth line out.
I don't know what kernels use it ATM but I know the FPS fix for Novatec panels implements it, just look around, most probably have it by this point since it seems like everyone is using toast's source.
Its not all BT that is quiet though. The Jawbone Icon is pretty quiet, as was the Blueant T1. BT audio through the LiquidAux is ok but not super loud. But the Moto H17txt is, well, louder than hell! Have to turn phone bt vol almost all the way down. 4 diff devices, 3 volume levels...
My concern is just with audio out through wired stereo headphones. I consider myself a self made audiofile and the dynamic quality of the audio output of the EVO is lacking IMO.
One way to go (audiophile quality, but pricey) is the Headroom total airhead. $99.
Runs on 4AA's and is 1/8" in and out.
You can find the older versions for less on e-bay.
I've got a headbanger amp, same basic thing as the Headroom.
Link also has some cheaper options like the boostaroo.
If you are DIY, there's instructions to be found to build the headbanger too.

Edit: Still can't post links so just google headphone amp and you'll be heading in the right direction.
Just an idea, google search "mp3 gain" this will normalize youre mp3s but you can also boost the volume by using a higher gain level when you normalize. This will clip the mp3 but i just kept a copy of the original file. I set mine to 110 percent then applied. Worked great.

Is there any way to make the lowest headphone audio setting any quieter?
I am a big fan of in ear headphones, but the problem I always face is that the lowest setting on audio devices is too loud for these types of headphones. I was wondering if there were any tricks to make the lowest sound setting any quieter.
I'm also wondering where the limitation is, either hardware limit, audio driver, or the android API?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
On a side note, it seems like there is just one "Media Volume" setting state regardless of whether the headphones are plugged in or out. This is somewhat annoying as if I was listening to something on the loud speaker at full volume, and then plug in my headphones to listen to some music later without remembering to change the volume my ears would start to bleed
+1. I like how my previous winmo device had system volume AND player volume which stacked. Set both controls to minimum and I could enjoy my music late at night before going to sleep without having those crescendos making me jump out of my bed.... but with Android, I have yet to find something similar.
I noticed this too but when I switched to a different set of in-ear headphones it changed. Maybe buy a different pair of headphones?
My momentum in ears didn't get very loud so I tried disabling the normalize volume setting and this increased output on so far all of my music.
Didn't think the lower quality audio chip would be a problem but it might be a thing to consider if you use high impedance headphones, you might need to use an additional amp.
