Hi
Can anyone help?
This is annoying more than stopping me using the phone but when i want to make a phone call the noises of the tone dialing when you press a number are very very faint, have to hold it to my ear to hear it, it wasnt like this yesterday??????
Have checked all the sound settings and volume and they are all high/max but still no joy, spoken to HTC who I could not understand, sounded spanish and he could not do it either...
Keypad volume is linked to the media volume, turn the media volume up in the sound settings and you should be good.
Already done that..... its on max and phone button noise is barely audible....
Just noticed its not just the dialing tones its also the little tick noise you get when you press any icon on the screen, thats quiet too
Have you dropped your phone over night? Is it running stock?

My phone is standard.... has a few apps etc but thats it.
I did drop it a few weeks ago, no visible damage, but im quite sure the dialer noise and click when you tap the screen has just happened.... its not gone its just very very quiet... tried ticking the button to switch it on and off and that has not done anything either, HTC said they didnt know but to do a hard reset
Have you used the fm radio? Sounds odd but I used it once on either the desire or desire hd and when the volume on that was down so was the system volume. Stab in the dark

Ive never used the radio on this phone, i even removed the otter box case to see if that was muffling the noise and its not.... looks like a hard reset then!
Gutted mate, let us know if the reset works.

its a small bub install a free app volume ace and when u open it u'll see a system volume slider.... jst slide up...and here u go...full vol as before...
What do you mean about "its a small bub..."
I will try and find the app, thanks for the info
Just download an app called Quick Settings and adjust the System Volume to max and you can hear the screen taps and other sounds. I had this problem and that app solved it.
I don't know how but I've suddenly got the keypad sounds back at correct volume on phone dialer.. but strangely my qwerty keypad noises have not only returned but now sounds like an old fashioned type writer??? My 4 yr old was messing with it earlier, but I've checked all settings and they haven't changed..
I had the same problem thanks for recommending the app its worked perfectly Your my hero lol Seriously though thanks.
Thanks a lot mate !! Volume Ace is AWESOME \m/ Solved all my problems

Thank you, I had the same problem the OP had. Downloaded volume ace now and my system volume was turned right down.

Hey everyone this is my first post so i apologise if this problem has been discussed at length already.
Ok so my current problem is that my htc hd2 wont make any sound whatsoever when using the rear speaker (so thats any ringing from incoming calls, notifications, videos, music etc..). I have played with the sound settings relentlessly but can't seem to change its current state and I have also done several hard resets. However, when accepting a phone call or when a pair of headphones are inserted into the handset the sound goes through fine, leading me to suspect that it is the rear speaker which is the problem (My speakerphone after accepting a call also doesnt work).
On two occasions I have been playing music on it in hopes for a sign of life and have had sound on very sharp bursts (no more then 2 seconds). In terms of any programs or updates that I have installed on to my handset I havent done anything but apply the updates from the HTC support website.
The problem ocurred on day 2 of using this handset and I have also sent an email to mobiles.co.uk to ask about a replacement handset. However I was having a lot of fun with this phone and wanted to keep it if it could be solved myself so if anybody has any ideas it would be very much appreciated!
Thanks
Try a hard reset. If the problem persists after that, it's certainly hardware related.
Same thing happened to my HD2 today, all sounds just stopped working for some reason, music player ring tone, notifications, everything, did a hard reset and everything works again, it is a bit worrying when it just happened out of the blue like that.

Did you accidentally turn the volume down using the button on the side of the device? Stupidly, system volume can be adjusted using this button.

Yes it can. It either changes both system and ringtone together (if you only use 1), or you have a tab for both (if you use both volumes), as per the sound and display settings in the settings tab.
No, that was the first thing that I checked, I have the single volume unchecked as well.

I find the single volume the better option, less chance of this kind of thing happening. Other than that, it sounds like you have either installed a tweak or combination of tweaks which are not compatible or you have a hardware fault.
I just read a thread from other firum in Taiwan.
People said the low earphone volume can be improved by engineering mode.
Here are the steps.
1. Make sure your X10 is in Screen-Lock.
2. press button as the following sequence
m b b m b m m b
m: menu button b: back button
3. Then you can chose "service test" --> "Earphone"
adjust it by the volume button.
I had no problem of low earphone volume before.
So this is just for those who encountered this issue.
If this works, this problem can be solved by firmware setting.
[Update]
After test, this just shows that earphone issue is not from hardware.
Wish SE solve this by 2.1 update.
I think it's easy (maybe not easy for SE guys... )
Adjusted the volume, but unfortunately no one to call right now. Will see if it works soon.
Could you link me to the forum post as well? Thanks!

yes you can adjust the volume setting, it wont save it...
Wow ...excellent
Where do you guys get this stuff... engineering mode? ....wow... it works too
Excellent post
you can download 'any cut ' from the market and just add a shortcut to the desktop.
any cut > new activity > earphone
I dint think it fixes the.low call volume problem though.
I think in R2BA026, the Media Volume Setting is already at it's maximum. Mine does when I opened it and I don't remember adjusting it...

True. It won't save the volume setting

Doesn't work on my x10i for some strange reason.
Yeah.. too bad they won't save it..
Maybe u need root for that
I can adjust the in-ear volume while calling. Just call yourself, keep talking while pressing the volume up button. Some bar saying in-ear volume will be going up.
Also, didn't it say media volume instead of in ear in engineering mode.
If you can't get into engineering...I couldn't also, but then I noticed that I wasn't pressing the menu button(left), but the home(middle) button...

I think my biggest problem is mic... People on other side usually have a hard time hearing me, I tried speaking louder but I find it silly to be forced to yell so that person I'm talking to could hear me...
The dial pad tone on my Dhd has become very very low that I can hardly ear it,that sound setting don't help,any ideas?thanx

Try installing audio manager from market and turn up system volume,... not sure where to find the system volume in phone settings but audio manager is good.

Sorted the problem thanx,still weird how the system volume whent low.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
How'd you fix it?
(never mind) ... Why was it low in the first place?
Mine does this toodame happens to lock/unlock sound. I think it routes the sound to the call speaker instead of the rear speaker
Now that you mention it, I have the same. All my volume settings are set to Full and in sound options, I have selected to have sounds fr dial pad and for touch screen and for lock/unlock. I don't think they are redirected to call speaker because I don't hear sound there either.
Anyone found a solution without installing 3rd party app?
Ok, looked deeper into it and discovered that actually the only solution is the audio manager. It seems to be a must have as Android misses critical volume settings on its interface. That application is the only way to allow you to adjust the volume.
That's no excuse for HTC, Google or whoever is responsible for the Android OS or DHD. (really, who is responsible? I never thought that)
Going to give it a try myself as well.
Chefs, is there something that can be done on your end?
I use Sound Manager for this issue...happened to me twice already...
Other applications are responsible for this.
I too had faced this problem and suddenly the tones of dial pad were gone on my htc desire, it was only vibrating. The settings of Sound were all fine, still no tone. So being a tester I am, I backtracked and remembered what all I did.
It turned out when we install applications in Android we give them access to core functionalities of system. I had used Fring application prior in the day, where I had used Fring's Dialer pad. I logged into fring again went to dialer pad, increased volume and indicator said "Volume" unlike any other indicator of volume in HTC Desire. After increasing the volume, I logged out and went to phone dialer again, and tones were back. So our applications are responsible for turning down volume. A centralized application which controls all application can come in handy and there are few in android market available.
Hope this helped
I have deleted some apps from my phone following this problem but seemed to make no difference... today however the volume on dialer has returned to normal??? But also the noises on the qwerty pad now sound like an old fashioned typewriter??? My 4 yr old was messing with phone earlier but checked settings I can think of and nothing has changed... confused!
yea i got the same problem tried emailing HTC they dont know anything about it they just replied with
Kindly go to Menu>settings>sounds>check:
audible touch screen
audible selections
screen lock sounds
:/
thanx for XDA or i would've never sort it out
I currently have this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=904762&highlight=FrankinstineDROIDv1.5
It's flashed through DFT. I have read a lot of threads where people have had too loud in-call volume. But mine is extremely low. When I'm in a room with two people talking to each other, I can't hear the other person. (NO it's not my hearing )
Any suggestions or known fixes? I'd prefer to keep the ROM and just fix the problem. If you are suggesting a fix, could you please also include instructions, or a link to an instructional thread.
Thanks
hi

Hey ok so I tried it, but i'll have to test it in a loud environment, and no my speaker and music volume are absolutely fine, it's just the other person's voice during a call... anyways i'll see how it goes! Thanks for the help!

i have the same problem when i answer a call my volume is very low even if i put it on speaker it will still be low..im running coredroid 1.6
1st post!!! i think.
I am having the same problem you guys are having but I think that my phone is only using the speakerphone speaker even when it's set to earpiece speaker. I have tried pretty much every sd rom and i get the same speaker issue. I cant help but think this is a simple setting. I have unchecked the feedback settings but I have not installed dsp manager that nkfrompk suggested because I don't think I need louder volume, I think it is only using the speakerphone speaker.
any help would be awesome. Maybe you guys can check yours to see if it's only using the speakerphone also.
Ok so I disabled all of the feedbacks, even though all except "haptic" were already unchecked. But I haven't noticed any difference.
My phone isn't using the speaker phone, but when I do use the speaker phone the volume is completely fine, the only time I have a problem is while using the phone normally.
If any of you guys figure something out, please share!
thanks

Does it sound to you like the speakerphone is working when the earpiece should be?
I switched phones using the same sd card with android on it and it booted no problem and the speakers work as they should.
nope, it doesn't sound like that
Is there a fix for this, my girl is tired of the low volume why on the phone

Nahh, sorry man, I'm still searching for a fix. The unchecking all feed backs seemed to improve it the slightest bit. Or might have just been a mental thing. But nothing to make the volume a comfortable level.
anyone has a fix?
Hey all,
New to the forum and first post!
Look forward to speaking and getting to know you all.
Question: Anyone having issues with the ringer volume?
Mine is set to Max but it's still so soft/low.
I can barely hear the phone in my pocket or jacket.
Any fix for this?
Thanks.
*added* - also vibrate is very weak!
Get a belt clip case to wear it, you'd look Sooo Cool

LOL! good idea!
but that won't help either.
if i can't hear my phone while it's in my jacket (pocket on the inside of jackets right where heart/below heart is). i doubt i can hear it on the waist!
is it only my phone or are there others out there with the same issue?
and before any smarty pants comments, my hearing is fine!
thanks!
Yep. Same here. Also the vibrate is horribly weak...

i use my own custom notification and ring tones, and have no problem, maybe someone with abit of time can put the stock tones through an audio converter and increase the volume
Here is what to do, (do exactly as I say before you say it did not work).
1- unlock your screen if it is locked
2- press home button (no mater what, just press it)
3- hold the valuem up for 10 sec
now it should be louder
Is there supposed to be any new / different notification after 10 seconds?

I had the same issue I fixed it though by getting this App Volume+ from the Market. Then I downloaded this other app Zedge from the marketplace and replaced my ringtone.
