Hello,
since yesterday i got my new HTC Snap and i got a big problem. Often the callers are very quiet. I can't understand them. Does anybody know this problem? Is there a reg. key to change the volume to a higher level than normaly?

I noticed that too when i got mine, then i removed the plastic sticker/cover from the phone and BAM, instant boost in sound...
Other then that I really dont know of a way to boost output, Mine has a way to boost audio through Headphones, maybe someone can take that and apply it to the builtin speakers?
looooool
you are right. How silly i'am ;-)
THANKS BRO'
You can try:
go to HKLM\software\HTC\SOFTWARE\AUDIGAIN\
speaker:
EAC_GAIN_EMBEDDED to 71
CODEC_GAIN_EMBEDDED to 07
headphones:
EAC_GAIN_HEADSET to 71
CODEC_GAIN_HEADSET to 07
You may need to add them but they were present in my HTC Dash 3G. It really boosted my audio. Louder then 71 and 07 caused the speakers to distort. You might have to play with your audio levels to find a comfort zone.
i have sennheiser mm200 and i'm working to fix my problems since i bought this phone (about 3-4 weeks) but i still have nothing.
i installed srs wow effects, yep it's working but not much; there is too much background noise and echo on the voice.
i tried adding these lines to regedit
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Plugin\AV\Line Speed = 320 (DWORD)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Plugin\AV\SubB ands = 8 (DWORD)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Plugin\AV\Bloc ks = 16 (DWORD)
yes, these lines seems working a bit, also increasing the line speed value is improving the audio as well, but it still not satisfying.
did anyone having problems like mines, i really want to fix these problems, i'm not selling my iphone just because of this issue.
I had a problem with my call audio being too low and my other device audio (games, sound effects, ringtones) being way too high. I used the config options found in this thread to fix it.
It works great, but the only problem is whenever I make or recieve a call, the options reset and I'm back to having out-of-whack audio again. I have to go through the diagnostic code again and then reboot the phone to get it back to how it was before the call.
Obviously not ideal. Anything I can do? If I leave it as it is, even having the device volume at 1 is very loud, and anything above 10 is extremely distorted.
Anyone experienced this?
strange
have the same issue when playing music on zune.. volume output stays low no matter how high it displays
Modify Preset 7 in Device Gain as Max: 400, Min: -1100

That actually does help the issue (it doesn't reset when i make a call anymore) but games and music are now too loud even at volume 1. That's how it was when I first got the phone, and the reason I messed around with the device gain in the first place
Hi. I have some problem with sound output. Phone think, that i plug in earphones, and don't play any sounds, except sms, rings and alarms. Hard reset didn't help. After hard reset it work correct until reset. I try disconect minijack from motherboard, but it doesn't help. Can somebody tell, which pin need connect, to normaly play sounds?
Hey, I have exactly the same issue. Phone thinks that audio jack is still in. Only hard reset via diagnosis menu works. I even flashed a 7.8 rom and still get nothing.
Anything we could do? Maybe somewhere in diagnosis or in registry we can reset audio settings?
UPDATE:
I've done this so far:
1. Went to Diagnosis -> *#0002*28345# - Focus Audio Control Utility.
2. In the row of cells I had
1 1C 74 4 23 9D 9B 12

Click to collapse
instead of
1 1C 74 4 23 9D 95 12
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(according to Samsung focus Wiki page "95" is the default)
3. As I pressed "Write" I got the sound back, but on very low volume.
4. Reboot... Nothing again.
5. Back to Focus Audio Control Utility, changed audience.cfg to "On". Again I got the sound, but on very low volume.
6. Reboot... It's working! .... but only for a couple of seconds (until something boots I think). Back to silence.
Recently got a Seicane head unit with Android 8.1 GO and MCU1: HW8227L-3.3-SWD-1.9
When I use my phone via bluetooth the sound from the caller is fine but my voice sounds low and distorted at the other end.
Tried various android apps but no luck so far.
What to to? maybe get an external mic?
Me too
Hello,
I've got same unit and same problem. I put a external mic but still have the same problem.
We hear the sound of the car but not much the voice. I think there is a problem with software processing. Please help us

How did you connect the external mic?
via the rear jack connector, as indicated on the instructions. I checked, it works. maybe I should unplug the internal microphone ...
Took the unit apart and unsoldered the built-in microphone - I then soldered a 3.5 mm minijack extension to the circuit board. There's two small pins at the bottom of the board that says mic+ and mic-.
Sound is now improved with an external mic - not perfect but certainly better.
The reason as to why I soldered a minijack extension to the boad is due to my unit not having an external mic plug from factory.

Hi Seicane,
I am also facing this issue - but a newbie to soldering.
Did you solder to the pins or the adjacent pads ? Any advice/precautions for a newbie?
Thx!

To the pins - the pads are not connected to the mic circuit.
Put some solder on the wires before soldering them to the pins.
Also - I strongly recommend that you unsolder the internal mic if you leave in in it might interfere with the external mic.

Thanks for the quick reply!
I saw another post here that has an interesting finding regarding what to solder/un-solder, and what to connect and disconnect.
Did you try any of that?

That thread was my main inspiration for trying to better the mic reception. I tried various software mods before but none had any impact whatsoever.
The main problem with my radio is the quality and/or the implementation of the internal mic at a hardware level - I could not see any other way but changing it with an external mic.

Ah I see. Did it help? I am thinking of doing this too, but instead of the wire directly from the mic, a female 3.5mm plug. Then that is where the replacement aftermarket mic will be plugged.

Thanks. I will probably try that. Calls are okay on mine but Google Voice recognition is spotty. It can't understand me vs recognition on my phone or a wired headset. I have to shout at the headunit for it to understand what Spotify playlist I want to shuffle.
Halo, guys, I just bought a Podofo Android Unit and i have same issue with the microphone. did you fix it?

I tried to intall a external mic with rca cable but it didn't works so I decided to,
I removed built-in micro. It is micro microphone. It is impossible to get good level of sound. See pictures.
I soldered a cable with a female 3.5mm jack and I plugged an external micro. Check pictures and take in mind right soldering pads. I made a mistake at first try. With a multimeter I could identify others points.
I also set up higher level of volume through mtk engineering app and WORKS.
Special thanks to this forum.
Based on the guidelines provided at various forums and as many google searches and youtube videos, I have done all possibilities at software level (no intention to open the hardware initially), but no luck.
Finally, I have soldered the external mic and removed the internal mic. It's really a surprise. Now, my voice is very clear to the recipients.
