Voodoo Bass Boost vs Volume Limit - Nexus S General

Has anyone noticed that the more you increase bass, the lower volume limit is?
I mean, the volume limit you have setted doesn't change, but you can't reach it.
Is that normal?

Probably so you don't kill your earbuds?

The volume is terribly low. Is there a way to access the system settings and increase the volume levels.

go to settings>audio
Or press UP on the volume button?
(Hint, it's on the right hand side between the L & R shoulder buttons)
Make sure you press the right way or you'll make the volume incredibly low!
Thaks guys but I know how to manually turn the volume up. My fone is preser with a limit to as high to volume can go. Im trying to bypass that limit.

Take a cover meant for a bigger battery and put an amp in there picking up the signals for your speakers and sending them amplified to your speaker. If you need a starting direction, look for cmoy amps.
Make sure the you have the media volume up to. Other then that idk what to tell you. I think the play is the loadest phone I've had. If its a ringtone that you think is quiet. I can take your ringtone and make it much loader using audacity.
I dont think the Play is that loud either, the quality of the sound is good, due to the stereo speakers.. But I would also like a way to increase the limit of the maximum volume if there is a way

Yeah, it is a phone, but Sony you think it would be cool if it could be used as a stereo too?
Besides, my previous phone, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music, was much louder than the Play. The Play just isnt as loud as you think

It's called headphones

The maximum volume level is set for a reason.
Any louder & the speakers would distort.
I think in call loudspeaker volume could be much higher.

Headphone volume?

I saw a post about volume issues with the galaxy nexus on jellybean, and some people were talking about certain kernels that have volume boosts built in... in fact I'm running air kernel on my ns4g which has voodoo and allows me to increase the output. Is there anything like that for the nexus 7? The headphone output isn't as loud as I wish it was. And sorry of this has been answered and I jus didn't find it, searching is easier on the computer which I don't have access to at the moment...

Anyone?
I use the app "equalizer" and set it to rock. Louder and much better output.

I use volume + (volume booster) from meltus. I have 2 N7's and one isn't as loud as the other so this app makes it so much better...actually too loud sometimes.

You can go to Settings>Sound and disable "Safe headset volume" or find something else at Sound that might cause it, I can't tell you exactly because i don't have the phone myself.
No such options on stock rom any other suggestions ?

Isn't this a European law of some kind or are you guys in the USA? If you go deaf Google can't be sued if they warned you...

I've noticed the custom ROMS are adding this option to disable to there settings menu but I still can't find instructions or a mod to kill this in stock.

[Q] Increasing louc speaker volume?

Hi,
Nexus 4's loud speaker volume isn't so high compared to other phones, as you guys already know. I know that there are apps that can increase the volume. But how far can i push it? I don't want to ruin my speaker. And yes, there is a mod that increases the volume of the nexus 4 , but unfortunately it doesn't work on xylon rom, which i'm using.
Thanks

I don't see any reason to push the speaker. The quality of the sound isn't normally great. By increasing the volume, quality will decrease even further.
Try increasing the volume with about 10%. That shouldn't damage anything.
I don't care about sound quality really, i just want to hear the song lol. And i dont know if 10% makes it better.

Can hear distortion

I can hear distortion while using headphones on my g2 from T-Mobile, anyone having the same problem?
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
No, I got a new set of headphones for it a few days ago and I use it in the car hooked up thru auxillary input and sounds perfect both ways.
Was hearing it while charging, can anyone test for me. Thanks

I was charging and playing music on my way to Vegas and back last week and had no issues. Maybe it is just your headphones and a bad impedance match up to the audio out.

Thanks, I'll try again with different headphones, was using my Samsung's.

I was also listening with the volume maxed out, which should be the place where distortion is heard most if there is any. Do you hear the distortion problem at max volume only or anywhere on the volume scale?
