Ever since I moved to EC07 a couple months ago, my phone volume seems quieter? Maybe I'm just imagining things, but I never used to have to strain to hear things on speakerphone, and I do all the time now, both on me and my wife's EC07 phones. Has anybody else experienced this?
And, either way, are there simple hacks to increase the volume range on the phone?
Thanks all.
That's funny, I flashed the muinia beta 4 rom and my phone is actually louder. I had to play with the volume settings to adjust. Hope this helps out. Make sure the incoming volume is turned up.

I've been noticing the following strange behavior:
Sometimes the in-call volume is just too loud. Even on the minimum volume setting someone standing a couple of meters away from you will still perfectly hear the conversation. This only happens when receiving a call, never (as far as I can tell) when making one.
If during the call I switch on and then off the speaker, then the volume goes back to what it should be.
Has anyone noticed this before? Workarounds?
Yes, I've noticed this.
Always does it when it has been connected to a headset.
I seem to remember it went away when I installed the Modoco rom...
Mine still does it with the Modaco rom
@squirreleater: Thanks for your reply. It is just as you say
@both: Do you know if the latest HTC firmware fixes this issue? I know, I know, but I can't find the time these days to upgrade and find for myself
I`m on the latest MCR and it still does it. Its really P*****G me off now. I hate to take a call because of it.. Surely more people than us 3 are seeing this?
Yup, same thing for me although I've never noticed a difference between receiving and making calls (will watch out for that now). Quietest setting is still ridiculously loud. I'm on MCR 2.6 but have noticed on other roms as well.
I've noticed this too, but seems as though when I press volume up, it starts working again and allows me to lower the volume.
I can confirm that your workaround is just fine. Thanks.
So if i press volume up then down it will go quieter?
I will try this next call i get...
I am getting this same problem ... thanks for the tip I will try it.
I just noticed this. but after having my hero for like over a month. Could have appeared when i installed like 3 games yesterday but cant see why games would cause that to happen. but yea the workaround of increasing then decreasing the volume works. and it only happens when i receive the call. strange...
Over the course of the last few weeks, I've noticed that my in-call volume gradually works its way up to where it's almost unbearable even with the volume turned all the way down. This has happened with Fresh 1.0.1, Fresh 3.1, and CM6. Once it gets to that point, the only thing that will fix it is to do a data/cache wipe....however, that gets really old really quickly. I think it has something to do with using my phone with the bluetooth that's in my truck, but I haven't played with it enough to figure out the root cause. Has anyone else had this problem? Find a fix?
I've had this problem before with just about every phone I've had and my gf too. Weird things is that bt headsets that were too loud on one phone are too quiet or just right on other phones. I can't figure this out either. It's very aggravating too!
I am having problems without being able to change the in call volume at all! My phone calls are VERY loud and I cannot change it! This was on the stock EVO 3d and now the same issue on my rooted evo 3d

Well first off, this is not an Evo 3d forum. Second, this thread is unrelated to your problem. Third, this thread is over a year old, dont resurrect a one year old thread, just make a new one.
G'day all
My mum just bought herself a new Wildfire, and so far she's liking it, but she reckons that the ringtone volume on it is not as loud as her old Nokia N95-3. Has anyone tried hacking the volume on the Buzz yet? Would I have to r00t the phone?
Hope you can all help, and thanks all in advance?
PS: Would a Froyo Sense ROM be worth installing, over having Eclair with the Telstra crap there?
Anyone?

Don't root - if you charge the phone whilst it is off and then remove the cable the light remains and you have to remove the battery to make it usable
and to increase the rinfer volume press the up button on the left when music isn't playing
Umm, hate to say it, but it seems you're getting the wrong idea about my problem, mate.
Well the first thing I did was I made sure that the ringer volume was turned up full bore using the volume rocker on the side, like come on, the ringer volume level setting would be the first thing most people would check before they'd post this stuff on XDA.
By the way, the notification LED isn't the problem btw. I only asked if I would have to root the phone to adjust some low level setting to make Android give more volume out the speaker than what it currently allows.

Oops my bad I'll try turning off that feature, and let you know how I go.
And I might wait a bit before rooting, now that you mention that CWMod on the wildfire is rather wonky when you charge it.
Cheers for that mate!
Curious if anyone else is running into this... I am rooted and unlocked, running stock 183.46.10.XT907. I am on the 4.4 kernel as I rooted and unlocked from there and have not gone back to 4.1.2.
The volume is set at max using the volume key.
I've experienced the low call volume on Slim, CM11, and fastbooted back to stock to try to correct the problem.
Started in safemode, does not appear to be related to a 3rd party app.
Anyone experienced/overcome this or suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Yes I to have noticed this with not only the in call (both speaker phone and non)but also YouTube haven't looked into a resolution not on the phone that much ... I've had issues with it pressing buttons to have you or anyone else...it's not an issue with the proximity sensor as the display is off...

I haven't had issues with the hardware buttons, but appreciate hearing I'm not the only one. The speaker phone and speaker have normal volume for music, it is just in call that it seems muted.

Tried everything but going back to 4.1.2. Took to cleaning the area, even though not visibly clogged or dirty, with canned air/paintbrush/vacuum and it made it livable. It's better but not what it was.
Anyways- I would go to cleaning it first if you run into the same problem, you should get a little of the function back.
Not sure what happened. Just one day last week my in-call volume is really low. On speaker, regular and with headset. Turning up all volume sliders does nothing. Ideas?
I had this problem with my new S5 as well. Rebooting it usually fixed the problem. Also wiping the cache. I also had a weird brief problem where I couldn't send/receive text messages from one of my contacts. I factory reset my phone, wiped the cache and so far the two problems went away (for now, hopefully for good). Definitely an issue but not everyone's getting it hopefully an update from Samsung or Verizon will eventually permafix.

I have fixed it by pulling the battery too.
