In "Call Settings" you'll find a box for "Hearing Aids", check and enable this setting and you'll notice a slight increase in the volume.
Hope it helps,

I'm running cm7 nightly 36.I looked again but didn't see the option.I think only the sense roms have it.thx though.

Yeah I've noticed that the in call volume us a little low for me too. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am surprised at the lack of information and help on the net for this issue. The in-call volume, and the speakerphone, are very quiet. Forget the radio and driving with the windows down, a moderate breeze is enough... I press the phone hard against my ear and still don't catch everything.
I've used CM's DSP manager to boost the speaker signal, and this isn't enough.
Even with full volume & the DSP boost, there is very little crackle. It's as if the speaker is barely utilized.
I haven't met anyone else with an Aria, but every other Android phone I've seen works perfectly fine as, you know, a phone.

I've never found anything for cm that raised the volume to the level I'd like.however drowning child ported 2 different sense roms that actually have pretty good volume.better than stock or cm.

[MOD]How To Use DSP MANAGER in Other Players and improve Sound Quality IN CM* Roms

As U All Know That Our S2(GT-I9100)Sound Quality is Not that much good As Other Devices HAve
We have Working DSPmanager In Both CM9/CM10 Roms But IF We Enable Bass Boost and Increase A Volume Little Bit The Sound Starts Distorting(I dontknow Word For it)
So Here Is My Settings And Apps To get Better SOund IN CM10/Cm9 Roms
I Like CM10 Rom More IN Terms Of Its SOund Quality
What U Need Is
1.Cm10/Cm9 Rom
2.Siyah 4.1.x + Kernel Link
3.Jetaudio app Link
4.Poweramp App Link
5.xxtweaker App by Fluxi Link
6.A Good Pair Of Earphones
After Installation Of All Above Things Do SAme AS I say
1.Open Jetaudio Play Any Song
Minimize it
2. Open Dsp manager And Setup BassBoost And Equalizer
Now U Will Here Dspmanager Bass And Eq Difference
3.Open Power Amp Go To Its Settings->Advance Audio Settings
Untick Direct Volume Control
4.Now Manage Its Equalizer (You Can Set According To You)
Play Any SOng Now DSPMANAGER WILL WORK WITH POWERAMP ALSO:angel::angel:
Now Open xxtweaker App i know Its Not Supported By SIyah Kernel just Open It
Cancel The Prompt
Goto Sound and Vibration Then Sound Settings
And Increment The Values AS Shown Above You can increment according to u also but dont change too much in Digital audio values
AFTER ALL THESE THINGS U WILL GET BETTER SOUND QUALITY WITH DSPMANAGER IN HIGH VOLUMES ALSO

Is it okay to use Apollo? or do i have to be Jetaudio to have all those awesome config?
cheers
awesome config btw, loving the beats :good:

Really, really helpful! Thanks heaps, bro! This entire article is extremely effective for improving your sound quality, especially the part with xxTweaker. Here is a custom EQ preset made by me for pumping out the maximum possible bass without sacrificing mids and lows:

BTW, I've changed my headphones since that thread. I own Sennheiser PX100-IIs now, and I don't think I could find a pair better than these for the S II.

I know we are talking about audio quality here, but I must say, the theme you are using is amazing
May I ask what you are using for that?

Know any equalizer/player able to set mono sound?
[no poweramp, didn't like it.]

I actually said "no poweramp"

does it work on stock rom?

Link ringtone and notification volume?

I haven't been able to find any other posts on this, so if this question has already been answered, I apologize.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I can't find a way to link the ringtone and notification volumes on my S4. This feature has been present in every other android phone I've ever used, so I can't imagine Samsung would choose to omit it. Does anyone have any insight on this?

*bump*
Anyone?

Why would they do that?

Have people done this yet? I am using the GOLDENEYE ROM and would love to have these volumes linked up. I decompiled framework-res.apk, but I have no idea which file to add this option to.

What you might find loud enough for your uses might not be for others! Like for me if I'm trying to watch a video on anything when I'm in a room with people talking or any noise I can barely hear anything.
I would recommend looking up ViPER4Droid. You can find the thread in the Android Software and Hacking forum. All you so is download both of the APKs (there called XHiFI and HF or something like that, forgot the exact acrynom) in the thread for your android version and put them on your sd card - there is a zip for each one and when you extract them you will get two more zips, one for 4.0 or before and one for versions after, extract the appropriate zip and youll get the apk you need. Install both of them and when you open them up it will prompt you to install a driver, look at the thread for which one to install, and then reboot and your good to go.
You then can open up the apps and there is an abudant amount of settings you can adjust. One of them being speaker loudness level.
But dont follow my instructions, the thread is very thorough and detailed! And explains everything about it, confirmed working on our device, its actually implemented into Blue Kuban already.

If you're rooted try faux kernel with the faux sound found in the market. It works beautifully there is also a beats bass enhancer that you can use with it.

I bought my s4 last night and the first thing I noticed was that the low speaker volume. I will preach viper mod. I came from the galaxy s2 running jellyverse 3.0 with viper pre installed and WOW the speaker volume is insane loud. On that phone. Thank you inlineboy for verification that this works. Ive searched and found nothing for s4, until now. Installing now ill come back with results.
Ok Back from install. I downloaded fx and XHiFi apks. Installed both drivers. In the Fx app I enabled eXtra Loud and sat it to extreme. Opened XHiFi Enabled it and sat both to small speakers. I did not tweak anything else and the speaker is 2x as loud. The ink effect lock screen is very loud now. Every sound on s4 is 2x loud. Overall Its a score. For those who want to fix their low volume problem, this is the it. I hope this helps someone. Im running stock rooted mdl. I rooted using chainfires method. Installed busybox.

ViperFX is amazing. I have it baked into my E4GT ROMs and I'm running it now.
One thing I found is the driver folder needs to be on the external SD Card to have the drivers show up in the app.

Thats where I found it good ole e4gt. You guys done a great job with that phone. Your roms ran so good when I got my s4 it felt like a slower phone with a bigger screen! Glad to see the same faces over here.

Here you go. I take no credit for it. I found it somewhere else on this forum, but can't find the link right now. You have to be rooted. Also make a Nandroid backup before flashing. Do it at your own risk, if anything goes wrong, it's not my fault. Make a backup of the file "snd_soc_msm_Taiko_CDP" located in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm/ somewhere on your sd card in case the stock volume zip doesn't restore the correct file later.
I tried the moderate volume, and it worked great. I would do the loud one, it might be too loud.
Good luck

Check out the app Viper4Android. Not only will it make your volumes louder, it also has a great EQ which will make everything sound much better.

+1 for Viper4Android or beat music player's built in equalizer is better sounding bass in my opinion if it's just music that you care about

Note 2 Dual sim N9002
Hello All,
I used this moderate.zip on N9002 worked well however it crashes the sound on the sim in slot 2 thus no sound and microphone. The restore will not work and you will have to install backup..
Please be careful. I hope we can fix the problem as the patch definitely increase the volume on everything else.
