So...I love this phone.
Using it right now with a bluetooth headset (Phiaton PS 210 BTNC) in a POS car that doesn't have a radio while I try to decide what new car to get.
Listening to some podcasts, but the volume is just too low. Can't adjust it on the headset (it doesn't seem to work), and it's up as high as possible on the N4.
Are there any tricks out there to increase the bluetooth volumn of my N4?
Thanks guys!

I remember there were some back door ways of changing settings in my old G1 and G2, anything for this phone?

I was wondering if the audio quality and sound stuttering has improved by using BT stereo headphones with Blackstone...
I have a trinity and i still haven't found a setting nor a rom nor a BT stack which handles my samsung headphones with a decent quality and no stuttering...
My cheap nokia 6234 has a solid connection and a good quality sound compared to the trinity... Plus, the A2DP connection slows my device down so much you have to pause if you want to do anything with it...
So if anyone could report about using bluetooth headphones with Blackstone, I would be very grateful as that would help me decide whether to buy or not
Thanks a lot

Great
I have the Touch HD for a few days now with the BH S100 HTC bluetooth headset. I have to say that the sound quality is great. It is even better than my conventional mp3 player.
Stable, never lost connection, etc.
Hope this helps.
I tried it today, with my Sony-headset.
It seems to stutter, though, for the five minutes I tested.
I have the Blackstone from seven day and the A2DP is OK with my Sony_Ericsson HBH-DS200.
The sound is very good and the pairing with the phone is immediatly in about 1 second.
Regards
reasonably OK with my Jabra BT620s. However, quality in BT A2DP is not really comparable with wired headsets, and i got some losses when passing nearby EM sources like wifi, etc.etc.
I needed to enhance the quality with Schaps Advanced Config Tool.
Alpine radio
I have an Alpine radio with bluetooth capabilities in my car, and for the first time I have a great connection with my HD. My Touch Diamond stuttered.
Thanks a lot everyone!
I guess it depends by the headset model and interferences then...
I'm still looking for a shop which would make me play with it for a little while...
i have a pioneer deh 700bt and the headunit set up was easier than the nokia n95
streaming music was a bit weird, the quality was very weird, kinda like very low bit rate streaming on mp3s at times, then fine again.
my n95 music used to pause when i took the key out of the ingnition and the stereo turn off
however the HD just keeps playing, but not through the speaker phone....just see it still playing
bit disappointed, and looking for a fix
I've only played for 10 mins, so i'll let you know if i find some more.
I have an Audi A3 from 2005 with a original BT carkit.
Can I use my HD to play some music ?
I can make phonecalls without a problem, if I adjust the volume of my carradio the volume from the HD is also adjusted.
But is there a possibility to play some music ?
Has anyone tried the Plantronics 855 Voyager stereo headset yet?
Also, I'm currently using the Jawbone 1 and noticed horrible interference/noise in the ear piece when the wifi is on, anyone else experience this?
I've never had any problems with the diamond and now with the hd. Like the senior man said, you need to increase the bluetooth bitpool values either in the registry or by using schaps tool. The difference in quality is immense - low values will make high bitrate music sound 64 kbps so you need to change this. Of course, the higher the bitpool the more chance of dropouts but I run at 60 and rarely, if ever have any dropouts.
Sennheiser MM200
Now if tested for almost one day my HD with my new Sennheiser MM 200. Amazing!!! The use of the MP3-Player switched with the use of the remote control to a new level. During sport display can be switched off(no need for touch display-less power consumption (try to give a more compareable info in future)), full control of play/pause/fwd/rwd/volume function. There is no delay of the HD in using the remote nor any transmission interruptings. Now the HD is with armwrest a perfect sport companion. The sound of the earphones - haven't had any better sound (and i've tried a lot of earplugs). Neckstrap fits perfect, mic in perfect position, clear speech and due to perfect noise reduction of the plugs even in noisy areas perfect understanding.
The Sennheiser was just charged the first time - i'll report the stamina.
So far -
I am using the i.Tech S35 bluetooth clip also on my HD now, and sound is very good, with WiFi on. Advantage of the clip is that one can use any headphones with it.

It's not possible to play music, only phone functions are available.
I've tested the HD with the PARROT MK6000 and everything works very fine, also A2DP, Quality is good.Phone Functions great, Phonebook synchronize works perfect
hi
i am using sony ericsson bt headset - hbh-pv740
on my previous phones (iphone 3g and se w910i) the volume level was good enough to feel comfortable - on my hd2 it is on the 100% level but still quiet.
any ideas how to improve bt voice level?

Shjena! my BT does have volume control, however I will date to try this soft to gain BT settings
Thx
I have a chinese bluetooth rearview mirror without digital volume control (only an analog knob like a fm radio volume one), and the output volume was extremely low with my new hd2 (with a nokia n97 was perfect).
Tried to modify registry settings without any results.
Then I discovered that disabling "single volume" for ringtone/system in settings i was able to raise the conversation volume using the hardware volume button on the left of hd2. Now i'm totally satisfied with the output power.
you might set the volume with the volume keys on the phone when connected to headset.
Is there any news whether bluetooth volume issue is solved in 2.2? (Steph1.2.2?? Or official). Thanks a lot to all the peepz who make this forum great!

Hi re960088
What Bluetooth volume issue is this then? as i have no issues using my Jawbone headset for voice calls or my Nokia BH-500 for streaming Stereo Music the volume is no different to how it has always been for me since i started using the Streak on its release and running 1.6.

This may be a subjective, technical, and / or use case issue. Some people have quite acute hearing and don't experience problems, some people don't use BT headsets while in noisy environments, or maybe the different Streaks have different volumes sent to BT for calls.
In my case, all volumes sent to BT are fine EXCEPT phone calls, which are approximately 1/3rd the volume of media at max volume.
[edit] another issue is the BT mic. In my case, BT tx is waaay to high...most environmental noises are heard louder than my voice.[/edit]
Some means for accessing the BT volume subsystem might be valuable. Apparently "louder volume hack" does not provide answers. If the official 2.2 update does not provide answers, I will be digging. While I am just able to make out conversations under typical conditions, if the calling party is quiet or mumbly, it just won't work!
Thx 4 the above. I use dell streak to call in my car -connect to bluetooth stereo. When it connects it says adjusting bluetooth volume,and the overall sound volume is so low i can barely hear my counterparts very annoying since i sm on the road a lot. Car stereo volume is set at max. Also tried other car no advance! If 2.2 does not fix this, i will have to return it unless some of the smart people here can fix it..thx

Ive used 3different bluetooth headsets and not experienced any of those issues, so can't really say whether it will fix those particular ones.
But froyo does use different bluetooth stack so it may make an improvement to those who have issues.
I did notice that it's a lot more stable with my one jvc stereo headset. 1.6 used to hang quite a lot using that one in particular if I did a combo of button presses
Hi all,
there's definitely an in-call volume "issue" on the 2.1 build (certanly my O2 8105 anyway) when I hook up to either a BT headset or my car's Pioneer BT head unit. Music streaming is awesome, phone calls are only just workable.....
1.6 was much better on volume level but used to break up the sound really badly so I wonder if it was some kind of "fix" for that?
iam having the worst ever audio quality over bluetooth while listening to songs...whenever there's treble it sounds like a worst radio quality..iam using sony ericsson MW600 bluetooth stereo headset..does someone have a solution for this? or is this universal problem?

That sounds like it's using the hands free profile instead of A2DP. You could try going to the options of your bluetooth headset on and untick the "Phone" box, and make sure "Media" is ticked.
I have generally decent bluetooth audio using Motorola T505 to broadcast FM to the car radio (must get around to buying a proper BT head unit, or a new car with one built in...). Most of the problems I have are interference with the FM signal rather than dodgy bluetooth.
However, I do see this kind of bad distortion on the high end with certain pieces of music - generally the solution is to turn down the volume on the Note a couple of notches and crank it up on the car stereo. I assume some of my tunes are just recorded/ripped REALLY DAMNED LOUD, it seems to mainly be things I ripped myself years ago so I probably didn't pay much attention to the levels at the time.
If you lower the volume from the Note does the distortion disappear?

No, still there. I'm using Galaxy note and noticed a similar problem, both with a pair of Plantronics BackBeat and bluetooth car kit FM transmitter. It sounds pretty fine on my Archos 5IT that is running Android 1.6 and my Nokia N900 running Maemo. My note is currently running on Android 2.3.6 Rocket 12.
Bluetooth stereo sounds great for me using Sennheiser MM-200...
If you have exceptionally bad audio quality, it's probable that the headset is being used in handsfree audio mode, and not media mode. If you go to settings>bluetooth, and click on your device, you should see which modes are ticked.
Also, some people have reported better bluetooth audio quality with the LR1 modem. See here:

I'm coming from and HTC Evo 4g LTE, and connecting via bluetooth to my shower radio. The volume I get on the radio with the GN3 is significantly less than with the Evo, even with both the phone and radio on max volume.
Is there a good way to boost volume specifically in the bluetooth media output?

I realize that this is an old post, but I’m having the same problem. Sound with Bluetooth is very low in volume. I’ve seen some ways to boost speaker and headset jack volume, but I don’t believe that those solutions address the low Bluetooth volume. Any guidance would be most appreciated.
Poweramp has an equalizer where you can increase volume via preamp. That's what I use. And HTC phones have better sound.
