I just got it and noticed the earpiece volume is still low even with the volume turned all the way up.
Is there a setting I missed or maybe a registry fix?
Any help would be appreciated
HTC HD2
OS 5.2
MANILLA 2.5.2
ROM 2.13
RADIO 2.10
Don't mean to offend you. I had the same issue but was more of a user issue. I kept increasing the volume not paying attention that I was adjusting the ring volume and not the system volume.
if that doesnt work you may need to return it. My friends HD2 had low speaker volume and low earpiece volume. As much as we tried, we couldn't get it to go.
N1M1TZ - No offense taken, I only adjusted the volume during a call and at max it is still quiet.
I checked the settings/sounds, no adjustment for the earpiece just the ringer and the system sounds.
marduk79 - after doing a little digging I have found that this is a common problem with this particular batch of phones.
The first batch came out and the volume was set way to high that it was actually blowing out the earpiece.
I think I may have found a solution, if it works I will post it.
Thanks for the assist.
So what is the solution... My first one had sweet loud ear piece volume. But alas, the speaker blew. My replacement is alright, but I want it to be a tad bit higher... Lots of years of loud punk rock have made me slightly def I think...
Anyone know if there is a cab or registry tweak or something that will make the volume louder in the ear piece speaker?

How low? Like so low you couldn't hear it, or just low enough to be annoying? Basically my first HD2 was nice and loud. The new one is about 3 bars lower sounding turned all the way up... Which annoys me because I know the other one was louder and it's hard to hear people if I'm in an environment with a lot of background noise.
I feel like if I tried to take it in to get a replacement they would think I was nuts.
headphone and phone speaker too low
I too beleive the headphone volume is way too low, when listening to music or taking a call on the headphones it is barely loud enough too hear if there is any background noise such as traffic or conversations going on nearby. I have the volume about 75% when listening to talk radio stations, on my headset, no background noise present and it is at normal listening level. So if there is background noise, I need 100% for it to be loud enough to hear clearly. The phone speaker is not much better, when listening to calls on speakerphone the percentages are about the same for equvilent listening circumstances. I have tried "AudioPara3 TMO" and notice little or no difference in sound. Does anyone know of anything that will increase the maximum volume level for both speakerphone and headphones?
I'd like to know if there is any registry hack to increase the line out volume as well. My line out volume is very low, I have to put it to about 50 percent to match what would be the 20-30 percent level of my old HTC Touch (Touch 1 to HD2 - quite an upgrade, eh?? )
This phone has a really quiet earpiece, it's fine indoors but when ambient is loud i can't hear sh*t. In froyo there is a sound flicker every few seconds, not in CM7 but it's still quiet. Is there a way to make it louder?
Out of nowhere my ear speaker volume level is EXTREMELY LOW!! I always have to put my phone calls on speaker which is inconvenient because I don't always want the surrounding people around me to listen in on my conversations. There has to be a fix for this. Can anybody help?
I got my Google Nexus 4 yesterday. Today, when I was making call, I noticed mild buzzing noise from the phone speaker. I thought it was due to the call, but i could hear it even when I was not in a call. I then rebooted the phone, the mild buzzing sound was still there.
The noise does not seem to be there when the phone screen is locked, but as I press the power button, I can hear the noise.
I don't hear the noise in the headphones though. I was not charging the phone when I heard the noise.
Does anybody else have this issue?
I have this too. It's a low buzzing sound coming from the ear speaker even when the phone is on lock.
This is already being discussed here
Closed....follow link above
Does anyone else have a problem with the call volume? I'm aware that there is speaker mode, but I can't use it all the time as I don't want people listening in on my conversation. The volume is barely enough for me to hear.
Might be defective earpiece as mine is very loud and can even be heard a few feet away. Try adjusting the volume while in a call and watch the volume slider go all the way up or down to confirm volume change.
I agree you might have a defective unit. I'm quite deaf, wear hearing aids but prefer to have phone conversations without. My volume is quite satisfactory and I give Sammy props for doing it right this time.
