Hi.
I bought the Jabra Revo Wireless headphones and they connect fine and everything, but the media sound is so low. Even on full volume it isn't very much. The volume is fine when I connect them using the cable instead.
I tried them with my old HTC Desire HD and the volume was a bit better but not as good as with wired connection.
And on my Windows computer I can't get any media through the headphones, but when I adjust the volume, the system sound does go through the headphones. Yes, the headphones are selected from volume mixer.
EDIT: Solved the volume problem. I just remembered that these headphones have its own touch controls on the right speaker from where you can adjust its own volume. But the problem on Windows is is still remaining, but I'll try to figure that out, if I can't, I'll ask for help on a Windows forum. But feel free to reply if you have a possible solution. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the tip. It wasn't quite the problem but it reminded me of the playback settings and the fact that I might need to set the device to default. And that was the problem, it was only default for communication.
Thanks, all solved now

I have been having a heck of a time trying to figure out why my bluetooth headset volume is so low. The bluetooth call volume is fine but the MS Voice Command, Media player, etc volume is low. I have played around with the AudioPara.csv file but it has never made any difference. If I plug my wired headphones first, then turn on my AudioGateway program the volume is perfect and the sound quality is excellent. So my question is, is there a way that I can force the phone to think it has a headphone connected before I enable the AudioGateway? I know that the phone can tell when the headphones are connected because if I try to run the HTC equalizer it tells me to connect the headphones first.
I have done tons of research and testing and I am still coming up empty.
I would like to ask a favor, I need someone who has a Bluetooth headset and a stock wired stereo headset.
First install acbToggleBT, this program allows you to open a connection between your headset and your phone. You can skip this step if you already have a toggle program.
http://www.acbpocketsoft.com/Products/acbToggleBT/acbToggleBT-Free--3.html
Next, play an .mp3 using windows media player or your favorite player.
Leave the stereo wired headset unplugged and run acbToggleBT, this will connect your phone to your headset. You should hear music through your Bluetooth headset. Make a mental note of the sound quality and volume. Run acbToggleBT again to turn off the bluetooth connection. Plug in your wired headset so you hear the music. Now run acbToggleBT agian.
Is the sound quality much better? Is the volume twice as good?
I have been playing with the AudioPara.csv file but the settings don't seam to help. I found the Speakerphone uses the settings in rows:
A12,CE_PLAYBACK_HANDSFREE
F26,CE_PLAYBACK_HANDSFREE
I found the HeadPhones use the setting in the rows:
A17,CE_PLAYBACK_RESET
F25,CE_PLAYBACK_HEADSET
I also figured out Column 4 affects the volume. I tried coping row F25 into F26 thinking that the bluetooth was using the Headphone settings when the headset is plugged in. I also copied the rows into the bluetooth row and it didn't make any difference.
I have one of those little mini usb to 2.5mm stereo adapters. If I plug the adapter in before I activate my bluetooth is sounds great.
I have come to the conclusion that I need an application or program that can enable the headset profile before toggling the bluetooth connection. Effectively making the mini usb trick unnecessary.
One final though, I am using a plantronics 510. Maybe its the difference between a stereo connection and a mono connection. Maybe plugging in the stereo adapter fools the bluetooth to think it should connect in stereo. Is there a trick to make the phone think the bluetooth headset is a stereo device?

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.
Hello,
Today I paired my HTC HD2 with Jabra BT3030 bluetooth stereo headset. Everything seems to work fine except a little issue - even with minimum volume settings a sound comming out of headset is faaaaar too loud.
Maybe you know if there's any fix for that? Of course setting volume on the phone does not bring any results. At this point listening to music with BT3030 kills my ears.
Regards.
i'm also thinking about buying this headset... any1 else have this problem?

I've the also a stereo Headset from SonyErisscon...
Same issue, it's too loud :-/
only solution till now - use a SW-Equalizer...
hi I have the jabra headset you have and the volume is just about perfect. maybe it could be to do with the ROM you are running and the region you got the phone from! I got my hd2 in Hong Kong and it came with 1.48 ROM preloaded. I do remember seeing a different thread with other people with the same problem as you on this forum. I also sure I sas some other threads on this board where people were looking for the registry weeks the raise the volume limit, but everything that is tried does not work. I hope you can sort your problem soon as the jabra headset is pretty good and the sound quality is very good.
I have the same equipement and I love it.
You can´t adjust the loudness via phone. You need to manage it via the bt receiver itself.

Right. There is a +/- which is for volume.
I reduce it every time because my In-Ears are very loud either.

yes same here. there is only one issue with the volume buttons on the device itself. everything else is great...
I have the same problem with my HD2 and Jabra BT3030.
Sound is too loud from earphone can't adjust in "HTC sense media player"
I tried Coreplayer and media player without this problem.
Today HTC informed me that maybe the devies are not compliant and I should take a look at www.htc.com for accessories. Amazing!!!
That's pretty sad that there is no registry tweak to fix that.
P.S.
I have 1.48 WWE

I assume that you mean SRS WOW? The problem is that its installation mess up with bt drivers. As a results you cannot turn bluetooth on.

I think I know enough... HD2 can't handle bluetooth headsets like the BT3030, I will return this product, and ask my money back
Strange... hard reset + BT3030 replacement (because one button was malfunctioning) = no problem. The minimum volume is in my scale "normal volume". It's not very silent, but fine for working and tripping.
The problem is known and seems to exist only in htc music player
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=590620
I guess HTC Sense Music Player is not compatiable with some BT headset.

question regarding to hiss problem
Hi guys,
Today i bought jabra bt3030 to paired with my htc hd2 headset. Everything works fine except there is a hiss sound problem which occured when playing music. I have change another stereo bluetooth headset ( SE HBH - DS970 ) and the hiss sounds problem still occured.
WHat caused the problem. Is there any fix to the hiss sound problem ? Thanks for your help!!!
Hello,
I have a wireless bluetooth stereo and when I connect it with HTC HD2 it always plays music to the loudest level. The volume control level of the phone (volume buttons on the left side) works fine (volume bar goes up and down) but the volume on the headset does not change.
I tried different music players (such as nitrogen which has volume control but still volume level didn't work).
However, when I am talking on the phone using the wireless bluetooth the volume control works fine. The volume controls works fine also when I have a wired headset connected.
This is my headset: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-is800
Anyone else had the same issue?
P.S. My wireless bluetooth headset is working fine as I have tested with other phones such as Toshiba TG1 (my previous phone - HTC is so much better), Sony Ericsson P1i etc.
Thank you
Use the volume control of the headset, then it'll work fine. The bt audio isn't routed through the HD2 volume control.

There is no volume control at the headset.
I have the same issue here and my headset worked fine with my Xperia X1.
This headset is A2DP and should work with this phone
Maybe it is something with the Widcom BT-stack vs. MS
..JL
As jorglund said, there is no volume control on this handset
Too bad, I can't use it with this phone.
You would expect a phone like HD2 to support it.
for media player: no digital volume control on this headset like holding the play button until volume changes up-down?
for phone calls: did you try volume control on phone while in a call? does that work? (that should work)
for media player: I tried to hold down the play button until but volume did not changed down/up (it works with other phones).
for phone calls: Yes that works fine, the volume controls for phone calls is ok.
The manual says some phones don't support volumecontrol. On my Sony headset holding the play-button controls it's own volume for audio. However I cannot change callvolume with that headset.
Must be one or the other.
You are right.
I also read on my headset manual the following:
"The music volume cannot be changed"
"Some mobiles do not support remote volume control. Please check the support website for downloading the additional software"
Hello! don´t waste your time friend, I have my hd2 since Dec. 1st and the same headset,HBH-IS800 from my previous phone, and tell you that unfortunately are not compatible with HD2.
thank you mate for letting me know
this the headset that I use now:
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDREX38iP-BLK-Earbud-Control/dp/B002M78JA2
is a very good one,no BT
I've got the same problem with my Jabra JX20 headset.
I use it for phone conversations, but not so long ago i remembered it supports A2DP. So i tried to listen some music through it, but the minimum volume is just killing my ears.
You can however adjust it somewhat through direct volume controls on the BT headset itself, but it is still way too loud if you turn it down to minimum.
I don't know who to blame here, HTC or Jabra, but i must say i'm really dissapointed with both of them since they so proudly state their A2DP capable phone/headset, but in the end you have to find out on your own if this A2DP thing really works (f***g lottery).
Does anyone know any software solution for this problem?
Same problem with my Jabra BT3030
Hello Guys
I use to have a HTC Touch which was a great little unit. I updated to the HD2 and tried to use my Jabra BT3030 (the one that looks like a set of army dog tags) and I have the same problem as you all. The music volume cannot be changed via the HD2. And the volume controls on the BT 3030 only reduce the volume a little regardless of what the volume is set up on the HD2. The HT3030 workded great with my old HTC Touch so what is the problem HTC? What is the problem and what is your! solution.
Are there any other bluetooth units out there that alow you plug in your own earbuds or canal phones (I use Etymotic er6i's and Shure SE240's)
Cheers guys

Hi guys,
Thought I share my experience with you.
I have the HD2 and the same BT SE headset, and the exact same problem. I have contacted HTC Customer Service and their reply is that the design of HD2 does not support remote volume control. FYI, I had the HTC Touch HD before and the same SE headset works great when listening to music; so much so my headset actually broke from natural wear and tear, and I have to have it repair/replaced. Unfortunately now it does not work with HD2.
I do hope HTC recognize the problem and that they will provide a fix soon. However, judging from the respone of the CS, I doubt that they are going to bother fixing it when they use the "design issue" as a shield. It is a little disappointing as HD2 is one of the greatest product of HTC yet.
Cheers!

What does this have to do with anything? Looking at the website, this driver appears to be for bluetooth keyboards and mice connections? Does this driver allow A2DP volume control? Anyone?
Am quite annoyed with this issue I have to say, I've upgraded from the Storm which was quite frankly the worst phone I've ever owned, but it connected and controlled my HBH-IS800 earphones perfectly. Would have expected much better from HTC. Have trawled the internet looking for a 3rd party A2DP volume control app, but no luck. I've noticed that one has been developed for Android though, so looks like this was an issue for that OS too but someone has stepped up to offer a solution. Any developers out there who could give it a shot for Winmo....really, anyone....?
Just FWIW, you can use SRS WOW HD to reduce the volume of A2DP audio on the HD2. Or at least, you can on my HD2!
1) Install SRS WOW HD, which I can't link you to directly because i'm still a "new user" apparently, but try tinyurl dot com slash ybxf4tt
2) Start => Settings => Menu => All Settings => System => WOW HD Settings
3) On the "WOW HD Settings" page, leave "Enable SRS" as disabled (no, really)
4) On the TruBass/Gain page, you will find "TruBass Level", "TruBass Equalizer" and "Output Gain" are disabled (because "Enable SRS" is disabled). However, "Input Gain" is enabled, and lowering it from its initial value of -1db will reduce the output level of sound played through A2DP.
This setting will survive the shutting-down of SRS WOW HD; it does not survive a soft reset. State the obvious, if it's still too loud at -12db you can turn on the full "Enable SRS" settings and play with the other sliders to get an acceptable level.
Working well with my HD2, Nitrogen audio player and Sony HBH-DS200.
I have HBH-IS800 and use Nitrogen. I know the volume control doesn't affect the volume of the headset, but if you go into the equalizer then the leftmost slider is for pre-gain. This adjusts volume and is how I use the headset with the device.
HTC have told me that they're aware of the issue and are working to fix it. That was over a month ago.
Altec lansing backbeat 906
Same story here. I bought a bt headset and volume control don't function properly. Pitty
Sorry to shout, but I guess it's the only way to get heard.
Use Nitrogen as your music player and use the pre-gain channel in the equalizer to change volume.
Hi guys, my 328i has a built in Aux input. And it works great with my Vibrants 3.5 output jack. The only issue I have is, the volume is just not as loud as It is listening from the mp3 CD. The volume for both the phone and car is at full volume.
When I usually listen to mp3 cds, the sound goes up way louder. Is there a way to hack the phone to output louder through the 3.5 jack? Or if any of you have the 328, is there some option to do that?
I don't know about mp3 cds but as for official cds bought from the store, they are definitely a lot louder that the phone through aux jack. Same deal with my g1 before I got the vibrant.I'm sure once the rooting and custom recovery is all sorted out and we start getting some custom roms, the devs will include volume hacks just like they did for the g1.

I'm quite satisfied with the volume. If you need to blow your ears off boost up the EQ.
Actually, it's really weird. Through headphones I can equalize my Vibrant and iPod to sound the same, but through AUX, the vibrant is quieter (Same volume settings). Really makes no sense to me. It has to be something with the equalizer...
Edit: But it is in no way quiet. I have to turn up my car stereo by like 4.
Try a different cable or a higher quality audio file.
I play songs between 192kbps to 328kbps and have no problems. The volume is at the same level since I used my mp3 cd.
appreciate the inputs, i'll look for the equalizer on the phone.
Have you guys tried sending the audio thru bluetooth audio enable car radio? Pretty cool no cables needed
I can even listen to pandora and send the audio to my stereo

whoa, i'm going to have to try this out. any advice?
I have the Pioneer Z110BT Navigation and it has bluetooth audio. Just pair your Vibrant to the Pioneer then play any song on your vibrant using the music player. Click options then "Via bluetooth".
Then go to your stereo and click on bluetooth audio. Voila! Streaming music from your Vibrant to car stereo. The sound is also great!!
Not to hijack this thread but my one complaint of the phone is how low call volume and audio volume are.
Everythings turned up to max and this phone is roughly half as loud as my MT3G is set at 50%.
I have a Sony xplode and play through Bluetooth, I get great sound.
I have no issues with call sound or ring levels. I actually have to turn it down sometimes because its to loud.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I built a custom cable to connect the headphone jack to my Pioneer's IPBUS connector - it works great, and is very loud. I keep both the head unit and phone's volume on half way, and depending on the song I may have to turn it down, too.
