Ever since installing the first CM7 built at the beginning of the year my phones external speaker has been substantially quieter when compared to Samsung Rom's. I have turned off the voodoo sound option to tune speaker for music, which makes it only slightly louder. On Samsung rom I was able to always hear my phone ring and incoming notifications, lately I have been missing a lot because the external speaker volume is just too low. Anyone have any solutions to increase the maximum volume of the phone speaker? Thx

Aha, I thought I was getting deafer from nightly to nightly, but also noticed the lower volume. Think that on #96, it was still like stock.
dont you think you would get more help on cm forum ?
which versions are you talking about.
I'm running #102 and do not notice anything like it.
Go to DSP manager->phone speaker->enable equalizer. Then select custom preset and increase the last 3 bars to around +5. Reduce the last one if u getting too much treble

Hi,
It is kind of really annoying, the sound (earphone) isn't lound enough, I really like when it is loud. I do have good earphone, on my iPad, it can be so much loud that I could get deaf. Anything to fix ? I've tried 3 differents Volume Booster on the Google Market and it makes a little louder but still not enough and break all the sound quality.
Thanks you ! I'm runing Stock 4.1.1
Anyone plase?

Nope, it is what it is. It sounds like you already tried something like Volume+ to boost the volume. It helps a little, but it starts sounding bad if you crank it too high and you could possibly damage it too. I have Volume+ set to 7, which gives a bit of a boost without messing up the audio much.
Yeah I see :/ Is it a hardware limit or software related?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I think it's hardware since every software hack to make it louder gives a little boost and then it sounds like crap.

Oh well that sucks :/ Why didn't google bother to use a good sound card for headphone
What if I use Blutooth hearphone? Is it going te be as great as an iPad?

Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

People have been reporting broken speakers when playing too loud. Just be cautious
I aleady use Volume+ and it is not enough.
If I buy Bluetooth headphone, will it be better?

No bluetooth will make no difference.

I find the volume of my Nexus 7 just fine, both internal speaker and headphone. But I guess the experience can vary between people and device...

Really Why not
It's not necessarily hardware, my asus transformer had low volume, then an os update sorted that all out. Have you tried out different apps to see if the problem is there on all of them. I noticed that netflix volume is pretty low but youtube is fine. It's a bit of a pain to do, but it might be worth backing up your apps and trying a factory reset.
Oh well I change rom so often that it will unlikely change anything

Unless you use Bluetooth speakers. I had a Logitech Boombox arrive today. Works great.
Guys, I had issues with the speaker volume, but they somehow fixed themselves. Yesterday I tried to listen to some music and my headphones were barely audible outdoors at full volume. I'm quite sure the headphones are fine, as they are rather loud when plugged into my wife's iPhone, but with Nexus 4 I get may be 1/3rd of their usual volume at 100% slider setting.
I tried to search on the forum and Google it, but could find a guide to fix this issue. Has anyone encountered and successfully fixed low 3.5mm jack volume?
I would appreciate your suggestions! Thanks!
Are you rooted?
If yes you can try an audio mod like xLouder or Viper4Android.
If not you can use poweramp to boost everything although it will probably sound like ****.

Thanks for your response!
I'm not rooted, running fully stock. I don't really need to boost *everything*, just the headphone output, it's the only thing that has low volume.
Just wondering if it distorts or not when at max volume? Is it normal?

mine does cause i have very loud sound mode
Yes it does. It is normal for this phone. HTC one is the only phone with decent speakers. I'm looking into bluetooth speakers to use at home but it's hard to know the best deal for as little $ as possible. I'm not springing for Bose speakers.
Beamed from my Galaxy Note 3
Yup

Yup mine also distorts. Viper4android has helped alleviate this problem for me at high volumes.
