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.

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.
If I connect my i9000 to the car stereo (Kenwood) via the headphone jack on the phone and Aux jack on the front of the stereo, the sound is really quiet, even with stereo on full volume. I'm using Gingerbread.xxivo.
Any ideas?
set volume to max on phone.
Try headphones to find out if the phone has issues or something else (cable, car stereo).
Does the bluetooth audio also have a crippled sound level? Android phones sound like garbage connected to my car's AUX line because of the extremely low max level, I have to crank the volume to hissing speaker blowing levels just to hear it while driving and trying to listen to a podcast with the windows down is basically impossible, Apple devices sound perfect and I dont have to crank the volume at all so I know its not the radio's problem. Thinking of buying a Belkin bluetooth car adapter and using that if the bluetooth audio isnt lowered.
Just curious, say you've set the volume level of your car at a certain level. Then you set up your 2015 X to stream music to the car. How loud is that compared to plugging your phone's headphone output to the car's AUX input, without changing the car's speaker volume?
From my experience itsbvirtually the same. Although my Bluetooth dongle just broke andbi ordered an in car dlna setup to replace it instead so I can't test itbnow
Just wondering if anyone else has this problem. My g6 connects to my car everytime but the volume is much lower than when I have the radio on sirrius or even fm stations. The bluetooth volume on the phone is all the way maxed and I can actually max the radio volume without it being that loud. When on FM radio, I won't get even close to maxing the volume before it's too loud. Is there an equalizer or some audio setting for output? BTW, it's actually the same when I plug the headphone jack into the car with a 3.5mm cable. Thanks for any ideas and advice.
Nobody else has noticed? Could it just be my car's Bluetooth?
I use mine on my car daily with no issue.

I use an app called RE EQ from that play store. It works with music player and pandora, Use the slider on the left to bump up the output. It is a great sounding EQ!
