Bluetooth volume - GS7 and Beats Bluetooth headphones... - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I have used my Beats Powerbeats 2 bluetooth headphones every day for months. With my GS5 about half volume was as I needed while running but since getting the S7, full volume is not as loud as half volume was before. I have tried a couple of those volume increasing apps but nothing seems to work. Anyone else notice a decrease in Bluetooth volume? Any fix for it?

Probably viper4android when root is attained.

volume output for headphone to low

is the volume for all these phone just to low when using headphone?
i use monster turbine and even at max volume listing to zune player on this phone its just to low i want the volume to be way louder
anyone else have this issue?
im coming from iPhone 4 and thats the only good thing ill give that apple does is there headphone volume output is loud as hell i just hope this phone can do the same with maybe a software update -_-
I haven't used any other headphones besides the set that came with the phone and those were plenty loud.
I've tried several different headsets to get desired results, it's weird but some headsets don't have the same performance as on the iphone.

Bluetooth Volume Low

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to boost bluetooth playback volume. I have beats wireless studio headphones and they are definitely not as loud as they were when using them with my g3 on CM12. I do remember them being this low on the stock lg rom but when I switched over to CM the sound drastically increased. I am looking for a no root solution if possible as I am stock for the time being. I can't even feel any bass from these things and that's what they are supposed to be for lol. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
Interesting. CM12 killed my BT volume on my HAM2. I find BT audio to be just as loud as other devices I have. One thing I've noticed is that BT max volume seems louder if I make sure volume is maxed out before pairing, especially on devices that take over phone volume controls.
Unpair the headphones. Turn phone volume to maximum. Turn headphones volume to maximum. Then pair.
I'm interested as well the mixer_paths would be where we need to look but they look different than I've seen before. I've found a mod from 2014 I'll report back.

Has someone sorted out the bt volume? I also have a very low volume over the bluetooth music, as I'm using it in the car...
It also depends on the headphone I have different Bluetooth headphones and some are loud and some are not.
Well it's not headphone previous nexus 5x was fine, if there is a way to increase bt volume
Viper4arise solved the problem, however 7.1.2 also make the bt volume normal, problem fixed
Just is someone have the samr issue
The P9 is also a little less loud on BT than any other phone i had.

Low AUX Volume (ZE551KL)

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but the volume output from the 3.5mm headphone jack is much lower for me than any other phone I've owned. With the volume maxed out, I have to almost crank my car audio volume all the way up to hear songs, and in general, I need to have it at least twice as high as I did with my Galaxy S3 or Droid 4.
I've tried a few volume boosting apps in the Play Store, but none of them made a significant difference. I've also tried messing with every setting in the Audio Manager App, which can make it slightly louder, but also distorts the audio (crackling noises).
I've read that rooting and using a root-specific app of some kind may help the issue, but I don't believe rooting is an option for the ZE551KL yet.
Anyone know a solution that will work?
With earphones working good?

It is less noticeable with headphones, but I haven't used them for an extended period of time. I thought maybe it was my AUX cable, but its the same one I used with my older phones and had no issues.

What's the issue with headset volume?

I'm just curious what the reported issue is with the wired headset volume on the Nexus 6P. I just tried mine for the first time (I don't often wear headphones) and I was unable to go to the maximum volume. The loudest I could go without hurting my ears was 2 notches down from maximum. So, for me, the headset volume is more than adequate. It is at least as loud as my Nexus 5 was. So, for the people reporting issues with the headset volume and the need to boot it via root+mod, do they 1. Have a hardware defect 2. Have a headset that requires more amplification than my Sennheisser ear buds, or 3. Have less sensitive ears?
As for sound quality, I didn't put too much attention into it, but there wasn't any immediately obvious difference for me vs. my old N5.

Never understood this myself, I too have sennheiser in-ear earphones, I never go to max volume.

I have Sennheiser in ear phones and at max volume it sounds normal. But in a loud area (subway, airport, etc) it will be difficult to hear a quiet song.
I have sennheiser over the ears, and the sound is not very loud at all at max.
wasnt on my N5 either... I dont wanna root, but this is the only thing that may change my mind
From experience, the 5x and 6p's wired volume is significantly less loud than the Moto (G 2015, X Pure) or iPhone (5, 6), or, for that matter, any desktop/laptop. On those, I usually play music around 50% on my ATH-M50x, but on the 5x/6p, I had to crank it up to two clicks from the top for the same perceived volume.
Not sure if it's software or a chip/amp thing.
The headset volume is fine for me as well... It is lower than several of my last phones, but it's plenty loud.
I had several of the last HTC One phones M7, M8, M9....Which all sounded amazing and had too much volume IMO, The MOTO X Pure and Galaxy S6 were both also louder than the 6P, and louder than you really need.
The only time I have seen an issue, is when I plug into the AUX port on my car stereo and play music.... Some of the older, lower volume songs require me to turn my phone up 100% and the volume on my radio is about 80-85% the way up. Not really a problem, until I unplug it and my radio comes in about 3 times louder.
Now that I think about it, weirdly, Bluetooth headset volume is also lower.
I pair with a Moto Surround BT headset and on the Moto G, I could have the phone at 50% and headset at 50% and it was plenty loud. With the 6P, if I am lifting in a busy gym I can hear everyone talking around me even at max volume.
Odd.

Bluetooth Media Volume Increase

Is there a relatively easy way to increase the volume of media via Bluetooth without installing Viper4Android or similar app? For the most part, the volume is just fine. I am a landscaping supervisor and spend most of my days on a mower cutting grass. I recently bought some new Beats Power Beats BT headphones and the volume just isn't loud enough while on the mower. If I used my Beats wired headphones, they are plenty loud enough. I had the same issue on my Galaxy S5 but I fixed it using Wanam on Xposed I believe. Thanks in advance for any help.
I have the Samsung Level U Pro Bluetooth headset, and they are an amazing set in manipulating volumes. I can adjust the volume of the headset themselves separately from the phone's own Bluetooth volume. So this ultimately let's me put it on full blast from the volume controls of both the phone and the headset (not that I want to since I already blown my right ear nearly 6 years ago, which leaves me with tinnitus to this day).
Anyway, that's just my two cents about having loud volumes.
My Power Beats headphones have a separate volume adjustment also and it helps, they just quite don't get loud enough. I know what you mean about too loud as well but its either headphones or mower noise. 6 in one, half a dozen in the other in my opinion. And honestly, I listen to audio books as I am mowing, not music, so it's just a narrators voice and not loud music....but it does me no good if I can't hear the narrator that is reading the book. I'd rather it be able to get TOO loud and I can turn it down than to not be able to hear it over a running mower.
