not enough volume - General Topics

I have the XDA 11s and i am very happy with it except for the sound level on ring tone and sat nav
I have the bt hands free plug in lighter but that still is not as loud as i would like.
Is there a way of increasing the ring volume above what is in the volume function?
i have the ring tone at max and if it did not vibrate i would miss as many calls as i receive.

[Q] Mesmerize FROYO notification tone volume issue

Just wanted to see if any of you running the leaked FROYO rom for the mesmerize have come across this issue: when headphones/ear buds are plugged in to the phone for listening to media, and a text message arrives, the notification tone coming through the headphones/earbuds is very, very loud. I ran across this with this 2.2 build released here and did not experience this with 2.1.
If someone could verify that the notification tone coming through headphones/ear buds is painfully loud, I would appreciate it.
I talked to another user of 2.2 on his mesmerize and he experienced the same thing I did, however through bluetooth the notification volume level was fine.
Thanks!
Just did some resting with this. I didn't seem to have a extremely load volume on the notification. Have you checked the volume of your notifications in the setting? Try changing it and then send your self a text will listening to something thee the ear buds. I do some more testing.
Thank you for your reply.
Here's the story, in order for notification tones to be heard while the headphones are unplugged and in pocket, the notification volume has to be turned up pretty far, in turn when the headphones are plugged in, this makes the notification really loud, through the headphones. In order to avoid this problem, the notification level will have to be turned down every time the headphones are plugged in. With 2.1 the notification volume was reduced for the headphones even if the notification volume was maxed out.
Hope I make sense here. If you have your notifications volume maxed out are the notifications uncomfortably loud?
No there not. I'm also using ringing pro I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Ok. What is ringing pro?

That was supposed to be ringo pro. It lets you set custom tones for text and voice

Notification sounds cannot be unlinked from ringtone

So, the OnePlus One has amazing speakers, the best speakers I've had on a phone so far, but unfortunately, the speakers are so loud that the notifications start disturbing the people around me, so I have to turn them down, but that does not work, because I cannot unlink the volume of the notifications from the ringtone volume, so I am FORCED to have the ringtone volume down, so the notifications do not annoy the people around me.... and I DO get a lot of notifications.
I tried everything, but although the settings show that the ringtone volume and notifications volume are unlinked, it still doesn't work.
Someone please help me, I'm tired of having to keep my ringtone volume down just for this...
OnePlus One, stock ROM, 5.1.1 / Cyanogen OS version 12.1-YOG4PAS1N0

Ring volume lower than slider setting.

I've only just noticed this but when I set my ring volume using the Ring Volume slider in settings, you hear a quick preview of how loud it is when you let go.
Also when choosing the Ringtone with Sound Picker, you again hear the Ringtone preview.
What I've noticed is that when I actually ring the phone myself, the volume is noticeably lower than the preview.
I tired the same test on my XZ but that rings at the same volume as the slider control.
My Z3 has not been in water, or dropped, or anything like that. Both speakers are working when previewing and when ringing.
Has anyone else noticed this?
I even tried a factory reset but it's still the same.
P.S. I am running pre rooted 23.5.A.1.291. It's the CE 1288-7914 firmware.
Same problem

Volume notification sounds

The volume of ringtone and notification sound can not be adjusted seperatly. At itself not a problem except for the fact that notification volume is way higher then ringtone volume. If I set the volume lower then the ringtone cannot be heard anymore and the notification volume is still to high.
If I set the volume higher then the notification will become a disturbence.
I have tried some 3rd party apps to manage volume of ringtones and notifications seperatly. But those do not seem to be capable off manageing notification volume and ringtone volume seperatly either.
For now I have decided to turn off notification sounds because off the volume.
I have had an OP6 before the OP Nord. There the volume of ringtones and notifications could not be managed seperatly as well but at least the volume of both ringtone and notification was in sync (equal loudness).
Anyone else noticed this? Any ideas on how to get the notification volume in line?
Do you use own file for ringtone? You can edit it, increase volume, e.g. in Audacity on PC, so it will be louder than notification sounds, and then lower ringtone volume.
Sent from my Nord using XDA Labs
Yeah, it is not a OP ringtone.
Strange thing is I have been using this ringtone on my OP6 previously where I did not have this "volume" problem.
I will give Audacity a try.
Thx.
Hi try this app, This might work for you.
It will increase ringtone volume to 100% before receiving normal call.
P.S tested on galaxy devices.

Notification sounds volume gets very quiet in bluetooth headset, almost inaudible

I use a bluetooth headset almost all of the time. Sometimes, the volume of the notification sound gets very quiet. Inaudible, really, unless I turn up the headset volume and the ring and notification volume slider to the maximum volumes. Even at the maximum volume settings, I can barely hear the notification sounds. I am able to reproduce the problem by going into the settings and changing the default notification sounds. I can just keep selecting different sounds, listening to the previews and suddenly, the volume will go quiet.
I am totally stock, not unlocked or rooted in any way. It was happening on Android 11 and is still happening on Android 12. Can anyone help me fix this problem?
