Low Volume?

Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if it's just me or the volume on the ring tones (mp3) is too low, in comparison with most cell phones? I have perfect sound with mp3 and the headset. But I think the volume of the ring tones are just too low.
I also think the hands free is a bit low too. Well, the speaker in the back doesn't help much...
Any thoughts? Suggestions? Something?
Can anyone help out on this?
Already tried the WOW SRS, and that doesn't affect ring tones.
Also tried to change the registry in HKey_Current_User\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring\InitVol to 7 (it was 5)
And also, I've read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=360650, from top to bottom and didn't find a solution.
Anyone?
I need some help here. Does anyone know how to solve this?

Raphael low sound fixed (almost)

J dont think that it is posted here,so from Diamond forum the file below makes Raphael sounds louder.Test it to mine & works, BUT it's a little disorted (with .wav files j use) ,maybe someone with enough knowledge fix it.
Media player now its loud, havent test it in incoming ringtones or bluetooth.
It doesnt sound well when SRSWOW is on.
The problem is that there is not enough power available from the audio amplifier. This can't be corrected with software.
What this .cab does is probably that it tries to increase the amplification beoynd the capabilities of the device. This may make the sound seem louder, but as you have noticed, it also increases distortion. There is no workaround for the laws of physics...
So we are really really stuck with a very inferior product.
I installed SRSWOW but lost all sounds

Did you change the dll file in the registry so that if points at the right one? Its been written a couple of times the the SRSWOW cab going about set the wrong values in the reg. So I think this should be an easy fix if you do a bit of searching. Try the Daimond forums.
Either this problem varies from device to device, or then Ijust dont understand how loud you guys need...
When my wife calls, she shouts so loud I even have to tone done volume
@WizP: I'll do a search for the fix.
@Taajuus: The sound must be decent enough....

I have my volume set to the halfway mark. I'm talking about the conversation volume, only settable while in a call, not the system or ringer volumes.
Those that are reporting low volume, is it the ringer, system, or call volume you are complaining about? In other words, is it the front or the rear speaker that's producing low volume?
The ring volume is more than fine, it's just the speaker volume when in a call, when outsuide you can hardly hear it
Yes, I concur.
I've got my in call volume at maximum and you can still barely hear the other person.
Before you ask, I don't have a screen protector covering the earpiece.
I still wonder - I havent had any problems with incall voice. Can hear person very clearly even outside in traffic noise.
Could this really be single device problem, or maybe operator dependant?
With that audiopara file in my raphael (ROMeOS V.1.05) the speakerphone volume is now hugh,the music playback is loud, but a little disorted, but j think that there was no serious change in incoming ringtones (though j use only wav files-that are much louder from mp3's.
As far as the disortion a new modified audiopara file that suits well with Raphael should make the difference.
J will try some mods with SRSWOW..
Worked here... But the sound is VERY distorted..
Couldn't find a way around it with SRS (Tried treble reducer) and no luck.
I can´t even here when I´m talking to somebody, but I still have that plastic over the earpiece but still! There´s NO sound at all through it (well really really low), I have max volume, will it get better with the screenprotecter that doesn´t block the small speaker?

REMOVE THAT. It's the same thing if I tried to yell to you with a wall in between us. Sound has difficulty traveling through a medium, specially a piece of plastic.
Dear Taajuus,
Could this really be single device problem

Well... yes sit can because:
1. There are several related problems that are not seen in all devices.
2. Not all Raphaels [Touch Pro] are the same model, make or version.
or maybe operator dependant

It can never be related to the operator because:
1. The operator's interaction with the device is the one of a comm carrier.
2. It's only possible influence would be with/thorough the radio, never the ROM.
3. The operator cannot directly interact with the hardware.
Cheers.

how do you install this?
The sound is distored cause tripp modified the values of the gain but put it too high. If some one could put lower values it would be great. I tried but didn't manage . I also tried to put the values of the HTC NIKE but it resulted in a lower sound that the original one.

Ah, so that's how you install it ololol better write this on the first post...
Well for me this file really fixed the sound of my device, specially the earspeaker!! Now I have to lower the system sound so I don't get deft
I recommend everyone to use it...
So do u actually mean that this cab file has increased the volume on a call or just the general sound???

X10 Ringer volume

So we have root!
Somebody known app or tweak to increase the ringer volume?
Thx
I have no idea!
The volume of the ringer in my X10i is also too bad.
sometime I can't hear what the people said.
I also want to know how to change it.
So no one found a way to increase the ringer volume? I feel sometimes that I am going deaf. I may have to change my ringtone, but this is really annoying missing calls while you are driving.
Ringer as well as incall volume is too low in the X10.

true, but at least I can illuminate the in call volume issue with using bluetooth headset but the ringer...
This is weird that there is no hack for it.
Just use a decent ringtone, I've not found the volume to be a problem.
hey guys
i know theres not a hack for the volume ringer, but what i did was i use a program which can edit music files on my PC, and i just increase the actual volume of the file itself. then i transfer it to my phone and it plays a lot louder on the speaker. hopefully that can work for some of u
the program i use is called 'cool edit pro' however im sure theres a couple of programs which can do the same thing.
the effect is called 'increase amplitude', i usually use a scientific filter to decrease the amount of base in a song (which hte x10's speakerphone distorts anyways) and then increase the amplitude by about 10dB's. makes it a lot louder on the actual phone vs just putting the original mp3 in.

Ringtone is decent, volume sucks.
Thanks for your solution but that wasn't what I was looking for. I want to explode my speaker and I am looking for a hack.
Cheers,
search google for editing audiopara.csv, not sure how to do it myself as I find the volume to be mostly fine, but that is the key to changing it
just lookied at my /system dump, it's actualy audiofilter.csv on x10, and it's in system/etc

[Q] Incoming Call Ringer Volume VERY Low

Sory for my english ;]

I had this problem once but I soon found out it was something to do with the ROM I was on. What ROM are you on? Does it happen with the stock ringtones too? One thing that it could potentially be is that the MP3 file you're using is recorded below normal volume. You could use a third party software to boost the normal volume level to say +3 db to compensate for the low level.
BTW, this should have been posted in Q and A. I can see that you're new here but just so you know for future references.
yes it happen with the stock ringtone too ;/ So tell me how i can boost the volume ?

Low ringtone/notification volume fix?

Hello, I have a regular pixel 3 and the ringtones/notifications are way too soft. I've noticed that if I'm playing a game or watching a video, the volume is great when notifications come through. Is there a way for notifications and ringtones to use the same audio channel (not sure if I'm using the right terminology here) that video and games use? I've read that it's "working as intended" per Google, and notifications and ringtones only play through the bottom speaker. Just trying to find a way to not miss so many calls when the phone is in my pocket.
Tldr: the notifications are too soft, and can it be fixed.?

Does that require further configuration, or will it "just work" after installation? I've read about it, and I think I need root for it, which I'm willing to do, just want to make sure I can get it working if I go the root route.

2.7.1 pretty much just works, you still need to configure it to Ur taste but it's a lot easier to install than previous versions
That's awesome, thanks for your answers. Final question - do you have viper4android installed on your pixel 3 and can confirm the audio plays out of both top and bottom speakers at a louder volume?
Yes it does indeed
Both Speakers for Ringer?

If you read a couple of posts up, I asked the same question and acidspider said viper4android does utilize both speakers for notifications and ringtones and plays at a louder volume according to him/her. As to configuration, I don't know. I haven't tried it yet. I was probably gonna wait a bit and try it later. Maybe after the August updates.
Clean it with alcholo
Still not loud and doesn't use both speakers

I've tried every setting I could and the Pixel 3 ringers and notifications are still not loud and will not play out of the top speaker!
Someone should be able to figure this out?
It would really help if both speakers were utilized.

Just a screenshot of the main page and also have unconfirmed it is processing when playing music through speaker?
Viper Settings
Yes both speakers work except for ringers and notifications.
I don't see why that shouldnt work, have you the audio modification library and audio compatibility mod installed from magisk?
Yes they are installed. No matter what I do the ringer will not come out of the top speakers nor get loud enough.

Maybe edit mixer_paths?
ok, ringtone/notification still low volume, but after testing the viper4android IS working in general sounds. Just not for the ringtone/notification, lol!
I haved personalised ringtone and the volume war too low. Since I use the officially ringtone, this is fine for me.
No solution found!

No, I haven't found a solution and the phone is still brand new in the box since it is useless if I can't hear it ring!
I also have a 3XL and the ringers and notifications also only come out of the bottom speaker but at a higher level.
I know someone can or has already figured it out.
