Using WM6 Vodafone v1520. And as the headline says, when in call, the volume slider has absolutely no effect whatsoever. I can only hear the ticking of the slider (or watch it move up/down) but it doesn't affect the volume level of the earpiece. If I switch to speaker phone the speaker phone slider works just fine. Have searched for solution for this topic but apparently I am the only sucker with this problem. Have done hard resets but no luck.
If anyone has come across any solution for this, please help.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that I have tried changing all the registry keys that I've found but also no luck.
Thanks.

I am having same problem V1520 owner aswell.
I believe due to hands free problems that the bluetooth stack is rubbish not sure if that is part of the problem, including radio version.
hi there,
i have the same problem, do you have any solution?
Nope. And VF basically told me to ...
You know what I mean.
ASUS warranty should cover it though.
yet more bluetooth...
I have the same issue, I get around it by using the volume control on my bluetotth earpiece. Beyond that there seems to be no other way.
Also having issues trying to get BT keyboards to work.
I don't use BT earpiece currently. I thought about it but the idea still feels strange to me... Gonna consider it once I start using the phone.
Thanks for the information tho
UPDATE:
After arguing with ASUS support for two months I was able to get an upgrade to firmware for 45$. I haven't yet got the device from the service, I will on Monday but they told me that in-call volume is now adjustable and working. Hope everything else is still working
Good luck.
Hey guys,
Im looking for a volume booster since i listen to music on my phone everyday, i tried Audio Hack
but seems not to work on my Evo (its unrevoked rooted, if that helps) let me know if anyone can help me out. I need volume like the iphone!! Love my Evo tho.

Just wanted to bump this. The past several days have afforded me the chance to stream music on my evo from xm at work, and could for sure use just a little more volume to hear it over the noise of my workplace.

Volume for music seems pretty loud for me if the phone is close to you. Isn't anyone worried about damaging the speaker? My previous phone after a year the sound quality for music sucked and I didn't even use it that much..Had to get a replacement and really noticed a difference. I'm afraid I'm going to damage the speaker over time just having the volume up all the way without an audio boost hack.
I actually would love to boost the headphone volume.
It's fine most of the time, but when I'm on the train it can be difficult to hear even when I have the headphone volume at full.
agreed, the volume out of the headset seems pretty low especially when in a loud area

Seems to me this is probably more of an issue with the particular headset you are using. The EVO gets pretty loud on my headset.
There's an ear piece volume boost in nentarchy's kernel. I'm actually going to flash to latest one he just released cause once you go too high, things get distorted. He lowered it a bit supposedly in the new release.

i can say that the iphone headphones are lower in volume compared to my sony headphones by far. not touching the volume and just switch headsets i have to lower the volume on the sony's..... the sony headset are true stereo headphones and not for phones as they do not have a mic.
is there any way to make the rings louder? i remember there was a hack to make the touch pro louder and i wish there was something to make the evo louder everything is perfect except that i rarely hear my phone as its always in my pocket ive even make the quality higher on ,my ringtones and its still the same...

we would be nice if someone would reply to this thread with an idea or a fix for this as i would be interested because my speaker volume is too low i had in idea of hex editing any comments on this idea would be nice
Well i use always semi professional headphones, since, to me, common ones suck to no end (professionals are way to expensive through). If I put the sound on the maximun or one level down, sounds good on normal musics (CD base decibels). Non normalized files (lower volume) become pratically inaudible. This happens also with the speaker.
I dont want to continuously have a 12 inch speakr on my EVO, i just want to listen in a heatly safe - good volume without put on max and up when file have a lower volume. XD
Seems fine to me with the included headphones... Not sure if using PowerAmp while listening to my albums is making a difference but volume seems about right foe r me...
how about without Headphones the volume is still not loud without them...no problem with headphones on
Guy, the problem has to do with more than the Evo. If your impedance level is high with the headphones you are using then the Evo cant drive them. Ultimately any 'hack' is just going to cause distortion at high levels. You need to get some sort of amp. I suggest CMOY.

things i can recommend. IF you are rooted.
1.BEFORE TRYING THE FOLLOWING DO A LOT OF READING. IT HELPS.
2. try an alternate kernel..... either netarchy toastod or ziggy. they have audio
tweaks built into them.
3. dsp manager. allows you to tweak audio further.

Anyone else experiencing this in Qik? Tried over wifi and 3G, downloaded all updates. The volume is very low. Does this happen to anyone else?
OMG yes! I thought I was the only one? It's too damn hard to hear who I'm talking to. The person even asked me why I would bring the phone up to my ear every time he spoke. I hope an update can fix this.
I experienced the same thing using Tango. Tried doing a test chat with my friend on his iphone. He kept asking me to repeat myself and said the volume was low. I could hear him fine.
So, just to see, I tried it with the headphones and mic... MUCH better, he could hear me fine.
At first I thought it was the case maybe getting in the way, but taking it off didn't help at all.
Not sure what to make of it... hopefully, it is just some software problem and nothing major.
This is my first post BTW... After leaving the iphone a couple of months ago I have tried 3 Samsung Captivates (Galaxy S), 2 G2's, and 2 MT4G's... I think I finally got a keeper. This thing is redonkulous!

same - tried over data and wifi. However... girlfriend used headphones and no headphones, and iphone head phones... could barely hear here. it would cut in and out sometimes too... she couldn't hear me half the time either... helllppppp this is why we bought this stupid phone!
i had the same problem today, i hope it's just a matter of an update, other than that this phone is awesome! i can't believe i got a MyTouch after having a g1, i thought i'd be a loyal vanilla user but this phone was too sweet to pass up
lol @2071. Yea I'm about to get it Tomorrow coming from a g1. I wish this was vanilla, or i can at least root
Double check that your call is going through the speakerphone. Is it possible that the video call audio is defaulting to the earpiece? I wonder because if it sounds normal using headphones then there's probably nothing wrong. Just a guess.
The other side they can hear me perfectly. Its just my ability to hear them. During the call, if I push the volume keys, the volume meter comes up on the phone as "media volume." Also, if I make a regular non-video call and put it on speaker, the speaker is LOUD. So its just confined to video calls..... Also, other media (music) is LOUD.
Ya I have also tried Tango and its the same low volume on The network or my wifi. I haven't tried headphones yet though.

I can confirm low volume as well. Seems to work way better with headphones in for both sides.

Alright, well make sure you all call in to tmo tech support so this becomes a known issue quickly!
im not experiencing low volume... what i am experiencing is when talking to my friend, I had to switch the mic on and off each time I wanted to talk and hear him.. kinda like a 2 way radio

Darn. I found out that the sony MDR-EX38iP are only partially compatible. Not sure about it's mic, but the volume controls don't seem to do anything.
I'll be testing Wal-Mart's no hassle return policy in the morning.
I'm having some trouble finding a hands free solution that's got music, and volume controls, a mic and stereo in earbuds. Anybody know of such an animal?
There's two other's that I've yet to try: the Skullcandy Titan headset, and the one's from JVC with the marshmallow earbuds.
The headset earphones that came with my DZ are better than the ones that came with my Dream, at least they stay in my ears, but I sure miss having volume controls as part of the remote.
walmart took them back, plus i tried and returned the scosche tapline headset because it didn't work either. well, at least the volume controls didn't work.
Has anyone got the SonyEricsson MH-810 Stereo Headset for Xperia? these might work since they're made for the android platform, not iOS.
Might be an app
I had trouble getting a headset with a mic to work at first. I thought the jack might be defective, but regular earbuds worked. I also noticed that it detected if I had a headset with or without a microphone. (the icon on top would change)
Then my husband told me he saw on some forum, that there's a known problem with headphones with a mics, if you have another music app installed other then the native one.
I had previously installed Winamp, so I uninstalled it and now both the HTC & the Apple headset with mic work fine.
Might be worth it to give it a try, if you have a another music player installed.

so @Milady_Odessa, with your apple headset, you can:
*answer & initiate calls
*change volume up and down
can you be more specific regarding which apple headset you are using, or possibly a picture?
Sorry I should have specified, it's the regular earbud/mic combo that came with the iPhone. It essentially does the same thing as the headset that came with my Z phone.
It can answer & adjust volume, turn on your media player. It can't initiate calls, but it can dial/call back the last number that called you by double-clicking on the middle button.

Thanks for elaborating, and the picture! hmmm, still not idea.
I would like to have the same functionality I have with the headset that I got for my Dream.
I thinking of getting a set of sony ericsson mh810 off ebay for about thirty dollars, but I would like to confirm that that the voice dialer / search feature works first.

I bought the HTC HS U350. This allows you to plug in your own earphones in to the mic piece. So far it works great but i do miss having controls for skipping music and also volume. I guess it will do until i find something better
I have the G2 with the Desire Z ROM and the iPhone headset that came with my 2G iPhone and the replacement one I bought about a year after are both working. After plugging them in I see a headset icon, and I tested using the Voice Recorder app and on a phone call, mic was working fine. As far as I know nothing was touched on the ROM from the shipped other than pre-rooted things like busybox, superuser, etc.
I've just tested Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket headset which is designed to work specially with iPhone - music sounds good, stop-play button works (with 1 second lag though), calls are good as well - mic works fine, you can answer and stop the call by pressing the button on the remote.
I tested with Desire Z and Desire.
I was hoping to get Klipsch S4i to use as headset, hopefully they will work with Desire Z

Hi all
Anyone thought of using Sony mw600?
I only had this little marvel for 3 days (fone only 10 days) and I dare say it works beautiful.
It takes/makes calls without a glitch. It even displays the callers number ( didn't manage to make it display contact name yet, though)
Also it controls nicely my poweramp app, does prev/next, play/pause, and volume. It's got in ear detachable headphones, and it uses same microusb interface for charging as our lovely phones
All of this for around £30 of eBay!
It's not bad, is it?

I am not rooted yet, but when I do (soon, probably tonight) I will try it and let you know if/when I do.
the s10's do work, and they work pretty far away too (I can go from one end of the house to the other), plus they have a mic, you can change volume, song, track, etc from the headset too.
Hope that helps

I am still using my Motorola S9 headphones. They work well for music listening OR headset/mic but not both at the same time. Do the new S10HD work better? I always just disable headset profile for mine so as to avoid issue, but would love to have all functions available. For example, if you connect to both headset and a2dp simultaneously and then use voice search it fails to initialize the headset mic and uses the internal mic on the tablet/phone. This was a known issue of the S9 so I am hoping you can test and inform if it is resolved.
