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.

How to install audiopara (to 'ekerbuddyeker")
Get in /Windows,search for audiopara3.csv, MAKE A BACKUP, use resco exp. and copy the new audiopara to /Windows, soft reset and done.

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???

Low Volume on G1 Speaker

Have you noticed the extremely low volume of the G1 speaker. i can bearly hear the audio whever i play mp3 or video files. Even the phone ringing is relatevly low compared to any phone i have ever owened!!!
Is there a way to alter the hardware setting and get higher volume out the speaker???

Seems fine to me, doesnt seem too low, mayb its the mp3 ur using. I raise the volume of my files with itunes, but even the default sounds on the G1 seem fine.

Yeah, adjust music/video volume using the keys on the side of the phone while playing a song.
I'm sure you already did that so.... there's a program called volume control that let's you adjust every volume setting the phone offers. Also, my speaker has never been that loud anyways but that program helps a bit.

Any one of you guys know where i can but a new speaker phone peace/thing for the G1. I blew mines out with the volume hack. -.- Thanks in advance.

I've noticed the low volume on Cyanogen's ROM, but on every hero ROM I've tried it seems MUCH louder.

I've noticed it too, but I've always used Meltus' AudioHack app to correct that problem.

The only thing I noticed on the G1 that is weak would be the vibrate. That is pretty weak.

My phone started doing this before donut was out. I was using Xrom, and thought it was the rom causing it. I'm running Dwang 1.13 now, and discovered that my issue is being caused by T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail apk. The speaker would work great until I opened VV. The VV apk, routes the media sounds through the headset speaker, like when holding the phone to your ear in a phone call, but it doesn't always re-route the media sounds (and ringer for that matter) back to the loud speaker. There is a hack/apk/widget out to fix it, claiming it to be a cupcake issue, but I only had it happened to me after using VV.
To figure out if you have the same issue, block the loud speaker with your finger and play a song. If it gets louder when you remove your finger from covering the loud speaker, then you have a different issue. If it stays the same volume, block and unblock the headset speaker to see if it changes.

If you are running MT3G/Magic You can also try this on the G1 to see if you get better sound
CM's system usually doesn't add the MT3G Sound XML
Download and run this: http://drop.io/tfwtv3d/asset/volmt3g-signed-zip
If this doesn't help, use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517745

i had this more then one , dont know for sure bit this is after i did a switchrom, a simple reboot is a fix

I always cup my hand under the phone when watching videos, it boosts the volume a bit

This problem is really annoying, can someone post a link to the fix for me, I haven't been able to find it.

This also happend to my phone. Started with the last stable before the whole google thing with cyan. Tried a hero rom and it was pounden out sound.
So if anyone does have any insight on how to fix this, with reasoning, that would be nice. No "i did this and reset and it just worked" stuff.
Thanks

Also wish my G1 would be louder when a phonecall came in. My older HTC Juno was extremely loud which I prefer because Im not where my phone is 100 percent of the time.
I would also greatly appreciate some insight on how to make the speaker louder with some tweaks and or apps.
Thanks in advance.

Use Meltus' audio hack, it makes the phone really loud. I suggest using g7-6r2

Aye, that should do it
Also, for people experiencing routing problems, my files might also fix that too.
The G7 files included fixes so that they would run on the Cupcake/Donut/Hero/Sapphire. It might fix it, i'm not promising anything though

+1 If your G1 is quiet download Audio Hack from the market and it will not be quiet anymore. People tell me all the time, "dude your phone is ridiculously loud". I love it..

Meltus' app is amazing, i used to hate when i went to show everyone a video from youtube and you cant hear nothing when your out in public. Def recommend it to anyone who thinks their speaker is low.

Meltus Audio Hack.
Your welcome.

My G1 speaker is terrible!
The other end hears constant echo, and it's very soft for me to hear anything.

How to increase SMS notification volume without raising the system volume?

Is it possible to get the SMS tone louder without raising the system volume in general?

Sure. You should import the .wav file that corresponds to the mentioned alert in your PC to a wave editor and normalize it. If it is already normalized you should try to apply multiband compression to it and tweak the compression ratio of the frequencies that match the characteristics of your devices loudspeaker

Ok let me rephrase. Can i have my SMS tone like 100% Volume and the rest of the System Volume at 10%?

Yes. Still the same answer... shortly - you have to change the volume individually for each file by opening those files in an audio editor - the sms one louder and if it is already 100% then you need to make other ones softer. I am talking about the internal volume of the files. All the audio is played through the same wave device which is affected by a single system volume slider so there is surely no way to autoroute "recalled" wavs to a virtual buses with individual volume sliders. Maybe in the future... but this is more like in a pro audio playground already, I dont think this kind of consumer devices would ever support such a specific ground.

No its not a solution to reduce the volume of all system sounds and sounds of the applications, midis and whatever they use.
I think Photo Contacs Pro can do that...but i cant switch the phone silent with the regular volume control anymore...wich is something i like.

[Q] volume issue dell venue pro

so i have this great phone, i love wp7, it has thing's that i don't like but well nothing is perfect.. but what i really, let's say, hate is when i receive a phone call the volume is really low :S i have the phone wit the volume o maximun (30), the music sounds great, really loud but the phone call and even the alarm sound really really low, how can i fix that?

Phone call volume is controlled separately from everything else. While in a call, hit Volume Up and put it at max (the scale is different: in a call, it goes 1-10 instead of the normal 0-30).
If that's still not loud enough, I'm not sure what to expect. You could try using earbuds or a headset. On my HD7, I have to set call volume down to 5 when using earbuds or it's painfully loud. Bluetooth headsets often have their own volume control too, and can push the call higher if the phone doesn't go high enough.
There are some registry controls that affect volume, but I don't think anybody had managed to get any write access to the DVP registry yet.

thanks for the answer man, but i think i don't explain myself very well xD i'm talking about the ringtone from when you're getting a phone call you know? That's the volumen i'm talking about that it is kinda low, and is the same with the alarms..i hope you can understand me now haha..and i have another question since you answer my previews one you know a way or and app to change the colors of the live tiles? Because the colors that came with the OS are, let's say, short haha

Ah... yeah, I really wish I could set the ringer volume independently of the music-and-so-forth volume. BTW, alarms will always (by design) start at low volume, then get louder over the course of about a minute. I tend to set the base volume high before going to bed anyhow, but I've forgotten to a couple of times and it still wakes me up within a very short time.
Adding custom accent colors is another thing that requires registry access. In theory, there's a registry editor built into the EM app. So far as I know, nobody has gotten it to work, though. It's a real pity, that is; with a built-in regedit, the phone could easily be dev- and interop-unlocked, opening up a lot of homebrew potential.

that's too bad :s well i guess i have to live with that. The same thing happen to me with the alarms haha so i guess i have to live with that too xD
I'm starting to hate wp7 -.- i think an iphone has less limitation than wp . I'm going to use this phone for a while but in the end i'm sure i will get back on android, or maybe i will use both phone, i don't know.
Thank's for the reply that solve my doubt's

[Q] Low in-call volume

Hi,
I'm new to the HTC 7 Pro, I only have the phone for a week. I like it but I have an annoying problem with it: the in-call volume is too low. It's OK for the Office/Home environment, but it's barely audible in a crowd... Of course the in call volume is set to the max and I tried the registry settings to increase it to 15 but it only changed the volume steps, not the volume level...
Any idea to fix it? Can I fix it by flashing different/older radio firware?
TIA!

Half jokingly I came up with the same idea But I haven't tried it. I'll try to take the phone apart and clean the speakers but I have to collect some braveness first...

I wish I had that problem. The ear speakers are a bit loud for me. what's worse is at minimum volume, it's impossible to hold a conversation through headphones; Its so freaking LOUD!!
