I think it's loud, but I'm coming from a Nexus One, and I've been informed the N1 is one of the phones with the lowest volume.
Good. Not great.

Coming from both Vibrants I would say its loud but not as loud as it should be.
I feel the vibrants are very loud. Especially when holding in your hand watching a movie because it will echo off your hand. I've always had to turn down the vibrants while I find myself wishing this phone could go louder.

Better than the G2 through the earpiece and speakers. I think the speaker placement helps. A lot better than the G2 through a wired or Bluetooth headset.
Sounds great when dts is pressed from within the audio or video player. If I didn't know about that from this forum I wouldn't have thought it was that good.

Coming from nexus s and would say ok, not as loud as nexus s. I had voodoo sound on nexus which was quite an improvement. May be we will see some improvements here once some custom kernels roll out.

The speaker volume is ok I guess for a mono speaker, but the headphone volume is to low. Probably they're following that headphone volume law from europe. There is a volume booster app in the market

Coming from an iPhone, I'm very impressed with the speaker phone volume.
Sound is really good, I missed the placement of the speaker being on the bottom of the phone.

Don't know how crazy loud you like your music but I can't turn the volume up all the way on my atrix without hurting my ears and I also love to blast my music.

It's not that loud. Comparing it with nexus s and galaxy s running voodoo sound ...after using ns atrix sounds feels low..don't have that punch I like. But at least is better than most phones.

What kind of headphones are you using cause if I put it all the way up it hurts
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
haha i like ym music blaring so loud everyone else can hear it haha.... and the atrix jsut does not do that... i know my iphone 4 the volume was very very loud, and throw in the normalization tweak in itunes, songs where blasting and throw in good headphones and now your talking..... idk it just does not seem loud enough... i remember back in my HTC touch pro and htc touch HD days, there were apps that changed the volume etc, and even the iphone 4 had mods to change the volume... so hell im sure out device can prolly have something in the same sort!
and PS. the mod that moved this thread, you moved it into the worng phone bro... this is the atrix im talking bout not the inspire.
Running stock 2.3.3. Even with call volume maxed out I can barely hear the person on the other end. I have tried with multiple calls to multiple people and get the same thing.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Anyone experienced something similar?

i have that problem, i tend to use speaker more. hopefully a mod comes soon
I'm running CM7 RC1 with Voodoo kernel, not sure if the Voodoo sound patch has any part in this, but the volume on my phone is quite loud when using Skype. But in a noisy environment, I'd rather use a pair of noise blocking earphone or headset.
Yea i can barely hear the other person as well. I dont know if its just in my head but it almost seems like it started after the 2.3.3 update

During a call turn the volume down and then back up. When you turn it down you won't notice much difference but you will when you turn it up again. It seems that the volume settings thinks it's at max when it isn't and you need to reset it by turning it down.
Hmm ill give that a shot

Don't think so. The same issue was present with the N1, kernel developers implemented an audio boost feature that really helped this issue out. Hopefully we will see the same for the NS soon enough.
I would LOOOOOVE for an audio boost similar to the N1 to be implemented for the NS.

[Q] volume of the front speakers? Help please
hello all
does anyone know the phonecodes for the nexus s (service mode)? I want to increase the handset (speaker to the ear)!
in the galaxy s, he is **#*#197328640#*# but not work
nexus s CM7 netarchy 1.2.7
sorry for my bad english
does anybody know how to raise the volume of the front speakers?
I'd like to do this also. Default max volume is too low, sometimes hard to hear what people say.
exactly!
It must be possible to increase the volume
with the voodoo kernel only the speakers on the back work
I have the same problems, in call volume is too low :-( and its not the provider because with my Galaxy S the volume is okay.
Phone speaker is quiet but with my bt earpiece I can get it loud enough to hurt my ears.
Sent from my MattedBlues CM7 Nexus S from the XDA Premium app.
i don't know about you guys, but i have no problem hearing the call even in busy ( noisy ) streets environments.
using any of the 3 methods:
normal ear speaker
back speaker
BT headset
on 2.3.3 stock, no mods of any kind
temporarily solution:
During call set volume to min and then to max and then it's OK. After reboot problem is back.

Only volume probs I come across 2.3.0-2.3.3 has been the other person's provider (att, Boost, Metro) so far.
Just wanted to check if it's just me or are there other forum members also experiencing the similar issue of speakers just not being loud enough???

Have you enabled dts feature when using the stock music player? Also it depends if the audio file volume was upped correctly when it was mixed. It plays real loud for me even when dts is not activated. Also think about ambient noise in the background when you are playing music

for me it's speaker, not speakers... I can only hear sound coming out of one speaker... I guess the other one is the mic... and yes I can barely hear mine too
Thanks Dude. Got it. It was the DTS function that was off.

ok
just got the 32gig card today putting mucis on it now but that wont help videos . but if it helps on this it can be made to work on video player or get teh programs off a slate dump since i guess tehy left teh apps off the g2x.
So if one of the speakers not working, then is it a defective unit? Only my right one works and the left one doesn't.
Left one is a microphone. Wow too many people are wondering about this.

Is the speaker volume VERY low or is it just my phone? I have youtube videos turned all the way up, notifications turned all the way up, etc., and it's still not that loud.

Good to know it's not just my phone then. I can live with it.
Me too. I was thinking out was just my phone.
There is already a post about this FYI.....Go to: Settings>Call>Enable "Hearing Aids"
This will help tremendously. Enjoy.
at even the highest setting, its low on my phone. but what i've found out is that the speaker is capable of a very loud sound, but is locked by the software for the highest it can go. what i am talking about is , like for google navigation, turn the volume to the highest setting, and you can see that voice guidance is extremely loud. but for all other things on the phone, its low. so a custom rom would have to increase this setting for everything to be loud, not just voice guidance on google navigation.
It's definitely not a good speaker, but check out an app called Equalizer to boost your levels.
Try volume+ from the market.
I've not got a sensation but I have increased the volume of my lg o2x hugely.

So strange you are all claiming speaker quality is bad. Mine it's great. Very loud and clear/crisp.. Music, videos, calls. Everything. Especially with the SRS enhancement checked.

SRS is great on the HTC apps but doesn't affect Sirius or other media apps.
Well even my youtube videos and speaker phone conversations are loud and crisp on the speaker. No problems with low volume here.

For listening to music on my bt headset I use the equalizer in poweramp to boost the volume, works well for me. For voice calls I find the volume and sound quality to be amazing.

I have nothing about enabling hearing aids, or is this just a joke?
Id like to know why my phones speaker is louder than when I plug external speakers in. This isn't too clever seen as the volume also seens very low on mine. :/
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App
Hi, yes equalizer seems to help with the speaker by cranking everything up. Still nothing like the results you can get from volume plus.
On the plus side the speaker seems to be better than previous htc devices. I have always been put off by the poor speaker. Motorola speakers I have to have below max!
I will email volume+ developer and see if he or she will update.

Yes, it currently doesn't work on the Sensation and I'm not entirely sure why. I'm currently looking into why it force closes and will then release a bug fix.

On the contrary i need one to lower the volume, because my in-call and speaker volumes are way too loud.

I'd much rather have the headphone jack output volume increased by 3dB
Speaker volume being too loud is okay. But not the in call volume, because even when I turn down the volume all the way down people close to my proximity can hear everything.
So its more of a privacy issue for me rather than an inconvenience.
