Speaker Not Loud Enough

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???

my one is screaming

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.

Best way to try it - call your voicemail, and put it on loudspeaker .... mine is loud like a mother cracker

Only the right bottom speaker on mine and 3 other test units seem to be working called my LG Rep and his is the same but its supposed to have stereo speakers as per lg

how to turn on dts
I love this phone but am also having problems with it being to quiet. i saw this post about turning on dts i cant find any option for this anywhere. not in stock music player not in settings where and how do i do this. if i cant make this speaker louder i will have to return it.

Mine's running great. Speaker is quite a bit louder than my old Nexus one. Compare it to some others if you can.

When you are playing music in the stock music player. Go to the song currently playing and you'll see dts function

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.

Volume+ App?

Do any of you guys use this? The low speaker is started to frustrate me like crazy. Can barely hear calls on speakerphone even when all the way up, and I have to turn the volume all the way up to even be able to hear youtube videos and sounds in games. It's pathetic. Will the volume+ app fix this? And what setting do you use? I'm just looking for it to be a little louder and not blow the speaker.

People do use it.
There's also Equalizer in the Market which is what I use.

It does give the speaker and headphones a boost. FC's on me 3 times a day for no apparent reason, though...

[Q] HTC explorer Sound Problem

Hi everyone
I am facing a problem with my htc explorer. In the music player a hissing sound is coming when i paused the music it can be heared and after about 6 seconds the hissing sound disappears.
Is it normal or my set is faulty?? though the hissing sound is faint and can only be heared in complete silence.

Does it only happen on the music player, or when any sound is played?
My old phone, the Cliq had the same problem when playing any sounds and I got really annoyed. When it started happening I decided it was a problem with the speaker itself (hardware).
Sent from my MB508 using xda premium

it happens when ever any sound is being played. it can also be noticed in the head phone .

That's very strange, if it occurs in the headphones too then it must be a software problem.
I would recommend contacting HTC. Sorry if I wasnt much help, I have never heard of this before

thank you gagdude . i have already got a replacement for a screen issue now the new set has this sound problem. Tomorrow will check another explorer of my friend.

Headphones always turned on

Hello, yesterday i wanted to make a small speaker for my phone, so i connected the phone to the speaker trough a jack and blah blah.. then it was not so loud so i tried to add 9V ac to the speaker.. big mistake, my phone turned off, i turned it on right away and even when i disconnect my headphones they still show like they are in. No youtube sound, no music and no sound when someone calls me. What could i do? Please help me..
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app

Seems like you might have blown off the sound amp section of your phone, by injecting that 9V ac power
A trip to the LG Service Center for you I guess !!!

But the speaker works! When i press volume + the speaker produces that sound of volume, the speaker works well but the phone sends the audio to the wrong place, any ideas without having to go to the LG servis? Im a bit poor this time..

Try opening the phone n check for any damage/burn part. Or try speaker cleaner app from gplay

But the phone speaker works! It isnt broken or something, i just need to find a way to disconnect headphones, because they show they are always connected, even if they arent. The speaker is working because when i press vol + and vol - it produces a sound. Is there an app to disconnect manually the headphones!

If you have any pair of headphones plug them into jack and reboot the phone and unplug them at lg logo
Maybe will deactivate the headphones profile for me this method worked on icysnap v1.1 (I had a similar bug with headphones)

Hi! I got a similar problem thanx yours, my headphones also shows that are connected all the time, and I think it's software related because whan I flash a PAC-man rom te sound of the headphones hears in the speaker. Have you tried a restore vía KDZ? Maybe that fix the problem (I can't tried yet because of lack ofrece time)

Try this it switches between headphone and speakers

It's look like that app aren't compatible with the p500 but there are some similar apps, for example I installed one called "toggle headset 2" and it works!!!

No Sound AT ALL cm 11 nightly

Hello!
Ive been having a very very unusual problem to where my phone (sgh -727) has no output sound at all! But sometimes suddenly speaks, thus telling the that the speaker works fine! Even after the phone's audio output works it is often stopped once again by making a phone call or listening to something! This has been happening for about 4 weeks now.
My skyrocket has no sound during:
Phone calls
Youtube or Songs on the phone
Alarms
Ringing
Dial tone sounds
No sound through headphones either
I am not sure if my phone is vibrating or not due a faulty vibrator.
Thank you soo much for all of your help! Hope I can get this problem fixed! :cyclops:

I also have a similar problem after changing the USB Port.But in my case vibrator works. In 'speaker mode' no sound and 'Ringer' is dead completely
