[Q] Low Speaker volume w/Modem Switch Galaxy Tab - General Questions and Answers

(sorry this is a repost since the first thread was not in the right forum)
Hi
As you can tell I am new here. In fact I am new to Flashing/ROMing/etc...
Yet last night i read over quite a bit of stuff and this morning I did the following:
1) flashed my Galaxy Tab (t-mobile) to the Euro firm. Got the phone working. Speaker Volume was good, and I could make calls and hear the other side quite clearly.
Then I got a little brave...
2) I successfully installed the latest OVERCOME ROM, everything seems to be working fine.
3) I followed ROTO's modem switch and got that working.
Now my problem is speaker volume has changed dramatically (while using the Phone ONLY). I can barely hear the other side. This is in comparison to when I first flashed it to the Euro firm.
Is there something that I missed? is there some type of setting that controls the phone in-call volume (internally)?
UPDATE: I was playing with the volume while on a call, and it seems at 75% is the loudest, then as you increase it beyond that, the actual volume gets lowered dramatically.
Pls advise.
Thank you in advance
Note: and YES I had the in-call volume all the way up.

Help needed please :) - SOLVED

Hi all,
Yesterday I have upgraded my father’s HTC touch pro, for the latest official ROM (it had the one that it came with which was 1 year older then the latest release).
I now have 2 problems that my father is complaining about. He works in noise sensitive places and he needs to turn off as many sounds as possible.
There are 2 sounds I was not able so far to turn off.
The sound when the Phone turns ON (the shot HTC symbol sing and sound, when you turn on the phone)
And the sound of increasing and decreasing the volume (when you use the side volume keys, it beeps once every time you increase or decrease the sound).
Please help me turn them off.
THANK YOU ALL FOR HELP.
PS: After some more research we were able to find the solution to the sounds, and disable them in windows.

[Q] Inconsistent Volume Issues

I am almost positive this question has been asked before, but alas...
For reasons unknown, my Nexus S seems to have inconsistent volume levels.
1. Regardless of how loud the volume is set to, the "operation" sound effects are ALWAYS at bare-audible levels. For example, when the screen is turned off it's almost impossible to hear the noise. This holds true even when the system volume is at maximum.
2. In call volume is always low, and yet the speakerphone volume is always SUPER loud.
The posts I've read before always seem to mention it being a problem with the Nexus S phone itself, but how is that possible? If the sound comes out then the sound comes out. It would seem to me like a problem with Gingerbread.
i use this to keep my volumes set properly

WOW thanks for that link. It solved the problem immediately. I'm not exactly sure what the issue is with the actual Gingerbread software though...why don't the volume levels adjust properly?
Also, I saw your post in another topic and found your signature (image) to be quite fascinating. I too have used many of those phones actually.
On a side note, can you (or anyone) explain why my topic was moved from the Nexus S board?
yeah i recently learned about audio widget, and it seems to be able to seperate out different system level audio vs call audio etc. not sure why this isnt available in stock android, but this app is able to do it. so its a must have.

In-call Volume problem with cm-10 - Really eed help!

I installed an unofficial version of cm 10 that was linked by someone here in one of the forums, named "cm-10-20120816-d2vzw.zip", other than NFC (which I don't care about), everything works, even mms, I have cwm 6.0.1.2, and aosp kernel, so no kernel required. It runs VERY smooth, I've been using it instead of TW for a few days now, and happy with it. Anyway, when I get calls, every time, the in-call volume shows low, but it's at its loudest possible, I have to click higher, then lower to get it under control. I have installed volume+, but that doesn't really seem to have any effect on any volume anyway, but regardless, this resets on EVERY call, I don't think volume+ would cause that. It resets again for the next call even if I lower it of the previous calls. Does anyone know a fix? Any way to get the in call volume setting to stick? All other volume settings are remembered, why not this? It's so out someone walking by 50 ft away could hear the phone (not speakerphone) clearly. Really need help with this!
Any suggestions would be welcome.

[Q] Sound problems in my moto G

Hello all,
First of all, I am no native english speaker so excuse my english, I'll do my best so you can undertand.
Second, I've tried to find a post or any help before posting, but I did not reset my phone.
Well, I will try to explain whats going on with my moto g:
A couple weeks ago, suddenly, I was making a call and the sound was going on and off, with no apparent reason. I thought it was my or the other person network.
After that, I guess that same afternoon, I noticed the speaker wasn't working when playin a video or any sound.
Since then it's always the same, the speaker sometimes works, sometimes not. When playing a video or sound, if the speaker is not working I shake or hit (with care hehe) the phone and it gets to work, but usually stops again soon. Usually there is no sound when receivin a notification, when receiving a call it works at first at least. When the alarm sounds, its pretty strange: looks like it would be trying to sound, and quickly decrease the volume, I dont know how to explain it, but I can not rely on the phone alarm.
Another strange thing, is that when I volume up or down, sometimes it changes the volume of the ring (volume when receiving a call or notfication, dont know how to explain it in english), and sometimes what seems to be the media volume (multimedia), but that is actually not the media volume because its in a different level than the one when I change the volume level when playing a video or media. I dont know how to explain it better...
I haven't tried with headphones. I did wipe cache and dalvik cache. I'm on android 4.4.4, using Dalvik. rooted and bootloader unlocked. Xposed, gravitybox, minminguard and motoguide installed.
I don't know what else can I tell you...if there is anything I can do let me know.
Thank you
If just poking or shaking the phone makes the speaker works means that some contact it's not sodered correctly so just take it to the service center and it will be repaired

Loss of "speaker" output

Everybody,
So I've had my OPO for a while, but I've noticed a few times that after being booted for a period of time (several days to a week), the speaker output seems to go silent. This means that when I use the volume control, it no longer sounds as I move it higher or lower, phone ringing is mute, etc. If I plug in a headset, I can hear everything fine there. Upon a reboot, it goes back to normal however.
Has anybody else noticed this behavior?
I am on CM 11.0-XNPH38R, although I believe I observed this at least once on the previous build. It "feels" like it is getting stuck in headphone output mode.
Any help or supporting observations if this is a general problem, or something specific to my unit would be helpful. Thanks!
