Has anyone or is there anything we can do to help boost this poor speaker volume on the inspire...is there some kind of speaker booster that works...thanks in advanced...

I would like to know as well. I can barely hear my phone ringing.

I fixed mine by exchanging for an Atrix. The sound quality and levels are very, very good.

Lol ok me too but rather not get the Atrix just for sound. I Like this phone too much and everything is working great but the sound level. Would like to keep it virgin for awhile and not root or flash yet. but of course thats not too far away.

ha ha I see what you mean. I really loved the Inspire, but the few things that bothered me about it in everyday use seem to be rectified by the Atrix. Besides, I won an Inspire at work so I'll have both

This doesn't really help. Considering I prefer the Inspire to the Atrix. I'm not a huge fan of Motorola.
I am pretty sure it is a software issue though. Games are fairly loud when I play them, and it just seem seems like alerts and ringtones are lacking.

You could always make copies of the ringtones, run them thru a MP3 editing software to boost the Db level of the source file, then put them back to the phone.

Someone should he able to incorporate DSP manager bow that kernels can be cooked. That will make a difference for sure.

So I'll need root, and just have to wait until they update the dsp app on market?

I won't be returning mine. Battery, sound and speed are too good.

Run Gingerbread? Need a louder speaker? Use this application.

Volume+ Sound Boost for Gingerbread
Download: Here
Credits: MeltusI've tested it and it's increased the speaker volume drastically without reducing sound quality. It's great for streaming music, radio, live scanner feeds and stuff. It makes the loudspeaker LOUD. Works on my custom ROM (See it in my signature). ​

Thank you so much!!!!!

Thanks! Will give it a shot.

Warning! Don't have it set at insane or 8 at all time you will blow your speakers

Thanks, I just thought it was the phone, had no idea it was the ROM I was running lol. This app works great, using it at one notch below Insane, and it sounds much better now

Thanks. Works great

awesome, thanks.

Yeah, I haven't tested it on Insane, and probably won't. It's plenty loud enough as is now lol

I tried it on insane it will work loud but if you keep it on insane you will blow your speakers

BETA Version (1.61 whatever)
Speaker Phone:
Speaker Modifications: ON
EQ Settings: GOOD QUALITY
Volume Level: FIVE OR SIX
Bass Enhance: OFF

i ran it on cm7 made NO difference at all ... not a tinny bit :S

Works on CM7 here, stock kernel.
Just a question for you guys: have you come across a volume/equalizer app that works on a speakerphone call? I've gotten Volume+ and DSP Manager to work on everything except for when the phone is in speakerphone mode. I was hoping to reduce the "tinnyness" of callers with a treble reduction and midrange boost.

Can something similar be done with the headphone jack? I use it often to connect to my car stereo and even at max volume it's not very loud.

Well it seems to have solved MY problem, which was low volume on the ringtones - I was missing calls, with the phone in my pocket - beyond that, I didn't fiddle around with the settings.
Thanks much!
-Mike

should we restart after applying settings? i rely find no difference at all . som1 can explain me why?

CM7 has DSP Manager which will boost volume perfectly.

[musicplayer] neutron player

Hi guys, any audiophiles here like me?
This music player has terrible interface. Basic functions doesn't work too well. BUT!!!
OMG the sound quality of this player is mind blowing. I really mean it. SGS and voodoo is known for it's SQ. However, despite it sounds clear, the sounds is not precise and out of place by an inch. Was a voodoo + equalizer app + poweramp fan and still am cuz of interface but i can forsee an android music player to better poweramp! Assuming this music player gets developed nicely. Give it a try guys and if you like the SQ, show dev some support just by rating etc.

Type neutron in search and it will come up.

I checked this out last week, but just couldn't stand the UI and layout of it... If it had more polish and a neater/more attractive UI I would use it.

does indeed sound good but I feel Power Amp sounds just as good as it. both these sound better than Winamp and Ttpod but jt is just so ugly and unresponsivd too. button presses most times dont work, setting up a playlist on first start sucks as it just does not acction button presses and if you minimise program then go back to it it changes song automatically. good sound quality though, sorry,only positive i can think of. using Xperia MiUi 2.2.1

I suppose sound is very subjective and also depends on the headphones you use as well the phone you use. On SGS, neutron definitely widens soundstage with better sound separation whilst keeping the sound crisp and clear. Sure poweramp is clear but the sound is everywhere. Also with that filtering of highest frequency on neutron, the sound feels very calm to listen to as well as having the "fun" sound from general boost the app gives to SQ.
However as you said and as i said on OP sq is the only pro atm but any audiophiles would (or should ) use it just for that reason like i do

will give this another try i guess, was happy with the sound, using earphones that came with my old Sony. Ericsson w980, very strong sound from them. sound is great from the player but to purchase would be nice to know there is refinement of the ui planned. cheers

Another "good sound, bad UI" app is Rockbox. It has not been announced as "useable" yet, but many reports that it works fine. And I think it has more sound tweaking features than Neutron. It would be interesting to hear an audiophiles comparison between these two.

That UI needs to be sorted seriously... sadly i have no idea whether the dev is looking for ui update.

[APP] [ROOT] Beats Audio Installer

I wouldn't be sharing this if I didn't think that it was helpful, so please look into this.
There is an app on the play store called [ROOT] Beats Audio Installer. It is made by motioncoding, so all the credit and thanks should go to them. What this app does is that it installs the beats audio drivers to any android phone, as long as the phone is rooted. It is advised that one makes a backup of their data (nandroid and titanium will suffice), because once you install this app and run it to install beats audio, you can't uninstall this. The only thing you can do is factory reset. I have used this app and it worked for me. My music quality is substantially better. YOU DO NOT NEED BEATS HEADPHONES FOR THIS APP TO RUN. I do not know if this app will give you beats audio quality sound if you use youtube, pandora, or spotify. I believe that it shall, if you use headphones to listen to your media, because a "beats audio" notification appears every time you use headphones. I do not know if a lot of people know about this, but I just wanted to share this app, because I believe it is great. The link is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motioncoding.beats&hl=en
There is also a mod that you guys can try. You need to have DSP Manager for this to work, but you can try to see how it works without it. Remember, i am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. The flashable zip is linked.
If you have any questions, please comment. Remember, thank motioncoding...and you can press the "thanks" button if i have helped you

This is pretty cool. They say they use Rockodev's beats mod, but having this app to do it for you is nice. (Also having the notification is sick!)
I find the first review funny, he says "the app works without root, notification appears, but please actually make the sound quality better" lol he doesn't realize...

Yeah, I came across this while looking for a beats audio zip file on my 4.1.1. rom for my droid incredible. Oh dear...poor him lol.

dont do unrooted
if you do unrooted it has a chance of screwing up your phone if it is one of the newer versions. even though the app says "continue without root" . trust me. dont.

There was a debate about this around a while back on whether it is a placebo effect right?

Screen record with audio?

Okay so I looked all over xda, play store, xposed downloaded , Mahdi customization and pimp my ROM. I can't find anything that allows audio for screen recordings. I got this really cool megaman thing going on with my n5. Wallpapers and colors and sounds. I wanted to record it with the sound on. Any pointers?

I noticed it was recording via microphone so maybe it will capture the audio you want. Just dont sneeze cause you'll have to start again

That ^^ and I do know that ROM's have incorporated Audio Recording with Screen Recording. The original commit was made for ChameleonOS so they definitely have it. Other ROM's have it built in as well. As for which ones, you will have to do some research

I'll try the app. I'm currently running Mahdi. Good stuff. I'll read up on the Dev pages. Hope I find it baked in if the app doesn't work.

Or you can just plug a line in from phone to PC and record the audio then mix together.
That's how i usually do it.
This is an old video from my HTC one x.
I had to use a video recorder for the video because there want any way to record android video on the tegra3 soc at the time but I just used the headphone Jack to line in on pc to record and then mix together and you get something like this.
