Setup a Volume during a Call
What type of ROM do you have now?
Depending to your software, I can try to help you...
Do you try to setup volume values in
Settings -> Sound -> Volume ???
and during a call you can try to PUSH the buttons on the right side of cellphone UP and DOWN controls is used to increase/decrease volume...
try this and tell me...
I have tried all sound setting on the phone im running Cronos Ginger X 1.7.0.
Try to test another rom...
Try to put another ROM like as Bravo 1.9...
Cronos does not have more updates... (I used for a few days...)
I test every roms of this forum for XT720 and the bravo does not have very much problems with the phone...
I don't think its the rom this has carried over to every rom i have tried. Stock, cyanogenmod 6.3. I just flashed over to 7.2. Is there a way to increase past where its set now? Speaker might be bad not sure.

Hi
Does anyone know if there's a way to further reduce the in-call volume on the Desire S?
Even at it's lowest setting I often find the volume in a call to be a little too loud for me.
Anyone know of an app to do this or some way to tweak the phone?
My DS is unrooted on stock 2.3.5 (sadly).
Thanks in advance.

I doubt this would be possible unless you replaced your kernel, even then I doubt any have this feature! Let me know if you do find a way, however!
And I would like to know how to raise max in call volume ?

That doesn't sound right. (Honestly no pun intended there. ) I seem to remember my stock ROM would go down to inaudible levels.
What could be happening, which I have encountered before, is the phone's G-Sensor calibration is shot, so the phone thinks it's always face down, and hence answers all call in loud speaker mode. This would be very loud held to your head!
Try going into: Settings> Sound> and deactivate 'flip for speaker' or something similar to that. (Sorry I'm not running a Sense ROM right now so can't remember the exact phrasing.)
If this drops volume levels back to comfortable levels then re-calibrate your G-Sensor, or leave the 'flip for speaker' setting off.
If not, and you have super-human hearing, the only other options would be;
Rooting the phone and using a custom kernel with volume tweaks
Using earphones with an in-line volume slider.
Stuffing cheese in your ears.
Any 3rd party apps will simply tap into the existing volume controls so I doubt they'll be of any help. You could give Audio Manager a go though....

really? lol, mine is sometimes too soft on max volume n loud areas
Mine is definitely too quiet. I had a T-Mobile branded one but currently runing Endymion on it. I red somewhere on the forum that many T-Mobile branded devices has low max volume settings but I though that custom kernel will solve the problem.
I LOVE this Rom and its my daily driver. But I have one problem. It's TOO loud for my liking. So what I'm asking is there any way to lower the system volume altogether so it won't be as loud? Thanks guys
Are you having issues with your settings > sound > Volume? What does it do when you change the volume? I haven't had volume issues since we were in the double digit revisions..
I mean the overall volumeseems very loud no matter what setting it is on. I've never had this problem with any other rom

That's due to the newly added Bravia engine in the latest release.
Most users have always complained the max volume was too low, well that is no more.
At this time, there is no method of changing that, other then reverting back to r230 if you prefer the lower volume.
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind.
Hi,
I've been trying to get a handle on this. . . My in call volume is pretty low at its maximum setting. I can hear well enough so long as there isn't much ambient noise, but if I'm out on the street (NYC) it's extremely difficult to hear the person I'm talking to.
I've seen some posts about Volume+ having in call volume settings, but I haven't been able to find anything useful, just a way to change the volume steps under the root options.
So, my question is this:
Is there any means whatsoever to boost my in call volume? I'm currently running ViperXL 1.2.1. Would a different kernel offer any remedy?
Thanks,
Chris
Did this happen on stock rom?
In my experience having owned a HTC Diamond, HTC Desire, and now the One X, HTC has terrible in call volume.

try to wipe cache and dalvik in recovery and reboot. Volume + is very useful and works great on the hox, i work mostly outdoors and find it indispensable
I haven't gone back to stock yet.
Speaking of which. . . . If I flash the 1.85 stock ROM, I shouldn't lose root or anything correct? Right now I've got root and an unlocked bootloader.
Also, I can't for the life of me find any settings to boost the in call volume in Volume+. All of the setting just seem to apply to the external speaker, headphones or bluetooth. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Chris

when you open volume + under the sound settings menu it has an in-call settings menu but you need root. why would you flash the stock 1.85 if you just came from 2.20 ?

I just reckoned I'd go back to the version that my phone shipped with. Doesn't really matter I suppose.
I don't see any option in Volume+ that pertains to in call setting other than Sound Settings->Root Tools->In-Call Step Options.
I'm going check out the stock ROM tonight hopefully.
Is there an app or other software to boost the volume? All my volume settings are maxed and i cant really hear the caller. Sometimes, though, it comes in just fine, but most of the time it doesnt.
Thanks

I had this problem with another phone and after an extensive search, I ultimately gave up on it. I will share what I tried and maybe save you a little trouble.
First and simplest, try gently cleaning out the earpiece with a little toothpick, a pin, or better yet blow it out with some air. This seems to work for some people, as overtime gunk can build up inside the screen.
Next, there are a lot of apps that claim to work as volume boosters. Most of them are for speaker volume and not for in-call volume. After sifting through many of them I found one or two that claimed to help in call volume but they really did not work. If you go this route then "happy hunting".
Some ROMs have a hearing aid setting under the Accessibility options but I couldn't tell you which. The ROM I'm using has ways to change the volume steps for all volume settings and that might help (I'm using Liquid Smooth found here in the DEV section).
There is an Xposed module that enables you to adjust some volume steps.
Viper for Android gives you a lot of control over the sound of the device (it has Xloud) and it works well with the Apollo Music Player found on many ROMs but I can't say for sure it helps in-call volume. It sure makes music sound good though.
Last and hardest, if you are rooted and have a file managing app, you can go into the system files and edit them. This would probably require the assistance of a dev who could tell you exactly where these file are located and what the correct settings should be. Of course, there is always a chance of damaging your phone this way.
That's all I know. Hopefully, one of these options will work for you, or someone wiser will jumped in with a better solution. Good luck!
You need to tell everyone what software you are using and how long you have been having a problem.
