I used to have a .cab called Audio-Boost, but it does not work on my current ROM, a warning don't even try it....so....what registry handles the headset volume. Before the "Manila-based" ROMs, I used to use the Audio-Boost and it would put the volume at the perfect level (ie, when I Fly I could hear the audio fine, before.....too low). I do have the HTC Audio Booster, not loud enough, and WOW screws up my phone.
Cheers.

Might not be exactly what you are looking for, but many freeware media players have an adjustable preamp setting which might help you hear in the airplane. Mortplayer and TCPMP for example have this option.
I have an adapter with microphone that allows any headset to be used for calls and music control, with iPhone. Tried to use it with Inspire 4G and got no sound whatsoever (regular headphones work fine, but of course, no mic or music control then). Pictures of HTC headset with mic show similar 3 ring insert, but something must be slightly different. Has anyone successfully used a microphone headset specifically for Inspire 4G, and/or an adapter that will function with any set of headphones?
I have 1 with an inline mic.
However the sound quality when I plug it in is HORRIBLE compared to just headphones.
Dont know why.
Have tested this with 2 inline mics.
I'm using a Monster iBeats in ear set with my 4G. Sound quality is great for music, very good for phone.
My inline mic will pause music but the volume does not work for music.
For phone calls, I can mute, unmute and answer, but volume control does not work.
This set on my wifes iPhone the volume control works for both music and phone and also allows you to forward itunes tracks.
I just use the volume control on the side of the phone on the Inspire with this headset.

DO you notice a difference when using Mic and headphones as opposed to just headphones?
I am noticing a difference even when using my Shure headphones.
What rom/kernal are u using?

I do not notice any difference in sound quality whether I use the Mic or not.
I'm running Rooted Stock ROM with bloat removed.
There is an app called Headset Button Controller
Just installed it and I can adjust the volume, move forward and back in music tracks and also turn volume up and down with this app installed in media apps.
Interestingly it only uses the center button to do all this on a three button headset.
In phone mode center button ends call. So it does not change anything compared to not running it.
I'll run it and see how I like it, initial impressions are it fixes what doesn't work native with the headset in media mode.

Wow.
Im starting to wonder if there is something wrong with my phone now
I THINK what is happening is that when I connect my mic it switches from Stereo to Mono. Duno tho.

I have purchased this app and will say that it is great. I use the same headset that I use to use with my ipod but now I find it easier to use. I use my phone while riding the motorcycle and I feel like.I have greater control over the music now..only problem I am having is people can't hear me through the Mic on the headset. Any ideas. No it didn't work before I had the software.

We now know the G2X has only one media speaker, and I was a bit bothered watching videos and the sound comes from only one side. Maybe I am just expecting too much from a phone, but I was wondering if it was possible to make use of the speaker (the one you use for regular phone calls) to create a stereo effect to a listener directly in front of the phone.
I am aware this speaker can't output as high a volume as the media speaker on the bottom of the phone. Is it possible to have this speaker output at a volume such that the media speaker match it in a relatively similar volume so that the listener directly in front of the screen can hear stereo sound? That is if it is even possible to route the sound to output from both speakers at the same time.
If possible, maybe someone with the experiences can add this feature into a custom firmware?
At work, we have a central speaker that broadcasts music to the lobby. Often, I or someone else in the office will broadcast music and from what I've noticed, there is a major difference in the way Bluetooth works on different platforms, as to be expected, but call me crazy, I remember Android being able to control the volume of the speaker as well, and it wasn't such a disconnect, or I'm actually crazy.
Apple links the volume controls of the speaker AND itself, if you turn it down, the speaker will follow, and vice versa, though on Android, I find myself having to get up and manually turn the speaker up or down and adjust my phones volume accordingly.
Now, I'm not saying one is particularly a better way to handle volume, as it's useful to divide channels up (and so far multiple Bluetooth devices connected at once on Android is like a dream).
My question is:
Is there a way to control speaker volume from Android?
Anyone know of a way to disable auto mic level adjustment on Android? I use my phone as a guitar amp and use an iRig to connect the guitar to my phone. However, I notice that when I play with little volume, it sounds okay, but if I start playing loudly it'll just lower the volume like it has some noise gate. I also tried this while recording with my headphones' mic and it has the same effect. What can I do?
