Low volume during calls - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Does any one have very low volumes during calls ? I have set the incall volume to max and also rebooted a couple of times ... but I still feel the volume is pretty low ..

Yep. I made a thread about this. Most calls are ok. Some aren't loud enough.

Sometimes I have noticed if you hit the volume up button sometimes it won't change volume lvl. But if I hit the volume down first then up it helps. Kinda weird bug if you ask me

The thinner they make these phones these days the worse the speakers seem to be that they use in them. Whether it be the earphone or bottom speaker on the rear that they use both are bad.

Speaker Phone Volume boost ?

Im having issues with the volume of the Call volume on the main speaker when i press speaker phone while in a call.
im currently running CM7.1 with 2.3.5 but no matter what i try using the settings in CM or with the Volume+ app the person is still at very low volume.
I do a lot of driving and this pisses me off because the volume of music from the speaker is fine and can be turned up so loud that it becomes distorted, and i can't stand using a headset, pisisng around with wires while driving and getting caught on stuff in the cab.
Anyone know of a good way to boost this as alot of things i have tryed just keep FC'ing on me when i connect headphones or receive a call.
This could be the party on the other line. Most music or other video/ podcasts are recorded with quality sound. Phone microphones aren't as good.

Well i have only ever tested it when receiving or making the call from an IPhone 3G and a Nokia E70, every time the call has been low volume from both handsets.
strange volume+ ver.174 doesn't work for you because I blow my speaker using it. I turned the speaker volume up to 15 and the phone volume was maxed and later that day I was sprint for a exchange. Thats the only app that increases your volume to that degree so if it isn't working it maybe your phone.

15 ?!!! That's excessive. I have mine at +4 and still have some trepidation most times, but +15...that's crazy.

Anyone else have poor volume control on XL?

I have several issues with the HTC One XL.
1)The speaker volume can not be fully adjusted down. I find the phone is loud enough at high volumes, but the minimum volume is still very high!
2)Bluetooth volume control does not function at all. The slider moves but the call volume never changes.
3)Bluetooth "microphone" volume seems too high and sounds very distorted. The phones microphone is clearly not in use, but it is the phone causing the loud distorted sound for the mic.

[Q] Speaker Volume WAY too low

Differently from others who find that headphones volume is low, I think that what is really low is the speaker volume.
Using, or should I say trying to use, this phone for a call inside a car using the speaker is impossible... the volume is too low and the car noise, even at lower speeds will be higher.
Is there a way to increase the volume without changing kernel or rom? Maybe some system option like the one that can be used on ATT LG G2.
Thanks.

There is currently no system boost. I have to say when the phone was delivered I hated everything in the sound department with the Nexus 5. The volume is erratic my 5 year old daughter loves nextflix and the playback is so quiet even she was like where's is the volume boost. I am sure there will be a software fix by developers or google soon, well I hope so.
Hi of you use volume + this works to increase the sound always

Call volume, earpiece and speaker

Hi All
I am on my second handset, as the first one had a huge gap between the screen and the frame which held lots of debris so exchanged it.
I didn't make that many calls with the original handset before i exchanged it, so did not have a chance to use the speakerphone for a call. However, today I made a call on speaker and noticed that the volume is really low until you get to full on the scale and then it suddenly jumps up loudly and sounds like it has been enhanced? In call volume through the earpiece isn't exactly stunning either, have to have the volume either on full on one below.
I tried playing music through the speakers and it sounds absolutely perfect, equally as loud as the first handset.
I'm considering exchanging again, as I definitely think that the first handset had much better call volume (can't be 100% sure though), but I just wanted to check here to see if others find the call volume not so great?

Call Volume is horrible, what can I do to fix it?

Hello.
I've gotten pretty frustrated with using my 3a for a while now regarding this specific issue, the call volume is just always super low and makes using the default phone app unbearable because I can hardly hear the other person, it is ALWAYS at max volume btw.
I just genuinely do not understand why the call volume is so low whilst the other volumes (media, alarms, etc) don't seem to have this issue and I can even get additional apps to boost the volume for those- but not the call volume.
It seems to have gotten worse just several days ago when some liquid hit the grill , so now instead of it sounding like someone is 3 feet away from the phone, it just sounds like 6 feet away. But even with this situation, it did NOTHING to my other volume settings.
Is there anything I can do to improve the loudness at all without depending on headphones? I would prefer having the phone on my ear , especially since calls on headphones literally echo whatever gets picked up on my microphone back to me I just honestly hate it.
Get a replacement phone. That's not normal. My call volume gets loud.

Is that really the only possible solution here...?
Everything else is fine...I just cannot find a way to make the call volume louder, just seems like Im stuck putting it on speakers or using headphones at the moment.
