Have you noticed the extremely low volume of the G1 speaker. i can bearly hear the audio whever i play mp3 or video files. Even the phone ringing is relatevly low compared to any phone i have ever owened!!!
Is there a way to alter the hardware setting and get higher volume out the speaker???
Seems fine to me, doesnt seem too low, mayb its the mp3 ur using. I raise the volume of my files with itunes, but even the default sounds on the G1 seem fine.

Yeah, adjust music/video volume using the keys on the side of the phone while playing a song.
I'm sure you already did that so.... there's a program called volume control that let's you adjust every volume setting the phone offers. Also, my speaker has never been that loud anyways but that program helps a bit.
Any one of you guys know where i can but a new speaker phone peace/thing for the G1. I blew mines out with the volume hack. -.- Thanks in advance.
I've noticed the low volume on Cyanogen's ROM, but on every hero ROM I've tried it seems MUCH louder.
I've noticed it too, but I've always used Meltus' AudioHack app to correct that problem.
The only thing I noticed on the G1 that is weak would be the vibrate. That is pretty weak.
My phone started doing this before donut was out. I was using Xrom, and thought it was the rom causing it. I'm running Dwang 1.13 now, and discovered that my issue is being caused by T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail apk. The speaker would work great until I opened VV. The VV apk, routes the media sounds through the headset speaker, like when holding the phone to your ear in a phone call, but it doesn't always re-route the media sounds (and ringer for that matter) back to the loud speaker. There is a hack/apk/widget out to fix it, claiming it to be a cupcake issue, but I only had it happened to me after using VV.
To figure out if you have the same issue, block the loud speaker with your finger and play a song. If it gets louder when you remove your finger from covering the loud speaker, then you have a different issue. If it stays the same volume, block and unblock the headset speaker to see if it changes.
MT3G Fix

If you are running MT3G/Magic You can also try this on the G1 to see if you get better sound
CM's system usually doesn't add the MT3G Sound XML
Download and run this: http://drop.io/tfwtv3d/asset/volmt3g-signed-zip
If this doesn't help, use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517745
i had this more then one , dont know for sure bit this is after i did a switchrom, a simple reboot is a fix

I always cup my hand under the phone when watching videos, it boosts the volume a bit

This problem is really annoying, can someone post a link to the fix for me, I haven't been able to find it.
This also happend to my phone. Started with the last stable before the whole google thing with cyan. Tried a hero rom and it was pounden out sound.
So if anyone does have any insight on how to fix this, with reasoning, that would be nice. No "i did this and reset and it just worked" stuff.
Thanks
Also wish my G1 would be louder when a phonecall came in. My older HTC Juno was extremely loud which I prefer because Im not where my phone is 100 percent of the time.
I would also greatly appreciate some insight on how to make the speaker louder with some tweaks and or apps.
Thanks in advance.

Use Meltus' audio hack, it makes the phone really loud. I suggest using g7-6r2
Aye, that should do it
Also, for people experiencing routing problems, my files might also fix that too.
The G7 files included fixes so that they would run on the Cupcake/Donut/Hero/Sapphire. It might fix it, i'm not promising anything though

+1 If your G1 is quiet download Audio Hack from the market and it will not be quiet anymore. People tell me all the time, "dude your phone is ridiculously loud". I love it..
Meltus' app is amazing, i used to hate when i went to show everyone a video from youtube and you cant hear nothing when your out in public. Def recommend it to anyone who thinks their speaker is low.

Your welcome.
My G1 speaker is terrible!
The other end hears constant echo, and it's very soft for me to hear anything.
Google now works perfectly, save for the volume. It doesn't respect my set volume and if I am not on silent it plays sounds and talks back at max volume. This makes using it with headphones nearly impossible. Does anyone have a fix? I mean it works great just the pesky volume issue.
On a sense rom
Does anyone have an recommended apps to fix the in call volume? The sound currently is so low that I can barely tell if someone is on the line. I tried using Paranoid Android and Pacman rom, still no real improvement. I've cleaned out the speakers as well.
I had same issue. I did what you did and it didn't work. In call volume went down real low. I could never find a remedy. If you do,let us know.
For anyone else that finds this, a stop gap is hit volume down when you're on your call, then you can increase the volume with the volume up button. If I find a better solution I'll post here.
Hello,
when i get a call or call someone my microphone volume is very low, so no one can here me. If i blow in to the microphone or speak loud and directly in it the other side hears it, but with very low volume.
If i record audio with WhatsApp everything is fine. Factory-reset hasn't solved the problem.
Do you guys know what to do to fix this?
Greetings,
EZTEQ
I got the opposite issue, while recording a video the audio is fine but on whatsapp and calls its low. Changed roms and every single one is the same, I wonder if there is any setting we can poke into.
Anyone please?
I am getting very low volume even at max setting when the voice note is played thru the earpiece. It's fine with the speakers though. Seems like software issue. Any one else facing this bug?
same here plus thay audio will start on spesker before you put phone on yoir ear and thats annoying
So this is not the only phone plagued with this bug. A52 also has this.
