Hi guys!
It's well known that Microsoft increased the volume of the speakers with the new update.
But I noticed a pretty annoying problem:
If you set the volume to a low value and watch a movie for example and there's f.e. only a conversation ongoing the speakers turn off when they "think" that they don't have to play anything and don't turn on again quick enough (hard to describe ^^).
The outcome is that it just sounds weird and you have to turn up the volume to make them stay on.
Did anyone else notice that and possibly know how to fix that?

Hey,
I have had a HTC Touch sins 5th of December and i have found a problem I'm not sure if anyone is aware but its quite annoying. The sound through headphones and even to the extent of through the speakers is very quite and I'm not sure what i can do to improve that. Is there some kind of update or something. I could understand the phone speaker being quite and i don't partiuclly mind that but when trying to use it to listen to music or watch a film i find i can't even make out what there saying.
I don't have bad hearing so it can't be that.
Thanks for any help you can provide in advance
Did you make sure that your device volume is turned up all the way? Also make sure that your media player volume is turned up all the way.
It may also be that the media files you are playing have very low volume. Compare this by playing these files on your computer - do you have to turn your computer speakers up high just to hear? this would confirm low sound right in media file.
Do you have wow or srswow or whatever it is called installed. I have heard others having problems with this installed on their devices. this could be the problem. Uninstaling did not work in their case and they had to perform a hard reset (possibly because it had changed registry settings) I don't know if there is any other explanation or solution to your problem. The only time I have ever experienced low sound volume was when my volume settings were set low and I forgot to turn them back up.
to my knowledge there's no way of increasing hardware volume..
you can amplify the media using Goldwave or something.. and check that the volume meter is up all the way both in your media player and on your device.
I've got a problem with my Omnia 7. Inexplicably, plugging in headphones causes the speaker volume to be boosted substantially after the headphones are unplugged, with no change in the actual software volume level. I'm not sure whether this is a software problem or what (it certainly wasn't fixed in Mango, at least). Rebooting the phone is the only way I've been able to fix it (ie, reduce the volume to what it was originally).
I've heard of people complaining about the loudness and lack of volume variation in the Omnia, but I'm not sure if this is linked to that somehow.
If someone can test this out it would be great, if only so I can get my phone replaced if it's specific to my device. Just reboot your phone, and observe the loudness of the lock/unlock sounds before and after headphones are inserted and removed. It doesn't need to be tested on the Omnia 7 specifically, though - if it's a software issue it's likely to be present on other devices as well.
TLDR; all speaker sounds, whether that be from music, games, system sounds, etc, are louder after I use earphones, even if the volume number is the same. Rebooting it fixes it. If anyone with any device could test this it would be a great help.
Does no one else have this issue? I would appreciate it if one of the many Samsung Omnia 7 owners could test it, at least.
I just tested it and I dont see any change or boost in volume on my SO7.. does your music auto stop playing when you pull out your headphones?
Maybe I explained it incorrectly, here's a video of it:

I sounds louder in reality, but hopefully you can see the increase. Thanks for testing it, though
But yes, the music does stop playing when I remove the earphones. The increase isn't limited to music - it affects all sounds.
I tested it again after seeing your video.. mine remains the same, no increase like in your device..
Infact after watching your video I think the first sound is miffed... after you plug in the earphone and out than the sound it makes is the original sound/volume..
Haven't used a Nexus in a long while so not sure if this is a stock Android thing, but it would seem daft if it isn't - my problem is this:
I want to sit in bed at night with my headphones plugged in, listening to podcasts. I *don't* want the phone to vibrate every time someone tweets me or texts me in the meanwhile. There isn't a mute feature evident within the volume settings and if I turn on Do Not Disturb I get no notifications but my sound output also completely disappears. My requirement doesn't seem too niche to me!
This seems utterly ridiculous, and someone - either Sony or Google - seems to have made volume control overly complicated for no good reason.
Can anyone help? I hope I'm just missing something, and all is forgiven if so

Hi everybody, I have a strange problem with my phone.
As title said, when I call for some time (like ca. 20mins or more) my volume completely drop if I use capsule audio and when I use stereo mode the other person hear a whistle. I've tried to change sim and reset phone but nothing changes. Have you any idea on how to fix this thing or do you think is hardware related? Just for information: at the beginning there wasn't that problem. Please help me
Hey
Recently brought a xtrons head unit
Seems to work fine but there is a strange issue
The volume on the radio is very loud and have to only have it at a quarter at most but in any other app (tried bt music and Spotify) the volume is very low and I have to have it at its highest to get anything usable out of it.
Can't see anything in the settings for it. Has anyone encountered anything like this?
Cheers
Try first and go to the factory settings. On the first page I mean you find the volume settings for radio, system, Bluetooth and something else. Take a look that every entry are close together.
In my case the voice for navigation was to noisy. I've set the system volume up and it was fine.
