I have the same problem.
To be more precise - the call volume sometimes goes very low. I hope that this is SW problem (because this is only on call, not if I listen to other sounds) and Google will solve it.

I wonder if a kernel can boost up the volume ?

How to fix inaudible call volume

Running stock 2.3.3. Even with call volume maxed out I can barely hear the person on the other end. I have tried with multiple calls to multiple people and get the same thing.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Anyone experienced something similar?

i have that problem, i tend to use speaker more. hopefully a mod comes soon
I'm running CM7 RC1 with Voodoo kernel, not sure if the Voodoo sound patch has any part in this, but the volume on my phone is quite loud when using Skype. But in a noisy environment, I'd rather use a pair of noise blocking earphone or headset.
Yea i can barely hear the other person as well. I dont know if its just in my head but it almost seems like it started after the 2.3.3 update

During a call turn the volume down and then back up. When you turn it down you won't notice much difference but you will when you turn it up again. It seems that the volume settings thinks it's at max when it isn't and you need to reset it by turning it down.
Hmm ill give that a shot

Could be your service provider too.

Don't think so. The same issue was present with the N1, kernel developers implemented an audio boost feature that really helped this issue out. Hopefully we will see the same for the NS soon enough.
I would LOOOOOVE for an audio boost similar to the N1 to be implemented for the NS.

[Q] volume of the front speakers? Help please
hello all
does anyone know the phonecodes for the nexus s (service mode)? I want to increase the handset (speaker to the ear)!
in the galaxy s, he is **#*#197328640#*# but not work
nexus s CM7 netarchy 1.2.7
sorry for my bad english
does anybody know how to raise the volume of the front speakers?
I'd like to do this also. Default max volume is too low, sometimes hard to hear what people say.
exactly!
It must be possible to increase the volume
with the voodoo kernel only the speakers on the back work
I have the same problems, in call volume is too low :-( and its not the provider because with my Galaxy S the volume is okay.
Phone speaker is quiet but with my bt earpiece I can get it loud enough to hurt my ears.

i don't know about you guys, but i have no problem hearing the call even in busy ( noisy ) streets environments.
using any of the 3 methods:
normal ear speaker
back speaker
BT headset
on 2.3.3 stock, no mods of any kind
temporarily solution:
During call set volume to min and then to max and then it's OK. After reboot problem is back.

Only volume probs I come across 2.3.0-2.3.3 has been the other person's provider (att, Boost, Metro) so far.

Volume control in call

In every rom I've tried, the volume buttons don't work when I'm holding the phone to my head. Is this supposed to be like that? Anyone know of a way to fix this?
Also, is there a way to decrease the min volume, even the lowest is still loud.
Thanks

Anyone experiencing In-call volume issues?

I got the phone yesterday... And I'm for the most part happy.... I've been running the phone to the limit trying to test all that it can do.. while testing the Incall performance I had a couple people complain that they needed me to turn my volume up when it was already on max ... Is anyone else having this issue... This is a big deal for me... Also if someone is having this issue do you have a work around?

Probably when he keeps saying "What"?
I get mine on saturday but I hear there is some option for deaf/hard of hearing people that if enabled, helps out alot. I can't verify yet tho

I don't have a Sensation yet, but on my Vibrant I had to turn on HAC mode, which increased the call volume.
Settings > Call Settings > HAC Mode
I'm not talking about my speaker volume.... It's more a microphone volume issue I hear the other person fine

In call volume very low.....

Anyone have any problems with in call volume through the handset Being very quiet. Speaker phone is loud but hearing people in a semi loud environment is near impossible without smashing the phone against my ear. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Q] N5 + Pandora + Jambox = Sound problem ?

Hi there. Just got my n5 and tried playing Pandora through my Jambox. The sound got pegged at 100% and could not be changed. I could mute it altogether, but could not regulate it with either the phone software, hardware or the jambox volume buttons. Had anyone else tried with the jambox or any other Bluetooth speaker?
Thanks.

Looks like I am not alone. Seems to be a Kitkat Bluetooth issue. Hope for a fix right away. More information:

There is more too, but I don't want to post too much. Just trying to get some attention to this to make sure Google sees this. Perhaps an xda dev can look into this as well.
Thanks and happy thanksgiving for those in US.

I can confirm that the Bluetooth speaker volume problem is fixed in 4.4.1
