So I installed PowerAMP on the Nexus 5. When I played a song stored on the phone, the volume was too low. I was able to hear it clearly only after maxing my phone volume.
I opened GooglePlay Music app and played the same song again. The difference is tremendous. Even with mid volume settings, I can hear the song clearly.
Is it just me or I am using PowerAMP in a wrong way?
Go into the EQ and disable "Equ, Tone & limit". Then you should have full sound again.
I'm on the nexus 4 at the minute but the behavior is exactly the same. As soon as you enable any of the 3 options the Max volume decreases hugely.

I disabled all three. Yes, there was a mild improvement, still nothing close to Google play.
Thanks any ways. Any other tips appreciated.
I am exactly facing the same issue due to which I m preferring google play music instead of poweramp. Is this due to how play music directly uses DSP rather than a software from poweramp? Can anyone enlighten please?

Try sliding the preamp slider up.

Thank god, I felt i was the only one having the problem.
I forgot the other options sorry.
Goto menu-settings-audio-advanced tweaks.
Disable direct audio control
Enable music fx
Now go back to the eq page and click the tone \ vol tab at the bottom.
Click music fx so that it's highlighted.
Hopefully that will solve your issue

Thanks these changes increased the volume loudness from speaker. I will check the tonality and quality from earphones and report.

By enabling the music fx it should be using the android DSP exactly the same as play music

is there a way to increase the headphone volume? I got to the audio service menu but I don't know which settings to change. I just got a new pair of Bose ae2 and they are extremely quiet. I tried another pair with the same issue. Maybe I'm deaf?
Thanks in advance!

I want to DECREASE the volume. When I listen to music and set it to the lowest setting, it's still too loud. Is there a way to do that?

THANKS! This is just what I needed to break in my new noise cancelling headphones!
I can't seem to find audioboost in the market?
I'm running congnition 2.3b8, does this have something to do with this issue?
There is an app called audio boost that works great. Its a paid app but almost doubled my sound output on my captivate. Well worth it, don't remember how much but worth the price. Your phone must be rooted on froyo or stock rooted or unrooted on 2.1

I can't find Audio in the Market either. What other options do I have to increase captivate volume.
My volume was much higher with Phoenix Rising ROM but not with Andromeda.
Strange nobody's talking about the voodoo control app.....u do need a voodoo or speedmod kernel for it.......voodoo has the option of increasing or decreasing the headphone gain....works like a charm!
I have problems with the sound when set on tv out mode. its gets quietier. Anyone know how to increase volume on the tv out mode?
You could click the thread in my signature and use the galaxy tuner app to adjust it louder or quieter, problem solved. It is also in the market for download. This works for the headphones and the phone speaker. This works with any kernel also.

I'm using pandora too no problems here

Don't know how crazy loud you like your music but I can't turn the volume up all the way on my atrix without hurting my ears and I also love to blast my music.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
It's not that loud. Comparing it with nexus s and galaxy s running voodoo sound ...after using ns atrix sounds feels low..don't have that punch I like. But at least is better than most phones.

What kind of headphones are you using cause if I put it all the way up it hurts
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
haha i like ym music blaring so loud everyone else can hear it haha.... and the atrix jsut does not do that... i know my iphone 4 the volume was very very loud, and throw in the normalization tweak in itunes, songs where blasting and throw in good headphones and now your talking..... idk it just does not seem loud enough... i remember back in my HTC touch pro and htc touch HD days, there were apps that changed the volume etc, and even the iphone 4 had mods to change the volume... so hell im sure out device can prolly have something in the same sort!
and PS. the mod that moved this thread, you moved it into the worng phone bro... this is the atrix im talking bout not the inspire.

Yes. Go into music player and select a song and look up at the controls . You will see DTS enable it and you will get a considerable boost in volume
My media volume is loud and clear.
Mine too. Much better than the G2 both connected and via Bluetooth.
Hi guys i have a question about
how i can my music volume higher ?
if there's an app or Some Zip files pleas give it to me and tell me the instructions to install it correctly
Thanks Guys for your time and your effort
Do what i did, find the app called earpiece in the play store. After you install it, open up a music player, play a song, crank up the volume and open earpiece app. Next.thick the audio trough earpiece box and see what happens. You should hear a huge difference and the sound isn't distorted. If nothing changes just click and un click it a few times untill you hear a difference. And also if that's not enough you can also thick the volume boost box but that, as far as I can tell makes your treble stronger and leaves out the bass. Anyways just try it and I can promise your volume will improve.
Btw this works great with the headphones, I haven't tried it on the speaker phone. So just try it out and tell me if it works

i installed before and it causes damage of my mobile sound and i needed to reinstall my stock Rom to fix it
The only thing I really hate about my HOS is the fact that the speaker volume is so low!. As I work in a noisy environment I regularly miss calls as my phone is unheard by me.
I used to have a similar problem back when I owned a HOV but fixed this by using volume+ from play store, unfortunately it doesn't work with the HOS, neither does any other volume boosting app in the market and I've tried many.
It's a killer problem for me and if I can't resolve it I'll be ditching this phone which I love for a nexus 5 early on the new year.
So if anyone has any tips or mods for increasing system volume output then please help.

I don't think you will have luck boosting the speaker volume.
Maybe think about a smartwatch that vibrates your wrist when a call is coming in.
