running beanstalk rom and the speaker phone volume is very low. i remember manually rasising it up through my root explorer app but can not remember exactly how i did it. I have searched but with no luck. Anyone know how i can accomplish this? where is the folder that houses the phone volumes?
Thanks

Hi,
I've been trying to get a handle on this. . . My in call volume is pretty low at its maximum setting. I can hear well enough so long as there isn't much ambient noise, but if I'm out on the street (NYC) it's extremely difficult to hear the person I'm talking to.
I've seen some posts about Volume+ having in call volume settings, but I haven't been able to find anything useful, just a way to change the volume steps under the root options.
So, my question is this:
Is there any means whatsoever to boost my in call volume? I'm currently running ViperXL 1.2.1. Would a different kernel offer any remedy?
Thanks,
Chris
Did this happen on stock rom?
In my experience having owned a HTC Diamond, HTC Desire, and now the One X, HTC has terrible in call volume.

try to wipe cache and dalvik in recovery and reboot. Volume + is very useful and works great on the hox, i work mostly outdoors and find it indispensable
I haven't gone back to stock yet.
Speaking of which. . . . If I flash the 1.85 stock ROM, I shouldn't lose root or anything correct? Right now I've got root and an unlocked bootloader.
Also, I can't for the life of me find any settings to boost the in call volume in Volume+. All of the setting just seem to apply to the external speaker, headphones or bluetooth. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Chris

when you open volume + under the sound settings menu it has an in-call settings menu but you need root. why would you flash the stock 1.85 if you just came from 2.20 ?

I just reckoned I'd go back to the version that my phone shipped with. Doesn't really matter I suppose.
I don't see any option in Volume+ that pertains to in call setting other than Sound Settings->Root Tools->In-Call Step Options.
I'm going check out the stock ROM tonight hopefully.
Anyone else? My call volume (both speakerphone and ear) are extremely low yet the sounds come through the speaker loud and clear for games, music, etc. I can't seem to find any mention of this anywhere other than a tiny thread on Reddit in the Moto G subreddit but no mention on how to fix it. Any ideas how to fix this?
Edit: Just restarted and it resolved itself. I had restarted after upgrade but it seems a 2nd one would've been required. Disregard.
Hello, i have the same problem but a restart doesn't resolve....the volume is very low. I tried a factory reset but nothing changed
having the same problem after updating to 4.4.2
Motorola's advise: lower the incall volume to min, switch the phone off and then on again.
Worked for me, permanent fix.

Just turning volume down and the up during call will fix it, It's a known bug in KitKat on our devices

I have the same problem but the said workaround doesn't seem to be working. Is this using the rocker all the way? The moto forums all give different solutions but none of them seem to be working.
I agree with zippo, just turn the volume down a notch during the call and it increases the volume.
Strange but it works!

Hello! Do you know any way to increase volume of voice speaker? It's too low for me. Device runs with root, CWM and CM11.

The fix is the same for internal or external earpiece or speaker. While in a call, turn the volume to 0, then turn back up to your desired output level.

I have been helped a lot by this forum so i thought i would give back! You can fix this problem with es file explorer And root access. First turn on root explorer in es file explorer, go to menu, local, device, find folder etc. Click on the file named mixer_paths.xml. click the top right menu button and select edit then scroll down and find the line <ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" /> ( your number may not be 84) and change that number to 94. Do the same for the next two lines (lines should look the same except with RX2 and RX3). Save and exit, then reboot and it should be fixed. You can try different numbers but much over 94 and my speakers distorted. All volumes will be increased including in call volumes. This may work for other phones but no guarantees
Is there an app or other software to boost the volume? All my volume settings are maxed and i cant really hear the caller. Sometimes, though, it comes in just fine, but most of the time it doesnt.
Thanks

I had this problem with another phone and after an extensive search, I ultimately gave up on it. I will share what I tried and maybe save you a little trouble.
First and simplest, try gently cleaning out the earpiece with a little toothpick, a pin, or better yet blow it out with some air. This seems to work for some people, as overtime gunk can build up inside the screen.
Next, there are a lot of apps that claim to work as volume boosters. Most of them are for speaker volume and not for in-call volume. After sifting through many of them I found one or two that claimed to help in call volume but they really did not work. If you go this route then "happy hunting".
Some ROMs have a hearing aid setting under the Accessibility options but I couldn't tell you which. The ROM I'm using has ways to change the volume steps for all volume settings and that might help (I'm using Liquid Smooth found here in the DEV section).
There is an Xposed module that enables you to adjust some volume steps.
Viper for Android gives you a lot of control over the sound of the device (it has Xloud) and it works well with the Apollo Music Player found on many ROMs but I can't say for sure it helps in-call volume. It sure makes music sound good though.
Last and hardest, if you are rooted and have a file managing app, you can go into the system files and edit them. This would probably require the assistance of a dev who could tell you exactly where these file are located and what the correct settings should be. Of course, there is always a chance of damaging your phone this way.
That's all I know. Hopefully, one of these options will work for you, or someone wiser will jumped in with a better solution. Good luck!
You need to tell everyone what software you are using and how long you have been having a problem.
So does anybody know how to raise the earpiece (in call speaker) volume with root, changing values in files and stuff?
I already changed the values for headphones and loudspeaker in the mixer_paths file but I couldn't find the earpiece volume maybe its not ther idk. I searched here in XDA and only found mods and guides that don't work for the nexus 5... So if anybody knows I would appreciate it
Use root explorer (or any file manager with root capabilities) and go to /system/etc
Open mixer_path.xml using notepad
Find "ear" and change the values. Max value is 93.
And then push it to /system/etc replacing your old one.
When I connect my headphones and listen to music, volume is pretty loud.
When I get a call, the volume during the call through the headphone is very low. Is that a standard thing in MI4?
I replaced one mi4 with another, and that also has the same issue.
If its a standard issue, is there any fix for that?

That might help. If you don't have CWM or TWRP recovery, you can unpack zip and copy /system/etc/*.xml files to phone with Root Browser or similar app. Remember to set same permissions as original files.
