Low in call Volume of Ascend Mate 7 - Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear All,
I have Mate 7 MT7-L10 but the call receiver volume is too low even if it is set at its maximum. Can any one have some mod to increase its volume??
Please help.

The Mate 7 is very loud. Volume enough already two-thirds. Surely that is not defective speaker?

The Mate 7 has a low volume output even when all volume controls are set to maximum and the in-pocket mode is set. I found this to be true on the in-store demo models (3 units in different stores and countries) and my own unit. The ring volume and alert volumes are also lower than they should be. If one is in a quiet environment ok, but in a noisier environment, they are way too low. Perhaps Huawei should tweak the appropriate firmware to manage this problem.

Good idea. At one point it appeared as if someone from Huawei was monitoring these XDA forums. It could be useful for them. Note. Otherwise I am very pleased with the Mate 7.

Yes very right all other things are perfect in this model except low volume which can be managed by tweaking through firmware. As I have a Note 3 and was planning to buy Note 4 but I am quite satisfy with Mate 7 except this low volume issue.

I agree that the volume is low compared to other high end phones.

Has anyone found a solution yet to increase call volume when using headphones on the Mate 7? I am barely able to hear the other party during calls, even at the maximum setting.

I don't know what is the problem in your unit. Believe me this phone is the highest volume, I have ever seen. I have to reduce the volume so that other people don't listen to conversation even without speakers off.

Using the headset or the earpiece? I'm talking of using the headset. The output of the 3.5mm jack is far too low.
I found a solution, btw. I deleted the /system/etc/audio/codec folder and tadaaa - output appears at least twice as loud, both during calls and when listening to music. Previously, I had to set my car's stereo to volume setting 25 (I usually use 15 when listening to the radio) to be able to hear something on the autobahn, now I only need to set it to 12-15.
So there definitely was an issue with output on the headphone jack, and for my device it is now solved.

Alright I thought you saynig earpiece.. or loud speaker...
but you mentioned you deleted codecs in system audio ..
now go and check your video recording and you will hear distorted audio
check pls and let me know..
i know this trick long time ago and I did it on earlier phones (i think on lg) and audio in video recording was wrong.. don't remember now if it was left or right

Everything's just fine. I know it's always a risk tinkering with the system, which is why I made a backup of the codec folder just in case. But so far, no issues at all in daily use.

boost volume ?

has anyone found a successful way to boost volume ? seems a bit quiet on headphones as well as speakers.
i know my dad bought a cheap mp3 player and there was a software limit to headphones due to EU regulations !? is anyone in the US finding the volume low ?
Ive been using Equalizer app and its pretty good. But since 3.1 I'm getting alot of fc. Also if I am running playerpro I can't enable Equalizer. I need tofc playerpro first and then launch Equalizer in order for it to work. Even with Equalizer the speakers sucks. Hopefully there's a fix soon with the right and left speakers
My volume goes to 11 on my US Transformer. If you turn it all the way up the speakers are distorting so bad I thought they we going to pop. Definitely overdriving them.

lol..... movie buff maybe ?
seriously though my dads mp3 player was limited to a specific volume on UK settings. he changed to US and the volume significantly increased.....
We get all sorts of strange 'directives' from the EU..... including rules on banana curves !
www.itpro.co.uk/615685/rnid-welcomes-eu-mp3-volume-standards
US transformer and the volume was too low with my crappy over the ear headphones, but was louder with a borrowed pair of the standard iphone headphones (in-ear) ... still could have used more volume though. This was while on an airplane so it was a noisy environment.
I am using "audio+ (volume boost)" works wonders
Do any of these apps allow you to change the balance on left/right speaker? I'm looking for something that will let me play a video file with only the left speaker or only the right speaker. Anyone know of anything?

[Q] why my phone's speaker volume is low?

I bought nexus 5 a month ago. from then i don't know weather this is the problem or the volume of speaker is built low. i am getting very low ringing volume . while on cal its loudspeaker volume is very good and while on head set volume is also very good. only problem is while ringing a cal or while playing music via loud speaker the volume is below average. i went to service center they just took one more nexus 5 which they had(that one was other customers phone which has a software bug) and compare it with that phones speaker that phone is also giving same volume. but i have read reviews that its speaker has very good sound. and it has around 65db sound. my friend has iphone 5 it has 68db which sounds very good(while ringing). but mine with less just 3db difference is not even half i think. i saw in internet lg released an hardware upgrade so that speakers can be changed is that correct? how can i fix this?
This is a well known issue.
You can flash this zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2532788
There are a few other methods as well. You can also look at viper4android or faux sound deal.
I use the sound file called sedna..with no fixes I can hear it clear across the house even without full volume.

You`l have to root to increase loudness, read the first 4 threads in the General section first first first first and don`t use toolkits
It isn't a defect, all of them are pretty quiet. I just flashed franco kernel and used his app to boost the speaker volume. It's almost too loud now...the lowest setting was the highest one before.

Yes it on max.
I also noticed low volume call on speaker phone, I try it with the audio setting clear audio+ on or off still to low especially when in a car..
I really luv this phone so I always try everything possible to make this Phone work for me..
So I try out this app on the play store it was recommend by another member on this forum it's call Noozxoide Eizo-rewire pro series.. I try the regular series but got better results using the pro series..
After install go to the phone sound setting, go to music effect make sure to check on Noozxoide instead of audio setting..
After go to the Noozxoide app and these are the settings I used and notice a big difference on speaker phone..These settings are for built in, on board speakers
Gonna submit some screen shots.. I hope this helps
One question to anyone, when on speaker phone, is it supposed to only use one speaker and not both?

It uses one.

Serious audio issues, can anyone else test?

Hello, it seems im experiencing the exact same issue as here: http://en.miui.com/thread-81318-1-1.html
I tried latest MIUI / CM12.1, can anyone else confirm it? Is this a software issue? Any fixes possible? It's extremely annoying..
The problem with sound when it's played with headphones on LOW VOLUME. (especially with in-ear plugs with good noise cancelling like Xiaomi Piston, it's less noticable on other types of headphones)
It is VERY noticable in quiet music or when listening to speech without background music like podcasts or audiobooks, or when the music fades out. I would describe it as hissing noise with a lot of distortion. (just listen to some audiobook to test)
With loud music it's less noticable because music overlaps the distortion.
The problem is the same with the speaker but it's much less noticable. (you have to put speaker close to ear to hear it)
Can anyone test it on your phone? :good:
Can anyone check it on their phone please? Maybe it's just mine and i will need to replace it..

I can confirm it, there's a little bzzz but i can barely notice that, so it's not a big problem for me because i always use vibration mode and also i usually don't listen music with the phone...

Headphones volume

Anyone else is struggling with SUPER LOW headphones volume? Before OP6 I had HTC One M8 which was LITERALLY 3 times louder. I am using SoundMagic E10c(cable, jack) and I am wondering if similiar problem exists for BT headphones. Need some way to have music with decent volume, since I am listening to music basically all the time.
Any way to fix this?
That's true. I hope that there will be a Sound mod in the future

The same problem doesn't exists in case of BT headphones for sure... Its just bad with wired one's, really underwhelming! Waiting for some good audio mod to maybe help fix that issue if possible.

My earphone volume is fine. Using non standard music player/ equaliser and good bearphones
I don't know why people say it's quiet on headphones I've 3.5 jack. I use bullets V2 from OnePlus and the volume and quality are fine.

I haven't noticed a difference in the sound over my LG HBS850 (Bluetooth), and I haven't tried my 3.5mm cable headphones yet.
I have OP6. After reading the complaints here checked with different brands of earphones. The sound is really loud and clear. Even at medium levels I have sufficient loudness. Equalizer too works well. I checked the earphone audio in Player Pro music player, Saavan streaming music and YouTube. I am very much happy with what I hear in terms of loudness and fidelity. I don't think the mentioned complaint is true universally.

I experienced the volume loss as well. When using the phone in my car I have to adjust the radio by almost 10 ticks (from volume 18-20 to up to 30 now).
Yesterday in my car with the oneplus 3 no problems, but the 6 has some very low volume settings. It's kinda frustrating at this point, the volume sucks and the quality doesn't match up to what the oneplus 3 could produce. I think it has something to do with the equalizer that oneplus 6 now offers. This morning while trying to adjust the settings I've downloaded the snapdragon equalizer on top of the baked in equalizer and that seems to kinda do the trick (boosts the volume by a bit).
Oh boy, same here. Using a pair of M50x's, they don't need much power to get going but I've noticed it's not as loud as my 3. I have a fiio K1 amp but didn't work on the 3, figured it might! work on the 6 but nope! so I guess I'm stuck using a amp with the headphone jack.
Oneplus really needs to improve their audio output power, that's for sure.
So I just noticed something. Music is actually fine and loud ONLY when i am choosing ringtone. Spotify/Google Play/VLC etc. all is silent, even after installing Viper4Android it's still to silent.
I agree, the volume of the headphone jack is very low and the overall sound quality is bad. My HTC one A9 is brilliant when using audio files from the jack. It's loud and clean but the OP6 is too low and very bad sounding. Not for audiophiles. I tried with Viper and it's the same.
I felt low volume intially , but after 5.1.8 update I think the volume is good. (May be its just my feel ?)
I tried with ATH M50x and samsung stock earphone.
With the filo e7K the sound quality is good enough ...

I have cheapo ear buds with 16 ohm impedance, just like yours. Anything above 80% volume is uncomfortably loud. Perhaps your unit is defective?
chiming in, no issue here, brand new, white OP6... I'm smitten
for me volume too low even with viper4android
Massively loud with black player, amp and good bass earphones, even the speaker is much louder than my HTC 10
Give ElementalX kernel a try, I've flashed it and boosted my amp output. It helps! with viper4android I don't really need an external amp anymore. But.. it's still better

Same here until i have changed the headphones value (Rx1 and Rx2 mix digital volume) on the "mixer path tavil.xml" file located here : Root/vendor/etc
90 is perfect and you will see a huge difference ! Try and let me know. If you prefere i Can also send you my customised file ?
Don't what y'all talking about, the sound over the headphone jack is so loud to the point I set it only at 60-70%... And the quality is great too, Had a nexus 6p and LG G5 before this one.. but i tried a lot of phones
This one is really loud with great quality overall

Probably because you're leaving outside Europe and not aware of the EU Volume limitation...
