I am using a pair of AKG y50's and all though sounding great on the s6 the volume is low.. By this I mean for me to have them at a decent volume means I have to turn it up to around 90%.
Anyway to improve this without root etc?

Have you tried using the Adapt Sound feature in the settings app? This will adjust the sound volume and clarity based on your listening levels. You should set it up and try listening again to see if that helps.

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 !

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?
Hi!
I bought car holder for my Note Pro to listen music from it and use it as navigator.
I noticed that volume level is very weak over Bluetooth (I connect my devices to my car speakers over BT) when compaired to my Note 3. NP is same loud on max volume what Note 3 is with 3/4 volume. So max volume leaves too low (I have to trun so much volume to my car radio that I'm terrified of blowing up my aplifiers, since I have never turn volume so loud when using USB, radio, or Note 3 over BT).
Is there any way to boost that volume up, to get it at least same level as Note 3? I got rooted tablet, but no custom recovery or so.
I found somewhere that editing mixer_paths file, you can increase volume levels, but only for speakes and headphones.
So any help is welcome
Try Viper4Android. Gives you a bit of gain control, and other quality enhancements over speaker, headphones, USB and Bluetooth.

In fact I found and installed it yesterday evening, just hadn't got time to test it. At least there is option to enable Bluetooth tweaks and boost volume level up. Need to test does it really do that on my device.
I'll report here when I have tested it.
I've never tried it on smp900, but works really well on my Nexus 5/Bluetooth

I haven't got time to get any deeper in to this, but so far when I enable master power for Bluetooth devices on Viper4Android and set "output gain" up to the max (6.0dB) under master gate, I get a bit louder BT output.
This is good start, just can't turn enough gain to it. Clearly my Note 3 is still louder when playing music through BT than my NP.
Need to play around V4A and read about it to find out if there's some other twaks that could help me on this.
I've heard that the internal DAC in the S7 is really weak, but is it really this weak? When I listen to music with headphones, I have to raise the volume to ~80% just to sound like how ~30-40% would sound on most devices. This is the same with both wired headphones and Bluetooth headphones
Its fine. Much much louder than my previous sony xperia z3 compact
It most certainly is not fine. At roughly 66% volume, I cannot hear anything when I'm on an airplane. I travel a lot for work and have to crank the volume up past 90% just to listen to podcasts when flying.

I have no issues with it. It depends on the source and type of headphone. Stock headphones are not sealing type so there no way it's going to cancel out airplane. Get sealing earphone and it'll be too loud.
I have volume problems too. Actually at 1-3 notches sound gets cut off!
To clarify it goes from decently loud at the 4+ to well I can't hear half the things at 3 (drops in and out). What I can hear is still loud enough. At step 1 I can hear about 20% at the volume in expecting and the rest is silent.
Then to make things worse, call volume keeps resetting to step 2 or 3. I'd take a call and max it out then next call it will be at 2/3 again.. I believe some app is setting the media volume to call volume. But I have no new apps and did not have this problem on S6.

You should try this mod , IF you're rooted and have a custom recovery. Works really well.

I don't use stock headphones and i always use sealing types in airplanes. When I connect to my car via the aux port, i have to run full volume on the phone and two notches down from full volume on the car stereo to match sound levels from my OPO. My stereo settings go from 0-40, i run 38 with the S7. OPO i can set the stereo to 30 and it matches S7 volume.
I've noticed if I have maps or a GPS running after the GPS uses the speaker, it can use the "full" volume again until I remove and plug a auxiliary cable again. It's a dirty work around but it is effective.

Go to sound quality settings and bump the equalizer all the way up. Can also turn on hearing aid assist

I don't have much time so I'll be quick:
When I hear music or videos without headphones I put the volume on the lowest possible volume (barely above mute).
To be frank, it's still to loud, the S8+ was not as loud as the OP7Pro but it was able to go really silent with audible sound.
Is there a mod or possibly an ADB command to lower the volume from I guess the lowest stage (≈5%) to 1, 2 or 3?
OP7Pro, Android 10, absolutely amazing phone.

I agree, the lowest speaker volume setting is still way too loud.
What I do is use Viper4Android and set all the EQ bands to -10db for the speaker.
It is not a perfect solution because this reduces the maximum volume by 10db, but I personally never need that much volume...

Is your Oneplus rooted? Looking for a non-root way.

Yeah, need root for V4a. Don't think you'll find any other solution. Tried searching and googling for something to help, couldn't find anything.

i also have this problem , a solution would be great .
i remember on older phones there were mods to make more steps in the volume adjustment ( allow for a finer adjustment ) . maybe we can port something from there
Today I've bought Sony MDR WF-XB700's and sound quality is great but I feel like the maximum volume is too low for me, I listen to music loudly and these I think are normal for most of the people but I feel like bass could punch a lot harder but I just can't turn up the volume that high. I've tried the disable absolute volume for bluetooth and tried increasing the gain from viper4android (rooted) but it just clips the sound, I'm looking for anything even rooted solutions, thanks. Phone is LG G7.
Really is this problem that bad that no one knows how to solve? I'll end up returning them in the last it seems like.
