Volume / headphone gains too low - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I like the Phone, but again the headphone gain is way too low... I guess there is no way to make it louder without rooting? Because I do not want to **** up Knoxx.
Another solution could be a microUSB audio amp / dac? Anyone knows which one works best with the S7 (FIIO K7 / Fulla Schiit / Nexum Aqua / HRT dsp ) ???

Crap man... I barely turn it up 50%..with stock earbuds. What type of headphone are you using that need so much volume?

I connect my phone to a 40 watt work radio. Without being able to modify the volume output through the audio jack it's just too quiet. I'm on my phone now so I don't remember where but there is another thread about boosting the volume and how to do it.

[Q] X-mini II speaker with Desire HD

I just bought this xmi x-mini II speaker
the sound is incredibly loud and very good bass for its size
when connected to my laptop, ipod or iphone...
while connecting it with my desire hd its volume has just enough loudness,
on max volume on phone and max on xmini speaker...
i wonder if how many power output from the 3.5mm earphone jack the desire hd have,
does it cause this or is it just a software issue since the speaker has built-in battery that could last up to 12 hours on normal playback so i guess power output is not an issue.
anyone got this speaker?
I've got one of these; awesome little thing and excellent battery life too.
I've not tried it in any other phone so I can't judge how much louder or quieter than other devices the headphone output on the DHD is. Still, 'loud enough' for me...

I may have the solution, I also have a X-Mini and it's possibly the best gadget I've ever bought, the problem is not the X-Mini but it's in fact your Desire HD or should I say the software. I found the fix for this by accident and posted it in the general forum and it worked for just about everyone. Do this, plug in your X-Mini play your music and put everything as loud as possible on the phone and on the X-Mini, while it's playing open up the phone and make a phone call, the call needs to go all the way through, end the call and presto magic !! Listen to the sound difference... be prepared to put the volume down. If this does not work try downloading volume ace from the market and turn everything up with that.
I found this fix one day by accident when I had my phone plugged into the audio jack of my car.

[Q] Increasing Bluetooth Volume on Nexus 5

Hi,
I have a rooted Nexus 5 that I use for music with bluetooth headphones. I've applied the headphone volume boost from XDA which has worked a treat for wired headphones, but I'm wondering whether it is possible to do a similar volume boost of the bluetooth audio output. Any ideas?
Thanks!

+1 I'm looking for the same thing. The max volume on Bluetooth speaker is always 10% softer than if you plug a wire into the aux input without Bluetooth. I wonder if there is a way to boost the volume so that it matches the volume attained from a direct aux wire.

I would try to see if there may be a Xposed module that may help or if you can use a compatible kernel with volume boost. Viper Audio may also help since raising the settings within equalizer to boost vocals/bass/etc if you'd like to try as well.
Are you going for hearing loss?
Did you ever find a solution to this?

I suffer from hearing loss (too many Metallica and Korn concerts back in the day) - because of this so-called handicap, I'm interested if there are any solutions or even alternative, suggested wireless earbuds that would accommodate my needs.
The earbuds I currently have are Plantronics Backbeat Go 2 - excessively low volume.

There is nothing that can be done. The volume for Bluetooth is not controlled via kernel as other sounds are. The limitation is hardware unfortunately.
I too have plantronics back beat go and they are very low. Other BT buds may be a little louder but don't expect miracles.
The only thing you can do is go wired. Sorry to break this to you.

Boost Headphone Volume?

I got some new over the ear headphones and I have to turn up the media volume up all the way but it isn't loud enough. I don't really want to carry around an external amp at the gym.
I'm not sure of the impedance of the headphones. I've seen that there's a mod on here to increase the volume but does it decrease the audio quality? What options do I have?
I'm on XPower 3.0.

Is there anyway to increase the volume of the usb Dac and Usonic headphones as they seem much quieter than my nexus 6p. I am in the EU so I believe there is a limit on volume?
So best rom for audio? Or should I just root it?

Headphone Sound Quality

Hi Guys,
So got my magic 2 and I'm pretty impressed for the most part. I'm just a little let down with the max volume on the device through either wired earphones or Bluetooth earphones. Maybe I was a little spoiled with my rooted 6p but I'm finding myself downloading volume booster apps which increase the volume but also distort the sound as a result. Does anyone else notice a lower than normal max volume on this device? Would official honor earphones make a difference?
Cheers
