Hello everyone, i own a Galaxy Note N5100 and i notice that its volume (mainly speaking for headphones) is too low, it doesn't compare to any other devices that i used for music. And i suppose this is not a problem only with the N5100, my older Galaxy S3 also had this problem.
Feels like the volume is capped at 1/4 of what it supposed to be able to get. I wonder what makes the android sound volumes being so low and also what could i make to possibly fix this? I know that those popular apps from the playstore doesnt do the job very well. Is there any way i can mod this phone to fix this? Maybe it could be something ROM related?
Anyway thanks for reading

Hi. I've recently noticed that the volume on my A510 is very low. I tried to watch a football game on WatchESPN recently, and the sound was barely audible at all. My wife has a Galaxy Tab 10.1, and the volume is much better. I had an A500, and its volume was much better. This seems unusually low. Any thoughts, solutions, or similar situations? Thanks

There are some apps which are capable of boosting the volume.
Click the following URL:

Some apps are free, some cost money, some require root permissions. See for yourself which work and which don't.
Good luck.

Which ROM are you on? If you're on CM10, that's expected since Dolby sound gets disabled in CM10.
If you're on stock rom, make sure that Dolby is enabled by going in settings >> Dolby Mobile.
Volume+

I have used Volume + by Meltus on 2 different cell phones and my A700. Works well (definitely improves volume) and very customizable.
It also might just be WatchESPN itself, rather than the tab. I tried to use it last week on my 510 and got almost no sound, when other apps have plenty of volume.

Hi,
The volume of my Galaxy Note n8000 is too low. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

Easy, install volume+ app. It will increase the volume as much as you desire. Be careful though, several reports of people blowing their speakers, on other devices, from them carelessly increasing volume like crazy..lmao
I use speaker boost

My note is nice and loud and II really haven't seen too many, if any, posts about volume issues. Couple be a possible bad unit. I'd try going down to a Best Buy to seem how one of the floor models compare.
Thanks for the replies everyone
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all the replies everyone. My galaxy note tab sounds fine in normal situations, but in really noisy environments it hardly audible. So i dont think there is any problem with the device. I installed the equalizer app and the volume has definitely become louder though it reduces the audio quality.

Does anyone on these sound boost apps works on JB?

Volume+ works great on JB. I have it installed on my Nexus 7 running the latest build of JB. Which is 4.1.2. Also have it installed on my note. Volume already sounded loud but I wanted it a little bit louder. Works great and didn't decrease the sound quality at all for me.
Another tip, if you don't want to use an 3rd party app, is to go into music player. Then open up settings. It has different sound profiles you can change to make it sound better to your liking. I keep it on auto for me.

The paied version of Volume+?
The sound(earphones) playing movies on planes are too low.
hi guys just purchased w007 iphone copy running ics 4.0.4 and i must say that its pretty awesome but i've got a problem and need abit of help. the other day i noticed my in call volume was really low even on the highest settings. did a factory reset and everything but it is still the same, the media speaker is fine so i can make calls on speakerphone but the earpiece is barely audible. it was fine before and then just really low, thinking its some fault with the speaker. looked into getting a app to boost incall volume past the manufacturer settings and found out volume+ would do it but only if the phone was rooted which i did (and was quite easy to do). however even though the phone is rooted the call volume option (which ive seen in screen shots) is not present even though ive granted volume+ superuser permissions. so im thinking you actually need to be running a custom rom to get this option. now this is a copy chinaphone so info about it is pretty hard to find so i was wondering if anyone knew what customs roms are out for it and actually how to flash one to it. even better if anyone knows how to increase the call volume maybe by build prop or some other app or other way that would be awesome.
Is anyone else finding their call volume seems pretty low, my older s4 seemed to have been a little louder at full volume, but when full on the s6 im struggling to hear people sometimes.
Also, there is an option called 'extra volume' and when i press this on, there doesnt seem to be any difference in volume?

I noticed this too
Wow I expected the S6 to be revolutionary phone, but it's just full of problems...so dissapointed right now, hoping some smart developer will make a perfect rom for this device one day..
Bump
i agree, can anyone figure out how to make it louder? perhaps through mixer path?
I have a gsm galaxy s6 in the UK
To me the loudspeaker output volume is low, certainly lower than the first one i had and im wondering if its anything to do with a recent update.
To explain further, when the s6 was first released i had one of each (s6 and s6 edge) and the handset was on 5.0.1
I was not entirely convinced by the handset and decided to return them and go back to my iphone 6. One of the things i was really impressed with on the handset though was the speaker output. I remember this particularly as it really stood out and i can remember that when playing music or watching youtube that even on 1/2 volume it seemed as loud as any other phone i had used with plenty in the bank to go higher.
Anyway, after a couple of weeks i decided to leave the iphone and get another s6. This phone was purchased sim free and came to me fully updated to 5.0.2 (no further updates available)
I find now that with this phone the volume seems really low and find myself playing it often above the 3/4 mark and not far off full.
I know that these type of things are quite subjective but i am certain the earlier ones i had were much louder.
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed this or could give some suggestions as to anything that may cause the volume to be lower for any reason.
thanks
Really only just me them?
Not just you, i also posted a similar post, i am also in the uk, i have an s6 that come with 5.0.2 already on it and my call volume seems a lot lower on max compared to my older s4.
I noticed theres a setting when making calls that says 'extra volume' when you press this, it doesnt seem to do anything?
For me its the loudspeaker volume when playing movies or YouTube etc.
