Volume Hack - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone. Hoping to get some advice on here as I'mstarting to pull my hair out.
I'v got a Galaxy Note 10.1 Gt-N8010 running KitKat 4.4.2 and I have rooted the device.
My problem is that I cannot increase the speaker volume on the unit. The volume is significantly poor when trying to watch a film.
I've tried using various apps including volume+ but none of them seem to work.
Does anyone have an idiots guide on how to hack the settings within the unit.
I have tried using ES File Explorer but could not gget into settings.
Thanks

You mean that you cannot change the volume up or down?

[Q] Low Speaker volume w/Modem Switch Galaxy Tab

(sorry this is a repost since the first thread was not in the right forum)
Hi
As you can tell I am new here. In fact I am new to Flashing/ROMing/etc...
Yet last night i read over quite a bit of stuff and this morning I did the following:
1) flashed my Galaxy Tab (t-mobile) to the Euro firm. Got the phone working. Speaker Volume was good, and I could make calls and hear the other side quite clearly.
Then I got a little brave...
2) I successfully installed the latest OVERCOME ROM, everything seems to be working fine.
3) I followed ROTO's modem switch and got that working.
Now my problem is speaker volume has changed dramatically (while using the Phone ONLY). I can barely hear the other side. This is in comparison to when I first flashed it to the Euro firm.
Is there something that I missed? is there some type of setting that controls the phone in-call volume (internally)?
UPDATE: I was playing with the volume while on a call, and it seems at 75% is the loudest, then as you increase it beyond that, the actual volume gets lowered dramatically.
Pls advise.
Thank you in advance
Note: and YES I had the in-call volume all the way up.

[Q] CyberGR-MOD v.12 + Air Kernel v4.2... problem with in call volume slider

As you can see, i'm new to this forum. Until now i've used a Samsung Galaxy Spica and got my custom roms from samdroid..another forum rules...
I own a Nexus S, flashed with CyberGR-MOD v.12 + Air Kernel v4.2.
The first problem is the in call volume. I've searched the forum and did not found a similar solution to other samsung phones (service mode), only programs that doesn't seem to work.
What have i noticed is that, when i'm making a call, the volume slider doesn't go to the last step. Using the buttons i can go only to the 5 of 6 steps and if i try to move the slider using the touchscreen, the slider is jumping to te 6th step and then back to the 5th. And the volume is to low... Can this be repaired somehow?
Another question...Can i play videos encoded as mkv 720p??? With no overclocking, the image is laggy? and if i overclock to 1200 or 1400 mhz (i've tried even with 15mV voltage increase) my phone is freezing. Am i trying the impossible or what? The overclocked phone is freezing only when i try to watch the 720p mkv.
Thanks for your answers and excuse my english.
the in call volume bug is a known bug of aokp rom which cybergr rom has parts of. I think the workaround is just to unlink volumes in sound settings
unlink volumes in sound settings

...that's the solution for jumping slider.
What about some hack to boost in-call volume? Meltus, the creator of Volume+, made a program that addes a line to build.prop making up to 100 steps to volume slider. Is there any code that could be added to build.prop or somewhere else to boost in-call volume?
I've found that with other than Air Kernel mkv720p videos doesn't crash the phone, but the image is also laggy. At least the phone stays on.
Another problem...or not...
WIFI turns itself ON. I've spotted this behavior using trinity kernel, who torned on wifi or data. Now i'm using matr1x and, from time to time, i see that wifi is turned on when i wake up the phone.
It's true that i saw this behavior when i was around known hotspots, but still, maybe i don't want wifi to turn on by itself...
Any solution?

[Q] In-call volume

Hi everyone,
I unfortunately broke the button for the up-volume on my Omnia 7. Tried to remove the case and fiddle with button but nothing happened. I think it s the connection.
I found very useful apps such as Volume slider by Purushoth and Dllimportproject by fiinix.
Those are very useful for the master volume.(i.e. ringtones and music player)
But my problem is, when in a call, those apps do not change the in-call volume.
Mine is unfortunately at 1/10 right now and if I click on the down button then I am in trouble.
I found a solution which is to hard reset the phone but it is not always convenient to back up then reinstall everything and it only goes back to 6/10.
I read on a thread that someone used headphones to change the in-call volume but that did not work for me (beats headphone).
I emailed Purushoth and asked him about it and he said he would look into it but I have not heard back from him. Hopefully he can manage to tweak his app.
I m just wondering if anyone had the same problem and manage to fix it by any other way. Or if anyone would know how to get into the in-call volume ?
Thank you in advance,
Joesmaker
Go to HKCU\Control Panel\Phone and change the key "Vol" 0000FFFF (65535) is 10/10

Thank you so much. back at 10/10
You re a hero.
I ve been dying for a solution for months
always glad to help
I suggest you message the author of the Volume Control app so that the fix (tweaking that registry value) can be added to the app too; probably other people have this problem. Very good find!
Ok I ve just emailed the author of volume slider and told him about the tweak.
Thanks

volume too low on KatKiss ROM

Since I've flashed TeamEOS or KatKiss I noticed that the volume in many apps (youtube, games etc) is very low.
Is there a way to boost the volume?
I've already tried KAT Tool with max profile but volume is only a little bit louder and "volumebar-overlay" (displayed on screen when changing volume) does not work proberly (installed latest KAT Tool on KatKiss 225).

What signal volume number from the Kat app do you see? Is it max at 63 or lower? Is it lower than press more times at volume up until it is at 63 or the sound level you want.
Speakers showing 63/63

Did you tap the FM34 DSP Reinit button in Kat App?. That help me sometimes when I have the same issue

Seems to be a litte bit better now. Is this a permanent solution?
Is there maybe a better solution?
Hopefully I have soon 10 posts to submit the problem with the volume bar in dev-thread.
Al
Hi Al, If you look at the KAT KISS and KAT App threads in the dev section (Yes, I know it's a lot to read) you will see that this is something that comes up periodically. I believe that the general consensus is that if the DSP looses it's mind and volume drops then just re-init and off you go. It only takes me a second to reinit. It usually happens to me when I'm watching video and I pause and go do something else then go back to video.
As soon as I have 10 posts I'll request that the audio-settings will be integrated in katkiss-rom.
BTW: do you have the volumebar-overlay-problem too after installing kat app?
Al
Some off topic: are the captchas on posting only for new members or are they needed all the time?
Found the answer of my offtopic question: Also, you must fill out a CAPTCHA in order to post as long as you have fewer than 10 posts.

Hi, Not sure what you are referring to with the volume bar overlay problem? Can you be a bit more specific? There are several small idiosyncrasies with the whole volume thing. Thanks

After installing KAT APP the volumebar overlay (small displayed bar when changing volume) does not work proberly.
No matter if I change volume up or down the bar jumps everytime back to 100%.

I unchecked the cascade button. I get about 10 or 11 different levels from 0-63, just not all 63. I had issues with Talk/Hangout notifications muting it when if get a message.

I've tried to set the volume to 0 (according to kat app).
In range 0 - 12 the volumebar works fine but kat app displays 0 in notificationbar.
All levels above 11 or 12 are displayed correctly in notification bar but volumebar shows 100%.
Al
The reason for this is that the Android volume bar only has 12 positions and cannot be easily redone for 63.
This is one reason why I turned off the Cascasde levels. I still get the same loudness of volume, but in 12 increments (levels on the KAT 0-63 scale):
0
5
10
15
20
25
31
36
42
47
52
58
63
And then the Android Volume Bar works "normal" where it is all the way to the right when it is loudest. I do not feel the need to have 64 different levels of volume myself.
I also don't need all 63 levels in volumebar.
Where can I disable the cascade levels?
Al
In the KAT app, Audio Tab.
Untick the box that says something about cascading the analog and digital levels.
Looks good - I'll try this.
Al
Yup. Have that "issue". I just got used to it and use me ear to judge volume level. Sorry but I dont know of a fix.

It's my understanding all custom ROM's have the low volume issue...and the KatKiss/Katapp helps alleviate some of it. But even so, not as loud as the original/native TF101 rom. Unchecking Cascade helped eliminate the confusion and sudden volume increaments, but still kinda low when compared to native.
However, now one of my speakers has completely died....after limping along for many months by a well placed finger flick on the speaker to bring it back.
So now it's headset for me, or the new external Bluetooth speaker i bought a couple days ago for $34

I've tried googling tf101 speaker replacement...just seemed kinda lengthy a wait for the parts delivery and a price that could be put to better use saving for the next tablet.

My TF had a DOA speaker when I got it, I bought the replacement set from asusparts.eu, it took a long time to arrive, more like months than weeks iirc, but it got here and its been working since
http://www.asusparts.eu/en/partfinder/Asus/Pad/Eee%20pad/TF101#Speaker
Just checked the site and it looks like they either have none in stock or are not selling speakers now
The speaker would work when I pressed on the tiny cone, so looked to me as if the wire had snapped from the coil somewhere inside the speaker
EDIT -
£30 but will likely arrive a fair bit quicker

I love this ROM but ever since I upgraded it it won't recognize my headphones. I want to know what I can do to fix this cause I really love the ROM And don't want to flash nothing else on my tf 101

increasing the volume

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
