Custom App for PDC Volume - General Questions and Answers

Hi there,
I use an xtrons PE98MTVPL with android 8 stock rom in my Volkswagen Passat B7 from 2014. It all works fine except the volume is not decreased when I activate the PDC by only pushing the button. When I drive backwards the rear view camera ist activated and the PDC also and the volume gets low. But when I drive forward the volume is set back to normal so I can't hear my front PDC. Is there a possibility to use the can bus signal for PDC activated or something else to lower the volume?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Samsung JACK SGH-i637 GPS Volume, bandsel.exe

Hi guys,
I just upgraded from the BlackJack II to Jack. All is good except for a couple of annoying things.
- Garmin XT volume is way too loud. At 20% volume which is the lowest setting in the software I have to cover the speaker to muffle the navigation voice, otherwise its just too loud.
- There is no bandsel.exe in the Jack. With the i617 (BJII) I used to be able to lock the phone in to either GSM (850) or 3G (WCDMA). Now I have to use AdminSettings. It gives me very limited options. When I choose GSM it sticks to GSM, but if I choose WCDMA, it just says "No Signal". If I set it to Auto the phone keeps switching back and forth btw GSM and 3G when I am in a poor reception area.
Does anyone know any tricks or suggestions on how to get the GPS volume and the GSM/3G modes under control as it was on the i617?
Well, I just found a solution to one of my i637 problems (not having BandSel.exe)
I did some research and found that I can create a shortcut to *#2263# via a specific switch to a TestMode.exe. Here's what you need to do:
- Create a Shortcut "TestMode.lnk" and put it in the Start Menu. Inside the shortcut file it should read:
23#"\Windows\TestMode.exe" 0x1016
Once you run that shortcut it is the same as executing *#2263# from your phone. This finally allows to lock into either GSM or 3G or Auto. AdminSettings also works but is not as flexible frequency-wise.
Weird, I use GXT as well but my voume is not as loud as I like. (2 kids, radio, dvd player, ect)
Mine has the in program volume set to 100, and is linked to the phones volume as well
is yours linked to your phone volume too, and if so do you turn the phone down too.
Just an Idea. Hope it helps.

Hmm.. I just went into my GXT and checked the Settings. I don't see where you can link the volume to system settings. All I get under Settings >> Audio is the volume control in 20% increments. Its the same as using the system volume - looks like they are linked already. How do you change the link to have them controlled independently?

Topaz as TomTom GPS for use on Motorbike -- Sound Problem

Hey Guys,
what I am planing to do is to use my Topaz for navigation on my bike.
Generally it works as I want it to work but I have one problem left. The sound is not as loud as it should be.
What I did so far:
- Install TomTom 7 on my Topaz
- Install a bluetooth headset in my helmet
- Redirect system sound to BT headset via BTA
- Set system volume to max as well as TomTom volume
So far everthing works great but when I am riding my bike its pretty hard to understand anything. So I have to get the sound louder somehow.
The Tool AudioBooster just says "No Headset Connected" when I am trying to start it.
Any idea how I could boost the sound output via BT?

Unzip attachment and copy to your Windows folder overwriting original and your max volume level will be increased.
BTW, this is a common question and solution is readily available with a simple google search. No need to open a new thread for this.
thanks for your reply. The file you provided increases the volume via. the Topaz speaker and via. (cable) headset a lot.
Unfortunately the sound via bluetooth stays the same or is increased a little but i cant recognice a difference...
any other ways?

I don't use BT so I cannot confirm if it increases with this file but opening the .cvs show settings for BT, so I would assume it should increase BT as well.
I have an Extra loud one if you want to try it, however you will need to adjust your speakers to a lower level to avoid distortion.
Please let me know if you notice an increase in BT vol.
still cannot recognize any signifficant change in volume via BT
Thanks for the confirmation.
Personally I think BT allows for too much background noise and your best option would be earbuds to cancel excess noise...
Unless you're on a Harley, then there's no way to hear anything but your motor...
Sorry man...
damn, the idea was so great and everything works perfect except this ****ing BT headset - whose integration into the helmet was hard work btw...
There HAS to be a solution. Still don´t know how but i will get this thing working somehow...
Maybe I have to tune the hardware... a better speaker, a small amp or somewhat ^^
Anyway, if someone has an idea how to boost the sound, please let me know!

[Q] Volume control of external bluetooth speaker

Hi all,
playing around with my new Nexus 5 I recognized a problem to control the volume of my external bluetooth loudspeaker.
First, the speaker connected normally as it used to with my GNex (JB 4.3). But with the Nexus 5 the volume seems to stay at maximum only. Pushing the volume buttons +/- of the phone shows up the volume control and I can see the volume going up and down. However, the speaker stays at max. volume independant of the volume setting.
Can somebody else please check this?
I updated my Nexus 7 to KitKat also. And... the same issue here. Perhaps my speaker has a problem?
Thanks
By the way... the speaker is a Philips SBT50
It's not the speaker... with the GNex everything works fine :-/

I have the same issue using a Jabra Play. I'm able to pull the volumne sliders to the min and it will stay there, however one click up, and it goes to max.
BeerGang .4 and Franco r14 but I think it did it on stock also...
google has some work that needs to be done with BT and KitKat.
i thankfully dont have this issue with my little BT speaker, but i have serious High Volume issues with my LG Tone+ BT headset....it is definingly loud at the lowes volume.
I use Bluetooth in my car and with the LG Tones (700) and I've tested it with the 730 tone+ and no issues. Bluetooth headset and I don't have this problem.
With my jbl speaker i habe the same Problem with my n5. Not possible to adjust volume via Bluetooth. When connected to LG sound bar volume control works well
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
This is not a Nexus 5 issue. It is Kit Kat issue on all devices that use the default Google Bluedroid Bluetooth stack, meaning Nexus devices and Google Play versions (other devices running a modified stack may not be affected).
Supposedly, it is an extension to Bluetooth AVRCP 1.3 that enables Bluetooth audio devices to directly control Android's system volume. It seems some genius thought two independent volume levels (headphone volume and handset bluetooth level) was too confusing for folks. Clearly they did not think about (or test) that some Bluetooth audio devices with their own volume controls might default to a very high or low level, and control of only the handset's bluetooth level would not provide sufficient range of adjustment.
So once again we have Goofle googing up bluetooth in Android. Please share your disappointment in the following threads so that we might see a fix ASAP. Guessing they are facing law suits for hearing damage if it is not addressed quickly.

Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Basic low volume problem

Hello!
I've noticed lately that my basic 2 earphones' volume is really low. Before I usually had them at around 70% volume because anything more was too loud. Now I have them on 100% and it's like they are playing on half the volume. My phone is Xiaomi Mi 10T 5G
There have been no recent changes to my device nor it's settings, haven't updated either so it's the same operating system as before (Android version: 11 RKQ1.200836.002) (MIUI Global 12.5.4 Stable)
I also want to mention that my device is unlocked and rooted using this exact guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...tom-rom-working-on-xiaomi-mi-10t-pro.4246339/
Things I've tried so far:
Restarting my phone
Restarting the earphones
Hard reseting the earbuds
Reseting all the bluetooth connections on my phone
Changing my Region (I tried USA, India and Andorra. Didn't change anything)
Tried Disabling Absolute Audio (There was no such setting on my developer options)
Tried changing the Bluetooth Codec (As soon as I scrolled down a bit it was reseting to "System Default")
Volume Booster Apps (They make the sound terrible and still the volume is not as high as originally)
MIUI's Sound Optimization (Adjust sound to earphones made the sound slightly better but didn't change the volume at all)
I also thoroughly cleaned the earbuds (To make sure there wasn't anything physically blocking them) as well as my ears (To make sure I wasn't losing my hearing)
I really can't understand why or how this happened and I can't seem to find a working solution no matter what... I really need your help on this one!
I don't mind tinkering with my phone and it's settings so any solution and I mean ANY solution would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for your time !
I fixed my mi 10 5g low speaker volume issue, u should give it a try by calibration of speakers
In settings>about phone>all specs, click on kernal version 5 times or more to open cit settings
Here u can test speakers, but to re calibrate click on 3 dots menu and goto additional setting find "calibrate speaker PA"

It worked. In my case, I headed to Bluetooth and ran the CIT test. It disconnected and on reconnecting, voilà! It worked. Thanks man
I tried everything, nothing worked. Turned out that earphones turn up volume by long tapping on earphone touch area.
Had the same issue with my Xiaomi Buds 4 Pro. Turned out, the buds have their own volume control (set to 50% by default), which must be assigned to double/triple taps via Xiaomi Earbuds app. By default, there was no way of controlling this "earphone-internal" volume. And the phone control operated within the 0%-50% range. Strange indeed.

Android auto call volume issue

Had the find x2 pro for a while now and has been fine but have noticed an issue with the volume of calls using android auto and how I'm picked up on the microphone of the car.
I was running a test as I'm with O2 and the signal kept dropping at certain points, so I plugged my work iPhone 12 Pro in and noticed that the call and music volume was much louder aswell as not dropping the call at any point in my ride home (Vodafone).
So I found my old phone from a few years ago which was a oneplus 6, let it run all the updates and plugged it into my car (71 plate suzuki swift) and low and behold it was the same volume levels as the iPhone and much easier to be heard on the microphone so its either a setting somewhere on the oppo or it is just crap with AA. On the oppo I have to set the call volume to 30(max) in the car but with the oneplus and iPhone it was 20.
I have tried turning off use high quality audio in the Bluetooth setting for the car and disabled absolute volume in the development options which has helped the volume of music but still way too quiet on the calls.
Any suggestions of any other settings to turn on/off as I'm close to binning the phone off
Might have sorted it.
Turning absolute volume back on has enabled media volume sync which was greyed out and now its much louder
Update, nope its not sorted so I'm gonna get rid of the phone come January
