its really to low to listen music!! i have the original rom fr of the kaiser help please
Not loud enough, how about the earphones?
Assuming you've mastered the volume slider or jog wheel on the side (see the instruction manual for further details on that) and it's already at maximum, the next step is to change the device you're listening through. I use the Kaisers speaker to output the TomTom Navigator 6 instructions when cycling around with the phone mounted on my bicycles handlebars, thats loud enough for me even in most traffic. If I plug in the original earphones though, when playing music on the train, I can get it very loud (unpleasantly so). If it's just the speaker volume you want to crank up, I suspect thats a hardware limitation of the tiny speaker and you'd risk damaging it even if there was a way to increase the signal going to it. Personally, I'm pleased the speaker isn't 'to' loud, it makes it less likely that yobs will want to create noise pollution with their 'music' from these devices on public transport!

I agree with you the volume is low period, either it be from headphones or internal speaker. Instead of wasting your time like Flying KiWi (dude, whats with your post, you just typing junk to get a post count up?) I will offer some suggestions.
I use TCMP (or CorePlayer) to play mp3's and there's an actual volume booster in the options. in core player to find this option, goto menu, tools, preferences, select page, audio, adjust Preamp accordingly.
Give it a shot, I think you will be pleased..
I Agree TCPMP has an excellent Audio / Preamp volume Increase that works excellent. Sure would be great if someone could create an app that would do the same to anything you use.
I use Resco Radio and the volume is too low at Max. I work in a factory where there's grinding going on with the compressor kicking in every few mins.
I end up having to switch to TCPMP to get enough volume to hear. I've Tried HTC Equalizer / Booster but it does nothing. Maybe someone could tweak it so it Does Work?

Well, are you sure your mp3 songs have been ripped to a good volume? Do they play at normal/loud levels in any other MP3 player (I'm assuming they're encoded in mp3 format) It's no use trying to crank up the volume with HTC Equaliser/Booster etc if your original song files are of low volume/quality...Then you'd have to use a Sound Normaliser/Booster like MP3 Gain on your PC etc to first boost and normalise the volume before you try and squeeze your device for every volume gain you can get...
i owned the htc wisard before and with the bridage_gain_headset.cab i had no pb to fix the volume up but by now i cant listen music without hearing everything around me :'(

I understand your post but I was talking about streaming radio from Resco Radio. Has nothing to do with .mp3 files.

Do you have that .cab? Can you post it? would like to fool with it. Thanks.
this is the bridage
Thanks! I'll let you know how or if it works out.
okay thx
Just one question. What exactly does this .cab do?
Its tiny -- only 1 kb. I installed it but not sure what it does. Does it just kick up the volume / registry setting?
I opened a few media players and it does seems louder but not sure. I will fool around with it more later.
Please Advise. Thanks.
yes change the registry setting..

Apologies, I totally misread your post. I use Resco Radio as well and my volume is OK there and I actually have to turn it down quite a bit...What ROM are you running? Maybe let's start there...I'll post my Resco Radio settings (screenshot) later if that helps...
yes maybe its because of this rom i run the originale french rom from htc...

Hi, I'm just using the Stock Rom TMO HTC Wing. Only thing I've done is change the pagepool to 4mb, which improved things alot. Resco Radio volume is fine except when I'm at work and all the machinery and compressors are running, which is like all day. I just need a little bit more, not much. TCPMP does it with preamp volume boost.
I can change the knob to one that has 11 instead of 10.

Well, you do know stock ROMs have been proved (SPB Benchmarks and others) to perform sub-optimally compared to "cooked" ones in many respects (file transfer speed, write speed etc inter alia)...I'm not suggesting you go out and start "flashing" cooked ROMs just to solve this but maybe a different stock ROM to start with...coz we're really trouble-shooting here to find out if it's a hardware (HTC Wing + resco Radio) or software (stock sound drivers, TCMP application etc) related limitation...

Yeah I hear ya. The only reason I don't wanna flash it is because its Warrantied by T-Mobile for one year. They've already replaced it two times. If I flash it, I'm on my own. After one year is up, yes, I'll start messing with it.
My Old Audiox 5600 worked much better once I flashed it from WM 2003 to WM5.
What about max level via a2dp?

Does anyone know if this affects overall sound volume. I listen to music on my Tilt via A2DP and the sound volume is so low it's almost unusable.
On my Compact V, I was quite looking forward to using the radio. But whilst outdoors it is barely audible.
When I play the inbuilt MP3 player, the volume is much louder. I’ve tried various stations, but they are all equally low in volume. Reception seems to be fine. I only listen to BBC Radio4 (sorry!).
Any ideas?

The radio has it's own volume, just use the volume control on the side while the FM radio is on and displaying.

Unfortunately that doesn't help either, volume is far too low. I've been looking for a solution all over the place already too... found nothing that worked.

What happens on the display when you use the volume buttons? Because I have installed a cab on my phone which caused the volume control in the FM radio to stop working.
Yes i am surprised that nobody talk about this problem already.
It is true that the fm radio is low.
And no the radio does not have its own volume.
It is the same as the system volume.
In order to be able to hear something you must set the volume almost to the maximum.
When you receive a sms, it rings so loud into your headphone.
I tried to HD tweak but no result......

My phone's FM radio has it's own separate volume. Like I said before, that it's possible that you installed something that caused the seperate volume to stop working.

Before I installed anything on y phone, the volume had been low. I have installed tomtom7, however i dont think that is the cause.
Like I say, when I play an mp3 file, the volume is loud. At first I thought it may be to do with the reception, but all the stations are the same (there is a marginal difference is the reception is very good).
Thanks

Try this metod that works on my D2
with a reg editor modify:
HKLM\Software\HTC\FMRadio\FMPlayer
Dword: "Volume" change the value that you see, with this in decimal"4294967295" save and go on FmRadio...works? ok thats all for me naturally.

Mine was set to 43260 (Dec), I put your value and started the FM Radio, but the max volume did not increase
I quit FM Player and noticed the Volume RegKey was changed to 6180 (Dec) , obviously after I quit FM Radio.
.
Ok...6180 that's happen also fo me, but now work normally.
you can only try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534362 is the only chance you have to encreas the overal audio.
I admit that is a bad audio bug also for ring sound, i mean, i hope solve in a future rom revision.

hey,
i got the same problem in several different roms. i put provided value and it did make worse for me.
has anyone resolved problem with quiet fm radio?
regards,
Mine is still low, not found a solution.
I totally agree its very low
I recently upgraded to 826X ROM which basicly brought my old X1 back to life and I am very happy with it. Radio rom is 1.17.x I even tried with 1.14.x
But, for some reason, the volume in Radio is very low compare to volume I can get from, for example, CorePlayer. The signal level is OK, 4, 5 bars and there is no static heard, just clear reception. I can listen to it using headphones, but when turning it to phone's speaker I need to be in a very quite eviroment. But even on headphones, I can get much more out of CorePlayer...
Tried the audio booster that came with the ROM, no difference. Is there some setting in registry or anywhere, to change the volume of radio or what to do?
Oh and yea, I am one of those weirdos that listen to radio a lot, instead of my own playlists
i also would like to know...the speakersound with audio booster cab is good when i use windows media player,tcpmp or other programms but when i have a phone call,the speaker sound is not very loud or clear...any chance to change that?
well, here is something that is worth mentioning ... check on your screen. there is a button that looks like speakers with a "NO" sign on it ... like the don't cross sign. press that and see if it changes anything.
When I first got my phone music and youtube videos were really loud with the built in speakers. So much so that I had to turn the volume down a little bit for comfort. Now when I make sound it starts out very loud but quickly softens drastically. Like something is trying to auto normalize the sound to a much lower volume.
What bugs me is it used to work great. I'm on the same firmware version and such that I was on before.
Is anyone else having volume issues with their built in speakers?

I'm experiencing this too. I feel like it was designed this way. But I want to see some documentation.
Maybe you're just adjusting to the volume?? Kind of like when a fast car doesn't feel fast anymore.
Are you on a custom rom?
I'm on Stock ROM.
I know it isn't me just getting used to it. When I play some music it is really loud and vibrates my phone noticeably. After about 1 or 2 seconds though it quiets and my phone stops vibrating as much and I have a hard time discerning voices in the sound.
If I pause the video for a few seconds and start again the same thing happens. really loud then quieting.
If I turn down the video all the way then turn it up all the way fast the same things happens. I can feel the vibrations of the sound then they lessen and quiet down.
Interesting. I tried it this morning after a fresh charge and it works great now. I wonder if previously I was always testing at night when my battery was low. Perhaps this is some kind of built in battery savings scheme? When I was experiencing the issue I verified that Battery Savings mode was turned off. But perhaps this is something that auto happens when the battery is low?
I'll have to try again tonight.
I'm starting to have the same issue. Posting here for any updates, and I'll update as well if I figure out what's going on.
Me to guys....I thought I was going nuts today... Every roms got quiet audio and I'm just like wtf...so I flash stock images and STILL its quiet...I'm just wondering if its some kinda power save feature.
i've been looking through the mixer_paths.xml file to see if i can find headphones and speaker values to increase to increase volume and this mixer_paths file is different than what i'm used to with samsung and LG phones. i'm probably missing some values to see because i normally use 920 text editor but that app currently isnt working with android 5.0. has anyone found the values to change the increase volume?
I have the same issue. If i reboot the phone everything sounds great then shortly after the volume drops and its difficult to hear things. This happens evem during calls while using speaker phone. I've looked in all the settings and can not find anything to do with this. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank goodness I'm not the only one! I have this exact issue as well.
So this actually worked on my N6 maybe it will work for yours. After a reboot problem remains. I applied small pressure evenly to the speakers with my fingers and bam problem gone. I seriously hope we don't have bad hardware. Hope this helps you guys as well.
https://forums.motorola.com/posts/add203215b?commentId=837982 If you see Moto's Official forum lot of other people are having this same Issue
Add me to the list thought I was going crazy too
I'm pretty sure it's a software issue. On mine, the volume does the normalization thing, but if I switch orientations it goes back to full volume before dying down again. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.
Same issue here. Thought I was loosing my mind. The volume goes down tremendously after starting music via the speakerphone after about 1 or 2 seconds. I have completely reset my phone and toggled the power saving setting and I'm still having this issue. Getting very annoyed.
Same issue here. My battery was down to 4% and the volume started getting lower some times.
Also it seemed like turning the device (display rotation?, gyro sensor?) had to do with it.
I also hear some noise (crackling) when the phone is at full volume and it's not playing music.

Same here with the normalize issue...tempted to send my nexus 6 back to motorola but it was so hard to get this phone
Cant believe google has yet to address this... I hope its a software fix coming.. I cant even really judge the audio bc i cant play anything at max volume smfh

I think it's a software issue. Whenever I notice the phone's volume is lower than it should be, I press volume up and down repeatedly then it goes back to normal. Gets annoying though.
Anyone found a solution for this or it just is what it is? Also notice the volume increases when I rotate the landscape view..then normalizes lower after a few seconds...
I've hard reset....flashed a fresh copy of 5.0.1 still no solution? Could this be a hardware issue?

Hi,
there is a way or settings to raise the volume of this phone ?
Both headphones and speaker have low volume.
If someone has a solution, please write it down.
Thanks.

If you have rooted your phone and found out a way to change the SELinux to permissive (I suggest using this and putting it through terminal emulator), you should use Viper4Android to somewhat amplify the speakers and greatly increase the volume threshold for headphones. Best of luck if you try this.

Hi,
I have already installed Viper4Android, but it does not amplify much the volume, neither in the speaker, neither in headphones, it changes a bit the quality, but it does not raise the volume as I wish...
Thanks anyway for the answer.

Hey guys.
I'm new to Huawei devices, this is my first, but on my previous phones (LGs and Samsungs) I could edit mixer_paths.xml for an increase of volume. I have root already, but I couldn't find that file or any similar to modify... Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?
A little up, maybe someone comes up with another idea? Still would need help with increasing volume, please
Hello to everybody,
i thought i should share my unsuccessful attempts of getting more headphone volume with the P9 plus with you.
After recognising that it seems there is no software solution at the moment i ordered several different
headsets with a higher sensitivity than my former used.
The headphones i used during the last few years where really cheap ones which should have 95/96 SPL/V.
I informed a little and learned that every 10 SPL/V more gives you the impression of twice as much volume.
Next i bought the KZ ATE wich are stated to have 118 SPL/V and thought: nice i can kill my ears fast now...
I tried them and did not get any improvement at all. In my opinion they don't sound better and they are also not
playing louder. OK, cheap china-in ear, lets try another...
Now i bought the Sennheiser cx 2.00i which are more than three times the price and a well known brand. They are stated to have 119 SPL/V.
What should i say? They are not playing any significant louder.
There are even inears with 125 SPL/V but at the moment i don't think this will change anything.
Do i miss something?
Do you have a solution in the meantime?
best regards,
Henning
SPL has to do with the maximum decibels provided by the headphones, BUT did you look at how many ohms the headphones have? The impedance (measured in ohma) determines the power needed to.. Well, to power those speakers inside your headphones
As fat as I know, most phones can only give a decent enough power to 16 and 32ohm headphones, and not to anything above that...
I miss my LG and Samsung days... It was so easy to just modify the mixer_paths.xml files to get higher volume
