Is it possible to increase the volume when you are using an bluetooth headset or bluetooth handfree ???
I find mine is not high enough, i'm sure there is something to do about this .
Thanks for thr help
I think so
I had the same problem. I ran the tweaks that Chainfire put together. There is one in there from a Chinese site deals with the BT pool settings. I tried it and it works fine. Here is the link to the tweaks. Good luck!!

I've done the BitPool tweak and I'm not sure it's made much of a difference.
The crackling interference has diminished but the low volume is still apparent.
I was only given the choice of High (Def/ADV) or Low BitPool by Kaiser Tweak. The Medium option is there but defaults to Low when selected.
I'll try it tommorow ...
But I thought about a reg patch or something like this ...

i really hope its me............. i hope its something i am doing wrong
i have heard virtually all HTC products...........and everyone has paired up just fine with my car bluetooth kit (BMW 3 series, 06 plate)
i eagerly awaited the Kaiser as the complete utopic device.............and i still think it is..............except..............THE WEEDY, TINNY, LOW VOLUME audio when on Handsfree !!!!!!!!!!!!
my carkit allows upto 4 devices to be memorised, so i have paired my HTC Touch, my HTC S710 and the TyTn II to it.......... the first 2 are perfect, rich, bassy sound with good volume that is perfectly audible even on the motorway.................
the TyTn II is VERY low, just about audible in stationary traffic and not at all bassy........... you remember those weedy HiFi systems that had about 5w Total output and could be bought for £29.99 !!!!!
i have seen a few posts saying the same thing........... i wonder if it is HTC's ROM that has this??? what about the T-Mobile users or perhaps the Dopod users??
i guess it is objective........... if you have never had a HTC device, you would have nothing to judge it by and therefore you are probably satisfied......but i have had LOADS of different devices, HTC and Mobile carrier branded, and none are as pathetic as the TyTn II on Bluetooth audio........... it is seriously stopping me using it as my main phone device which is such a big shame
PLEASE......... if anyone has any reg tweaks, rom upgrades, suggestions, ideas let me know.............. this £450 device is nowhere near as good as my wife's £30 mobile phone when it comes to audio...............
cheers
Mark
PS have to say, the audio is fine when you listen into the internal speaker or on speakerphone, so not sure it is the audio chip ???
Hi. I have the AT&T tilt and I noticed the same thing when using the audio section for playing mp3's via my Jabra BT620's when I play music using the built in wmp I cant quite get the volume I like so I switched to using CorePlayer 1.1.1 which has a preamp option in it and I can tell you for a fact there is nothing wrong with bluetooth volume when you do that. So it is probably going to be an easy software fix or even a simple registry hack to fix the volume issue.

that sounds good.............but as well as the Bluetooth volume its also the quality of the audio that i find hard to explain, no bass, just really tinny
but....... i would be happy to even increase the volume only at this stage!
Something to try: when bluetooth connection is active, tap the speaker icon on the taskbar of your today screen and turn the left hand volume slider up for more A2DP volume and the right hand volume slider up for more handsfree volume. I've tested the left hand slider & it works like a charm for hifi audio. On my 5 series, the audio sounded fine if I just bumped the volume using the steering wheel controls so I haven't tested the effect of the right hand slider on handsfree audio.

yep, bluetooth active, tap the icon, both sides up at maximum. place a call, turn 'in call' volume up to maximum, still really low and weedy !
tried the steering wheel volume and also the radio volume and still no joy!
as i said, all other devices are fine, just the tytn!
thanks for the suggestion though
maybe theres a problem with the bluetooth/wifi ariel as i have issues with my bluetooth totally failing when i turn on wifi
It works fine with the Lexus car kit. However the audio is mono and comes from the left channel only

if you dont want it in mono try PocketPlayer it will more then likely fix your problem. I love audible books, and this is now my default program for listening to them over bluetooth.
Definitely something wrong with mine. I think we should keep communicating with HTC until they fix it. My Blueant Z9 is unusable. No bass, and when I had the volume turned all the way up [both phone and headset], it almost broke my ear drum. Yet, I hardly can make out the sound coming from the ear set. I had no problem with 8525. It definitely has something to do with the antenna or the driver.
I am hoping HTC will respond to this asap.
I'm using a JawBone and what I notice, is when I use the headset to increase volume, the volume doesn't seem to actually be increasing, even tho the headset is giving acknowledgment beeps.
Seems I don't really have any control over the bluetooth headset volume. Nothing I can perceive anyway.

I can say that the fidelity on the bluetooth stereo is absolutely awesome on mine. I just used Coreplayer so I could boost the volume a tad using the preamp settings.
maybe each profile in your car kit stores unique settings for bass etc - have you tried fiddling with its settings?
There are several threads running about this. I have Jawbones and it appears that it's mainly the phone BT audio that has issues. I can use BT audio toggle and divert Coreplayer or SlingBox or iGuidance Nav sounds out to the Jawbone and they sound loud, bassy and clear.
I then place a call and the sound is wimpy and low. It's not and antenna problem, I use BT internetsharing and BT headsets all day long with this Kaiser with good range. It's "hopefully" a software issue between the phone's audio output to bluetooth. The phone's audio quality on the naitive phone's earpiece and speaker are very good quality, better quality, than my 8525 had.
It's frustrating, it's the only major flaw in the phone and HTC seems clueless in all the responses I've seen to date.
just in case anyone is interested, i have found a small improvement by doing the following:-
using a registry editor
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings
change USEJOINTSTEREO from 1 to 0
if nothing else, it just seems louder.....................
hope it helps

Perhaps this tweak could be included in Chainfire's utility?
Hi all,
Is there a registry tweak to increase the volume of the built-in speaker. I find that when the phone ringer is set to max volume I still find it quiet and often do not hear the phone ring.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I read somewhere that if you go to REG EDIT/HKEY_CURRENT_USER/CONTROL PANEL//SOUND CATAGORIES/RING......then to the setting "INITVOL"....then change the DWORD data to higher than it is (mine sits at 5...I jacked it to 15). Then soft-reset, and SUPPOSEDLY this makes the ring louder. There is also a setting right under this for "speaker", which was at 8 when I got mine...it is also now at 15.
Now, I honestly don't know how high this can be pushed, nor if it ACTUALLY does make it louder. I can say that i hear it fine...but man, if it does change it, it seems to change it very little...at least with the settings i use. I can also say it doesn't seem to have hurt anything. I asked around on the forums, and no one seems to have a better ansewer, nor can tell me if this is correct and just how high it can go. Hope this helps.
I seem to have the same problem any advice?
Volume
Reg tweaks is the answer...be careful tho....don't blow your speaker....you won't hear anything then
Thanks for the replies guys.
Hi there,
Does enyone know if it's possible to increase the overall volume of the ringtone and sms sounds...? (some kind of tweak mabye) I've got it on max but often I must really on the vibration to notice a sms or call. I often only hear the sound very soft.
Thanks..
ps i've the system volume only on 3 bar's orso, but that shouldn't effect the ringvolume should it??
I too have this issue, sound is pretty quiet to be honest. The answer i got was not helpful, basically said live with it.
yup, it isnt any where near as loud as my K-JAM (Wizard) was, but then my K-JAM was no where near as loud as my Ericsson P900 was, etc etc...
the speaker phone is an absolute joke, unless you are in a sound controlled ultra quiet room.
it seems that with every new phone and the speakers get worse rather than better.
I also find the diamond to be too quiet. I am a truck driver who drives refrigerated wagons. When parked on a bay I use my phone to watch films or listen to podcasts. But with the sound of the fridge I cannot hear anything. My old tytn 2 was spot on for sound. Any reg hacks or third party programs to boost sound? I have looked without any luck. I may have to find a mini usb speaker.
Use a player with pre-amp; for example, CorePlayer.
coreplayer`s volume doesn`t have any effect to windows sounds.
he asked for sms and speach cenversation loudness.
There is a registry hack Swiftblade uses. It's been posted in his ROM thread in the ROM section. That should do the trick
Edit: here's the link to the thread. You'll have to find the right posting yourself, though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408109
ok found it
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN]
"EAC_GAIN_EMBEDDED"=dword:77
but when i look at my registry there is no ...\AUDIOGAIN why ??
i think you have to create a entry
no change, still quiet
I am annoyed by the low ringtone and text message alert volume, too. I'm using the bElite 0.95 ROM and I tried adding that entry to the registry. It did not change anything.
Well if the registry key isn't there I would assume the HTC audiogain application isn't installed, so there's nothing to read that value. Hence making any changes futile.
My advise: try finding the cab for that app, or try with another (perhaps stock) rom
Before any of you SR members scold me - YES! I have searched myself and can't find an answer...
The volume, specifically in SPEAKERPHONE and EARPIECE is too low for my aging ears. I need it louder. I have tried th following:
the reg hack that changes the init vol and speaker levels from 4/1 to 10/10 - in wm 6.1, however, the init vol always reverts back to 4 ater a reboot or shutoff.
I cant seem to be ablte t permenently increase my volumes on ATT's new 6.1 Rom that I got from the HTC site - Help please...
Try this.
it's an audio boost patch that i downloaded from this forum.
And it works for me.
I'm using ATT Tile with WM6.1 HTC ROm
I hope this works for you too.
Hello, I am having this same problem , but only with the earpiece volume on the phone I posted a thread however no response...I would like to try the audio booster and or changing the settings from 4/1 to 10/10 can you guys give me a hand on how to complete those tweaks? My earpiece volume is soooo low on the phone I have to use speaker or a bluetooth headset just to use the phone. Thank You in advance.
Hi, all,
I have searched everywhere but only found solutions for other units/phones. I am aware of the appaling sound quality produced by A2DP (stereo bluetooth) on our beloved Diamond... Actually, HTC is not responsibe per se, since it looks that MS Bluetooth stack is the source of the problem.
I am used to listening to my music in A2DP, but quite frankly, listenning to the music in my Jabra BT-8010 and the Diamond is too painful for me... These horrible high pitched noises in the background are absolutely appaling.
I would like to know if there was any solution to tweak the Diamond and get better results. I know that Diamond Tweak could be used to arrange things, but I don't know how to do it yet.
Otherwise, I'll use my wired headset provided with the phone, but that's a pain too for someone like me who has abandoned wires for bluetooth since so long !
Any help would be greatly appreciated !
Cheers from south of France!
I know this problem. I was actually fighting with it for week and i've managed to get very decent audio quality.
That's what i've done:
1. Using advanced config in Bluetooth: audiogateway - on and powersaving for it on as well; bitpool - very high.
2. Install SRS WOW (absolute must have for music quality). My settings for my headphones:
Mode: headphones; SRS 3D effect - 60%; Center effect - 30%; Focus Level - 20%; Definition Level - 20%; TruBass Level - 100%; TruBass speaker Size - 60Hz; Input and Output Gain - 2% each.
3. Install DiamondTweak 0.5 and in volume control set:
Audio Booster - enabled
100db Sound Limitation - disabled
(after every soft reset those values go back to normal and you need to set them again, small price for excellent sound, there is also script on forum that set those regs everytime phone boots)
3. Play music go to Audiobooster and set high values for bass and quite high for treble.
And music sounds really good.
Thanks !
I'll give a try (actually doing it right now, phone is rebooting).
Well, what can i say, the end result is just a tad better, but I still hear these high pitched noises... On rock music, it's still awful. Much better with wired headsets...
I'll try with SRS WOW.
Thanks again !
Remember ab soft reset after installing srs wow (there is special version for diamond somewhere on this forum). ANd switching back AudioBooster after softreset.
If you'll still have problem try editing Input and Output Gain in srs wow. And make sure you chose headphones mode (not speakers). hOPE YOU'LL ENJOY IT.
Exactly the same problem
Hello,
I have exactly the same problem - using Sony Ericsson MBS-100 loudspeaker.
I'm not a music freak and i dont expect HiFi quality,
but what I can heart are "horrible high pitched noises in the background"
and generally to MUCH treble - so much that my ears hurts after a while
Tryid this loudspeaker with OLD Sony Ercsson mobile - no more background noise, no more trebles..
So my stupid question
Teeps:
" 1. Using advanced config in Bluetooth: audiogateway - on and powersaving for it on as well; bitpool - very high."
I cant find "advanced config" in Bluetooth ?? Thank you for your answer..

Thanks for answer.
I must say its a little bit better with SRS WOW
(best settings for me just WOW Bass),
but Im disapointed, that was not my vision (such a low quality A2DP)
when I bought my Diamond..
Maybe new ROM with new drivers could help?

You can change the bluetooth profile in Schap's Advanced Config. I've set bitpool to 70, max to 76 and min to 64. Now the sound quality is waaay better.

At these settings can I Bluetooht NOT start :-(
My settings, which is fine for me:
Bitpool at medium, min 20 max 70 works fine.
Audiogateway on. JoinStereo on
What really helps
Schap's Advanced Config - HTC Audio Booster: Trebble - LOW
Bass Medium. 3D off (but not tested).
That really(!!) works for me even without SRS WOW, almost no hight freq. noises.

Thanks mate for your input.
Tried your settings, but I am still not lucky... Sound quality is about the same... I'm desperate... and very much afraid
SOme people on other forums tell me they have no issue with sound quality regarding the A2DP... I guess I'll have to try with another headet.
