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 :'(

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..

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.

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.

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
Hi guys, actually I haven't searched for this problem (doesnt work somehow :/)
so don't lynch me
I have one little problem with my xda diamond - it's too loud.
When I'm listening to music with the standard headset (haven't bought a 3,5mm adaptor yet) I'm always on the last bar and even sometimes that seems to loud (yeah, I have to admit, my ears are pretty sensitive - but that was never a problem with other mobiles). I'm afraid that if I buy that 3,5mm socket and use it with my standard headphones it will get even louder, because their output is very high....
I tried to reduce the volume in the options - I can reduce it to 2-3% which is optimal. But sometimes I get this horrible bug, that some songs are on 2-3% volum WAY louder than on 10 or 20%. Just imagine, you listen to a song and when it ends the next song just starts like "BAMBAMBAMBAM" and your ears are completly numb
Somebody knows how to fix this, or can recommend me a different player?
Would be very grateful
Cheers,
Kashik

Use mp3gain to adjust the volume of your tracks. This is done (losslessly and reversibly) by adjusting the gain settings encoded into the mp3.
I have all the tracks on my PC set to 92dB but I have increased that volume up to 95dB for the tracks on my Diamond
to make sure:
when you use the up and down volume keys, volume is changed 3 bars at a time (3 out of 15 bars). Have you noticed u can change the volume a bar at a time bij using the touch screen?

maybe its a specific problem with my diamond... anyways, maybe its because of the player - can you recommend me other players?
You haven't been very clear about which player you're actually using!
I assume it's the HTC audio manager in TF3D? You've adjusted the volume of the player (in Schaps Advanced Config or something) down to 2-3% and it's still too loud? Something wrong there.
Try the Windows Media player that should already be installed.
Have you tried downloading and using mp3gain as I suggested above? It sounds like part of your problem is mp3 tracks with wildly different levels.
Hi I don't know if you have tried this obvious sollution yet or not; however, I thought I should mention it anyway, just because I know that when people tend to get frustrated, sometimes the obvious just slips by us.
Remember you have two volume controls on your device when playing MP3's. Your Audio player volume and your main phone volume. Try reducing both until you reach the optimim output level. I know that this really does not solve the problem because really you should not have to do this, but it might work for now.

Like said above - wm player has its own volume control so try to reduce both
I just bought the bluetooth headset Jabra-3030, and the volume control on that headset acts as a audioplayer control, and not as general volume control (like HTC RC E100). So I can reduce the volume more and it's far better (because when I work I like a low low volume )

i'm using the TF3D integrated player. no i didnt try mp3gain yet. no at 2-3% it is perfectly fine - but sometimes the volume seems to explode, especially with some songs - i see the point there. where can i find the standard WM mp3player btw?
Start digging in Programs
I have the same problem - if I use TFL3D and the standart headset that comes with the device, music is WAY TOO LOUD, even when I bring the volume control to just one bar. Using another music player (even MP) works, but hey, there should be a solution to fix that in TFL3D as well!

Hmm. I use the music player in TFL3d too. And yup, the volume was a little too loud at first..
Here's a fix :
Using a registry editor, I've changed the following key values:
HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Config\music_player_volumn --> 20 (default: 100)
HKLM\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\Information\volumn --> 20 (default: 100)
Music volume is now comfy, even at 3 to 4 bars

Hi!
I love my Diamond, but it has one big problem - I wasn't able to hear it in noisy environments. I realized, that poor sound is somehow related with AudioPara3.csv file in Windows directory. I made some tests with this file and whoaaa... my phone is quite louder now. Now I wish to share it with you. Unzip the file, overwrite the old file with the new one in the Windows folder (make backup before) and soft reset the device. You must hear the difference..
I didn't test your file yet, I m sure it maye help, but I made some tests with CorePlayer by change the equalizer parameters and got little bit more volume but with distortion ,seems like the main problem is the speaker itself....
didn't hear any difference

AudioPara3.csv file contains volume and gain values for speaker and microphone. I've tested it, and by raising volume values to the maximum - nothing happened, by raising gain values to the maximum- volume is louder. IMO this is maximum, that Diamond's poor speaker can produce. I am satisfied with it, maybe someone can do more tests and get better result.
Btw, all sounds are louder now: ringtone, speakerphone, system volume, music playback, etc.

Thanks, will give it a try, as I just need little more volume from speakers.
Thanks! Will try this out. If it works out well I would love to see this tweak/fix implemented in some cooked ROM's ^^
EDIT: This works out great! A bit load sometimes, and I can't lower the volume, but atleast I hear the phone ringing now
Well i tested it , and it works .
Really loud ! , i had to lower the volume again ..
Nice work !.
Thanks tripp! It really works! I use it with SRS WOW in which gives my Diamond the loudest sound it ever had
This is awesome thanks a million.

Thank you!
It works for me!
I don't have distortion problem. It is quite suitable for me.
mine is actually too loud, even on the lowest setting people around me can hear my conversation. can I use the same procedure to accomplish the opposite?
Excellent....

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?

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......

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).

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.
