Louder Volume - Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps

Anyone know of a good app to increase default max volume ? I find that my Hero is just too quiet most of the time and I have the volume on full already....
Thanks
Ian

seen an app called volume hack, worth a try.
alternative is to up the volume of your sound files.

There is an app called Louder Volume Hack. Google it and you should find it, not sure if it is on the market or not. I use it on my hero.

System volume and In call volume - one and the same?

I noticed that despite changing in call volume settings and system volume settings, the volumes are linked together.
Has this always been the way? I seem to recall my WM6 phone (Hermes) remembering in call volumes and keeping it seperate from the system volume -but I may be wrong.
I want to lower my in call volume, but the hardware volume buttons don't seem to make that much of a differnce - and not to mention they adjust the system volume as well.
I have read through all the other volume related threads I can find. I think this is the first time someone actually wants to lower the diamond's earpiece volume!
Effectively you have 3 volumes. Unless you are in a call then the volume buttons only give you access to the system and ring volumes. As far as I know you can only adjust the in call volume in call (there will be a registry option also but I don't know where sorry).
Anyway when you start your call before you put the phone to your ear (and the screen goes off) press volume up or down and it will change your call volume.
I figured out what it was... it was due to me disabling the diamond phone skin.
You lose volume functionality.
And if the settings is "silent", even the music player, via earphones, is silent?

Can you elaborate?
I've disabled the Diamond skin yet I am able to independently adjust the in-call volume... in-call. System/ringer volume is adjustable at all other times.

If you disable the diamond dialer skin and have HTC volume control enabled you will not be able to alter the in call volume. To adjust in call volume using default windows dialer skin you also have to disable HTC volume control.
Ah, yes, I do seem to recall having disabled the HTC Volume too with DiamondTweak.

Hi guys,
I do not want to use "Diamond dialer Skin" because of the S2U2, so I have disable it. However, there is no way to alter the in call volume (I have activate and deactivate HTC volume control with Diamond Tweaker, but no way).
Any help?
Thanks in advance
No one has solve this trouble? It is making me crazy!
Why does the dialler skin interefere with S2U2?

Each time a call is incoming, in the first few seconds the dialler skin appears. After that, the normal S2U2 screen appears again (with "slide to answer"...). If you touch accidentally the option "Answer" of the dialler skin by accident in these few seconds, it will answer the call.
I have added something in the registry (to be honest, I can not remember right now) that it was supposed to fix this trouble, but no way...

Does that mean the volume buttons will no longer work during a call but you will get a volume adjuster on the screen...or will the volume buttons still change the in call volume. dont know about anyone else but I find the volume buttons a bit too fiddly and 'sunk' too far...probably nicer to look at though...
I mean that the volume buttons will not work any more. The only way they work in my Diamond is activating "Diamond Dialer Skin", but with this, I get the S2U2 problem...

And a big memory comsumption!!!!
I've disabled phone skin too... and have the same problem. Hard to find the good key in the registry!
Some help are welcome!
THX!

It is not a big problem, but it is making me crazy...
try this regkey
I maxed up my in call volume, and found this DWORD regkey to be changing to FFFFFFFF (8 F's hex value).
Can you try?
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\ShellOverrides\SavedInCallVolume

Thank you very much for the answer.
Anyway, I do know how to configure the volume (I use a "Profiles" software that can adjust the volume). The point is to be able to change the in call volume during the call.
To be honest, I can hardly believe that no one has deactivate "Diamond Skin Phone" and had no trouble with this
I'm using the dialer skin, but when i am talking with someone, adjusting the volume up/down, it always reset it to lowest. Any advice?

volume control during calls

does anybody knows if it's possible to use volume controle during call with htс phone skin disabled? I know only that it is included into the skin. but I didn't like the skin ( I use inesoft dialer instead) because it takes up to 10 M RAM and decrease whole system speed when active.
but with it disabled volume during call can't be changed.
HELP, PLEASE, IF YOU CAN!!!
I am currently also looking for a solution to this problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks

See post #2 of the link in my signature. There's a link to another thread with a CAB file to disable the HTC volume control.

and this disabling allows to control volume of the system, ring and call by which means?

Disabling the HTC volume control (the full screen one) allows the standard WM popup volume control to work. This has two controls for system and ring volume and a separate one for in-call volume that only appears during a call.
There is actually a setting to enable this popup in DiamondTweak but, as far as I can tell, it doesn't work with recent ROMs. The cab is the only method that I know of to adjust in-call volume when not using the HTC dialer.
yes, thanks, I used cab you mentioned. it works with standard wm means. it's better than nothing. are there in the thread interest ing dialer skins?
EXISTS ANOTHER WAY!!!
at 4pda you can find volume control from htc opal. the only thing - it's in qvga. so, if somebody could resize...YOU ARE WELCOME!
Interesting... have you got a screenshot?
How is it better than the WM popup? I actually like the popup now that I have changed the notification colours in my theme. I also like the way that the volume keys can still work when the device is locked - very handy for playing music.
In case anyone is interested, here are some screens of the standard popup:
sorry, that volume control controls only system and ring volume. anyway, I'm trying now to find in call volume control at 4pda.ru
you shouldnt link to warez ^^

[Q] How to raise volume above max?

I feel like for me, the volume on the speaker on the samsung captivate is a little on the low side. Its not REALLY LOW, its just that I would like a little bit higher, so I'm wondering how I can raise the speaker above MAX. I've tried things with secret codes and going into the menu and changing some numbers in the audio menu, but editing those numbers to a 100 and other numbers didn't make a difference with me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

much louder and there will be too much distortion...
Turn it up to 11 .....
Sorry could not help myself.

Yeah I heard that you can use Galaxy Tuner, but when I downloaded it it was really confusing and I didnt know how to use it. Would you please mind telling me how I can use it to raise the volume above max? Thanks!

I wouldn't bother with the Galaxy tuner. Just dial in that code a couple posts above and go from there. It will allow you to go to 100%
Even using that dialer code and going from 92 to 100 I didn't notice much if any of a difference.
I just downloaded Galaxy Tuner, but am not quite sure how to use it as well.
move the sliders on the graphic equilizer up.

Interesting. I use Audio Manager Console from the Market to keep all audio sliders on full, but using this code I found several settings in the 80s. Are the settings accessible by this code always untouched by any app settings on the phone? I put everything in the list to 96, but I'm not seeing much, if any, difference in volume levels.

Is the graphic equilizer the same as hardware equalizer beacuse I cant find graphic equalizer sliders.
i want it to be over 9000
but being serious, any other way to boost volume?
I've mentioned this before in other posts...my Captivate running the stock 2.1 is very loud. The ringer, the earpiece and the spear phone are all perfectly audible in loud environments.
Enter in ROOT and flashable ROMS.
Once I started flashing ROMs the audio is too low. I can't hardly hear a conversation on the earpiece while driving my '08 Tahoe LT, and it's a really quiet vehicle.
When I flash back to stock 2.1 to ready the device for a new ROM, it's loud again. So the last time I decided to see where it went low in the flashing process. I found that immediately after applying Clockwork Mod, PRIOR to flashing a new ROM, is where the audio drops off.
I don't know why CWM lowers the volume, but it would sure be nice if some of these brilliant devs could fix it. With the lack of any decent handsets on the at&t horizon, I'm going to be using this Captivate for a good while longer.

Like I said in the beginning post, doing this does not make a difference in volume for me for some reason.

EDIT : Never mind. For all the other dummies out there, you hit the menu button and go from there. Thx anyway.
Am I really this dumb ? I made it to the last step, and when you say "change to any number", I can't figure out how to do that. It says "Input?", but there is no keypad or up/down buttons or anything. How do you enter a new value ?
EDIT :
p.s. :
I upped the volume from default 92 to 99 and it made a big improvement.
I agree with other post that previously (Cog 3.04) the max volume was sufficient. The I flashed Cog 4.2.2 and existz beta #7 kernel and the max speaker volume wasn't quite loud enough to listen to music in a quiet room unless I held the phone up close to my ear.

First post here, long time lurker . I tried the dialer method and noticed no difference whatsover in volume.
I just tried the Galaxy Tuner and wow, the speaker is really really loud now.
Here is how I did it:
1. Open Galaxy Tuner
2. Go into Sound (3D, Hw EQ)
3. Enable "Use 3D Sound". Turn it all the way up.
4. Enable "Use Hw EQ". Turn all the tabs all the way up.
5. Click on "Apply."
I noticed a huge difference in sound (speaker volume is now really loud). Not really sure how it will affect call volume and the speaker on the receiving end.
Thanks.
Get the spinal tap app. It lets you go to 11!

Did this, made the speakerphone and button click sounds louder (kinda pingy?), but didn't help the regular earpiece speaker on voice calls.

[Q] not mapping vol button to ringer

Hi,
Do you think it's possible to map the vol+/- button to media volume instead of ringer volume when you're on home screen?
thank you
It should automatically switch to media volume when media is playing. What exactly are you trying to do?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App
Somtimes i want to lower the media volume before starting a game.. wish just using buttons could do it!
It can be a pain...
I use Audio Manager. It's an app, not hardware, but it works...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App
Another option: I use Volumer++. You can have it live right in the status bar. Volume keys are remapped to MENU and BACK.
Not the answer to your question, but this app is very cool, and you can select the volumes to control. I find it much easier to manage volumes than using Volumer or Audio Manager.

I forgot that audiomnager exist, i will give it a try.
Thank
I too am interested if anyone has found a solution to this. I have no need for my Nook's volume keys to do anything with ringer volume. I would love to be able to remap these for media volume exclusively.

Single Volume Control

That the volume rocker only controls ringtone drives me nuts, I've seen a number of potential solutions, but lots that don't work on 5.x+
Anyone care to share their current approach? I'm looking for controlling all volumes simultaneously from the rocker, like life should be
Thanks!

It has been over a month since this thread began, does anyone have a solution yet? This would make many people happy :fingers-crossed:
Press on the volume button. .you get the slider. .next is a settings wheel icon...tap it to get expanded bar. .you can increase whatever you want. ..people need more options. .you may want only ring tone volume low but play media volume high. ..each one has different needs
Wanam xposed had multiple features including expanded volume bar and the like. ..may be you need that
