Hey Everyone,
Admin's if this is the wrong thread please move...if there's already a thread about this specific issue please point me in the right direction...I've searched with no real answer...
Specs:
Moto Droid
Buglessbeast v0.4 (installed 08.15.10 via ROM Manager)
Motorola HX1 Bluetooth Earpiece
Problem:
I have very quiet in-call volume on my new fancy HX1 BT. I can hear just fine when walking around the house but when I get to driving it starts to get harder to hear and even harder when I'm on the freeway.
The HX1 is supposed to be really good and loud in general, even the built in voice prompts are REALLY loud in comparison to the sound that I'm getting when I make a call. I paired it with my father-in-law's old timey phone and it was louder than anything and worked perfect..I could hold it out of my ear and still hear what was being said....
I tried my moto droid phone with an LG BT device with the same result...I also get a funny thing happening when I hang up..even though my BT in call volume is all the way up when I hang up a call the screen that shows the volume of the blue tooth pops up and shows 1/2 the volume and then disappears...but the volume on the HX1 BT is still at full...
I made a video of the funny little problem that I get with the in call volume...I don't know if it has anything to do with it...but maybe it might trigger someone's mind into what the problem could be...
Since I'm brand new I can't link the video but if you go to youtube and search:
Motorola HX1 - Bluetooth Volume Problem
It should be the first one the comes up..
Thanks in advance everyone..
STEVE
Same problem
I have the same EXACT problem with my HX1 and my DroidX (android 2.2). Any solution? It seemed to work fine at first, but now, after about 3 weeks of use, the in call volume is half, and the phone shows the half volume dialog when I end a call. The voice prompts are LOUD. I have done a factory reset of the HX1 with no result.

I've searched everywhere, and couldn't find anything on this...
A few weeks ago, my girlfriend got me the Motorola S9 for my Tilt, I hooked it up, and realized sound was only coming out of the left ear... So, I searched google about the problem and found out a few people seem to have had that problem, and to just replace the S9... Well, I recently did (After the AT&T store found it fun to hassle me over exchanging ...) and The newer one has the same exact problem.
I've paried it and repaired it, soft reset the phone... turned the bluetooth headset off and than back on after setting it and nothing, sound only comes out of the left ear, however i know the right ear is working cause when i have an incoming call, both outputs ring, as well as beep when I hit the various controls on the S9. I also can hear a wooshing type noise when i'm talking or listening to music on the device (which gives me a headache, as only listening with one ear is annoying)
is there any type of software fix I could get to fix this? i'd hate to have the return the s9 again...
on side sound
I am running slueth's windows mobile 6.1. when I call the conversatoin only occurs in the left earpiece, when I use steroe its fine
I have bin on a holiday for a week, using my X1 in the plane as a music player only. After I came back yesterday and I tried to call someone the person could not hear me.
I tried a soft reset, still didn't work. Tried to call an other mobile of mine, still no sound. If I blow very hard in the microphone hole I hear something on the other line.
The only thing I did before leaving on my holiday was uninstalling SRS WOW because I could not change the volume in media player. I tried installing it now but that didn't help.
Also If I try to call handsfree using my bluetooth carkit it does work, but if I try to record a movie with my mobile it does record sound...
Has this something to do with the software or the hardware of the phone? Any suggestions are welcome, thank you.
Sounds like it's software. While you're in call, press the up button on the top right of the phone to turn the volume up.
(I just got my X1 and it's the first thing I could think of)
No that doesn't work, and the strange thing is that my TomTom doesn't give me any sound anymore. And its settings are all ok.
When I turn on my phone then it shows the headset icon for like 2 seconds and then it dissapears because of the some other icon replaces it.

i have not had any issue like this but could you of possibly damaged the speaker some how and that could be why everything is so low.
what rom are you running or are you on stock rooted.
I am stock rooted
after 5-6 reboot sound is back
motox is only 2 months old and barely used
I will see if it comes back and will call motorola if that comes back

I had a similar experience with the Touchless Controls voice. My phone would have normal volumes, but I could never hear what it said back to me. I contacted Moto Support, and they said this is a known issue, and they are looking for a solution. Until then, the support lady said to use the volume rocker to turn the volume down a few times, then turn it back up. I did this, and the readout voice for the Touchless Controls was back to normal volume.
You can try this... but YMMV.

I've had similiar experiences when I was playing music, then the touchless controls would interrupt to read a message. When it was done, the music would come back on, but much quieter than before. It would usually go back to normal volume on the next song or by switching music apps.
Hi everybody. I have the t mobile moto x 32gb on ATT. Works great ..the best phone no questions. I have an older car with aftermarket JVC unit with bluetooth capabilities inluding A2DP(which works great by the way) but the microphone of the JVC is not good so I don't use it for phone calls. I had that issue before where after the phone being connected to the car and disconnected (when I leave the car) the sound is super low it shows max but it is not(the moto x has great crisp and loud sound both on the earpiece and the speaker), so I have to restart the phone and this will fix my issue..but since I am not using it much I was ok with it...Now I have a 2010 Prius with blueetooth handsfree calling but no A2DP(that is ok with me I can use the AUX). The microphone on the Prius is great people are saying they hear me great and so do I. But now I am facing that issue again..
Is anyone familiar with that ? It is really annoying that I leave the car where I was in a conversation with great sound I lock my car and walk on a busy street and cant here what people are saying no matter if I am using the speakerphone or the earpiece..I have to tell them that will call them back in a minute after I restart my phone.
PLEASE HELP !
THANKS
Anything ?
Try persist+ from play?
Bluetooth volumes have been haunted ever since 4.4. Hell... plugging in the charger when I am on my vehicle's bluetooth changes the volume.
Hoping this finally get this fixed in 4.4.3, but until then, I have found a number of tricks.
1.) There is a sweet spot on the volume scale (around 70%) that is best to leave it at.
2.) I haven't had to restart my phone... usually just cycling BT off and on again restores original volume. Sometimes even starting/stopping media playback fixes it.
I can confirm to have the same problem. Hope it'll be solved in next updates.
Hi, I just got my Nexus 6 that I purchased from eBay, everything is ok but the call volume, while it's pretty clear, I think it's too low compared to other phones, I'm not sure if I'm crazy or someone else has noticed that? I tried the speakers for music and they are loud, again, it might just me, but I wanted to double check if someone has noticed that, and if it's something normal for this phone, thanks!

Try this.
1. Make sure the system volume is all the way up as well as the phone earpiece volume.
Get an app the controls all volumes and you'll see it there along with media , alarm etc.
This happened to me but once i raised system and phone it was fine.
Also note that you must practice placing ear in perfect earpiece speaker position lol.
Let me know if it worked that was my problem.

Ditto. My phone volume way too low for in call - either with built-in earpiece or a wired headset.
Nothing I've found brings it up.
Speakers for media/notification is very good&loud, but speaker for in-call (using as a true speakerphone, not trying to use speakerphone mode as earpiece) and ringing is inadequate.

Believe that with update to 5.01 that is going to fix the problem, hope so, I believe that I read it somewhere. I really want to know what are all the fixes for the new version 5.01
BTW, I have Volume Ace download it from play store and see if you got all volume up
Good luck !
