Audio Mod for the Nexus One?

Is there a mod for the nexus one that actually works for increasing the volume? I'm sick of having the superior phone but the lowest volume. I can hear these flip phones alerts or playing music over industrial fans and I can hardly hear my own phone when it's quiet.

right this sucks!!! please anyone knows of any kind to increase the volume really??
as in speaker wise not by ear??

We just need to be careful with how much increase we add. People will go and start blowing up their speakers

The music player Lithium has a volume increaser, but only works whilst playing music

Many of the custom kernels you can install will include the Audio Boost hack. Take a look at Wildmonk, pershoot or intersectraven's kernels.

Umm cyanogen ROM like doubles call volume with the hack and you can't turn it up past 50% or it blows your ear hole off. Have you never tried the cyan hack? It solves this issue long ago.

I have his rom. And Froyo. I still find it very hard to hear anything on my phone. My phone is a freaking Nexus One. Why is the volume so damn low? This is embarrassing. If I need something extra then please tell me what I need to do cause enough is enough. The phone ringing is so hard to hear I damn near miss calls. Meanwhile a flip phone boost mobile outranks my phone with it's volume? Tell me someone is kidding?

mine has always been quite loud, almost annoying, with notifications, when its stock or with cyanogen
maybe try amping up the volume of the ringtone file or notification with an audio program like audacity?

i also got the same problem. the volume is too low. a lot of times i missed the notification because i can't hear it. even in quiet room.
and i stumbled into this web. androidaudiohacks.com
the guy provided an apps to crank up the volume. but it still won't work on nexus one. the guy said it's WIP though. maybe someone can take a look at that web and figured a way to do it on nexus one.

If my phone is in my pocket, I simply do not hear it ring or notify no matter how loud i have it set, period. The sound is pretty good quality-wise but i can only watch a movie with ear buds or if its absolutely silent in the room.
I tried showing off my phone to a friend, he really like the picture but didnt understand the point since we couldnt hear the damn thing!!! He said he'll stick with his stupid iphone, and based on the piss poor performance he witnessed i honestly cant blame him. It is odd that the stock volume made it through testing the way it is, it actually makes me question whether or not the finished product did in fact get tested...of course i have the exact same problem with my $2000 vaio laptop. It plays blu-ray dvd's beautifully you just cant hear anything. So im not all that upset at htc in particular, perhaps there is validity to the blowing speakers concern....

I mean on cyan 508 the volume is insanely loud. Like 60% and the speaker distorts. Maybe this was cyan 507 I'm thinking cause I remember reading him say it was too loud so he was gonna reduce it a little.
But I mean the hack was like purposely over the top loud, like silly loud.

People might not realize that if they're using the original protective pouch - it'll eat 3/4 of what the speaker puts out, because it isn't holed in the right places.
The OP might be using one?

wasn't this the same problem plaguing the g1? just wanted to point this out but the iphone can be "loud" but it actually isn't. trying talking or watching a vid in a room with more than 4 people.

what happened was cyanogen added the volume increase into his ROMs. back in cyan 5.0.7 the volume hack was so ridiculously loud that it couldnt be turned up past around 60% cause it would just kill your ears. then i remember him or someone from the team posting that they were thinking about reducing it in a next version.
so i guess i'm saying you could switch to cyan 5.0.7 if you want to see what the speaker volume really could do and how loud it was, its capable. but it seems like he reduced it in newer cyan version. and nobody wants to use an outdated version, so i guess that doesnt help you. perhaps someone could get them to increase the hack volume again.

Got a link to it? Is there a downside to going to a older version? I have cyan 6.0.0. Is there anything different from this version other than volume compared to 5.0.7?

Well all previous versions of cyanogen ROM are available, but I don't have the link handy. It's on his site or maybe even in ROM manager. If you're really gonna go thru this, I would install cyan 5.0.7. The downside is its a 2.1 based ROM, when 2.2 froyo is now the norm. But that older ROM actually had the 720p video hack working which still isn't fully available on froyo ROMs yet. So that's another advantage of using a 2.1 based cyan ROM, in addition to the audio hack it has.
I'm sure this audio hack could be applied to the new cyan ROM if someone could tell us how to do it.

I sent him a PM but no answer. Its frustrating but also apart of the game. I just want volume.

There are a few threads here already discussing this issue. Please search for them before creating a new thread.
Here's one for you to get started with:

yeah maybe I should've searched in the vibrant forums. thanks.

I won't necessarily say to search through whole. But since Vibrant and Captivate are more or less from the same family Galaxy S, sometimes what applies there would apply here too.
Edit:
Also, the speaker and headset volume are slightly low on some custom ROMs compared to stock ROMs. Like I am on "di11igaf's Rom v2.5". ROM is amazing but the volume levels are slightly lower than stock. Check to see if this is the case, in case u r on custom ROM.

GT N7000 audio output is disappointing

is there an app out there that can majorly help the poor audio power out of my new GT N7000 i live for music and the audio out on this device is disappointing to say the least
nothing can help hardware but its worth a try as its that week in my opinion

As long as you are plugging in via a jack and not over Bluetooth then yes, there is.

Voodoo Louder on ICS, Only 3db?

this is the only thing annoying me with the new ICS. I can only boost my voodoo louder up too 3db, before on Gingerbread it was at least 9db. anyone know a fix?

Looking for one as well

+1

Me too

9db Isn't every 3db is double the output? My ears are ringing thinking about it. Maybe the Note's audio circuit is not capable of more output and your other phone initially was not pushing out as much.

Um no. Gb went up to 10.5. Ics only goes to 3. Truly defeats the purpose of the app

Same here. 10.5db on Gingerbread/Galaxy Note. 10.5db on Honeycomb/Galaxy Tab 7.7. But only 3db on Ice Cream Sandwich/Galaxy Note. What gives?

Supercurio has said that for ics its just 3db for now so he will prob update soon with more DB as I too also have voodoo louder

I guess I'm lucky to have a Tab 7.7 running HC. So I can still use Voodoo Louder on it. I used to use an iPhone 4(S) with a dock-to-line out adapter and a Fiio headphone amp. Voodoo Louder made that unnecessary. I'd hate to go back.

Just wish we could get a reply from him. Pretty lame

Still no update?

hope there will be update soon

Glad we are not all you... a response from the "respected" dev is what I'm after considering I paid good money for the app like others here. App description in the market has not been changed to highlight the app's gimped features in ICS
Besides, going from 10.5db to a recommended 1.5 in ICS is more than pathetic... I switched to Volume+ but just boggles my mind the lack of support this dev gives

Even when i enable the app and it shows 3db, the slider is only at the Half way mark. It never goes to full 3.
Another thing is that i have not seen any volume increase. Is every one seeing an increase in volume.
@Galaxy Note™…

i too am hoping that like in gb, the db goes as high as 10 because the sound really differs. i used senheisser hd 449 and i can't bring my note and galaxy s at the same time. i have purchased the voodoo sound plus which is compatible only to the original galaxy and the sound really impressed me.

+1... after flashing ics and reinstalling voodoo was sad to see only a +3db volume boost instead of the 10+ with gb... hope a fix/update is available soon...

HTC One muffled Sound (BoomSound)

Good evening dear community,
this is my first thread so i hope that it is the correct section.
I apologize for my englisch, im from germany
Now my Problem:
Today i compared the sound from my HTC One Speakers with them from a friend's HTC One.
I recognized that my Sound is not so loud like his Sound and also my speakers are sound muffled.
I thought that it was a Rom (Software-) Problem so i decided to reinstall my and his Phone with the Same Rom, Android Revolution HD 9.3
To exclude the problem from ARHD we also tried TrickDroid, OrDroid etc.
The sound of my speakers were every time lower than his Speakers...
Does anybody know this problem or have the same issue?
It would be nice if someone can help me.
Thanks and a good evening,
Dennis

Maybe he flashed PureXaudio mod?

I'd do a complete wipe n factory restore on both and test it when both units are identical stock, you may have gotten bad speakers and that's a simple replacement. Also make sure you're playing the same quality of song, I thought my speakers were bad until I realized that itunes had converted all my songs to a low quality

I also thought this but i checked and he didnt flashed it.
To get clearness i compared the sound of my Rooted and modified One with the Un-rooted and Mooded One of my dad.
His sound is also louder than mine :/
