[Q] How do you amplify headphones without flashing

Hey guys, Im semi new to android phones and hacking them. Ive been looking for a way to amplify the volume (aux out or headphones) of my galaxy s. I drive alot and so plug it into my cars headset. Ive been looking at other methods of how to do this but most require flashing voodoo and voodoo sound or something. Not knowing how/ wanting to flash my galaxy yet, is there anyway to do this without?
Your help would be appreciated.
Of cause if the only way is to flash i will look into it.

But you loose quality, it is software enhanced sound which means it distorts sooner. With voodoo its different, its taking advantage of the inbuilt hardware.. The wm8994 amp inside the phone is very powerful and capable of driving high end headphones that normally require an external amp, for some reason samsung gimped it when the released the phone.. But voodoo fixes that and gives you a much better music experience. Louder but without loss of quality.. It also has improvements for the mic as well.

I agree with St4ark. Flash either voodoo or speedmod kernal and download voodoo control app from the market. The difference is amazing.

I havent tried voodo sound, but generally speaking, If its louder it can't be better quality.
HP volume is too much on the galaxy for my hearing, I just wish it could have more volume steps like 20 or 30 instead of 15.
In the night even on the 1 volume is too much.

Audio boost app on mkt. Boosts the same way voodoo does by upping internal amp setting. Don't need to flash but do need to be rooted.

Hey guys thanks for all the help. ill try out audio boost first. I have rooted, and used oclf (one click lag fix) on my phone. Im not sure if i want to put voodoo on it. Does voodoo fix the messege lag?
the new voodo has mic settings which audioboost doesnt so you can "finally" record at a concert with decent sound.
also if you dont want to muck with your lag stuff (vodoo kerenel) take a look at hardcord kernel.. many more options than voodoo.. i am
using it and it has back light notification support, lagfix (off by default) and voodoo latest sound support among other stuff.

Yup it changes file system to ext4 which is faster than rfs, so lag is reduced.
Also flashing it with odin is pretty easy, but be sure to read up on it before doing it because if you check the wrong box you can have problems..
Be sure you have 3 buttons mode working before you do any sort of customising though.
Thanks for the info st4rk. I appreciate it.If i were to flash though, id use the reboot method, cause i dont have a windows computer in my house. (Only linux and freebsd). Which means id have to install the 3 button restart. Just a question though, do i have to uninstall my lag fixes before flashing? and does voodoo use the 512 meg of ram? What quadrant standard score should i expect? im running at like 1500 atm. thanks for the help
u’d better try the newest speedmod kernel
or voodoo,both of them can meet your request
sorry, which request?
Try 3rd party MP3 player called PowerAMP. It has an Equalizer with one of the preset modes called: Phone Speaker (Loud). It makes the audio out really loud without any system modifications . Just found out about it.
My power amp trial ran out. it made the speaker louder but not the head phones
It definitely does the head phones louder as well. Just tested it again.
oh, maybe i wasnt using it right? dam

[Q]Force audio output through headset?

Hello ~
I got a sennheiser ie 8i which was supposed to work on ipod/phone/xxxx. I wish to use it on the i9000 and found this . When I tried to dial (with the headset plugged in), the audio comes out from the phone's speaker and wont detect the headset. And hollow sound when playing music (just like the link described like the headset wasnt fully plugged in). I wonder if there is an app ( or even by modifying the kernel? ) that could force everything to go via the headset?
got speedmod kernel with voodo sound built in or the voodoo kernel.. i reommend speedmod

These kernels 'optimize' the sound capability of the phone i would say .. but won't change the connectivity detection policy i guess ..?

Speaker volume is lower in CM7 than Stock

i m using custom kernels.

You need to install the Voodoo sound patch:

I'm not very pleased to read that... as stock sound is already pretty bad... My old GT540 has much better sound than this phone... I'll probably look into a headset for this.

Try freezing it next time. It is easier to unfreeze rather than reinstalling dsp when u want it back.
I frozes mine.

really disappointed with volume ,help me how to boost it

really disappointed with volume ,help me how to boost it
i am (ics lpf rooted + speed mod kernel)
i know that:
1-voodoo not supported to speedmod kernel
2-ics > GB With about 7 db
but ics not fair enough for loud sound
what the latest app or kernel which help me get my ring and music sound louder????
but didnt harm or damage our speakers as i tried some boosters at my old xperia x2 which damaged one of my speakers ( i need a soft boost not hardware boost ) as i think
Get speedmod and install voodoo louder need root for that
Also note is big so chance you cover speaker or dont place your ear properly on it is also higher.

[Q] loudpeaker sound decreased after jelly bean update.

Hello freinds
. my cappy came with froyo 2.2 and i flashed cm 10.1 nightly rom on it. Everything seems to work fine execpt that the loudspeaker volume has decreased very much...then i tryed the captivating xperia themed but the loudspeker volume dint incresed so i decided to go back to stock with odin one click back to 2.2 and now the speker volume is loud like before..i have followed mr trusello's guide to flash the rom the odin way..
Now i want to flash a 4.2 rom without compromising on sound
Any help pls seniors.??????
Thanks
Am i the only 1 facing this issue?
Anyone????
CM Jelly bean has some sound related settings that will be unfamiliar to you coming from Froyo.
on 4.2, did you check the system settings, particularly for DSP manager on the speaker tab? and headset plug in jack safety?
did you download the voodoo sound app and they try unchecking the box for tune speaker for music or other voodoo settings?
As above, it's a bit of a known issue on jb.
If you have a ROM with dsp manager or a similar root sound manager, you can crank up the levels a bit in there by messing with it. I know SLIM has it embedded, same with captivating.
Experiment with some settings and find what works best for you. As far as a permanent fix goes, wait for an update?

Try Unofficial Semaphore by Nick0703. You'll be amazed now loud your speaker can be. This kernel enables In-Call Volume Controls in Settings>Device.
