[Q] Really loud volume - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Anyone else think that the lowest volume setting is really loud for ringtones? I was using a song ringtone that I transferred over from my EVO4G and it's really really loud for the lowest setting.
On another topic, I then sent it to my computer to try to edit it using a sound editor, put it back on the phone in a Ringtones folder like before, and now it doesn't automatically appear in the list. I hit the + button at the top, select the track, and then get an error that HTC sound set has forced closed and do I want to send a report to HTC. Now every time I try to even change the ringtone, it force closes. The only solution is to change the name of the Ringtones folder.... any ideas as to wtf is going on?
Thanks

hmmmm
Did you maybe change the format of the song when you edited it? Like from MP3 to whatever else, I did that once, I would look at that.
Mine is loud too, but I like that cuz i'm almost 60 lol

Any way to make the ringtones Louder?

Hi,
I work at a really loud place and i never hear my phone ring. Is there anyway i can make the ring tones louder. I have them set to the loudest in the settings. I am running the att rom. Thanks

If you already have set the ringtone volume at the loudes (note that this is a separate setting from the system notification volume!), you can try to edit the sound file itself.
Install the freeware Audacity ( http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ ) on your PC, open your ringtone mp3 file and do an "amplify". To make sure that the sound isn't clipped, you can do a "normalize" instead with a maximum amplitude of 0 dB.
Export as mp3, transfer back to your telephone and use that as your new ringtone!
there should be a registry edit to do this, but making it too loud will damage the speakers.

[Q]Low Ringtone Volume

Hello with my first post...
I love my Diamond very much but there is one thing that really really pisses me out. That is ringtone volume when you pick your own mp3 or waw ringtone. Whenever i use a custom mp3 as my ringtone i barely hear the ring even the phone is in my pocket. But there is no such problem with the original ringtones. Even with the ones you dl from the htc club page. I compared their properties (khz, bit rate, etc) with the custom mp3s and they all look same. You guys have any solution for this annoying problem?

You can edit the files and raise their volume. Use an audio editing app like GoldWave.
Yeah that worked for me!
I used this and set gain to 98 and the result is perfect!

Things i like to see on the TD2

Hello,
I really like my TD2 and TF3D but i'm missing some things..
I hope someone can make this or maybe it already exists..
- In the contacts tab you have at the right side the alphabet were you can select a letter to search contact, I'm wondering this is possible in the music tab, because when i want to listen to a song that starts with the " w " i need to scroll down allot and that takes some time..
- Scrolling with the zoombar, i have seen a topic about this but there wasn't a working solution
- When you're listening to music with the earplugs you can still use the volume buttons when the devices screen is turned off. It would be really helpful to go to the next song with the " hang up " button and go to the previous song with the " start call " button. Is this possible??
- Open a program by holding the start and/or back button. This does work by holding the " start call " button and the " hang up " button. But not with the start and go back button.
- I can't change my SMS receive sound in a .wav file of 4.21kb. Any solution for this? maybe some config change program
- No top curtain at the home menu, I tried some .cabs that would remove it but this didn't work, there was jus't a white bar. and there was also a white bar in the other tabs.
Thanks and Regards, Bas

Already found and tried that but it doesn't work...
To scroll really quickly through your entire list of music, try using Windows Media Player instead of the TF3D music tab. Just switch off the tab in Settings and the phone will use WMP instead. It's much, much faster than TF3D and displays your album art face on instead of skewed to one side.
As far as skipping tracks is concerned, WMP allows you to assign whatever keys you like to whatever functions you want. Personally I use stereo bluetooth headphones which have built in volume, start/pause and track skip controls.
No topcurtain

This bluetooth adapter is what I use myself. Without changing any settings on my TD2 it works perfectly, and it can change volume up / down and change track. Sound quality is far better than what I was expecting, with no hissing or crackling. And cheap as chips.

Default music player doesn't allow this. Grab RingDroid from the Play Store.

you could put the mp3 in a "Ringtones" folder, then pick the file from sound in settings.
With ringdroid i can only set it as a notification,can't use it as ringtone.
And tried to copy the file to the Music folder and media/audio folder but i can't see it in my settings
Default music player does let you set the ring tone-
Just "long press" on the track and the option appears:

Is the Smartwatch any good?
Good question, I won my smart watch in a phones4u comp, I thinks it's great but not sure I would feel that way if I paid full Price.
If you set the clock display to always on the battery won't last a day. I have it set to come on when double tapping the screen. Not so handy if your struggling with the shopping!
Other than that it's pretty impressive, being able to quickly glance at notifications saves taking the phone out of your pocket constantly and mp3 control, whilst basic, is a nice touch.
It does however have a detrimental effect on your phones battery and keeps disconnecting from the Z (worked perfect on the S) maybe the next update will sort it.

Cool.
Thanks for answering.
Am I right in thinking it doesn't work as a hands-free kit?

It does not have a speaker so no good as a hands free, You can answer and reject calls but only any real use if your use a blue tooth headset- or as I do a blue tooth car stereo.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.
Hope you enjoy your XZ.
I've downloaded a music player from play store and the player had the option for it.

Wow my bad. Never even saw that option in the long press menu, then again, I don't long press random things.

To set one of mp3s as a ringtone you don't need to download anything extra. Just go to the sound setting and on the top right hand side of the screen press the Music Symbol and then you'll have access to all your music on your pone.
Revert back to default ringtones folder
GO TO->Settings->Apps->all->Tap on THREE dots & reset apps preferences.
NOW GO TO-.SETTINGS->SOUND->UNDER RINGTONES&VIBRATIONS, TAP->PHONE RINGTONES->TAP SIM1/SIM2->U'LL FIND SOUND PICKER,FILE COMMANDER & SO;SELECT SOUND PICKER TO SELECT XPERIA'S PRELOADED RINGTONES,THAT'S IT!

HTC One Low Battery Sound

Hi Guys!
Hoping someone could help me out with customizing my Sprint HTC One. What I'm trying to do is to replace the original screen lock, screen unlock and low battery sounds with custom ones.
Now I did locate the folder /system/media/audio/ui and have found Lock.ogg, Unlock.ogg and LowBattery.ogg
I'm successfully able to replace Lock.ogg and Unlock.ogg and they work great. Now my problem comes with LowBattery.ogg. I can replace it with my custom sound but it doesn't have any effect. The same old sound still plays.
Now I've tried everything I could think of and nothing seems to work to get my custom low battery sound to play. Then I realized that the original LowBatter.ogg in the /system/media/audio/ui folder and the sound that actually plays aren't the same sound.
In the zip file attached are two files LowBatteryFile.ogg and LowBatterySound.acc.
LowBatteryFile.ogg is the original file found in /system/media/audio/ui
and
LowBatterySound.acc is a recording of the sound that actually plays when I get a low battery alert.
If you listen to them you can hear that they are different, LowBatteryFile.ogg is has a deeper base. So I came to the conclusion that LowBattery.ogg is not the alert sound that plays.
Does anyone know where the actually low battery sound file is located? Or how I can change the low battery alert sound.
Thanks a million!!
PS.
I'm also looking for the location of the "Pull-to-refresh" Sounds (the sounds that play when refreshing feeds and content) For example the sounds that play when refreshing the blinkfeed.
Thanks again!!
