I find the volume on Voice Command prompts extremely low.
The Voice Call over BT is fine.
Just the prompt.
Anyone how to adjust it. Usually I just turn volume up on headset but it does not respond.
Thanks.

Not sure if you and I are having the same issue but here's what I'm experiencing. I have one of those visor clip-on bluetooth speaker units in my truck (this one, to be exact: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Blue...&qid=1368373646&sr=8-1&keywords=t325+motorola). When I press the button on the unit to activate the voice command prompt, the prompt does not come though the bluetooth speaker. It comes out through the phone speaker and it's very low. Once I do get the call going, all sound then comes through the bluetooth speaker loud and clear.
I did not have this issue with my Galaxy S3. All prompts and commands came through the bluetooth speaker loud and clear.
Unfortunatly, I did not test the bluetooth BEFORE I rooted and installed ViperROM, so I cannot be sure if this is a ROM or phone issue.

Nope, but similar issue. It's definitely doing voice command prompt through the headset, it's just very low volume. Once on the call the volume is fine.
Same here, I didn't test before I put on OMJ ROM. I suspect it's not the ROM though.
I have a hunch the problem has to do with Beats Audio.
I have tried disabling beats with no change but I think it might still route through it.
I fixed it.
I think the Volume between the Phone BT and the Headset was out of Sink.
All I did was turn the Volume Down to Min and then Back up and now it's loud.
And it seems across boots.
I swear I tried Up and Down and got no response initially. Not sure if the OTA helped anything.
Even now the "Bluetooth Volume" does not always immediately appear on the screen when I adjust headset Volume.

i really hope its me............. i hope its something i am doing wrong
i have heard virtually all HTC products...........and everyone has paired up just fine with my car bluetooth kit (BMW 3 series, 06 plate)
i eagerly awaited the Kaiser as the complete utopic device.............and i still think it is..............except..............THE WEEDY, TINNY, LOW VOLUME audio when on Handsfree !!!!!!!!!!!!
my carkit allows upto 4 devices to be memorised, so i have paired my HTC Touch, my HTC S710 and the TyTn II to it.......... the first 2 are perfect, rich, bassy sound with good volume that is perfectly audible even on the motorway.................
the TyTn II is VERY low, just about audible in stationary traffic and not at all bassy........... you remember those weedy HiFi systems that had about 5w Total output and could be bought for £29.99 !!!!!
i have seen a few posts saying the same thing........... i wonder if it is HTC's ROM that has this??? what about the T-Mobile users or perhaps the Dopod users??
i guess it is objective........... if you have never had a HTC device, you would have nothing to judge it by and therefore you are probably satisfied......but i have had LOADS of different devices, HTC and Mobile carrier branded, and none are as pathetic as the TyTn II on Bluetooth audio........... it is seriously stopping me using it as my main phone device which is such a big shame
PLEASE......... if anyone has any reg tweaks, rom upgrades, suggestions, ideas let me know.............. this £450 device is nowhere near as good as my wife's £30 mobile phone when it comes to audio...............
cheers
Mark
PS have to say, the audio is fine when you listen into the internal speaker or on speakerphone, so not sure it is the audio chip ???
Hi. I have the AT&T tilt and I noticed the same thing when using the audio section for playing mp3's via my Jabra BT620's when I play music using the built in wmp I cant quite get the volume I like so I switched to using CorePlayer 1.1.1 which has a preamp option in it and I can tell you for a fact there is nothing wrong with bluetooth volume when you do that. So it is probably going to be an easy software fix or even a simple registry hack to fix the volume issue.

that sounds good.............but as well as the Bluetooth volume its also the quality of the audio that i find hard to explain, no bass, just really tinny
but....... i would be happy to even increase the volume only at this stage!
Something to try: when bluetooth connection is active, tap the speaker icon on the taskbar of your today screen and turn the left hand volume slider up for more A2DP volume and the right hand volume slider up for more handsfree volume. I've tested the left hand slider & it works like a charm for hifi audio. On my 5 series, the audio sounded fine if I just bumped the volume using the steering wheel controls so I haven't tested the effect of the right hand slider on handsfree audio.

yep, bluetooth active, tap the icon, both sides up at maximum. place a call, turn 'in call' volume up to maximum, still really low and weedy !
tried the steering wheel volume and also the radio volume and still no joy!
as i said, all other devices are fine, just the tytn!
thanks for the suggestion though
maybe theres a problem with the bluetooth/wifi ariel as i have issues with my bluetooth totally failing when i turn on wifi
It works fine with the Lexus car kit. However the audio is mono and comes from the left channel only

if you dont want it in mono try PocketPlayer it will more then likely fix your problem. I love audible books, and this is now my default program for listening to them over bluetooth.
Definitely something wrong with mine. I think we should keep communicating with HTC until they fix it. My Blueant Z9 is unusable. No bass, and when I had the volume turned all the way up [both phone and headset], it almost broke my ear drum. Yet, I hardly can make out the sound coming from the ear set. I had no problem with 8525. It definitely has something to do with the antenna or the driver.
I am hoping HTC will respond to this asap.
I'm using a JawBone and what I notice, is when I use the headset to increase volume, the volume doesn't seem to actually be increasing, even tho the headset is giving acknowledgment beeps.
Seems I don't really have any control over the bluetooth headset volume. Nothing I can perceive anyway.

I can say that the fidelity on the bluetooth stereo is absolutely awesome on mine. I just used Coreplayer so I could boost the volume a tad using the preamp settings.
maybe each profile in your car kit stores unique settings for bass etc - have you tried fiddling with its settings?
There are several threads running about this. I have Jawbones and it appears that it's mainly the phone BT audio that has issues. I can use BT audio toggle and divert Coreplayer or SlingBox or iGuidance Nav sounds out to the Jawbone and they sound loud, bassy and clear.
I then place a call and the sound is wimpy and low. It's not and antenna problem, I use BT internetsharing and BT headsets all day long with this Kaiser with good range. It's "hopefully" a software issue between the phone's audio output to bluetooth. The phone's audio quality on the naitive phone's earpiece and speaker are very good quality, better quality, than my 8525 had.
It's frustrating, it's the only major flaw in the phone and HTC seems clueless in all the responses I've seen to date.
just in case anyone is interested, i have found a small improvement by doing the following:-
using a registry editor
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings
change USEJOINTSTEREO from 1 to 0
if nothing else, it just seems louder.....................
hope it helps

Perhaps this tweak could be included in Chainfire's utility?
Is there any way to reduce the calling sound of X1? (The speaker on the top of the screen) Mine is so hard, even on the lowest volume. When I set the volume to the highest volume, it is like I have set to hands free. Its really annoying to have the sound that hard, because the people who are next to me can hear the voice of the person who I'm talking with. When I talk a few minutes, I even get a headache.
Why don't you turn off the Speakerphone?
Seriously, I constantly move the phone a bit away from my ear. I can hear it anyway Anyone who can help me with this?
I also suspect that the sound is coming out of the speakerphone and not the earphone. Ensure that hte speakerphone is turned off on your phone while calling. Maybe you've change a setting somewhere? Another reason could be that you are using fring or skype to call.... the calls are diverted to the speakerphone instead of the earphone when you use skype or fring. There is a tweak available to redirect the sound to the earphone. You can also use headphones instead.
Thanks for your reply. I dont use fring or skype. And I know that the sound comes from the earphone. I have tested it by putting my finger on the speakerphone and earphone. The hard sound comes really from the earphone.
Where is the tweak to redirect the sound to the earphone btw?
I have the same issue, and no matter which ROM I've used the earphone minimum volume is just too loud. Maybe there is a registry setting to lower it?
I hope so. Weird that less people have same kind of problem.
hello,
same issue for me....
After using a headset, the phone speaker for phonecalls won't work. I can use the loud speaker at the back of the phone, but not the ordinary speaker.
I got the speaker to work one time when taking the headset in and out of the phone (but not since, a week ago). Therefore I don't think the speaker is broken, but I'm not able to get it to work again.
Had the same problem on a Iphone (1.gen), but then I was able to get it to work again after pluging a headset in and out. Tried a lot of times with the SGS, but didn't help.
I tried to update the phone to JPX, didn't help
Just seams like the phone thinks the headset is plugged in even though it's not..
Any idea how to fix this?
When making calls there is button "Headset", try pushing that if it could help.
Thanks for answering. That button gives me the opertunity to connect a blutooth headset. Still no speaker sound..
When I make/get a call while having my phone plugged into my car stereo's Aux input, the call volume is very low. I previously though it simply wasn't coming through at all, but I happed to get a call while the engine was off, and could just barely hear the call volume through the stereo. Even after cranking the phone, stereo & aux level setting in my stereo, the volume's still too low to be used while driving.
Is there a fix, setting, or work-around for this? I really enjoyed using this as my hands-free solution.
One more thing, when I use the stock earbuds with a mic that came with the phone, the volume's fine. I know the phone recognizes headphones with and without a mic from using Tasker.
Thanks in advance!
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 !
