Volume steps - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone else notice the volume steps are a bit coarse?
I mean, on the lowest volume setting I disturb others in a quiet room..
Is there a mod for finer tuning on the volume available?
I feel like I'm the only one who thinks there should be a mod for the device especially because of the dual speakers!
Any input appreciated

I think the main problem is the volume level of the notification files are not all the same. It's annoying when you have volume at the first step, but you'll receive a text and not even hear it, but then an email would come through and it's ridiculously loud! 2013 and we still don't have files that are all the same volume levels

I ran into this nuisance as well. The external speaker volume is much too loud for my tastes, even at their lowest setting. Accordingly, I left my alarm volume at its lowest setting to match, figuring it'd be plenty loud enough. Nope! Slept right through it; didn't wake me up once.

Complete Volume control.

One of the few flaws in the captivate, I think, is the inability to control both the ringer sound and media sound with the volume buttons. Upon searching for a tweak for this problem, I got half a million results, all talking about the button combos used in flashing roms and various modes. If anyone knows of a mod for this, it would be much appreciated, and if not, I'm up to help someone make one.

Volume control widget. But the buttons do ringer when media not playing and when you are playing something you can do media.

not sure what you are asking for because, at any normal time press the volume buttons and it controls Ringer volume. When you play media and hit the volume buttons it Controls Media Volume. press them durring a call and it changes in call volume....
or to change any volume at any time...
Settings>sound>volume
yes but some times im watching a movie or something, and I exit out of it, if I want to play it in a class or in a crowd I have to suffer an awkward moment of loudness before I can turn it down. On an ipod, I can turn all sounds down in a second without worrying about something going off. Maybe its a little picky but its just one of those things that's nice to have

Sound too loud (Holics-ROM 0.4)

I was wondering if anyone else has this issue, the sound being loud even on medium volume. Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated, besides lowering the volume

Check on Settings/Calls and see if there is a hearing aid option. If it is there, make sure it is unchecked. This setting will make earpiece calls sound very loud, almost like it was on speakerphone, and when it is on, lowering the volume has little or no effect.
I found that the hearing aid is on...but there is no way to uncheck it. The option is gone

I have the same issue with accessibility features. Hopefully the new update fixes that.

Same issue with theVolume always 100%
I have looked under every setting I could and nothing works. When I make or receivea call my ear volume is100%so I turn it down. Next call its back up. Itwill not stay low. Ive tried 4-5 volume controlers, some with locks. Really frustrating, all is stock. Any ideas???

During the installation process of Holics did you elect to install Sony's xLOUD Audio, by chance? I believe it is automatic unless you uncheck it. I'm guessing this is your problem. I have Holics on my Vivid (with Sony's xLOUD Audio) and I love the louder speakers. If you just don't like the volume during calls you could always use an app like Tasker to set the volume lower automatically when you answer a call.

Is There Any Way To Turn Down Speakers Below Minimum Volume?

The speakers are way too loud even on lowest volume when I am alone in my room. I don't need the speaker to be blasting at me when im playing Angry Birds or something. Anything I can do about that?
Update: Trying out an app called Fine Volume Control 2. It was the only thing I could find that did what I want, unfortunately, it seems extremely inconsistent and buggy.
Update 2: Uninstalled Fine Volume Control 2, wayyy too inconsistent and buggy. Still looking for any suggestions.

try volume control apps, like volume control +
Having the same problem. Feels a bit loud at the lowest volume

I cant guarantee this works as I am STILL waiting for my HTC One to arrive here in Australia but when I had my aweful Galaxy Nexus I used a app called Volume+ to turn the volume up as it was so low you couldn't hear it ring. I remember the app also allowed you to turn the volume down. Worth a try.
Volume+ doesn't work for JB so useless for me.
Volume Control+ seems to be just an app with all the volume control sliders in one place which is useless.
There's a update to fix the volume to make it lower don't know if it's out yet it is if you got a custom rom

Ugh... I wished they'd release their fixes already. There is this volume thing and also the 3 dot menu thing.
Bump. Still looking for a solution.
I remember reading about the Music Volume EQ app (on, I believe, Phandroid?) and people said they had some luck with messing with the equalizer settings on this app to turn the volume down for the One. Haven't tried it for myself though.
Yes, if you use the Music Volume EQ app and turn all the equalizer settings down to -15 and the volume down to 1, the speakers are much more quiet!
Yep, using Music Volume EQ for now. Still not as good as having a integrated option, but can live with it for now.
They should of made a slider volume instead of in steps!

[Q] Call Volume vs. OneX?

So, I love my HTC oneX it's GREAT in every way except the incall volume is TERRIBLE. Does the HTC One have better levels?? I wan't to hear from someone who has had both...........Thanks!
Call volume on the ONE is loud and clear. I'll say a bit too loud.
Just be careful to not accidentally press the speaker phone while putting it against your ear. I was temporarily deaf!
Only problem is I wish the volume can be set lower cos it's too loud for others to hear at minimum

Anyone els think this phone is incredibly loud even at quietest setting?

I have my alarm, notification, and ring tones set to one notch above 0 and the alarm still makes me jump out of bed and I jump anytime my phone rings. Does anyone else think their ONE is incredibly loud? I can't imagine setting the volume to anything over 20%.
You can make it noticeably quieter by enabling Beats.
Aside from that, yes, it is a very loud phone by default.
This is going to sound a tad odd, but I think that the lowest volume is not low enough and the highest setting can definitely be higher!
The lower end of the volume should be a tad less. Enough for you to hear it in a quiet room, but not enough to fill up the quiet room (currently the case)
The higher end should drown other devices, but at the current software # version, it only beats other devices by a slight margin...
Think Devs are on this (increasing the max, decreasing the min), but I actually don't have confirmation -- just something that seems logical..
Anyway, hopefully things work themselves out and lower gets lower while higher gets slightly louder =] (maybe add some volume points)

I have heard the original 1.28 version volume levels were substantially higher. I am on 1.29 and they were supposedly reduced on that version. I was looking for a zip somewhere that would just install the 1.28 volume files. I like my music loud and the 1.29 version is not loud enough. When I stream music in my car or to my sound system at home it has plenty of volume because of the amplifiers in those systems.
Nots not the loudness, its the fine control of the volume we'd like to see
