I am wondering if anyone knows of an app or a mod now that I have rooted my xperia T, that will allow me to control all the different volumes as one.
I find having sepperate volumes for everything more of a hinderance than a help, Id be quite happy to go back to the days of my old Nokia 3310 where I had a single volume switch for everything.
Also if this is possible I would also like to make the phone lock all volumes to max when a bluetooth audio connection is made, I have managed to do this with volume control+, but havnt found a way of controlling all the volumes at the same time with that app.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give

My Bionic's lowest volume using headphones in calls is, unfortunately, still incredibly loud. I've used the volume rocker while in call to bring it down to its lowest setting, but that's still pretty loud.
Is there any software which can affect the call volume? An alternative dialer? I'm rooted, for what it's worth. I don't want to switch to a different type of headphones, but I can't really take this volume.
Thanks!

I searched the market and there are some apps the control volume, but they do not mention the range. They are free. So you might try them. Search "Volume Control".
I know you don't want to switch headphones, but here are in "in-line" volume controllers that you can add under your earphone plug.
Good luck
Unfortunately, all of the volume control apps that I've tried (by searching volume control as you suggested( have only been able to adjust in the same 1-7 point scale as the rockers. Really, I need a volume app which allows me to select a volume between 0 (silent) and 1 (the rocker's quietest setting.
I may look into on-headphone attenuators, but that's trouble too because not all calls are so loud.
That said, thanks for the response!

maybe...hold the phone farther away from your ear?
Wilbur,
I'm already hanging the earbuds from my ears pointing away to get down to a reasonable level with some conference call services. Sadly, it's a bit more complex than that
I too have been looking for this...Ive tried about 4 or 5 apps today. None of them well allow a setting between 0 and 1.
I am using a single mono AD2P headset, and trying to get the volume of the music a little lower. I just want it to be there kind of as background music, but it is too loud.
I've just gotten off the phone with a second-level tech at Verizon who said that variable call volume will be addressed in the next Bionic software update. He also said that it's currently in beta, and will drop Mid-November. Sorry to bump my own thread, but this is the first time I've gotten anybody at Moto or VZW to admit this was even a problem.
I am wondering if anyone can exploit a glitch in the bluetooth audio volume on the xperia T
As most of you will no doubt be aware the bluetooth volume is rediculously low on the xperia T, i believe its low on most android phones?
However I have found that with all of volumes at max, If I go to setting, sound, volumes then set the ringer volume to max the volume to the bluetooth headphone literally doubles
Is this something that can be exploited by someone who is in the know?
I am desperate to get more volume from my phone via bluetooth as my headphones are very quiet in comparison to my old nokia n8, but more importantly music is rediculously low when connecting my phone to my car via bluetooth, its such a shame as both worked so well with my old nokia I would love to find a way around this problem.
Thank You

Try installing xposed framework and finding the mod that allows the advanced volume control. It seperates all the volume streams so blutooth volume is not linked to other volumes.
Search for it in google or the themes and app section

When connected via bluetooth I get the bluetooth volume adjuster on my phone when I use the buttons, however this is already at max, with all volumes at max it is still very low, however just pressing the ringtone volume, even without adjusting it as it is already at max, it plays my ringtone for a second thn suddenly I have twice the volume, despite all volumes including bluetoth were already at max, suddenly I have plenty of volume?

This app does a nice job of setting media volume to max and works superb, however it hasn't solved the issue, even with all volumes set to max the Bluetooth volume is still very low, however just touching the notification or alarm volume slider and letting it beep, then doubles the output.
I have just flashed .145 Rom and kernel hoping it would fix the issue, but it still persists. Does it not do the same for everyone else?
I.e start walkman with Bluetooth headphones or car connected, start playing music, then go to settings, sounds, volumes and adjust the alarm volume, then the volume has Bluetooth output volume has suddenly doubled?
It didn't do it on custom Roms for me just sock ones, custom ones stayed quiet no matter what
"just touching the notification or alarm volume slider and letting it beep, then doubles the output."
THANK YOU! Fast little work around to get true max volume on my Xperia T. Can't believe Sony hasn't gotten this sorted after many updates. I can finally use my Jambox again haha!
The low bluetooth volume is a known issue on JB FW's for Xperia T. (read somewhere its related to actual JB rather than Sony only).
My fix for it is..connect BT headphone.. take a quick call.. just dial something for even a second n end...n volume increases on BT..
Hello.
Over a week ago I switched from my dear old Xperia Neo to Xperia Z1 and so far no real complaints except:
The in-call volume even on the lowest level is too loud. Much too loud. It's impossible to hold it so that it touches my ear when listening to the other caller. It was never the problem with Neo. Some people joke that modern smartphones are so loaded with features that the quality of the fundamental functions may become secondary. Well, it isn't very far from that.
I've searched for a solution all over the place, but all you find is ''Volume Boosters'' and how to increase volume steps. That doesn't do a thing with volume.
Does anybody know how to lower the minimum call volume (or minimum System volume or whatever that helps to solve my issue)?
The phone is rooted, with stock firmware.
Thanks.

search help in this thread, you can change values but i dont know them
Hi people,
So i got my new Realme x2 Pro yesterday. Overall i'm really happy with the phone. Today when commuting, i used the bluetooth earphones (sony wf1000-xm3) and... Surprise! the maximum volume is a third of what it was the they before yesterday with my htc u11.
I'm pretty sure it's an option of the OS that is screwing me up, but cannot find the fix. Someone has a similar problem to mine and a way to solve it?
i tried:
- disable the dobly atmos options in sound settings.
- on developer options: disable the absolute volume.
non of them worked.
Oh, forgot to say: I'm on the European version of the OS

I have the same setup and don't have issue with max sound .... have you tried putting the volume up via the headphones directly (touch gesture slide up on the right cup) ?

Hi Jake, It's The WF model, not WH (have them too). The WF does not have volume control (because there is no space to swipe)
but once i arrive home, i'll try what happens with the WH.

So, I'm trying now with the WH-1000xm3 and it's the same problem as the WF.
The maximum volume i'm getting is as best a third of what i had with the HTC U11.
There is something very wrong here.
So, at the end really was a problem with the headset.
no problem with the phone bluetooth.
please close the thread
Hi
I have experienced the same problem with a set of Bose earphones and a bluetooth speaker. The volume is significantly less than when these devices are used with any other mobile phone.
It is categorically an issue with the OS (unless I am missing something flagrant, or worse yet it is a hardware issue). Grateful for anyone's advice.

verify within the app of bose the volume of the headset (if you have the option there)

Thanks I will look into it, but these are fairly simple bluetooth earphones, not aware of any app optionality.
I note the December ColorOS updates included a bug fix for "low sound when connected to AirPods2 headset".
Would imply this is a wider issue.
I came across the same problem with the WF-1000XM3. I managed to fix it by changing one of the touch functions of the earphones to volume control. Then I just adjusted the volume on the earphones to the max and now I have full volume.
I have a sony z3c with a broken microphone. So I thought, I can use this great phone as an music-, podcast- and audiobook-player. Just ike the Sony NW A100.
But when I connect a bluetooth speaker or headphone to that device there are only 15 steps to increase or decrease the volume. And the lowest volume possible is way to loud to listen podcast late at night on my JBL go 1 or 2. Also the volumechange between two steps is to heavy.
Normaly I use my Samsung Galaxy S8 to play audiofiles. There are also only 15 Steps to change the volume. But I can change “media volume sync” in the bluetooth advanced settings to change the volume of the smartphone and the speaker separately, which fixed my problem. On some sony smartphones in the developer options you can toggle "Disable absolut volume", but on my z3c this option is nowhere to be found.
But that’s not possible on the z3c. I tried apps like “Precise Volume“, some tweaks in the Xposed framework and ViPER4Android. Even some custom rom. But nothing worked.
With some tweaks or ViPER4 Android I could get the volume lower (by reduce the output gain or lover all frequencies in the EQ). But then, when I change the volume, sometimes 2 or 3 steps remain on the same volume.
Does any of you have any Idea how to help my with my problem? It’s been two month now, that I tried everything to fix it, but till today, I don’t found any solution...
idk exactly, but maybe you can take this a hint for furter research on that topic:
