Can anyone recommend me an app which will increase the volume of Google Maps? My volume is perfect on everything apart from that one app even on max volume.
The other ago I need is one which will let me control volume on different profiles. For example, when I'm listening to music with my speakers plugged in, I don't want to switch to an app which has music so that it plays over the top of my media player, I'd like to setup apps to mute when I have my speakers plugged in.
Thanks peeps!

Anyone know if there is an application on the market or something I can use to crank the volume on this thing? It is absurdly weak.
I assume you are referring to ring volume.. if so i would love something that would make it louder too

Well, that and headset volume. On the Eris, there was a hack called "turn it up to eleven" - I can't find that anymore, and this thing is ridiculous.
I put it at full volume, plug it into my computer input, and crank that to full volume and is like background noise.
This is what I did, and it worked great. I have PowerAMP pro, and while listening to some songs, I was playing with the EQ settings. I was able to boost the music playback to really loud levels by cranking up the preamp. Then, the other day while watching Netflix, I was getting pretty annoyed because it was hard to hear at full volume. I went to the home screen and loaded PowerAMP. I adjusted the EQ settings, then went into "Advanced Tweaks" and checked "Keep Service," then went back to my Netflix movie. The difference was night and day. Upping the preamp seems to have boosted all my audio.
Hope this works for you guys. PowerAMP is a payed app, but maybe another app with an EQ will work too.
Hi
Something a little weird with my Optimus 2x. When I have bluetooth headphones connected, sometimes I loose all volume control. Today I was hitting the volume on the headphones, and it wasn't changing. When I turn down the volume on the phone, the sound dips to really quiet for a second or two, then jump back up to where it was.
My headphones are HELIUM DIGITAL HDBT-700
Any thoughts?
Thanks
So, I found out the problem is the Power Amp app. Everything works fine when I use the stock music player.
That's unfortunate; Power amp is a good player. Also the stock music widget is pretty ugly.
Is there a replacement for the stock music widget?
i know of phantom music control, and there's probably more.
phantom music control is compatible with most media player apps, has several button themes, and has the ability to hide itself when no music is playing.
This isn't a bug, more of a ICS/JB feature that is somewhat annoying.
I have sensitive ears, so whenever I listen to music on my phone, I keep the volume at one unit above muted. If that sounds confusing, think of it as muting the phone, then pressing the volume up button exactly once.
I noticed that at this setting, the volume is considerably louder than in CM7 at the same setting. I understand many people actually appreciate this, but in my case, it's loud enough that I end up having difficulty hearing external noises, i.e. someone calling my name from across the room, or the doorbell ringing.
Is there any sort of app or setting that I could use to fine-tune the volume even more? I would like something that is analogous to the in-line headphone volume control I use on my PC. On my PC, I use the Windows settings to put the volume at 20%, then I use the rotary slider on my headphone wire to fine-tune, adjusting up or down depending on whether I'm on skype, playing a game, watching a movie, etc, without changing the Windows volume from 20%. If there's some way to do this on Android, that'd be great.
You ought to be able to do that, using DSP manager or a media player with an equalizer, such as PowerAmp.
...
Yeah dsp manager is your best option. Easy to use as well

Forgot to check back on this thread. Thanks guys, DSP Manager's equalizer worked.
Whenever listening to music with the stock player the music pauses for no reason after a while. Doesn't seem to have a pattern, it has nothing to do with notifications or anything else that I can recognize. This has happened with plugged in earbuds and with a bluetooth headset so I'm guessing it's not the jack's fault.
I searched around but found nothing specific to this device, is anyone else having an issue like this? I haven't really tried using other music players, although I think it happened once with Winamp too.
On a side note, is there anyway to make a bluetooth headset control playback for programs other than the stock player? For example if I'm using Winamp and I press Next on the bluetooth headset, Winamp will pause and the stock player will start playing, really annoying. I wouldn't mind using the stock player if it worked correctly.
Not being very useful, but i have exact the same issue

have you flipped your phone over?
Did you set your CPU speed too low?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I have the turn over motion disabled but I did activate the CPU Power Saving option. Do you think that could be the reason?
It could be since sometime when i set the CPU below 500 mega hertz the music stops occasionally when the screen is off. Just try to set above 500.

Well I disabled CPU power saving and I'm trying a different music player. Haven't experienced any weird pauses. Hopefully that was the problem.
I am filled with red hot rage whenever I switch apps which use sound (music player, video player, game) and the volume is different. For example, I was listening to music on max volume with my headphones on this morning while walking to work. At work right now I'm testing apps with the volume all the way down so I don't bug my colleagues, but in one of the tests I needed sound. So I plug in my headphones, the music player kicks in and it's played at max volume. I have the music player set to autostart when I plug in headphones for other reasons, but why doesn't it take on the volume I've just set? Why does it need it' own volume setting?
Is it possible to have a module which just uses one volume setting for all apps? You lower the volume to 50% in MX player, it stays on 50% in Poweramp, Trials, Elevate or any other app.
AFAIK, this is not a standard Android behavior. Looks like your player app is trying to remember the last volume
setting it was playing with to later use it when it starts again. Try taking it up with the app developer.
If that's the case, there should at least be an option within app for such behavior.
It's been my experience that if you have the volume ALL the way down (vibrate), plugging in the headphones will turn the volume up. If you just have your volume low but not all the way down, plugging in the headphones won't change the volume. That's just anecdotal, though, so maybe I'm wrong. Is that consistent with what you're experiencing?
