I keep hearing how these speakers are suppose to be so loud but mine don't really seem to get that loud, not sure if something is wrong with mine or others are just over exaggerating, I was trying to show them off to a buddy at work and played a YouTube video and we could barely hear it, so then I played some songs straight out of the internal memory and it wasn't really to much louder, I got the volume turned all way up and beats audio on, maybe there is some other eq somewhere I don't know about? My old evo 4g was almost just as loud

The one I am sending back were not that loud, but they would fade in and out to really loud to barely being able to hear. Also the crackling.
Mine are really loud with no crackling. The first time I got a notification it was startling how loud they were. Games sound amazing.
Won't be able to say for sure until I get mine Monday, but I went to the sprint store and played with the display today. I think the speakers are a touch over hyped. They are definitely louder than any phone I've had personally...but didn't seem like some people make them out to be.
Again, I'll know for sure Monday..

The speakers for me are very loud and clear. It's hard to believe they are on a phone

Mine are extremely loud, my wife and a few coworkers have been taken aback by them. Yesterday my wife texted me while she was upstairs and I was down. After her first text she tested right afterwards telling me to turn my phone down because she could hear it from up there.

For phone speakers they are very loud and clear and people are not exaggerating. You're phone may be alright, you may just have unrealistic expectations for what they can do with tiny speakers in a handset.
My Note II is about as loud but doesn't sound anywhere near as good.

Honestly mine are appropriately loud if that makes sense, well except for when turned down to lowest volume they are STILL kind of loud. It's kind of startling how loud it is, I actually jump sometimes from getting a text or email because it's just abruptly loud. It is something to get used to, but it seems you may have to return yours because it does seem there is something wrong.
A good rule of thumb for max volume on the HTC One speakers is that it should "fill the room" with sound. I can play mine max volume in my room at the other end of the house and hear it perfectly fine while in the kitchen.
I bought one of these when I got my One. I'm use to hearing things this loud so I don't expect much from phone speakers. Ring tones and notifications are crazy loud. Music isn't to crazy on my phone. I usually have my goodie bag of stuff, extra charger, external battery, this speaker, ipad, twinkles, you know the usual.

Are you running a Rom? Viperrom has the bootsound disabled by default. I have a flashable zip to reenable it

No unrooted stock
Mines is no sound also, completely stock still.
Oddly enough, mine also didn't have a sound when stock.
Was your phone on silent or vibrate before you rebooted? I swear it disables the start up sound but I could be wrong. It annoyed me so I deleted the sound file anyway.
Also, I wish the max volume could be lowered. The minimum volume is still freaking loud.

After having the phone a couple weeks or so now, and letting the epic feeling wear off. I've realized that while the speakers sound pretty good, HTC "boomsound" is a letdown.
My girlfriends s3 is just as loud but doesn't sound as good. Tonight the power went out at work at we gathered in the break room..a bunch of us starting watching YouTube videos. Granted I could barely load any with Sprints crappy network (and most definitely not hq) but when it did play, some dudes crappy LG was drowning my "boomsound" completely out.
The speakers are loud and do have a better sound than a lot of phones, but they are over rated. I like them, but I'm still slightly disappointed

I also found my speakers weren't incredible loud, the quality was amazing for being on a phone, but if i'm in an environment where people are talking, or outside and it's windy at all i have a hard time hearing the phone, but it is consistent, no fading or crackling or anything
Anyone else noticing that their phones vibrator is making more noise than actual vibration? While holding the phone, it's louder than any other phone I've had when it was sitting on a table and vibrating. Just seems odd to me. Sounds like it's loose or rattling inside

Mine is the same. Its hit or miss if I feel it in my pocket. I can hear it buzzing though. Ive been using sound instead of vibrate for the last few days. I cant remember the last time I had to choose a ringer. LOL!
Same here.. On swift key I turned haptic feedback to 20ish

Maybe you should return your vibrator to wherever you bought it from and they can replace it.

Already called customer service, they won't take it back cause it's been used.

Haha, seriously though, this phone has the most obnoxious vibrate I've ever heard. I used to set my phone on my desk while I work and leave it on vibrate but now the vibrate sound annoys me so much I have to put it on silent or just a ringtone.
Is it true that the Note 3 makes it incompatible with earphones from Apple?
When I plugged the apple earphones into my notes, I heard no sound at all even though the phone detected a head phone plugged in.
Anyone knows how to solve this? Because the Note 3 doesn't even come with earphones....

I haven't tried the old one, but the new one doesn't work. Can't hear any music. Actually, I can hear "sound", not music.... the sound is way to low and noisy......
I have my galaxy gear from att running stock with a few sideloaded apps. I have really enjoyed using the watch and use s voice for responding to texts. However the speaker sometimes sounds crackly. I don't know if I can fix it or need to take it back to att.
Any advice?
Yeah I'm having the same issue I returned the first one I had cause of that issue I'm rooted and on null 18

The farther I am from my phone when using s-voice, the worse it gets. If I'm next to my phone, it's fine. Go upstairs and phone down, it's crackly. I feel it's not the speaker but just the relay between phone and gear is weak, like when I used blue tooth headsets and would push the limits on distance.

Omg thank you so much. Was blowing my mind how music/video, sound just fine. While S Voice kept cracking "manly used it when phone was away on charger" kept cracking. Then I put it in my pocket while standing and sound just fine.
Hi guys,
So I just got the pioneer 8700bt installed in my car.
Everything works great but the voice on the navigation is incredibly louder than everything else. I can't seem to turn down the volume at all just mute. It's uncomfortably scaring the sh*t outta me every time she tells me to turn left!
Anyone have the same issue? Solution?
I'm using a nexus 6 and the x8700bt

Have you tried lowering the 'Alerts' volume level on the headunit? The default should be 8 but I found in most cars I've used that 4 or 2 is a more comfortable level.
Ah yea didn't think it should be that low. Was on 9 its now on 2 which is much better! Thanks!
