I've looked all over for a solution to make the speakers louder on 4.2.2 but no luck . When I got the phone it seamed loud but now I can't hear people when making calls in the car. I've tried beats off all different volumes and all the crap apps but still it's no louder than my note. I've read that HTC have lowered the volumes on 4.2.2 is there any way to get the volume back and make the speakers louder. Please don't respond by saying your phone is loud enough as mine isn't!!
Thanks
There is a zip to make it really loud again.

Sorry fella, I have the 4.2.2 update stock rom (UK unbranded) and the volume is so loud I cannot listen at full volume in a quiet room and have it max of 75% my age 49 so my hearing not as good as a teen obviously. I think your phone may well be faulty?

Both are correct. HTC has lowered the volume repeatedly in their upgraded firmwares. The man who said his is still loud is most likely still running old >1.26 FW.
Now, as of a way to raise these volumes im not quite sure how to do this through file editing (Maybe the zip in post #2 or #3 works, idk, if your in dire need, nandroid and flash it) BUT if youre up to flashing a kernel (assuming youre running 4.2.2 and are on sense) you can flash Tbaldens Performance Kernel (in Orig. Android Dev. section) and that will give you options to boost volumes on multiple fronts. I can confirm this works myself, as i use this feature actively and dont experience any crackling or popping. If you decide to download this kernel, youll need Trickstermod Kernel Control app from the Play Store to edit the values.
(Lol, seems like alot but i promise its not. Plus you get extra sweet features like USB Fastcharge, and Overclocking and all that jazz with the kernel. Its worth it)

both zips dont work for me. Im on trickdroid 8 on sense. The kernel methof requires a payment do access the sound settings in the trickter mod settings and i dont think i need to pay to get my phones speakers working properly. Any other ideas/methods/suggestions?
could anyone tell me how can i path the file , i am very new on htc ,thanks
Extract the tfa folder and then replace it with the tfa folder in system/etc/tfa. Set permissions, reboot

Hi, I own note 2, S4 and note 3. When using headphones with note 3, the volume is very low compared to my other devices. I am using original note 3 head phones. Anyone else with this issue?
Seems OK to me. Was Jamming out to some Hatebreed yesterday and it was loud enough

These phone manufactures really don't want you listening to loud music. I find this very annoying. Even the iPhone 5S doesn't go very loud.
Not sure about you guys but my UE Triple-Fi 10 and Monster Turbines are making me deaf (I'm using PlayerPro Music Player.)
I also feel that the max volume is low. Aux out to my car or boombox gets maxed out with ease - my atrix definitely gets louder.
Also there is always some minute feedback.
Hoping for a sound mod like for my Nexus 7

Yea, same thing with me. Headphones are good and loud, but sucks with the AUX cable in the car.

This is really worrisome. I have audio glitches where max and min volume get stepped down and is much quieter. Anyone have any apps or root methods to fix this.

You can use Neutron Player. There is a preamp slider in the equalizer screen. If you enable the preamp and advance the slider, you will get additional volume albeit at the expense of fidelity. I , too am annoyed at the feeble volume. I am especially annoyed at the stupid warning screen at 75 percent volume which you have to press the ok button to advance to max volume

Root it and use xposed framework and wanam module to get rid of the warning. There is a thread that has the modded volume tweak file in Q&A I believe.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498747
I was going through the original of the file that is modded and it looks like stock settings for most audio outputs are set between 60% and 80%. A lot of room to adjust.

anyone notice that if you get a notification while listening to music, the volume max is greatly reduced and does not return to normal? very irritating.

I have lost significant amount of hearing in my right ear and I was curious if there is a mod or control panel to increase the output of one headphone rather than the balance 50-50 it has so I can make it like 60--40 or 70-30? Similar to how Windows does it?

Am I the only one who thinks the notification volumes are too low? I have my volume maxed out and can barely hear them. I hear my ringtone just fine but every other notification might as well be muted. Is there any way to fix this?

Is anyone else having the issue where the phone has it's control for volume and the Bluetooth device has it's own? Possibly a 7.0 issue?

In my opinion I prefer this better. Now I always thought the my phone had a problem when it control the speaker volume and the phone together. And I think it's on the speaker. I mean I have several Bluetooth speakers some have their own volume. And other is together using the phone. It could be just the speaker.
