Try this
Go to settings > call settings > set equalizer to bright , disable voice enhancement.
and then hear the in call volume, u will be surprised
PS. After disabling the mic noise suppression, mic quality increases.

It's a little late to ask this but, could you solve your low call volume problem?
I have the same low volume trouble with my Xperia Go while making phone calls. The phone is good and still operable after years but i always had call problems. The in-call volume is too low, i can't hear the person clearly especially in noisy places. We used Sony Ericsson K750, w800 phones in the past and they also had low volume in calls. And i see that there are still some Sony users which complain about this same problem like us.
If you solved this issue, could you please let me know?
Thanks in advance. :good:

I don't know what XZ you guys have, but mine is too loud and I didn't do anything to it related to sound. In fact I'm quite annoyed that the phone is too loud when I have a conversation, thus everyone around me being able to hear. I always have to lower the volume to the minimum and it's still too damn loud.
Is there anything that can lower the volume, not make it go up??
I've even disabled the MusicFX and Audio Settings but it's still too loud..

Really?
I almost thougt that it was a Sony characteristic, to limit the volume to some certain level which is low, when compared to other brands (maybe for avoiding to damage the ears?). When i search the web with "sony xperia low call volume" parameters, i see there are lots of complaints about different phones from Sony (NOT just XperiaZ).
Do we have faulty phones, or do you have really sensitive ears? Can you please compare the sound level with different brand phones also?

mine is XZ C6603 and in-call volume is average. not too low or too loud (using bright equalizer on call setting)
have you try to re flash stock firmware? if yes, maybe you have faulty phone

if you are using viper4android, you can set max gain in playback gain control

You can use it. It makes louder sound. Do carefully so it doesn't hurt your ears. Try 2x gain at first

I was not talking about headphone sound but speakers.. i'm actually happy with the sound of headphone ! Just speakers (when using no headphone) sometime i don't hear the notification sound or the ringtone .. cause the speaker sound is weak.. That's why i was thinking about something that can make it louder .. and maybe Viper4android will do the job ?

This make me have a serious question about what's wrong with mi3 quality control, bro. For me, the ringtone and notif sound is little too loud, even when I set the volume level just 3 stops from zero.But now you are saying that it's weak .
Are you sure it's all about volume? or maybe something else? Like bugs that make no notif or ringtone sometimes?
About v4a, I just tried it, and yes, I can confirm that It can make ringtone louder, by activate 'Speaker optimization' and 'extra loud ( max gain) option' :good:

If you have rooted your phone and found out a way to change the SELinux to permissive (I suggest using this and putting it through terminal emulator), you should use Viper4Android to somewhat amplify the speakers and greatly increase the volume threshold for headphones. Best of luck if you try this.

Hi,
I have already installed Viper4Android, but it does not amplify much the volume, neither in the speaker, neither in headphones, it changes a bit the quality, but it does not raise the volume as I wish...
Thanks anyway for the answer.

Did you try setting the UI to expert and adjusting the playback gain control in the headset settings?

Hey guys.
I'm new to Huawei devices, this is my first, but on my previous phones (LGs and Samsungs) I could edit mixer_paths.xml for an increase of volume. I have root already, but I couldn't find that file or any similar to modify... Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

A little up, maybe someone comes up with another idea? Still would need help with increasing volume, please

Hello to everybody,
i thought i should share my unsuccessful attempts of getting more headphone volume with the P9 plus with you.
After recognising that it seems there is no software solution at the moment i ordered several different
headsets with a higher sensitivity than my former used.
The headphones i used during the last few years where really cheap ones which should have 95/96 SPL/V.
I informed a little and learned that every 10 SPL/V more gives you the impression of twice as much volume.
Next i bought the KZ ATE wich are stated to have 118 SPL/V and thought: nice i can kill my ears fast now...
I tried them and did not get any improvement at all. In my opinion they don't sound better and they are also not
playing louder. OK, cheap china-in ear, lets try another...
Now i bought the Sennheiser cx 2.00i which are more than three times the price and a well known brand. They are stated to have 119 SPL/V.
What should i say? They are not playing any significant louder.
There are even inears with 125 SPL/V but at the moment i don't think this will change anything.
Do i miss something?
Do you have a solution in the meantime?
best regards,
Henning

SPL has to do with the maximum decibels provided by the headphones, BUT did you look at how many ohms the headphones have? The impedance (measured in ohma) determines the power needed to.. Well, to power those speakers inside your headphones
As fat as I know, most phones can only give a decent enough power to 16 and 32ohm headphones, and not to anything above that...
I miss my LG and Samsung days... It was so easy to just modify the mixer_paths.xml files to get higher volume

Decrease minimum in-call volume

Hi
Is there a way to decrease the minimum in-call volume? The minimum level is too loud for me and everybody at work hear my conversation I'm on RR Rom if that helps.

Same Problem here. Last AEX. Minimum Sound in calls much to loud!
Z2 Pro
Update
I self found the solution. In sound settings increase steps for call to 15.

Volume Boost Note 8

Is there a way to boost the volume without Root?
Thanks for any help!

need that too!

First make sure your media volume limiter is off, then go to equalizer and push all frequencies to max, that should give you about 10 dB extra.

Can't promise that it will work but they're is an app called SpeakerBoost that I've installed
..... Seems to work

how do you do that

settings/sounds and vibration/sound quality and effects
actually just go to settings, click on search functions (circle with with line on the bottom, top right corner) and type media volume limiter, or whatever function you're looking for

I try it, but continue with low volume. My previous Note 2 had louder audio.

ok

Just a comment, my 950F does not have a media volume limiter option

Download "Speaker Booster" on the Play Store. Hope this helps

I tried pretty much everything but nothing really actually worked. If you use the SoundAlive profiles or boost the EQ it just limits the two top volume levels from working.
I have now rooted and manually changed the mixer_gains.xml file and it's amazing now. super loud with no distortion at all.
Sadly rooting is really the only way to go. Dunno why Samsung limit the volume so much when the DAC is capable of a far better volume output. It's the one thing that really lets this handset down.

Can you link me the mixer paths you used?

All you need to do is change the values in mixer_gains.xml as per the screenshot. Root only of course.
This is only for the wired headphone volume.

After trying about 5 models of headphones and being ridiculously low volume in all of them (especially in Spotify and YouTube videos), I found a expensive solution, but that has solved the problem withoutroot, i have bought the Jaybird X3, very good quality, very good volume and good insulation, despite being in ear.
I still think that with normal headphones, such as those that come in the box of AKG, Xiaomi Piston 2, Sony STH32, Sony SBH24 or even the great AudioTechnica M40X the volume is ridiculously low on this mobile.
Greetings.

It is ridiculously low, and has been on Samsung mobiles for a while now. Seems they need to protect us from ourselves. sad.
As stated above, root and a simple change to a text file makes one hell of a difference.
Another good solution is an external DAC like the Creative E3. It works well too and no need to root.

Hey, I'm with you all ; the volume of the note 8 is low. Now I tried every GD volume app on the play store and none work. I kept looking and I found one that works: Music Equalizer and Bass Booster by Coocent. This app no **** will increase volume. I swear.

Could you please advice if this would work if you use Bluetooth devices, such as speakers or headphones? I mean it is so annoying that samsung actually achieve year over year to have worst volume... just when you think it couldn't get worst.
I would appreciate if you can let me know!

I followed your tip, but in my 950F, exynos, this app in fact decreases the volume! It may only work with snapdragons
