Hi, I have noticed that my headphones soumd is very very low even if it is on it's maximum. I also did a comparison with my old HTC desire 630 and the sound on the same headphones in-ear is incomparable. Also I tried with numerous settings with Huawei Histen but it's always the same. Does anyone have the similar problem, is it a factory problem, system problem or there is something I should do to increase the volume.? Thanks.
I reported the same on the official Huawei forum - the staff answer is that it's a design feature...
Here's the thread: https://uk.community.huawei.com/mat...increase-volume-when-headphones-are-used-1020

Couple of days ago I started experiencing a distortion in internal earpiece speaker during a call. The volume can not be set over 40% or else conversation sounds like a Jimmy Hendrix concert I tried hard reset, even reflashed the phone, but the problem persists. The conversation sound is OK when transfered to external speaker or headphones.
I did a thorough search on several forums and it appears that many people are experiencing similar type of problem, usually appearing in first months of use (my phone is 3 months old). Other people are experiencing low volume on internal speaker - when increased via software methods they also have distorted sound.
This is not reported by people on this forum, but on several others. Since I bought my Diamond in UK and I live in other country I am currently thinking about sending it for repair, but there are reports of HTC service either not repairing the device or recurrence of problem after short time.
What do you think about this? How many of you have troubles with Diamond's speaker? Maybe we should warn the HTC about this? This is an excellent device - it would be such a shame to have a design flaw?
EDIT
Managed to solve the problem. I went to my friend who owns phone repair shop. He changed the earpiece speaker with spare one which is actually for Sony Ericsson K850i. What a difference!!! The sound is unbelievably crisp and clear. He told me that earpiece receiver built in Diamond looks very cheap. So if you are willing to void the warranty (I had to since I don't live in country of purchase).
Hi guys!
So, as most of you probably know, Sony BTN-200 became available several weeks ago. This headset features support of latest Bluetooth profiles and NFC Easy Connect.
Yesterday, I received it from Amazon. So far, so good. Although I have found couple minuses:
1. It only pairs with one device (in difference from MW600, which was able to pair with 2 mobiles and computer)
2. While connected to my XPERIA T the volume is very low even on maximum level.
So, with first I can deal, no problem. But the second problem is quite dissatisfying, I've tried several sound enhancements, nothing.
Any ideas?
And if any of you also have bought it, please share your experience.
Hi,
I have read in a different post,
That after trying to make a screenshot the volume suddenly became louder!
I still have to try this my self as I have the same problem with my bluetooth headset.
It is just not loud enough to be listening in the subway...
Never had the problem using same headset and HTC desire Z
I ll try it tonight
Cheers
Tony
I have to bump this thread up.
I've recently bought this headset and I have exactly the same problem as described in the first post. The volume is way too quiet but after making a screenshot it becomes much louder... this is really strange as the headset itself works perfectly with calls etc. I'm a little bit unsatisfied with the audio quality but still the volume problem is the biggest one as I don't want to make a screenshot every time it's too low...
What would be an effective way, without rooting the device, to increase overall output of volume, i.e. earpiece for phone calls, speakers for speakerphone and audio/media, and headphone jack. I might be going deaf, but this is one of the quietest phones I have had.
Install Viper4AndroidFX.

Hey there.
I suggest you install Viper4Android FX to increase your overall volume output. It has several options to modify the way sound is reproduced via headset, speaker, and bluetooth audio sources. The only requirement is a rooted Z3C. Cheers!
Please hit thanks if it helped!
I don't have one but there may be a boost in the menu for Volume.
You can also use the equalizer and boost all bands or the
ones you hear, meaning not very low frequencies since the speakers, earphone transducers don't reproduce those, boost all the mid and medium high frequencies.
SOME Z3Cs are very quiet in Volume , like the one tested at GSM Arena and some are very loud, like this
one:
Sony Xperia Z3 Compact vs HTC One Mini 2: http://youtu.be/Z8UxXtGDOcA
Go to about 16:40 in the Video and you will hear the
Z3 C is louder than HTC M one Mini .
Unfortunately-not ALL Z3 Cs are this loud, according to
my unscientific research before I buy one.
Regardless-I am amazed that a few like you and,GSM
Arena find the phone too quiet and others report opposite.
Youtube Videos are not accurate BUT with two phones side by side still an indication of relative Volumes.
I conclude that SOME Z3Cs are much lower in Volume.

Thanks, but I guess I should have, and thought I did clarify in the original post, that I don't want to root, till an exploit is found that won't wipe the TA. I'll go back and clarify so there is not more confusion.

To be honest, all Sony products I have had, are super quiet. My Sony Flip 14a was super quiet till a new update came out and fixed it. Walkmans are typically very quiet as well. Shrug, just a thing I suppose.
I have the same problems with my brand new Z3 Compact. The over all volume is very low, it is okay when in silent environment, but at a bus, airplane, or in a crowded area it is very hard to hear what people say in calls or podcasts etc.
I did a comparison with my friends iPhone, plugged both in to my soundcard, the output from the iPhone is around 20-25% louder. I hate to switch back to iPhone, but this is kind of a big deal. I did a comparison of Z3C and iPhone 5S and the Z3c is about 20% lower. I can not post a link to the youtube-video (got to have 10 posts)
Is there any way to fix this?

Me too I have installed miui 7 and is coming with some sound mods, it´s better sound with but still isn´t great.
get 10 post as well wiiiii xD
I don't think there's a way of really boosting the overall volume without rooting it.
And please don't start with the EQ bands & other such bs or apps that boost volume without root.
The only alternatives are Viper4Android & a post I saw about editing mixer_paths.xml and modifying some values there, which I did, but I already had Viper4Android installed. So I'm guessing you can't do more than that. But even Viper4Android doesn't give you all that much of a boost. If you're an audiophile and want your music to sound good and not just blast mid-high frequencies like crazy, you'll consider buying a portable amp for music listening.
I have the same problem, so can't boost volume audio without root?... Im on lollipop 5.1.1 Stock
Yes - you need root. There is a simple flashable zip file on this forum that many have flashed with great results. Search using the keyword "xloud"

Dear All,
from the beginning I am facing the issue with the volume levels on my Note 9 (Exynos version). The last two volume levels decrease the volume overall so it is like the maximum volume of the phone is at 80%. Anyone faced similar issue ? Any idea how to solve this ?
I have already tried the factory reset, uninstalling 3rd party apps, used samsung music apk but issue remains..
Yes, even mine but this is not an issue but a way to avoid to break the earphones or the phones speakers because the level of the sound will be to high for them. Also that behavior doesn't make distorsions that otherwise will be present at that volume level. The same thing happens (volume goes down) when rising the cursors of the equilazor when selecting costum sound or selecting valve sound option because all these causes distorsions at high level volume. Also this thing is generally used in all Samsung phones and I remember it since galaxy s5... So, not an issue at all.
I remember the same behavior happening even in all the old stereo systems amps and even car steroes when putting on the loudness function that boosts the basses and the trebles on low and middle volumes and goes out in the same way and for the same reasons as our phones near the max volume.... so, even old stuff and even not a samsung invention.
I don't know the answer but I did notice the volume changes in Pie, I was always annoyed by the fact that notifications weren't loud enough, now they seem too loud. Might be an audio bug.

I'm not on pie, still on 8 and it's not a bug for music . For the rest, like notifications, never noticed something and so I don't know.. maybe what your experiencing is a bug.
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.
