The "marcini.thinkblu-tilt2 vol increase.cab" posted elsewhere on this forum makes the volume level on my TP2 tolerable (and thank you for that!) but I still have one issue...
Whenever I turn my phone off and then back on, the volume level resets to somewhere in the middle. I know it is petty, but I hate fumbling around with the volume to raise it back up. I want it to stay at the maximium level *always*.
How can I force the my phone to always boot up with the headset volume set to the highest setting? Thanks!
probably a registry setting somewhere here. Back up your registry (or phone) before making changes.
HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\InCall
Thanks, but I found and tried that one as well as "InCall2" and "InCall3" without any luck.
I also found and tried "SavedInCallVolume" and "SavedVolume" - I think I've tried every setting in the registry that seems like it might have anything to do with volume, but still haven't gotten anywhere. Everytime I cycle power it goes back to the middle setting :-(

flash another rom that woud solve it. now where is my $10?
I certainly haven't tried all available ROM's, but I'm sure that none of the ones that I have tried handle the volume any differently than any other...
Please make sure you understand what I am asking, point me to a specific ROM that works the way I want, and I will happily send you $10!
Anyway to turn the screen off, with the power button, but keep music playing?
Tried it with the touchflo3D player and the windows media player...both turn off the music when I try to turn the screen off...
Anyone else have this problem?
I have pocketshied installed...so not sure if this is a phone prob or pocketshield is causing it to happen...it still happens whether pocketshield is on or not though...
Thanks
I have never had this problem on my Tilt 2. Is this a TP2 only issue?

dude..u only need reg.cab name
"keep music playing".
search xda or google..
yeah, it's working for me as well although you cannot skip tracks like you can with iphone unless you install third party software.
did you check your lock setting and make sure you check "lock if playing music"?

Again, not an issue for me. I skip tracks without issue. I use my BT headphones to listen to music while I ride my mountain bike and I have runsat recording my ride going in the background. No issues whatsoever. I have none of the "fixes" mentioned installed, it has always worked fine for me even now that I'm using S2U2.

I'll have to try S2U2.
What's with the skip track thing that's being talked about?
Do you guys mean while the screen is off?
I have the tilt2 and also have this problem. by default, WMP is supposed to keep playing, but only if you let the device suspend on its own. This generally works, but there will be a brief stutter and lag when it first turns the device off.
PocketPlayer is a good 3rd party app that has the option to turn off the screen for uninterupted listening. Playlist management is a bit of a chore with that program, though.

The cab file is inside the zip file along with a bunch of other stuff for modding the S2U2 clock and skins. All you need is the one cab file for the actual S2U2 program. Unzip it to a folder and just copy the cab file to your device and run it. If you don't know how to unzip a file you might want to reconsider modding your phone.
EDIT: Here. I'll make it easy for you. Latest version attached.

BTW did a hard reset...and the issue is still there.
It keeps playing if there's a headset, external speakers, or bluetooth headset that it is playing through....but not through the phone's speakers.

Hey, I never thought to try that since I don't listen to music through the phone speakers. Mine stops when listening that way, too.

My Tilt 2 does the same thing.
Could you just set a quicker "screen off" time in the power settings? Wouldn't that basically accomplish the same thing? It is weird that it will keep playing when the phone goes into standby on its own, but not when you press the power button to turn the screen off.

Actually, it makes sense the way it is. If you are manually turning off the backlight it assumes you want to shut down all functions except the phone.
I found that if I just push the lock button for S2U2 it locks the screen and shuts the screen off at the set time, but allows the music to keep playing. A small hassel, but a work around.
Keep Music Playing
Registry location:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\ Unattended\
Change Wav1 dword value to a "0"
Then when you have music playing in any program,
tap the power button to put in suspend mode,
and you're good to go.
hi, considering all the amazing work going on here by the devs, this is really minor.
using Clemsyn froyo 2.2 with Haret but maybe typical question.
when it wakes from sleep with power button the screen stays alight for about 2secs. sometimes it will black out before the white/multicoloured screen goes.
can i change to say 1 min this anywhere like the screen timeout. i always have it set to 10mins for the main display. its no prob to just press end or power to relock.
ps. did have some probs with sound but solved after changing radio from 1.64.08.21,
tried 1.71.09.01 and 1.65.21.18 but no good either. using 1.65.24.36 on kaiser now and seems to be ok.
what is strange about sound is how LOUD everything is compared to the barely audible winmo and whispering ringtones

The timeout is related to the number of fake v-syncs the phone is doing. There is a parameter to adjust that. Run a search for it as I forget where/how to adjust it.

hmm, ok thanks. will have to do some reading then.
a google search came up with some stuff to check...
and a youtube video:
"Britney Spears : Lip-Sync + Boobs being Fake"
so maybe check that one out also sometime :-D
lmao I wouldn't use google for this search. I would search inside the kaiser forums only. I am pretty sure no other phones have a need for fake v-sync's except us. I remember asking L1qu1d to add the ability to be able to adjust it several weeks ago which he did. Before it was a static value that couldn't be changed.
Anyone come up with a volume hack for headphones? On the g2 you could edit the mixerpaths file. Im rooted without twrp and tried that and got stuck in a nice bootloop and had to push the stock rom thru adb to get back up. Once i get twrp i can run thru some settings. Just wondering if anyone else is bummed out by this low volume.
I can say my phone don't need volume boost. Phone sounds great. Have to turn it down. Sounds way better than note 3
The speaker is fine. Although I wish it could go up by one or two when I'm listening through headphones.

Ooops yea edited my post to reflect that im talking about headphone volume.
I had a chance to play YouTube on G3 through speaker.
The speaker is nice if it's not louder than S3.
I'll take a crack at it. I'm at work now but ill see if i can figure it out in the am

Partially hijacking this thread, but does anybody know if there's a hidden way to disable the safe volume warning every time I plug in my headset? This is the most annoying thing on this phone, especially if I do a quick travel to n from lunch and work, I have to keep pressing the volume button again n again. I know most likely it's baked into the ROM, but maybe someone knows something.
OP, you sure this is not the problem you're facing? At first I thought I had gone all the way on the volume, but I realized I had to press it again to boost the volume to the max.

Nah I wish. I just like really loud music. The phone is capable of doing much higher levels with a few slight tweaks. I'm sure for most its loud enough.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but, G3 Tweaksbox has this option. It is under sound tweaks. Then check "Disable Safety Headset Volume"

1. Download & extract the version for android 4.4, then install it
2. Open Viper4Android, choose quality, let it install the special driver and allow root. You may need to update busybox, it will prompt you if necessary.
3. Reboot
4. Open V4A, press the 3 dots at top right, change UI to "Moderate"
5. Swipe to "Headphone" tab, enable master power & playback gain control, scroll to bottom of page, change output gain to +0.8 or +1.6

I tried the V4A version and I must say it did make a bit of a difference in sound boost but one of the main things I use the headphones for at times is making phone calls. When I tried to make a call the volume of the call still sounded low. Is anyone else experiencing this? I have Sirius radio installed and you tube and sound on both definitely improved a bit. I wanted to try the other method by modifiying the path files but I heard some issues causing boot loops and it pretty much scared me away. I'm also still trying to figure out how to install TWRP on my LG G3 since I rooted it manually, I can't figure out how to get it on my device. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Finaly got TWRP on my device.
It's not a problem with the phones volume control but with your hearing ability.
I had hearing tests done last year at the clinic and they said I had very good sense of hearing... kind of a weird thing. Anyways, I can get it to about 75% volume and it's extremely loud. Any more than that is painful.

Hey guys,
atm I'm facing towards a problem like on the screenshots
<---https://goo.gl/photos/UQXesg48QwZLZTyy5--->
I'm not sure how this could happen but i think this is from an xposed module. Someone maybe know what i have to modify to put it right. Atm my minimum volume is 14%. Can't lower the volume from that point.
I tried formatting userdata, system or better said, I clean flashed my phone but this changed nothing actually.

If you're on Open Beta 8 it's a feature of the ROM. I'm not sure why its the case but many people are reporting this, only way to get to vibrate is silent mode.

You can be right, since I'm not sure when this issue started. At OOS3.2.7 i tuned my volume with some xposed modules and after that I flashed the CB3.5.5. Maybe its because I'm using the beta. Can you refer me some points where ppl reporting this? I haven't found anything yet on xda or on the oneplus forums. At the moment I'm using your suggested way for turning the phone into vibrate. Sometimes I want to silent my phone completely and have to go into settings to turn the lever to silent. In some cases really annoying.
kind regards
