Hi,
I just wondered if you can set volume for the integrated hands free function of the artemis. When you turn on this function, volume is too high. You can't change the volume. Any ideas?
Do you mean the hands-free that comes in the box? It has a small side slider for volume adjustment.
I mean the integrated hands free function. It's activated by pressing and holding the green phone button.
That's the speakerphone. Actually u can lower the volume a bit with the volume adjustment but even at its lower setting its rather loud.
On the other hand I usualy activate the speakerphone in the car where there is a lot of noise so its not a problem.
Maybe someone else knows how to lower it still, yet u wouldnt want a speakerphone u can't hear unless u put it beside your ear.
Yes, the speakerphone, sorry .
It's very loud. Perhaps someone knows the registry settings ?!
I have the same problem. Even on when the volume slider is all the way down, the speakers start to make a cracking noise and is too loud.

Hello,
If I use the volume control slider on the left side and reach the maximum volume position I get a loud beep. I'm not talking about in-call volume , just what you get when you change volume - let's say at your today screen.
Unfortunately I can’t find both a solution already published at the forum or the registry setting to suppress this beep. Is there anyone who knows how to turn the beep off?
Thanks,

Ive been searching everywhere for this but either nobody has thorght about it or its not possible.
with my Touch HD the volume is far to loud to listen to music as background music or through earphones and the HTC volume control step size for the volumes is too big. its either off, medium, loud or very loud!
the default WM6.1 control is even worse!
i know that you can use your finger to adjust the HTC volume control but this still isnt sensitive enough for me.
and i also know that it is possible to adjust the volume through tweak HD or advanced config. only problem with that is that I want to be able to chose to listen to very quite music or turn it up very loud without having to go through one of those settings.
so i was wondering if anybody could make a program that either has a large step size or a user defined step size for the volume and that is activated/volume through the volume buttons.
Thanks!
P.S sorry if this is in the wrong section or if there is a requests thread but i couldnt find it.
Ok i havnt found exactly what i wanted but i did find this:
http://handheld.softpedia.com/progDownload/Volume-Control-Download-35536.html
this is an aplication which lets you choose the volume with 100 steps. and it works from the system volume so using somthing like nitrogen or media player there is another 100 steps giving me 10000 steps haha
the bad points are that you must go into filemanager and manualy start it. and even then it does not work with the volume buttons.
(if anyone knows of a way to start this when powering on the device that could be useful!)
its good but not ideal.
if anyone else can come up with somthing better speak up!
create a shortcut to the exe and add it to /device/windows/startup ?
Yep, would be nice if the volume rocker can use this little tool.
Hello,
Any news on that topic ?
Thanks
I have the same problem, i think the stepsize can be changed in the registry but i dont know where i could find this.
Just to let you know the Volume rocker switch adjusts sound in 3 steps at a time. But during music play back you can use finger or stylus to adjust volume bargarph displayed on the htc HD screen in single step and thus volume is more finely controlled. There is no need to make registry changes.
The problem is, if youre using the E100 headset (or just want to press a button in your pocket to adjust volume) it would be nice if it'd adjust 1 step instead of 3 when pressing volup or voldown..
If youre moving and just want to adjust volume its really annoying to get your phone out of your jacket/pocket, pull out your stylus and lower your volume to 1..... might be just me that is a lazybones, but still!
With Good intra headset, even one bar is too much. Is it a WM limitation that the stepsize is that big ?

The actual problem is that 1 bar (out of the 15 available), ie the quietest setting the system is capable of, is TOO loud. I wouldn't dare use headsets at 10 bars (out of 15), the sound level would blow my eardrums out.
What we'd like to do is change the "range" of volume output - so that the output power is a LOT lower at low settings, while remaining loud enough for public broadcast (ie from the speaker on the back) at higher settings.
Anyone?
Same issue here. The minimum volume is still way too high. It's a waste of battery and could hurt your ear if you use in-ear earbuds.

As an addition.... I think this "too much volume" thing is something to do with the HTC TF3D music player itself.
On my (stock Rom) HD - I can listen to the FM radio at "normal" volume levels (ie about halfway up the range), but with the TF3D player - I have to turn it right down again.
Haven't tested it with other players (eg TCPMP).
Another request for a better solution to volume control.

I have the same problem, ever since getting a set of in-ear MM50 (Sennheiser).
Too loud!
Any ideas?

You may edit the registry file:
Local_machine\software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\SavedHand SetVolume
Change DWORD to 0
(soft-reset not needed)
plug in the headphone and adjust the system volume (press the volume button on side of the device and adjust the volume that is most soothing through the headset and it will memorize it! Once you pull out the headset the volume through the system speaker will be amplified as set by step 2 below. Plugin the headset again and the vol. will revert back to the headset volume level that you adjusted above).
You can always increase or decrease headset volume using the volume switch from this point and this new level you used is memorized during next headset insertion and automatically adjusted.
Step2,
This will tweak the volume that you want when headset is not plugged in.
But remember this will be the maximum volume through the speaker and you can only decrease it using the device volume button, not increase it.
You may have to experiment a few times until you get to a satisfactory volume level (don't forget to soft-reset after tweaking each time. I found 40 to be quite reasonable.
Local_machine\software\HTC\AudioManger_eng\Config\ music_player_volumn
Change the DWORD to 10 (you may have to adjust it to suit the volume you want when the headset is unplugged. In fact 10 is too low and I found 40 to be more reasonable) or lower(I think even 10 is too low!) and soft-reset the device.
the music will become lighter in the TouchFLO3D music player
I did both of the above steps and it solved the problem dramatically! It works even if you are using other software players(windows media player etc)

i just proud of my name is being posted by other
None of these thins work with noise isolating headphones where 1 bar is too loud. As soon as the phone starts to ring you are deafened as the volum is A LOT LOUDER than the music. I have the same problem with WMP as I can set a low volume in system, 3 bars, and 15-40% in WMP or an other program and the music is fine but as soon as the phone rings it absolutely kills!
man if someone solves this they'll make a few insta-friends !
We need a fix.
Many this app will help some, if not all of you !
It's a freeware developed by a member of this forum and it serves the simple purpose of allowing to set "volume steps" and replacing the default volume window. It's brilliant.
Work is still in progress, but it's already a must have at this point

hello everybody,
Sorry if this has been already discussed, I've searched the forum but couldn't find any answer!
My ring volume is low, sometimes the vibration makes louder "noise" than the ring itself, no matter what ringtone I set. All the time the ring volume is set to maxim and I try to use only built in tones.
Any ideea how to increase the volume? Does the speaker tweak work also for this (the Audio3 para file)?
Many thanks,
Radu
my speaker is loud as ****!!! are you sure you don't have a bad speaker? time for a warranty exchange?
I agree. It does sound like you have a bad speaker. On max volume, my device is quite deafening (I usually set it down a notch).
Try playing a song at max volume without headset connected so that it'll play through the rear speakers. If the volume is satisfactory, then it's probably a software fault somewhere (ring volume vs device volume?). If the volume is still soft, then you've got a bad speaker.
Thanks
Thank you for your answers.
I did some test and I really hope it's not a speaker problem. During a phone call, on speaker, I could listen very well outside, in a crowded & noisy space. Only the ring tones seems to be lower volume, at least for my ears.
ring
i am hv
aving the same problem. mine worked great till the phone froze up and then it reset it self, and all my info was gone and the ring volume was weak.
will keep looking but thinking i will have to reflash the unit
have you installed any program?
have you installed any program before this? I realized my problems might have come from KeepMyRingTones app... after a hard reset sound seems to be better, but still not as I wanted to be.
Same problem here...I wish the ringer was really loud. I used to have a nokia n82 and really loved the ringer and speaker volumes on it. Hoping Windows 6.5 will improve the ringer on this phone.
Try installing SRS Wow HD or HDTweak
Both have increase in volume settings
I've seen multiple posts here and across the web regarding increasing the volume of the speakers, earpiece and headset volume. The problem is that those who have sensitive hearing often want the opposite and we are in the minority.
Being that the changes require using HEX instead of decimals, I made all the changes to the file and attached it here.
The file attached has all the volume headset levels at 50% their original. I was on a 1hr 35min call with my brother. After that call, I had no headaches, earaches, nothing. My bro was watching Yankees and clapping, yelling in his mic and I had no problems.
Enjoy!!
why wouldn't someone just use the volume buttons to lower their volume? I know that's what I do.
I mean, the plus side to being able to have the volume normal or above is when you are in a crowded place yourself you can hear what the other person is saying right? I just cant see the plus side to having the volume permanently at 50%. Mind you I can see it being a pain in the butt to constantly have to adjust the volume down. Actually now that I think about it when you are in a call and you adjust the volume doesn't it automatically remember the setting you had it at so when the next call you have comes in its the same? It probably resets its self if you restart the phone.
Regardless... for anyone who does want this you have likely just saved them a TON of tinkering so good work!

I understand where you are coming from but I did not lower the volume by 50% for ALL audio output on the device. The way the CSV file is setup, you can increase/decrease volume using hexadecimal values to different audio output ports (earpiece, headset/audiojack, hands-free bluetooth, and speaker). I did not modify the earpiece, hands-free, or speaker. I just decreased the connected headset audio. It seriously was giving me headaches because it was too loud and the volume dial at the lowest was still unbearably loud. I personally don't want to go deaf so I made the revision.
I may do some more tweaking and increase the earpiece and speaker volume as the earpiece is way too low and the speaker could be a little bit louder.
Life is about balance. Sure ice cream tastes great but if you had more than you could eat all the time, you would probably start to hate it.
this is exactly what i was searching for! i use in-ears and they are way to loud when doing a call. thank you!
Initially, my nexus's speaker volume and incall volume are both really low even at maximum settings. After browsing around xda, I found people recommending volume+ so I paid $1.62 and got the full version. Speaker volume is loud enough now, although I feel the quality is not very good. I don't use speaker to listen to music so it's not a big problem.
There's also in-call volume setting in volume+. I set it to 90 and strange things happens: When I use skype, in call volume is extremely high, I can almost treat it like I'm on speaker. It feels like the settings are working. However, for regular calls, the in-call volume stays the same, still too low for most cases. I can only hear people in quiet rooms. I barely hear anything on a street. Setting in-call volume to other numbers doesn't change the result. So my result is volume+ is only semi-functional. Any other fix for in call volume?
In call volume is the only api not exposed so it cant be increased. Btw everyone goes for volume+ but equalizer by smart apps is free and i much prefer over volume+.
Anybody has any other ideas? Low call volume is really annoying
Still nobody？ Everyone‘s incall volume is loud enough?
Basically what the guy above just said:

Just did a test:
Removed in call settings
Speaker to +10
Called *611 (bell customer service) let the automated machine start talking..
Click volume down on rocker a few times then clicked volume up a few times and the sound increasef to am acceptable level.
However when i clicked up one to many times it almost mutes volume but the onscreen indicater is at max (found this odd).
Saw this on the thread you gave. I have the same situation. There exists a maximum in-call volume at around 3/4 of the bar. It's enough for regular use but still a bit low
low volume on calls
Still no one comes with a solution, the volume on the gnex is very low on call especially outside...thanks

I have the same problem using ZTE Blade... volume+ didn't work.
I think there solutions, many roms developer put on their changelog things like "in-call volume boosted" then I ask how you did that and no one anwers...
Anyway I did some research and I found on the rom i'm using a file named libaudio.so that says:
Setting in-call volume to %d (available range is 0 to 7)
Guess that for me increasing steps with volume+ only has efect until 7...
Maybe i'm being stupid... can someone with more experience analyse this?
