Hi,
first of all: I've searched the forum but didn't find anything useful. I must admit that I'm complete illiterate when it comes to roms etc.
Here are the facts: I've got an HTC P3300 (Artemis?). I've updated the software through the official HTC RUU to Windows Mobile 6. The version is CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2). I've installed nothing else myself, so the device is pretty clean.
Here's the question: is there a way to crank up the volume of the ring tones? All other tones, alerts, etc are loud enough but the ring tone volume seems to be softer. Even when I put it to the maximum it still isn't that loud. Is it a known feature or is there a workaround for this?
try different tone!
upgrade the radio? not very likely to do anything?
use the default tone
use the SRS utility of sound enhancement extracted from o2 flame i think i've seen this in the forum somewhere
Thanks for the reply! Here's what I did in the mean time:
- I reset the device (settings->"clear storage")
- I set the ringtone to the Windows Mobile default
The volume is fine now. I don't know what happened the first time...I can only assume that humble old me did something wrong.
Anyway, it seems fine - for now that is. Thanks again.

hi there
after installing B&B4.1 lite (also with 4.0), i cant change phone speaker volume anymore during a phone call. the "switch" works fine, i see the volume indicator on the display changing according to how i press the button, but the volume itself doesnt change at all.
this occurs only during phone calls. i can perfectly set system or ringtone voulme using the same switch.
this is a bit troublesome in very loud or very quiet places, when either i cant hear anything or everyone else hears everything
i know that some others also have this problem when using B&B4.x ROMs. did anyone find a solution for this?
(with my original WM5 rom everything works perfectly.)

Hi There, the only way i could solve this issue was to install B&B4.1 Lite, that problem went away.
not sure what the correct fix for it is sorry.
thx. but that doesnt help me much, since i am already running 4.1 lite (sorry, forgot to mention that)
however, if you had this problem and it went away after installing 4.1 lite, i will investigate in that general direction
I got problem with B&B 4.0
sometime it automatically turn speaker ON, cann't turn it OFF again.
Has anyone come up with a working solution for the low speaker volume during phone calls on the Touch Pro2? Tried the Audiopara tweak, and lost ALL volume on the speaker, Tried changing settings with "HD Tweak", no effect. FWIW, my ringer volume is fine.
Seems like some folks get results, some don't. My hearing is lousy to start with, so I really need to find a working fix, or ditch the phone.
Use this cab and then reboot

Makes the button beeps louder, but completely eliminates all phonecall audio!
Not only that, but deleting the cab didn't restore what little audio I had. Had to do a hard reset!!!
Yea .. I have been strugling with this also .. I have a t-mobile tp2
I updated to the new wwe 6.5
The Volume on the incall / ear speaker isnt loud enough for me
( I work const. And have bad hearing )
I have tried very trick in the book and have goten everything to be louder
but the ear volume LOL the speaker the announcements ect .. are good .. even was able to fix the ringer volume and voice command announcements.
Everything I try screws up the ear volume makes it too soft or to bassy
or just screws it up ..
Anyone have a clue how to fix this ?

Strange, I have it working great and imrpoved the volume a lot!
Perhaps is something related with your ROM
If uninstall not helped, which is strange also, then soft reset and if not hard reset will be the option...
Sorry to hear did not worked for you
I feel your pain, brother! I have 3 of these phones, and am about to give up and sell them because of this stupid problem. What really gets me is that I have seen this same very common complaint (low earpiece volume) with other HTC phones as well. I know of several that have been returned. Don't they pay attention to customer feedback? "Full volume" should be painfully loud, not barely audible. Such a shame to have this be the "deal breaker" for an otherwise great phone.
Some might say to try the SRS WOW HD program, don't do it. It causes lockups and the units don't come out of power down states.
Bump. Bump.

All three have the same issue? Cdma or gsm? My verizon tp2 has very adequate volume and I usually have to have it turned down a notch or two or it is painful to my ear. Same when using the loud speaker. I thought I saw a volume fix cab floating around, might be for specific cdma roms, not sure. I'm wondering if it is more of a gsm v. issue. I agree I have seen this with many diff htc phones, but I can also say I've seen/heard of it with nokia and also other makes. Sorry I have no help, just the comment.

I Need Help With Making My Ringers LOUD!!!!!! LOL and im on 6.5
Related:
I have too LOUD in-call volume from the phone.
Using the built-in volume rocker does NOTHING to the in-call voice volume.
The volume is so excruciatingly painful that I can keep my wired HTC hf set 10cm from my ears and still listen perfectly to the conversation.
Not very practical though.
Is there ANY working solution that makes the Volume controller actually control in-call voice volume during phone calls?
I'm running stock 6.5 ROM with no hacks and no audio related software installed.
Bump
Still hoping for an answer.
Got a Verizon TP2 in March, still using the WinMo 6.1 stock rom. Had an XV6700 and then an SMT5800 (that was a mistake but I digress)
There was a way to use TCPMP and/or MediaPlayer with headphones on the XV6700 and not have the phone ringtone be "active". I can't find that on the TP2. Seems like phone ring is always active unless I have vibrate on, and when I have vibrate on, there's no sound at all.
I'm sure there must be a setting I've missed somewhere? Any help would be much appreciated.
umm im pretty sure this is not possible on the TP2...other windows mobile phones (non htc) without touchflo-sense can do this...on my Incite running wm6.1 it has an option to turn the ringer off/vibrate while i can still listen to music and etc..
ur guess is as good as mine...
hey has anybody got the sound for the rigtones working yet
is there a fix ? patch ? etc....
thanks
search the threads and you will find your answers there.
seriously?
if you want info on whether or not the ringtone/external speaker issue has been solved, check the dev threads. If there is a breakthrough they will all have updated it already since its a problem plaguing all rhodium devices.

Come on, man this was his first post, I understand that it's frustrating when someone posts without having read the stickies, but it's posts like that, which are so decidedly unhelpful.
For example, this is a good response, it berates him for not having read but it also contains USEFUL information:

Ring tones are working
Ring tones are fixed in the latest build as of 08/30/2010, i.e. sound is working in general.
In my case to actually get the handset to ring on incoming calls, I had to conduct the following steps (before that only the silent option was available as a "ring tone"):
go to settings -> Dev tools -> media scanning. Perform media scan. After that the OS restarted and the phone started ringing. Yeah...
cheers
BTW, I just noticed that the media scanning has to be conducted each time one the handset is turned on, otherwise the phone is not ringing.
Can anybody confirm that?
In addition I am not able change the ring tones in settings -> sound -> incoming calls. Why is that and can this be changed?
Has anyone found that if they use their own ringtone, an incoming call only rings once? I've tried converting my ringtones from .mp3 to .ogg but it still only rings once. If I switch to a stock ringer, the an incoming call rings over and over like it should.
ringtones
my tounch pro2 with the latest blazin build will use any mp3 i chose to use as a default ringtone and will ring more than once and play the full song. But on the other hand my other cell has all the same setup but only shows silent only, so it could be just the headset itself and not the build.

It's the card. Format it with the HP tool. Full format. Also, BLAZN is pretty outdated (9.28 was the last update).
can someone help?
i have the desire hd for some time, never really had an issue with it, totally love it
BUT
for some reason, there is no audio when using the dialler
not sure why, i've gone to audio settings on the phone and turned on the feedback (ie, audible touch tones), so not sure why this is till an issue
i'm using a stock standard desire hd, it hasnt been rooted or anything (its also from UK not vodafone au)
can anyone help me work out whats wrong?
no other issues, audio for other stuff is fine?
what could it be?
I've done a restart, i don't really want to restore to factory defaults unless there is no alternative, surely there is a way to troubleshoot first?
also, i have that latest firmware version (v2.2.1)
i did some more digging around
i can actually hear the dial tone, but its very faint, so it must be some volume thats not right, but when i went to the settings, there is all the volume levels at the top level at the moment.
after more googling, someone else had a problem like that, and they installed audio manager which gave the ability to access system volume, when i did that, i could see my system volume was very low, changed it to what i wanted and all is good
so if anyone has this type pf problem, thats what i did to sort myself out.
