Major Ring & System Volume Increase on T-Mobile Touchpro2 - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hey Guys It appears that I'm not the only one who feels TP2 volume is a little on the low side. For some it may be just fine. I have installed attached Audiopara4 file on my T-Mobile TP2 and man it makes it SUPERLOUD. The only problem is that while it increases the ringer and system volume substantially when I call someone they can't hear me on the other end. I was wondering if any of you TP2 Specialist (Smile) could take this file and experiment with it a little and see if someone could tweak it so we can enjoy the SUPERLOUDNESS
The Audiopara3 file that someone has already supplied for our phones is ok, but once you install this one its MEGA. I've attached the file below along with Audiopara3 zip just in case someone wants to revert back during the experiment. Thanks for your help.

Hmmmmmmm I tried the AudioPara 3 cab a while back and it increased the InCall volume significantly, are both of those files needed?
Only advice I could give is to try another radio if there not able to hear you on there end.

Just the AudioPara4 file is to be experimented with. I attached the AudioPara3
file for those that need to revert back to original Audiopara3.cvs file already in TP2 windows directory. I'm currently using radio 4.46.25.24 and it appears to be ok. Have you tested AudioPara4 yet?

hey there
i have 2 questions 1 does this increase bluetooth vol? i noticed a slight change in speakerphone vol.. but not much on my stereo bt ... and 2 with these csv files .. do i delete the other ones in the windows folder? i have:
AudioPara.csv
AudioPara3.csv
AudioPara3_ATT.csv
AudioPara3_Boot.csv
AudioPara3_TMO.csv
and now..
AudioPara4.csv
.... ?

I have not, what are the differences from Audio3?

Hi, I'm a complete newb and I'd like me TP2 to have louder rings and system sounds, especially the speakerphone. Only problem is I have the Verizon TP2 Global version with both CDMA and GSM capability. Am I in the wrong area, if so could you point me in the right way. Oh, I live in Southern California and just purchased my Verizon TP2 about a week and a half ago.
TIA

major ringtone system volume increase. Mega.

I am afraid of blowing a speaker?? Has this happened to anyone?

It has not cabranscom, blowing your speaker would only be possible if you raised the volume to max everytime when using the speakerphone which you'd then be damaging your ears as well lol

I still feel like mine is rather quiet as well, particularly the earpiece. Where did you get this Audiopara4 file?

jcc332006,
Did you ever get the Audiopara4 to work properly. I really like the super loudness of all the system sounds on my TouchPro2, but when I turn on the speaker for a phone call, I just get hiss and crackles. Back on the standard Audiopara3 for now.

Increase Volume on Tilt2?

Has anybody found a reliable and bug-free way to increase volume on the Tilt2 for headset and speakerphone? There are a lot of threads out there discussing audiopara files, but it is somewhat confusing to figure out which ones to use.
Dear Germanguy,
I succesfully boosted my Phone's Earpiece by modifying the audio para,
Beware the SPEAKER is boosted ASWEL! And I'm not responsible for any possible loss of warenty, damage, NOTHING!
Tell me if you like it
you can try the "audio para" cab i dont know the link but you can search for it in "tricks & cabs" . it worked for my TP2...Tj
how do you install this? it's not a cab?

Unfortunately this did not change anything on my Tilt2. Thanks anyway. Anybody else have had success with increasing volume on the ATT Tilt 2?
Does the audiopara3 file also increase mic sensitivity??
This worked for me with no ill effects so far.

Anyone Ever Solve TP2 Volume Problem?

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
It worked great for me

I updated to the new wwe 6.5
The Volume on the incall / ear speaker isnt loud enough for me

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 ..

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.
Ringtone Gets Loud In The End
My Ringtone Is Low In The Beginning But At The End Of The Ringer Its A Real Loud Increase In The Sound. I Tryed The Rhodium Audio Parameters And The AudioPara3. Should I Try AudioPara4???? Im on Radio 4.49.25.17 And Under Software Info It Says...

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.

Ring volume too low..

Hey guys,
I hope I'm not the only one, but for all of you that have an "ORIGINAL" ring sound, is it low when you receive a call?
I have the ring volume at MAX and I'm using a "office ring" ringtone, but it's just soooo low and can barely be heard when placed in a holder and in my pocket.
When I searched this forum, I found this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581477&highlight=ring+volume . Could this really be the cause of the problem? I do in fact have vibrate and ring, but I use the custom "av1pr" sequence that people from the Jade threads mentioned.
Hopefully there's a solution! Thanks!
ok i did a lot of testing and found out the vibrate has nothing to do with the ring volume
the system sound volume seems to be controlling the ring volume even when i separate the volume controls (one for ring, one for system).
i dont like the system sound loud, but i have no choice because the ring is very very low even at 100%
any of you guys have this problem or know a fix?
thanks
For a past phone, I had copied the ringer sound file that I liked to my PC, used a free audio recording/editing program and re-recorded the sound with a louder volume. Then, I copied the new sound file back to the phone and pointed the phone to it.

I actually used the "registry" fix from the link, but where could I find a program that could increase the volume of a sound clip?
My sound is still a bit low.
I used the "Sound Recorder" which comes with Windows.

The feature I want the most...even before sound and camera

First of all, I love Android on my Sprint Touch Pro2. The work being done here is awesome. It turns my phone into such an awesome toy.
The one thing keeping me from using Android more is the in call volume. It's just too low. It makes it so I can't really use the phone as a phone. I know this has been brought up before...but its the one feature I'm looking forward to the most....The ability to crank up the in-call sound. Anyone else agree?
Agreed. When I know I am going to need to make a couple calls I always switch back to winmo. In call volume is too low to use in a car or any public place.
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
+1
in call sound is the only reason i boot into winmo
i dont use sound for anything in winmo, i've never heard my ringtone and rarely use it for music or video), but the call volume needs work
Incoming call volume seems to be better than outgoing. anyone else having the same behavior?
that is sound
first of all that does deal with sound if you read up they dont know why the in call sound works at all it just did so to get it to be louder they need the sound to work first so yeah they should get fixed at the same time
My in call volume in WM is low too. Everything audio is low I noticed for the TP2.
I agree too. The call sound is more important than the other features. Winmo sound is fine for me. Can hardly hear in Android.
We realize the issue, but complaining about it doesnt help the situation, do some research and possibly you could fix it. You guys give the Devs no credit at all. Appreciate what is working.
I gotta say i'm pretty impressed with it (of course i'm starting with the latest build and so a lot of the earlier things have been worked out) I'm amazed that it's more snappy than the native wm 6.5, I give a lot of credit to the Devs and looking forward to testing out the other features, it's really breathed new life into my TP2 i'm happy to kick WM6.5 to the curb.
Well you got what you asked for. Supposedly the In-call volume issue has been fixed with the latest zimage update. I've yet to verify it (Updating at the moment)
Yeah!
Wow, that's awesome. The sound is really loud now. A huge improvement. Thanks to whoever made this happen!
i know im gonna get blasted for this but i guess i might not have searched hard enough. Can someone post a link for the Zimage update to help the sound?
No problem. It's all in the Project Tracking section of the webpage: http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/project-tracking
and right under "Current Kernel Build" is where you will find all the latest zimage updates and it's instructions on how to update it. If I'm not mistaken doesn't the Update Utility work? I wouldn't know since I barely use it.
Also in a few days the package will get updated to include the latest zimage incase your still having problems with it. You may need 7-zip http://www.7-zip.org/ for extracting the contents to your Windows PC. If your unsure which type of windows you have then you most likely have the 32-bit version.

Anyway to boost phone sound?

Some of you may have this problem, some of you may not, but me and my cousin have this problem with our G2 where the sound from the other line is very quiet for us when we use the phone... as a phone. So what I want to know is, is there any way to increase the sound on for this? Do we have defected phones?
I have this problem as well. In call volume is maxed out but it doesn't sound very loud at all.
I have root access with CM 6.1.0 RC3.
My calls are loud and clear. Its the speaker phone thats low for me.
Does it happen with all calls incoming and out going?
Also are you on wifi?
How is your signal strength?
Same with me my speak phone volume is lower than I would like it, but head set speaker loud and clear

Yes, it's all of the calls that I make and receive. I'm never on wifi and my signal strength during the calls are all good. It may be just me also, but the G2 mic may be quiet also because when I call my cousin he sounds like he's whispering to me but when I call someone else their sound is just quiet, but enough to hear it with a small bit of background noise. I haven't asked him how the sound was when I called him since it's something I just noticed.
Mine's a little soft as well. It kinda sucks that one of the few flaws with this phone is it's use as a phone, lol.

You sure the phone volume is up? Also have you called Tmobile about this?
I have had mine for a little over a month and it is loud and clear, I have no issues hearing anyone, and no one has issues hearing me... really good sound quality imo. I am on stock rom still. Speakerphone is very weak for me as well.
Yeah, in call phone volume is incredibly weak for me. Going to try to boot into stock and see what happens. Is there an app to make the volume louder? Or some way we can change it?
EDIT: Okay. Turns out that I am an idiot. Phone is still new for me so I left the default protective screen on. As soon as I took that off, phone calls were a lot more clear. Just ordered a proper screen protector so I just have to be careful until then haha. Don't know if this will help out anyone but hey, figured I let you guys know.
You know, the real problem with the G2 is HTC quality control on those. I'm on my second G2...the call volume is way lower than my first one...
also the keyboard is a LOT better on the second one, I didn't care at all about the keyboard on my first G2, as the keys were very recessed and didn't have a real "feedback", so I never used it. Made me think the whole keyboard thing about the phone was useless, now I'm in love with it.
My problem is the hinge on the second G2 is much looser than the first one.
If you bought yours recently, just exchange it.

Anyone try this app Louder Volume Hack v4.1?
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.AutoMod
I came from an HTC Aria and had the same in call sound trouble, then I tried Louder Volume Hack v3.6 but no luck, did not work.
Instead after some other searching I found a XDA forum that suggested turning on the TTY for the Hearing Impaired option in the Aria and waa-laa ---it worked. Apparently though, this TTY / Hearing Imparied option does not exist in the SOUND settings for the Z.
So, still looking for idea on the in call volume boost.

Theres an app called DSP Manager on CM 6.1.1 that i used to up the voume a whole lot. It comes already installed when you install that rom.
My speaker works great except during a call. I can't hear a thing from it when on a call however. It must be a software issue, then. I started a thread a bit back, but with no luck. I hope we can find a fix.
my in ear sound isnt that loud either.
Ok...regarding the app called DSP Manager on CM 6.1.1, I checked into this, but is appears it only helps on the "media" volume but NOT the phone speaker or in call volume for when the phone is to my ear during a call.
Can you advise, is DSP Manager helping for this in call volume?
Ok...
I found 3 different versions of DSP manager and frankly am afraid to install w/o having a little more dialog with some of you that may be wiser than me.
The three files are attached and as listed are:
DSPManager120210_ALL.zip
DSPManager_080910.apk
DSPManager_100810.zip
The DSPManager120210_ALL.zip file came from this link and appears to the the latest
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_DSPManager
The APK file came from this XDA link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=750765
Anyway, after looking at the DSPManager_100810.zip file in unzipped mode, the file structure is different than the other zip file, which makes me a little nervous to flash uisng ROM Manager of Clockworkmod.
Meanwhile, I may install the APK file because I can easily uninstall if there is no improvement in the IN CALL VOLUME.
Any insights are welcomed.
Well I dove in and thank goodness for NAND backups...
Here is the deal (as of 12/31/10 4:05 PM EST):
- DSPManager120210_ALL.zip DID NOT FLASH
- DSPManager_080910.apk INSTALLED BUT NO CHANGE ON MY DESIRE Z A7275
- DSPManager_100810.zip FLASHED BUT NO EAR PEICE SOUND NOR SPEAKER SOUND
Now as of 12/31/10 4:11 PM EST in an restoring from my 12/31/10 10:00 AM EST NAND backup.
Gosh I hate doing this trial and error stuff, talk about a heart attack.
Will update after I complete my full restore and hope all is back in fully operational order.
==========================================================================
UPDATE....FULLY RESTORED 4:21 PM EST...PHEW!!
Thank you Koushik Dutta for clockworkmod!!!
