Anyone know of a mod or app to increase the volume output on my desire hd. I also have a Samsung galaxy s and the volume on that is double that of my desire hd.
I also keep missing calls because the max volume isn't high enough.

you can use DSPmanager if your phone is rooted. DSPmanager helps to increase the volume for calls, media etc.... there is a thread about it on the HTC Desire HD development forum.
alternately you can download a sound editor program on your pc, increase the loudness of the ringtone/music and upload the edited version back on the phone.
Thanks for the reply ill give dspmanager a go now.
Thanks again Dan
Seem to remember that ROMs for other devices had similar problems, and that it may be possible to edit libadudio.so and some other files, but since I'm not a developer I don't know if it is true.
Is DSP manager the only solution?
I often have problems with hearing what the person on the other side says.
This should have been reported to HTC, as I have not had this problem before with other phones. (Not even the HTC Magic)
But isnt it confirmed that DSP Manager drains the battery??
Dspmanager might cause higher then usual battery drain on cyanogenmod, not sure if it affects sense roms.

DSPManager does cause higher drain some people have even reported 3 times the normal drain.
Than DSP even though it solves the problem for me, is not a good solution.
I have managed to live with the volume for a couple of months now, but I hope that there is an other solution on the way.
I have had this too, i can "fix" it by rebooting, or playing music with the HTC music player and then changing the equalizer settings (from dolby and back)

Hello, does anyone know if there is a volume limitation (usually there is due to european legislation, don't know in the US).
If so is there a tweak to increase the volume (of the speaker mostly, and also earphones)?
I do not use it to play music out loud (i hate those doing it) but sometimes i miss some calls when in a noisy/crowded place, even with the vibrate and the "increase when in pocket" option. My remedy for now is to increase the gain of an audio mp3 with Audacity, and set it as a rigtone (i put it in /ringtones/ on the sdcard) it works but with a lot of distorsion...
PS: I'm on Virtuous 1.0.1
There are apps that can do this.. one is called dspmanager.apk and comes with cyanogenmod... but they all cause distorton..

Only distortion if you don't know what your doing..
Open Dspmanager than enable equalizer, increase each bitrate of the EQ slightly.
Put the signal strength to moderate than play a song with a lot of bass to test.
If its distorted, decrease the bit rate or turn signal strength to slightly.
I combine dspmanager with power-amp for some insane eq.
thanks i didn't know about this app, somehow it does on the phone what i was doing with Audacity.
My question still remains, is there any hint of some AVLS on the G2?
Well PowerAmp is a must for me when playin music thru my headphones. Like previous post says, DSP Manager is the fix. Just dont try and overdo the settings.
Hey
One of the reasons I switched to CM7 is that the audio level output and quality was unacceptable for me on the Desire Z's stock release. CM7 included DSPManager which made the volume alot louder and the sound quality clearer.
My question is that can I install DSPManager on Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 and if so, how?
Thanks.
If you use the HTC music player, you can turn on SRS WOW and adjust the equalizer (accessed by pressing Menu, and Sound enhancer in the music player). But I'm not clear whether its just for HTC music player, or affects sound in other apps. I assume it just affects the music player.
You should just be able to flash the DSP Manager APK in Gingerbread, according to the post below. But I haven't tried it. Unlike Froyo, where you had to flash some .lib files in Recovery, this should install/uninstall easily. But you can always do a nandroid backup before installing, just to be safe.

There are also a variety of apps on the Market that do similar things. I'm using Volume+, and it works pretty well with Unity. Similar to DSP Manager, you can setup different volume boost and equalizer settings for speaker, bluetooth, and headphones. I agree the volume on the Unity ROM is way too low. Volume+ helps quite a bit for me, but it could still stand to be a bit louder (still not as loud as stock).
I can confirm it works on coredroid. Nandroid and flash it. Might save the trouble waiting for responses

On a Gingerbread ROM, all you need to do is download and flash the APK.
Thanks ,it worked ,but it actually makes bass worse :s
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
What do you mean "worse"? You need to describe your issue better. Not as much bass tone? Try manipulating the equalizer curve.
Volume+ is an app that is similar to DSP Manager. If DSP Manager is still not doing the trick, you might give Volume+ a try. It lets you increase volume, as well as an equalizer, and separate bass level adjustment. It might work better for you. Its a paid app on the Market, but free from the Developer's website:

i have used volume+, dont like it. basically, with CM7, dsp manager makes the bass MUCH more powerful in my Studio Beats, whereas with this dsp manager, it seems to be weaker, and ive tried all of the options.
Hi,
I have the One X and unless you have earphone's plugged in (really nice sound and loud).
It's the external speaker that is pretty quite, is there any apps or anything I can do to make it louder.
New to Android sorry
Thanks
Graham
I thought it was loud, at least louder than DHD and Sensation,no?
Here you go the usual apps:
-Volume+ by meltus
-DSP Manager
DSP manager works better I think on Sense 4.0, just raise the treble in the equaliser.
Don't install both, it will do FC

Any luck with the apps? I find it quiet too.... Also in the car for navigation the max volume is too quiet....
Is your phone rooted or not? Not sure if it has to be to sort the volume out?
Thanks.
Yeah, external speaker of one x is lame compare to my old phone Sony arc. I tried playing the same mp3 song with them at same time both on maximum volume and really noticed the big difference.

Volume+ can boost it a bit (not by very much though, DSPManager will probably be a little louder on this phone). The only problem is that the speakers crackle and 'pop' after a sound is played, probably a combination of firmware and terrible quality HTC speakers.
I have noticed that something is compressing the hell out of the external speaker too (probably 'beats'), which seems to be limiting the volume.

Hi,
I am using DSP manager and it has made a difference, unlike volume+ it doesn't over do it and sound like it's going to damage the speaker.
The thing that annoys me is plug headphone's in and it is so loud and a brilliant sound for a phone.
My phone is rooted but I don't think it needs to be done.
Thanks
Graham
It's not as loud as Xperia S for sure (the loudest Android phone ever) but it's louder than Sensation and Nexus 1 out of the box.
I don't have a One X yet but tried it in several shops,volume+ and DSP will surelly give the extra power to hear your phone ring in the busy streets.
Graham good to see you resolved it
Thanks, want to try dsp manager.... Is it not on the market or?
Hi everyone,
Is there any compatible add-on of xLoud sound enhancement that can be applied to Desire HD's ICS ROM?
Last month, when I was still running my phone with Android2.3.4+Sense3.0
I flashed the xLoud Engine made by Pacha, and it worked GREAT!
Sound improvements for phone speakers are easily noticed.
Currently, my phone is running Blackout's V3.0 which contains Android4.0.4+Sense3.6
flashed the same add-on and my phone can't boot anymore, guess it might be compatibility issues
So...is there anything that can improve the phone speaker volume while running ICS?
I tried DSP Manager, headset effects are great, but for phone speakers...well...
I wouldn't post this thread if it works...
If there's anything out there that can help to improve phone speaker volumes
Let me know! I need it desperately:crying:
does anyone has any info on this?
I also look for the solution to improve loudspeaker sound issue.
It's quite small in call hand-free and ringtones that make many lost calls when walking around crowded people

Has anyone noticed the increase in the sound output after JB update? I have seen a massive improvement and the music quality has also improved drastically. Bass is also impressive now. The headphones are now blasting with music... Please share your thoughts...
I have also noticed that the browser does not reload after reopening while multi tasking. These two are the best updates for me in JB...
So multi-tasking is for real this time.
How about music chopping with default player. Haven't read a solution about it before?
Am on the music player for past 2 hrs now, and haven't had any choppiness at all. Although this was an issue even I faced intermittently.
I was also experiencing choppiness in the default music player and Youtube before the update. Now I haven't experienced them so far..
The music player has just become so awesome!! HTC has managed to make gapless play onto to the new update,,which is something that music lovers love the most... :thumbup: And the beats audio equaliser has been redefined,,and music is more loud as well as sharp... I could hear even the smallest of music with my headphones on... Even it did some magic with the speaker.. even though it doesn't have a built in amplifier like the 8x,, it is giving more loudness than before.. HTC has given the best update till yet... :thumbup: Hoping for more..

All sounds amazing thanks for info can't wait for update to reach me. I just wondered, can anyone confirm plz USB OTG is a reality?

I'm using pro player and the stock music player. Maybe the headphones I have are making a difference in sound including the loudness... Glad to know that wifi direct is working...
