How to increase ring volume?

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

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.

Thanks guys for the help.
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.

[Q] Moto Defy with Loud Volume Hack

Hi Did anyone try the Moto Defy with Louder Volume Hack ? If yes, was there any difference?

it doesnt work on any Motorola devices

Did you find a Louder Volume solution for your Motorola Defy?
For me the other people are always a bit quiet in phone calls. I either have to ask them to speak up, or switch to speaker phone and blast everyone nearby with my conversation
Mines currently stock System version:Blur_Version.2.51.1.MB525.Retail.en.IT

Really? I had the voice call volume all the way up yesterday and it almost blew my ear off. In fact, it was so loud I thought I had the speaker phone engaged for a second.

Hi guys,
Thanks for answering. defy is actually a very good phone in terms of speaker / loudspeaker's amplitude, but always felt the absence of an equalizer (The media settings did not help much) - The Louder Volume Hack promised to do a good job of improving the bass frequencies without putting strain on the processor and hence the battery.
I used the app, but to say the truth I did not feel much difference. Also the app did not make much sense to me. Regarding the bluetooth sound, i felt a slight improvement after using the Louder Volume hack app.

+1 Even I thought that the speaker phone was on but found it off! Interestingly, I couldn't hear much when I moved the phone away from my ears!

In my t-mobile UK defy I have some equaliser settings in "Settings, Call Settings, Voice Quality" menu. See if you have that option?

i did adjust the voice quality setting to the one that says "seems louder" but it didn't make a noticeable difference, I still strugle to hear. Dunno if the european motoblur firmware is the issue? Or if phone carrier effects this? I will have to look into that volume hack.

[Q] Increase in-call volume

Is there a way to increase in-call volume past the default maximum? I tried disabling voice privacy, using Volume+ and manually editing build.prop, all to no avail. I'm running the VZW (LTE) Galaxy Nexus.
Thanks!

Wait on Samsung to use decent speakers in the GNEXII?
I agree it's annoying. The speakers (earpiece and external speaker) are junk. Shocked that they actually sourced such crappy hardware for a "flagship" phone.

I think my phone is defective. I can't change the IN CALL volume while on a call. Using the volume rocker, you see it move up and down on the screen but the volume stays the same.

I have the same problem
I'm really frustrated. The in-call volume on my phone is so quiet, I can barely use it unless I'm in a quiet environment. I have installed volume+, which works great to boost sound level of rings, noises, and music playing from the speaker. But the Volume+ settings for bluetooth and in-call do nothing.
It's funny... when I'm on the bluetooth speaker phone for my car and call someone, it's loud for the first ring, and then much quieter from the second ring onward.
If someone could help fix this problem, I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks,
Kevin

I'm still on stock... so that might be my problem. I have a Motorola Oasis BT and love it, but when I hit the button for voice dialer, it's always at half volume. It resets back to that EVERY TIME! I hate that it can't confirm what it thinks I said. I've dialed so many wrong people... UGH! This has to be a Google issue. I only wish CD+ worked with 4.0. The programmer told me there is no way it will ever be updated to work.
The sound volume through the BT is nothing like my EVO. Even my loud talkers I can barely hear now even on the highest settings.
I want to root the device and hope something comes out to fix it. I drive a truck and need to hear without having to pull off the road.

Anyone know.....

An app that lowers the volume of your ringtone while your holding the phone? I remember my EVO 4G would do this. I could have it on its loudest setting, but once I pick up the phone, it would lower it a bit. Obviously, I dont need the full blasting the ringtone super loud, after ive already been alerted that im getting a call. Would be tons helpful!

If you turn the phone face down when you get a call it will lower the ring to very low automatically. It's a built in future.
