Notification volume boost? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure of this has been asked before but with my old evo it had audio gains in the kernel. I miss many notifications since switching phones to the epic. Any way to get this on the epic?

Voodoo Sound allows you to control the gain of the headphone amp, but not the speaker (as far as I know).

Volume hack

I don't think an app can make it louder than what is possible using the volume buttons.
You might want to consider active headphones, i.e. with built-in amplification & batteries, perhaps even with noise cancelling. Will be useful beyond your Desire!

In-call sound.

The in-call volume is really really low, is there anyway to solve this?
I was just about to make this topic. Seconded. It's so hard to hear people when in call. There has to be some sort of sound boost.
Nice and simple, nope there is no way to increase the incall volume atm. What might work is that super old trick where you call your voicemail in WM and put it in speaker and then boot into android and that maybe would still work on these builds, don't blame me if I'm wrong because its been months since I've even tried this so good luck if it works for ya

Not yet really. There are rumors of an audio boost of some kind for incall coming soon. U can try the volume controller app from the marketplace and see if that does anything.

I think this has something to do with the missing sound adjustment .csv's in /system/etc. I doubled checked on my G1 running 2.1 and it definitely has them.

Audio Boost changes in kernels

I don't know if I'm alone in this, but the headset volume for music on my EVO is really quiet-- I'd say it's probably 2/3rds of the max volume my ipod touch was capable of.
It seems that there are now several kernels out there that implement Toast's "Audio Boost" changes, which from what I gather came from Geniusdog, who got them from Pershoot in the Nexus One forums.
However, from the thread in which the changes were first introducted in the Nexus forums (and this post in particular) it seems the changes to the MAX_GAIN settings in q6audio.c apply on to IN-CALL volume on the speaker or headset.
After having tried a kernel with the Audio Boost hack, it seems that IN-CALL volume is higher, but there is no discernable volume gain for normal music or non-phone features, which seems to confirm what was stated in the tread above.
Are there any changes that can be made to the kernel to boost headset audio while not in a call? Or has anyone with one of the AUdio Boost kernels noticed higher headset volume outside of calls?
I'm really interested in this as well. I'm using OMJ 3.1 which has kinkclick's kernel #6 I believe. I got all happy about the supposed ability to raise the volume on the phone but haven't found a way to do so...and if the audio gain was implemented on the rom itself already then I don't notice the difference...

Yeah, like I said... I belive the only thing the audio boost in these kernels does is boost IN-CALL volume. I haven't seen anything definative yet, outside of what was posted in the Nexus One forum and my own observations.
Have you tried using headphones for a call and compare the max volume there versus music? I used the Rick Astley prank phone number, and found that being Rick Roll'd over the phone provided much more volume than the same (or any other) audio file on my phone....
Anyone? Can anyone with one of the various Audio Boost kernels (such as those based off of Toast's, or KingKlick's) confirm if they've noticed any boost in volume outside of phone calls?

[Q]How do you edit audio levels? Im trying to make my notification ringers louder

i just left dk28 afterlife viper-rom now im on ec05 but when leaving i seemed my notification ringers went way unbearably lower i believe due to not having the viper-rom volume hack and that hack don't work on ec05 so i need to know how to edit the levels myself or someone can do it for me i tried the voodoo hack but it don't effect the notification ring levels i even asked the creator of the volume hack he chooses to ignore me, so can someone help out?
I looked all over and I think you are just going to have to turn on the vibrate also and hope that helps. I have not seen a fix for this at all. I do know when I first started flashing I did notice my volume being different when I flashed different roms thru my truck stereo but found voodoo which lets you control that. I would have thought if someone can make that happen they could change that also.

this some-what works it does increase the volume of the speaker but when i increase the volume to make the notitfication ringers higher the other ringers go higher as well and since those ringers are already loud it becomes distorted when the additional volume is added......i need to specifically increase the notification ringer volume.

Can we get a volume mod for everything

My calls are too loud most of the tone, even with the volumes all the way down. I just bought an in-line volume controller to adjust my volumes, hopefully that will bring it down more than before. I think that supercurio is inventing controls for the i9100. It would be never if we can at least make a sign that shows that we can mod our audio to do the same thing if not any. I know we have yamaha hardware in our phones, and voodoo sound is produced yamaha, although I know voodoo found aren't dofound in our phones. We probably do have a chance to dev something. Let me know if anything.

Try volume+ from the market, or adjusting the user accessibility setting in the main menu.
Volume + does not show up on my search results for some reason. second, do you know of an accessibility app too download?

My bad, yes it does show up, but it really doesn't work for me, I have root and try to adjust the headset but no progress and the the speaker does work and that is all. In not sure how to adjust the Bluetooth and if possible I'd like too know how to use it. Does anyone have a suggestion?
