Headphone volume - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed a huge difference in the volume on headphones and earbuds on our phones compared to ipods. The ipod is Soooo much louder!! I read somewhere that it was determined by the kernel or is it just hardware capabilities? Is there some way to make it as loud?

I have seen an audio boost kernel around, a quick search should turn it up.

Power amp?
I propose a toast to the 21st century.

Would it be compatible with warm z though?

Not sure, I don't remember if its a sense or aosp kernel..

I'm interested as well...poweramp only does so much until the amplification starts interfering

Try downloading the app called DroidShuffle. You can also set up the clicks for different actions

Use cm7 or decks and I would assume the problems will go away

Playing music through headphones + speaker?

Is there an app that allows me to listen to music through my headphones and phone speaker at the same time? Is this even possible?

I've searched it on google and there was one thread that had that title but the website wouldn't open so I couldn't really tell what it was. But I do think its possible.

Yeah I got that app and had the same problems, ditched it, although the features and concept were really nice.. You would think google would fix their terrible contact photo resolution and implement something like that too..

**UPDATE** Bring life to your music

Check out the rezound beats in the skyrocket forums. Just flash the zip for either AOKP/CM10 and listen to the BEST your phone will ever sound. Unlike the half decent beats or DSP manager, this is INCREDIBLE.
****Check the last post for the update***

If u know how to eq music this will never be a problem
Lol I know how to equalize music because I'm a music artist and love to tweak. I'm just saying this installs better drivers into the phone itself and comes with an eq that is just amazing. Thanks for the comment though.
Lol check it out seriously.

Installed on xperiarom. Try it out on the way home from work later.

Oh and I don't know what difference it made because i didnt hear it before, but right after flashing I added the extra build props it recommended.

My sound goes out after flashing this... Not right away though, after about an hour

Which ROM are you using?? It hadn't been tested on CM9 yet.
And did you add the build.props to the phone or was it installed without?

Scroll a little from the top of the thread and you'll see in red lettering "official release v1.0" under that you will see AOKP and CM10 under each of the names there is a drop box link to each of the files.

Running jovy's Extremeperia , i downloaded the cm10 version and i had to add the build.prop , didnt test without adding it but im pretty sure u will have to manually add it to get the most out of it.

I flashed aokp jb and added the build props and couldn't replicate the issue. I'm sorry to hear it didn't work for you...
And hope that works, that's the one I'm currently using but I'm on CM10 it should work.

I installed it and did the build props but all it added was the Dolby app and the audio FX setting.
I thought i t was supposed to add an EQ or something. I don't hear any change in sound quality from the speaker or with my headphones.

How does this compare to awesome beats? I can play with any equalizer to optimize my music but i like awesome beats' bass boost for my subs, it gives it that lower hum without the hard thump.

Honestly I think this gives a better sound quality overall. And as for the bass I've got to say that this EASILY beats out the beats audio with any kind of bass you're looking for. Bass is deep and strong and the bass boost is ridiculous how much of a boost it gives with clarity to add.
My advice is make a backup and check it out. No guarantees but damn you'd be missing out if you didn't at least try.
