[Q] Increase Incall volume - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've searched the forum and found many answers, but none worked for me.
I've rooted HTC Desire 2.3.3. I'd like to increase the incall volume as its not loud enough for me. I'd also like to increase incall volume while making Skype call.
I tried with this app volume+ but it didn't help much.
I once had seen in the forum, replacing some sound profile files in the system partition to increase the volume. I can't find that post anymore. Can anyone help me find that tutorial again. Or if there is any other better way to increase incall volume would be great as well.

I think this in some way has to do with the type of kernel that you are using. I have noticed that ever since i started using bananacakes kernels, my volume is so loud that i reduce it to 50%. Previously I couldnt hear anything.

Touch Pro 2 (Verizon) Call Volume

The volume on the touch pro 2 is great for all features except the actual ear speaker, which seems incredibly quiet. Is there any way to increase the max call volume without increasing the external speaker volume?
This may be possible with manual editing of the Audiopara.csv file (in the windows folder) but I am not sure how to do it without changing the external speaker volume.
Any help would be appreciated.
mine gets really loud when i turn it all the way up
Bump, same question as thread starter.
Any Help yet?
I'm interested in this as well. My incall volume is so low, it's hard to hear. I tried using audiopara3.csv and it didn't do anything at all.

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.

Volume+ semi-functional, still too low in-call volume

Initially, my nexus's speaker volume and incall volume are both really low even at maximum settings. After browsing around xda, I found people recommending volume+ so I paid $1.62 and got the full version. Speaker volume is loud enough now, although I feel the quality is not very good. I don't use speaker to listen to music so it's not a big problem.
There's also in-call volume setting in volume+. I set it to 90 and strange things happens: When I use skype, in call volume is extremely high, I can almost treat it like I'm on speaker. It feels like the settings are working. However, for regular calls, the in-call volume stays the same, still too low for most cases. I can only hear people in quiet rooms. I barely hear anything on a street. Setting in-call volume to other numbers doesn't change the result. So my result is volume+ is only semi-functional. Any other fix for in call volume?
In call volume is the only api not exposed so it cant be increased. Btw everyone goes for volume+ but equalizer by smart apps is free and i much prefer over volume+.
Anybody has any other ideas? Low call volume is really annoying
Still nobody? Everyone‘s incall volume is loud enough?
Basically what the guy above just said:

Just did a test:
Removed in call settings
Speaker to +10
Called *611 (bell customer service) let the automated machine start talking..
Click volume down on rocker a few times then clicked volume up a few times and the sound increasef to am acceptable level.
However when i clicked up one to many times it almost mutes volume but the onscreen indicater is at max (found this odd).
Saw this on the thread you gave. I have the same situation. There exists a maximum in-call volume at around 3/4 of the bar. It's enough for regular use but still a bit low
low volume on calls
Still no one comes with a solution, the volume on the gnex is very low on call especially outside...thanks

I have the same problem using ZTE Blade... volume+ didn't work.
I think there solutions, many roms developer put on their changelog things like "in-call volume boosted" then I ask how you did that and no one anwers...
Anyway I did some research and I found on the rom i'm using a file named libaudio.so that says:
Setting in-call volume to %d (available range is 0 to 7)
Guess that for me increasing steps with volume+ only has efect until 7...
Maybe i'm being stupid... can someone with more experience analyse this?

HTC One X - Mod to decrease the Ringer/Tone and in-call volume in earpiece mode?

Folks,
My apology if this had been asked before.
In earpiece mode:
I always find that even at the lowest level set on HTC One X for the incoming Ringer/Tone and In-Call volume, it's still way too loud for the comfort and health of my ears!
Is there anywhere or anyone here in XDA has a mod that modifed the default lowest volume level to even lower?
Thank you very much in advance!
Cheers!:fingers-crossed:
You kidding me ... I need a mod to increase the in-call earpiece volume ... its a mess after you have used Galaxy S3 ...

Nope he is not kidding.
There is an android bug present for some of us (most of us with good hearing ). On every phone, rom, android version. Where the in call volume is horrible loud.
It gets sometimes down when you first make it UP UP UP, and then down.
Saw some fixes with android codes, but they didn't work for my one X.
Also the reverse mode to make it louder I believe they already exist, you can check the forums.

[Q] Call volume issues

I know this has been an issue for a lot of people by searching the forums, but I was wondering if anyone has had any success at all in boosting the in-call volume to an audible level on the Galaxy Nexus with JB installed? I've tried using a custom kernel (Franco and Trinity), NexusLouder MOD, the build.prop settings, all to no avail. I can hardly listen to the other person within a phone call, unless its in a quiet room. One anomaly I have noticed is that the in-call volume is louder one step down from the maximum, which is a bit odd. I know its listed as a bug in the Google Code database, but how widespread is the problem? It's pretty hard to classify it as a phone when you can't hear phone calls.
