[Q] Lowering the incall sound? - HTC One X

As the title says, I'm getting constantly earraped by that speaker, even if it's set to the lowest.

Loved the phrase: earraped.
I know this will sound stupid, but have you tried VOL down key while in call?

this guy is hearing frequencies unknown to the human ear. lol #earman

I literally have to keep the phone 2-3cm away from my ear. And yes I've set the volume on minimal whilst on call
I tried some apps from play store and they all tell me that my in-call volume issues on lowest
I guess I have to hold my phone differently

I also have no in call volume. I assume it's a bug. I am running HD Revolution 6.1 and Franco #9

Same problem here. I don't even have to put the phone in my ear when I talk to my dad.
Also, call volume controls felt unresponsive, even in stock ROM.

Extremely low keypress sound

Even with the media volume to the max, my ear has to literally be on the speaker to hear the slightlest sound from the keyboard. This must be a bug, right?
Key press sounds are tied to phone ringer/notification volume, nit media volume.

With all volumes to the max, the keyboard is still silent
bump....any solutions
Never mind, downloaded audioguru, turned up system sounds now it's more audible. The system volume can't be set more to the minimum by default.
So you have to download a 3rd party app to make a $700 phone work correctly ?

No, but if you want to have your key tones louder it helps. Brand new phone, brand new OS...bound to be some bugs.
But yeah, the phone is useless without loud key tones.
thanks for this.. thought I was losing my marbles

I've had concerns about the volume on this device since i got it last week.
All tones and ringers are ridiculously low.
I tried the suggested audioguru app and have noticed a slight increase in ringer volume but thats about all.
Im surprised the forums are not flooded with posts about the low volume on the nexus.

[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.

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?

Any way to reduce in call volume

Hi Folks,
The lowest setting on my phone is still too loud when I am on the phone call. I have to bring the phone away from my ear cos it's too loud sometimes. Is there a MOD or APP that allows me to do that?
Thanks!
