Please someone help me as when on call I have to push the phone as hard as i can to hear clearly when in a crowd. The volume is full bur it is not loud enough. Any one have a solution s with any software or hack so that I can increase my ear speaker volume
Thanks in advance.
This may sound like a stupid question, but have you tried restarting your device?
I recently got the AT&T One X and after using it a couple days I noticed the volume decreased even with all volume setting set to 100% and after I restarted it the volume increased.
I think i have the same issue.
Or
i am getting deaf.
My previous phone SGS2 used to be louder.
My HTC Inspire 4G was louder then my One X
Same problem with my One X very low sound from ear speaker, mayby it is mechanical problem.... Maybe I have to clean it, but I don't know why ...

Download 'Volume+' this is a must, increases the speaker and headphone volumne!
Volume+ doesn't increase the in-call volume, it just adds additional volume steps in-between.
Funnily I just changed to the HTC One X from my Galaxy Nexus, as that one had a ****ty in-sound volume and I'm happy as hell for being able to use my phone without a headset again.

Is there any app/hack that can increase the G2's Call Volume? It's rather low.

Nope, it's hardware limitation, maybe you aren't holding it centered over your ear or you have a defective unit, because I noticed when I hold it wrong the sound isn't as loud as it should be
The in call volume should be fine. Mine is very loud. My Xperia X10 on the other hand was unusable and 3 replacements sucked balls as well. You probably have a defective unit if it's truly too low.
Louder G2
The only way I found out is an app through the market called louder volume hack v4.1 but you need root access and a custom rom for it to work other wise it will force close on ya. The app is $3.10 but I guess worth it if you want a louder speaker I think the speakers fine and nothing like the crappy speaker stock on the HD7 but I agree it can be louder.

My wife is going trough this same issue. At times the phone is loud, and others it's real low to the point she has to use speakerphone to hear. She will probably end up getting a replacment, but is dreading the swap out.

How loud is the speaker volume on the HTC One X in comparison to the HTC Sensation.
I find HTC sensation to be very low in terms of loudness especially when playing music
As I am getting a upgrade in coming months I need to know

very loud
i have problems turning the alarm sound down, somehow it doesn't stick....
more like it's the same volume regardless of what the volume bar shows
I played a song on both at the same time and the volume was the same, so not loud enough in my opinion.

Its louder than most phones and the speaker is of a good standard. Its not quite as loud as Samsung note or gs2 it nearly. Volume+ boosts it a bit too.
I would consider it one of the best I have tried for android. You'll not be disappointed.

Oh crap... I actually bought a Samsung Note from Amazon Germany a couple of months ago and had to return it *specifically* because the speaker volume on that phone is ******. I seriously can't tell from your comment if you have ever used a phone with a good speaker that is clean and loud. And what's up with the "you can increase the volume with Volume+"? Is this some kind of joke or are you the master of stating the obvious? Should I assume that pressing Volume- reduces the volume as well? And pressing the power button turns the phone off?
In any case, if you are telling me that the One X is "good", but "not as good as the Note", and, as I said the Note is a piece of crap to begin with, then I am staying clear of the One X. A loud, clear speaker is absolutely essential in my book

i have the note and the one x, the note speaker is a bit louder, feel a bit jealous from my wife's motorola razer, it's speaker is very loud and the voice is very clean.
i couldnt here my one x , standing next to a Gatlinggun. so its useless in war times.
If you want a good speaker go buy a Motorola defy. That's the best loud speaker on any phone IMHO.
Yes volume+ is an app.
Notes speaker is better than most. Maybe you have a dud. Try volume+ to increase volume.
HTC one x speaker is not as loud as notes.

You have just made a complete arse of yourself, wind your neck in.
Speaker volume and clarity is my number one issue when choosing a phone, followed by battery life and screen resolution. I've used a Motorola Milestone (Euro version of original Droid) for years. Recently I won an HTC Sensation in a prize draw. It's a better phone than the Milestone in every way, bar the lack of a hardware keyboard and the terrible speaker.
The keyboard I can just about live without, but the speaker on the HTC was what killed it for me. I went back to my trusty Milestone after a week, because the speaker is so much better! The Milestone wakes me up every day (and I'm a very heavy sleeper) and the HTC failed every day with its feeble volume. Having some some research into this, I think Motorola phones have by far the best speakers in the industry. Otherwise, they are not quite as cutting edge as the likes of Samsung or HTC. Personally, I'm looking to the new Razr Maxx HD as my next phone, which hopefully will tick all three of my boxes.

This is something that I really mis from my s3 probably the thing I would pick if I could change one thing. The phone gets decently loud when playing music (and the quality is amazing) but in call volume I constantly wish it got louder and the same is true for the speaker phone while in call. I think even just alittle bit louder would make a huge difference since for me at max volume its right at the edge.
Anyone else feel the same? I cant be the only one and I have good hearing lol. Please someone fix this!
So far I am seeing my problems disappear one by one as mods come out (share button in blinkfeed, green battery now clear, 30 volume steps for games and music, ect)
That's odd... I find it too loud already just setting it up 2 steps below the middle level of the volume when in call.
Maybe you have a dud. I can hear mine at almost max volume just like a speakerphone on a cheap device. It really is quite amazing

IDK my dads HTC seems to exhibit the same behavior. I will test more to be sure but I doubt its hardware related since my speakers sounds strong with no distortion or anything.
I upgraded from a M7 and it appears the earpiece volume is lower. Anyone have a similar experience? Trying to determine if its just me... Thanks.
the m7 volume for the headphone is far superior to m8. I am using the player pro to play all my musics. The m7 sound is clear and crisp. however on the m8 I am not satisfy with the quality and volume of the m8. You can turn the volume all the way up and it would feel like something is missing. I wanted to return the m8 badly because of it. But then I tweak the EQ on Player pro and downloaded the virper4android and tweak the EQ on there also. Its still not as good as m7 but close to it. I still like my m8 because of the sd card but I wish the size would be between 4.3 or 4.7 inch. I'm using viperrom on both my m7 and m8.
Check and make sure that there isn't some kind of adaptive volume feature enabled for calls or something.
As far as audio quality, I think the M8 blows away my M7. Now, I have decent headphones, and they don't really need an EQ to sound how I like them to sound, so that may be different for other people. The M8 has been getting reviews raving about the audio quality though, and it has a thread over on Head-fi saying the same. The difference between the two is probably the beats vs boomsound EQ. If you like the m7 better, you probably just liked that "sound" more, which should be able to accomplish through software. The hardware itself is better though.
The speaker quality is great but for whatever reason the earpiece volume does seem very low.
Yea I didn't notice it myself until yesterday when I was walking the dog. It just wasn't loud enough for some reason. Call clarity is nice but the volume is missing a few steps

You guys think its low? I have to turn it down. The first time I made a call the other day I thought I was going to blow my ear drum, I have to set it around 50% while my M7 was always on max.
Sound is much better than the M7 all the way around in my eyes. Maybe its a ROM thing, I don't know if InsertCoin has tweaked the audio at all (if it has been tweaked, baadnewz hasn't said anything about it)
It seems like the first ring is loud then it tends to go down in volume regardless as to what it's set at mind you I'm still completely stock haven't even rooted this baby yet maybe a software update will fix this issue?

I'm not talking about the ringer. I'm talking about the earpiece when you are talking to someone and listening to them.
Test this,
I experienced this myself. I was talking with a friend and noticed very low volume. While talking, I tried to turn up the volume but no change. as soon as I moved the phone away from my ear and the screen turned on, I was then able to adjust volume. It seems, at least for me, that you can not change the incall volume while the phone is against your ear. Do a test call and try.

The M8 is so much better than the M7 in terms of sound quality and loudness.
If it doesn't sound like it for you, your unit must be bad... Or there's something wrong with your ears
My cousin's first unit from Verizon had something wrong with the speakers/amp and had to take it back. Sounded very distorted.

Thanks. I'll give that a try. I passed my 14 days return policy. Is it too late to exchange for another one?

When I had my m7 replaced after about 6 months, they sent me a unit in the mail. But it was refurbished.
I only had to pay like $5 shipping.
I'm not sure what they would do now, since it's so new. Your best bet would be to go and ask

I noticed that the volume is higher on the left part of the speaker. Have you tried using the left part? If you listen to the right, it sounds low. The middle is louder, but the left part is the loudest.

When I put the phone on speakerphone no matter who I'm talking to I can barely hear them on speakerphone even in a quiet area. Can anyone help me? I'm stock and unrooted and have had this phone for only 7 months.
Try the volume button while in call. If your speakers work fine in apps etc then you can assume you're experiencing the same issues as everyine else.. Poor sound volume. Its a feature of the m9 and some swear the m8 was louder but I can confirm that htc changed nothing between them as far as speaker sound volume goes.
You also have to remember that if the other person you're in a call with has a poor quality microphone the sound can be affected before your phone.
This said, i can hear people fine even with the rumble of my car engine behind it (parked, of course).
