Wow !!
Yahyoh, you are THE man ;-)
Can confirm this little app works perfectly on Galnet Miui 2.11.26/Siyah 2.1. The quality of sound doesn't seem to be affected adversely either. I will test this further tomorrow when I'm out & about (around 4.5 hrs listening to music/use).
Thankyou for solving this really frustrating problem on the SGS2
Edit - Yahyoh, did you write the app/fix ? If you did, you need to put that sucker on the Market or at least give people the chance to donate to you man. I know I'd either buy a paid version or sling you a few bucks for this ;-) On the other hand, if it's not your work you probably want to reference/give credit to whomever wrote it. Just sayin.

Im really happy to help all people that have this bug because its really annoying me when i use headphone or connect to my home theater or car and the sound was toooo low and i found this fix and im not who wrote this fix i'm just find it
Nice one mate. Been looking for something like this and even considering buying an ipod..The funny thing is really loud at low volume
this fix + Volume + = burst ur ears
Excuse the language, but holy ****! I've tried everything; all the EQ tweaks, Volume+, and everything in between. I had just accepted it as fact that the Galaxy S II would never be a loud device. I tried VolumeBoost for the GSII, but it distorted the sound horribly at even small increases. But this, just.. wow! The sound boost is amazing. I have to ask, where did you find this man? It's amazing. As alphaola said, I was actually considering buying an iPod just for a music device, but with this? No chance
Sorry for the over-excitement, but this is amazing.

I wonder if there is gonna be a fix for Samsung roms.
Working perfectly on Turkbey ROM V29.2 thanks.
As I said in the title, I was wondering if there was any way to link the two volumes together.
In gingerbread roms, I always used the app Volume Control +, which worked just fine and dandy. However on all roms for ICS (Except AOKP and CM9, which have it included in the volume settings) this app doesn't seem to work anymore, because the notification volume still stays where it is when I hit the volume rockers.
Anybody know of a different app that works for ICS roms on our phone? Or any other way to accomplish this? Any help will be appreciated.
I want this too please...
I was just about to make a thread on this until I decided to search. And same things apply. It worked in 2.3.x and AOKP had it incorporated in the ROM.
*sigh*
This is the biggest urk for me. I'm so used to changing my volume with the volume buttons. I'll have it low and get a text and it's all loud. -_-

I'm reviving this thread now that all E4GT'ers will soon be on ICS - would really like to know if anyone has a way to link Ringer and Notification volume. None of the Play Store apps seem to support this on ICS because apparently they are linked in ICS on every other phone except Samsung's.

Hello Guys,
Can you guys please go to the following link and star that problem, to see if Google can do something about correcting this issue.
this low volume is the biggest complaint about staying stock.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35084
Why not just use Franco kernel and use volume boost... I just hate filing complaints.
-tapped from my paradigm Franco kernel Galaxy nexus
I have the same problem with a nexus galaxy with jellybean 4.1.1
I found a soluction in web that talk of change a string in system\build.prop
"ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps=" and change its value to 10.
But my problem is that in my build.prop the string there isn't.
How i can solve the low volume on my nexus?
Volume+ (volume boost) don't work, it crash at start
Bump!
If any of you guys have time, please Star that topic.
I know it can easily be fixed via rooting the device or what not.
But i'm kind of over the whole rooting scene in a way and just want to stay stock.
but it bugs me that if my nexus is in my pocket or if im not in a quiet room i can barely hear anything.
i also emailed the google play support team, hopefully they will reply.
i've owned way too many google devices for them to just ignore us like that.
best believe if this issue is not resolved via software update, sad to say but i will be switching over to ios.
reply back from Google Play.
I guess they cant do anything about it.. This sucks.
Hi JC,
Thanks for your response back. I can understand how annoying it can be to
experience low volume on your phone device and having to wait for the
development team to come out with an OTA to fix the issue. Unfortunately,
this information isn't available to us since it's being handled by the
Android development team. I recommend you report the issue directly to the
development team. Here's how you can report platform bugs:
http://developer.android.com/support.html
There is also a chance that the issue might be something Samsung might be
able to either repair or perform a replacement for; depending on how long
you've had your device. If you'd like, you're welcome to give us a call
and we can see if this will help. I'm providing a link to our click to
call below:
http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/request.py?contact_type=contact_policy&policy=hardware
If you have any other questions or concerns, please reply back to this
email and I'll be happy to help further.
Regards,
Jay
The Google Play Team

If you are just referring to Music / Video audio volume you might want to check out this app.. I haven't tried it.. I'm running CM10 which sounds great...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.omegacentauri.SpeakerBoost&hl=en
I can understand the stock mentality but with a couple adjustments you will get a better than stock - stock experience...
Personally If I wanted to stock-ish, I would flash the stock rom, root, install trinitystable35 kernel, install trickster mod, adjust headphone volume only and then set superuser to deny any root attempt by default without a prompt...

If you wanted to add that to your build.prop, you could download Build Prop Editor from the Playstore, create a key named ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps, and give it the value 10. At your own risk, of course.
Do they even test this stuff? It's beyond unacceptable to have a speaker this inaudible. Makes me want to throw my phone every time I try to watch a video.
I added my two cents to the link.

I also has got version 4.2.1 and I stock ROM is just fine for me, I never liked CM, but I have got root. A have got problem with volume too, do not hear SMS in my pocket at all.
I did not find the solution, Volume+ boost app still do not work with JB (hopefully will work soon) and Speaker Boost still "stop working", even the old versions.
So, do you know any other solution?
JB 4.1.1 Low volume issue resolved - at lease for me
i had the same issue when i upgraded my stock S3 to 4.1 -- the speaker volume was very low in Nav and music players.
Increasing the "Media" volume fixed it for me.
click on the volume button (up or down) and then click on the settings icon at the end of the slider. Now slide the "Media" volume to the highest.
Everything is back to normal -- in nav audio and speaker phone etc.
If you have not already tried this, you can give it a try ... it might fix it!

I don'tknow what else to try. hopefully it will be fixed in the next night builds......full speakerphone volume soundslikeit's coming from the headsetat full volume.... and the headset volume at full is barely audible even in s quiet room. I turned on the boost in strings but it did nothing. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Ok so, I loooooove CM9/10 Based roms, but they are buggy as heck and I really can't use em reliably.
So Im looking for a solid touchwiz rom that can be themed to looks as close to stock ICS/ JB as possible.
What rom & theme would you suggest?
Which cm9/10 is buggy? Try codename
I'm on codename android with lean kernel. Getting 4+ hours of screen time.
Im on Paranoid android.
My list of bugs...
Google Play Music - after the track, or if I try to skip ahead, or if its interrupted by a call - I get the Music playback error. I try to restart the track and no deal. Sometimes if I close out the app completely it will start working, but overall, the app is extremely unreliable.
I've got the onscreen buttons enabled like my Galaxy nexus & my menu and back capacitive buttons off and un-lit. The back button works 5 outta 10 times. Super annoying. Sometimes Ill hit it and it doesn't respond, not until 5 or 6 tries can I get back.
When playing music it'll be really soft and so I have to turn it down and then turn it back up to get full volume.
So far that's all I can see, but I just wanna know if they are CM10, Paranoid or just settings related. Because I use the music so often - this is just killing me.
As much as I dislike TW, stock was by far the most reliable. So Im hoping to get the best of both worlds.

I'm using the latest Nightlies of the original CM10 ROMs and they work beautifully.

Everything I use is sideloaded and played through PowerAMP.

Quite honestly, after trying out a couple of TW Jellybean ROMS (FrostyJB, LiquidSmooth, etc) I didn't quite like the experience.
My device just wasn't as stable as I would've liked and the TW interface really didn't feel as smooth.
CM10 is my only recommendation, it works well (for me), and it's stable.
I'm still on Android 4.04 and thinking I should upgrade, but wondering which ROM I should try. Which one do you guys think is the best one at the moment for speed, stability and the least problems?
maybe it helps to you to make better choice. At the moment no maintainer on them.

Rootbox - Most Feature Packed
Liquid Smooth - Most Optimized and Lite
CM10.1 - Most Stable, Technically because its closest to stock Android

Different people had so many choice
All 4.2 use same kernel, IMHO similar battery life.
I toggle 3g, wifi and mobile internet only when I need, and 2 days like 60% with stock battery, when I use too much mostly a day or 2 the 100%.
You should backup and try all of them

I found PACRom v18 w/ patches to be fully working minus bluetooth headset and skype (audio).
I never had dropped calls, duplicate texts etc. which are some of the issues i'm having in stock ICS. Battery was great once I installed JuiceDefender Ultimate .. I haven't switched up to Rootbox 4.2.2 because I couldn't get GPS to lock.

What about wifi tethering? Bluetooth audio does not work at all?
Sent from my MK16i using xda app-developers app
I have been using Rootbox since late January. I mostly like it, but I keep having multiple texts and sometimes I get a "not receiving texts" issue until I totally wipe the phones caches, data and rom and reflash. Getting kind of annoying because it's about every 2-3 weeks or so I gotta reflash or clear to a total wipe to fix an issue. Probably related more to the kernel than the rom? I dunno. I am thinking about trying CM 10.1 or DMan's daily driver which I think is based off of 4.0.4? 4.2 is nice, but I need a phone that's a touch more stable and so does my gf. Her phone has the same issues as mine at varying intervals. Rootbox is really nice, it's the only modified ROM I have experience with on these phones. Shame the dev community is dwindled but they did excellent work thus far. If I could I would take over...but I am no programmer. I think I may end up back with stock GB eventually though I'd rather not. I like having my Nexus 7 and phones all on the same 4.2.2.

Thanks. When I get this phone, I would like a rom that mimics Jelly Bean, since I have an Epic 4G finally on Cyanogenmod 10 and I'm already used to that. Looks like I'll have to try a few roms (I don't think Cyanogenmod will ever come to the Captivate Glide ), but I'll keep the one you mentioned in mind.
I finally installed AOKP. The only thing I found misbehaving is bluetooth car handsfree.
has anyone tried with this rom ?

Can you explain 'bluetooth car handsfree'?
I get bluetooth / headset. And I believe I get 'handsfree' - click the button on the headset and it answers the call, and click the button on the headset, speak who you want to call (voice dial), and it dials.
In this case, your car is your headset? (Speakerphone, happens to be mounted in the car?)
Any chance (hoping), that it works with a bluetooth headset, in which case it could be a device compatibility problem?
Or is it just handsfree bluetooth (period) is unhappy?
