4.2 speaker volume - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Is anyone having problems with the galaxy nexus speaker when playing music? It seems like it plays music quitter than on 4.1.2. I checked the volume through settings and its at its max.
Anyone know of a good volume boost app, I've tried a few and they don't really do anything.

I believe the only way you can boost the volume is by installing a custom rom like cyanogenmod.

you could flash awesome beats, that works pretty good, but i have actually noticed an increase in volume since 4.2

Same. I also discovered that any adjustment to the equalizer diminishes the volume. This was not the case on 4.1.2. I was also benefitting from the Volume+ app but it does not serve its purpose now.

Hopefully there will be a flashable zip that will fix this, if there's enough people having this problem.

Google/Navigation talking over Earpiece

Google maps and Navigation announces its next moves over the phones earpiece even if the phone is in use. It will talk over or through the phone. This also happens to some music applications. Can this be resolved? It is very annoying.

I'm guessing it is working as intended, since they wouldn't want you to miss your exit.
You can turn of the sound on navigation all together though.

I understand. I thought when the phone is being used it has priority on the earpiece. This is how it worked on gingerbread.

Even on Gingerbread I've had directions barked in me in my ear while on the phone.

Why beats and dsp?

I don't have music on my phone. I listen to Pandora while I'm at work. Equalizer app works great and its global, so anything you play will sound great! So why is everyone so crazy about something that only works with limited apps?

who said it's only work with limited apps? It's in the Root of the phone, when you flash Beats Audio everything you hear changes, much better
quality and clarity.
DSP manager is there to manipulate the settings.
flash and see, you will see the difference
Volume + is for no and rooted users and works way better then beats

Beats is alright. awesome beats is cool though, same as dsp

But nothing sounds like DSP Manager on cm roms. The clarity and quality is just too good.

beats dsp is only different in one way it uses the beats library

I understand the basics behind both of them, running all stock PA 2.13 right now and don't notice any difference between stock DSP on or off. Has anyone flashed a beats on a JB ROM successfully? The ICS ROMs I flash work great by ear just on the phone, as well as, streamed or connected to an external source. Any input is appreciated

There are different types of beats. But if you know how to work an eq, dsp or awesome beats should work

Poweramp's eq is good too, but there are those who stream from their Google music that needs a more general use eq.

1) Equalizer app works with Pandora but does not with Google Music...
2) Some versions (latest) of DSP work with Google Music but not with Pandora...
3) "Ported" beats libs does not work at all on SGII...
4) Good headphones (like IE80) does not need any EQs...
Make your pick.

How do you know that?
Alright, to be constructive, make an experiment... delete all beats *.bin files... leave only AwesomeBeats.apk, config file and cyanogen lib.so... reboot...
Does it still work?
OK. Well I use Pandora so I'll stick with equalizer, cause it sounds good. If I ever get a bigger SD card so I can put music on here I'll check out beats.

With Google Music you can stream from cloud ... you don't need to keep your music on SD card.
Google gives you cloud space for 20000 titles regardless of file size for free. I have around 5000 songs with high bitrate it's about 40GB.

Well, I got Awesome Beats installed, and it makes a WORLD of difference, however, after playing through maybe a song and a half, it disables, and the sound goes really low until I go back in, uncheck everything, recheck it, and restart the music.

This is an issue with CM10 source but the latest nightlies seem to fix it some. It's still being worked on though.

volume + if u want it loud that bad
I think the notifications sounds affect the volume of music or whatever is playing at the moment. I've noticed that I'll be playing music and I'll receive a text and my volume will go down and it won't go back up as loud....?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
The same thing happens to me. Volume will not go back up automatically but if I hit the volume up or down it immediately goes back to where it was.

Bad audio driver?

I feel like the s3 has weak audio drivers. On my old photon 4g running cm 7 with DSP I had my volume at mid level and it would block out the train on my morning commute. Now running killjoys ROM even with the volume all the way up, I can still here everything around me. I also can't get any EQ's to work. They don't change the sound at all. Not sure if its my phone, ROM, or something else.

DSP manager

Running vanilla root box nightly 6/18 and I can't seem to get DSP working. I don't notice any difference. Is it the headphones or music app causing this? Using power amp and default gs3 headphones. When using my old HTC og evo 4g DSP worked flawlessly 100% of the time
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Did you use it with poweramp on the evo?
Poweramp has its own eq built-in. So you may have to use it.
Don't know much more about dsp though, sorry.
Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda premium
Yeah that's the thing.... On the evo DSP worked regardless of my player. It even worked in addition to any presets I placed with poweramp
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
If its a bug, it may have been addressed in the recent nightlies. They fixed several problems from what I understand.
Otherwise, I'm just not sure. Did you ask in the roms thread?

Have you disabled direct volume control in poweramp?

Pretty sure I did. I ran out of ideas and installed v4a audio mod... But some apps are so loud like my volume is turned up all the way. So far it only affects Pandora and slacker

I don't think so, since we edited the rom/script to get it to install. I wouldn't try until the dev adds the T999L to his script.
Just fyi, you'd be much better off posting this type of question in this thread:
