Is there anyway to increase the max ringer and alarm volume. when u preview it , its really loud but when it actually uses it its so much quieter.... any solutions?
I flashed the AOKP Jelly Bean Build 3 ROM last week and nothing was wrong but after I bought new earphones (with a volume control + mic) today, my notifications have being going through my speakers instead of my earphones. Even when I tried using my old earphones (which doesn't have volume control buttons or a mic), the sound still goes through my speakers. Is there any way to solve this?
Alright, so my issue is that I use my phone to play music at night, and as my alarm in the morning. Having the music low enough to be peaceful while sleeping means my alarm also goes off that peacefully. Using a really loud alarm sound isn't enough.
What I'd like to be able to do is somehow separate the two. Whether Bluetooth volume gets ignored completely (and instead having it use my separate media and alarm volumes), having Bluetooth volume be a master where it still also uses the other two, or anything else that lets my alarm volume be louder over Bluetooth than my media volume.
Has anybody seen any app or trick that can do anything like this? I wouldn't even care if the music plays over Bluetooth as normal and the alarm goes off at its proper volume right out of the phone, ignoring the Bluetooth. Just anything to get my heavy sleeping self up in the morning while enjoying my music throughout the night (I sleep quite poorly).
I found this out by accident. If you plug anything into the ear phone jack, the alarm volume will go up by 20 to 25% from max volume. It only works for alarms. I am hearing impaired and this made a big difference to me when using the phone to wake me up.
I was trying to connect an amplified speaker to the ear phone jack which did not work ?????? but the volume went up when I inserted the plug in the ear phone jack....go figure.
Hello!
I got my S20+ (SM-G985F) a few weeks ago and the alarm clock, notifications, and ringtone volume on my phone is too high. Compared to my old phone (LG V20), the minimum volume is equal to 50% of the maximum volume in my old phone. The minimum volume should be barely audible. This is a big problem for me, as I don't want to be woken up to loud sounds, and I don't want every room I'm in to be blasted with sound every time I get a notification or a call.
Here is what I tried so far:
* Installed "Sound Assistant" from the galaxy store. It doesn't do anything for the alarm volume, and the notifications and ringtone volume, even when it's 1/100, while it's better, it's still too high for some situations.
* I set the built-in EQ all the way down, it doesn't reduce the volume.
* I used an external EQ app (Equalizer FX) to turn everything down to -10db, which does help with the alarm clock, notifications and ringtone volume, but it also affects the media volume and makes it too quiet, so I have to disable it if I want to watch youtube for example.
Did anyone encounter this issue or have suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks!
I understand your problem. But if I choose e.g. Asteroid as the alarm sound and set it to lowest volume, it is really calm and pleasant to my ears, and I am quite sensitive to noise too.
The only possible way to maybe get a different volume control would be a Custom ROM like LineageOS I guess.
