Issue with volume on earpiece. No control. - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I notice that volume control during call on earpiece, including the "extra volume" feature, doesn't work. "Extra volume" doesn't work on speaker phone either.
Twice now I've received a call and felt my privacy was compromised; being unable to reduce volume.
Can anyone else confirm this? Hopefully our upcoming update resolves this.

It seems like this happens after a phone restart. Then on another call you can change the volume. Try pressing volume UP then it seems to obey the controlled volume.

Try pulling the phone away from your face and once the screen turns on again try lowering the volume.

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 been able to raise IN CALL volume?

so volume+ works great for me. i have it at +8 and sometimes up to +10 when i'm in the car, and i can hear the notifications just fine.
but the in call volume, even on the speaker, is still really low to the point where if i'm on the highway i can't hear someone even if they're on speaker unless i hold it to my ears.
probably going to get a bluetooth speaker for my car soon, but until then i want to just boost it.
i know volume+ has this boost incall volume by editing the build.prop but i have no idea what to do, and obviously don't want to screw anything up. so has anyone done that, or does anyone have another way of boosting the in call volume for both speakerphone and regular speaker.
Extremely interested in this myself.
I tried doing it with volume+ but it only ended up making it worse.
If anyone has done it successfully, please post how.
My in call volume raises fine with volume+

What did you set yours to? The choices are 0 - 100.
bumping this to hopefully get an answer.
bumping this again because i'd really love to actually be able to hear people when i'm not in a quiet room.
Did you try volume+ beta? It is a lot better than the one on the market. You can find it in the themes and apps section.

Is the in-call volume actually that bad?

Not for me. I don't have any problems with it.

Can we get a volume mod for everything

My calls are too loud most of the tone, even with the volumes all the way down. I just bought an in-line volume controller to adjust my volumes, hopefully that will bring it down more than before. I think that supercurio is inventing controls for the i9100. It would be never if we can at least make a sign that shows that we can mod our audio to do the same thing if not any. I know we have yamaha hardware in our phones, and voodoo sound is produced yamaha, although I know voodoo found aren't dofound in our phones. We probably do have a chance to dev something. Let me know if anything.

Try volume+ from the market, or adjusting the user accessibility setting in the main menu.
Volume + does not show up on my search results for some reason. second, do you know of an accessibility app too download?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
My bad, yes it does show up, but it really doesn't work for me, I have root and try to adjust the headset but no progress and the the speaker does work and that is all. In not sure how to adjust the Bluetooth and if possible I'd like too know how to use it. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Speakerphone volume problem..

I've looked everywhere for an answer to this problem so please don't flame me. :fingers-crossed: I am new!
I flashed AOKP's jellybean ROM for AT&T last night and ever since then my speakerphone volume is really low. It's almost the same volume as the regular speaker. I can't hardly tell the difference between when it's on speakerphone and not.
Not sure what to do! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I am running AOKP as well, although i haven't yet used my speakerphone, when my volume is up my notifications can be deafening at times...especially high pitched squeals and the like. Try going into the settings>rom control>sound menu and enable the volume panel. This enables you to selectively adjust the volumes for each sound group (for lack of a better word). This is similar to the stock sound menu with greater control. With this enabled when you adjust your sound using the rocker buttons you will see a mixer icon on the right, press that to open the volume panel and try adjusting the sounds that way. I've found the best setup for me is to crank up the phone volume, and then put the notification and music levels somewhere between 1/2 and 3/4 full. Its worth mentioning i also have my volume levels linked so that they all scale up and down together, this way my phone volume isn't all the way down while the notifications remain loud for example. This setting is found in the settings>sound menu.
I enabled that and it was turned all the way up. But I turned it down and then turned it back up and now it works great. Thank you so much!
