Try this:
Volume+ Free - LINK
or buy it to make it even louder: Volume+ (Sound Boost) - LINK
If you ever root, use DSP Manager, a lot better then Volume+:
DSP Manager (Flash it) - LINK

I tried the free no noticeable difference so im hesitant to buy the full. Thanks anyway

you can buy it, and try it out. you have a 15 minute refund window.

yea I hate that 15 min window lol never seems enough time, they should at least give you an hour

Its says it currently doesn't work with ICS?? Hrmmm..
So it works on your Gnex??
Thanks guys. = )

this doesn't help with "in-call, earpiece" volume. i recall that this type of change had to be done at the kernel level. i had the same issue with my Nexus One and a kernel dev boosted the output tables (or something like that) in the kernel and it made a big difference. i was hopeful that Samsung's service codes could be accessed to change in-call volumes. however, those codes don't work on the Galaxy Nexus.

Hmm. Flashed dsp manager and now it force closes every time i try and open it. Any way to get it working or at least remove it?

This has been covered in depth. Install equalizer or volume+, and max out each frequency. Your volume will double for all audio, ringers, notifications, and music. But call volume will stay the same.

So it does work with ICS?

I used volume+. Out the box volume is low. For each setting i put it on the one after the *warning*. Does its job.

Equalizer is my favorite over volume+... and yes the both work on ice cream. Works excellent.

So its just called equalizer??
Does it have some other options over the earpiece also?
Thanks guys. I've thrown a few thanks hits around too. = )
Cheers.

Equalizer by smart apps. Great app.

I use volume + and works great. I got the paid version. These are my settings and its loud I have to turn my phone down at work cuz when it rings its loud as hell lol.

Cool man thanks for the uploads dude!!
So I'm trying g to decide without knowing what one works aswell as what one is better.....dilemma!! Haha.
Thanks again guys. = )

One other thing, is the Gnex speaker capable of going louder without damage??

also make sure you go to sound settings > music effects and choose volume +. a lot of people who don't notice a difference in volume have missed that essential step

Volume issues

First my phone is telus note 2. My problem is that I'm a truck driver and usually have truck running especially lately at night so there's lots of ambient noise. When I try to watch YouTube videos etc with my phone plugged into the aux on the truck stereo I have to turn it to at least 28 or 30 out of 35 to hear anything providing the audio on the video is good. I've tried volume in settings with no avail. I know it's not the cable or stereo because my Acer A500 works like a charm I only need to turn stereo to max 22.
What are my options besides apps like speaker boost? I've also found a post during my search that had a file u need to either edit or download and overwrite that increases headphone jack. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I should also add I never had a problem with my desire hd either.
Thanks again

Honestly I've seen this MOD. As it's modifying the build prop. In order to raise the vol.
It's been out for awhile now, and I actually did that mod manually. Entering in the line for, what was needed..
But TO me personally VIPER4ANDROID :thumbup:
surpasses that by all means. If you haven't tried it yet. Don't knock it till you do. Trust me you'll be amazed at the sound.

Gain is too loud and when you are in disco or record loud music the sound was very bad
wit this high gain over 105. This was also a problem with stock 4,2 and 4,4 and all dev rooms.
Can you please tray to lower the gain at 88db.
PS: Sony experia z1 have great sound when record loud music. G2 have
bad sound wit high gain and full of noise. The low freq have also too much gain.
Play some music home at max and record and you will hear.

Hello,
I don't get it. For the Nexus 5 its much lower coz I can test. For this, my testers said it was alright. But i will consider it as well.
Can you explain it a bit clearly. Do you want me to lower the gain?

[MOD] Volume Boost for Headphones, Earpiece, Bluetooth, and Speaker. JB/KK/G3 Roms

AS OF NOW, THIS IS UNSUPPORTED, IF SOMEONE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE OVER DEVELOPMENT FEEL FREE TO, MAKE SURE CREDIT IS GIVEN TO ME AND IXNYNE. EDITING THE FILES WITH A TEXT EDITOR WORKS BEST. HAVE FUN!!! EMAIL ME @ [email protected]
Hey everybody, I just made some Headphone volume boost scripts, all are tested and work, though some may damage your hardware.(Continue reading)
These are flashable zip files that will work on any recovery.
They range in digital volume from 62-68 for now. And range from 19-20 in digital volume. (63/19 only)
They are safe to flash for the most part, but values above 65 for digital volume MAY damage hardware.
How to install:
Download and flash in CWM, TWRP, or Philz
Downloads: Below
-Slight boost, choose 62/20, 63/19, 63/20, or 64/20
-Medium boost, choose 65/20- Some devices may clip at high volume.
-High boost, choose 66/20- Some devices may clip at high volume.
-Experimental Extreme boost, choose 67/20 or 68/20- use with caution! May damage hardware.
I would recommend 63/19 for iPhone like sound. Or 64/20 for loud sound, without distortion.
Aosp earpiece boost and stock earpiece was removed, they didn't work correctly, use new earpiece and Bluetooth boost!
Remember:
I am not responsible if your phone explodes, creates a nuclear weapon, makes your ears bleed, or if it stops working.
If you say I broke your phone, I will laugh at you. Please advise!
Bugs: None reported... Yet.
Please tell me if anything is wrong!
Thanks,
willi_3609
P.S. this is working best on KK Roms. And new Earpiece and Bluetooth boost are out!!!
Thanks to iXNyNe for the base files!

Thank you for making this. I found it to be very helpful.

was looking for this a long time ago.. i flashed 2 files yesterday from some1 who posted other volume boosts as well but having a more wide option available is amazing....

If i an not mistaken , we can flash multiple files one after the other, correct ?
example.. i want to boost Head phone and speaker .. so flash Headphone6520.zip followed by Speaker66.zip ? or would Speaker66.zip overwrite Headphone.zip changes ?
As i understand it both files just modify Mixer_paths.Xml, so multiple flashes would just be overwriting the same file?
Thanks for the mod !

You can use both.

It just modifies them, you can flash both speaker and headphone, no need to wipe anything either!

Can anybody test somethibg out for me.
I need somebody with an AOSP based ROM to test my Earpiece zip. That would be great, ui need to know if it works on the D80x models
It should boost earpiece volume as that is the only lower value, but I would be thankful to have someone test it and report back to me. Thanks.

@willi_3609 Thanks for this..
i ve flashed some of them.. it works fine with cable headphone but bluetooth headphone is not as loud as cable headphones..
Would be much better if bluetooth headphones could sound like same as cable headphones

Thanks!

its been posted a lot of time, bluetooth headphone volume is digital. cant be changed
question: when i already have a volume mod flashed then i flash another kernel, the volume mod flashed will dissappear right? so need to flash the boost again..? ?

Answer: Its actually not about kernel.. But yes. It can help..
I ve tried many rome and mods .. Its definitely changeable.. Last time i ve tried sony walkman on my g2 (cloudy g3 rom) was the best sound with bluetooth.. It was as loud as cable..
but cloudy's rom wasn't good enough.. (heating) therefor i had to change it..
So one thing i m sure is bluetooth sounds can be changed..

Hey OP can you look at possibly getting this working with cm11. I know there are other mods that say they help with those volume issues but I've yet to find one that gives stock like or close to stock results. Thanks!

Tab S sound Boost, cannot find Mixer paths xml file? Help needed

I love my tab S and maybe this is the best screen I've seen my whole life.
But one thing bothers me that, I've been using the s and note devices from past 3 years, one thing I always did was Boost the sound for Speaker and the Headphone in the Mixer paths xml file.
I've searched this tab for a similar file and have got absolutely nothing.

You could install my ROM and use the DSP manager, it also uses mixerpaths though a more serious answer is look at the comments it should point u in the right direction.

I have tried that and multiple others. Some work well, some dont.
None have given me what I am looking for which it the ability to boost things like system volume, notification volume, etc. Still looking for a way to do that.
The best that I can accomplish is boosting media volume via a music or video player. If that is all you are looking for then the equalizer and bass booster will work fine.
