[Q] In Call Volume low - Sprint LG Optimus G

Is anybody else noticing a drop in in-call volume since the 4.1.2 update? I have DSP manager installed on my OG from before the update and still call volume is ridiculously low. Any suggestions? Maybe uninstall and reinstall DSP manager first?

I've noticed the same thing and I've found no way to make it louder.

I took DSP Manager off my phone and went back to the stock sound setup. I'll let you know if it worked to cure the call volume problem. May be something we have to report to LG.

I'm experiencing the same thing. More times than not I am unable to hear the caller on the other end well enough to hold a conversation.

So I took DSP manager off and no dice. I'm wondering if I might HAVE to root it and put on a new ROM and maybe put Awesome Beats on the phone in order to get the results I want.

I think this is something that can be modified with the kernel. I remember on the galaxy nexus there were a few Franco nightlies he was testing that had in call volume issues. Some were too low some were crackely. If he was able to modify something within his kernel to effect call volume then I'm sure it can be tweaked to a higher volume.

Low volume thru line-out on cm10 alpha 4

Just wondering if other people are experiencing this issue on their phones as well. volume is really low on cm10 alpha 4. had to have my car stereo cranked as high as it would go to listen to TWiT and still couldnt hear it on the higway.
Is thisa known issue or something that can be corrected in the next update or so? I understand it`s and alpha release.

Most of the aosp ROMs I've used have had somewhat lower volume than tw based ones... just grab something like volume + from the market, its worked well for me thus far, there's a bunch of apps that'll let you boost your volume

Thanks. Just seemed weird when cm9 is perfect and could not hear music on full blast running cm10.
Definitely is an issue with that rom and not just aosp roms.
Anyone else noticing this?

Volume plus, DSP manager and nexus louderv3 beta3

I am currently running codnameandroid its an amazing 4.1 ROM however I do have an issue with the volume on this phone when it comes to speaker and headphones. I tried volume plus a week ago for the fist time and wow did it make my speakers vibrate. After some more ROM flashing i decieded to flash nexuslouderv3 and it worked. I got sorta greedy and used that with volume plus and the sound went back to stock. I tried flashing with one of them being used and vice versa but no luck. I even formatted my system and data but no luck. Anyone have suggestions?

Trinity has the same thing too. The volume boost is only for headphones anyway.
Are you saying louderv3 working but then stop functioning after trying to use volume+? If so disable volume + and make sure your musical effects (in settings>sound) is not set to volume+.

Real Sound Improvement Superloud Volume

If you want to have louder volume Flash this zip. It was developed by Meltus SG3 Developer but it works on our phone. You can flash the zip or open the zip and place default.gain file to system/etc. and reboot afterwards to hear the difference it really works great with headphones. If you want to change the volume find 'AIF1 Boost volume' and change value from anything 1 to 63. You can edit the files yourself to the volume you want it to be but anything over 63 might break the sound so don't push it. I have mine on set to 60 with PowerAmp it's superloud and I love it LOUD!!!! More info go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722136&page=1
Did everything you said and working great. Got it set at 60 also and loving it. Thanks

Does it matter which recovery you use? I use TWRP and it keeps giving me the flash failed error message. This is actually the first file I have tried flashing since I switched from CWM to TWRP. I can just place it in the system folder no problem. Just curious if this is a know issue with TWRP.
So I edited all the AIF1 Boost volumes to 55... it didn't seem to make a difference. Is 55 too low.? I sent it to the pc and edited it in text pad.. Then emailed it back to myself. Then I used root explorer to put it in system /etc.

I did this also. No change, I am using Darkside TW based rom. I wonder if that matters. This doesn't really seem to do anything. My wife has the exact phone as me so I have a reference point to compare. There is no difference between her phone volume and mine.
The Zip file has a problem, it doesn't want to install and I downloaded 2 times already. Please fix it and re upload it.
Thanks

Try one of these zips . First zip is original Second to 60 Third 63. Thats it for now.

I noticed in the file there are some lines that indicate you could adjust the in call volume. If you also adjust this to 60 would that work? Is this mod designed to accomplisht that?
Ok has anyone got this to work?i compared the default zip to the 63 zip and i don't see any difference and the file you said to change is still at 0....i don't get it and also the 63 zip had other files in Chinese what do they do?

Actually, I flashed this and there is NO difference in volume sound what-so-ever.
And ACTUALLY, I never found any sound "tweaks" that really worked, except
the app. Volume+ version 1.7.1. (Please remember the Version, as any version higher than that will NOT work).
So, if you REALLY want loud, LOUD sound, try Volume+ V1.7.1!!!!
And for the OP, please take the Volume+ v.1.7.1.apk and see why it is the only
one that REALLY makes a difference in volume LOUDNESS...
It seems that nobody can reproduce that performance yet....(Are you man enough for that challenge??)

I use volume+ with the tweaks . the same person who created volume+ meltus created these tweaks on ther sgs3 thread. Don't know why people can't get it to work. Don't blame me if you can't get it to work I just passed it along. I did not create this MELTUS did. But sorry if you guys can't get it to work though.

Problem with notification sound

I don't know why this started but it is very annoying. My speaker works because I played music while my phone didn't make any noise and it worked.
But when pressing the volume keys, the little "boop" doesn't sound and when I restart the phone, the animation and sound turning off doesn't sound but the boot animation sound works and everything is normal, at least for awhile anyway.
Basically its like all software sounds just don't work except playing music thru the speaker.
Is there any way to fix this?
Oh I'm all stock, no flashing or ROMs, anything.

I'm seeing this as well. Seems to happen on any kernel I try, and only since the JB update. BTW, I am using stock JB rom, rooted/unlocked.

[Q] Inline Mic no longer works [CM 10.1]

Is anyone having a problem with an inline mic not working at all on their GSIII?
Ever since approx CM 10.1 beta 4 the mic on a couple pairs of headphone no longer works. The mic no longer receives sound during calls and pushing the single button has no effect in music players like it used to. Headphone ear buds still play sound just fine.
I updated to the most recent nightly and problem still persists.
I'm just not 100% sure it its a problem with the ROM or if coincidentally for some reason my headphone jack has failed and is no longer receiving mic signals.
Anyone else having this problem or know a fix for it?
Odin back to stock and test. Then you will have your answer.

I doubt it is CM.

I've had lots of random issues in the past where Poweramp wouldn't respond to the buttons on the earbuds (never used one with a mic). Would work fine for a while, then stop. Poweramp is almost never updated. So that has to be a CM problem.
Also, Tasker was no longer reading my notifications to me while my earbuds where plugged in. Worked fine for months on every nightly up to a certain point. No longer works. I think headset plugged isn't being registered within the OS anymore.
My money is on CM bug.
Weird definitely. I figured there being no talk of it it wasn't an issue, only person to ask this lol... Hopefully it is a bug within cm only though. Someone pull system/usr/keychars|key layout/general file and compare them, I fixed this issue with LiquidSmooth 2.2 release which in turn fixed Carbon's exact issue. Maybe they changed something and/broke something.

Like mt3g its the first I've ever heard about it. Just nandroid backup. Odin root 66. Test. Restore nandroid.
At least for me its not too much to do to be certain. Your call though, of course.

Yes compare the "general" in system/usr/keylayout & keychars... I just put them side by side in notepad and scroll and check to see I'd they're different in any way at all. Better yet you can just push them, remove the current ones and replace them with new ones and then reboot.... That's how I fixed the issue with Liquid a while back surprisingly lol.

Well I'm flashing stock root66 right now so we'll see if the problem persists there or not first. If not then I'll load CM back in and see what happens and try your idea out.

Really looking forward to hearing how this works... If I had more time these days, I'd have a look at the commit history, but the wife and kids are making more demands on my time than I can handle and still have as many hobbies as I'd like. This thread is subscribed, though. Thanks everyone for having more free time than I do.

Well the news is in.
Running stock Touchwiz rom the inline mic worked perfectly with calls and controlling music.
But back on CM 10.1 latest nightly and it no longer works again.
on a side note I'm pretty pissed. Some how between the odin flashing of stock and cwm flash of CM 10.1 half the **** on my sd card including my titaniumbackups and my nandroid backs up are no where to be found. My music and several other old app folders are still on the card but not the actual important stuff I needed to restore. Whats weird is my SD card still shows the same amount of data on the card but I can't find any of it anywhere.
Always keep a backup of internal stuff, people complain too much for their own mistakes.
