Headset volume not very loud

So I picked up my LG3 for sprint over the weekend. Loving the phone so far, coming from a HTC one M7. Definitely prefer the G3 in every aspect however one thing I noticed is the headset volume is not as loud. Which sucks because I use my phone at the gym and it's a big difference from the HTC one. Is there an app that you guys would recommend to solve this issue? I saw someone mention the Beats Audio app, but can't seem to find it...
OR am I stuck until we can get a root and load a kernel to fix this?

Which headset/earbuds are you using?
Which music player are you using?
I use PowerAmp for Android (I also purchased the unlocker).
This app has hands down the best equalizer/booster/settings for any aspect of listening to music.
Try the free version, if it has solved your problem you may consider buying the unlocker.
Hope this has helped you out

Thanks Man,
I can use the stock music player it comes with since it has an equalizer as well and noticed it does make it louder. However, I mostly stream through soundcloud and so the equalizer doesn't have an effect on that.

There are also equalizers that will alter all the sound coming out of the phone.
No matter what the audio source is.
This app does that, you might give it a try.

Yea it sucks i got skullcandy navigators and not even poweramp sounds good but after its rooted I can modify sound file and install viper like my s5 and then it will pump.

You can change all the audio settings using ViperAudio search XDA and you will find the page, i have used this and doubles the volume and clarity, must have android mod..

I am using klipsh ear buds and they are super loud. Hurts my ears to go past about 75%. And I don't have sensitive ears either. I have a jl w7 13.5 which blasts my ears about 2 hours a day

Viper4Android is system wide audio FX, it is always on when you tick the "ENABLE OPTION" on the Viper4Android Apps..
just try it to enable and disable to hear it

Installed Viper, drivers etc but no difference. Same as before. Viper doesn't love me definetelly

Do you have to be root to install Viper? The text in Play Store is in some kind of Asian...

This one worked fine with for me with the PowerAmp but only think work is the Equalizer and the Bass Booster goes on and off with some songs. but if u can tune it right it sounds pretty good :good:

Doesn't work with LG Music either. I installed DFX Music Pro so I'll just use it until someone makes DSP zip

Sorry to hijack this thread but I think most other users are having same questions probably and my question is related to DSP . I can't seem to find the ViPer4Android in the Sound effects menu after it's installed. I installed the driver and enabled it in the apps (reboot), but still can't find it under Settings > Sounds > Sound effects. How do you get it to show up?

there is no tips, and VIPER4ANDROID is running as SYSTEM SERVICE
not gonna show up on sound effects
Viper is ON if you click the apps and Turn it On...
make sure you use the "moderate" UI Settings on Viper4Android.
try to use headset and turn it on on Viper
play music
and play around with Viper4Android settings...
Feel the sound

I have installed DSP Manager from CMApps (on Google Play) a it works (i'm using Google Music).

Just fyi, you only have it showing up in Sound Effects settings if you have installed another DSP software - same behaviour as for the launcher. LG G3 has no internal DSP, just the one included in the music player, thus you cannot switch between v4a and this one.
To install v4a, I just downloaded the zip (you can find the link on the official download page), extracted the appropriate apk and installed it with a file explorer.
Only issue I've met so far is random volume decrease, and I haven't been able to figure out where that's coming from yet (install as a system app didn't solve it).
I use a different music player, so I don't know if the LG player works well with v4a and if the included dsp disables it when activated.
Hope it helps a little.

ok, thanks! I'll give it a try again and hopefully it will work better. I do have WinAmp with EQ enabled, I have read somewhere which you need to disable the WinAmp EQ for this to work, that may the the issue.

How to get max of sound quality for music listening?

Yo,
I like to listen to music, so i'd like to tweak the sound parameters on the phone to my taste.
What can be done in this direction?
Maybe you can recommend me some apps that are good to play with EQ and other sound influenting factors?

Poweramp.
If you mean like full system equalizer, there ain't any good one out there. They tend to make loudspeaker really quiet.

Ear speaker boosting?

Having the Zenfone 2 for two days, I am not satisfied with maximum ear speaker loudness.
It's not as loud as my Nexus 5 (not to speak about max loudness on Samsung s5!). Barely hearable in noisy environment.
Anyone else not satisfied?
BTW my is rooted, so where could I find an app (?) or some other way to boost the loudness?

search for SELinuxmodechanger on xda and install it..change selinux to permisive mode and reinstall viper4android..it works on my zf2..

Just done all you said. It does not seem to boost the ear speaker (maybe the rear one, but it's not what I want)

Done it, but no sucess. Are you sure that these programs support the Intel platform? There are drivers installed, but they might not work on x86 proc.?

Well, they said it is compatible and I was able to install it without problems. It works

[Q] Equalizer???

I have no idea why we don't have a stock Equalizer? The sound of Pixel 2xl is so disappointing, lacking base and no way to tune equalizer because there is none! except in the google play app which i do not wish to use. I have tried a few external equalizer apps but all have failed to do anything.
Any suggestions guys?

Unfortunately it does not lock on to Amazon Music ... However, the global output should still work, but it will be less stable.
