Anyone using or know of any volume mods that work with Cyanogenmod 12?
I tried one in the T-Mo s4 forum but it was over year old. It worked but every time I got a call my phone flipped out and crash.
Don't know why CM toned down the volume on the speaker so much. Used to be the loudest

Alright, guys. I hate starting a new thread for this question, but searching gave me a ton of different results and nothing specific.
Background: My biggest issue with my GNex (as it is for lots of people) is the low volume on the external speaker. Let me clarify...I'm not looking to make music/media louder. This is purely to make the volume louder on phone calls. Part of the time my job involves driving around in my work truck and I nearly always use the speaker phone while on a call. Since JB was released, I can't seem to get any of the traditional mods/apps to work that used to work on ICS.
So, what I'm looking for is this. I'd like recommendations, based on first-hand knowledge/use, of what ROMs/kernel combinations would allow for the greatest speaker volume on phone calls. I've tried a few different ROMs (MinCo, ParanoidAndroid, Codename Android, etc) and a couple of different kernels (Franco and Trinity), but I haven't seemed to be able to find the right combination for tweaking the volume to be louder.
Any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated! :good:
In-ear bluetooth will solve the problem, i never found the speaker phone on any phone to be loud enough.
I had the exact same concern as the OP, I needed loud speaker vol for calls for work. I tried CNA 3.3 + Trinity kernel stable and the vol is loud enough for me to actually have to turn it down sometimes lol. I'm trying CM10 official nightly now with its default kernel and it has loud speaker vol too but the CNA + Trinity combo still takes the cake imo.
There's also other roms/kernels that implement the loud vol fix for e.g Bugless Beast if you want to stay as close to stock as possible for the rest of the rom/features, but I haven't tried that one yet, on most rom threads you can quickly scan the features list to see if its addressed.
Let me know if you find something else that I can try too
I'd like an app solution to this also/ i've tried lots of things that claim to work in the play store.
I'm noticing that call volume only when speaker is enabled is extremely low. Volume for music played through the speaker or headset volume is just fine, strangely it only affects the speakerphone during a call.
I'm running LiquidSmooth 2.4 I believe, I haven't upgraded to 2.5 since last I heard that bricks phones. Should I just upgrade to CM10.1? I wasn't able to find a list of known issues. Either that, or if someone has a fix for 2.4 or something.
Thanks in advance for any help.
EDIT: I did find an existing thread about this, but it's back from January

I am using CyanogenMod 4.3 latest nightly version the rim is great but there is only one problem the ringtone volume is not enough it's really hard to hear already note 2 Speker volume is very low. So please can anybody can suggest any solution to this problem.
I have used volume+ its not working.
Hi
Can anyone give me any ideas on how to boost the call volume at all? I have the volume set to MAX but the sound is so quiet it's driving me nuts. It cant be me going deaf as I can still hear the wife
It used to be fine when I was on M2 of CM11 but needed to move to a newer version (now on nightly from March 14th) in order to fix a couple of other issues with GPS, camera and bluetooth.

Check the themes and apps section, I remember seeing a fix for the volume in there somewhere.
Hey there,
I also have the same problem since using CM11. When using the Samsung Stock Rom, the volume was much louder.
So what app should I use?
Did you guys find a solution for this problem? I have it too...
I found a workaround. Once the call starts press volume down button and then volume up. It works great. The problem is that you have to do this each and every single time...
Has this been fixed in M11?
My earpiece volume is annoying low. I already went to /system/etc/tiny_hw.XML and changed the default output to 63, but its still not quite loud enough and when put past 63 I get no audio out of the earpiece at all. Anyone got a fix for this?

Not to promote any specific ROM but there are a couple of other AOSP ROMS in the regular development forum where the volume works great without the annoying low volume bug. Dirty Unicorn and Liquid Smooth. Read the user comments an the ROM change logs as well as features and you will find a ROM where the volume works as it should. The above mentioned ROMS come to mind.
Is the fix for their ROMs able to be implemented into CM11? I have 3 android phones in my house and I use the same ROM across them to figure out problems easier.
