Has anyone else noticed that the volume on the phone seems low after the update? I use either bluetooth headphones or a UE Boom speaker at work and it seems significantly lower after the update. Just wondering if anyone else thought this also.

Best bet for you would be to do factory reset. Back up your device on kies get that from the Samsung Web site. .and then do a factory reset.
That usually solves many issues.

Yes I am having that issue. Volume is two low. Did you get any luck?

My volume is fine, but 2/3 of the time it sounds like my speaker is blown when I'm on a call. Sometimes it sounds fine, but most times it is reall tinny. Wondering if the speaker got damaged somehow.

Talking on the phone practically makes my ears bleed it is so LOUD. Does anyone know of an app that allows you to lower the volume beyond what the normal settings allow for? Is there any other way to accomplish this task? Voodoo sound doesnt seem to make any difference on call volume, even when I am using headphones on the call. Thanks!

Open the voodoo app and check recording presets

I think that controls the mic gain, not the earpiece.

I have always been able to adjust the call volume via the side volume controls, when in a call
Ie: when on a call, turn the volume down the same way you would the ringer using the side buttons, and instead of seeing the media volume change, you should see incall volume adjusted

Yeah I do that but even at the lowest setting it is obnoxiously loud.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
maybe your ears are just overly sensitive or something is messed up on your phone, rom, kernel, something... wipe and fresh flash see if your problem persists. I can turn the volume down below my level of hearing, but I also have slightly damaged ears from too much gun-play without hearing protection.
I would love to know why its loud.....cause i want to make mine louder....i think im going deaf

Switching to CM7 seems to have fixed the issue somewhat though the volume controls in call are a bit eratic now. I am pretty sure it was rom related as it happened to me on 2 of marcusant's roms. Maybe he likes loud calls lol.

Try the volume+ app in the market. He has free and paid versions but you can get the paid verszion for free on his website.

I believe the fix that worked for me was to disable hifi record in the voodoo control settings. Hope this helps!
Record settings in voodoo seem only to control mic gain (or mic loss, when I enable them no one can hear me! ). My earpiece is also obnoxiously loud in calls- on every GB rom I have tried. I would definitely like a fix for this.
No amount of wiping and flashing between multiple GB roms has ever fixed this.

disabling the Voodoo hi-fi play and record settings definitely fixed the loud call audio problem for me in gingerbread on the epic, sorry it's not working for you.
So I plugged in my headphones and the right earpiece is not working. I thought that the headphones were broken, then I tried it with my iPod and it works perfectly. I tried restarting the phone, I also checked all settings regarding sound including the sound balance on the accessibility settings but all of them are in correct settings. I tried using 3 different headphones but the output is the same, no sound on right earpiece.
After a day I tried it again. The right earpiece is now working but with uneven sound. The volume is low more like 50% of the volume.
Today the right earpiece is not working again. I tried plugging my phone to my desktop speaker and it's the same, the right speaker volume is so low while the left is working 100% fine. It seems that the right piece volume is so low that you can't hear it on the headphones.
Does the phone pop up a seperate home screen when u plug your headphones in?

When I plug my headphone in, audio is not being routed through it; it just plays through the phone's speaker. I've tried loading up backups where the audio was working to no avail; I think this is a hardware issue but wanted to make sure. Anyone else expeirence this?
Never had the issue, Odin to stock to make sure, or try different headphone.,then if the issue persists then it's hardware

Tried that first thing, but no luck. Running stock rom as well
Interesting. When I use soundabout, I can manually force audio to be played through the headphone, and it works. Removing the headphones results in no audio unless I change the setting in soundabout.

Sometimes, there can be something stuck inside the headphone jack. Does your headphone go in all the way? You might want to to clean the contacts for the input.

It goes in all the way. Sometimes, applying a lot of pressure will cause the headphone to be recognized, but relieving the pressure makes it revert, making me think it is a hardware issue.
When I was a" tech" at verizon. We would put in/ pull out the headphone jack repeatedly(quickly) reboot. Majority of the time it worked. Hope that helps

Sounds like a hardware issue. Wouldn't hurt to buy a new headphone port. Parts for the N2 are fairly cheap and easy to replace

True, but it is the installation I am worried about. I DO have a warranty on it...
It looks like it works if I lay the phone flat and jiggle the cord a bit. I may be able to live with that.

If you have warranty, I'd most definitely get it fixed. I use my headphones almost daily so I would have gotten in fixed in a heartbeat
Have you tried cleaning your contacts? (The metal 'prongs' inside if the headphone jack.)

Tried with five different headsets already.
I took a toothpick and a wire tie to clean it out. No dirt emerged. What else would you recommend to clean the prongs?
Hello, can someone confirm this...? Make sure volumes are all the way up, and simply hold down power button till you get the menu to pop... Do you receive the sound you get when you receive notifications? It's weird because I never ever noticed it before and I'm new to nexus... I just want to know if it's glitching or if it's supposed to do that.

The pop with your volume up, defending on your notification audio, may just be your Nexus 7 trying to play audio thats slightly frequencies than your speaker is intended to play. It also could be a few other things with the speakers (Volumes too loud with that notification, maybe?), it isn't just the power button and you shouldn't have to worry.
No... It's because I enabled the accessibility shortcut. Thanks anyway haha

Has anyone noticed that when you put the phone up to max volume when on a phone call the speaker vibrates and becomes very unclear. Not sure if this is normal or a problem with my specific phone.
