Hey guys is it just me or does anyone else have crazy low Bluetooth Volume? Even maxed out is it very very low compared to my Nexus 6P. And has anyone figured out a solution to this? I tried the Devine audio mod great for increased speaker volume but Bluetooth it does virtually nothing. Any help into this area would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same issue. No solution so far...
Sent from my OnePlus3 using XDA Labs
Should be able to be fixed using the mixer_paths file but I thought the volume was fine
If u flash viper u can easily adjust the output gain, also for Bluetooth

My volume is comparable to what I got on my Nexus 6P. I listen to my podcasts at the same volume level over my car stereo as before.

Use Devine beats to flash it. Here is the official threat: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/softwaredapp-divinebeats-sound-master-phone-sony-t3274355
While u find the newest beta to flash here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591020540822247
It includes the Bluetooth fix and was just posted in the op3 telegram group.
Hope I could help.
I'm on the stock rom but rooted. I assume it doesn't matter but I'd like to be sure.

Brilliant, thanks! Low bluetooth volume has been annoying me too and I've been looking for a way to successfully install V4A. This worked perfectly! :good:

Well as long as you use TWRP to flash it you are fine.

Thanks for the link. Now I need to figure out how to increase the gain on my Bluetooth headset. Any suggestions?

I think this has an issue with streaming apps like Spotify, same as other versions of V4A I've tried. Mine won't play in the car either. Annoyingly, gonna have to revert to stock for now.
This does not work for me.......looks like I'm not able to get Viper4Android to work either. So it looks like I will wait for a later time. Thanks for the recommendation though.
I don't think Viper works. It doesn't seem to do anything to increase the volume on phone calls using Bluetooth headsets. Unless somebody can tell me a way to do it I don't think it works.

U have to enable viper it in the specific section, e.g. Bluetooth. U can check if it runs when pressing driver status while music is playing.
Also go to menu then UI SETTING and enable expert mode.
In the Bluetooth tab scroll all the way down and crank the output gain up. Done

Weird. I am having no issues. Neither in my car nor with my headset. Don't know any fix for that though, sorry.

It doesn't seem to work even after doing your suggestion. I guess I need a different method. Thanks for the assistance though.
Same issue for me. Installed via twrp restarted, connected to bt headphones, also car, music would not play thru any player. Used advanced mode too. Appears to break things in 3.2.1 requiring a reflash to fix as deleting apps and editing build.prop didn't fix at all.

it's possible to use viper on non-rooted device ?
i'm experiencing the same problem with my plantronics explorer 50 and onplus support told me that my device actually is not compatible.
Completly stock and no complains about bluetooth volume in my Volvo C70.
Certainly not with Music, for phone calls I should like it a little bit louder, but my Samsung S6 Edge is certainly not louder, and the audio quality for conversations (both ways) is even beter on the OP3.
Finally found a way to end audio lag in apps such as YouTube. After installing Viper4Android and thereby installing their audio driver, audio lag completely disappears. Just make sure to toggle the Master Switch to ON under each listening device tab you intend on using i.e. headset/ phone speaker.
Obviously you need to be rooted to use this method.

Wow! I was in doubt of buying this phone because of the audio problems. If the problem is as simple as proper audio driver, my choice will be easy!
Can someone confirm this?
Problem is that you have to be rooted to use it...

Lmao, P2 doesn't​ have any audio problems. It's just a small software issue that Lenovo are too lazy to fix! I recommend the phone with both hands.
Is the audio volume low during call? Or static noise during music playback from headphone jack.
Does viper fix all these issues? If yes in would buy this device...
im currently using slimrom 6.0.1 im getting problems in audio when headset is plug no sound loudspeak no sound, needs to restart the s3 before getting a sound
Bro when exactly did you start experiencing this issue ??
Have been battling with this issue over a yr or two.. And still looking for a solution. But am hoping a mod i here will be willing to work with me to eradicate or solve this issue once and for all

Possibly something`s wrong with your Kernel. I`m facing similar issue when I flash CM 13 or Lineage OS. I get no sound at all, The device is completely silent. But it works alright on stock rom Jelly bean 4.3 for SGH T999. So i`m sticking with stock rom until I find a way to fix this issue.
still cant find right mod for it

I tried that app to confirm I have no stereo sound. It only produces mono sound but both speakers work.
I also tried 2 pairs of headphones. Both play sounds in single channel sound through both sides. So I can say the phone is faulty. I noticed the problem today. I am sure this didn't happen yesterday.
How do I go about it? I just want to try something before needing to hard reset and wipe the phone data
I haven't installed new apps in the Last few days apart from the one above.
It's a 20X AL00 original Chinese rom 9.1 patch 120 so it's on the latest update.
I need ideas to try something. I have reset the phone already.
Did you enable mono audio in Settings>Smart Assistance>Accessibility ?

Thank you bro. That was the reason. The strange thing is I haven't enabled it myself so I don't know how this happened.
Hello everyone !
I am in love with this phone except for the fact that all of my bluetooth speakers and ear buds play at a SUPER low volume! All settings on max, checked dev options and couldn't see anything under audio that seemed to help, downloaded dozens of apps that seemed to make little to no difference, and also tried my very first ever ADB with computer and had no luck!
PLEASE tell me someone has solved this? This seems to be the elusive problem on the internet about this phone!
TIA !!!

Thanks so much for the quick reply!
I don't have absolute volume as an option in dev options for some reason! I can't find it anywhere which I thought was strange? Is there another way to access it??
Also my earbuds seem to be in good working condition for other devices.
Also in huawei I can't seem to find the clear cache option either - I have searched forever online and can't find it! The screenshots or app instructions seem to look different!
Any help with those? thanks!!!

Parodn me, when i type re-pair i meant do a RE-Pairing of bluetooth device to phone, aka un-pair then re-pair phone to device.
no idea why you do not have syn absolute volume in dev options
to clear cach u need to go setting=>app=> then click on the 3 dots on the top right of phone screen and tap show system process
there u will see Bluetooth and Bluetooth MIDI
clear data/cache for both to give it a try
Thanks so much ! I did exactly that and no luck! I appreciate the help, but yes I'm not sure at all why there is absolute volume option...Google for some reason isn't helping! Hope someone can !!! So frustrating !
SO frustrating still nothing is working !!!!
Perhaps you could try third party software like RE Equalizer from the Google Play store. You can boost volume with it.
