{Media volume} Z2F media volume too loud. Any suggestion? - Moto Z2 Force Questions & Answers

Hi guys, I've got a problem with Z2F. Currently using Oreo and too loud using mute+1 media volume. Tried gravity box for more steps but no help.
I tried an app called Precise Volume from Google Play, It can lower volume to a comfort zone. But its buggy and the volume reset itself in some condition.
The Precise Volume shows that mute+1 volume is 36% and after gravity box more steps it's 34%.
How can I change the first step manually or anything help?
Many thanks!
And forgive me for my poor English.

[Q] App to increase volume by small increments

Hi guys
Hope I am posting this in the right place. I'm looking for an app that allows me to increase the volume on my gs2 by smaller increments than the volume rocker does standard? Basically every time i hit up or down on the volume rocker the difference is huge. I can't seem to find the right volume for music. One notch will be too quiet, the next one up is too loud. My setup is:
2.3.4 stock, unrooted
Equalizer app custom eq
poweramp eq
Ultimate ears super fi noise isolating headphones
I use these settings and apps because standard it sounds rubbish. i've finally got my sounds right, but can't get the right volume! I've tried heaps of apps from the market, volume+, volume control, etc. All increase the volume by the standard 10% increment rather than the 5% i'm looking for. Fine volume control sort of worked, but it seemed after i adjusted the volume it would quickly revert in a second or two.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi, that shouldn't be happening; are you using the hardware volume buttons to change the volume? You have to use the dial or in-app sliders to modify the volume, if you use any other app to change the volume (or the rocker buttons), then it will move in larger increments.
If you need more a longer time to trial it, then PM/email me your UUID (menu/preferences then hold down your back button)
Thanks, I will give this another try and report back.

With some more experimentation, this works really well, so I bought it two things I was wondering about though, is there any way to lock volume, as I must be knocking as it shoots right up, and is there any way to save as a preset?

Presets are a possible future addition.
Not sure about volume lock, there are apps in the market like "RingGuard" and "Volume Locker" which would work - but only if you moved the volume enough to trigger an API level volume change, which is approx every 10-20%.

The volume slider shoots up when you press the hardware volume buttons? That's normal - it's because of how your device volume is calibrated (by the ROM).
The default volume stages aren't evenly spread across the entire available range. Our app shows the full range available, so when you press the volume buttons (from outside our app) it can appear to jump. It is effectively jumping, because the default API doesn't allow you to access those volume levels that lie between jumps (but you can with fine volume).
Basically, all other volume control apps and the Android system show the volume in terms of API volume levels. Fine volume control shows the volume in terms of the full available range. All other apps (and the volume hardware buttons) change the volume in terms of API levels.
It shoots up when using the dial. I've tried changing the sensitivity as well. Seems to always shoot media volume to 94%. It only does this occasionally though. All in all a great app!

Just to confirm, the dual on the far left is the overall volume? So if I am at 90% media volume but 7% overall, the media volume is 90% of the 7%, not of its possible maximum?

No, each slider is independent from the rest (ringer and notification are locked together though). There is no overall volume control.
The slider on the left (Android logo) is "System" volume, things like Screen lock sounds.
I have a rooted HTC Desire running Cyanogenmod 7 for which I wanted fine volume control. I like to be able to change volume using the rocker but it instantly shoots to 100% and that is extremely painful when using canalphones. I have uninstalled fine volume control 2 because I don't want to run the risk of insane volume levels.
Does anyone have any idea if this can be built into the volume API and have reliable hardware control?

Were you using the dial/overlay to change the volume?
Did the overlay not respond to your initial gesture, then suddenly "catch-up"?
Were you turning the volume up when it jumped?
I'm really sorry about this, I'll try and put in some volume limiter to prevent it happening.

Sorry for the late reply.
Dial/overlay worked as expected. what was causing problems was accidental use of the hardware buttons. Because that is what I am used to using. The app does not change hardware button behaviour and actually makes it worse as the volume can go almost instantly from 0 to 100% when touching the rocker.

The main volume app component overrides the hardware buttons and increases/decreases the volume by 1% each time you tap the button.
If the main volume app isn't currently on top, it can't override the hardware buttons (the overlay can't override either). It's a limitation of the Android system.
Each time you hit the hardware buttons from outside of the app, the volume will change in the default way (15 stages for media).
I've had a few reports of a bug when using earphones on the SGSII of erratic volume levels, so I have since added a volume limiter for when using headphones to workaround that sort of issue.

Volume+ semi-functional, still too low in-call volume

Initially, my nexus's speaker volume and incall volume are both really low even at maximum settings. After browsing around xda, I found people recommending volume+ so I paid $1.62 and got the full version. Speaker volume is loud enough now, although I feel the quality is not very good. I don't use speaker to listen to music so it's not a big problem.
There's also in-call volume setting in volume+. I set it to 90 and strange things happens: When I use skype, in call volume is extremely high, I can almost treat it like I'm on speaker. It feels like the settings are working. However, for regular calls, the in-call volume stays the same, still too low for most cases. I can only hear people in quiet rooms. I barely hear anything on a street. Setting in-call volume to other numbers doesn't change the result. So my result is volume+ is only semi-functional. Any other fix for in call volume?
In call volume is the only api not exposed so it cant be increased. Btw everyone goes for volume+ but equalizer by smart apps is free and i much prefer over volume+.
Anybody has any other ideas? Low call volume is really annoying
Still nobody? Everyone‘s incall volume is loud enough?
Basically what the guy above just said:

Just did a test:
Removed in call settings
Speaker to +10
Called *611 (bell customer service) let the automated machine start talking..
Click volume down on rocker a few times then clicked volume up a few times and the sound increasef to am acceptable level.
However when i clicked up one to many times it almost mutes volume but the onscreen indicater is at max (found this odd).
Saw this on the thread you gave. I have the same situation. There exists a maximum in-call volume at around 3/4 of the bar. It's enough for regular use but still a bit low
low volume on calls
Still no one comes with a solution, the volume on the gnex is very low on call especially outside...thanks

I have the same problem using ZTE Blade... volume+ didn't work.
I think there solutions, many roms developer put on their changelog things like "in-call volume boosted" then I ask how you did that and no one anwers...
Anyway I did some research and I found on the rom i'm using a file named libaudio.so that says:
Setting in-call volume to %d (available range is 0 to 7)
Guess that for me increasing steps with volume+ only has efect until 7...
Maybe i'm being stupid... can someone with more experience analyse this?

[Q] NO Volume for any app

I have t-mobile galaxy note 2 fr a week and today all of sudden, there is no volume from speaker for any app

ringtone when somebody calls
I attach headset,i can here voice but without that no volume for any app.
I also tried with and without WIFI - volume setting is all ok ( keep max or change to mid - but no luck)
I already try hard reset but no luck. It is NOT rooted.
any input will be great - last i will try to get replacement for this
When you hit volume up, then hit the settings cog next to the volume sliding bar, can you manipulate the sound there?

thanks for reply. that give same option to configure sound.
no luck
I feel it is speaker issue ( hardware)
I would try a master reset, if that didn't work then it's time for a trip to TMo for a replacement.
Let us know what the problem was when you figure it out.

[Q] Music Volume Lower After Answering Call

I play music off my phone in the car. After I answer a call, the music resumes at a much lower volume, despite the fact that I haven't touched the volume on the phone or car. I have to press volume up 3 times and it doesn't go gradually up, but instantly from the low volume to the high it was at. Is there a setting to get the music volume to maintain? Using poweramp. Thanks
Anyone have a similar issue? I remember having it on the GNex as well but fixed it somehow. Cannot remember how, though. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I continue to experience this same problem on stock 4.1.2 ROM. I suspect it is a bug in the ROM. I don't know how to duplicate the problem because I have gotten calls and the volume was correctly restored. I've also tried making calls and the volume was correctly restored.
check all your sound setting and make sure that the volume is up on the system part of the sound menu...i had the same problem ...that seemed to fix it for me...

HELP!!! Low Volume problem on my N7?

I have a problem with my N7 2013
All of sudden the volume doesn't work, well is working but the volume is very very low when I go to YouTube the audio is very low and the dock and keyboard sound I can't bearly hear it. I just check in setting and the media and other volumes are at max and I did a reboot and nothing.
Also when I press the volume button it shows a phone (picture down below)
All of this happens today. I don't know if this have to do with a Bluetooth keyboard I bough today (minisuit keyboard for the N7)
Can some one please help me I will appreciate it.
PS. Sorry for my bad spelling I'm from Puerto Rico

Help With Volumes
When you are turning the volume up, tap that small icon on the right and it will bring up the other volumes and then just slide the volume bars to the volume you want.
If you want to turn up, main volume the one with the speaker icon is the one you want
The screenshot you have attached, bares no relevance to volume. As you cans see, that is the volume for incall volume or ringtone. Have you recently installed an app for texting or making phone calls? As above, you need to make sure you are changin your media volume, not your "phone" volume. If you have an android phone, use the volume buttons on the home screen, it will display the same slider bar in your picture. Open a game and press the volume button and it will change to the slider bar for audio output.
Yeah try hugelife advice and you see that dock sound in the screen try ticking it and trying again.
