I flashed the AOKP Jelly Bean Build 3 ROM last week and nothing was wrong but after I bought new earphones (with a volume control + mic) today, my notifications have being going through my speakers instead of my earphones. Even when I tried using my old earphones (which doesn't have volume control buttons or a mic), the sound still goes through my speakers. Is there any way to solve this?
Hi, I'm using Note 2 with stock ROM unrooted
I think an app such as Viber or WhatsApp are interfering with volume on it.
Sometimes when I plug in my earphones to listen to music, the volume level stays the same as before, however it is obviously not as loud as it should be. Maximum volume is only about half the actual volume. Then I have to restart the phone.
This is annoying, is there a fix?
This may be a weird one, I am aware... BUT:
I connected bluetooth headphones to my S9 for the first time last night, and it was mind-blowingly loud, not in a good way. Even with the volume all the way down, it was almost painful to listen to music at the gym.
Do you guys know of any apps that can make sound quieter or adjust volume to be somewhere between the bottom volume option and the 'volume off' level?
I toggled dolby atmos on and off to see if that made any difference, and when I turned it on it seemed to get a little louder, which I expected. I also went through the audio profile customization, and while the audio sounds great, it's still too loud
Any ideas?
Thanks!.
I may have solved this one on my own, so I'll post the potential solution for anyone who may run into this issue in the future
In developer options, theres a toggle for 'disable absolute volume' - turn this ON.
Some Bluetooth speakers or devices might have issues working with Android’s volume control. Normally, changing the volume on your phone should change the volume of the Bluetooth device. Some devices don’t work with this feature, or have the volume become extremely quiet or super loud.
If you’ve experienced this problem with your devices, try enabling this setting. Otherwise, you should leave it turned off for normal functionality.

That's it. I had the same on my Pixel 2 XL but I kept it set to "Off" because it still gets super quiet too if I need. It could be because the Pixel 2 has 25 volume steps rather than 15
On my note 9 there is also an option without the need of the developer mode:
Go to settings -> bluetooth -> advanced
There should be an option like "media volume sync"
Turn that one off and you can turn down the volume on your headphones separately.
I have a pair of Bose Bluetooth headphones, andnwhilenon a flight I tried to watch a movie.....to discover the volume was so low I could barely hear anything. I switched over to my Pixel 3 XL and the volume was quite loud.
What's up with this? Is there a hidden setting somewhere or an app to bring up the volume?
I am having an issue where when attached to my Bluetooth in my car I can not adjust my in-call volume in my phone. It gets stuck at 50%. I can adjust media volume no problem when playing music and can adjust the in-call volume in other Bluetooth devices like my buds+ and galaxy watch.
Any ideas how to fix this? It results in either very quiet call volume or when the call ends the music is crazy loudly.
I have this same issue.
Me too
Don't suppose anyone has managed to resolve this yet? It's still happening with me with Android 11 update.
Disabled absolute volume?
Make sure volume limiter is not enabled.
Clear system cache.
Reset network settings.
I have the same problem on tcl 55p83 ( RT851)
bluetooth max volume is limited to 50%
Any help ?
I have the same issue.... Just figured it was normal to keep distortion or feedback at a minimal?? But, maybe it isn't?
