volume too low? - TG01 General

hi there people received this phone last night flashed two roms since. noticed that the sound is very low. the exception being through the headphones. is there a way to get the loudspeaker to be boosted a wee bit?

In most roms i tested audio is much enhanced compared to the stock one. Theres is always the "srs wow driver" solution. Also there is an "audio booster" app in some threads in this forum, do a search and try it out.

well ive tried audio booster and its made no difference. advanced config didnt have a sound option. even tried hd tweak to no avail. if anyone know of anything else i can try

My first advice
Use a cooked ROM from dedicated forum section, 'cause they have improved quality sound.
Second advice
Try this, but I warn you : it's possible to face "the sleeping beauty" issue.
1.Install in proper order.
2.Soft-reset after each installation.
3.After installation observe for a while(1-2 days, maybe less) the device behaviour when going to sleep automatically or by your command: if no awake, you're facing sleeping beauty, uninstall and try once more, if no success, you 're not one of the lucky guys that made it.
If success, you'll have a very noisy device!

[Q] Volume+ Issues

So after doing many hours of searching I truly believe I am the only person with this problem. If for some reason I have missed this problem already and it has been solved, I do apologize sincerely.
I just got a Samsung GS2 with AT&T, rooted it first thing, and flashed the UnNamed ROM. After having it for a few days now, the ringer volume and Alarm volume are too low for me to hear in my pocket. So upon doing a bit of digging, I came across an app called Volume+. I am sure many people know what this is and have recommended it to others with my same problem.
I say again, I have already installed this app!
However, after turning all the settings full blast, level 15 in most cases, there is no change in volume.
Reading more about the app, its SUGGESTED that I flash CM7 and remove the DSP Manager... but I don't want to do that. I don't care about removing the DSP Manager, but I happen to like the UnNamed ROM. Besides, they said they recommend the CM7 ROM but "should" work with others.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated here. I am new to this whole thing, but I do know Linux VERY well and I am not afraid to tinker with things I probably should't.
Thanks again.

i had this issue as well. Try this, go to applications/manage applications/ and clear the data in volume+, then, without opening it, reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then reboot as normal, open volume+ and use these settings: speaker settings/check speaker modifications(leave virtual room unchecked/ then go to EQ settings, select "good quality"/then select 15 under volume level, leave everything else alone! let me know how it works out for you, cause i see a HUGE difference with this app, and i use it on all my ROMs, which is at least 15 if not more that ive flashed.

[Q] CM 7.1 low sound volume and a market that keeps freezing

Hello, for the past few weeks i've been using cm 7.1 on my i9100 and I'd be glad to say that the rom is perfect, if some issues didn't come up. Firstly, since the first day of use, i've realized that the sound volume (both from speaker and headset) is fairly low compared to samsung's rom (to be frank going above 50-60% in volume options doesn't make a difference). Is there any solution to this? CM 9 apart from the "known issues" got that bug too?
The second problem came up a few days ago and it's related to the android market app. Everytime you scroll through an app's details, the phone freezes and the only way to restore it, is to turn it off and on again. Currently, i'm using app brain which doesn't seem to have that problem, but i really love google's app. So, any solution to that?
Try the app in my sig to give the headset/headphone volume a boost, works really well & only distorts the volume at very high levels (>75% which you shouldn't need). There are apps on the Market which can boost the speaker volume, not sure how well these work as I haven't tried any.
So far as the Market is concerned, I use a CM based rom and have had that problem as well. The only fix I've come across/read about is to restore a much earlier version of the market (hopefully someone else reads this thread and has a fix that can help both of us ). I haven't done this myself as I've trained myself to do all my scrolling thru app details on my PC first & simply do the install/update on my phone without scrolling thru the details , but I'm sure a search on here should dig up something/the apk you need.
Ask in the right place may get an answer quicker .

[Q] Rom stability

Hi everyone, sorry my english is bad, i have a question for you.
All roms i had tried seems to be rock solid, after a week the whole roms that i flash begins to give me some problems, after 2 weeks often screen remain black after a lost call.
this without any settings change..
someone else have this problem?
vivalatopa
Please be specific...
Which roms have you tried and with which kernels?
Hey
I think the "problems" you got are not problems
from the rom itself.
It's our device that is not the best for performance etc.
Some roms are way too much for it
and the others can be good in the start but when
you install lot apps or tweaks or even personalize it to your
asthetic preferences the phone have way too much work to do
in the background.
Maybe you should think about upgrading your hardware

thank you, i think that it's possible.
anyway i'll try the only slightly stable, minicm6.
mini cm will be good and most stable for me
Now i'm trying minicm6 with a packet that can be flashed by cwm called "Sensor_Fix.zip"
, this file i found searching for the "black screen after call" problem. I'm thinking the second problem is the
small ram quickly fillable so i'm testing a memory tool.
I'm pleasantly surprised because the phone reset only one time in 4 days of the new rom flash
thank you
if someone need to solve the black screen ask me the file, it seems to work.

no, i think thats not the problem, simply after call the screen stay off, i must reboot because i can't use it.
seem's to be stable after the flashing of a zip file that is done to fix this problem.

ONLY POST QUESTIONS YOU HAVE REGARDING ISSUES YOU DO NOT SEE IN THIS FAQ
"Q" and "A" SOLUTIONS THAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS THREAD
ISSUES WITH CURRENT SOLUTIONS IN THIS THREAD THAT DIDN'T SOLVE A PROBLEM
OR ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE REGARDING CM10.1 ITSELF! I HOPE TO FILL THIS THREAD UP WITH MANY MORE Q AND A SOLUTIONS TO HELP OTHER USERS AND DECREASE UNNECESSARY POSTS IN DEVELOPER SECTIONS! IF YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE: PLEASE FEEL FREE TO DO SO!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I flashed CM10.1 but my GPS won't lock. Is there a solution?
A: Absolutely!
(Optional) Use TitaniumBackup to backup your apps+data
Use Recovery to Backup your current state (System, Data, Boot)
Flash a Sense ROM of any kind (I use MeanBean)
(Don't forget to do your wipes, of course)
*Once booted into a Sense ROM*
Make sure your GPS is turned ON and open up Google Maps
Wait for your GPS to lock
Reboot into Recovery and Restore your Backup
(Don't forget to do your wipes, of course)
*Once booted back onto your CM10.1*
Make sure GPS is turned ON and open up Google Maps
Your GPS should now lock.​
Q: I noticed screen tearing (glitch-like symptoms) on my CM10.1. Is there a solution?
A: Absolutely!
Go into Developer Options
Scroll down to "Disable HW Overlays"
Check the box to disable
Screen tearing is now gone.
NOTE! You will need to do this on each reboot!​
Q: Developer Options don't exist on my CM10.1. Is it hidden?
A: Kind of.
Go into About
Scroll all the way down and tap the build 7 times
You will notice a message saying Developer Options was unlocked.​
Q: How do I get the Play Store on my CM10X?
A: You'll need to download a compatible GApps (Google Apps
You can find the latest GApps in this thread​
Q: Why isn't my WiFi connecting?
A: That issue is usually caused by your router. Simply reset or unplug your router for 15 seconds and try again.
Q: I installed an AOSP kernel and my phone has been rebooting. Why is that?
A: The kernel may not be supported with your current ROM.
Some kernels have a voltage script provided by the builder. Ask the developer if there is one available.
You can also download Kernel Tuner from the Play Store to change voltage.​
Q: Voltage? Kernel Tuner? What now...?
A: Within' Kernel Tuner you will want to go into Voltage and use the "All +12.5 mV" which will up the Voltage in all areas. I found that having 192MHz at 900mV will make CM10.1 plenty stable while not affecting battery life significantly. ROM and Kernel may very. Do some Trial and Error to see what is suitable for you
Q: My internal storage says I have less than I really should. Did I ruin my internal SD Card?
A: No. Don't panic.
All you need to do is Wipe your Internal Storage.
Backup your files if you don't want to lose them, of course.
Problem should be solved.
Issue usually occurs when flashing from Sense to AOSP or flashing numerous ROM's in a short period of time.​
Q: Where can I find the latest Deck Builds?
A: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2110920
You can also check the iRC channel (info in the thread above)
Also, search Google for "CM10 EVO LTE irc" and click the first link​
Q: Should I flash Nightly Builds or Deck's Builds?
A: Nightly Builds are official CM builds which don't include all of Deck's maintenance, tweaks, etc... You'll find that Deck's Builds just happen to be more stable.

That is pretty weird. I had that problem on the EVO 3D before. Were you or are you using any custom kernel, kernel tuner, or scripts at all?
I know, too, that the battery does seem to drain a bit fast at first but then it gets more subtle. MeanBean has been draining me worse than CM10.1 right now.

MeanBean has never treated me well on battery life no matter what I do. Not on my replacement anyway. On my other LTEvo it was working great. But... CM10.1's battery life shouldn't be that bad. Could always use Kernel Tuner to manage the CPU and Gov. a bit. Trial and error until you find a satisfied combination. I generally use Ondemand as opposed the interactive. I noticed Ondemand gave me better battery life. Haven't done much with the CPU speeds in a while so I'm not going to be too much help there... I also use System Panel to monitor apps, system, memory, and use its built-in task killer.

How to disable shutter sound?
In older versions of CM there used to be an option in system settings to disable the shutter sound in the camera app. I can't seem to find any options either in the camera settings or in the system settings for this in CM10.1. Anyone know if this is there or not? Or is it coming in a future version?

I had some trouble with apps wakelocking (for lack of a better word) when I first installed CM10.1. You can identify some of those with the wakelock detector app.

Thanks for putting this post together. I have always used Sense but have been wanting to try a CM10.1 ROM. This information is very helpful.
A question that I have is what bugs or issues are currently associated with CM10.1? Most of the CM10.1 ROMs under Bug List say "Any bugs currently in latest CM10.1." Is there a centralized place that lists all of the issues? Thanks.

The only thing I noticed going wrong was my background will occasionally disappear (go black). Sometimes it will pulsate or strobe. Only happens when I sleep the phone while in Messages, and wake the phone. After unlocking, the background will either be black, be black for a while and all of the sudden pop my background image back up, or just act normal. I have no customizations or anything so I'm not sure why this occurs. Otherwise, the Vertical orientation option for the App Drawer is still messy as it always has been. That's all I've noticed but I haven't tested the music player yet .

Power Shutter? If so, that's in the Camera app settings. Click the bottom-right screen-button and choose the bottom-center settings screen-button. I also have apps that'll randomly open when I wake the phone but I figured that was just because of the phone being in my pocket, turning on, and going to the app. It will open to the clock.

Actually, not referring to Power-Shutter. I'm referring to the actual sound that is made when you take a photo. It's a bit jarring/annoying to have it "dleep!" when I take photos. Back in CM7 I remember that we could turn that sound off.

And as you'll find stated numerous times: the latest touchpanel firmware isn't yet supported with most, if not all, AOSP ROM's. S-OFF, which will make you downgrade, and you'll be able to use your AOSP ROM's. And then you can update to the latest firmware minus the tp update.

You can try Audio Compatibility Patch. It has worked for me on other devices, and the Dev just updated Samsung support two days ago. I'm about to give it a try myself. I have the same problem. Viper doesn't process audio from my browser. I believe it's a deep buffer issue. Only my system apps get processed. It should work without magisk too. Definitely read the post before flashing it. I've honestly never had an issue using it in the past though.
Correction, will not work without magisk! I can't get it flash using SuperSU for root. If you have magisk, I would definitely give it shot. I'm going to look into swapping my superuser so I can test it.
And there is a another mic problem in whats app only on AOSP based roms

My mistake. I read AOSP, and for some reason thought stock touchwiz. I did some searching around, and it might be related to Ok Google. I found many reports saying that turning it off fixes the robotic voice. This might be a good place to start looking.
