imcrease audio settings - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have a galsxy s2 gt-9100 that is running 4.0.3 (xxlp6) rooted and i want to change the audio setting as the in call volume is low. I have done allot of reading on this but have not get found a answer to this. I have entered the code to access the service menu and select option 5 which just says audio, but it just refreshes to the same menu.
I have tried a different kernel and the menu use to say audio is blocked.
Im stuck now any ideas would be most appreciated.

And you have already set the volume level to maximum in Sound settings?!
If that is not loud enough for you, try to flash latest SiyahKernel and increase the extra sound settings in STweaks app (which will automatically installed after flashing the kernel).
Maybe this can help.
Good luck !

am i right this kernel is only 6 mb in size??

i have flashed with obin but there is no change have i done something wrong?

You must change settings in STweaks.
Flashing kernel without changing settings will have no effect.

[Q] Intro tune playing after kernel flash?

I searched before posting this so if its already been answered I apologize.
I am running Touch X-Power KI8 and running siyah1.7.8 - I went to flash the latest speedmod kernel and when I reboot there is some ring tone/samsung intro sound type thing that just loops and loops and won't stop playing!
If I flash back to siyah everything goes back to normal - clearing davlik and cache on speedmod does nothing either - am I am not willing to wipe user data just to use speedmod - odd thing is, I was on speedmod, went to siyah no problem, but cannot go back unless i want to endure this awful ringtone type song playing over and over and over..
anyone?
Boot sound will be normally in
/system/etc/PowerON.wav (File name could be different and format could be ogg)
Replace it with a different soundless wav file (same name) and see if problem still exist.
I will try it out but its not even the boot sound - its the " Over the Horizon" ringtone but I can't figure why the hell it would loop once booted up - and other audio just plays at the same time - ie I go mess around in the sound settings and it just plays the ringtone over that horizon one already playing/looping
in case someone has the same issue - I resolved it by flashing speedmod k2-3 and deleting that stupid ringtone - don't know which solved it as i was getting issue on speedmod k2-2

[Q] The screen doesn't wake up | CheckRom RevoHD V4

Hi all, this is my first post, and i searched the forum with no luck. I have a CheckRom RevoHD V4 with the Siyah Kernel 2.6.1. The problem is that my screen won't wake up after some time that it's turned off. It doesn't happen always... it's seems a random behavior... The volume keys works because i can hear the sound of volume up and volume down, but the touchscreen, softkeys, power button and home button doesn't work at all and i can't get my home screen back. I need to remove the battery to reboot the GS2... I experienced this problem with te DarkNight kernel too. I tried to call my phone, i can hear the calling tone but the cellphone doesn't ring. I don't know if it's a rom related problem or it's a kernel problem. Hope someone can help me.
Ps: Sorry for my english
Hello I have a CheckRom v4 for my phone.i think that you to flash again with odin DarkNight kernel version 2.5.2 flash only kernel as a pda with odin
i tried to flash the new siyah kernel 2.6.4 trough CWM but not solved my problem... there is some difference between flashing trough odin an flashing trough CWM?
I have System Tuner for tweaking and set the kernel governor... i don't know if there is some incompatibility with this app and other apps like widgetlooker that need root permissions... really i don't know how i can solve this issue...

There you have your problem.
so are you sure that the problem it's related to system tuner?

Probably. If you undervolt or underclock your phone to much, you wil get SOD's. That is basic knowlegde if you want to use those apps.
ah ok... but i don't use OC/UC or UV/OV... i only use this for change governors... but i have a question about SOD: the volume keys works in these cases? Cause mine works when display doesn't wakeup...
I'm having the same problem with this rom and kernel. I do not uv or oc. I left those settings alone.
It's really annoying and have left me missing calls because I cannot pick them up.

[Q] Call Audio issues in ICS

I installed Resurrection Remix 2.5.1 (ICS) yesterday with the CM9 Kernel. Everything works (i think) up until I tried making a phone call. I have no audio during phone calls (I can still make them, i just can't hear or be heard). Audio works in other apps, such as music and games. The mic works when i try to use voice commands. I reflashed RR 2.5.1 with again, and tried the Siyah Kernel, and again using fluxi Kernel. I've rebooted the phone a dozen times, still no luck.
I had this issue the last time i tried to use an ICS rom (i tried 3 or 4 different roms about 3 months ago, all had the same issue). I downgraded to a GB rom (Unleased)and the phone was fine.
Any ideas?
(Aslo is the hardware back button and search button supposed to be disabled in ICS?)
2.5.1 is an AOKP ROM so I would suggest that from GB you flash an ICS stock firmware via Odin to get the bootloader installed properly and then you will need to do a full-wipe(possibly format system/data/cache if it helps)and then install.AOKP if not installed properly over AOSP will cause problems.

The i9100 doesn't have a search button. The i9100 has a hardware home button, with a menu button on one side, and a back button on the other. This is the forum for the i9100...
If you really meant what you said about your phone having a search button, then I doubt you have an i9100. Check the label under your battery for model number.
EDIT to add; if you DO in fact have an i9100 and are just confused about the search/menu button... It sounds like you could also be describing an issue caused by a missing /efs/imei/keystr file. Do you also lack a power button menu, and the phone just shuts off if you hold the power button down? If so, are you missing that file?
If the answer is yes, make sure you are rooted, create an /efs/imei/keystr file containing the word ON.
Hmm. i didnt notice the AT&T version of the phone (the I777) had its own subforum. That's probably most of my issue, thanks for pointing it out.

[Q] galaxy s2 service mode (5) AUDIO not working

hi guys,
i did look all over the forum and searched all google and still no solution any help would be great thanks alot in front,
the other voice of the person i am talking to is extremely low so i tried to update to the latest firmware and that is (XWLPM) 4.0.4.
but i still have the same problem as before, so i read that there is an service mode with extra options.
the thing is that i can get into service mode, and i dont get like other users error that says blocked or what ever.
and all the menu is working as it should be, but only number 5 in the menu and that is the "AUDIO" option that i need to access to change my volume.
when ever i press on option 5 "AUDIO" it send me back to the main menu,
Notes :
i tried accessing it by ("KEY INPUT" AND "Select") but with the same result.
i tried removing the battery, but still the same result.
please any help would be great.

To be able to access that menu you need an older radio. I flashed one from the GB roms: XXKH3
thanks a lot bkraptor, your advice worked and i can access the volume on that menu, but i changed it to maximum on every thing and still the same problem, i installed many apps like volume+ and equalizers but nothing works.
i was thinking is it possible that its a hardware problem ? but if the headphone is broken, why there is voice coming out ? shouldn't i be hearing nothing ?
i also had 4.0.4 LPT which has XXLQ6 modem , audio menu was not working, so i flashed XXKI3 modem, now it works!

Ok, I've been rooting and swapping rom's and stuff for a month so I'm obviously an expert (JK, not at all). If I understand you correctly, you flashed a GB Modem onto ICS right? This made option 5 available? Also, if you reboot does it reset values to default like it does on stock everything?

yes, i had ICS LPT build with 4.0.4, i flashed the old modem, audio menu working, enable WB-AMR (for HD voice) , all ok, and after a week i flashed a new version of the ROM , still LPT build , and the flasher also put LQ6 back on, so audio menu not working again, but WB-AMR remained enabled, so i don't need the audio menu now, so i stick with LQ6

How do you know that WB-AMR remained enabled without accessing the audio menu?
EDIT: Found that the ServiceMode shows the WB-AMR Status
this really works .... Change ur RADIO ...
i Switched to XXLPJ from xxlq6 ... now menu is unlocked..
i guess the blocked menu are related to RADIOS.... and they depend whether samsung allowed customization over certian Radios.

A bit late, but; how do I change the radio? My loudspeaker is very low, I barely hear it (headset, BT, microphone are OK). I cleaned it of dust, but it is very low. It is korean edition (SHW-250S) converted to i9100 and flashed with SlimBean RC1 4.2.1. It was also low volume when on stock korean.
Now I want to bump the volume via service menu, but the audio menu is blocked.
Do you think I should replace the loudspeaker?
Thanks!
Can someone put modem file for 2.3.6 XWKL1, baseband version DDKL1
edit: found it!!!

Volume keys NOT working on Vanilla RootBOX rom

Hi there!
A few hours ago i've install the Vanilla RootBOX rom, i have to say that everthing its fine and working with the exception of volume keys.
They do the animation on screen; Volumen up, down and vibrate, BUT physically the volume intensity stay the same.
I notice this the moment ill start to testing the music apps (Apollo) runs smoothly, but i cant turn the volume down, the same whit the other music player, Google Music and Walkman Player.
Does anyone have the same problem, ill already do the search and cant find anything. Any solutions?
Thanks!:good:
UPDATE
I notice that my Galaxy sII don't detect the earphones, this may have a connection with the other problem.
Please refer to my thread in my sig (the last one). It will help you to get proper answers.
