Why is it there is some contacts.apk has a decent high volume and there is some other contacts.apk has a very low volume such as Xperia Arc dialer.
Is there any way to increase the in-call volume for any contacts.apk ?

hmmmmmm.. did the manager really work??
is there is any tweak to increase the volume without apps
More and more speaker volume
If you want to increase your speaker volume, you can try:
1) Look at your screen. Is the plastic screen protector closing the speaker hole (above the logo "Sony Ericsson")?
2) Look at your sound settings. The hardware buttons aren't always good enough for this. You can use some app like "Volume Control +" or "Quick Settings" (both free at the Market), or "AudioManager", or any other solution that lets you see all your volume options.
3) You can also install the free attached equalizer DSPmanager.apk. After activate it (checking the proper box), you need to raise up the bars that corresponds to the frequencies you want to boost. Some people say it doesn't work, some people say that it helps a lot.
4) As a last option you can install the free attached AudioHack.apk. In my case, it worked with "V2" + "Push". See which button (V1, V2 or V3) plus "Push" can increase your volume.
5) If none of the above works for you, maybe you just have to put up with using the earphone all the time. Some people find the earphone cool.
hello to all
ok it seems that going/testing different roms the ring volume and bluetooth volume varies from rom to rom
is there a way to boost the ring and bluetooth volume with going to add ons .thanks
Try qpst. It's a program that will allow you to increase the ring volume and maybe Bluetooth too. Google is your best friend and savior

been there done that have them at 4 no change in volume
Well then it could be a hardware issue or a rom issue. You didn't specify what you had done to fix the problem either. Didn't you read the warning on the guide that pushing your volumes to 4 could ruin your speakers in the phone? You may have to live with that problem or go get it fixed. Sorry I couldn't help you.
REQUIRES PERSEUS KERNEL 34.2 OR ABOVE
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage this app may cause.
This app is now open sourced and is available at:
https://github.com/EternalMelody/HeadphoneAmpControl
This app allows the user to handily change Headphone Amplifier Levels. Root access is required for file permission changes to the following files:
-"/sys/class/misc/wolfson_control/headphone_left"
-"/sys/class/misc/wolfson_control/headphone_right"
Two launchers can be found in the app drawer. One launches the Control app, another launches an overlay dialog for quick amplification level changes.
App Guide:
-Balance L/R toggle: Toggles amplification level balance between the left and right channels. When checked, disables the right channel seekbar and copies the left channel amplification level value to the right channel.
-Main seekbars: Current amplification level values. The top one is left channel's, bottom one is right channel's. The minimum and maximum values are defined by "Min level" and "Max level".
Control App Guide:
-Min level seekbar: Minimum amplification level that is settable by the main seekbars. Cannot be higher than safety level or max level.
-Max level seekbar: Maximum amplification level that is settable by the main seekbars. Cannot be lower than safety level or min level.
-Toggle service (notification bar shortcut): Enables notification shortcut. Must be checked to enable safety level. Notification only appears when headset is currently plugged in.
-Toggle volume button hack: Automatically sets checked volume type to almost max. The volume buttons can then be used to directly adjust amp levels, depending on context. The seekbar determines amp level jump.
-Hack music volume: Enables volume button hack for music, media, video, and games volume
-Hack voice call volume: Enables volume button hack for voice call volume
-Hack ring volume: Enables volume button hack for call ringtone volume
-Safety level: When headset is plugged in the first time, the current amplification level is compared with the safety level. If current level is higher than the safety level, then the current level is lowered to the safety level.

Ok but...
First time that I'm first
Any explanation about what this mod does? Must be based on stock ROMS or AOSP/AOKP works too?
Re: [APP] HeadphoneAmpControl
Thanks for this, one of the handier features I've missed from the Voodoo days.

Check the Perseus kernel thread in original dev.
Perseus only works with Samsung-based ROMs, Andreilux just implemented a new audio engine & this app allows for on the fly headphone amp volume changes, either unified or broken down to left/right channels. Stweaks has the same functionality under the audio tab, but also does every other kernel tweak, & it's slow & janky.

What onslaught86 said. By the way, I see from your sig that you are using NEAK kernel. Would you mind trying whether or not my app works with that kernel? I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Nevermind, I tested it myself and it doesn't work on NEAK. They have different implementations of Boeffla Sound.
Volume button hack added
I've tried using this, but the problem is that I can't find a way to keep both volume notifications from popping up.
On top of that, each time the volume is changed, the system interprets it as if it were a headphone disconnect, and whatever you are playing stops playing. So either you have to disable that setting in all your apps and take the risk of blaring something if your headphones get unplugged, or just never adjust the volume.
Anyone know how to get around these problems? The first one is just an annoyance, but the second one makes it unusable for someone like me (who constantly adjusts the volume).
I use many headphones, so being able to control hiss would be nice. Perhaps it would be better to use profiles that are user selectable, and then use the digital control to make minor modifications?

Unfortunately there's no easy way that I know of to get around the first problem with the volume button hack. If this functionality were to be embedded in a ROM then its possible but as an app it can only rely on volume change intents.
I can't reproduce the second problem though.
By the way, in the meantime, you can still use the app without the volume button hack.
Interesting. When ASOP is stable on our phone, I'm going to come back to this. If needed, I can make my own mods to make things work the way I want. Will share if that's the case. Hate manufacturer "features". Like stupid WIndows 8 and all the preinstalled Metro apps.
nice work
Awesome job thanks for all the hard work works great...I wish there something like for Bluetooth headsets for phones call I hate the low volume level on the note 2
Rockin it from my Macknote2

Hey EternalMelody,
First, thanks very much for this nice app. great job!
Regarding the quoted discussion, any chance that the first problem can be solved via an xposed framework module?
The second one can be reproduced if you use youtube and try to adjust the volume. I think it's because adjusting the volume is causing the headphone amp to jump to the foreground and sends youtube to the background so it automatically pauses.
Thanks, and keep up the good work! :good:
First of all, I wanna say thank you for this nice app
But there's one thing which I don't like.. The sliders for the Balance are too big and the circle is not at the end of the line :/ I managed to get rid of the to big circles with resizing them from 64x64 to 32x32. Now everything's fine(except that they're not at the end of the line, but that is hard to notice anyway. )
Would be great if you could fix that one
Great app, have been using it with Perseus for a long time now and it makes my Note2 the primary music player for me now.
Wonder if you'd consider making the app work with the NEAK kernel for Note 2 as well? I'd do it myself but i haven't a clue how to do it. I want to move away from TW roms and NEAK is the only kernel with Boeffla sound on AOSP as far as I know.

Hey guys,
I got a problem. IGO Prima seems to be really quiet when i have it on max volume.
Is there a fix for that?

I had same prob with Here and Waze alerts. Very quiet even the voce navigation was loud enough.
1. Be sure iGO is configured as default 'navigation' I.e. 'gps' app in settings
2. Set sound more to switch not to mix
That solved voice navigation level for me.
But... Alerts were still very low.
Found out that voice and us treated as 'GPS' channel while everything else (alerts) are treated as System channel.
So in order to rebalance you have:
1. In Factory settings lower radio and other audio channels and increase system until you are satisfied with their relative levels (yes the levels are relative in relation to overall volume level you set via main volume / button / sec)
2. Use some of custom modules (if included in your custom ROM - Mal for example includes several in the same time that allow to change different apps / channels sound kevels)
I found out that Factory defaults + custom modules may make a mess over volume control... So check everything and especially if there are contradictory settings in different modules

Volume control of Blueooth is HELL on my Sony Z5 Compact.
step 2 is too low and step 3 is too loud (ARGHGHGH)
So i was thinking that maybe i could simply disable volume control and control them seperately ?
eg set the phone to eg 50% and then use the volume control on the speaker (Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 3)
if i plug in the phone using Minijack i can do this - but then its not wireless anymore.
what do to ?
any other solutions to the volume bug ?
PS. Ive tried installing a fine-tune volume app and its kind of messed up - works almost but then it doesn't after all ...

You can override this without doing anything special in the Developer's Options
Ohhhh, the "disable absolute volume" option!
I will try it.
Thanks!!
