Hi, is possible increase the volume of ringtones and notifications with the service menù?
Have you turned on the xLoud option under the normal settings option?
Settings -> Sound -> Sound Enhancements. Select the Settings tab at the top and turn on xLoud. Makes a big difference.

It's not going to be VERY loud due to the waterproofing of the phone.

If you have root you can try Viper4Android:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
It boosts volume as well as quality (you have to make a balance though or you could blow your speakers from too much of a boost)

Viper4Android doesn't actually boost the Max volume of the speakers. I've tested it with Xloud on and when i change things in Viper4Android there is absolutely no difference until you lower the volume. For example, putting the volume at 50% will be louder with Viper4Android then without.
Max all the equalizer settings then turn off Clear Audio and Dynamic Audio. Clarity will be lower but the volume will be higher.

Dear,
i had Samsung galaxy s5 , which has only 1 rear speaker , and the sound was much louder than this ! , if people have done boosting Tweaks with Root , then Sony Should Push an Update .
phone calls ringing Volume & Notifications , how come you have Stereo Speakers & when your phone rings , one speaker is working !!! that's really *****

Dear,
is there a way that i can boost the volume ( while Ringing , Notifications , playing videos & music ) ?
sound is clear but very low !! most of the phones even the one that has one speaker only have better sound in Terms of loudness .
hopefully Sony can push an update and get this fixed ( i said to get fixed because its a bug not an option )

Again, the speakers won't be very loud because of the waterproofing. Besides, there's a way to boost your audio by a little bit. Check out viper4android or the sound boost by olokos.

Try Viper4Android. It helped me boost the speaker a lot and it also improves quality. Try not using compatibility mode (it doesn't really work).

Thanks a lot , what about non-rooted devices?
Hey
I think that the speaker at the bottom of the z ultra is much too quiet during a phone call. It is hardly useable while driving car.
Is there a mod to get the speaker louder?tl
Thanks in advance.

Simply flash THIS stereo sound mod:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/themes-apps/true-real-stereo-sound-earpiece-t2822893
I advise you to go with the V10 update, best version.
Loudspeaker, ear piece and voice calls are far louder than stock, far better quality with almost no distortion.
Flash the above sound mod and get back to us.
I'm personally using the V10 stereo mod sound and it works wonders, highly recommended.

Thank you. I flashed the audio mod I showed you. Can I flash your mod over it or do I have to wipe Rom first?

No need to wipe your rom. Simply boot into recovery mode/CWM and flash the audio mod. Reboot phone and enjoy the sound and stereo speakers.
With this mod you get sound out the ear piece when using loudspeaker giving you stereo effect.
I too had very low volume, especially when making phone calls in a loud environment. Even using the volume to the maximum wasn't enough.
Using applications such as Skype/Talkray were even worse, volume too low.
After flashing the audio mod, my volume is now set to 6/10. Any louder and my ears ring, too loud!
Flash the given sound mod. Try some music, videos and phone calls upon completion. I'm sure you'll be more than satisfied.
Thank dontbelieve for his hard work. It was him who took the time and effort in making this mod. Support and updates were frequent.

Play a video or music and see if sound comes from both top and bottom speaker.
Yes it is wooow cool.
I looked at the mixer_path.xml the rx?digital volume is everything on 84. Rx7 is for the speaker right? I changed it to 94. Is this option for watching video/music and voice call? Which volume is for headphones?

I have tried V1 all the way to v14 and the BEST one was V10.
Sound was louder, clearer and less distortion.
Most other updates had boomy sound, too much bass and not as loud as V10.

You will notice right away far louder sound and you should get stereo sound. Voice calls and internet calls are far louder.

Correct. I have my Rx7 volume to 94, perfect for me.
Volume for headphones will be under 'headphone voice cfg' setting. Mine is set to 94.. You will find the option further down the speaker cfg. Also change the 'headphones' value to 90 or 94. 'Voice speaker' is set to 105 for loud and clear call volume.
Lastly, 'headphones' is set to 94.
Once changing the above values, make sure you save and reboot for the desired effect to take place.

Awesome. Love it with my razer kraken pro headset. The bass bangs my ears
I am using the Eragon rom. It's a great rom with good battery life however the sound when the ringtones sound sound very tinny and horrible. I tried the official rom and the same thing. Eragon has apparently got a beats mod to improve this but I see no improvement. Is there any tips for this.?
Go to settings --> Sound & notification --> Sound enhancement --> Disable everything
Go to Dolby Atmos --> disable it
Go to Viper4Android --> Phone Speaker --> enable Master Power --> enable Speaker Optimization
Everyone likes a different sound. In my opinion this seems to be a neutral sound with slight improvement through Viper4Android.
You could also test Dolby Atmos --> enable Music --> choose Intelligent Equalizer Rich
Or you could just adjust the equalizer in Viper4Android.
In conclusion the speaker is just a cheap mono speaker and you won't get the perfect sound out of it. This cannot be fixed via software.
Or maybe your speaker has a malfunction and you should let elephone repair it.
thanks for the reply, just today the sound seems ok. it seemed to do this last time i done a full wipe, needs 5 days to settle down. i have done your suggestions anyway and see if there is further improvement. it is the bass that the speaker is badly missing but i dont think that youll get it from a phone speaker.

This is a simple modification to the MTK Settings
It's tested in the following roms: (might work on 6.0 but not sure)
- Stock Rom
- Eragon V1
What it does, it enhances the headphone's sound to its full potential
All you have to do is:
1: Enable Debug Options (settings, about phone, press build version several times, go back to settings and there should be a new option there, open it and close settings).
2: Download MTK Engineering Mode from playstore.
3: After Installing it, Open it and select MTK Settings.
4: Go on Hardware Testing - Audio - Volume - Audio Playback.
5: On 3/4-pole Headset set the Headset PGA to 160 and save.
6: Test and see the differences ?
It's a really simple modification, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask ?
hi, I did that but volume is still too low for me (I'm hard on hearing).
do you know which file contains those values, I would like to set it higher than 160 (I'm rooted)?

you cant set to higher than that, and even if it could it would just degrade the speakers even more, causing to either malfunction or lose eveb more volume to a point of no returb... This is a modification to the earphones only, you can mess with the speakers and put on the max that the app allows, but thats it, anything above the limits will degrade the speakers.

thank you for your response!
sorry if I didn't make it clear; I was talking about earphones, not phone speaker. I want louder sound on my earphones!
I edited some volume file in vendor\etc folder, made headset PGA value to 250, but it didn't do anything...

The 160 is the max volume.
So, if instead of applying for 3/4 pole Headset I apply it for Speaker label it will improve the sound on my Elephone speaker?

it might enhance, but the sound quality is already bad.. enhancing it even more will mostlikelly cause even more distortion
I have searched through here for hours now... I'm trying to figure out how to boost the volume on my Google pixel 6. Does anyone know how to make the volume louder coming out of the speaker?
I use the Wavelet app to increase volume, makes a huge difference. I turn on Legacy Mode, Graphic Equalizer & Limiter.
In Graphic Equalizer, use Personal Preset & turn up everything.
In Limiter, zero everything (threshold can be -2) & increase Post-gain to max.

I tried out wavelet as an experiment with my pixel 6 unrooted, and the limiter regardless of the post gain settings causes too much distortion for my ears. Root your phone and install Viper, then you can gain it to max, with zero distortion.
isnt there volume boost in accessibility?
