[Q] How can I increase the headphones volume ? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys ,
I noticed some thing about my sony xperia Z2 is that the headphones sound in it is very low , if I use AUX on my car using this phone , sound comes really low compared to my old HTC phone (I know HTC has beats support which increases overall volume) but still , LG G3 for example is higher , Iphone is higher and other phones support higher volume sound .
What I also noticed is that even on my old HTC , when I install custom roms that are not Sense roms the sound is lower , a lot lower .
So I was wondering maybe there is a mod or tweak for my device that makes sound a lot higher when using AUX ?

Yeah, same prob here. Anyone?

having the same problem, tried using the z2 for music at work through aux lead into a makita stereo. Even with the stereo & phone turn't up at its loudest, My old iphone will be as loud if not louder at half the volume. have resorted to using my iphone 3gs for listening to podcasts. I hate iphone been with andriod since.. The phone is brilliant but as a personal music player aux or headphone it total sucks..

I doubt you would be able to do anything without root as you need to modify some system files. Maybe theres app that can increase the volume but I don't know.

Is Xloud even a good idea on the X10?

Alright, fairly new X10 user here, but I have an important question:
Should we be really installing the xloud enhancement on our phones?
The Bravia enhancement, for example, is a purely software solution - a localized contrast/color enhancement to make pictures and videos look better.
Xloud, on the other hand, increases power output to the external speakers, a hardware effect that can have very strong negative effects - ie. blown out external speakers in short order. It's also meant for a phone with different hardware specifications, the Arc.
We should w8 untill a dev take a look into it and solve Its issues then it will worth it.

As the OP correctly pointed out, it's not something a developer can "solve".
There is no issue with xLoud itself, it's just not for the X10.
I tried it, it works but the sound output is awful and I can almost feel my speakers scream "STOP THIS!!!!"
Maybe it could be altered but I doubt it's worth it and I wouldn't use it for prolonged period anyway.
It's another thing to mess with software and another thing to mess with hardware.
has everyone forgotten cant dsp manager? its a much safer and controlled way to increase volume...

Thanks for your valuable info.. I will try DSP manager
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Blow the speaker !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey man....the xloud is not that POWER........plus....the x10 speaker is so small and strong......

x Loud kills the x10's speaker.
It is without a doubt that x10 does in fact kilsl the speaker on your phone. The xLoud was not intended for the x10 and shouldn't be used in my opinion. I have confirmed with several people in regards to this matter and all of which agree that xloud will damage your x10's speaker.
In my opinion, you don't need this feature. And like most post here, "USE AT YOUR OWN RISK." I learned my lesson having my speaker blown.
To: Developer
Thank you very much for your contributions to the x10 community.
Where do you get DSP manager?
i think dsp manager is a better idea than xloud... quality vs quantity.

T.E.A.M ROM already has DSP manager pre-installed , WOLF V7 test update also has it to.
Btw, I love using xLoud because it enhances headset speakers during calls.I always have trouble with the in-call volume from the start.
No [10 chars]
Xloud is useless on the x10's internal speaker.
It's just not capable of playing low frequencies.

[Q] Earphones

Anyone know of a good set of earphones that will also control the media player? I want to be able to click a button on the mike to pause the music and pick up a call. Then, when the call is over, have the music resume again. I had this on my blackberry, but haven't found it on android yet.

That's nice! but i don't really favour the thing you put in your ear...
I think only SE can provide you with the features for our phones as i plugged in Apple earphones with the volume control once and it kept stopping the song.

Just bought one, here it costs 62$, but just found one crappy disclaimer from SE site "The products X10, X10 mini, X10 mini pro, X8 will operate call handling (take/reject calls) music handling (play/pause). Please note; volume and LiveKey™ not supported for those products."
Could use a dev opinion, if it isn't the same **** as X10 doesn't support dual touch Because I'm pretty sure that 3.5mm ports aren't specially modified to support simple buttons?
I use MW 600,hi-fi headset. It is bluetooth. Comes in reasonable price. My Friends using nokia, samsung, etc.... Ordered MW600 after seeing its performance!

Ray Headphone Port/Sound Drivers

I got my brand new ray yesterday and ive got Rayonium v7 final flashed... love the phone and rom.
Ive noticed though that the 3.5mm output to headphones/speakers is really quite weak - pretty much HALF that of my last phone (nokia 5800.. 3 years strong )
Ive tweaked both the dspmanager settings and the sound enhancements as much as i can and although i get a slightly better sound the actual volume is still quite weak...
Is this the headphone port, the actual headphones or the rom?
and is there a mod/app/fix/tweak to make it louder without distorting the sound?
Sony make excellent audio visual equipment - all my tvs and stereos are sony but so far it seems a bit crap if this is what the mobile phones provide
Any help would be greatly appreciated
iam using poweramp + music volume eq.
Looks not so bad and bass awesome too. For sure not cowon, but can listen.
Right well i just tried poweramp free trial and the sound is definitely louder BUT i dont want to change player... is there not a mod or something i can do to make the standard player on rayonium louder?
170 views and 1 reply? surely someone else has some input?
change rom or wait for the updated version, dsp not working on the current rayonium.
im using rayonium+n7player (fully unlocked) = music heaven!

[Q] [XPERIA U] Speaker volume is way too low ...

Dear Xperia U users ... did you find your speaker volume is very low ???? It barely noticable in crowd. The demo XPERIA U demo video said it has Crisp and Loud Sound. But mine is the other way around.
And XLoud feature just make the sound worse. It didn't loud at all (OK it made it louder, but the sound is terrible, like there's crackling sound). Even my previous Nexus S still louder than this.
I really sad

If you need a louder speaker for music, you could try Poweramp player. It has an equaliser preset for the phone speaker which makes it a lot louder!
Maybe it helps!

I listen to my music with earphone, so music player is not really a concern. It's the ringtone volume
Same problem here, ringtones volume is too low. I hope in a dev who solves the problem.
Im getting tired of all sony bull****.

i gifted xperia u to my sister and its first impression disappointed me..
it f***ing has the same crackling problem, i trashed sony mobiles people hard for this on facebook and everywhere possible...
i talked to sony customer service on this, the rep himself said i am also using the same phone i can understand your situation lol !! can u believe it?!
i asked if i can get a call back from sony for telling that yes they'll improve the speaker volume or not? via futher software updates as that's what's left a chance genuinely, though he said he cannot commint but will mention the same ..
i got a call yesterday even from senior manager of sony, he said to get your phone once updated from a service centre they have a different firmware, i said i even updated it n even repaired it.. he said no they still have a different firmware by which the volume will get high but he didn't commited for the crackling problem then though he said it should also get fine.....
i havn't given my phone as i don't beleive it..... i want to keep it clean and just in 5 days i give it in a service centre no way... so i am counting on its future updates that it gets fine then....
i totally accept xloud makes its sound alot worse like a china phone playing music loud.... i would have understood if it was really loud but in the end its not even loud then why stuttering or crackling?! bullsh*t man !!
I compare it's sound with Xperia P by playing the stock mp3, the P clearly louder than U (and Sola too, it's just as low as U).
Maybe XU is just another failed / defective Sony crap just like X10 Mini Pro / Zylo ...
I managed to live with 4GB storage ... but this is just ... FUUUUUU Sony !!!!!!!!
Maybe the reason is because they still used SE logo instead of SONY on the back cover ...

My God you are so *****in right man, even in its earphone accessory in box, on its tag its written sony ericsson!! wtfffff?!?!
its accessories all has sony ericsson written on it and somewhere its logo like on the back of xperia u, xperia s, xperia p, etc . This means what i believe is sony is first helping sony ericsson to sell of its already created models just adding sony written with few features of sony in it mayb..... as its sony now . Then real sony models totally being sony will start selling off . I may not be totally correct but i am not wrong on many points aswell !
All this hate ??? I can live with that volume happily atleast it has a dualcore processor and a good collection of stock roms... well if you're really looking for a high volume phone then buy a china mobile... to be honest you can't hear anything when you'll be in crowd even if you have xperia x8 right? so be thankful what you have.

earpiece stereo mod REQUEST

Hello fellow owners of this phone, a feature that I really miss from my old phones is the stereo sound.
Is there any good modder that would be able to make that possible? I would be super greatfull for that.
