I´ve tried the stereo speaker test in Service menu today and i´m a bit confused - on screen, left speaker is shown while testing but sound comes of right speaker, then right speaker is shown but sound comes out of left speaker...is that normal or is there something wrong?

Which way up are you holding the tablet? For example, where is the USB socket?

[Q] App for audio level/balance?

Is there an app to control the volume L/R ? I'd like to use it to get the sound coming only from left speaker (headset).

which rom are using ,definately seems to be a problem with your headset as it has nothing to do with left/right speakers.
Hey, it's not a problem. I want to do that myself. I suffer from tinnitus and it's only on my other ear, so I'd like to balance the volume so the sound will only come from the right speaker.

SO...in tha specific case you need MONO headphones.
I think if you try to output double power from one of the audio channels you'll have audio distortion...
Thanks I'll look into it then
oh sorry i didnt read properly ur query i thought u r getting sound from just 1 side

headphone jack = no sound

I changed my broken LCD screen and everything works great except for the head phone jacks. The streak recognizes the headphones and the headphone notification shows up in the notification bar when i plug it in but no sound come through. I verified that all ribbons were re connected correctly and I even re flashed 1.9.0. and still nothing. Any ideas? Does anyone know which ribbon might give sound to the head phone jack?

Possible to disable the top speaker? Or an app to control left/right speaker volume?

So I've been playing around with the phone for a few days and come to one conclusion.
The phone speakers are not great. Average at best.
More specifically, the top phone speaker is so terrible it is drowning out the decent quality sound of the bottom speaker.
I'd much rather just use the bottom speaker and forget about the top altogether.
Does anyone know of a way to either disable the top speaker for media sounds, or an app that lets you independently control the left/right speaker volumes so I can just turn the dam thing off?
The bottom speaker is very decent and the distortion from the top speaker when playing at louder volumes is very annoyingly bad !!
Disable stereo+ function under sound settings
I already did this, and my problem was not solved

volume not working with S21 headphone

The Samsung Galaxy S21 got rid of the phone jack from previous models and now has only a USB-C connection. I bought a USB-C-to-phonejack converter so I could use the headphones I had from my S7 phone. It works when I am using the headphones to listen to music or watch videos. By "works" I mean not only do I hear sound through them, but I can control the volume either using the phones controls or the built-in controls on the headphones. EXCEPT! Except when on a phone call. When I use the headphones when using the phone, the volume control does nothing. Neither the controls on the phone itself, or the controls on the headphones. I end up deafened because the volume is at max and can't be turned down. Again, this is only while speaking on the phone; other apps let me use the volume controls.
Any ideas on ways to fix this?
Thank you,
S.

I can't guarantee that this will work. But often what seems obvious to me is something other people miss completely. (And the other way around too.)
When you press the volume down or up rocker on the phone, have you noticed the three horizontal dots at the top of the onscreen volume indicator? If you tap on that 3-dot menu, multiple vertical volume indicators appear. I haven't tested with a USB-C audio jack dongle but I am betting that if you have the dongle plugged in (regardless of whether the earphones are plugged into the dongle), one of those vertical volume sliders will be specifically for the dongle/USB-C output.
Give this a try and let us know if this works. If it does, I realize this might be annoying to do every time. But maybe then you can find a utility in the Play store that allows you to set individual volume levels.
Good luck.
P.S. I fully understand if you prefer the wired earphones. But I can tell you that when I use bluetooth earphones of various kinds, simply pressing the volume rocker does reduce/increase phone call volume.

Thank you. I never really noticed those dots in the volume control; just ignored them all this time! I pressed them and see the extra options. I haven't tried the USB-C dongle yet... I just packed it away for a trip this week. I'll keep it in mind though and try it as soon as I unpack.
