Guest worcester4x4 Posted November 11, 2010 Report Posted November 11, 2010 Googling around I don't think I'm the only one to experience this issue. The ring tone volume, even at max is way, way too quiet to be usable. I can hardly hear it in a quiet room, once it's in a pocket and in a normal non-silent environment it's inaudible. Has anyone heard of a fix for this?

Has anyone heard of a fix for this? yea its called buying a zte blade :rolleyes: only joking. i personally have no issues with ringtones only loud speaker is rubbish. somtimes the volume is really low after being on silent for some reason i have to keep pressing volume to increase it :S
Guest bigdish Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Volume level is poor and the loudspeaker can't handle high levels say when using Poweramp without distortion. Sat Nav voice in the car is barely audible. Have contacted HTC support but they were not very helpful. The speaker problem is my only gripe with this great phone. r Andrew
Guest Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 (edited) Guess there was no money to built in a proper speaker :rolleyes: I missed two calls while the phone was lying with speaker downside on my bed, somehow the linen seemed to filter the so low sound on max volume, that i couldn't even hear it 2 meters away. I even missed two mails this way even though the phone was lying right next to me... Gotta try this poweramp app and see if it is tweakable just a tiny little bit. I don't think HTC can and will change this, as they would have to built a completely new phone (kinda). Secretly I hope there's a problem with the phones so the battery might burn and they have to recall all phones and give the new ones a better speaker then, too :huh: but that's just a stupid dream :huh: Edited November 12, 2010 by Guest
Guest worcester4x4 Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 The speaker volume problem is a real shame, it's the one thing that lets the device down over the Galaxy S.
Guest worcester4x4 Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 I emailed HTC support with a complaint about the speaker volume. They replied telling me how to access the volume controls in settings! I've emailed them back to explain..... :rolleyes: I also emailed T-Mob support with the same question, I've yet to get an answer.
Guest mcnob Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Go to the sound settings, turn everything right down to zero and then back up again. This was a suggested fix from HTC directly and it seems to have worked for me.....strangely.

Guest worcester4x4 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Posted November 17, 2010 awesome!! it actually works :huh: thanks a lot!! :rolleyes: Made no difference here :huh:
Guest mohit1234 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Posted November 17, 2010 Made no difference here :rolleyes: hmmmm thts weird in mine i didnt get a massive increase in volume after doing this but, still much much better than b4 try rebooting and then doing this, it might work...
Guest worcester4x4 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Posted November 17, 2010 hmmmm thts weird in mine i didnt get a massive increase in volume after doing this but, still much much better than b4 try rebooting and then doing this, it might work... Just tried that as well. Turned all sound to off in Settings, rebooted and then turned back up. No difference.
Guest zen123 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Posted November 17, 2010 I returned mine because of the low volume issue, in my job I'm out about regularly & the phone normally resides in my trouser or jacket pocket & I probably missed 99% of all incoming calls bcoz I couldn't hear it rringing. Even the regular HTC desire I had before this was louder. Anyway I got myself a an Orange San Francisco as interim phone & no problems with the ringer, but I do miss the speed & large screen.
Guest ange335 Posted November 21, 2010 Report Posted November 21, 2010 Another idea... Is there an equalizer which one not only works @musicpralyers?? I mean an equalizer that works from booting android? I have nearly the same problem with my acer aspire 5553G (Notebook), i play arround at the equalizer and the sound realy get much better.... Well, DHD isn´t a notebook, but it is possible an equalizer get more out of it!

Thanks for the idea though. Edited November 21, 2010 by worcester4x4
