Hey Guys!
Is there a possibility to change the range for the volume?
So that I can make sound louder/quiter than it would be possible normally.
My IncS IS rooted, so I have permissions to change something!
There are a few apps for it in PlayStore, just search "volume"
I tried a bunch of them, all crap, except dspmanager found around here somewhere. I got a slight increase of the volume and bass and ****, but sadly nowhere near what I wanted.
Strange that it is so hard to tweak this feature on this phone, on my Sensation dsp nearly blasted my eardrums and the siyahkernel works miracle on my galaxy s3 gt-i9300 ...

Thx for the answers!
I know DSPManager and all the other apps already...
DSPManager is the best of them, in sound increasing and eq, bass, ..., but its effect isn't really big, when you want to increase volume very much, like Huppen said...
Would it be possible (and more or less easy ), to look in the CyanogenMod repo after DSPManager source and write a own small app? App developing itself isn't that hard and the only 'big' thing is the increasing/decreasing of sound over/under the limits...

Quick question...
As the title suggests, my device's lowest volume setting is still too loud if I want to listen to something in the background or want to take a snooze. Is there a way to either add more volume levels or lower the value of the levels? I'm running JPK and it's rooted.
Cheers.
download and install this

it should work with the BETA froyo
Thanks, but I already have Sound Manager installed, which does the same thing as Audio Manager, but has a cleaner interface and more control options. The problem is that neither of them do what I want... the lowest volume is still too loud.
I need to somehow adjust the increment value in code or add more increments to give me finer control.
Did you ever receive an answer on your volume issue. I have a galaxy 4G with the same issue and no one has answers?
Use voodoo control app from market, it adjust the analog amplifier.

Yes voodoo would be the best for you its just amazing....install it and you will love it....it makes your phone to the best mp3-player you can buy for money
Yep, use a kernel with voodoo sound. Or buy Supercurio's app in the market and support his work. The app gives you the option to adjust the analog gain, if the volume is too loud all you have to do is lower the gain and problem solved

Mp3's have terrible sound, you should consider ripping/downloading your music in .flac .
Hello everybody,
I just want to know which setting you prefer?
For me Clear Audio sounds pretty good, but what are your opinions?
my headphones (sennheiser cx 400 ii precision) pushes high freqs very strong. So it hurts my ears when using clear audio+
it sounds very well, but is way too loud. I have to use eq instead. sounds well, too! but it is much more quiet...
hope, some cool dev will fix that, so that we will be to use eq in comb. with clear audio:highfive:
For now im sticking with ClearAudio+ as its probably the best auto equalizer ive ever used
It depends on what you listen with and what you listen to.
For more 'modern' music on less high-end headphones ClearAudio+ is probably pretty nice. It widens the stereo and gives both lows and highs some extra push.
However, if you listen to jazzier or classical music and with higher-end equipment things get out of hand pretty quickly with ClearAudio+ (or with any strong equalizer).
VPT Surround on the Studio setting is pretty nice though, I like using that one.
I must be the only one who thinks clear audio isn't that great, its louder than the EQ but it is not very good for bass imo.
I use the eqaulizer with first scale on -10, second scale on -3, third scale on +3 , forth scale on +10 and fifth scale on -10, clear bass on +10 and studio setting on, Thats how I get the best sound for bass which is what I prefer in all my songs.

It's not that great for boosting lows, but it does a great job of leveling the whole spectrum with enchancements, dynamic range compression and virtual surround. I'm not saying it's great and amazing - but as far as auto-equalizers go, this is by far the best one.
But if you have specific needs - like stong low boost - then as R89 said, it might not be the best choice for you.
I prefer Equalizer settings it suonds good on my headphones
plus you can also find many eq settings on xda
I listen to predominantly rock, heavy metal, punk, grunge and the sort for which Clearaudio (as much as I do like it for listening to things like Lana Del Ray) is far to overboard to even try to listen for any length of time without some serious ear bleeding.
That said, I'd take it over HTC's BEATs junk anyday.
What is your opinion on using clearaudio+ for techno music ?? Does it "kill" high frequency sound ? or just lowers it?
Morning all,
probably not an issue with most people, but often I want to watch some videos, or the highlights in the gallery and I find that the lowest volume is at too high a level.
Is there anyway of overall reducing the system output level without root and/or custom rom? Would appreciate any thoughts to help out
Thanks
Jonny
Turning off beats reduces the volume.
try downloading the equalizer app or any setting app that has the capability of adjusting the volume.
Agreed, the lowest volume is too loud. Will try some EQ apps, Btw is there a toggle for beats audio?
Yes, the toggle is in the top level in the settings, as in not in a sub menu. I did try to disable beats but to my ears it didn't make any difference, or at least not enough.
I thought that equalisers were tied to a particular player app, rather than system wide, but will see if I can find any.

I wasn't talking about the equalizer option of any music player What I mean was the app "Equalizer" from google play
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartandroidapps.equalizer
I just spent hours creating new playlists and transferred all music to Z1. I want to squeeze out best possible sound quality. Please share your EQ setting. I just started playing around with it and haven't found the right setting yet.
EQ Settings highly depend on the speakers/ headphones you use, because every setup is balanced differently.
Just play around with it, as far as audio goes there is no right or wrong, as long as you like the sound!
Hi, I'm an audiophile bro. I suggest you to just leave the eq off. Artists have spent so much time in the studio to create the perfect sound that they want you to hear.
It depends on your taste and music genre, I mostly listen to electronic dance music and setting the bass on 6+ makes that kind of music much better imo.
I'm using Poweramp pro but remember to turn off all the Walkman sound effects first as they sort of compile on top of each other making poweramp harder to setup
and leaving everything to default settings is fine if you are in a studio and using their sound equipment - the EQ setting can compensate for a poor set of earphones or if on a hifi system can alter setting to suit equipment and the room accustics - none of us will have a studio soundstage

ClearAudio+ and Dynamic normalize is the best for me.

After I played around, I ended up with just Clear Bass +10 and VPT to Studio. I'm using Sony XBA-4. My music sound excellent!! I'm super happy with sound quality I get from Z1:good:
- From left to right: +2, -3, -6, 0, +4
- Bass at 10.

Best EQ setting
Hi Sitti,
Squeezing out the best possible sound quality depends on the headphone you are using. If you have got a normal headphone, you need to play around with the EQ to get the best possible sound output. And, if you are using audiophile gear, you may not need to do any settings at all!
I will give you an example :-
I own a Sony Xperia M Dual. The default headphones which comes along with it are quite decent enough, with a dominant bass line. I am kind of an audiophile, I don't like too much bass. So, I have tweaked the EQ settings in the following way to get the best possible sound out of it :
Clear Bass Level : +7
Equalizer (left to right) - -3 +3 +4 -3 +2
Surround Sound - Studio
Clear Stereo - Off
Dynamic Normaliser - On
And, that's all! Trust me, you will love your music. Let me know.

That should definitely squeeze out the best possible sound!
Hi,
Please note that EQ settings are heavily dependent on the headphones you are using. Following EQ settings are according to my audio gear that I use. Believe me, they sound amazing! A bit closer to true audiophile gears!
My device : Sony Xperia M Dual
Headphone : Sony MH410C
EQ settings :
Clear Bass level : +10
Equalizer (left to right) : -4, +4, +4, -3, +3.
Settings :
Surround Sound : Studio
Clear Stereo : Off
Dynamic Normalizer : On
Happy Listening!
Another best EQ setting
Phone : Sony Xperia M Dual
Headphone : Sony MDR E818
Equaliser settings :
Clear Bass : +10
EQ (left to right) : 0 +2 +3 -3 +3
Settings :
Surround : Studio
Clear Stereo : Off
Dynamic Normaliser : On
Enjoy your music!
Well if you REALLY want to get the best possible sound out it I suggest getting the AC!D Sound Engine MOD.
Makes everything sound nice and clear with awesome bass. I have it on my Z1s and couldn't be more happy.

Works Nicely Volume is louder and my bass has more punch, along with the clear audio its just perfect!
If this helps Go ahead and and give me my first Thanks
I use Denon ah-d600 and I listen to metal.. Without any bass...to get enough I put the tru bass to 4.. And when I listen to music with bass in it I turn it down to zero...
Good headphones does not need eq... The equalizer destroys the sound to my ears

Thanks for the response.
If you feel male vocals lack warmth and depth, just increase the 400Hz from (-3) to 0., but not more than that, as it will introduce unnecessary hum.
If you feel too much bass, just decrease the Clear Bass level accordingly.
That should do it.

Hey mates .
Here's the thing, i want to remove that Loud Volume Headset Warning that makes volume pretty Low.
For now all i found to really increase volume is this:
Sound Boost.apk Freeware : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.cacheux.soundboost "Just activate the apk before you plug-in your earphone/headphone".
This for sure will increase volume, but i wanted to know if the 'quality' of this increased sound is the same quality as if the volume limiter was really removed, because i think this app switches the Music channel to Voice Channel in order to gain volume.
So i wanted to ask someone to do something like this: whoever of you that already did somehow removed the limit volume warning by Xposed Framework or tools like that one, to try installing this SoundBoost apk and tell me if the quality and volume is the same as if we had removed the warning by Xposed or other tools.
Thanks for your attention mates, have a good day :good:
