[Q] Sound level on headset is very low [Xperia T] - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Title says all, i am currently using the stock rom and the sound level on my headphones is terrible. When i was using cm 10 the sound level was almost double compared to the stock version. I tried changing the settings in the eq, didn't help anything. Tried different audio mods, didn't solve the problem either.
So someone please help this music junky out

Next time search some more...

I would say that pro Sound Control bases but with the stock kernel will not serve, perhaps DoomKernel?

There is definitely difference. Anything above these settings, makes sound broken at highest volume.

[Q] Sultan kernel issues

Hey all
I'm using the sultan kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39590429) and cm10 nightlies.
I'm having 2 issues with the kernel and I'm wondering whether they can be sorted:
1. Once in a while the notification drawer will freeze and when I reboot the phone it resets my homescreen and some of my settings, this also happens when I try change the gorvenor or go into kernel tuner
2. Horrible sound distortion, the phone's volume was louder as stock and wasn't distorted at all. Is there a fix for this?
thanks in advance
For #1 there isn't much you can do... we need android1-7 to figure it out...
And if you look at the name of the kernel you flashed... the zip anyway... you'll see call volume test... and that should answer your second question...

thanks for the reply, but you'll notice it's about in call volume, not out the loudspeaker, sorry should've been more clear, it's the loudspeaker that's distorted

Specifically which version of the kernel are you using ?
Your link dumps you on page 67 of an 83 page thread so I'm unsure which version of the kernel your using.
Beta 14 ? 13 ? one of the stable builds ?
I'm running beta 14, I've had the distorted speaker with all the versions

I noticed better sound quality on b13 from the loud speaker. b14 jacked up all volumes in an attempt to up the call volume... so... you can always go back to 13. Android 1-7 said he was going to work on it this weekend so you can also just wait...
It is beta after all...
Thank you, noe I'm a bit curious who/what is android 1-7

whatever is a flashable zip doesnt work! trust me!! you can either install noozy or eizo pro which are apks are universal and does not affect the kernel. Use those only.

From all the equalizers I have tried.
I really liked awesomebeats equalizer but sad we dont have it.
The best player I have seen better than google music is:
1.n7player ... love its interface.
2.poweramp
3.google music
Any good equalizer I can go with the n7player?

"- Where possible, arrange for the conversion of the songs (in background) below 256 kbps to 320kbps" lol thats the ugliest thing i've seen till now^^
If you really want to enhance audio quallity, buy good Headphones (no Beats or comparable) and use 10 Band EQ to tune the sound to what you like most.
Everything that's using Beats Audio is just messing up Audio Quality, its going to be far away from how it should sound, there are many reports in how beats audio works and how ugly it is, especially when using better Hifi-Headphones.
i flashed this and now sound quality is very good but volume is low ex. max vol on phone same as computer at 2/5 vol. normal? i think it were bit louder earlier. you feel same? Poweramp gain and direct sound made it better though.

thanks! I just flashed it and my music sounds a lot better, and indeed i dont have the noise anymore too.
I recommend you freezing it instead of uninstalling it straight.
To reinstall freezing is simpler too. Just defroze it and restart your phone.
However if you have uninstalled it you will need to reflash.

Make speakers louder

I've looked all over for a solution to make the speakers louder on 4.2.2 but no luck . When I got the phone it seamed loud but now I can't hear people when making calls in the car. I've tried beats off all different volumes and all the crap apps but still it's no louder than my note. I've read that HTC have lowered the volumes on 4.2.2 is there any way to get the volume back and make the speakers louder. Please don't respond by saying your phone is loud enough as mine isn't!!
Thanks
There is a zip to make it really loud again.

Sorry fella, I have the 4.2.2 update stock rom (UK unbranded) and the volume is so loud I cannot listen at full volume in a quiet room and have it max of 75% my age 49 so my hearing not as good as a teen obviously. I think your phone may well be faulty?

Both are correct. HTC has lowered the volume repeatedly in their upgraded firmwares. The man who said his is still loud is most likely still running old >1.26 FW.
Now, as of a way to raise these volumes im not quite sure how to do this through file editing (Maybe the zip in post #2 or #3 works, idk, if your in dire need, nandroid and flash it) BUT if youre up to flashing a kernel (assuming youre running 4.2.2 and are on sense) you can flash Tbaldens Performance Kernel (in Orig. Android Dev. section) and that will give you options to boost volumes on multiple fronts. I can confirm this works myself, as i use this feature actively and dont experience any crackling or popping. If you decide to download this kernel, youll need Trickstermod Kernel Control app from the Play Store to edit the values.
(Lol, seems like alot but i promise its not. Plus you get extra sweet features like USB Fastcharge, and Overclocking and all that jazz with the kernel. Its worth it)

Any app to boost audio (headset) ?

Hello im using the Xperia for quite a while and i tried alot of sound enhancements currently using Noozoxide to kinda boost headset audio but it's no where near the quality of iOS devices.. Any help would be appreciate it.. Btw my Xperia Z is locked boatloader so modding is kinda hard..
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
Have you triend PureXAudio and Viper4Android, If you know to use them well, you can get a lot of output from your headset.
Boost as in volume boost? (IMHO, the Z provides deafening levels of volume when maxed out).
Or boost as in quality boost? If so, I would recommend trying out Neutron player from the store. It enhances the quality quite a bit, making the Z a well detailed source.

Bose is not high end, but yeah, it seems you just want louder sound. Don't confuse louder with quality.
