pretty sure he's referring to the app "louder volume hack" by meltus. just search for meltus on the market. or there is a maual version, check out androidaudiohacks.com . no idea if either works

I'd rather use the manual method because I don't want to pay for something that simple

ive read there is a code that can be punched into the dialer to bring up the settings
the version i found just shuts down the dialer
maybe its the wrong code for our devices

The only thing I wish I could increase the volume of is the external speaker. Meltus' app doesn't appear to do that.

yeah, i meant for the external speaker like when watching to a video or last.fm.
i guess i didnt specify.

go into Settings -- > Call settings and choose hearing-aids. it increases the call volume so you can actually hear the other person quite well.
i miss my Tilt2's external speaker...perfection.

I'm running CM6.0/FroYo and that isn't an available option.

Copied from another thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15406689
"I am surprised at the lack of information and help on the net for this issue. The in-call volume, and the speakerphone, are very quiet. Forget the radio and driving with the windows down, a moderate breeze is enough... I press the phone hard against my ear and still don't catch everything.
I've used CM's DSP manager to boost the speaker signal, and this isn't enough.
Even with full volume & the DSP boost, there is very little crackle. It's as if the speaker is barely utilized.
I haven't met anyone else with an Aria, but every other Android phone I've seen works perfectly fine as, you know, a phone."
There must be a way to overdrive the speaker, right?

Want Nexus TV Off Screen Animation? Here!

Open Market and type in Screen Off and Lock, download it and set it up as old tv style lock, but the problem is that if you press the power button, the phone will close normally, you have to press the screen off and lock button to make it show the off animation. Is it possible if it could be implemented for the power button on the epic?
Thanks

I just downloaded it. Its pretty cool. Like you said it would be alot better if it would work by hitting the power button.

Yeah, I wonder if someone could make it work with the power button

Could this be done with Tasker?

I don't think there is anything for the power button in the SDK.

Haha I know this is different software entirely but I think its funny how you were just saying this was impossible in another thread... lol there is always a way in software. :-D
cd's or tapes?

The difference is that this has nothing to do with modifying the framework for the screen on/off animation but rather mapping an app to work with the power button.

Do you think it's possible?? Because I would love to see this working with the power button! (and also making the animation a little bit faster)
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Well, there isn't anything in the sdk that allows for mapping the power button, at least to my knowledge, but perhaps a dev with a bit more knowledge on the subject would care to chime in on it.

Except the little detail where apps can't be mapped to the power button.

just use the remap long press search button option....how often do people really use google voice actions? you can just make a shortcut on the desktop for voice actions.

I can't even find this app on th market anymore ?

Thanks for sharing. This is pretty sweet! If only it could be mapped to the power button.
But it works great as a launcher pro gesture action

[Q] Screenshots with Shoot Me is just giving me an LG logo?!

What Android version is ur SE?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App

its a tweak by LG.

Same trick as on the Galaxy Tab, i think

Anyway, strange that they have blocked the opportunity to use other software to take screenshots. Shoot Me could also record screen.

Likely it has to do with the fact that it's a Tegra chip.

but why?
i dont get it

My theory would have to be because ShootMe grabs the data from the framebuffer, the Tegra chip doesn't use the framebuffer for it's display, so the reason why it's getting the LG image is because it was the last piece of data that was put in the framebuffer before the tegra display driver was initialized.

Thanks. Useful tip for me!

Hi boys! I have same problem with my Optimus 2x... what alternative programs can i use?

Hold down the power button then press the home button. That takes a screenshot..
No need for a third party program

How about video recording? Maybe somethi to capture hdmi exit?

Same problem with VNC applications. Shows the LG logo and a progress bar.

[Q] using headphone volume control buttons?

Is it possible to use for example, Bose IE2 headphones, inline volume controls and/or middle button? A lot of headphones come standard with the 3 button controls on them. I find it hard to imagine that Amazon overlooked this potential feature or that it would be impossible for it to be modified to work in some way. Looking forward to feedback.

bbanghyung,
If the volume control is Passive and does not send volume control commands back to
the Kindle it will work. If it is an Active volume control and expects to communicate
to the Kindle, no go, it will not work. Either way, it does not hurt the Kindle to try.
The Kindle is even missing a MIC Input with the jack which is a real pet peeve of mine.
I can not believe they have made a Tablet without MIC input - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. So,
the certainly would not do an active interface on the Kindle. Bummer, I know.

Just got it to work in one app. It appeared a little buggy though. That's unfortunate about support for the Mic. I can't understand that. Thanks as usual!

bbanghyung,
Do you remember which application worked with the Bose Headphones? I found an application on Google Play
named Headset Icon by Dev.Android - the application appears to work with the Bose Headsets, maybe this is
your solution? Here is a link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devandroid.headseticon&hl=en

I believe it was maple mp3. Thanks for the suggestion ill check it out.

Has anyone successfully managed to use earphones to skip to next track?

I have now tried a couple of different earphones and also a couple of earphone button apps, but I still can't skip tracks with the mic button double tap - the phone instead re-dials the last used phone number.. I am beginning to think it may be a fatal flaw in the phone.
Any help here would be appreciated.
Thanks

I got a set of urbeats bundled with the phone. They allow the skip track and other features perfectly.

With mine, I got a similar set but it was not branded as urbeats.
Did yours have more than 1 button, ie. A dedicated skip track button, or do you have to double tap the singular mic button like me?
Are you using the default music player?
Thanks
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2

Here is a pic of the controls. Works on the default player.
Can test a few more players if you like.

Thank you very much for your help. I now know what I need to at last get the track change stuff working.

Where did you purchase these if you don't mind my asking? I've never seen beats that say they're specifically for HTC phones..

I got them free from Phones4u.

I also have the urbeats headphones and the next and previous tracks buttons work perfectly on both the stock player and the Google music player. On the pocketcasts app they skip forward or backward 20 seconds. In short these headphones seem to work perfectly with the HTC One and have great sound quality too. I also got them free from phones4u.

The urbeats headphones were only given to the first 500 people who preordered the phone. I'm sure the op is talking about the headphones that come bundled with the phone itself. The headphones that come in the box don't allow track skipping, only play, pause & accept calls

If the remote is built into the headphones it should work yes? I have the earpod from apple will they work? (or other apple headphones with remote built in)
Also have a white pair of in ear beats with remote
Will these work to change the songs??

I have tried one time a Iphone 4 headphone on a HTC Device and it works perfectly. The only issue is the volume up & down doesn't work. But play, pause, next, previous track, mic all work flawlessly.
