An increase in volume on android multimedia. How to increase sound volume on android: application rating and manual adjustment technique

Many users of smartphones on the Android operating system often arises a problem with sound. The mining of the models have too a quiet call, which is difficult to distinguish between the noisy street or in transport or in the headphones is poorly audible music. There are all sorts of manipulations to strengthen the sound on Android, first independently, then with the help of friends and forums about modern gadgets.

But even after that, there are those who did not solve the problem and everything is also dissatisfied with the sound of their phone. This article is designed for you.

It will help to strengthen the sound on the Android program VOLUME + is an interesting program to increase the volume of the sound of your phone on Android. It is presented in Google Play. Universal joy app is free.

After downloading and installing the VOLUME + run it. Before you menu in English. You need to select the "Speaker Settings" item. At the same time you fall in the menu. Here you need to mark the Speaker Modifications points and Virtual Room Effect (Virtual Room Effect).

Then, alternately click on the items "Volume Level", "Bass Enhance", "Virtual Room", where all levels increase by one. Do not install at once +4. In this case, malfunctions are possible, glitches, from which then you can get rid of the program only to remove the battery. It is better to gradually pick up the optimal volume.

There is also another option to increase the volume of the sound? Equalizer will help here. To do this, go to GooglePlay Market and download the favorite equalizer. For example, Jetaudio.

In fact, Jetaudio is a multifunctional program. There is a player of various formats, and a ripper, and a converter. Among other things there is a good equalizer.

To increase the volume of sound sound, games, video and music you need to run the program. Open equalizer. The default is Normal mode. You must open the "Custom" tab and increase the desired speakers at your request. Try to lose any music. You will hear a noticeable difference.

Important: no need to touch the column of 60 Hz!

It is also necessary to remember that the sound quality will deteriorate with increasing sound volume. Wilds are possible. If you put on too big values, you can even burn the speaker, so be careful! Also in the video told how you can do without programs and do it through the engineering menu.

Probably, many smartphone owners faced the volume of volume. For example, I was not satisfied with two things. The first is the quiet sound of the speaker with an incoming call, and the second is a very loud sound in the headphones at the input call.

A little about how Android is listed

If no headset is connected to your gadget (headphones, free hands, etc.), then the volume settings will be alone, and as soon as you connect the headset - the settings will become different. For a general understanding, I will tell you several examples.

Example 1. You listen to music on the phone, turned on a loud speaker at full power, and when you connect the headset to it and turn on the loud speaker again, then the volume may differ (can be louder or lower, depending on which model is the phone or firmware version).

Example 2. You are watching the headphones in the headphone volume (meaning the volume of the multimedia) put up by 40% and then after a while you have an incoming call, then the volume in the headphones will change on the overall volume, in which case you can get a powerful sound blow on the ears. Believe me, I have repeatedly undermined from the sofa in such cases, the fact is that the programmers well configured the volume modes.

Example 3. You are talking on the phone and you need to go into speaker mode, and you notice that the speaker is not so loud (or vice versa), as when listening to music; Or the partner has become bad to hear you, this is because in different modes the microphone may have different sensitivity. Also, when the headset is connected in the same situation and turn on the speakerphone mode - again other settings. This is how Android is driven by volume.

Know the theory of engineering menu

So let's look at what and how can be done if you have a little piercing over the "engineering menu".

Before you make some changes, we recommend fully reading the article, and comprehend, and then experiment. Also take a piece of paper and write down all the values \u200b\u200bthat stood by default, in case something goes wrong. You can run the engineering menu using the phone set: we prescribe the following combinations on it (Fig. 1):

Congratulations, you got to the engineering menu (Fig. 2). Keep in mind that menu on different phones can differ slightly in structure. We find the section "Audio" and go to it. After entering, we see a bunch of unknown strings (modes) (Fig. 3). Here, what do these modes mean Android:

figure 2 Figure 3

— Normal Mode. (Settings section in normal or normal mode) - such an active mode when nothing is connected to the smartphone;

— Headset Mode. (headset mode) - this mode is activated after connecting headphones or external columns;

— Loudspeaker Mode. (loud mode) - it is activated when nothing is connected to smart, and you turn on a loud connection while talking on the phone;

— Headset_loudspeaker Mode. (the loudspeaker mode when the headset is connected) - this mode is activated when you connect headphones or external speakers to smart, and you turn on a loud connection while talking by phone;

— Speech Enhancement (Talk mode by phone) - this mode is activated in normal mode of talking by phone, and it is not connected to it (headset, external speakers) and the speakerphone is not enabled.

In the last three sections, it is better not to poke the nose:

— Debug info - It is not clear for what - info on the backup of information or its debugging;

— Speech Logger. - I did not understand the end, most likely, logging during negotiations or the record of chatter. If you put a tick on the "Enable Speech Log", then after the phone call is completed in the root directory of the memory card, appropriate files are created. Their name and structure gets the following form: wed_jun_2014__07_02_23.vm (Wednesday_2014__Time07_02_23.vm).

Why serve these files and how they can come in handy - incomprehensible. The / sdcard / voip_debuginfo directory (which is the storage location with information on the backup) - it is not automatically created if you create it manually, then after the conversation it will remain empty.

— Audio Logger. - Not bad software for recording sound, which supports quick search, play and save it.

If you approach these modes with the mind, you can adjust the volume of Android smartphones or tablets as you want yourself. When entering any of the modes, various volume settings (Type) will be available. Here is a list of basic settings that you need to know (Fig. 4):

figure 4.

— SIP.- settings for Internet calls;

— MIC- Microphone sensitivity settings;

— Sph - Configure speaker settings (that we apply in the ears);

— SPH2. - Settings of the second conversational speaker (I do not have it);

— SID - We skip, when changing these parameters, during the negotiations on your smartphone or tablet, you can hear yourself instead of the interlocutor;

— Media.- setting the volume of the multimedia;

— Ring - setting the volume of the incoming call;

— FMR. - Volume settings FM radio.

Next, under the selection item, it is available for us a list of volume levels (LEVEL) (Fig. 5). For better understanding - such levels 7, from Level 0 to Level 6. Each level corresponds to one "Click" on the volume of the volume of the volume of the smartphone or tablet. Accordingly, Level 0 is the most quiet level, and Level 6 is the most loud level of the signal. Each level you can assign your values \u200b\u200bthat are in the VALUE IS 0 ~ 255 cell, and should not go beyond the range from 0 to 255 (the lower the value, the lower the sound). To do this, you need to erase the old value in the cell, then enter a new (desired) and press the "SET" button (the one next to the cell) for assignment (Fig. 6). When using maximum values, be careful because the speakers can produce uncharacteristic unpleasant sounds in the form of rattling and other unpleasant effects.

figure 5 Figure 6

A warning! Before change, rewrite all factory values \u200b\u200b(suddenly something goes wrong).

You should know it!

Editing modes in engineering menu

Example 1. How to increase the volume of the incoming call?

To do this, go to the engineering menu, to draw the "Audio" section, go into the "Loudspeaker Mode" mode and select "Ring" in the volume settings - setting the incoming call. Then to change the values \u200b\u200bof all levels of signals to change (LEVEL 0 - LEVEL 6). Also for greater effect, you can increase the value of the MAX Vol. 0 ~ 160, if it is not maximum (I put up - 155, with a greater value, the speaker begins to "hoarse").

Example 2. How to raise the volume when talking on the phone? (Increasing the volume of the loudness of the small dynamics that we apply to the ear).

Again, we go into the already known engineering menu, rub the "Audio" section, go to the special mode "Normal Mode", select SPH in it - this parameter is responsible for changing the value of all signal levels in the interval from Level 0 to Level 6. Install the desired for us level. In the Max Vol. 0 ~ 160, you can also change to a higher volume value.

Example 3. Increase the volume and sensitivity of the spoken microphone of the smartphone

To adjust and set the required volume level as well as the sensitivity of the conversational microphone, you must go to the "Engineering Menu"\u003e "Audio"\u003e "Normal Mode"\u003e Select Mic- Microphone Sensitivity Settings, and for all levels (Level 0 - Level 6) We assign one and Also, the value, for example, 240. Now the interlocutor should hear you better.

Example 4. How to increase the sound recording volume on time video?

Suppose the need to increase the volume of sound recording when video recording, then in the engineering menu for our loudspeaker (Loudspeaker Mode), change the microphone sensitivity settings (MIC), increase all values \u200b\u200bat all levels (Level 0 - Level 6), for example, set 240 at each level. I remind you of clicking on the button (SET) - reboot your favorite gadget and rejoice.

By the way, do not forget to press the "SET" button after each editing of a specific parameter. This action must fix and accept your command. Otherwise, the parameters defined by the user are not activated. In addition, a certain amount of mobile devices require a reboot to change the changes to take effect (turn off and turn on the device).

Good luck in the experiments, if something is incomprehensible - write in the comments. We are waiting for answers from you.

Not all Android smartphones can boast loud speakers. Moreover, their sound depends not only on the quality and placement on the device body, but also from the fact that manufacturers deliberately underestimate the maximum volume in favor of safety for hearing and the speakers themselves. If it does not suit you, there are several ways to get around the restriction and increase the volume on Android.

Miss important calls when you are in public, noisy places, badly hear the interlocutor in headphones, and video and music are played very quiet? From this instruction, you will learn how to adjust the volume in the settings, increase it through a special application, engineering menu or editing a system file if.

How to control the volume on the Android smartphone

Starting with Android 6.0 in all firmware there are separate volume for multimedia, call and alarm clock. When you adjust it using the keys, while the settings are open on the phone, the main screen, menu, etc., only the rhington volume changes. Therefore, turning on the game, music or video, the media files will be played quietly if the high volume level is not set.

So if the call is heard well, but there is no multimedia, using the buttons to increase the volume when it works, radio, YouTube or the game is running.

The second way to change the volume level: Press the volume key, click on the right elder and set the values \u200b\u200bfor each slider.

Also adjust the volume in the "Sound" menu in the settings.

Volume adjustment in VOLUME BOOSTER application

Depending on the manufacturer, devices and version of Android, you need to edit different files and different lines in them, so look for information on a specific model on specialized forums. For example, on Xiaomi Redmi 4 you need to make the following edits in the Mixer_Path.xml and Mixer_paths_mtp.xml files (open the images in full, if not visible).

Consider several effective ways to increase the volume on android through the engineering menu.

The creators of this operating system have provided several modes of sound signals at once.

The volume of each of the signals depends on the connected device, the task running or from the phone use situation.

For example, the sound on the smartphone can be muted, and when the headset is turned on, the volume can increase dramatically.

If you faced similar inaccuracies in sound, We advise you to conduct engineering volume setting. This method implies a more complex configuration process, however, even newcomers will be able to master it. the main thing - Perform all stages of instructions in order.

Standard method setting

Android smartphone sound volume regulated by the system for each task separately:

Incoming calls;
Recording voice or conversation with another subscriber;
Sound systems;
Reproduction of media files.

Note! For all gadgets with a MTC processor of any generation, a single code is valid - *#*#54298#*#* Or combination * # * # 3646633 # * # *.

Log in with a third-party

If you can't go to the engineering menu using the first way or you simply not our code for your gadget, Use third-party utility - A program that automatically connects to the engineering menu and allows you to change the configuration of the smartphone through your interface.

One of the most reliable and popular utilities for working with the secret menu is MTK Engineering Mode.. It can be downloaded and installed on your gadget completely free.

Also, you can choose any other program to work with engineering settings by entering the "Engineering Mode" to search in the store.

To start the secret menu, simply open the application. No additional codes are needed to enter any additional information.

Consequences settings

Sound problems may occur absolutely on any phone or tablet.

The reasons for their appearance and the nature of the manifestation of the problem can be expressed in different ways, but the ways to eliminate the malfunction are always the same.

The software envelope implies the identical configuration of the sound card for smartphones from different manufacturers.

Differences can only be found in different versions of firmware or if your device is running a custom-based manufacturer based on android (for example, Flyme OS).

Each user should understand that the engineering menu configuration does not help sound at the same level as expensive devices.

At the same time, changing the menu configuration allows you to eliminate all the sounds in the sound and eliminate the noises that appear.

The postpone of all the parameters of the engineering menu "Maximum" does not guarantee the best sound quality. On the contrary, this setting can significantly spoil the gadget and cause hardware problems with speakers. This is due to the fact that the sound begins to play on frequencies that cannot use speaker.

As a result of incorrect setting, noise may occur when playing or recording sound, as well as wheezing, hum.

Volume increasing

After successfully launching the engineering menu on your gadget, you can go to an increase in the volume of the phone. Perform all instructions strictly according to each article.

Otherwise, the quality of playback may worsen.

Immediately after opening the menu, read its interface.

The main window has several tabs, each of which is responsible for global settings (testing hardware components, work with software shell and so on).

D. for moving between tabs, use the swipe "right-left".

Follow the instructions:

1 Go to the masonry "Hardware Testing";

2 Click on the item "Audio";

3 The window that opens appears the list of all modes that are available for configuration on your device. - normal mode, conversational and hearing speaker, notifications, etc.. Click on the desired parameter (the value of each option is indicated in the next section of the article);

4 In the window that opens, click on the field Type and in the list that appears, select the desired field ( SIP. - to configure cellular and Internet connections, MIC - to determine the sensitivity of the microphone, Sph - to set the speaker settings, Sph 2 - second speaker, SID - reflection of sound or echo, better not to change this field, Media. - Magnifier volume mode, Ring - the volume of call and notifications, FMR. - radio mode);

5 in the next field Level. Set the volume level (we recommend clicking first to zero and check the changed sound - so regenerate to the most suitable level of playback);

6 The next step you need to configure the value for the selected volume level. Enter it in the field Value. iS. (default volume). Range of values \u200b\u200bcan be any number from 0 to 255. We advise you to set averaged value;

7 Similarly, enter the number in the field. Max Vol. . - Maximum volume. To save the settings, click on the keys « SET. » ;

8 Slip Value. iS. and Max Vol. For the remaining volume levels. Remember Each level is one of your press. On the increasing / decrease key. It is important that the transition of changes to the sound was as smooth as possible.

All other tabs of the engineering menu are configured equally and have the same parameters.

Decoding the values \u200b\u200bof the modes

Each volume adjustment mode in the engineering menu has its purpose:

Normal Mode. - general configurations;
Headset Mode. - the mode of the connected headset;
Loudspeaker Mode. - Speakerphone;
Speech Logger. - conversational logs;
Headset_loudspeaker Mode. - loud connection + headset;
Speech Enhancement - conversation on the cellular network;
Audio Logger. - sound recording;
Debug Ingo - Debug.

Thematic videos:

It happens that the manufacturer of a smartphone or tablet on Android has not adjusted the volume of the sound, it lacks it in a noisy place. And then the consumer decides to dig in the settings itself, to explore all the possibilities to increase the sound. This will be discussed. To increase the lodge, you can use the standard device settings or engineering menu

Volume adjustment on the device with Android through the basic settings

Standard sound adjustment means in android

To adjust the voltage signal volume or during music playback, the sound is adjusted by the "arrows" - two ski buttons.

The second method is the system sound settings. Give the "Settings - Sound" command. Configure the call signal, adjust the volume in the Android system, customize the sounds of the screen workflows - the main thing is here.

How to get into the engineering menu to set the ringtone volume on the phone

For "Gourmet-connoisseurs" of high-quality sound, an engineering menu is available. Make the following.

The list of commands for entering the engineering menu in different brands of smartphones and tablets are attached.

After a set of the command, the engineering menu opens.

In it and configure the sound parameters on the device.

Setting all the sound parameters for headphones or speakers using the engineering menu

So, open the Audio submenu in the Android engineering menu.

With him something to work.

Android Engineering Menu Sound Submenu

Before climbing in the settings, check yourself on the knowledge of the parameters from the list of the list.

NORMAL MODE - normal mode, without connecting any accessories (headphones, etc.).
HEADSET MODE - External acoustics (amplifier with speakers or headphones) is connected to the smartphone or tablet.
Loudspeaker Mode - normal mode, working with speakerphone.
Headset-loudspeaker Mode is a loud connection with a telephone conversation with connected outer acoustics.
Speech Enhancement is a telephone conversation without connecting an external acoustics.
Speech Logger and Audio Logger are system drivers that provide configuration drivers. Their adjustment will affect the quality of the recorded sound. To write telephone conversations, it is better to use third-party programs for Android: "Call Record", "Call Recorder", "Total Recall CR", etc. - and not "wise" with these parameters.
Debug Info - Collect information about debugging sound parameters. Valuable for developers, but useless to the consumer.

Thin settings for tablet or smartphone

Setting specific values, you can adjust the sound on your smartphone or tablet in your own preference: to get to quiet or add to the maximum value. Sign in any of the above modes and set preferred values.

For example, the Normal Mode mode is taken - play music or video in the standby mode of incoming calls without external acoustics. Outgoing calls are not performed. Make the following.

Enter the submenu of this mode - the screen with fields for entering values \u200b\u200bwill appear.
Select the type of Android audio driver used (without it, the gadget would be "dumb").
Here SIP is Internet calls, MIC - Microphone setting, SPH (1/2) - Conversational speakers, SID - Repeat itself in dynamics instead of the interlocutor, Media - sound of music and cinema from your library, Ring - call melodies and sound alerts , FMR radio (if there is FM radio on the device).
By selecting the Type of Sound Settings, select the levels (they are adjusted by the volume buttons).
Set for each level your numeric value (0-255 units) before proceeding to the next one. To save, press the SET key ("Install").
Special attention is paid to the value of the maximum volume. It is one for all volume levels. Do not enter different levels at different levels - such settings simply will not be saved.
Similarly, adjust each parameter, go through all available.

Ready! The new settings will already be output from the engineering menu and restart the smartphone or tablet.

Attention! Do not set the volume values \u200b\u200bat which the speakers, headphones or the built-in spoken mini speaker will issue a "hoarse" or "husky" sound.

Working with the engineering menu is completed. To learn more detail - see this video on setting the sound in the engineering menu.

How to change the volume using third-party applications

When setting up the sound on the gadget using third-party programs for Android, do not install the maximum volume immediately - you can "catch" software failure or damage too loud sound one of the device speakers.

How to configure sound in speakers through the VOLUME + program

The app is free.

Download, install and run VOLUME + application
In the settings of the VOLUME + application, select Speaker Settings (Main Speaker) or Headset Settings.
Enable Virtual Room Effect (Virtual Room Effect) and Speaker Modifications.
Set the sound level (option VOLUME LEVEL), starting with a strengthening per unit.
If it comes to improving the sound of music and video - go to the Bass Enhance enhancement and virtual room effects (Virtual Room). Set similarly to sound levels. Turn on some song from your library to feel the difference in sound with new settings.

Important! Do not turn on the maximum values \u200b\u200bimmediately - an electronic chip that performs the role of a sound card or the checked speaker of the smartphone or tablet may simply burn. Improve the gain gradually. This applies to all applications for amplifying sound on Android gadgets.

Congratulations! You set up the optimal sound on your gadget. Working with the VOLUME + application is completed.

Working with sound in the VOLUME BOOSTER + application

The Volume Booster Plus application will be easier. It analyzes the sound settings, previously made using the engineering menu, and tries to improve them. The application has only the Boost button ("Strengthen" by pressing the improvement algorithm in this program launches.

Unfortunately, there are no extended settings in Volume Booster Plus - as in the same Volume +. There is no at least the main menu. The developer warns that the quality of the sound may not be at the height, and the volume may be too overestimated.

Other applications for sound optimization on gadgets with Android

There are not one ten of them - these are Android Bass Volume Booster, AudioManager Pro, Volume Ace, Equalizer + Music Amplifier, etc.

We use other ways to add sound on the device

Think, why do you need such a loud sound on the gadget? Maybe it is better to get good wireless headphones for two? Or connect to the gadget FM modulator - and get a mobile phone with the radio function? None of the best smartphone or tablet will replace the external acoustics - automotive or domestic speakers, as well as a modern music center or a radio tape recorder.

In Chinese stores (for example, in Aliexpress), a huge number of models of flat and compact columns are sold. All of them are equipped with an internal amplifier with a power up to several watts (active columns).
An external sound card with a high-quality amplifier and equalizer consumes a lot of energy. If the nutrition comes from microUSB on a smartphone or tablet (there are also such) - the battery "sees" very quickly. We need a separate power source.
Wireless solutions based on external amplifiers. The sound is usually transmitted by Bluetooth. And also need external (extra) nutrition.
Special covers and supports capable of overset sound - they create a feeling of greater volume, according to the laws of physics of sound signals.

Is it possible to remove the volume limit

Depending on how to count. If you need to set the sound, say, 25% more is not a problem. Applications with PlayMarket and the capabilities of the engineering menu it will provide. Manufacturers, reinsurance, set the maximum volume in secret (engineering) settings, somewhat smaller than the audio device and / or speakers can "pull" the buyers to the factory marriage, because modern acoustics should not "hoarse", nor "want" .

If you even try to ignitely "unscrew" the volume, getting it or creating such an Android application - that the "wheezes" of the modification will accumulate, overlap on each other and the sound will turn into a little distinguishable and useless noise, from which you hardly hear. Everything is good in moderation. Audio device, whatever it, will not give you to exceed the power to which it is calculated (according to the law of energy sufficiency). Do not try to "deceive nature" - in the worst case you just "smell". This is a very rare case when software settings can be physically opposed to your friend. A smartphone or tablet, alas, in itself is still too weak in front of your overestimated "sound appetite."

In general, enhance the sound in the areas that give you the official Google applications, Android engineering menu, exterior acoustics and special accessories.

Strengthening sound on smartphones and tablets with Android - not quite a useless task. Somewhat large than first, the volume, competently and with the mind adjusted, will bring additional convenience. If you listen to music or watch movies on a gadget in headphones - a thin sound tuning will also help: it will be much more pleasant. Excellent pastime!
