manually increase the BT headset volume

[DeniaL]

Is there a way to increase the volume of the BT headset through the phone...louder than the "slider" allows. I got a Jawbone, and it's PAINFULLY low in volume, even with the volume slider all the way up. And this $100+ headset has no volume controls (yay!). Any ideas? Thanks!

Uh, yes the Jawbone has a volume control... did you bother to read the manual??? The only drawback to the volume control is that it only cycles up to the max, then starts at the beginning - so no volume down...

Whoops I assumed you were a noob and didn't bother to read things - now that I saw the name...
It is possible if you're using the BT Audio script that the volume on the Jawbone doesn't work while in that mode. Try switching it to no audio reroute and try pressing the "Jawbone" on the headset. That's the volume adjustment.

I actually agreed with you until I finally figured out the problem with mine. I called AT&T because doing what pkley wasn't working and I figured maybe they would know or send me a new one (if this one wasn't working). I actually had to reset it...someHOW i managed to fawq it up and it wasn't allowing me to increase the call volume. Once I reset it, I was able to turn the volume up and now i'm happy as can be :)

Know what you mean, I thought the noise cancelling and auto volume adjust quit working on my first one so I swapped it out at AT&T. I'm pretty sure the issue is the non-standard VC I'm using to make it work thru the headset... Ah well, gain some, loose some...
