o2 Atom headset volume

[jaspal9]

Dear all,

I just purchased an Atom 02. The headset volume is very low even at it's highest. Any ideas to increase it?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi There,

The funny part to the story is that according to O2 sources, the original Atom was released with a ROM that allowed the volume to be set TOO HIGH!! A customer tried to 'go' O2 for hearing loss... So the next ROM went too far in the other direction..

In short, it's a registry setting change that affects all later Atom ROMS. The way everyone gets around it is to get a decent Bluetooth headset.. The QStarz 360 - http://store.pressdigital.com.au/qstarz-bhq360-p-1335.html - has been the most popular with the Atom. There are some notable glitches with the last Atom rom with all Bluetooth headsets though.. To avoid getting a loud squeak from the headset when you pickup a call, you need to pickup the call on the Atom (not headset) then transfer the call to headset (using the pickup button).. This prevents the person at the other end hearing a loud squeak..

Hope this helps!

Cheers
Andy
