Phone volume problem solved

[tripp]

Hi!

I love my Diamond, but it has one big problem - I wasn't able to hear it in noisy environments. I realized, that poor sound is somehow related with AudioPara3.csv file in Windows directory. I made some tests with this file and whoaaa... my phone is quite louder now. Now I wish to share it with you. Unzip the file, overwrite the old file with the new one in the Windows folder (make backup before) and soft reset the device. You must hear the difference.. :)

[arix]

I didn't test your file yet, I m sure it maye help, but I made some tests with CorePlayer by change the equalizer parameters and got little bit more volume but with distortion ,seems like the main problem is the speaker itself....

[kalerat]

AudioPara3.csv file contains volume and gain values for speaker and microphone. I've tested it, and by raising volume values to the maximum - nothing happened, by raising gain values to the maximum- volume is louder. IMO this is maximum, that Diamond's poor speaker can produce. I am satisfied with it, maybe someone can do more tests and get better result.
Btw, all sounds are louder now: ringtone, speakerphone, system volume, music playback, etc.

[tripp]

Did you soft-reset your device?

Replace with Total Commander; Windows Explorer isnt working...

[korytr]

I tried this and it really sounds like massive quality loss. This has to be tweaked much more.

[EazyVG]

Thanks, will give it a try, as I just need little more volume from speakers.

[sibbor]

Thanks! Will try this out. If it works out well I would love to see this tweak/fix implemented in some cooked ROM's ^^
EDIT: This works out great! A bit load sometimes, and I can't lower the volume, but atleast I hear the phone ringing now :P

[carlsberg112]

Well i tested it , and it works .
Really loud ! :D , i had to lower the volume again ..
Nice work !.

[darklord69]

Thanks tripp! It really works! I use it with SRS WOW in which gives my Diamond the loudest sound it ever had :D

[Sergio PC]

This is awesome thanks a million.
It is reallyyyyy loud now.:p

Do these settings apply to ringer?

Thanks again very cool of you:)

[devish85]

[65coupei6]

Thanks. Worked perfect. It is a lot louder now. But needs a little tweaking because of distortion.

[josvasanth]

folks
i tried the total commander...
I was able to mke a backup of the existing file
but not able to copy the new file attached...
any detailed steps s very much appreciated..

[Alex20047]

Thank you!

It works for me!
I don't have distortion problem. It is quite suitable for me.

[mmak310]

mine is actually too loud, even on the lowest setting people around me can hear my conversation. can I use the same procedure to accomplish the opposite?

[PJ6363]

Definately looks like an enhancement worth carrying to the ACT and Diamond Tweaks...well done! :)

Could you ask a developer to optimize your work ? For example one of the Rom Cooker cause they might be interested :)

EDIT : I've just tried ! Impressive ! it's too loud ! before i used to listen my song at about 90% now it's more 30% !!!! Could you optimize it so that it's better (not too loud but louder than original in headset mode)

As I will turn down the volume (around 30% )when I'm in office and set a large volume (100%) when I'm in the street, does it will affect this setting and return to the original phone volume in my phone?

I'll explain, how to copy this file:
1. If You don't have, download and install Total Commander from here http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
2. Make in your internal storage two folders: for example AUDIOPARA_MOD and AUDIOPARA_ORIG
3. Unzip AudioPara3.csv file from attached AudioPara3.zip file
4. Copy this modified AudioPara3.csv file in the AUDIOPARA_MOD folder. You can do it, if you connect your device via USB cable.
5. Make backup of your existing AudioPara3 file: simply copy it from \Windows\ to AUDIOPARA_ORIG folder
6. Copy file from AUDIOPARA_MOD file to your \Windows\ folder, using Total Commander. It will ask you, if you want to overwrite existing file. Answer Yes
7. Close Total Commander and sofreset your device
8. Done :)

No, all volume steps are louder and original setting is back after overwriting modified AudioPara3 file with original AudioPara3 file.

[tripp]

Thanks for that :) !

Could you ask a developer to optimize your work ? For example one of the Rom Cooker cause they might be interested :)

Of course, everyone who know something about audio digitizng and know what does those terms in that file mean, can help. I don't know much, and those terms are something new to me. So, this is only beginning, and I hope someone can achieve much better results, as I can do.

[carloshdez]

It works :D

Good one

[flashmp3]

Can you tell us which lines of the file you modified ? I'll try to make a good compromise between volume and quality :)

I had change rows, beginning with F1 to F5, F8 to F11, F13 to F22, F25 to F27 and F30 to F34. Replaced the codecRxGain values. There are hex values for every volume step and max volumes. I had raise those values.

In fact it's very good job but when pushing to the max I realize it is breaking the speaker so a lighter boost would be perfect. Could you do that for us ? :):o:o:o

Actually the perfect thing would be:

If X is the volume with your value :

Volume in call = 90% X
Volume with headset = 80% X
Volume of ringtone = 70 % X

I asked in the Niki forum cause i used to have one. I modified our AudioPara.csv with the values of the niki's one (I used a soft that compares files and underline the differences. So I modified the values at the lines tripp mentionned). It results in a poor gain so it's not worthy. Hope tripp will provide use a "Light boost"

[Htc86]

My question is not considering this thread, but is somehow in relation with speaker volume...when talking to a person over the phone, his/her voice is somehow full of hiss and not clear at all. When phone skin is disabled you cannot do much about it, but with enabled phone skin, you can adjust the volume of phone speaker (conversation), what solves the problem, but not completely. Even at min. volume, hiss and unclarity exist...at official HTC phone service, they didn't have any troubles, i changed the sim card, and this annoying problem is still there...do any of you, guys have any suggestions or solutions to that matter?
thanks

I dont knwo if you guys use the same audiopara file, because your GSM, but we have made a great hacked version for the telus/sprint CDMA Diamond. it may work for you as well!

So is there a version with a slight boost yet?

How I can change the volume value for ringtones by using audiopara3.cvs Witch line and parameters need to change?

[SuperToy_nc]

Works great, but... only 40% volume equals 100% volume of old file. It's toooooo loud.

[tripp]

I have done some tests and only thing I know for now is, that only 2 parameters in AudioPara3 file will affect phone volume. Those parameters are:
F25,CE_PLAYBACK_HEADSET,5,4000,2FFC - 2FFC from here and
F26,CE_PLAYBACK_HANDSFREE,5,4000,5900 - 5900 from here

http://www.hot.ee/saepuru/Audiopara.JPG
This is original, not tweaked file

File can opened from Excel, so everyone can set your own parameters, that makes him happy.
I think there are more possibilities to modify this file and get more better results. But.. I don't have more skills to do those modifications. Maybe there are some people, who know how digital sound is processed and know, what those parameters in that file mean.

[Vulpix]

No new updates from the sound engineers?

[Vector-SS]

I read that the speakerphone (loud speaker) also improves.

Anyone who was really annoyed by the low volume can confirm this can help it? Playing music, in-call,, videos, etc.

So to make those a bit quieter, what hexadecimal codes could we change it to?

this must be easy. if original value is 2FFC (12284 in decimal) and tweaked value is FFFF (65535), then all we have to do i find a compromise between both.

FFFF value is probably the maximum value this parameter accepts (4 bytes), that's why everybody is complaining about the sound being very high.

i'm unable to test this atm because i'm still finding a way to create my "ROM image" with SPB Backup, so if any1 can test this feel free to go.

[flashmp3]

I have taken some time to analyse the different components and advices and decided to try by myself. Thanks to an Hexadecimal to decimal converter from this website :http://www.easycalculation.com/decimal-converter.php I think i have managed to create the light boost that still have high boost during call to be able to hear well :)

I have tested and find it well between original and modified one given by tripp (thanks again tripp :) )

Test it and tell me what you think about it

[Mr.Sir]

No qualityloss?

[flashmp3]

At max volume surely you'll lost quality because the speaker can't afford it. Plus, I don't use SRS WOW cause i find it useless knowing we can change 3D effect thanks to DIamond Tweak app and have hardware equalizer. With that i have a louder sound that orginal and lighter that tripp's.

Test it if you don't like it go for original one :)

Ok, so I tried to fix the volume problem with the full boost file... AudioPara3.csv Now the problem is, I have the Sprint diamond and now its messed up my sound badly so that it is BARELY audible. :S Not cool...

Can anyone plz upload their SPRINT version of the AudioPara3.csv for me please I would be greatly appreciative. Its located in your windows directory folder, if you cant see it, use TotalCommander to browse for it and copy it/send it in an email. You can send it to me at audiopara @ l2devastation.com if you cant upload it to the forum or whatnot

Thanks in advance

EDIT:
Found the file... But as a word of caution, make sure you get the Sprint/CDMA version of the file in the future rather than the GSM version, they are not compatable with one another. Just FYI

Please help as no changes are made to my volume

[MonteCristoffOn]

Hi all,

I don't know if it has already been done, but you will find packaged cab files in attachment to simplify the installation of these mods.

Each cab includes :


the copy of the matching level acoustic file AudioPara3.csv (avalaible in the first post, thanks Tripp!) in the Windows folder
the registry modification : HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\AcousticFile set to the string "windows\AudioPara3.csv"

After installation, you'll have to restart (soft reset) your device.

You could change your sound configuration as you want by installing the cab corresponding to the required level.

If you want to download the All-in-one complete pack (including the 3 cabs in attachment), it's avalaible here : AudioBoostPack.zip (http://www.4shared.com/file/67832085/eb7bfbcd/AudioBoostPack.html)

Well done Tripp, bloody brilliant. I also had to change the registry to point to the right file (as you outlined in an early post) and now my Diamond works a treat. That low volume problem was been the bane of my life for the last few years as I had the same problem on my IPAQ.

does this solution fix the in-ear speaker volume or the ringing volume? im still in the dark here

I dont think its for the in-ear speaker. Its more for listening to mp3 music on the loud speaker.
It would be great if the in-ear speaker is included.

[owziee]

Absoultely great stuff!!! Only thing that worries me is if the speaker was built to handle these volumes!?

I installed the lighter boost but still my speaker sounds very distorted on high volume... Maybe these hacks will blow our diamonds speakers?

Absoultely great stuff!!! Only thing that worries me is if the speaker was built to handle these volumes!?

I installed the lighter boost but still my speaker sounds very distorted on high volume... Maybe these hacks will blow our diamonds speakers?

You will blow your speaker without these hacks at max volume, if you play too long.

Edit, maybe not blow it, but it will start to sound really bad...

[SergeyBE]

Hi boys,

2-3 month ago I got installed "IncreaseVol.cab", it's was better sound during the call, but twoo weeks ago it's beginning rattling and noising. Now I can hear just durring the call just if I push the button "Speaker", if I play mp3, it's sounds like it have to be. What can be wrong with it ? Is it two speakers for ? Somebody idea about this ?

[Reason4444]

Unfortunately one member report his diamond speaker blow after a week of use in our local diamond forum... :( ...and he's installed lighter one too... :(

[Choper]

Thanks zillian times :D

[ptran504]

I used the cab file from the post that ricky posted above. The volume seems to have increased for my regular calls but the speakerphone stopped working and the music player is really low and super distorted (sounds like a blown speaker). Please let me know how I can fix it.

[ceicco]

Hi!

I love my Diamond, but it has one big problem - I wasn't able to hear it in noisy environments. I realized, that poor sound is somehow related with AudioPara3.csv file in Windows directory. I made some tests with this file and whoaaa... my phone is quite louder now. Now I wish to share it with you. Unzip the file, overwrite the old file with the new one in the Windows folder (make backup before) and soft reset the device. You must hear the difference.. :)


Please, where (how) do I find the windows directory I should replace the file in?
I was browsing the whole memory but did not found this file :(

Please.

Thanks a lot

[thebiscuitboy]

You need a diffrent file viewer, try Total Commander that will do it :)

[SE-Naz]

Would this volume cab work on the X1???

Only concern is the loud speaker volume... too low...

Thanks

[loco38]

thanks for this great effort
i was thinking to sell my phone due of low sound
now it`s so loud that i need to lower the volume
good work.............two thumps up

[theendfear]

yeah! work fine on my diamond! thanks for this big solution for audio problems of this device

[theendfear]

to avoid to use total commander, is possible to create a cab with this file with quick cab ;)

[DJKai]

Thanks, worked a treat. :D

[noisuf0]

I just got my HTC Touch Pro from Sprint. I downloaded a few of these AudioPara.csv files, and I moved it from "My Documents" over to the Windows directory using resco. A lot of you say you should replace the current AudioPara file-- I moved it, but It didn't replace anything (there apparently never was an audiopara file in my windows directory).

what gives?

for paste file audiopara in \windows directory you must use total commander, if you have a problem to use this file explorer use this cab file:

I have created this cab with this file audiopara posted by tripp ;)

[hah2110]

The light *.cab install worked like a dream on my FUZE! Thank you SO MUCH!

[semlohde]

I just loaded the cab from page 11 and MonteCristoffon, the middle milder lighter-boost one. Good thing it's milder! My rear speaker kicks at half way now, but I thought this was for the ear piece. You know - that front worthless speaker. I DO THANK YOU for the cab as the zip isn't going to happen. But I sure thought this was for the front ear speaker. Anyone know of something for that? I suspect it's the actual speaker.

[zwaps]

PLEASE:

Can someone make a cab that does the following:
- Reset the back speaker (music, ringtone) to normal volumes or boost it lightly
- Boost the front speaker (that goes to your ear during a call) much more.

I am using the old 1.37 or so O2 rom, if that helps.

I would be very, very grateful.

[semlohde]

I'm with zwaps on that. A little boost on the rear and better boost on the front. I have the HTC Fuze. MANY THANKS to you brilliant people who can do this stuff but this front speaker is poor. THANKS- ed

[kerm]

thanks alor for all your effort

[prakashkini]

Thank a lot buddy. You guys rock!!

^:)^

[jackthekayman]

are these file suitable for HD too?

[Nautme]

Okay, so I was reading this thread and was about to install the AudioPara3_lighter_boost.zip when I got to the point where someone mentioned that this does not affect the ear piece volume. Can someone confirm whether this affects the in call ear piece volume?

Also, there's a page where tripp mentions the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev: AcousticFile and that it must be set at AudioPara3.csv. I looked at mine and noticed it's AudioPara4_att_20080703.csv. Also, looking in the Windows directory, I see AudioPara.csv, AudioPara3.csv, and the AudioPara4_att_20080703.csv. The AudioPara.csv is only 11k, but the other two are about the same size. Has anyone compared these two files (I can't connect at the moment)?

Maybe tripp could update the first thread with what this changes (for sure) and a note about the registry (since if people just replace the file, it won't work if it's pointed somewhere else). Or I guess they could just read this post.

Also, has any tried the NueAudio application to toy with these settings? I tried, but I couldn't get it to install for some reason.

I've got the Att FUZE with the stock ROM.

[ronyjarod]

thanks for ur effort but it FAIL in my htc diamond. no difference at all after following at the instructions

[moyse007]

Soft reset after duplicate file?
It's ok for me but now the sound is too loud and there is a lot of parasit distorsion ....

But good works !

[bigjosh04]

which one of the three zip files do you recommend for the sprint diamond

[wheelo]

I read this post wih interest as I used this method:

http://www.ozpoi.com/Edit_Voices.htm

to increase the volume of the GPS and ever since the in ear speaker appears to be slightly blown with a buzzing sound. Could the GPS be using the front speaker instead of the rear speaker?

[Ramucio]

Tank you tripp
your files solved volume problem in POLARIS!!!

[blueeagle]

it made the volume on the outta speaker better with ringtone and mp3s, but I got no diffrence with my speaker phone

Hi Tripp,

can you please tell me which of the audiopara parameter is responsible for audio level of internal audio recording? I use VITO Audio Notes v1.32 for calls recording and I have a problem with low recording level of others' voice (mine is recorded well). When I switch to Speaker phone, then both levels are recorded accuratelly. Mine as well as caller's voice are at the same level.
If you would be so kind and send me your brief description of each audiopara parameters, I would be very thankful to you.
Otherwise, can you please modify original file from my HTC Touch Diamond P3700, which I have attached to this thread?

Thank you indeed!
Daniel

[p213crew]

Thanks for the files. I installed it but for some reason it was too distorted even with the light booster. I did however like the sound of the earpiece. So what i did was edit the file to just increase the volume level of the earpiece.

These are the only 6 lines I changed (Changes are only made under the rxVolume column)
F12 PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL0 0 4000 2013 0 656E 2013
F13 PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL1 1 4000 2013 0 656E 5000
F14 PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL2 2 4000 4000 0 656E 6000
F15 PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL3 3 4000 4000 0 656E 7000
F16 PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL4 4 4000 4000 0 656E 9000
F17 PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL5 5 4000 4000 0 656E B000

I left VOL0 at 2013 then changed the rest. VOL1 and VOL2 were at 2D4E changed them to 5000 and 6000. VOL3 was set to 4000 changed to 7000, VOL4 was set to 5A67 changed to 9000, and VOL5 was set to 7Fb2 changed to B000. I sort of used the same settings from the light_booster file by leaving the max volume at B000. This sounds great.

Works good. Copy the original AudioPara3 file from your phone to your PC and open with Excel and edit those 5 things then copy it back to your phone using Total Commander to your storage card or a folder in your phones storage.

For those of you having problems copying the file using Total comander, open TC and go to where you have the new AudioPara3.csv file. Once there touch and hold the AudioPara3.csv file until you get the little window that gives you the option to Copy/Move. Select copy/move. It will ask you were you want to copy/move it to. Select Tree button. Now select the WINDOWS folder and then it will ask you if you want to overwrite the file. Click Yes and soft reset. I was having problems figuring out how to copy the file myself with total commander.

Hopefully this is good enough for those of you asking for just the earpeice volume fix.

And of course thanks to the gurus that made this fix available and gave us the ideas. Much appreciated.

And to think I was getting ready to take the phone back because of the low volume. I was even thinking of getting an..... iPhone. Sorry, I didn't mean to say that.

This really helps increase the volume of the Diamond, but I hate the distortion of the sounds, even with the lower one. The speaker isn't able to cope with the increased volume...pity :(

p213crew

Hi p213crew,

thank you for information you sent to me. I modified the file and just restarted my cellphone. I will test it and let you know the results. Anyway, the reason why I asked about explanation of these parameters is, that I wanted to customize Audiopara file according to my needs:
- increase MIC gain in Speakerphone mode (so other party can clearly hear me in case I'm further from the phone (2-3 meters))
- increase a little bit MIC gain in regular phone mode (the same reason as above)
- increase volume of speaker while talking in Speakerphone mode (this should your tweak solves)
- increase internal audio bus gain (used for recording of calls when other party's voice volume level was too low compare to mine)
- increase a bit ringing volume, but also ensure, that level can be decreased manually by VolUp/VolDown buttons (by applying tweaked Audiopara file, the volume was still too loud even if vloume was decreased manually to minimum)

That's all from my side. So I'm gonna test it and let you know all.
Thank you and have all a nice day!

Cheers,
Duncho

Okay guys, hello to all!
I have the same problem as SergeyBE told here:2-3 month ago I got installed "IncreaseVol.cab", it's was better sound during the call, but twoo weeks ago it's beginning rattling and noising. Now I can hear just durring the call just if I push the button "Speaker", if I play mp3, it's sounds like it have to be.


So my speaker (which one when I listening to someone during the call) so it blowed up :( Yeah, there is noise and really bad bad sound :( But that speaker which is for when phone is ringing or listening to the music works fine after the boost! Now my phone is repairing but I want to increase a ring volume and volume when listening to the music (or watching video) without increasing volume parametres for the speaker which is working during the call!
So can anyone help me here? Does anybody here have original audiopara3 file with increased only Ring volume and Multimedia volume? or can somebody here make it for me? thanks a lot in advance

Thanks for a great app guys. It does work very well.
As a matter of interest - could these adjustments be included in a program like Advanced Config 3.3 where each individual can change the in call-/ speaker / earpiece volume as required?
Many thanks

Iv just recently upgraded to a HTC Touch Diamond from a HTC Trinity (3600) and I think that theres alot of improvements on the Diamond that the Trinity doesn't have such as double the resolution on screen but I have to admit im pretty disapointed with the volume of the Diamond as the Trinity totally beat it with a much higher volume and just as good speaker quality. Im tempted to use this tweak but after hearing that people had blow there speakers I think I'd rather play it safe and leave it alone

[rxyamaha]

Excellent finding guys, Just loaded onto my Diamond, works like a charm. Had little distortion, but if you decrease the level by bit, it works.. I was worried after taking this phone because of poor sound quality.. My initial htc touch(elf) has better sound quality than Diamond. I don't know why HTC decided to reduce the sound quality with new models.

[Dr.Tenma]

I tried the light version because the full one make distortion :/
So i have question, i installed many tweaks for sound, i was wondering if all those tweaks will not make problems ?
I mean, i installed light version, plus wow srs hd, plus diamond tweak with sound tweaks set to max !
Thank's in advance.

[alex12624]

The sound is larger than before. Thank you very much.:)

[Yass44]

Hello guys, I have the same sound problem as you had with my PPC, but it's not an HTC, it's a spanish ppc from branded "Airis".

I was wondering if I could use your correction file audiopara3 without any risk ?

Thank you all

[mitsi]

Hi, I installed the main booster, which works very well and thank you very much! However, my volume up and down buttons do not alter the volume for an incoming call. When i want to mute it, or put the phone into vibrate mode, my ringtone still sounds. The volume up and down buttons do work in Coreplayer though. Any ideas?:confused:

[Dr.Tenma]

Ok...are you guys working on something new to improve sound (editing csv file ?) or you're busy ?

[Gulfport]

Can someone please attach the OEM Alltel audiopara file? I tried the fix here and it totally screwed up my sounds.

thanks.

I installed the audiopara3 in this thread and the in-call volume works great now. But now I can't hear the ring volume when someone calls. I tried adjusting the ring volume in the registry but that didn't work. Any ideas!

Hi, i need some help with this audiopara thing

i tried it and it doesnt seemed to increase the volume at all but im sure it took effect as it does distort the audio

all i need is louder ring tones/alarms(even the sound of the vibrator is louder then the speakers) as its impossible to hear it in my pocket

[RoyalK]

Hi i just got the HTC Diamond today! i know the volume level is shockin, now i have downloaded total comndr and the audiopara3 file, now in explorer it gives me the error sayin its a read only file cant be replaced etc

and then in total commander it doesnt pick up my mobile device? please can someone help me! i have msn if anyone wants to help me thru there, Crazykyle7@hotmail.com!

Thanks

[tigueraje]

1- Download the AudioPara3.csv file from the first post.
2- Connect your Diamond to your PC and choose the activesync option.
3- Open both "Internal Storage" and your device's main folder in different windows.
4- Copy AudioPara3.csv from your PC to the Internal Storage folder.
5- Now move/copy AudioPara.csv from Internal Storage to your device's /Windows folder; (you will get an overwrite prompt, click yes and you should be done).
6- Soft-reset your device to apply changes.

Note: All file operations described here are to be performed in your computer, not in the device. Also, if you try to overwrite this file directly from your PC, you will get a permission error.
BTW, I'm using Vista x64

[trinec]

Thanks, FullBoost helps a little bit for understanding my mate on the ear speaker.
Nice phone, but I've never seen such a worse ear speaker before...

[Dr.Tenma]

Which one is better, tripp's para file or this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436552 ?

[Holgerle]

OK guys, try this. This is more "lighter" boost
thx, works good!

But my ringtone is still not loud enough! What can I do to boost only ringtone?

Thanks for help!!

[Holgerle]

AudioPara3.csv file contains volume and gain values for speaker and microphone. I've tested it, and by raising volume values to the maximum - nothing happened, by raising gain values to the maximum- volume is louder. IMO this is maximum, that Diamond's poor speaker can produce. I am satisfied with it, maybe someone can do more tests and get better result.
Btw, all sounds are louder now: ringtone, speakerphone, system volume, music playback, etc.
thx, how can i increase only ringtone volume?

[SmS4SYR]

Hello

is your file can make up volume for FM radio ?

Thank you

[lwj383]

[desiaddict]

Hey guys this works great and also increases ring volume.
I recommend the lighter boost cab file for ease which is included in page 11 thanks to MonteCristoffOn for cab file and also thanks to Tripp for the main files and for this wonderful thread.
And because of u all my sound is much better now and pls keep your volume to 50% for much clearity and btw lighter boost is much better than full boost as u will have much clarity in voice and no buzzing sound.
And i also have installed advanced configuration and diamond tweak so guys use this soft also to increase volume + lighter boost for much better sound exp.
Thanks for this to xda and members.

Solution for this problem: Do not use SRS WOW HD!

[theculprit]

Dunno if this is still relevent but with some minor cuts and tweaks i managed to fit the speaker from an nokia 5200B (best sounding oem speaker imo) into the touch diamond together with Diamond Tweak 0.5.3 sound tweaks, made the 3700 sound 300% better. I Had no camera to record the procedure at the time, but if you can find a nokia 5200 for spare parts and follow this guide somehow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lJoelghkH8 you can squeeze the speaker in.

edit: i can take some pictures tho of the final result.

Can I use it on TouchPro ?

[Roman5]

In my windows folder, the only audiopara file I can find is
AudioPara4 -TMO-EU_V3.csv. I don't seem to have audiopara3. :confused:

edit: yay, I found audiopara3.csv after all. Now I shall give this a go with the light boost. :D

[Roman5]

Ok, this doesn't work for me. I used total commander. I've tried both the light boost and the full boost. I pressed 'overwrite' (choices were 'overwrite', 'overwrite all' and 'overwrite older') and I soft reset each time. Absolutely no voulme difference, full volume on full boost exactly the same as the factory default volume. What am I doing wrong? :(

[Roman5]

I have done some tests and only thing I know for now is, that only 2 parameters in AudioPara3 file will affect phone volume. Those parameters are:
F25,CE_PLAYBACK_HEADSET,5,4000,2FFC - 2FFC from here and
F26,CE_PLAYBACK_HANDSFREE,5,4000,5900 - 5900 from here

http://www.hot.ee/saepuru/Audiopara.JPG
This is original, not tweaked file

File can opened from Excel, so everyone can set your own parameters, that makes him happy.
I think there are more possibilities to modify this file and get more better results. But.. I don't have more skills to do those modifications. Maybe there are some people, who know how digital sound is processed and know, what those parameters in that file mean.

I'm confused. I opened the LIGHT BOOST audiopara3.csv in excel, and it has the exact same values (2FFC and 5900) as the original, ie, same as in your screenshot. So how have members here been able to hear a volume increase?

I've tried both modded files, and currently have the full boost one installed. It has apparently overwritten the original because I copied it back from the phone's windows folder to my pc and opened it in excel to check the values and it's showing FFFF, ie, the full boost values. Neither work, music and videos and sat nav sounds are not louder.


Is this fix meant to increase volume for everything on the phone, including sat nav voices and videos? Or just phone calls? It's all very vague.

I have an idea for this problem. My story is:

I Bought a Jabra BT620s for my HTC Diamond. When I listen to music in A2DP it was quiet. I started to tweak the A2DP, the google is my best friend :). I spent - F*ck - a lot of time with SRS WOW HD, with Advanced Config ect.

Now, its my resolve: AudioPara3_lighter_boost.zip + Advanced Config Tool + CONDUTIS POCKET PLAYER 4.1!! You can use DSP plugins - 4 example bass boost, treble boost, variable boost, peak boost ect. You can set freq. for every boost for your BT headset for your music style for maximum performance!! I dont use EQ in Condutis, only DSP plugins, it works FINE. My headset is now loud, I hear now real bass loud:)

In the Advanced config I use bitpool max 70, min 20, with very high bitpool settings with 3D sound level very high. I think in the future must uninstall the AudioPara3_lighter_boost because I heard distors noise sometime.

PS.: The SRS WOW HD is a very very unstable app. Sometimes I cant started my phone - display - Its very intresting because my phone - I think - turned off, but I can manually soft reset. Its interesting.

The audiopara its very usefull, but not enough signle for the good music quality. Its only preamp the sound with little distors noise. Every time to try music in my phone used S2P, but now - I think - solved the low volume promlem in my diamond with condutis pocket player.

Anybody try Condutis pocket player 4.1 with DSP plugins?

If anybody solve the problem with noise distors level in condutis, please write a post with DSP plugin settings here!

You can find the Condutis pocket player here:

Ok, this is weird, I just downloaded the modified audiopara3.csv file to boost volume on my diamond and it doesn't have one to begin with, so nothing to overwrite. I'm using the NRG rom.

There's audiopara.csv, do I rename and overwrite that?

Does anyone knows if this patch work to wm 6.5 ? It has the same file..

I have tried all these mods and they kill my speakerphone everytime. I can barely hear it. However, the earpiece sounds great. I am using a Att Fuze. Any idea why this would happen?

I have diamond tweak installed and had changed the volume settings (ie 100db limit) before but have reverted when trying these mods; still no good. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Doesn't anyone has an answer to this? Thanks ,

[duncho]

yes, it does...

[sosimple]

yes, it does...
Why do i think that the sound doesn't go higher?

[psymont]

I have tried altering the audiopara3 my self and still have had no luck. I just need to change the earpiece volume. If you know how, please assist me. :(

[psymont]

Okay...I got it. Just replaced earpiece lines in code. The attachment will increase your earpiece volume leaving speakerphone alone.

Hi all,

I was starting to play around with the bluetooth parts in the audiopara files, but it does not help me at all =(. For the speaker it worked but not for the BT music parts.

Do I have to add a BT device specific line in that file (like for the Motorola s9) and can please s.o. tell me, which each column means?

Thing is, I think there are a gazillion versions out there. Depending on Rom version, I had low volume, no change or no sound at all. The cabs that this Ricky-dude made worked on every version I had so far - but I guess even that could be phone specific.

Then again, some people don't even complain about the volume. It seems to be a problem related to a few Diamonds, not all.

Basically, there is no solution for everybody.
We could collect all the different cabs in a post, if we had the time that is.

[alexandru_q]

it works
i'm also use a convertor and change the files to wav and very important i increase audio volume from 256 to 600,with the convertor.:D

[Pirulete]

it's works, thanks tripp

[wolfraim]

i test the light and full... but increase too much the volume, the sound is bad.

but thanks a lot :)

Hi!

I love my Diamond, but it has one big problem - I wasn't able to hear it in noisy environments. I realized, that poor sound is somehow related with AudioPara3.csv file in Windows directory. I made some tests with this file and whoaaa... my phone is quite louder now. Now I wish to share it with you. Unzip the file, overwrite the old file with the new one in the Windows folder (make backup before) and soft reset the device. You must hear the difference.. :)

Hi
I installed the audiopara3 in first post in this thread on my touch pro and in-call volume and other sounds works great now,but I want to increase just my in-call volume without any changes in other volumes of the phone.can you make a audiopara3 for me for this problem ? because all the sounds of my phone in good for me except in-call volume,I can't hear the other person's sound in the street or other busy states.
thanks alot

fantastic job

Hi tripp,

Thanks for the audiopara3 it works on my kaiser. Only problem is BT it does not reconise my BT gear i.e a HBH-600, my Qstik EVOQ_VQ360 (A2DP) and my DriveClear which is an Nexus Visor CarKit.
I have tried editing the audiopara3.csv file using both Excel and a HexEditor, but for some reason it keeps screwing up the kaiser.....any ideas please.....:confused:

[dexterouslibran]

I have Sprint Touch Pro - with Mighty ROM 6 (Windows 6.5) on it.

I had tried using one of the audiopara files... Badboy fixes available on PPCGeek.

it improved the incall speakerphone volume quite a bit.

But the volume of apps like Youtube, WM player, mp3 ringtones etc.. while on speakerphone (loudspeaker mode) is still pathetic.

Please let me know if there is updated fix available that fixes voulme on these apps too while on speakerphone (loudspeaker mode)

With this program (Beyond compare) is it possible to modify the volume of external speaker?

EDIT:
What are the parametres that I have to modify to decrease the mininum volume of external speaker?
Thank you very much.. :)

[mikeeeikeee]
