    Thread [Q] Speaker is incredibly quiet, any fix?

    I noticed the very low speaker volume since the first day I got it, the speaker volume is so low that I can only hear it on the maximum volume. This cannot be right. The latest upgrade (2A1.136) made the volume even lower. Is there a software fix ?

    That behaviour would only be feasible to implement on a rooted device :) The top device which contributes to the 1200+ downloads is Galaxy S2. There has been 4 crash reports in total (the app occasionally crashes after loading apps.. I'm still investigating) but none of them came from S2.
