Increased Volume

tekknogenius · 03-02-2012, 12:13 AM

I'm running Ermine and was wondering why my volume was so low even at max. I finally got tired of it and went to the market and downloaded one of the free volume controls. I noticed that the call volume was lower. Once I turned that up to max the rest of my volumes were increased greatly. Now I can actually use my PE to listen to music without headphones.

I wonder if I somehow turned the phone volume down or perhaps one of the programs I've installed. I thought it was strange the the phone volume would impact anything seeing that there is no phone on the PE LOL. I guess this reminds me that it is beta afterall.

Mine's pretty loud as well. In fact, many times I need to turn it down because it is too loud.

I have media volume set to max and system volume set low (for notifications). Listening to audiobooks or watching movies, I usually have to lower the volume several notches. Using headphones, I have to set the volume really low or risk hearing damage lol.

In this thread, "Sound - Disabled, or Not"
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...ighlight=sound, I found there are more sound settings then the EE/PE interface allows general access to.
