An optimally selected sound volume allows you to hear an important call, watch a movie or listen to music with pleasure. You can adjust the sound on Android separately for applications, notifications, calls and players. The user has several ways to increase the volume, including through the engineering menu - they are described below.
On smartphones and tablets running Android, you can adjust the sound using the volume key. The key is a “rocker” - pressing up increases the volume, and clicking down decreases it. If an application or movie is open at the moment you press the key, the media volume will change, and if the desktop, the call volume will change.
If the sound spontaneously switches to “Quiet”, check your smartphone for viruses. Remove applications that have access to volume control and evaluate the situation. Also check if the “Ring louder in your pocket” mode is enabled. To do this, go to settings, select “Calls - Call louder in your pocket.” If necessary, disable the feature.
You can configure sound settings in standard settings smartphone or tablet:
- Go to Settings and select Sound.
- Select "Volume".
- Use the sliders to adjust the volume values for each type of sound - notifications, calls, applications.
- Click "OK" to save the settings.
Depending on the version of Android, the settings item may be called “Melodies and Sound”, Sound, etc.

Tricks to boost sound on Android
An external speaker solves the problem of insufficient volume on a smartphone or tablet when other methods do not help. Speaker - small device with a 3.5 mm plug, - inserted into the headphone jack or connected via bluetooth. Cost - from 700 rub.
A lifehack to increase the volume - while playing a video or playing music, position the smartphone with the speaker towards the painted wall. The sound will be reflected from the surface and at the same time amplified.
Is it possible to remove the volume limit?
Android smartphones have a maximum volume limit to protect the device's speakers and users' eardrums. The engineering menu allows you to increase the upper limit - the Max item. Vol. The maximum value is 255 units. It is impossible to set the value higher, and it is not required - otherwise the speakers will not stand it.
If you do not want to access the service menu, use Volume application Unlock:
- Install the program from the Play Store.
- Go to the application and activate the Enable Volume Power item.
The program does not remove the limitation, but increases the maximum value.
Test the methods described above to increase the volume and choose the best one for your device. Work with the engineering menu carefully - incorrect settings can lead to problems with the sound of your smartphone or tablet.
The volume control on the side of the case is not the only thing responsible for the sound on smartphones. There are dozens of sound options available for settings - from the sound of pressing on-screen buttons to setting different melodies for calls from different contacts.
You can adjust the music equalizer, lower the music volume without affecting the alarm volume, and even remove the click when the screen turns off, putting the device into sleep mode.
Below are six audio settings on Android Lollipop and iOS 8.4.
1. Sound when pressing buttons on the screen
For some, the sound when pressing buttons helps, but for others it irritates. You can turn it on and off.
On Android:
Settings -> Language and input -> Keyboard and input methods. Select the keyboard to use.
For Android keyboards By default, click Settings -> Key Sound. You can also adjust the vibration response of the keys.
If you are using a third-party keyboard, you will have to look for settings. For the popular SwiftKey keyboard, tap Sounds & vibration and set your keypress sound settings.
On iOS:
Click Settings -> Sounds.
At the bottom of the screen, use the Keyboard Clicks switch.
2. Smartphone lock sound
There is something comforting in the sound of a device locking when you know for sure that it is locked and inaccessible to strangers. But if desired, this sound can be turned off.
On Android:
Settings -> Sounds and notifications -> Other sounds -> Screen lock sound.
On iOS:
Settings -> Sounds -> Lock sound.
3. We prohibit the volume buttons from changing the alarm and ringer volume
An interesting problem for owners of iPads who use them as an alarm clock: the volume keys reduce the volume of music, YouTube videos, etc., but they can also reduce the volume of the ringer and alarm. To correct the situation, iOS has a setting that prevents the volume button from changing the sound of alarms and calls.
Settings -> Sounds -> Calls and alarms -> Change buttons. Set the switch to the Off position.
Note: There is no similar setting on Android, but there is a section Settings -> Sounds and notifications with three separate sound settings sliders.
4. Setting custom ringtones for individual contacts
Everyone knows that you can change ringtones and text messages. However, it is not so obvious that for each contact you can set separate melody so that when you hear it from afar, you know who is calling.
On Android:
Open the Contacts app (or People app on Android KitKat), then tap the contact card.
Click the Edit button (with the pencil icon), then the button with three vertical stripes at the top, then the Set ringtone option. Select a new ringtone.
On iOS:
Open the Contacts app, tap a contact, tap the Edit button, then go to the Ringtone field.
Tap your current ringtone (probably the default one) and select a new one.
While you're here, there's a Text Tone setting at the bottom; it allows you to set a text message sound for a contact.

If you are trying to find a way to increase the speaker volume on Android, you will probably come to this page.
And rest assured, here you will find this method, and more than one.
In this case, intuition or the “trial and error” method will help you choose the best option from the proposed set of methods.
In any case, you will be pleased with the result, but for now let’s start looking at the problem.
Content:What should you pay attention to?
Sound problems, one way or another, can occur with any device - both budget and quite expensive.
However, the ways to solve these problems are almost identical, since the software part of systems of the same generation will always be similar, even with some differences.
Accordingly, minimal differences in the setup process will be associated to a greater extent with the features of the operating system version.
As for the sound features of the device itself, it is worth noting that the differences in the sound of an expensive and budget device will still be noticeable.
And not all software are able to correct the sound quality of the speaker or based on Android.
Thus, if the sound produced by such a speaker is increased, hardware problems may arise as a counterbalance.
For example, the speaker will begin to produce sound at unauthorized frequencies and, as a result, extraneous noise will appear during the sound, including squeaks, wheezing, crackling and, possibly, popping.
Therefore, in the process of selecting settings, keep in mind that such problems may arise and try to avoid mistakes in order to maintain the functionality of the device.
Standard way to solve the problem
Before moving on to the most stringent control measures on Android, let's look at the rules for standard volume control.
Note that volume adjustment can be done both globally for all system sounds and for individual applications, which is especially important when you seem to have set the sound to full volume, but in the media player the composition is played quietly.
In this situation, everything can be solved mechanically, i.e. using the volume rocker key.
It should be used not when the desktop is displayed on the screen, but precisely when a given application is running.
For example, in conversation mode the volume will be adjusted specifically for communication, and when viewing a gallery, the volume of the video being played will be adjusted.
Using this method, most users come to the conclusion that in some situations the sound of a smartphone is excessive, and in other situations it is insufficient.
The correct way to solve the problem
The second way to adjust the sound involves using other standard means– software.
Their functionality is limited to just a few categories that regulate sound volume:
- calls;
- talk;
- system sounds;
- media files.
It only takes a few steps to get to these adjustments. The first step is to find system application with the name "Settings".
Its shortcut looks like a gear, regardless of the applied theme.
It is inside it that the hinges are hidden, thanks to which you can fine-tune the sound of each of the above categories.
It is worth noting that the clarity of such adjustments leaves much to be desired, despite the modern interface.
However, after playing with the hinges using short and long taps (with holding), it is not difficult to understand how the application works.
Moreover, if these settings are set to maximum, this will only be a limit that the device manufacturer or proprietary developer does not allow to be violated. firmware at the base and in order to disrupt them, it is necessary to use other methods.

Software method for solving the problem
When the built-in capabilities of a gadget seem insufficient, the user’s first reaction is to use third-party software. There are a great many of them in.
But before you give up searching for it "Volume Booster", it is worth paying attention to the fact that not all software tools provide complete freedom of action.
Some applications have rather narrow functionality and simply maximize the hardware power of speakers and microphones, which is completely wrong, and a similar result can be achieved using hidden built-in tools, which will be discussed later.
In the meantime, let's pay attention to the fact that with the help of one application you can not only improve the sound, but also improve the quality of the reproduced sound thanks to the special software tricks used.
Therefore, it would be more correct to look not for a volume increaser, but for something like an audio center or utility for.
Therefore, when choosing them, you need to clearly understand which team you are choosing.
To access the volume settings, you need to find “Hardware testing” among the application windows.
Most models allow you to do this by swiping sideways. In the list that appears on the screen, you will need to select the “Audio” category.
After this, the adjustment window will become available.
Inside it, you will need to select a value for a drop-down list with a custom mode that contains values, and the most important ones are the first ones:
For each of them there is a list of virtual and physical devices:
- FMR – FM radio;
- Media – media player;
- Mic – microphone;
- Ring – call;
- Sip – network sounds;
- Sph – conversational speaker;
- Sph2 – additional speaker (not available on all models).
Each of them has several volume levels, starting from zero. Values are set for them manually.
Setting the device volume
To install correctly highest value volume for virtual or physical device, you need to go to the highest level in the list, for example, 13Level.
For it in the corresponding cell you will need to increase the standard value by several points.
The highest and lowest values available for that device will be listed in parentheses on the side.
All selected parameters will be applied immediately, immediately after pressing the “Set” button located next to the cell where the numbers are entered.
Please note: each Level is responsible for one press of the volume rocker key. Therefore, if you enter the volume value not in a given order, the sound will change accordingly.
