[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I wanted an app to play audio through a phone earpiece, so that if I didn't take my headphones somewhere, I could still listen to an audio book as if I was on the phone. So I made a very simple app that toggles whether sound comes from the earpiece or the speaker: Earpiece.

Currently alpha, or maybe early beta, quality. Works on my Epic 4G Touch. Don't know how many other phones it'll work for. (Interestingly, I also noticed that if I have earphones plugged in and I select earpiece mode, then the volume goes up a little. I am curious if this happens for other users)

I also wanted an app that would let me boost the audio volume, so I added that functionality to Earpiece while I was at it (Android 2.3+ only, should work even on devices like tablets that don't have an earpiece). I know there are such apps (Volume+ seems to be the most popular one), but why have a separate app for this?

You can set Earpiece to show up when you long-press the search key. (I don't use this feature myself. Instead, I have another simple app that pops up a menu of my favorite apps when I long-press the search key, and I use that to launch Earpiece.)

Free and open source (BSD license).
[Android Apps and Games] enskje:
Works on SGM l. But DSp manager FCs
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
With what settings in Earpiece?

I would expect the Boost setting to interfere with DSP Manager, since both apps would be trying to do the same thing.
[Android Apps and Games] 5pace:
Not working on Motorola Defy with MIUI GB ROM.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Thanks! Tell me more. How did you test it?

Here's how I test. I start an audio book playing in Mortplayer, and then go to Earpiece, and toggle the Earpiece checkmark.
[Android Apps and Games] chw9999:
Clever idea, thanks! :)

Works perfectly on my HTC EVO 3D ICS 4.0.3 leak, boost as well - even the feeble speaker becomes louder :)

Cheers

[Android Apps and Games] mikpel:
Works perfectly on ZTE Blade.

Looks pretty weird when "talking" to phone without saying anything :D
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
It looks like the person on the other end of the line is just talking your ear off and not letting you get a word in. :-)

Question: Should I activate the proximity sensor in Earpiece mode, and turn the device screen off and on based on closeness to the face?
[Android Apps and Games] julle131:
Thats great idea. Im using this in sgs2 running aokp.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I just posted 0.02 with proximity sensor support.
[Android Apps and Games] chw9999:
Screen off while close to face is default for phone calls on my htc, saves lots! of battery during long talks.

So, yes, please :)

Workaround so far: With screen off manually (power button), sound plays nicely in the background.

Thanks and Cheers!

EDIT: Too fast for me ;) Thanks again!

Edit: Getting FC after "boosting"... all options set
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Did this happen with the previous version?

Can you send me a log after the crash? Install Log Collector, then do the crash again, and then go to Log Collector to email the log to arpruss at gmail dot com.
[Android Apps and Games] chw9999:
My ICS has a not stable beats installed, deactivated it, now works flawless :)

Noticed that the "Volume up/down" beeps don't get routed through earpeace, which is fine with me. Probably, because it's not a media volume sound?

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] Gokh:

[Android Apps and Games] NatsuDragneell:
Works for mytouch 4g miui gb
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
You mean, for greater volume?

I doubt it, but I can experiment and see. Might actually be hard to tell if it's working, because the earpiece speaker will be drowned out by the main speaker.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I just posted 0.03.

It switches to the earpiece using a slightly different method. I'd appreciate reports whether it works for people.

By the way, no luck routing audio to BOTH the speaker and the earpiece at the same time.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I posted a release in the Market.

The release version carries one text ad on the screen, for my paid products. If the ad annoys you, just buy any of my paid products and the ad will disappear. Or just use a pre-release version. :-)
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Cool thing I found. If you turn on Earpiece while in Camera, the camera sound gets routed to the earpiece, and hence is very quiet, at least in my Epic 4G Touch.

(I know there are root-based solutions to the camera sound issue, but I haven't rooted my phone yet--I haven't found a way to do it that's both safe and doesn't involve copyright problems, like downloading unauthorized copies of parts of ROMs.)
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I posted 1.01 in the Market and on the google code page. If you press MENU, you can go to Settings and select whether you want the status bar notification always, only when the background service is running, or never. The "never" is attractive if you don't like clutter, but unfortunately it allows the OS to kill Earpiece's proximity sensor and boost features (they need the background service) when the OS runs out of memory. Still, it's up to the user.

I am kind of excited by my discovery that earpiece mode makes the camera sound come out of the earpiece and hence be very quiet. I've experimented some more, and when I combine this with a negative volume boost, I can make the camera sound almost inaudible--probably inaudible to anybody more than two feet away except in an almost perfectly silent environment. Of course, for rooted devices there are ways of turning it off entirely, but I don't have root, and I want to be able to take pictures without disturbing people.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Here's a prerelease of 1.02. It adds a new feature (buried in the settings menu) which I saw in some app where in-call the speaker phone activates when your face is far from phone and deactivates when your face is close to the phone.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Version 1.03 has no ad! Available in the Market.
[Android Apps and Games] DMM88:
Does this app boost in-call audio?

I'm getting an force close on Zte Blade ColdfusionX
[Android Apps and Games] overground:
If this would (or a way could be found) to route all audio to a mono bluetooth headset (non-A2DP), that would be awesome.

Anyone tried it?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
This won't do it, but email me and we can try to figure out if it can be done.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I posted 1.04 in Google Play which lets you set a maximum value for the speaker boost.

Also, for users with an Epic 4G Touch, there is an option to almost silence your camera. (This is done by equalizing the sound to the lowest possible level and then routing it through the earpiece while the photo is being taken.) There is a small chance that this will work for some other Gingerbread devices--I would be grateful for test results. If you'd like me to make this feature work on your device, use Android Log Collector (google) to send a log to arpruss at gmail dot com, indicating what device you have. I only want to support popular devices, though, to avoid bloat.

[Android Apps and Games] Nathan-NL:
How can you check if your earpiece is damaged?

If you can't check, is it plausible that the Nexus 4 earpiece is damaged the volume to too high levels for a few seconds?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Signs of damage: no sound, scratchy sound, smoke, burning smell.
[Android Apps and Games] Nathan-NL:
And the scratchy sound would be really obvious?

Because when making phone calls the call quality isn't the best at times, but I guess this is normal and many people with a Nexus 4 have noticed this? Especially at the higher volume levels.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I wouldn't know. I haven't damaged any of my devices this way, but then I've been pretty conservative in the settings.
[Android Apps and Games] AllEyezOnMe:
is it possible to get an update with a feature that allows music to be played back both through the speakers and earpiece? or is this app discontinued?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I doubt it can be done.
[Android Apps and Games] AllEyezOnMe:
ok thanks for your fast reply

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindcsrusher:
Hello!

While trying to install S2E i managed to partially ruin the functionality of my phone. I have an HTC Desire (GSM) running Cyanogenmod 7.1 stable release. I have S-off, root and ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0.

(I wanted to install a new SD card. In the process I managed to loose all my previous SD card data and I only have a 2 months old back-up from when I was running a different android version, so that will not be very helpful at recuperating many things, but even without the old SD card my phone was still operating correctly besides being unable to run the apps installed on the card. I presume this issue is unrelated to my current problem.)

Here is how I've think I've broken the phone:

- I used Gparted to format a new 8 GB microSD card (class 6) with 1 GB ext4 partition and a FAT32 partition.

- I installed S2E and checked all the options for the OS to use the external storage on the SD card partition.

- It turned out that my partition was not correctly identified by the OS (probably the issue was with using the built-in card reader of the laptop and not a stand alone USB card reader).

- I booted into Recovery Mode and re-formated the SD card with 1 GB of ext3, 32 GB of Swap and the rest as fat.

- After the restart the boot process took a very long time. When the OS finally booted I practically had a fresh install with none of my old settings available (shortcuts, wallpaper, apps etc.). Even the apps stored on the local memory disappeared (S2E, ROM manager, gmail, market etc.) and my home button no longer works. I am unable to receive phone calls since the phone automatically rejects incoming calls. I see incoming calls in the call log and I can make outgoing calls.

I presumed the issue is with mounting the sd-ext partition, but even if I tried to manually mount it after boot I see no change.

I followed these guides to install parted and use 32fsck to see if the partitions are corrupt. I think I have no problems.

Here are the code reports of running parted:

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

Here is my fstab as well:

/dev/block/mtdblock3 /system yaffs2 rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /sdcard vfat rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /sd-ext ext3 rw

I presume that a fresh OS install will fix the issues. However I hope I can recover the settings stored on the ROM if I fix the sd-ext partition issue.

I will appreciate any suggestions you might have.

ps: adb push and fstab pull is working only when phone is in Recovery. If the CM7.1 is booted there is no fstab in /etc.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sumatie:
Had a similar issue sometime ago. Sorry to say couldn't fix it. In fact I would say the amount of time you spend trying to fix that issue will outway a fresh install.

If you can do a full backup still and save it to your pc you could do a fresh install and work on the issue without loss of phone functionality. Just my thoughts...:cool:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindcsrusher:
Thanks for your advice!

I ended up going for a fresh install with CM7.1 and S2E.

Thinks are ok now the only problem I have is that I don't see the 1 GB of available space reported correctly. Something like 152 MB is free and a negative value is reported as the used space. The CM option of using expanded internal storage is dimmed but I am not sure if that should be different.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sumatie:
No problem. Glad you sorted the issue.

I know with a2sd using standard settings won't show the true size of the parition wont be reported. Something to do with the way it works. If it's working well and letting you install apps with no problems I wouldn't worry too much about :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] rrroach:
Hey guys,

I'm interested in the Amaze and I've got some questions! I currently have a G2x and am pretty disgusted that it's reached its EOL status already even though it's more than capable of running ICS. Besides, the battery life was just awful (can't make it through 2 whole days) and I like the larger screen, better processor, and more RAM of the Amaze.

Since it's by HTC, I can assume that when Jelly Bean comes along, the Amaze will be receiving it officially, right? If not, has there been any history with getting the drivers that are needed to do unofficial development? There are lots of unofficial ICS ROMs for the G2x but there's no hardware acceleration and the battery life is terrible on those (can't even make it through a single day).

How's the battery life on the Amaze? How many days of use can you make it through without having to charge the device? As long as its like 1.5 days I'll be satisfied. I just don't want the "15% of battery remaining" messages if I just charged the device the night before.

It has a Micro SD card slot, right?

Would I need a screen protector or is the screen very scratch-resistant?

Any other problems I should know about that are common with the phone? Please be HONEST! lol.

Thanks, brosephs!
[HTC Amaze 4G] shuvarts:
I have no idea on the official update.

For me, 1.5 days is the maximum for battery life. But, it usually is enough for a day in general (except when I use lots of GPS and play games).... YMMV though (some people claimed they get the phone up for 2 days)

Yes, it has micro SD card slot.

Just go get a screen protector... Better be safe than sorry :D

Some common problems can be found in this forum... The most popular one is: light bleed!!!

Honestly though, the reason I get the Amaze is because I was able to get it for a relatively cheap price (compared to samsung s2, etc) and the better camera :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spastic909:
First off and take it how you will, but most of the info you are looking is on the spec list.

Battery life on any large screen device won't last 1.5 days with heavy use.

Haven't these same questions been asked a billion times?

Cheers
[HTC Amaze 4G] rrroach:
Not really; I was confused about the SD card slot b/c I did see it on a few spec sheets but in a couple video reviews there was no mention of one and I didn't see one. Thanks for the battery info though.

[HTC Amaze 4G] rrroach:
Really? That's exactly the kind of answer I was hoping I wouldn't get. Oh well. At least you guys have ICS lol. I don't want to buy new so that I can save some money so the SGS3 is out of the question. It's basically either stick with the G2x until the prices on even better phones drop, or buy the Amaze and deal with the battery issue. I won't mind terribly if I don't get more than a day's use out of it. All I really do is check the news in the morning and text a few times throughout the day and then check some sites, browse some forums, and watch some videos in the evening. I think it'll be alright for that kind of use.

About the Amaze. WIFI calling issues, er05 common. Nice scratch resistant screen. The devs that take good care of us are working hard at picking up all the slack that Tmobile and HTC left with issue. I own one as my daily phone. using speedrom as my daily driver. Jellybean is not going to be on the Amaza as a OTA. We were lucky to get ICS. White one is out of stock and Tmobile told me they are done. I enjoy the phone cause of replaceable batt, ext. sd card, screen and camara.

Just one persons opinion
[HTC Amaze 4G] rrroach:
Aww. I want a relatively cheap, used phone with a 4.3" display, official ICS, and 1GB of RAM but i guess it doesn't exist! :(
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I think it's a great device, coming from the galaxy s2 and galaxy nexus, battery life isn't the best, but I get a days worth, the camera is pretty awesome, what I liked was the camera buttons, I wanted my sd card, reason why I jumped ship from the Nexus. So as I always say, it's all down to personal preference.
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
Man... If that's all u want... The Amaze is prolly your best bet. Now is perfect time to buy. It's value is half of what it was when it was released and is twice as nice as it was then. I love the phone, its just already dated. If u can get it for

It's the best phone with its specs imho
[HTC Amaze 4G] Goten310:
I would stay saw too sorry to say. It is a great device and I still don't regret choosing this over the GS2. Great hardware for the future and the few ROMs and Devs that we are lucky to have are fantastic. But for a more "fun" device to tinker with... I would wait for something better or get a device that has global support and the devs to back it up.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rrroach:
Yeah I'm probably gonna wait unless for some freak reason the Amaze gets AOSP or CM9 or Sense 4.0. Thanks everyone!

Lol. It's gonna be at least a year until that falls into my price range for now. I'll stick with my G2x and MIUI for now. I just really wanted ICS and some spec bumps while i was at it. :/ Maybe I'll consider the HTC Sensation depending on how the 'lite' version of the Sense 4.0 ROM turns out.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Amaze>G2x and all it's bugs.

Take that from someone who's used both of them.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rrroach:
I agree. However the better specs of the Amaze are not worth the additional $100 to me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
As I said, personal preference, for me the following are worth getting the amaze for compared to the G2x:

Better Camera (wayyyyyyy better camera, this thing is amaaaazing, pun intended)

Faster processor and faster phone over all.

Better design and solid feel.

FM radio, unlike the g2x which has fm radio but tmobile had it disabled.

More internal memory 16GB>8GB, like really, that's obvious.

faster data speeds 42mbps>21mbps

Should I say more?
[HTC Amaze 4G] stevedebi:
With ICS battery isn't so bad, but you need to be aware that the large screen eats up the battery. I get 18 hours to 1 day, but I don't have a heavy usage. I carry a spare battery (two in fact, because my case has that kind of room), just in case. But I've seldom had to use it since ICS came out. With heavy use you may not get through the day on a single screen. But at least you can swap out batteries (unlike the One S).

The MicroSd card is under the battery cover, which is why it isn't seen from the outside.

The phone is the best I've owned. I'm using NRG ICS, which is snappy and really nice.

It will not get Jelly Bean from T-Mobile. Maybe XDA will be able to port it, but don't count on that.
