I too have applied the changes to the AUDIOGAIN(x) and have noticed little change in the earpiece volume. Which tweaks in specific can be changed? (i.e. earpiece uplink, receive uplink?)

Can it be adjusted to DD from CC ? I ask because i actually have no idea what the letters mean.

Many thanks for any help.

I'm using a Tmobile MDA (US)

im using phm reg edit

my receive uplink volume is at 18. when i click on "modify binary data"..its by default on value type=reg_binary

do i just type in "CC"over the 18 since i cant type it in lower case?

handsfree mic volume

Hi, I am using Jabra BT620s handsfree, have the same problem with low mic gain. I put in every AUDIOGAIN(x) key new HANDFREE_UPLINK_VOLUME parameter with FF value. Mic sounds better now in my opinion, could anybody else confirm if mic volume increased in other BT handsfree?

Re: handsfree mic volume

i've also increased HANDSFREE_UPLINK_VOLUME, i guess volume's better, i can hear people well and i don't have any complaints from others. i'm using Siemens HHB-600 headset.

Re: handsfree mic volume

I was thinking about HANDFREE_, not HANDSFREE_. But it is good if HANDSFREE_ key works too. I have tried with HANDFREE name because there are some CARGHANDFREE... keys so I decided to make new key with similar name :)

Update: I guess HANDFREE_UPLINK_VOLUME parameter allows to control mic volume (uplink) on hands-free devices, HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME is dedicated to headset. My Jabra works as hands-free device (this functionality is on the feature list), changing HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME value did not change its mic gain. On devices with headset functionality mic gain should be controlled with HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME I guess.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] eva_d:
Re: handsfree mic volume

you're right, i meant HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dr11:
Re: handsfree mic volume

I have tried with HANDSFREE_UPLINK_VOLUME but it is not wotking.

So my solution to increase mic volume when hands-free device is used, as I have post before, is add binary HANDFREE_UPLINK_VOLUME parameter with FF (max) value.

I put this parameter in every \HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN(x) key.

Mic range increased and my voice is louder on other side when I am using Jabra hands-free.

Audiogain Settings too High?

These audiogain adjustments seem way too high. After making the recommended changes and powering down the phone I noticed horrible results. I had audio feedback problems while talking on the phone. BT headset audio distortion made it impossible to hear anyone. Audio playback on MP3s was overdriven. I find it hard to believe that an almost 800% increase in some of these audio settings makes any sense.

(Like "RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex: from 18 to CC !!) I have had much better success just slightly tweaking these numbers. Hear is what I have done that seem to work.

EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:21

EXTERNAL_RECORDING_GAIN"=hex:16

HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:16

INTERNAL_RECORDING_GAIN"=hex:06

RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:20

SPEAKER_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:13

All other settings are at factory default

FYI: It appears that powering down the phone after making these registry changes is required in order for them to take affect. Don’t know why …maybe the audio hardware registers are only initialized on a power-up.)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] guyver2077:
Re: Audiogain Settings too High?

Did those settings improve your speaker phone voume or quality? Also have you made any adjustments to speaker phone. Mines still sounds like crap
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lotech:
Re: Audiogain Settings too High?

I’m still experimenting with the settings. I do not use speaker phone very often (mostly BT800) I don’t think you will ever get “great” sound quality out of this phone. Raising “SPEAKER_UPLINK_VOLUME” from 10 to 13 seems to make an improvement.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] guyver2077:
Nice. Did you apply these setting to all the audio gain directories? i.e. 0,1,2
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] eboy44:
if i just wanted to make my ringtones and the music that i play in mediaplayer LOUDER how would i do that?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lotech:
I think I’m going to setup some specific tests & isolate the primary audiogain settings & functions.

For guyver2077; Yes I did apply the changes to all directories

& for eboy44; Increasing meadiaplayer output will be part of my tests.

FYI: If you have a ringtone that you like but the audio level is too low try adjusting it in a .wav file editor and saving it back into the phone.

Please help us out! :)

Any experts out there, please check this similar thread:

There are many of us with Bluetooth headsets, who cannot get the mic volume anywhere near what is needed to carry on a conversation. People on the other end just cannot hear us.

Take a look at the thread - we've tried a lot of the suggestions here if not all of them. Hope someone is able to be our saviour :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] halfsoul:
Anyone map them yet?

Did you (or anyone else) ever figure out the mapping of these registry keys? It seems like a lot of people want to change different volumes to different levels, so it would be nice to have them isolated to their appropriate keys.

Assuming each audio point has its own volume control, there are eight things to map, right?

1. BT mic volume

2. BT speaker volume

3. Phone mic volume (normal mic)

4. Phone stereo speaker volume (speakerphone, ringtones, mp3's, voice command, etc.)

5. Phone mono speaker volume (normal in-call, between the status LED's)

6. Handsfree mic volume (wired)

7. Handsfree stereo speaker volume (ringtones, mp3's, etc.; wired)

8. Handsfree mono speaker volume (normal in-call; wired)

<7 & 8 might be linked, I don't know>

So what someone needs to do is change each key individually (defaults shown) and see what gets affected above:

EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME = 19

EXTERNAL_RECORDING_GAIN = 16

HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME = 13

INTERNAL_RECORDING_GAIN = 06

RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME = 18

HANDFREE_UPLINK_VOLUME = *new key

And here's the registry location (for those who don't use search):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > HTC > AUDIOGAIN

Please make corrections/additions/discoveries as appropriate.

My first post is a simple, yet tremendous, thank you to eva_d. Changing the Audiogain, Audiogain0, Audiogain1, and Audiogain2 settings completely transformed the quality of my telephone calls. I spent a great deal of time testing the quality from my 8125 (as well as from our home phone calling my wife speaking into the 8125), and I have to say the difference is like night and day. Cheers.

One small suggestion

You can rip your songs with a ripper software that allows you to increase the volume (like 600%) at the same time. However, be aware that in this case noise will be amplified too.

FreeRip is what I'm using, here:-

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] baekhorangee:
Here's my experience with this tweak,

I changed AUDIOGAIN, AUDIOGAIN0, AUDIOGAIN1, AUDIOGAIN2 \ EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME, RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME, SPEAKER_UPLINK_VOLUME all to "CC" value instead of the original value and noticed alot of difference in my system volume for speaker phone and etc. I use voice command and after the reg tweak, voice recognition wasn't working so well so I reversed the RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME back to 18. I usually don't get complaints regarding that they can't hear me anyways...I still want to see if I can get a louder volume during normal phone calls through the device.

My question is:

EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME value controls what?

RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME value controls what?

SPEAKER_UPLINK_VOLUME value controls what?

BT Headset Volume

When I changed the HEADSET_VOLUME_UPLINK to CC from 13, my phone speaker is louder but it doesn't sound very good, like it's too loud or something. And also the other party said that my voice is crackles. So I had to change it back to 13 and it sounds better now.

Actually everything works properly, I have no problem with the Internal volume but I do have a problem with my BT Headset where the sound is too low when I'm outdoor and I'm looking for a way to make it louder by doing the reg tweaking.

Most of the times when I'm outdoor using my BT Headset (Motorola HS850). I have to press the headset towards my ear to hear properly, the InCall Volume in my phone and my headset are set to the highest already.

So, which entry do I have to edit to make my BT headset louder?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS: I'm using Dopod 818Pro, A.K.A Qtek S200

PS: I haven't done anything to the EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME but I will change it to CC and see if it's going to be louder or not.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fluxist:
OK Here it is.

This app will allow you to adjust the volume of the phone mic (the volume of your voice during calls). Just copy the exe to the device and run it. This version may require the .Net CF but the final version will not. It was tested on a Cingular 8125.

This is essentially a testing version. I made the two sliders independent for in order to isolate what the different keys change (RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME vs. HEADPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME), which I haven't gotten around to yet.

Change the values and hit apply. A messagebox will spit out the hex value of the numbers (again, this is a testing version). Exit the app and hold down the Power button to power-off and preserve the registry changes.

The app i uploaded only adjusts the volume settings for the two registry keys that affect the volume of your voice during phone calls. It would be fairly easy for me to extend it to have sliders for all the internal volume/gain settings. It would be nice tho if someone produced a definitive description of what each one did.

And you need to reset the device before the changes take effect (As far as i know). Hold down the Power button to write the reg changes and reset.

On another note, does anyone know how I might be able to add these sliders into the systems own volume sliders? So like instead of getting two, you get my third (or more) slider there too?

Back in November, Fluxist provided a program to allow in increase in mic volume. There doesn't seem to be any development since then and no one has commented if it works with the BT headset. I have an 8125 as well and a Motorola H700 headset. I routinely have people asking what I'm saying while I'm using the headset. I may not be a volume issue as I have been told I sound muffled, but the volume was fine (thus speaking more loudly in the phone only annoyed the person on the other side even more). Does Fluxist's program or the registry hacks made on this thread increase the sound or the sensitivity so that words can be understood when using a BT device?

Ok, i've been fiddling with this for a few hours now.. My initial volume settings where way too high!

I've tried changing the HKLM\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN(x)\ settings.

I tried making some radicale changes like changing values to CC, DD, 99, 00 or 01 and each time turning on and of the device to initialize the new settings. I tried changing settings in all the audiogain(x) folders just the audiogain (without the number) folder and till now I found these results:

lowering

the "eac_gain_headset" setting will lower volume of the headset (not bluetooth just normal microjack earplugs)

increasing

this setting too high (I tested 99) resulted in same volume as 00. so don't put this setting too high!

increasing

the "codec_gain_headset" seting wil lower headset volume.

You

only

have too change the settings in the audiogain (without the number) folder. I have no idea why the other folders exist..

same results can be found for the "eac_gain_embedded" and "codec_gain_embeded" settings to increase/decrease internal speaker volumes.

All other settings

e.g.: speaker_uplink_volume, earphone_uplink_volume, etc.

don't have any effect

on outcomming volumes. Maybe they effect the mics volume, I don't know.

Unfortunately their is alway a certain amount of

background noise

when playing a sound. this noise is always on the same level. decreasing gains don't effect the noise level.. too bad because that is what i was trying to do. Any hints for me how too get less noise?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] scolopendra:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] scolopendra:
Now I just wanted to make a phonecall and it was pretty much impossible, the internal microphone was way too sensitive! All I heard was feedback beeping. aargh..

So trying to find what caused this i found the following:

after restoring a an old backup everything was ok

before restoring, my "recieve_uplink_volume" was accidentally set to 13 instead of 18.

setting "recieve_uplink_volume" back to 13 instead of 18 in all audio gain folders, reintroduced the feedback!

so setting a lower value to "recieve_uplink_volume" will

increase

mic. sensitivity!

This time it does have to be done in all audiogain* folders...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] freeyayo50:
I think the hiss we are getting is from the sound being amplified before it gets pushed out from the speakers. If you've ever used an audio editing program before and amplified an audion clip you would get a hiss. That being said, there is no way of getting rid of the hiss when you are increasing the sound for the speakers.

Thanx for finding that out about the mic sensitivity.

I think im going to go back to testing out the volumes.
