Sound - important characteristic any communication device, because a lot depends on it: sufficient volume allows you not to miss a call, and correct setting microphone - gives the interlocutor the opportunity to hear you loudly and clearly. But what if the maximum sound volume of your headphones, microphone or speaker is not enough? Sound settings change spontaneously, and maximum volume runs into automatic safe limit»?
There are several ways to increase the sound volume on Android: using standard means sound control, using equalizer programs, as well as through the engineering menu. But first things first.
An easy way to control the audio level on your phone
The fastest way to adjust the volume on an Android device is with the Volume+ and Volume- keys, usually located at the end of the device. They are responsible for the volume of the active mode. If you press a key on the main screen (desktop), the volume of notifications is adjusted; in a game or player, the media volume is adjusted. Most often, in the pop-up window with the volume slider, you can select “More” (usually looks like a down arrow), and adjust the volume of all possible sounds on the device.
Other settings options are available at: “Settings” menu, “Notifications” item. There are several standard sound profiles to choose from; you can change the “General” profile to suit your needs.

Setting the ringer volume Setting the volume of media effects The pop-up window can be expanded by clicking on the down arrow
In the menu, you must select “notifications.” The “Notifications” item presents basic sound settings, profiles and alert modes. The “General” profile is available for detailed settings.
On different models devices additional options sound improvements may vary The number of options, except for the device model, depends on the version of Android
In addition to the standard settings, in different versions Android can be found and others useful features: options for improving sound for headphones, increasing speaker volume, surround sound effects and others.
How to improve the quality and volume of sound using programs
Typically, Android devices have standard applications for sound control - equalizers. But if the manufacturer did not bother to add such a program, or the standard one does not meet all the requirements, download from the official store Play applications Market always has dozens of analogues available for every taste. Let's look at the main ones.
Volume Booster Plus
When you need to increase the Android volume level, but there is neither time nor desire to go into the engineering menu, the Volume Booster Plus program will come to the rescue. The lack of Russian language in the interface will not prevent you from using the program: after the first launch, the application will inform you that it will analyze the characteristics of the device and select optimal settings to enhance the sound. To do this: press the Start keys successively, Next twice, then Boost, and then wait for the setup process to complete. The result will be a window with the title Success. All! The device volume is increased by 2 by the specified percentage. You can close the application.

Increase ringtone volume using Simple EQ
For detailed sound settings, Simple EQ is one of the simplest free equalizers on Android. Increasing the volume can be achieved by controlling the frequency sliders 60 Hz, 230 Hz and others. Bass and stereo effect enhancement is also available. After the first launch, the program remains running in the background and provides the specified level of volume and sound quality in all usage scenarios.

You can download the program from official page in the Android app store - download Simple EQ Equalizer.
How to make a loud call through the engineering menu
The most advanced volume settings are available through the device's engineering menu.
Engineering menu (mode) - special service program on devices with operating system"Android". Developers use it to finalize the device, make final changes, check the operation of various sensors, and perform system testing. The same application is used to receive large quantity system information, and among other things, helps to perform fine tuning sound volume.
It is worth noting that an ignorant user should not wander around the engineering menu without a clear goal. A careless “poke” or a tick in the wrong place can both format the device and deprive the radio module of its treasured frequencies: the device will stop “catching” the Internet or making calls. But if you do everything according to the instructions and do not deviate from the letter of the manual, you can adjust the sound volume in no time.
You can enter the engineering menu using the service code or through an intermediary program - MTK Engineering Mode (only for devices with an MTK processor).
You can download the program to enter the engineering menu from a device on an MTK processor from its official page in the Android application store - MTK Engineering Mode.

Video instructions on how to increase the speaker volume:
You need to enter the service code in the dialing field (in the “dialer”), which one depends on the device manufacturer.
Table: service codes for different models of Android devices
After which the engineering menu will open. In it, by swiping from right to left, you need to go to the Hardware Testing page and open the Audio item.
Photo gallery: how to add sound using the Android service menu
There are several items in the Audio section, we will focus on the first five:
- Normal Mode - is responsible for the volume level in normal mode, without headphones or other audio devices;
- Headset Mode - operating mode with a connected headset (headphones, portable speakers and other);
- LoudSpeaker Mode - mode speakerphone;
- Headset_LoudSpeaker Mode - hands-free mode with a headset;
- Speech Enhancement - conversation mode (without a headset).
Is the music coming from the speaker not loud enough? Your choice is Normal Mode. Can't hear your interlocutor? Click Speech Enhancement. Is the sound from the game wheezing in your headphones at maximum volume? Headset Mode. And so on, depending on the circumstances.
When you have decided on the mode, tapping on it takes you to a settings page with several values.
Photo gallery: how to change the sound of a microphone, headphones, strengthen conversational and music speakers on Android
Type - the list contains the type of equipment being configured, its items mean:
- Sip - volume of Internet calls;
- Mic - microphone volume;
- Sph - speaker volume (for talking on the phone);
- Sph2 - second earpiece (rare);
- Sid - do not touch (problems are possible!);
- Media - playback volume of media files (Music, Games, Video);
- Ring - ringer volume level;
- FMR - FM radio volume.
Next is a list of volume levels - Level, usually there are seven of them. Each level corresponds to one press of the volume key. Level 0 is the quietest, and Level 6 is the loudest signal level. Here you can set your values, in the input cell opposite the inscription “Value is 0~255” (the specified limits may differ from device to device). Accordingly, the lower the value in this cell, the lower the volume. After making changes, you must click the Set button and the settings will be saved.
The bottom one in the window will be “Max Vol. 0~160", the value in the input field is responsible for the maximum possible volume, one for all Levels.
Attention! Before changing the default settings, overwrite the factory settings or save screenshots (usually a snapshot can be taken by pressing the Volume Down key and the Power key at the same time) so that if the change is unsuccessful, you can return to the previous settings. It is also highly recommended not to use maximum values: try to limit yourself to an increase of 10–20 points. Otherwise, the risk of speaker failure increases: noise, distortion, complete shutdown speaker or microphone of the device.
When you have decided on setting the required sound mode, you can close the engineering menu and reboot the device, then all changes will be applied.
What to do if the volume limit turns on - how to remove it
Some device models, as well as versions of the Android operating system, automatically limit the maximum sound volume when you connect headphones or increase the volume above a certain value, in this case, you can use the Volume Boost program or its analogue. Just install, launch, and in the Settings tab check the box next to Auto Start (this will allow the application to load automatically and always run in the background). There you can also check the box and activate the application control widget, and by placing it on the desktop, you can independently turn on and off the volume limit so as not to keep the program always active.

Eliminate spontaneous volume changes
Sometimes users encounter a rare problem spontaneous switching volume level, this can be caused by several factors:
- Most often, this problem is found in people who are too “smart” Samsung devices or HTC, as well as little-known eastern brands. First of all, in the “Settings” > “Sound” menu, you need to check the presence of the “auto volume control” item. The name may differ and contain phrases: in the case, in the pocket, on the table. If you have problems with sound, try starting by disabling such options.
- Owners of old models Samsung smartphones, like the Galaxy S4, can detect malicious settings at: Settings > My Device > Calls > Ring Loudly in Bag.
- Also, similar settings can be in the “Settings” > “Accessibility” menu and called: Smart Case, Auto Volume, Pocket Mode.
- If the device is equipped with a protective bumper or case, it would be a good idea to check whether the physical sound control keys are stuck.
But remember! If on your device, when you connect a headset (headphones, portable speakers), the message “safe limit” appears and reduces the maximum volume, this limit is set by the manufacturer for a reason. First of all, we are talking about the health of the person using the headset. Protect your hearing.
Every cellular telephone designed for its volume limit. By and large, high phone volume is only needed so that your device can be heard always and everywhere. Nowadays, only schoolchildren listen to music through the main speaker in order to demonstrate the superiority of their phone over the phones of their peers.
Our specialists can easily increase the volume limit of almost any smartphone. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us! You can contact us by mail or call one of the numbers:
Sometimes there is a need to increase the volume of the phone - in some models, for example, the call is barely audible on the street. There is a lot of material on the Internet on how to increase the volume of Android. Summarizing all the information, we can draw the following conclusions and answer this question:
- You can increase the speaker volume programmatically. Many programs have been created for the Android operating system, with the help of which the problem of increasing the volume becomes completely solvable. For example, in one of the IncreasingRing programs it looks like this:
- You can also increase the volume of your Android smartphone throughengineering menu.To call it, you need to type a special command in the call menu. IN different versions Android operating systems need their own call combination.
Here is a list of all combinations for calling the engineering menu on Android:
- *#*#3646633#*#*
- *#15963#*
- *#*#4636#*#*
By typing one of these combinations, we get access to the engineering menu, which, as a rule, is also in Russian on Russified versions of Android.
As for the iOS operating system, you can also increase the volume of your iPhone quite simply:
- Enlarge using the device buttons or using touch screen- the method is primitive, but sometimes iPhone users forget about this.
- Also, the iPhone volume is increased from the phone menu. To do this, we need to go to the Settings menu and select the Sounds sub-item. Using the touch screen you need to move the value to the right.
- If you are unhappy with all the basic standard methods and the volume of the iPhone speaker still seems low to you, then you can resort to increasing the volume by changing the system settings, however, you must be extremely careful not to affect the settings that are significant for the system and thereby not disrupt the operation of your smartphone. Go to the system folder, then follow the following path:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Celestial.framework. Inside this folder is a file called SystemSoundMaximumVolume, which contains the volume settings for the entire iPhone system. In it, the default volume parameter is set to 0.7. You need to change the value to 0.99 and reboot the phone. If everything is done correctly, you will get the desired result.

If the above procedure seems complicated and impossible to you, come to us at SmartKit, we will be happy to help.
Let's look at several effective ways to increase the volume on Android through the engineering menu.
The creators of this operating system provided for the presence of several operating modes of sound signals.
The volume of each signal depends on the connected device, the running task, or the situation in which the phone is used.
For example, the sound on a smartphone may be muffled, and when you turn on the headset, the volume may increase sharply.
If you have encountered similar inaccuracies in sound performance, We recommend performing an engineering volume adjustment. This method involves a more complex setup process, however, even beginners can master it. Main– follow all steps of the instructions in order.
Standard setting method
Android smartphone sound volume regulated by the system for each task separately:
- Incoming calls;
- Recording a voice or conversation with another subscriber;
- System sounds;
- Playing media files.
You can adjust the volume of each parameter at the software level by going to the desktop.
Using the Volume Up/Down key Try setting the desired hearing level for each of the above modes.
You can also configure audio playback and recording using the smartphone settings window. We recommend using this setup option before starting to work with the engineering menu.
It is likely that A simple volume adjustment will solve your problem:
1Open the main menu of the gadget and go to the “Settings” window;
2Find the field "Device" and click on the item "Sounds";
Fig. 2 – device settings window
3Next you need to open the “Volume” item or click on the settings icon near the “General” item- it all depends on the OS version used. If you are afraid to change the default settings, you can create a new custom sound profile by pressing the add new mode key;
Fig. 3 – selection and change of playback mode in the settings
4A new window will display all available options for which you can select a volume level. Set the desired level for each item and save the changes. If after rebooting the device these settings disappear again, repeat the action.
Fig.4 - setting up all playback modes
Note! Cause too quiet sound Incoming call or alarm can have user-set ringtones. We recommend installing a standard ringer. The fact is that custom songs are often played by the phone “increasingly”, that is, from a quieter sound to a normal one, so you don’t hear the signal.
You can often come across a bug in which changes to the sound profile are lost and the phone begins to go into silent mode without the user’s consent.
This problem occurs in Samsung and HTC. To eliminate it, it is not recommended to use the engineering menu.
It would be more effective to reset the phone to factory settings or update to the latest current version firmware.
To change the ringtone, click on the field "Ringtone" in the settings window and in the window that opens, select one of the proposed standard compositions.
To listen to a melody, click on its name. To set the setting, mark the desired track.
Fig.5 - installation standard melody call with normal sound
If you still encounter sound problems: wheezing, rustling, etc. extraneous sounds, you should move on to more serious tuning measures.
What is the engineering menu and how does it work?
Engineering menu- This system utility for “advanced” operating system configuration. System program built into every version of Android, regardless of the device manufacturer or software version.
As a rule, the engineering menu is used by developers to make adjustments to the device parameters at the stage of its final configuration and preparation for sale.
Also, using this menu you can test the operation of the gadget.
An ordinary user can also use the engineering menu. This does not require superuser rights or other special operating modes.
the main objective– working with extensions and gadget settings that are not displayed in the OS interface shell.
How to open the engineering menu?
To conveniently call the engineering menu, the developers have provided a system of access codes. All you need to do is enter the desired combination of numbers and special characters on your gadget.
The menu will open automatically.
Total exists two ways to enter the engineering menu:
- Using code;
- Using third-party utilities.
The engineering configurations interface resembles a regular settings window. In 90% of cases, this menu is in English, so before setting any parameter, make sure that you understand which parameter you are changing. Since the menu allows you to configure more than a hundred functions, you can easily forget which window you were just working in. Be careful.
Follow the instructions to open the menu using the code:
- Open the window "Call". Since you are dialing the user's number when trying to dial, dial the system code to call up engineering settings.;
- Press the key with the image of a handset to open settings. If you use the wrong code, the system will notify you that the attempt was unsuccessful.
Fig.6 – example of an access code
Where can I get the code? The combination of numbers and symbols differs depending on the OS version or device brand used. The table shows the most common access codes:
Note! For all gadgets with an MTK processor of any generation, there is a single code - *#*#54298#*#* or the combination *#*#3646633#*#*.
Entering the menu using third-party software
If you were unable to access the engineering menu using the first method or you simply do not have our code for your gadget, use a third party utility– a program that automatically connects to the engineering menu and allows you to change the configuration of your smartphone through its interface.
One of the most reliable and popular utilities for working with the secret menu is MTK Engineering Mode. You can download and install it on your gadget completely free of charge.
Also, you can choose any other program to work with engineering settings, entering the phrase “Engineering Mode” into the search field in the store.
For start secret menu You just need to open the application. There is no need to enter any additional codes or other information.
Consequences of setting
Sound problems can occur on absolutely any phone or tablet.
The reasons for their appearance and the nature of the manifestation of the problem can be expressed in different ways, but the methods for eliminating the problem are always the same.
The Android OS software shell implies an identical configuration sound card for smartphones from different manufacturers.
Differences can only occur in different firmware versions or if your device is running a custom OS from the manufacturer based on Android (for example, Flyme OS).
Every user should understand that setting up the engineering menu will not help a budget gadget sound at the same level as expensive devices.
At the same time, changing the menu configuration allows you to eliminate all sound problems and eliminate any noise that appears.
Setting all parameters of the engineering menu to “maximum” does not guarantee that you will receive best quality sound On the contrary, such a setting can significantly damage the gadget and cause hardware problems with the speakers. This occurs because the sound begins to play at frequencies that the speaker cannot use.
As a result incorrect setting, noise may occur when playing or recording sound, as well as wheezing or humming.
Increase volume
After successfully launching the engineering menu on your gadget, you can proceed to increasing the phone volume. Follow all instructions strictly in accordance with each step of the article.
Otherwise, playback quality may deteriorate.
Immediately after opening the menu, familiarize yourself with its interface.
The main window has several tabs, each of which is responsible for global settings(testing hardware components, working with the software shell, and so on).
D To move between tabs, use the left-right swipe.

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. Maximum value- 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 contact service menu, use the Volume Unlock application:
- 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.
If you are not satisfied with the volume of your device, then first you need to make sure that the sound level corresponds to the maximum.
