what...the notifications sounds and ringing?

Speaker wise or in the sense it whispers sweet nothings to you?

Try with the app Volume+ and setup to +8 or +9

 

[jas o]

Volume+ did almost nothing for my nexus s.

I am actually considering returning the phone tomorrow because of this issue. I have missed multiple calls and messages because I can not hear the damn phone when I'm 15 feet away in another room. I have never had this issue before. Volume+ FREE had zero effect on my phone.

 

[ylomnstr]

Volume + Free didn't do anything for min either. Except after a few minutes of having it installed, suddenly my volume is louder. I'm assuming they'll send an update to fix this hopefully, but volume + will do fine for now. Other than that, I LOVE this phone.

there's a little more detail about using Volume+, the free vs. paid version, and getting it to work here: Speaker volume is too quiet on galaxy nexus? - xda-developers

 

[credo]

Same here. I've missed several calls. Also, using the speaker phone is useless. I can't hear the person. With all the delays, Samsung or Google couldn't find time to deal with this issue?

My first android...what a joy!

Mine is too quiet also. I did install volume+ paid version and am not getting any louder volume on the ringer.

I have the Verizon GN, and Volume+ works perfect and makes a HUGE difference.

I outright bought the app because I figured 15 minutes was enough time to tell if it worked, so I don't know if there's a free vs paid issue for you guys saying it doesn't work.

My Volume+ Settings:

Speaker Settings (this is the phone speaker)
-Speaker Modifications enabled
-Volume Level: +15

Headset Settings (this is the headphones)
-Speaker Modifications enabled
-Volume Level: +9 (audio gets blown out and distorted past there for me)

Bluetooth Settings (any audio bluetooth connected)
-Speaker Modifications enabled
-Volume Level: +4 (could probably go 2-4 higher)

I just installed different ringtones that were encoded with the volume gain set higher.

I don't think it's the phone. It's the audio files themselves. Install Zedge and go through the ringtones, and you'll hear a huge difference in volume level.

read on XDA anything higher than +11 it stops working. Anyone else notice?
Also the paid version is the way to go.

When I installed it yesterday I put the headphones at max. There was a definite difference. It may be channel-specific (bluetooth, headphones, speaker).

shouldn't have to pay for something that should work adequately out of the box

Equalizer works better, had the same ish on the Sensation4g.

The paid version of Volume+ ($1.62) worked miracles for me.
