Increase the sound in a Samsung smartphone with the Speaker Booster app

This works in a different way. Instead of amplifying the sound, the Speaker Booster changes the equalizer settings, which leads to an increase in sound by about 15-30%.

Using the program is quite simple. run and install the required sound, and then click “Boost”.

After that, wait until the settings are completed, and everything is ready. the sound should be louder.

In both cases, I cannot guarantee you a 100% result. Much depends on android, ROM and hardware.

However, if your speakers are too quiet, you might want to try experimenting with your phone’s volume.

Boost the sound on a Samsung smartphone with the Speaker Boost app

If you have Android 4.1.2 or higher, you can use the pretty good Speaker Boost app.

It will turn out like a slider for adjusting the sound of the speakers from any point. After launching, you will need confirmation.

There is a certain limiter in the program that will not allow you to amplify the sound above 60 percent.

I do not advise you to take risks, but your business. those who wish, who are not afraid, can experiment with different values.

To amplify the sound, move the Boost panel to the right. First, choose a factor of 20% (this is just my recommendation), and then you can gradually increase, focusing on the dynamics.

If you cannot use the application above, I recommend trying another.

2 Ways to Really Increase Sound Volume on Samsung Galaxy

Depending on your phone Samsung duos a3, a5 2017, j5, j7 2016, s8, j1 2016, j4, j2, j3 2016, a7, a8 2018, j6, s9, c8, s8, g6, c5, j8, j4, a6, s7, s6, s3, s4 mini, a7 2018, gt e2121b, gt e2121b, sm g318h, gt e1182, e1150, g530h, x 700 speaker can sound soft or loud.

As a rule, the sound is usually quiet for us, and it is hard to hear on your smartphone. How to make the speaker louder?

Immediately you should pay your attention to the engineering menu. Samsung Galaxy lacks a full engineering menu.

There are some separate functions, but through the codes, for example, I could not turn up the volume of the speakers.

Who could. share. I have chosen other methods. I will not say that we managed to amplify the dynamics by 100%, but the effect is noticeable.

The first thing I did was to tackle the applications. On the Play market, many of them promise to add volume.

Only during the test it turned out that not all work the way I wanted, and some are compatible only with some phones and Android versions.

Samsung limits the volume of speakers and headphones, but if you wish, the restrictions can be removed. see how to do this here.

How to adjust the audio volume control on a Samsung Galaxy phone

Does the sound of your Samsung smartphone not suit you? You want to fine-tune the volume, but you cannot?

You can easily improve accuracy. By default, this is no more than 15 levels, but there is a solution that increases the accuracy of loudness.

The Precise Volume program will help with this, where the sound volume can be adjusted in the range from 1 to 100.

Want to make the volume 100? No problem. Run the application and click the line (button) “Additional settings”.

It’s only a good idea to tweak the settings first, while waiting for a more detailed sound level adjustment. In options, select the two fields at the top.

• Split Ringer / Notification / System
• Accurate ringer volume

Now go back to the main Precise Volume screen and click the Show button below the volume slider to open and show all possible sliders.

Now you have 6 sliders, each of which is responsible for a different element.

• Media. is responsible for the volume of media, that is, music, films, etc.
• Call. responsible for the sound of the call.
• Notifications. responsible for the volume of notifications.
• Systems. responsible for the sound of system sounds (for example, when you touch the screen).
• Conversation. responsible for the conversation.
• Alarm clock. controls the volume of alarm sounds.

The slider can be adjusted on a scale of 1 to 100 for extremely precise volume control on your phone.

Unfortunately, the disadvantage of the app is that the precise audio adaptation is only valid in the Precise Volume app. this does not directly affect the system volume slider.

This means that every time you want to fine-tune the volume, you must launch the Precise Volume application and do it there. However, there is a way to make it easier

Configure volume profiles in Precise Volume. The application allows you to create so-called presets, that is, ready-made sets of volume settings. You can create popular profiles

• Loudly.
• Quiet.
• Music.

For each of these sets, you can adjust the volume of each slider, and then you can switch between sets with two clicks on the Samsung home screen.

As a result, it replaces the need to use the system volume slider and allows you to quickly change settings without launching the Precise Volume application. How to do it?

First go to the Precise Volume app and under the Preset Volume click Edit. A list of all profiles will appear. Click the first sample set “Sample Preset”.

At the top, change the name (eg Loud) and then click the Add Volumes button to add more volume sliders for that setting.

Select all the volume sliders and then adjust the volume of each item for the Loud profile. Save changes using the button with the floppy disk icon in the upper right corner.

You will return to the edit settings screen. Click the plus sign in the lower right corner to add a new preset. This can be called “Mute” and, for example, set all volume levels to 0%.

At the very end, you can add a music kit that you will use when listening to music.

Set it according to your preference. You can also create other presets and then switch between them. Well how to do it right?

You can use the widget on the home screen to switch between the created profiles.

Hold your finger on the Android home screen to display options for adding widgets. Add a widget named “Activate Preset”.

The speaker icon will now appear on the home screen. When you touch it, you can immediately switch between the selected profiles.

This way, you can set presets for every occasion, assign them precise volume levels, and then quickly switch between them. Success.

Manual mode

To re-tune TV channels on an already old Samsung TV model manually, without calling the wizard, you need to take into account several extremely important nuances at once:

• old models differ from new ones in a complex and incomprehensible interface, because of this problems arise;
• outdated TVs are not equipped with automatic tuning;
• old Samsung TVs are not capable of broadcasting high-definition images.

Manual tuning involves changing many important basic parameters. Sometimes this scares off users, although in fact there is nothing difficult about it, you just need to adjust the frequency correctly, you definitely cannot break the TV.

How do I tune my TV manually? Follow the simple step-by-step instructions:

• Open the main menu, and then go to the “Antenna” section.
• We select “Setting manually”. “Setting up digital TV channels”.
• Click on “Create”, as a result of which a window will open with additional indicators: purity, module, transfer.
• First you need to set the following parameters 170,000 kHz, 128 QAM and 6900 KS / s.
• The TV will tune in for a certain time while searching for channels. Images will change, and TV footage will start to appear.
• After the end, you need to click on the “Save” button, after which a window will appear for adjusting the frequency, module and transmission, leave the last parameters unchanged, but indicate a new frequency. 178000 kHz, start the search again.

By the same principle, you can continue to search for TV channels, constantly adding 8000 kHz to the frequency. Experiments of this kind can be carried out up to an indicator of 226,000.

In this way, the sound and picture quality can also be significantly improved by making them very clear. Go to the menu and select the “Image” section, and then arbitrarily adjust the clarity, brightness, contrast and other parameters.

You can also sort the channels manually. To do this, open the main menu, and then go to the “Broadcast” section. Check the boxes next to the required programs. Here you can add your favorite channels to favorites or save the current arrangement.

Locking individual channels

There are many reasons why the TV does not show certain channels, in some cases the user has blocked them. What is the purpose of this? Everything is very simple and straightforward, setting a password for TV channels allows you to block it from children. To tune channels by setting some password, follow the instructions:

• Opening the main menu.
• Select the section “Broadcast”.
• Click on the command “Lock”.
• We activate it by selecting “Enable”.
• We select the channels that you want to block, just put a tick next to them.

By default, the system locks them with the standard password. 0000. However, before saving the changes made, the TV will offer to set its own password.

If at a certain moment the need for blocking disappears, then it is very easy to cancel it, for this you need to go to the “Broadcast” section again, select “Block”, and then simply disable this function by entering the set password.
