Have you unlocked your phone and noticed that the volume is very low? Audio has been a problem on the iPhone up until firmware v 1.1.1 which apple seemed to address in the update, but not everyone is able to upgrade to 1.1.1 yet. Below is a guide to increase your volumes just like the 1.1.1 firmware update.
Things you’ll notice:
1). DialPad is louder
2). Speaker, Ringtone, Headset, Receiver, Speakerphone volumes are noticeable.
3). System Sounds are louder
4). YouTube video sounds are louder
Test Experiment: (Thanks stlcaddie and ReVan)
If you want to see a difference download beatphone.app listen to the pads with the volume all the way up and then apply the modded files. Now go back to the beatphone.app and listen to how loud the pads are now.
Install Instructions:
1). Download this file: iPhone Volume Fix
UPDATED file: iPhone Volume Fix with softer dialpad
2). Copy the com.apple.celestial.plist file to /var/root/Library/Preferences (Delete the two files FIRST don’t just copy them onto the phone and select the option of overwrite.)
3). Copy the SystemSoundMaximumVolume.plist file to /System/Library/Frameworks/Celestial.framework/
4). Goto Settings > iPod > (switch off: Sound Check)
5). Reboot your iPhone.
UPDATE: If you do not notice a difference try:
1). Download

put it into: private/var/preferences
2.) Reboot
Muyizo, thanks for the info……I just replaced a cracked screen on my wif’es 3G….and when I restarted everything was fine except for the volume. Speakers were fine but the earpiece was very low. The hold POWER and UP VOLUME with one hand and then move the slider when it comes up with the other hand makes it do a reboot of odd sorts, but BOOM, the volume is now back. Awesome.
benni – your suggestion was genius! I had the same problem. I picked up my phone and all of a sudden the volume through the earpiece was almost inaudible and distorted when turned up. I reset the phone by holding Volume Up and the Power button, then slid the power off slider with the other hand. The phone powered off, and when I restarted it, the volume was back to normal. Good call!
can you describe the weird reboot because i’ve followed this step and it seems to just turn the phone off and when i restart it doesn’t make a difference in the volume. So i was wondering if you could describe the “weird reboot”
Ditto the above comment. Power-off while holding volume up works.
This doesn’t work on my iPhone 3G. The indicated files don’t exist.
