Re: Bluetooth Volume Hack

I think it would depend a lot on your headset's ability to amplify. I'm using Pocket Player for audio and it allows you to turn up the volume and EQ the music going to your headset. The problem is that if I even attempt to adjust the preamp level higher I get clipping, which means I am maxing out the circuit. Between my Motorola HT820 headphones and the Jabra BT8010, the Jabra is louder at max volume with the same settings on the phone.

It's like when you burn a CD or MP3's sure you can crank them up but they will start to sound like crap. The problem isn't the media (in this case, RF), it's the lack of amplifcation at the other end. Look for a louder bluetooth demodulator. What you are suggesting is like calling the radio station and telling them to crank up there output to make your stereo louder.
