Help Quiet speakers kitkat

Once you see the triangle warning sign you press vol up and power at same time, then it brings you to a screen where at the bottom of the list it says to wipe cache partition, power button selects it then you hit restart phone with power button also.

Not sure why you are having issue, but just follow the steps it should work fine.

Im just still worried im gonna have to do this randomly or if its a one time thing, time will tell i guess.

Hmm ok that's interesting I guess I wonder why you could then

Don't hold power and volume up for more than a second or two and then release. If you keep holding them down your phone will restart.

Yea man it didn't work I just tried it

I may have found a possible fix, turn off fastboot first
1. Power off phone
2. Hold down power and volume down until you're in hboot
3. Go down to the recovery option using volume to choose and power to select
4. You will reach a screen with a warning type symbol
5. Quickly press volume up and power at the same time to get into recovery
6. Go down and select wipe cache partition
7. Reboot phone

Let me know how it works, it seems to have worked for me

Thanks I finally got into recovery I did those steps but I appear to be the only one who it did not work for. Any reasons why?

I was having the same trouble. At the warning screen I finally had success by pressing the volume button slightly before the power button. That got me to the menu that had "Wipe Cache Partition"

Hope this helps!

Ok guys I have a question. When you got to the wipe cache and were able to fix your speakers, were they the same sound quality that you had all the way back in jelly bean?

Yes. Same quality, same volume.

While we're on the subject of sound quality, I use Poweramp as my preferred music player. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer&hl=en It has a really great equalizer built in, with customizable presets that can be associated with either the stereo speakers, or a headset, or a bluetooth device, or some combination. There are probably other music players out there that have a descent equalizer, but the point is that there's some room for improvement over the stock sound.

I chose to boost some of the lower frequencies and turn down the midrange. The end result is a less "tinny" and warmer sound. In a sense, the device sounds like it's larger than it is.

For those of you having trouble getting through this, try the following. On step 5, instead of trying to press both buttons at the same time, do this:

holding down the volume up button, tap (short press) the power button.

Ok then I just can't seem to get that jelly bean quality back. Also I don't think poweramp has lyrics as well does it?
