The volume of a smartphone is an important thing for its owner. If a conversational or external speaker produces a weak sound, this will greatly irritate a person. Meizu phones may suffer from this problem. But the situation is solvable, and every user can cope with such a difficulty. It is enough to know how to increase the volume on Meiza without harming the device.
Frequent sound problems on Meizu phones
As a rule, weak volume is observed in Meizu smartphones with a MediaTek processor . In them, the creator purposefully limited the maximum sound level when listening to audio through headphones.
And the manufacturer explained this by the need to comply with safety rules, reducing the risk of damage to the user’s eardrums.
Complaints are also received about weak main and conversational speakers. A quiet incoming call and poor audibility of the interlocutor often cause inconvenience, but it’s not difficult to deal with. No matter how Meizu products surprise with their features, it is quite possible to make them even better by adding more volume and clarity of sound.
Solution 1: make the overall sound louder through the engineering menu
You can start solving problems with volume on your smartphone immediately after considering the basic ways to do this. Listed below are 5 effective methods for getting rid of low sound in Meizu on video, during a call, in headphones, etc.
The easiest and fastest way to improve sound involves using the engineering menu. This requires:
- Click on the green phone icon to dial the number .
- Enter the code *#*#3646633#*#* (to enter the engineering menu).
These steps are required for any Meizu smartphone model. More details about the next steps for each device are written below.
For MX4, M1 Note and M2 Note
For devices with Flyme 6 and 7 shell, the procedure for changing the sound level will be simple. Having entered the engineering menu via “Phone”, you should do the following:

What is the engineering menu and how does it work?
The engineering menu is a system utility for “advanced” configuration of the operating system. The system program is built into every version of Android, regardless of the device manufacturer or software version.
As a rule, the engineering menu is used by developers to make adjustments to the device parameters at the stage of its final configuration and preparation for sale.
Also, using this menu you can test the operation of the gadget.
An ordinary user can also use the engineering menu. This does not require superuser rights or other special operating modes.
The main goal is to work with extensions and gadget settings that are not displayed in the OS interface shell.
How to open the engineering menu?
To conveniently call the engineering menu, the developers have provided a system of access codes. All you need to do is enter the desired combination of numbers and special characters on your gadget.
The menu will open automatically.
There are two ways to enter the engineering menu:
- Using code;
- Using third-party utilities.
The engineering configurations interface resembles a regular settings window . In 90% of cases, this menu is in English, so before setting any parameter, make sure that you understand which parameter you are changing. Since the menu allows you to configure more than a hundred functions, you can easily forget which window you were just working in. Be careful.
Follow the instructions to open the menu using the code:
- Open the Call . Since you dial the user's number when trying to dial, also dial the system code to call the engineering settings .;
- Press the key with the image of a handset to open settings. If you use the wrong code, the system will notify you that the attempt was unsuccessful.
Fig.6 – example of an access code
Where can I get the code? The combination of numbers and symbols differs depending on the OS version or device brand used.
The table shows the most common access codes: Gadget brand: Code:
Sony | *#*#7378423#*#* |
Huawei | *#*#2846579#*#* |
Philips, Alcatel, Fly | *#*#3646633#*#* |
HTC | *#*#4636#*#* (another option is *#*#3424#*#*, and also *#*#8255#*#*) |
Lenovo | ####1111# |
Samsung | *#*#4636#*#* and *#*#8255#*#* (depending on generation) |
Meizu | *#*#3646633#*#* |
Xiaomi | *#*#6484#*#* or *#*#4636#*#* |
Note! For all gadgets with an MTK processor of any generation, there is a single code - *#*#54298#*#* or the combination *#*#3646633#*#*.
Entering the menu using third-party software
If you were unable to access the engineering menu using the first method, or you simply do not have our code for your gadget, use a third-party utility - a program that automatically connects to the engineering menu and allows you to change the configuration of your smartphone through its interface.
One of the most reliable and popular utilities for working with the secret menu is MTK Engineering Mode . You can download and install it on your gadget completely free of charge.
Link to download the program from the official Google Play store.

Also, you can select any other program for working with engineering settings by entering the phrase “Engineering Mode” in the search field in the store.
To launch the secret menu, simply open the application. There is no need to enter any additional codes or other information.
Solution 4: Make the ringtone louder
For this purpose, a configuration scheme suitable for a specific device model is also suitable. At the same time, if after these steps the sound is wheezing , it is recommended to enter “150” instead of the value “160”.
But before using this method, you should try the standard option for increasing the volume:
- Go to “Settings”.
- Open the Sound and Vibration tab.
- Select "Volume".
- Set the desired volume (if the slider is on the right side , the sound level will be as high as possible).
- Tap the home button.

It's no secret that smartphones are used primarily for consuming content. People like to listen to music on their mobile device, but the sound quality is not always the best. Many people are interested in how to increase the volume on Meiza. This material provides options for improving the performance of the speaker system for Meizu M3, M3s, M5, M5s, M6, U10 and other models. Using the information provided, everyone will not only understand how to improve the sound, but also how to increase the volume in the headphones on Meiza.
What do you need to know to put music on Meizu?
To set the desired ringtone in Meizu phones, you can go in two traditional ways:
- Set a song for all calls;
- Play music only for a call from a specific contact in the phone book.
Let's consider each option in order. Please note that if you want to use music not pre-installed in the system for a call, but downloaded from the Internet (usually in “mp3” or “flac” format), then after downloading it, this file must be transferred to the “Ringtones” folder (path - DiskRingtones) on your smartphone. If such a directory does not exist on your phone, you will need to create it.
We put the ringtone we need on Meiza
If the phone continues to “not see” the melody you need, try also copying the music file to the shared “Music” folder.
There are several ways to set the desired ringtone for Maze calls, depending on your phone model.
Increasing the speaker volume
A multimedia speaker allows you to enjoy music, and a conversational speaker is extremely important when making calls.
If it doesn't work well enough, you may have problems understanding your interlocutor. To make a quiet earpiece louder, you need to do the following:
- Dial the command “*#*#3646633#*#*” in the dialing field, after which the engineering menu item will appear;
- Open "Hardware Testing";
- From the “Audio” item, go to “Volume”, and then to “Audio playback”;
- Click on “3/4 pole headset”;
- In the “Speaker” item, select the required volume level.
If after performing these steps the sound is still quiet, then the speaker is not working correctly and you should contact a service center.
Increasing headphone volume
This method will help in the case of a smartphone running on a MediaTek processor. These are Meizu MX4, MX5, MX6, M3s, M5s, M5 Note and others. As in the case of increasing the volume of the earpiece, you need to enter the engineering menu.
Step-by-step instruction:
- Enter the command “*#*#3646633#*#*” in the dialing line;
- Open "Hardware Testing";
- Go to “Audio” and then to “Headset Mode”;
- Set the maximum volume to the desired value.
How to set a ringtone for a specific contact on Meizu
Sometimes the user needs to set a separate song to a specific number from the list. This can be done in two ways, which we will now consider.
Method 1: Installation via list
- To set a melody to the selected contact, you must initially transfer the track to “Music” or “Ringtones”.
- On your phone, open the list of contacts and select the one you need. Then in the window that opens, click on the “Change” button and “Add field”, where we select adding a musical composition to the call for a specific phone number.
Method 2: Selecting music through the "Edit" tab
- As in the first case, you need to copy the music to “Ringtones” on your device.
- We go to the menu of the selected number, tap on the “Edit” button and “Add a field” and “Select ringtone”. The menu that opens will allow you to select the desired music.
Sometimes on Meizu, instead of the ringtone selection button, it may say “ Ringtone ”.
Increase the volume of the multimedia speaker
The method is again used using the engineering menu. It is suitable for Meizu M5s, M5 Note, Pro 6, MX4, MX5, MX6, M5c, U20 and other models. You need to do the following:
- Enter the command “*#*#3646633#*#*” in the dialing line;
- In the “Audio” section, open “LoudSpeaker Mode”;
- In the “Type” item, set the “Ring” parameter;
- In the “Max Vol” line, set the required value from 0 to 160 and click “Set”.
If the speaker starts to wheeze, it is better to try setting other values. For example, 10 points lower.
Increasing volume using Viper4Android FX drivers
If the previous methods did not answer the question of how to make Meiza louder or how to increase the sound on Meiza, then you will have to turn to third-party programs for help.
A good way is Viper4Android FX. It is designed to enhance the existing sound level. The driver file can be downloaded here (https://res.mymeizu.ru/content/application/258473460c2692fff8e384c1f72e7916/viper4android_fx_v2505_a4.x-a7.x.apk).
After the file is downloaded, you will need to open it and install the drivers.
Next, it is recommended to restart your smartphone. Now in the ViPER4Android application you need to click on the symbol with three stripes in the upper left corner and go to settings. In the “FX Compatible Mode” item, select “Compatible”. This action will combine the drivers available on the smartphone with the downloaded ones.
Now you can go to the headphone sound settings. In the main menu of the application you will have to select the “Headset” item. It is recommended to activate the values “Master Power”, “Playback Gain Control”, “FIREqualaizer”, “Headphone Surround Plus”, “VIPer Bass”, “VIPer Clarity” and “Auditory System Protection”.
For maximum volume, in the “Playback Gain Control” item you need to set the value to “Extreme”, in “Headphone Surround Plus” set the third level, in “VIPer Bass” turn the lever to the level of 8 dB, and in “VIPer Clarity” set the value to 6 dB.
Following the described steps will help to significantly increase the volume in Meizu Pop and other headphones.
This method is recommended by the Flyme OS user community and all characteristics have been carefully selected. If for some reason the sound does not suit you, you can experiment and set your own values. This will definitely help, because Viper4Android FX was created to increase and improve the sound on smartphones Meizu M3, U10 and others.
Setting music for an incoming call - step-by-step instructions for Meizu
So, in order to put some unique melody on the Meizu call, we need to follow the following instructions:
- Download the ringtone or song you need to your phone, preferably in MP3 format
- Open the folder where the file was downloaded and move it to the “Ringtones” folder. If your interface is not completely translated, then it may be called “Ringtones”. In some cases, such a folder may not exist at all, and then you need to create it.
- In the phone book, select the contact for which we want to set a melody.
- Go to the contact editing section.
- Find the “Add field” item.
- The list of suggested options will include “Set ringtone.” This is exactly what we need.
- The system will ask you to specify the path to the file that will be assigned the ringtone status for the contact. We install it, indicating the path to the previously downloaded file.
A few more third-party apps to increase volume
Of course, the list of applications that increase sound is not limited to Viper4Android FX alone. There is, for example, Volume Booster GOODEV. The program is easy to use, which makes it recommended for both smartphone experts and beginners.
After the program is downloaded to your device, Volume Booster GOODEV should be opened and read the warning about the dangers of high sound volume. If the desire to turn up the volume has not dried up, you can continue. In the “Boost” item you need to set the required value.
A hundred percent indicator will increase the existing volume of the smartphone by about 60%, which is very good.
But there is a high chance that the speaker will start to wheeze or whistle, so you need to experiment with the optimal characteristics.
Another application bears the eloquent name “Sound Booster”. It has good reviews, so the program should be considered as an alternative to Volume Booster GOODEV.
The following application also greets the user with a warning, and the volume is increased using the sliders with the “Volume” and “Gain” items. The first is the indicator currently set on the smartphone, and the second is the percentage of superiority of the program over the standard settings.
How to increase the volume on headphones?
So, you have connected the headset to your smartphone Maze M3, M5, M6, etc., but the sound is very quiet. Moreover, on the headphones themselves you set the volume to maximum. The settings also set the maximum sound power. Many owners of meizu devices encounter this situation. There is no need to despair. You can increase the sound volume as follows:
- Open the “Phone” application. Just tap on the icon with the handset.
- Instead of the subscriber number, enter the following code – *#*#3646633#*#*.
- In the engineering menu that opens, click on “Hardware Testing”.
- Then tap on the “Audio” section. In it we already select “Headset Mode”.
- Set the lowest line Max.Vol to 160. This is the maximum value.
- Finally, click Set to save the changes.
- We return to the “Audio” section, select “Headset_LoudSpeaker Mode”, where in the “Max Headset” field we again enter the value 160.
- Click Set.
- Exit the menu by tapping on the “Home” button.
However, we note that this method only works on old Maze models like mx4, m1 note, m2 note, etc. If you use m3s, m5, m5 note, m5s, U10, U20 and other models, then:
- Go to the engineering menu. To do this, you can use the same code – *#*#3646633#*#*.
- Scroll to the third page by swiping from right to left. Select "Audio" there.
- Next, click on “Volume”.
- From there, go to “Audio playback”.
- In the “Heaset PGA” line (usually located just below the “3/4 pole headset” item), enter the value 160.
- Scroll down the page and click the Set button.

How to increase the volume of the speaker on meizu?
Quite often on forums there are messages from owners of Meizu smartphones, in which they complain about the quiet sound when talking. I had a similar problem on my meizu pro 6. Even in complete silence, it was sometimes impossible to distinguish what the interlocutor told you. What can we say if the telephone conversation took place on the street, in a store or on the road.
Fortunately, a solution was found quickly. It was possible to increase the volume of the speaker through the same engineering menu.
- Open the “Phone” application. Enter the code *#*#3646633#*#* and get to the menu.
- Scroll to the third page and select “Audio”.
- Tap on the first item “Normal Mode”.
- Set the Type parameter to “Sph”.
- Next, in the Level section, enter 155 in the top line and 160 in the bottom line.
- Press the “Home” button and exit the engineering menu.
Now we check whether the volume of the speaker has changed. If not, then reboot your device. Repeat the above procedure as necessary.
For reference! You can go to the engineering menu of the meiza using third-party software. For example, MTK Engineering Mode applications.
How to put notification icons on Meizu
Notification icons are another feature that is present in iOS but not on Android devices, and it looks like a small number on the app icon that shows the number of unread notifications. Here you also need ROOT, SuperSU and Xposed.
To add notification icons to Meizu, download the latest version of FlymeTools and install it: +
FlymeTools_3.0.5_3224_rus_v1.apk
Next, we activate FlymeTools in the installed Xposed modules, just like the previous tweak, and go to it from the desktop.
In the application itself, go to “Launcher”, activate “Notifications on application icons” and customize the size, background color and font color as desired.
Now reboot the smartphone and enjoy the result
How to make the ringtone sound louder on meizu?
We finally sorted out the issue of increasing the volume in the headphones and earpiece. It remains to figure out how to fix quiet ringtone and notification signals.
First, we recommend doing the following:
- Open “Settings”.
- Go to the “Sound and Vibration” section.
- Then tap on the “Volume” item.
- Set the desired volume level for ringtones, notifications, and multimedia. We remind you that the closer the dot on the slider is to the right side, the better you can hear.
- Having configured it as necessary, press the “Home” button and close “Settings”.
If you still think that the sound is too quiet, then you can try adding volume through the engineering menu:
- As you already know, the first thing we do is enter the following combination in the “Phone” application: *#*#3646633#*#*.
- Next we find the “Audio” section. It is usually located on the 3rd tab.
- Then open the “LoudSpeaker Mode” subsection.
- Then set the “Ring” parameter in the “Type” item.
- Just below in the line “Max.Vol” we enter the value 160.
- Click Set.
- We check if the speaker suddenly wheezes when there is an incoming call, then go to the same item in the engineering menu and set the value a little lower - 150 or 155.
Changing the ringtone in the smartphone settings
This method is suitable for Meizu models: M3, M3 mini, M5, M5 note, M5c, MX5, etc. The easiest way to set the song for an incoming call is by going to the settings menu of your smartphone. Use the algorithm:
- Go to the “Sound and Vibration” section.
- Select the “Ringtones” category. (Using this function, it is possible to install standard and local sounds on a Meizu call, which the user downloaded independently onto a flash drive or dropped into the internal memory of the smartphone.)
- After choosing a ringtone, you can simply close the settings - you don’t need to save or confirm anything.
Songs are automatically sorted alphabetically, making searching easier.
Please note that in this section you can additionally adjust the volume of the song set for an incoming call, as well as media and notification sounds. If the user is interested, you can similarly change the sounds of SMS, email and other notifications on your smartphone.
Put a melody through Explorer or music player
Most players produced for Android contain a standard function for listening, cutting and installing music. This is very convenient, because a person does not need to additionally search for the melody he likes in the phone’s list of music files: set it to ring directly when listening to his favorite music. You can set a ringtone for the Meizu U10, U20, MX6, M5s and other models:
- Using Explorer or player, select the desired file and call the option menu.
- In the list of menu items we find the section “Set ringtone” or “To ringtone”.
This installation takes less than a minute and does not require additional saving of settings or restarting the smartphone. Setting a ringtone is easy; any user can do it.
conclusions
Now we can summarize. The volume of the ringtone, earpiece and headphones on the Maze is easily increased through the engineering menu. To adjust this parameter, you just need to do a couple of manipulations. The main thing is to know what to configure and not go into different sections of Engineering Mode, thoughtlessly changing everything there. After all, this is fraught with serious problems and failure of the smartphone.
