Hey all,
This was about 2 years ago, but I upgraded my base 4" to the Sync3 system, and it went unbelievably smooth. Shoutout to @HextallS550 for all the help!
However, the volume (on calls especially, but all aspects) is CRIMINALLY low.
I know a lot of people have experienced the issue where the volume "resets" itself after powering off then on, but this is a separate issue. All volumes on devices and in-call, etc are confirmed maxed-out, and still pathetic.
When I crank the volume all the way to 30 (max) on a phone call, it is BARELY audible. This has been tested on 3 different phones, deleted and re-added, absolutely nothing changes the max volume. Same device when connected in my wife's car (2015 Flex) would blast my ears off at even close to HALF maxed volume.
I genuinely can't hold a conversation with the windows down, not because it's rude, but because just the wind blowing by is enough to completely drown out the incoming call volume. I need to turn down the A/C often times just to hear. That's ridiculous. Even the music played from my USB stick can only go so high, and certainly not to a "rock the house down" volume. I feel like the overall volume was higher with the 4" system, but obviously am unable to test the theory.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what the issue would be? I haven't gone so far as to reset the system, because I don't know if it would help at all, and I'm not sure what parts of the swap/install would be affected by a reset.
Would greatly appreciate any input or ideas you guys might have!
