The sound system

The sound on my tablet was working/ worked yesterday. (Are both "was working" and "worked" correct?)
Today I'm playing this audio and it's bearly hearable although I've set /set the maximum volume. (Are both "I've set" and "set" correct here?)
I went to the settings (clicked the settings icon and then turned the high frequency amplifier on. I hope it works.
There's an option with speakers too but I don't have an adapter cable with me now.

Corrections

The sound system

The sound on my tablet was working/ worked yesterday.

“Was working” here sounds more natural. It’s the past continuous tense.

(Are both "was working" and "worked" correct? )

I think “worked” sounds a bit off. Either it would be: “had worked”, where something happened and the action is complete, or you can use “was working”.

Today I'm playing this audio and it's bearely hearaaudible, although I've set /set/even though I have set it to the maximum possible volume.

(Are both "I've set" and "set" correct here? )

I went to the settings (clicked on the settings icon and then turned the high frequency amplifier on). I hope it works.
There's an option withto use speakers too but I don't have an adapter cable with me nowright now to be able to do that.
