How to convert sound decibel (dB) measurements to a common loudness scale?

I'm using Android IP Webcam as a sound sensor to monitor environmental noise levels in an interior room. It is outputting values in the 135-230 dB range where ~135 dB is dead-of-night, everything off, and ~230 is loud action scene in a movie being played. I need to convert these values to something meaningful for common loudness levels. What formula should be used to make that conversion?
