Hey guys quick question.
I have Xloud installed on my GSM Evo 3d, i've noticed a huge difference in speaker volume.
I love my headphones loud (have Volume+ and its great)
Just wondering if Louder volume hack is better for headphone volume than XLoud.
Thanks
Matt
If I recall correctly " someone correct me I'd I'm wrong" xloud is only for the external speaker and not for the internal speaker "I think" were as voulme plus allows you to adjust both internal & external. Imo if your using xloud you should disable the sound effects for the external speaker in volume plus as they might interfere with one another causing a system conflict. I use xlould for my external speaker and I use voulme plus as well on my head phones and blu-tooth. Both are great and sound excellent

I have a question about default_gain.conf. I have found many threads on how to boost volume to the headset using default_gain but from my testing this only effects music volume like pandora. My incall volume is still very low. Does anyone know the values I need to modify to adjust just the incall volume through the headset port?
Does someone know of an app that works amplifying speaker sound? I'm running Ultima rom and I can't find one that works. Volume + and Sound Booster don't work. I've Googled and still can't find one.
your best option would be boeffla kernel it makes the speakers louder also headphones and has Equalizer 2

Wondering if anyone has found a way to amplify headphone Volume any louder. On the s8+ I used the dual speaker mod that used to tweak the mixer_gains file. I've manually increased the values there but I don't seem to have noticed any difference. The volume is too low at the minute I like my music LOUD.
I find I can't lower the notification volume and ringtone volume low enough.
Does anyone know how to change the volume steps? I have sound assistant but it only works for media volume...
I'm rooted if it helps and I've tried the AOSP based rom solution of changing the build prop but with no success.
Thanks for any help!
Have you tried "sound assistant" app. It is from Samsung and has function you are looking for.

Ah my bad, don't know how I missed it. It is possible in two ways:
01- Get a custom kernel with volume modification support. I use a Galaxy S7edge with Surround sound, this makes the sound loud and more immersed but it has a drawback. The low threshold of volume is too high same as yours. I usually have a problem with the in-call earpiece audio which is too loud for me. I use MoroKernel and luckily a recent update brought the feature of MoroSound providing fine control over gains of 2-microphones, earpiece, and main speaker. You can also look for a kernel with such features for your device.
02- Manually modifying the sound configuration files. That is a bit difficult but good research with a bit of experimenting will eventually get you there.

Any chance you know how to mod the sound config files on an S21? Unfortunately there are no custom kernels yet for the Exynos version

Yes, go to /etc/mixer-gains.xml and edit it. Drawback is your device entire volume range will be affected like for media and stuff. One more way and probably the more practical one just hit me.
Find your ringtone and notification tone from /system/media/audio/ or download them from google and use a software like Audacity or Adobe Audition to reduce their volume.
You reduce your phone's volume to the lowest and match pc's volume with it. Then reduce the audio gain in the software until you feel comfortable with it. Export it and use it.
For anyone interested. My solution ended up being the following, with my end goal being too optimize my audio with Dolby and have the volume still be lower (but optimized) on the phone speaker.
I tried a ton of different apps, a few magisk volume steps modules, ViperFX with Dolby and finally I found a good solution.
Turn off the default Dolby stuff on the phone.
Install Dolby Atmos ZTE A2019 PRO for magisk (google it and find it on GitHub).
Reboot.
Install JamesDSP from ZackPTG5's website.
Reboot.
Install Audio Modification library to use Dolby and JamesDSP at the same time.
Reboot.
Create a custom equalizer in Dolby and try max things out as much as possible with it still sounding great.
Open JamesDSP, go to Speaker, set limiter threshold to -5, go to post gain and set it to -10. Turn on the master switch. Leave everything else unless you want to change any Bluetooth or headphone settings. Hide the persistent JamesDSP notification.
Reboot.
Install Audio Compatibility module with all the recommended settings.
Reboot.
Result, Dolby Atmos handles all the audio, increases the volume, applies optimizations system wide. However because volume steps are tricky to change on this phone we are stuck with the phone speaker volume being too loud even on the lowest setting. JamesDSP lowers the volume to the built-in speakers but we still get the Atmos experience we want. Everything else I assume you want to be louder anyway, like Bluetooth and headphones.
Audio Modification Library makes James and Dolby work together.
Audio Compatibility Patch fixes some issues with certain apps not using the sound mods.
Success! You get Dolby Atmos everywhere, but it doesn't max out the phone speaker volume, but it will still max out everything else. Oh and you can also change whatever other settings you want in JamesDSP.
