VOLUME BOOSTING SOUND (Very Loud)
I have been running this mod since ICS. It seems to work on every system I've tried it on.

Yeah that great but how we do do for reset the level of sound because now it is very distorting .

Maybe I'm crazy, but my x10 in-call volume is just fine (and I've got a slight hearing loss!). I've played with some kernels and seen some performance increases, looked at even more, but they all have had the "fix" for increasing in-call volume.
Can anyone recommend kernels for unlocked BL, stock rom, without the in-call volume increase? I have been using TEAM rom and really like it.
I have used TEAM v3 ThKernel and really liked it too (on TEAM ROM of course) except I need to have the phone call part be good for me even if I don't use it often . I tried several DoomKernels but they not only had the raised in-call volume issue but also seemed sluggish when loading/coming back to home (even after days).
Or if there's a fairly easy way to reverse the in-call volume increase, I'd be willing to give that a shot too.
Thanks in advance!
Am I really the only x10 owner out there that doesn't want blasting loud to the point of distortion in-call volume? Seriously. The in-call volume is fine and I don't need it to sound like a quiet distorted speaker phone.
There's lots of nifty kernels out there: Doom, Th, etc... I've tried and enjoyed some and everything but the phone function itself is great but I still need functional phone calls! (... it IS a phone after all). I'd love to be able to use kernels without having to have distorted loud sound on the in-call volume but I've yet to find one. Please if anyone knows of a kernel that doesn't mess up the in-call volume.... PLEASE let me know about it.
Thanks in advance.
Phone info: Unlocked BL, TEAM 3.9 ROM, Go Launcher Ex (not that I think this all matters cause it's been the same with every kernel/ROM even before I unlocked BL and tried various ROMS)... but that's been my setup for a few weeks now.
My satnav voice isn't nearly as loud as it used to be on Gingerbread.
I typed Service Mode number *#*#197328640#*#* into the keypad and some menus came up. When I clicked on '[5] Audio' nothing happened, so I think samsung must have locked it?
I've installed the VolumePlus 1.7.0apk, enabled Speaker Modifications, increased the volume level to +8, increased the EQ settings Volume Level to max, but it makes no difference to satnav, or music, volumes are still the same.
edit: ah, I've seen this on the play site "A Cyanogen Mod 7 or MIUI ROM is HIGHLY recommended. Running this app on a Stock ROM/Kernel may result in it not working, being far too quiet, or getting even quieter."
I'm on stock ROM. Any other volume apps for stock ROM?
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to avoid problems with sound quality at high volume levels. I noticed strange sound artifacts (high quality headphones)
so i decided to test with udial-sample (you can find it on hydrogenaudio forums) and with maximum volume sound is very distorted (It was not present in original firmware).
Another question - which library is responsible for sound resampling and how to configure it (resample method)?

I bought my Galaxy S3 (UK version) when they first came out, but recently had to have the motherboard replaced under warranty due to the phone suffering from Sudden Death.
Before the repair, the audio output via my earbud headset was perfect, but now I'm getting a persistent and annoying low-level background hiss. This is not affected in the slightest by the volume control - even at the lowest volume setting the hiss is still present at the same level. It lasts for about 4 seconds after audio playback has finished, and then stops with a slight click/pop as the audio circuit shuts down.
You can also hear it from the rear-panel speaker if you put it close to your ear and perform any action which causes a noise to be generated - e.g. keypress clicks or the notification tones when you press the volume rocker (just make sure volume is set low first though, as that speaker can be loud when you've got your ear up against it!)
I've done some checking and it's definitely hardware related - nandroid restoring my old ROM doesn't make any difference. It is really annoying when I'm listening to music at night in bed, usually at the lowest volume setting, as the hiss is much more noticeable without other ambient noises to drown it out.
There were a number of reports of similar issues last year but not everyone seemed to be affected, and the threads all seem to have dried up now. I'm wondering how many 'original' S3 users have this problem, versus more recent purchasers? I've added a poll, just to see how widespread this issue is - please treat any phone where the motherboard has been replaced for Sudden Death issues as a 'recent' phone.
And how do I go about getting it fixed if the current motherboards all seem to have the same fault? Is there any low-level firmware setting to reduce the physical gain of the internal audio amp circuit, as it does seem to be happening in the final stages of audio output rather than in the software-controlled stuff? I'm not worried about losing the top end of the volume range, I use bluetooth for more amplified playback anyway.

Background hiss / noise no and thats from one of the very first SGS3 .
But a fair number of the sound mods do add noise .
>>>is is not affected in the slightest by the volume control - even at the lowest volume setting the hiss is still present at the same level. It lasts for about 4 seconds after audio playback has finished, and then stops with a slight click/pop as the audio circuit shuts down.<<<<
That has been well posted up on XDA hiss + pop click on shutdown as you said long time ago .|Not seen any user posting really since those threads died . Most are just looking for more loud or more boom boom .
A number of kernels now have sound adaptations .

Yeah, I first put it down to some sort of audio mod in the ROM that I had installed, so I nandroided back to the vanilla JB that was in the phone when I picked it back up from repair, and even back to my older ICS stock ROM (which had no audio mods at all) and they were all exactly the same.
Sound tweaks are all going to effect the source sound digitally, before it hits the analogue amp stage, and I suspect it's the final analogue stage which is generating the interference.
I don't care for lots of volume or boom boom (and anyway, I have amplifiers or car audio for that) but I do want my original lovely hissless audio quality back...

Do you still get the hissing with a good sound enhancing kernel (such as boeffla)? If you do, sounds like you have a hardware problem

Ah, I didn't know some kernels were better than others for noise reduction. Although I'm not so interested in 'enhancing' per se, more reducing! But the problem I'm getting is not effected by the volume controls at all, the hiss remains constant whatever any of the level sliders are set to, just as long as the audio circuits are enabled.
The ROM I'm currently running is Omega AOKP v7.0, which is based on AOKP JB 4.2.2 milestone-1 and stock kernel. Is there a suitable kernel compatible with that which might help me does anyone know? (boeffla isn't as far as I can tell)

My SGS3 is about 9 months old, and I have this too. However, in my case the background hiss is at an extremely low level - to all practical intents it's inaudible. Certainly not enough to be annoying, even in the quietest of environments.
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.
