Still having the same issue as; here
But now I can provide a logcat which shows what's happening when I play the files, I'm not asking someone to fix this for me, I just need to understand how to analyse the files so I can get to the cause. Thanks.

So to the monetary reward, if your help allows me to fix the problem, or you fix it for me, then I'll pay you 10 quid (£), or it's equivalent in your local currency.
Hey bro I fixed it myself.
Root needed
Here is how.
If you need the original mixer_paths.xml I can provide that. You must delete the file you want to replace and not overwrite it.
So in my case I wanted the volume increase what I did was download it, overwrite my original and reboot and had no sound. You must delete the current mixer_paths.xml completely off your phone and then install the custom one.
So again to regain sound
Navigate to device, system, etc and delete the mixer_paths.xml before placing the new one DO NOT OVERWRITE
THIS WILL FIX IT, I WAS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE

Right if you can send that file over I'll give it a go. And I'm a man of my word, so if that works I'll pay out.

There you go.
Disclaimer: this is the original mixer_paths.xml from the C6806 model.
Again. With root, navigate to device>system>etc delete the original file, overwrite will not work. Place the file there and reboot your phone.
Make sure you unzip the file..

Still not working :/, possibly because it's a C6806, I'm C6833 so I'll have a look and see if I can find it for that.
Edit: Nope, still throwing exact same errors, guess we had different problems
I'd wait for someone with more knowledge to see if you can place that on there.
As for the issue this should solve it 2 days ago I was experiencing the same exact issue.
The only real option is to flash a FTF (see dev section) with flashtool (http://flashtool.net). If it is a software issue that will fix it.

One would think so. Have you tried audio over BT or headset?
I'm telling you, I had the same issue, I even made a thread.... You have to find the right mixer_paths.xml for the c6833 and place it on your phone.
My phone did the same YouTube playback error and songs not playing and shipping fast, find out who has a c6833 model and ask them to send a copy.
Now if it's not that, Idk. But I'm not sure how our phones had the same exact issue... And the method I did solved it.

mixer_paths.xml should be the same across models, and even if it's not they say thay have flashed FTFs. ie that will do a full wipe and install of the system patrition

Its possible there are multiple causes, because I never modified my mixer_paths. I've already found one for my model and tried it to no avail so I'm pretty sure its not that, I could try replacing it multiple times or something just to be sure.

So after using the Samsung Galaxy S II for over a month now I've had one complaint. In-Call Volume using the handset ear piece. It was "OK" in quiet places but anywhere else...way below par.
So, after looking around for several weeks trying to find a fix I finally got help from a well know dev (Entropy512) as well as using system/lib audio files from Designgears ROM 'Perception'.
So...how do you finally get your in-call volume increased?
First and foremost...Always backup whatever you're changing. Better safe than sorry. Just make a copy of your current system/lib folder, rename it something like 'backup_lib' and place on your sd card somewhere.
Option 1
Download this flashable zip, flash it in CWM, Reboot, Enjoy. (This zip includes some audio files from the Perception ROM, if for any reason DesignGears has an issue with this PM me and I will remove the zip. I'm only using the files to help others solve their in-call volume issue)
MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE FLASHING
Download the Flashable Update Here
I have tested this on three different SGSII's and all seems well! This is a NO WIPE flash, I do reccomend clearing your Dalvik Cache and Cache Partition though.
-Reboot into Recovery
-Scroll down to 'Advanced' and select
-Select "clear Dalvik Cache"
-Flash this update
-Reboot your phone and enjoy!
Option 2 (Incase the flash doesn't work or I am asked to remove the the zip file)
1) Download Designgears ROM 'Perception' Found Here
2) Open the zip file of your current ROM (doesn't matter what ROM)
3) Open the system folder and then open the system/lib folder (of your current ROM)
4) Next, Open the same folder in the Perception ROM
5) Copy the files listed below from the Perception ROM and paste them over the files in your ROM:
- lib_Samsung_Acoustic_Module_Llite.so
- lib_Samsung_Resampler.so
- lib_Samsung_Sound_Booster.so
- libaudio.so
- libaudioeffect_jni.so
- libaudioflinger.so
- libaudiohw_op.so
- libaudiohw_sf.so
- libaudiopolicy.so
- liblvvefs.so
- libmediayamaha.so
- libmediayamaha_jni.so
- libmediayamaha_tuning_jni.so
- libmediayamahaservice.so
- libsamsungAcousticeq.so
- libsamsungSoundbooster.so
- libsoundalive.so
- libsoundpool.so
- libSR_AudioIn.so
- libyamahasrc.so
*Only copy/replace the files listed above as they are only audio files. DO NOT COPY/REPLACE all system/lib files... You'll have unwanted consequences and you'll probably kill a puppy.
6) Now go to the Perception ROM and open system\app and find phone.apk. (Save a copy of your current phone.apk...Just in case)
-Copy (Perception's) phone.apk and replace the phone.apk on your current ROM.
7) After you replace the files listed above on your ROM, reflash your ROM and enjoy your increased call volume.
Note: If you don't want to reflash your ROM and risk losing any settings, you should be able to copy the files and replace them with Root Access and a file explorer, then Reboot your device immediately after. I haven't tried this yet so if someone wants to try and leave feedback, please feel free.
EDIT: Copying the files using a root explorer does work but may cause your phone to crash/reboot afterwards. I'd still recommend just re-flashing the ROM to avoid potential issues. Once again, make sure and make a back up so you can revert any changes if something doen't work properly.
I will try uploading a zip file with appropriate files so you can download but currently I do not have Designgears permission. This is their code and I don't want to step on any toes.
EDIT: I have tried reaching out to DG for permission but had no luck, if he asks that I remove the zip file, I will do so.
Known Potential Issues:
- When flashing over a stock/rooted ROM this update may cause the phone application to crash/force close. I have tried this update personally on every ROM I could flash and haven't had any issues. However, I have not tried it on the stock ROM. If you're on stock/rooted, please make a backup so if it does cause issues you can simply revert the changes.
Much thanks goes to Entropy512 for the help with solving this issue and Designgears ROM 'Perception'. Using Perception showed me that increasing the in-call volume was possible! (it's a very stable and awesome ROM as well )
***UPDATE***
Due to some people being a worried about flashing the update I have taken the liberty of making the backup files for you and making them flashable!
- I have made revert files for all of the major ROM's we currently have for our device. I did not include Perception because that ROM is where the audio files originated from. Below is the download links for the backups.
IF my volume fix does NOT work, simply download the backup for your ROM and flash it. It will revert all the changes my fix made.
- Revert_CM7.1_Stable
- Revert_H8s2_1.2.2
- Revert_Serendipity_8.2
- Revert_Stock_UCKH7
- Revert_UnNamed_1.2
- Revert_MIUI 1.11.4 v1
- If you are using Perception ROM you do NOT need the volume fix as this ROM has the files built in
As a side note, I have tried this on several I9100 ROM's as well and had luck with them all.
If this thread helps, please click the thanks button for me, I'm new to the XDA community.
Any I9100 ROM should work here for the libs - however:
Your mic will be screwed up for outgoing audio unless you change the Samsung Noise Reduction settings. (DG forced this in Perception, I believe he did it in an APK somewhere and not in the libs.)

I just tried a call and you're correct, the mic isn't working properly. Do I need to find the APK or do you know what changes I need to make? This is a popular issue and I'm hoping this thread can help.
Edit: I found some APK's....any idea which one would deal with the mic?
-CallSetting.apk
-Phone_Util.apk
-Phone.apk
-Settings.apk
Ahahaha, good thing I made a backup before pasting, but pasting the files in root explorer does work, however your phone will crash and reboot, but it is louder.
Doesn't work on the apk :v

Try copying the CallSetting.apk as well (use both). If you still don't have any luck with fixing the mic issue and you're using a file manager to make the switch, try re-flashing your ROM with the apk changes instead.
Make a backup before doing it so you can restore all your settings if it doesn't work for some reason.

Thats awesome news. Low mic has always been an issue for me. Just wondering if someone can create a flash able zip that automates everything, if possible.
Great work guys.

IF I can get approval from Designgears to use some sources from his ROM I shouldn't have any issues putting this into a zip file for everyone. I've reached out to DG, just awaiting a response

Hi!
My imei just suddenly disappeared one day and I have been trying everything I could find on this forum to fix it. My .nv_data.bak files (in /efs folder) seems to be fine (from the date of the file), but I think my nv_data.bin files is corrupted. Have tried the methods of using the .bak file to restore the imei, but havn't worked.
I sent my phone to the service center, and they told me that they had to change the motherboard on the phone to fix it, and it would cost me 500USD+.
Is there a another way to fix the phone without changing the motherboard? Can't see how changing the motherboard can cost over 500USD when the phone itself cost 750-800 USD.
PM Odia, he'll sort you out.

Talked with Odia now. Since my imei is blank and not 0049, the only way is to change the mainboard. Bah
Try this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.helroz.GSII_Repair#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwiY29tLmhlbHJvei5HU0lJX1JlcGFpciJd
I assume no responsibility.
Yeah, thought about it, but can't access the market when my imei is broken :/
Doesn't that tool more less just copy the /efs folder to /sdcard, (re)format it and copy everything back (i.e. fix the corrupted filesystem)?
If that's the case, you could do those steps via adb or terminal emulator app.

Exactly but I'm not sure how clued up the OP is so I offered him an easy option.
@OP can you not connect to the market with WiFi?

Erm, try going to applications in settings and clearing the market data and see if that fixes it.

HELP!!
When i was running the RGUI ROM (JB) there was a fix zip to use in CWM to fix the 'Media' drain in the battery.
This worked wonders! So i just tried to flash it to my device again, except now i'm running the 'Anonorom' ROM.
It worked. Or flashed without error anyway.
The problem now is that since the reboot, the 'Fonts' have failed to be picked by my apps.
This is most noticibly with UCCW. The widget i created for the homescreen uses about 5 different fonts and its defaulted to 1 default font.
When i open the widget to change the fonts back, it tells me theres only 1 font available; "Default" and that if i want to add more then to put them in 'sd:\fonts'.
I've gone back to my file manager and checked this location and there are LOADS of fonts in there still, so its not as if they've been deleted.
Clearly this is the work of the fix_mediaDrain.zip, which i now obviously regret flashing. And WHO KNOWS what other errors i will now encounter!
So my question is, other than reflashing the ROM (which would be a pain because i've also flashed the JKay framework and other things like that, and amanaged to get the phone to my liking) does ANYONE know of a kind of UNDO fix for this fix_mediaDrain.zip that i can flash.
Obviously i dont even know if it exists,im just praying, but if anyone has any ideas i would greatly appriociate it.
I'm guessing the media scanner has been stopped, or a .nomedia file has been placed in the fonts folder.
So first check if there is a file called .nomedia in this folder and if so, delete it and reboot.
If not, then get rescan media root from play and try to enable media scanner and reboot.
Report back please

Firstly, thanks for your reply..
I've checked the location for a '.nomedia' file and no it does not exist.
I even checked 'Root Explorer' incase the file was hiddenin my regular file manager. Still nothing.
I downloaded the 'Rescan Media Root' app, which looked successful, but didnt fix my issue.
I tried a different app called 'media Rescan Lite', but that too did not fix the issue.
It's not looking good for me is it?
well the obvious path note really is to post in the Rom thread/contact dev and find out what the file does and how it can be reverted, let me know if you don't have enough posts and I will post link to your dilemma for you

I have contacted the developer of this fix to ask what it does exactly and if theres any way to undo the fix.
I have also added a post to the thread where this fix was first suggested to me in the past, incase anyone there might be able to shed some light on it..
I will post my findings once i ear back from anyone incase anyone else ever has this problem...
Thanks again.
SOLVED!!
I have managed to fix this problem!
This is going to sound RIDICULOUS but.....
I renamed the 'Fonts' folder on my sdcard slightly.
I say 'renamed', but all i did was make the filename all lowercase, creating "fonts" instead of "Fonts".
Then, IMMEDIATLY, the fonts on my widget wer back to normal..!
How very odd that this was changed by the 'fix_mediaDrain.zip' throgh CWM + reboot.

I found the thread to edit the. Xml and when I view the file in ES Explorer, I can see the entire file but when I click on edit it's like half of the file disappears. I can't edit the last part of the file because it's not there. Anyone have any suggestions?
I know lots of people like ES, but I found it pretty flakey. I really like FX:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx
and the root add-on:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx.rr
Hasn't failed me yet, and it's the only file manager I've used that keeps the permissions correct when you edit and save a file.
I have a sprint g3 that is rooted. I tried to do the volume mod but ran into some problems. I did exactly what it said. I edited it with es file explorer. In your last section labeled speaker and headphone, there is no section on my g3. I went through the whole text file 3 times and there is no such section. I did find and change the other changes exactly as you specified. After I was done, I rebooted and it got stuck on the sprint boot screen. I took the battery out and tried starting back up but each time it gets stuck on the sprint boot screen. I did a battery pull 4 times and each time the same thing happens. Now when I do a battery pull and hold the power button, nothing happens, it doesn't even turn on. Please help.
Anyone have any suggestions on this??
I had to try to do a full wipe by reinstaling the OP through the LG website because I didn't have a custom recovery installed to back up. Somehow that didnt work and ended up bricking my device. I was within the warranty period so I just exchanged the phone. I would like to try the vol mod again (this time with twrp installed) but don't want to run into the same issues. Is there anyone that can help me with this? Thank you
I have flashable vol mods already. In the stock ZV4,ZV6 and all the Barrin Roms. They're in the op of each.
You can just pull them from the zip, place it, and make sure to FIX PERMISSIONS. That's why the bootloop. If you want to do it manually.
The first thing is to not save and reboot with an incomplete file. If you can't edit it fully, don't save it. I made the edits with FX, Linked above, and it didn't truncate the file. Finally, after editing and saving, double check that the permissions are 0644 / rw-r--r-- before rebooting.
Oh, and make a nandroid backup of your rom first, including the East partition, so if something goes wrong you can recover and make a copy of the original file, too.
Edit: Corrected the permission, in red, above.
This is a update. Just to refresh, I am on a sprint phone rooted with custom recovery, model # LGLS990, first off these are the only two files thats similar in system-etc mixer_paths_auxpcm.xml and mixer_paths.xml. Which mixer file do I use? I used the mixer_paths.xml. I found a file that someone had saved in another thread with the modified changes so I downloaded that file, moved it to my phone, copy and pasted it, overwrite the orignal file, then changed permissions and when it rebooted, I had no sound at all. PLEASE HELP

First off, be careful you do not take the ota. You will lose root and have to Flashtool back to zv4. There's threads on that.
I don't remember what's in the zips, but you can flash it all and it'll probably run better. If you just want the mixer_path.xml, delete the build prop, and any other file. Leave Meta and system/etc/mixer path.xml

I noticed you said on the permissions rw-rw-r but in the Op of the vol mod (different thread), it said to use rw-r-r-
I am a little confused as to which permission to use??

Ok, thanks. So, I can just flash the entire zip then? Flashing the entire zip will probably make it run better then? Or do I need to pull apart the zip and just use the mixer file. The entire zip is for the stock rom then? Thanks for your help, havent done this in a few years so I'm a bit rusty. By the way, you said to leave meta, what is that file? If I'm just flashing the zip, I can do through recovery then?
Yes. Leave meta. Its part of what directs the file in the zip file where to go and gives permissions to replace existing files Etc.

OK. So I'm a bit confused too about what engine95 linked to. There are zips for final mixer path, and for extreme volume. Which one does the stereo effect? Having trouble reading some of the strings in the first post against the black background of Xda app
I flashed the mixer xml file. It worked but the speaker volume is still a little too low. How can I change the speaker volume to a little bit louder? Thanks

About mid file. It'll say "speaker". 70 is the Extreme version setting.

I went into path - speaker and to digital volume and changed the rx values (3 and 4) to 70 and rebooted and now I'm in a bootloop. It stays on the sprint logo screen. Please help.

Not 3 and 4. 1 and 2. I think I have them at 65. And your bootloop is because you didn't set permissions properly. You'll need to restore in TWRP if you made a backup. If you didn't, then it's Flashtool.
If you're still on zv4 why didn't/don't you just flash the extreme one I linked you to before?
OK thanks but the permissions were set correctly. rw-r-r
There is no 1 and 2 that I see. I have attached a screenshot.

Anyway sorry. I dont have any backups
But I have installed dolby atmos on 3 devices and works perfectly. Because it boots your sound something twice or thrice for little big speakers.
If u want u can try that.
Hope u will find backups that u want.
Best of luck

Which mod did u flash the first one or the second one ?
If u still have root. Then install ES file explorer from playstore and go to this path given below:-
/system/etc
From there send me the 'mixer paths.xml' (only if its there then send)
Also 'audio effects.conf'
So that I can see if any changes are there. Just dont do anything else in those folder just copy it to sd card and then send me.
Thanks

Here it goes.
I flashed first this then this
Thank you
Noob guess..

try volume booster pro.
Do u have custom rom?
or stock mod?
replacing files can help.
or simply flash another mod.
Arise and Dolby are d best from my opinion

I saw both 1 and 2 of that mod. In second one which one did u use the loud or normal.
And when I checked them i saw a lot of changes happened in your phone of audio files, more than 13 file edited and some new files.
I just edited one of your file. Try replacing it with the one I uploaded
1. Open es file explorer
2 go to left top and tap on settings
3. Scroll down till the tab 'tools'
4. In tools tap the 'Root Explorer'
5. Give permission with superuser ( it wont come if u already have given permission). After giving permission copy the file i gave and paste it in the path below.
6. Go to the path /system/etc
7. Paste the file I uploaded and 'overwrite' the file.
8. Keep holding on that file untill tick mark appears on it(which you pasted just now)
9. Go to properties of that file. ( can be on top right)
10. Tap on change permission
11. Tick all in the first column, second column only the first one should be ticked.
12. Tap OK
13. Exit everything and restart your phone.
14. Test your audio with headsets and without them.

First make sure to take backup.
Paste the file in the same path like i uploaded. Eg:- 'audioeffects.conf' i have pasted in 'etc'. So paste in the same folder of yours. Also change the permission of every thing like i told you before. Otherwise any damage can happen.
First column all,second column only first one to be ticked- permission
Permission for the folders you create - first column all, second column only first, third column all.
If the apps in your path /system/app are pasted in each folder then make folder for the apps you are pasting. Eg:- the app 'As' in the folder named 'As'
Reboot after process.
