Hey guys. As I've mentioned in other posts I have an issue with the newer android builds because they have an audio limiter/compressor/auto gain control built in which greatly reduces the output of the headphone jack making it hard to get good volume from whatever you plug it into and also making the built in speaker do weird things. Anyways I may have found a possible fix but I have no idea how to use these commands in the link. Can somebody please explain how these work? Thanks in advance!

i am not a dev but it seems to be something that applications can use to normalize input from the mic
so i dont think this is related to audio output from mp3 files

Are you familiar with the limiter I speak of? Like when there a soft spot in the music and then hits a loud spot the limiter kicks it down. As an audiophile this is driving me nuts trying to find a way to turn it off lol. Have any ideas? Maybe it's located in build.prop?

its not the build.prop but if you want to play with configure files, you could go into /system/etc there are some conf related to audio there and some more in /system/etc/parameter-frameworks

although if you want to make your tablet look like a Nexus 7 for compatiblities with more apps in the play store u can edit the build.prop for that

best to copy them to a pc and use notepad++, then put it back and reboot

Ok so here's a new issue. I plug in headphones and they connect. Then it says Headphones disconnected, but audio still plays through. This causes Viper to not work because it also thinks there are no headphones plugged in.

Before you installed Viper, did you try listening to music through headphones long enough to know this didn't exist then?

Yes. They work fine. But the device thinks they become disconnected. It's headphones with a mic on them that are doing it. Speakers work and headphones without a mic work and Viper works because they don't appear as disconnected.
Unfortunately my best ones are my Sol Republic V10's and they are affected.

3 pairs with mics and after I plug them in the says headphones disconnected. Like I said they still have sound but since the device shows them DC'd then so does Viper. Sol V10's, V8's and Beats Solo 2 all with Mics. JBL earbuds w/o a mic work fine, external speakers work fine. It's got to be a driver issue of some sort. Not with Viper but with the ROM

It's when there is a headset control in the live that it does it like on the headphones I have. When I plug in a headphone splitter first and then the headphones, which in turn disables the headset controls, it doesn't do it
Guys, I still can't send adb commands in USB debugging mode. Just before I installed the CM ROM I was using the adb to reboot, push, pull etc.. Now, when I connect the phone, I can't. I checked device manager and saw a yellow icon near 'ascend mate 2'. For some reason, the phone driver had disappeared. That might be the problem. I had the Huawei drivers that come with JB. I installed them to no avail. I have another computer which has Google drivers already installed. I plugged the phone and the result was the same.
@medwatt did you install HiSuite from Huawei website. That's the only way I can get adb to work with Windows 8.1 or 10.
---------- Post added at 06:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:31 AM ----------
I'll be home around 9 and will plug my phone in to see if it registers on adb. But I had the driver issue before and the only way to resolve it was install HiSuite

Yes, adb has always been working. It only stopped working after I installed CM. Also, HiSuite is designed to work with the Huawei ROM. So, it won't work on a non Huawei ROM.

ADB is working you need to go into settings/developer options/ and enbale root access for apps and adb then enable android debugging after that. Its working for me on Windows 10.
Man, everything is activated. I've been using adb long enough to know what is required to get it working. Check the attached image. Do you have some driver that I need to install. I have always just plugged the phone to the computer and adb was ready to go. The only driver I ever installed was the Huawei driver that came with JB 4.3. Apart from the low speaker volume and this adb issue, the ROM has been very smooth and bug free so far.

I honestly don't know. I didn't install Viper and my ear buds w/ mic work. Did you try changing the compatibility mode, or making it system app? Don't know if those will help.

How to do volume boost on the new CM12.1 builds (rear speaker)
Since I am fairly sure that Viper is not working on this CM12, and I needed something to boost the unbelievably low speaker volume, I decided to do it the simplest way I know how, by editing the mixer_paths.xml file.
Instructions(easy):
Using a root explorer, navigate to /system/etc/, find the file "mixer_paths.xml" file. Rename to "mixer_paths.xml.orig".
Place this file in that same directory>>> Modded mixer_paths.xml (make sure the permissions match the original)
Reboot. Done.
Instructions(manual):
Using a root explorer, navigate to /system/etc/, find the file "mixer_paths.xml" file. Create a backup of this file named "mixer_paths.xml.orig".
Open the original 'mixer_paths.xml" file in a text editor, and find the line that says
Code:
<path name="speaker-lite">
Six lines below that, you should find this line
Code:
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="84" />
change it to
Code:
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="91" />
Reboot. Done.
If it's too loud for your liking, what with speaker crackling and whatnot, you can always change the 91 to something like 90 or lower. I would not go above 95 however.
What volume does it boost? Rear speaker and ear piece?
I heard that there is a lot of confusion about installing ViPER4Android on Nougat. After searching around the web i found a way to do it ^_^ It should work on all Nougat build released until now. Last test on N4F26J
First of all unistall any previous ViPER4Android app.
Requirements:
Root
TWRP
SuperSU 2.78 or higher
BusyBox 1.24.2 or higher installed in \su\xbin
Installation:
Flash ViPER4Android_2.5.0.5_guitardedhero.zip in TWRP
Go to vendor\etc and remove/rename audio_effects.conf using any file manager with root access (ex. Root Browser)
Open ViPER4Android app and install driver (Grant root permission). (It could freeze for a few seconds, just be patient!)
Reboot
Disable MusicFX app
Reboot
Done :3
I hope this will help you
Thanks to guitardedhero for the modified zip file
EDIT: fixed google drive link
ElementalX kernel not required. Thanks for the guide.... Enjoy
Works on stock?

I want to know if its working system wide.
viper4android saying not enable and not processing....anyone with the same issue?
for me its only working in compatible mode.. anyone else?
Did not completely work for me. At first when i did the procedure everything was ok,driver installed neon,ok. But when i played native audio or pandora no difference. Also when i plugged in my Fiio K1 DAC it change to not supported abnormal. Tried clean installing into system 3x, edidtin,deleting, the file in vendor. No luck, maybe we just have to wait a bit longer, rom used is Purenexus. Also when i did it,i already had the drive installed.....
---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------
UPDATE:
So i did get it working, but i used the Viper 6.01 that guitar user posted in the nexus 5x forum.
Works with only Headphone jack,
NOT with usb out. When using USB out it just dosent work.
Also for some reason my pandora now keeps crashing
BUT IT WORKS, so i think ill keep it. Ill leave the DAC/AMP at home for my laptop, and use the viper limiter at maximum and just up the bass a bit.
All i wanted was to get the bass higher with out maximizing the volume.
Id suggest using arise, it's way better than stock Viper
If I may make a suggestion that will ultimately save you a lot of grief, move to the updated ARISE sound mod by guitardedhero and others. The latest is deuteronomy 2.x and, as opposed to the tweaks, futzing and issues of sound being processed/sticking or not, this is a much simpler install and just works.
Head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709 and just install the base version. You'll get Viper4ARISE. I still flash a permissive kernel zip with my Nougat ROMs, but since I switched to ARISE, V4A has worked flawlessly, and it sounds even better than the old V4A from this thread.
It also removes MusicFX with the install process and I haven't had to disable/remove the audio_effects.conf file either.
Lastly, I'm not sure development is continuing on the base V4A anyway. ARISE is the way to modify your Android sound processing now.

You don't need to AFAIK and it isn't a kernel. V4A used to need SELinux permissive to run, but stock and most custom kernels run enforcing. I just mentioned that I flash a permissive mod out of habit FYI. You are likely better off going to the A.R.I.S.E. threads to discuss issues.

Just flashed Deuteronomy 2.1 (non classic) on my nexus 6P. After enabling V4Arise and enabling speaker optimization, the phone speaker sound is actually worse than stock, more muted across range. I haven't tried headphones yet. kinda disappointed. My advice: V4A is overhyped. just keep stock sound.

Sorry, but you clearly haven't tested anything at all yet. Speaker optimization isn't that great and yes it mutes it, but that's to avoid the pop and tinny issues with many phone speakers. However, if you use that, then play with the EQ and other settings, you may surprise yourself. That would require more than a 5 second evaluation though.
Have you tried the EQ presets or customized them? What about dynamic sound or the various compressions? How about any number of things most people would play around with before writing something off? These types of tweaks are, after all, the point of a sound mod with a detailed EQ.
Since you admit you haven't even tried headphones, let alone bluetooth and haven't played with the EQ at all, it may just be a wee bit early to pronounce it a failure. And ... the VAST majority of people who use it would disagree.

Hours or days? It takes me a few minutes of playing on a fresh install until I hit what I like. Plus, you can save your settings as a profile. However, it's clear from your responses that you can't be bothered to actually test it. If you have a home stereo, you play around with EQ until you like it. If you listen to music in your car, you set treble and bass, balance and other things. This is no different. How on earth a sound app that, at its heart is an EQ, could be set and forget BEFORE YOU INSTALL IT is beyond me. That's not even the purpose of it. If that's what you want, then you're not looking for a sound mod. The entire point of a sound mod / EQ is to allow people to adjust the sound to their preference for their hardware and listening preferences/context.

ultyrunner is absolutely correct here. The criticisms you have leveled against this project would be considered rude (and a bit ignorant) even if you actually had a solid point to make, or some evidence to back it up. As it stands, you don't have either, and asking a question like "What's the point of installing it if you have to do all the work yourself in that department? I'm not an audio engineer..." is just unthinkable. People specifically poured blood, sweat, and tears into this thing for that exact reason... so that people who aren't engineers can improve their experience via the developer's knowledge. Either you were just being flippant about "having to do all the work yourself" and you don't actually mean that - in which case it would have been preferable for you to just say "thank you but I am having a few problems," et cetera, and be on your way...OR you do actually think you're doing all the work, which is a smack in the face to a developer... a developer whose work you very obviously do not grasp the complexity of, nor the amount of time and effort required to produce said work. Don't bash people's work if you haven't yet evaluated it properly, and most especially make an effort to understand it at a high level before you complain (if you really need to complain at all, which you don't).
I'm sorry, but if I was the developer, seeing a comment/comments like these would be enough for me to close down the project ASAP. And I'm not just pulling that out of my ass, I've been through five or six phones and development communities here on XDA, and I have seen exactly that happen on more than one occasion.
And that's the problem with XDA. People take things to personally. This isn't a forum for babies. We're allowed to express our opinions and concerns here, believe he or not.
Hey guys!
So I wrote up this post over on the XDA Portal on how to increase the headphone jack volume on the OnePlus 6. I then realised when I updated my device that that change had reset. As a result, I spent a couple of minutes putting together a Magisk module to make that change for you. It works for every OOS version released so far. Just download it below, install it in Magisk and you're good to go! It should work on custom ROMs, but I haven't tried that yet.

I have also made a module which enables acervenky's stereo speaker modification too.

Okay so it did work for me, but it only works for YouTube, not for the stuff downloaded. Whenever I play downloaded music from my music player, it doesn't sound loud, rather it sounds the same. Is there any way that I can increase the volume from my music player?

This really sucks because I have the same problem. I'm using a systemless root with Magisk and I can't directly edit the mixer path file without it reverting. Likewise, I'm unable to load this .zip file in Magisk because it says unsupported file. Any idea how I'm supposed to get this working? I'd really like to see if adjusting this to 90 would help drive my B&O H6 headphones!

This would be great, Bluetooth headphone users don't get the flar2 gain control so we can only alter volume with v4a, which doesn't output enough imo
Thank you brooooooo this world great! :highfive:
Why don't just use V4A FX? it will loud all system volume, you can choose between headphones and speaker and can perform every changes or just loud up the volume...just a suggestion
Guy's, just rename name of the file, for example boost.zip and everything is fine, flashing on magisk work like a charm.
Doesn't work on havoc rom latest version 13/11 bootloop

Because v4a isnt systemwide. It breaks on notifications without another magisk module to patch that, and the gain is limited, and the effects arent reliable, they tend to randomly do "Processing: No"

Latest version is systemwide, and yes is limited butquite loud in my opinion, never have any issue, but i was just wandering why, don't wanna start a discussion about this OT

Its systemwide in a Sense, but not really, There is audio ducking on notifications, hence the module "notification_helper remover"
And v4a hasnt Been updated in years, only some People modded the ui and Called it new, unfortunatley There hasnt Been anything touched in v4a's processing in years

Install "Ainur JamesDSP v1.7" Magisk module and choose the HQ 64bit driver
Install "Audio Modification Library v.1.8.1" Magisk module
Reboot
Configure JamesDSP app
Confirmed working (speakers & headphones (can't test bluetooth)) on my FIG-LX1 (L31) - EMUI 8.0.0.148(C432) - Magisk v17.1
Edit: If you don't want ringtones/notification-sounds to be processed, switch DSP registration from global to conventional. (3dot menu - top right, screenshot added)
Huge thanks to natanrosenfeld (he made a YT video, explaining a fix for previous version (now fixed with v1.7)) - and especially the JamesDSP dev team!
Great news I seen it on .android-hilfe.de myself
Messing around and cant seem to get it right, either too loud or doesnt work
Viper4android was much easier to setup, using Huawei DTS.irs or srs_2_1.irs then not much else and worked great

Have you tried using the same impulse response files with JamesDSP?
Copy the .irs (or .wav, .flac) to /storage/emulated/0/JamesDSP/Convolver and enable Convolver in JamesDSP.
Works great here.

Can you send screenshot of what you have, not sure on other settings

Even if we'd share the exact same setup (e.g. settings/IR xy sound great with my Shure SE425 in-ear headphones, but not so great with my AKG Q701) and preference of music, it would still be incredibly subjective and mainly based on taste. Certified sound-engineers would probably disagree, I guess
My suggestion is: leave every (other) option off, download a pack of different IRs (e.g. https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/collection-convolver-samples-389-t3140299) and try each one out. If you found one you like, (slightly) tune it with the EQ. At least that's my "non-pro" approach.
Mostly all I want is to make the phone louder, well the phone speaker, on Bluetooth speakers etc it's fairly OK
Next issue is echo sound on ringtone and notification
I'll try IRS out and maybe someday have Viper4android
It's a system-wide audio-mod, so yes, if you have e.g. Virtual Room Effect turned on or use a noticably "reverberating" impulse response file, you'll experience echo on ringtones/notification-sounds too.
I've managed to make the speakers slightly louder by choosing the highest IR Volume Level (30dB), but I think the device's speaker volume level/overall sound-quality is just physically limited. They are not the "best" speakers after all.

I noticed the room effect and turned it off, but just using Irs or some of them and seemed to be an echo,
Speaker is good enough, it is only a phone after all, there are small bluetooth speakers now that have great volume to help
A nice guy from the Telegram channel pointed out, that you can avoid processing system sounds (ringtones/notification) by switching DSP registration mode from global to conventional (screenshot added to OP).
YEEEES!!!! This mod is also working on Huawei P20Pro with EMUI8.1.. I just follow the same steps above. Thanks a lot man!

Hi do you know if I can change mixer path values without root and using adb on pc? , I'm trying to raise volume of WhatsApp calls, calls and maybe a bit of loud speaker volume but I'm trying to avoid root etc. Thanks any advice would be appreciated or a link to tutorials. I'm on psmart. Thanks again

Sorry - I'm not an expert, so don't take my word for it - but I don't think that's possible, since all these files are stored in locations, where (non root) users don't have write permissions. Even with a rooted and/or custom recovery device, I don't think it's possible to alter app-specific volumes by just changing mixer_paths.xml values.

Sorry I know I mentioned whats app but really I just mean overall volume. With my moto g5 I was able to edit mixer path values which led to louder everything. But that was only with root as I'm new to adb. Thanks for your response

In case your bootloader is unlocked, iirc you could theoretically fastboot flash TWRP - and use TWRP's "privileged" terminal (e.g. (mount /system), adb pull/push and edit the file(s)), and then (re)flash stock recovery again - without actually rooting the device.
Again, I'm not an expert (also didn't try it myself) and can't guarantee above mentioned procedure works, despite my inner-Sherlock-Holmes tells me, your bootloader is actually not unlocked.

Yeah still locked dude, tried DC unlocker but they refunded as I'm on latest security patch and admitted there is nothing they can do right now.
