Now we have root, I followed the guide for the G3 for the volume boost mod, and it seems to have worked. I am on the VS986 variant. Follow the link to the OP and thank @spiderio!.....FYI, I changed my values to 90
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-headphone-speaker-volume-booster-t2819821
I believe there was an app that simply did this for the G3 as well. I'd try it if I had a custom recovery, but I'm gonna give this a shot. Thanks!

Wow, I've changed (increased) volume on every other phone, but my VS986 is almost too loud at full volume.
VS986 LG G4
The G4 file appears to be slightly different, did you modify all values listed?

I felt like the G4 was plenty loud as is, but I still modified a few things to get it slightly louder. Using solid explorer:
Root storage -> system -> etc -> mixer_paths.xml
You'll see: <ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value = xx>
Please note that certain variants may have different files. I distinctly remember Verizon G3 users had a different file to modify in order to get the sound louder. This may be the case for specific variants of the G4 as well.
I replaced all the digital volumes, from RX1 to RX8 to 90 and noticed a bit of a difference in everything. I'm not quite sure what each one does specifically, as the G3 had a bit this written out a bit cleaner, but 90 seems like the sweet spot for me in the G4. I scrolled down the entire xml file and couldn't really find anything else helpful (more like skimmed it, others may be able to find something).
Now if only I could get rid of the annoying feature that constantly puts the volume down whenever I put headphones in! Ugh.

Yeah, I'm actually getting annoyed by the G4 and how quiet it is. I've even started considering headphone app options or even a separate MP3 player!
I have Viper installed and it doesn't help enough...
Now, with the 'RX*' lines, I see the large list near the top of the file, but did you also change the ones that are listed throughout under the separate headings/subsections?

I actually did not. Maybe set those values to 95 and give it a whirl. I'd try myself but I'm preoccupied at the moment.

I'm quite familiar with modding the mixer_paths.xml (did it on every rom on my LG G2), so I'd be happy to mod one for you. PM me if you need help.
VS986 LG G4
So, as an update... With a shotgun approach to changing values, we have a beautiful volume increase. It's stellar. Both @jesssiii are going to be digging into the file a bit more when we have time and will sort it out better.. It's a bit of trial and error, but with a good idea now.
It seems unlike the G2, jesssiii was able to use my mixer_paths.xml file without problem despite different variants. If anyone would like my terribly messy trial one to test or mess around with you can send me a PM and I'll explain what I've done a bit. Otherwise, as I said, once we have a better idea we'll share a cleaner solution!!
BTW: THIS IS ****ING AWESOME. The problems I have with this phone are slowly melting away with root.

You may need to poke around a bit then, I don't really speak on the phone often so I'm not testing anything lol.
This file is a lot more complicated than the G2 one. Judging from the other thread I'd start modifying the 'RX* Digital Volume' settings for things with the 'handset' header.
And for everyone else, so people can get a jump on, as who knows when I'm going to have time in next couple weeks...
Here you go!
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1dI2Or-HQ8JLTB3X1VSX2c4Vm8/view?usp=docslist_api
This is a very scattershot approach, and it may have some unexpected results due to that, because we haven't quite refined it.
I went through and searched 'headphones' and changed many of the 'RX* Digital Volume' up to the number 94 (to make sure it was obvious which I changed). I also changed one 'SPK Amp Volume' from 5 to 8, under a 'speaker-and-headphones' heading. Also near the very top of the file I changed a whole list of 'RX* Digital Volume' values that were in a row.
What I didn't change was anything very clearly referring to something, such as TTY, USB, anything mentioning a KHz, VOIP, etc... But it is easy to find what I did.
The goal was to sit down when I have more time and figured out exactly which of the many are the ones that matter for this case of actually increasing headphones, as we had two more conservative attempts that did nothing at all.
I am using FX File Explorer (with root plugin), and it doesn't seem to have the problem of truncating files or modifying permissions, but it's good to always double check.
Good luck, and feel free to take a shot and share your results.
(I'm not responsible for any problems, don't forget to backup your file and check permissions!)

In-call volume path in the G2 was found here:
Code:
Dont set it too loud as echo will happen. Credit to dr87 for that info.
I haven't had time yet to look for this in my G4 as yet.
Also, I found the changed file linked by usreak above to give distortion at high volume. On the G2 it was said for headphones to only adjust:
Code:
<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="32" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="32" />
And for speaker RX7 Digital.
Obviously this all needs more research/experimentation. Thanks @Usraek for your help and work!

Ok, some people have repoted success with my Audio Hack on the Nexus whilst some people have reported no change at all.
If my app or the manual hack works for you can you please let me know what ROM you're running, and which version of my hack you used, it would be very helpful

i tried every possible combo with the options this morning and i still have nothing. oddly, i get a double screen option on the headphone boost screen. 2 yes and 2 no's. one pair is white the other yes is green and the other no is red.
my results and some information
Meltus,
Do you have a N1 to play with? or are you shooting in the dark (and thus need help)?
Anyhow ...
Some details ...
I implemented via manually pushing the AudioPara4.csv, AudioFilter.csv, & AudioPreProcess.csv files to /system/etc and then rebooting.
I tried both G7_v3r2 and G7_v2r2. Both resulted in (from what I can tell) no change. I did not witness any volume gain or decrease. No distortion. No nothin'. Literally everything appeared unchanged.
Some interesting things I found for you ...
The stock (or shipping) AudioPara4.csv in the Nexus1 (ERD79) is the exact match for all Stock-sapphire-32B(MT3G) ROM's/devices.
Also, AudioPreProcess.csv and AudioFilter.csv are not present on the Nexus1.
Also, the Nexus1 is shipping with a couple new .csv files in the /system/etc directory ... AdieHWCodecSetting.csv & AudioBTID.csv.
That's the results I obtained and the relevant detail I observed. If you need anything else from me in way of producing an audio mod. I'd be happy to assist.

Yeah, i'm pretty much guessing at the moment, with help from simms22, but we've still not been able to get the volume hack to work.
It's strange though, some people have reported success whilst most others haven't. And, from checking the logcat when the mediaserver restarts, it loads the AudioPara4.csv fine, so my files should make a difference and the headset boost option should work fine, but it doesn't ><
So far, we've established that the AudioFilter.csv and AudioPreProcess.csv aren't used by the Nexus, but the strange thing is, some of the Nexus firmware dumps which people provided for me include these files and some don't. It seems as if there's 2 versions of the nexus, either that or people added the files in when they sent me the dump.
So, it seems that the nexus loads the AudioPara file, but i'm not sure why as it doesn't do anything. The other 2 files seem to be bluetooth related, so i'm not sure they'll make a difference.
God, this phone's more trouble than it's worth

I am not getting the double screen at all. I saw no difference in the volume either with the external speaker or the headphones after installation and setting up V2r2.
Volume Hack
I have the double icons on the headset screen. I haven't had a change in the volume.
Now I could have sworn when I tried it that the volume got worse and then I tried the files on your site the stock ones and it got better but after playing with it continuously for about 3 days I have come to the conclusion it is a placebo effect and nothing more.

DSP Manager might work better for you. Be careful - don't want to blow that tiny thing
Use QPST to increase the volume - this requires that you know ur MSL.
MSL Reader is free on Google Play (requires root!) and how to configure/use QPST can be found by searching XDA.

Even with tweaks the speaker on the LTE is not ideal, I'm guessing that's likely because they were trying to save room when creating the design. I was honestly debating looking up the speaker online and seeing if I could find a better one to replace it with...though this isn't ideal for most people (including myself), I'm still really tempted to do so.

I agree with you but I thought I would throw it out there just on the off-chance it does actually work for some.
How about trying the loudspeaker of motorola photon? It has one of the loudest speaker , and i ve seen it the part is thinner than the evo 4g speaker
The photon speaker also very cheap only $4 online
The problem is how to attach it to our phone ?

Read the disclaimer for the qpst. Setting the tab all the way up to four has the potential to blow out your phone's speakers. Three is the best bet. As always you do this at your own risk and nobody is responsible if you mess up your phone. Don't mean to sound like a douche but I had to tell somebody off for smarting off to me about using qpst.
actually if you put your ear RIGHT UP TO THE PHONE it'll sound louder! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!?!?!?!? lol. now if you actually read the manual.. I think it actually says something like you have to hold your phone at least an inch away from your head or you'll die of the rays coming out of your phones. lol! QPST is ****ty software. I'm not paying to use it.

You guys should give it a shot, seems better than those Google Play apps that you need to pay in order to receive... nothing

I don't have bluetooth headphones to test it with sorry. It mentioned in the file that it was updating various speakers and mics alike (not just one) so I could assume that it also boosted the bluetooth volume. Don't hold me to it though.

Hey, not a stupid question. The only stupid question is the one not asked ( regardless of some of the members here... eh hem)
You'll need ADB if you plan on doing it from your computer or you'll need root browser depending on how you want to do it.
Root is required, as you have to modify system folders.
If you don't know what you're doing, I'd recommend getting root browser.
1) Place the two files (snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3, and snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3_auxpcm) on your SD card.
2) Navigate to System/etc/snd_soc_msm and delete the files (snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3...and it's brother) there.
3) Copy and paste the files from your SD card to replace them.
4) Reboot your phone.

You'll need ADB if you plan on doing it from your computer or you'll need root browser depending on how you want to do it.
Root is required, as you have to modify system folders.
If you don't know what you're doing, I'd recommend getting root browser.
1) Place the two files (snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3, and snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3_auxpcm) on your SD card.
2) Navigate to System/etc/snd_soc_msm and delete the files (snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3...and it's brother) there.
3) Copy and paste the files from your SD card to replace them.
4) Reboot your phone.

Does this work for AOSP as well?
Thanks for the post. Once i finally get around to rooting my S4 Ill have to give this a try. Iv never been great doing mods and stuff. SO hopefully this is pretty easy. Just about the only thing Iv disliked about my S4 is the volume output. Can hardly hear my notifications if im in a place thats not pretty quite.

I haven't seen an AOSP rom for the S4 yet, but I would assume no. The file does not exist at the same location on stock 4.2 ( checked on my GNex prior to typing this). I would venture to say that this is a TW exclusive mod.

yeah the furthest I usually venture into touching my phone, is flashing junk that I know nwill work the first time haha. With there being no stable recovery I was hesitant. It works though so I'm happy. I know it works, because we were in the movie theater right before the movie started (got quiet) and it went off in my pocket... ZOMGWTHBBQ... yea everyone looked at me.... awkward haha
Do you have to change the permissions to rw-r--r--?

I never had to change any permissions. Everything in that zip file should already have the correct permissions added.

haha picked the best time to go off.
Wow this was an amazing boost in volume! Moderate for me. As soon as I rebooted the phone and got to the Samsung boot image I was instantly shocked by the volume change lol. Good stuff! Cheers!
Thanks I needed it to be louder. I think the galaxy series phones are a little too quite.

I tried the moderate one and say fail,unable to open zip file,im running stock rooted,(deodex).
Hey guys...So I've searched the forums and the interwebs trying to find if anyone else has this issue, but the top speaker on my HTC One is significantly quieter than the lower speaker. It also is super quiet when talking on the phone, as in I have to be in a quiet room and the phone forcibly pressed against my ear in the right place for me to hear anyone. This happens across different ROMs leading me to believe it's a hardware issue, but I was just curious if anyone else has encountered this and found a fix?
Have the same experience. No clue if it's normal or not. Doesn't seem to be too huge of a deal when held from a distance.
True, but the phone call quietness is what kills me.

I have also noticed this, although for me it doesn't affect the volume of my calls that significantly, so I don't know if mine is just not as bad as yours, or what. But yeah, it's weird. Kinda defeats the purpose of the whole "stereo speaker" thing...

Doesn't matter which ROM or kernel I use, from stock to kitkat it still does the same thing, which makes me believe its hardware...
At this point I'm just waiting for the z1s to come out haha

Doesn't matter as far as beats goes...and HTC has done me well, this is the first issue I've had with any of the many phones of theirs I've had...just bored with it I guess.
