Hey guys. First : Sorry for my maybe bad english
Back to topic :
I realised that my Voicemessages on Whatsapp and Voicerecording are not loud enough, people had problems to hear my voicemessages on Whatsapp,Telegram etc...
When i use normal Telephoning or Videorecording the Volume of Voice is okay.
So i decided to play a little bit with the mixer_paths.xml. After three days of try and error i decided today a last try and it worked !
I copy and paste the Line of the mixer_paths.xml :
<!-- #ifdef VENDOR_EDIT-->
<!-- [email protected]rv,2015/3/19,add for 14049 mic -->
<path name="adc3">
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1"/>
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="One" />
<ctl name="SLIM TX7 MUX" value="DEC4" />
<ctl name="DEC4 MUX" value="ADC3" />
<ctl name="DEC4 Volume" value="84" /> Change "DEC4 Volume" value= 96
<ctl name="IIR1 INP1 MUX" value="DEC4" />
<ctl name="ADC3 Volume" value="13" />Change "ADC3 Volume" value= 19
</path>
Change DEC4 to 96, and ADC3 to 19 that is perfect for me
That is 3x louder with less distortion. But dont go any higher, because i tryed DEC4 = 106 and you are loud as hell, but not good understandable.
Maybe that needs a little bit finetuning, but it is just a dirty fix.
You need to have a rooted device to do that changes
And do not forget to save the file and do a reboot after changes ^^

Use the "Mixer_paths.xml".
It is near the End of the File. There are many lines like this. (adc1,adc2,adc3,adc4,adc5.....dmic1,dmic2,dmic3....) And all lookes like this codeblock i have posted.
Running Resurrection Remix here, my mixer_paths.xml didn't have the ctl elements in that section, but I copy-pasted yours with the altered values and it works like a charm. I was wondering if it'd work for the audio recording during videos, might give it a try once I'll have some free time...

Hey, what problem do you have with Audiorecording during videos ? I think its loud enough ??
If you want, i can try to give you a fix.
Here it is :
- <path name="adc4">
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="One" />
<ctl name="SLIM TX7 MUX" value="DEC3" />
<ctl name="DEC3 MUX" value="ADC4" />
<ctl name="DEC3 Volume" value="84" /> <----Try 96
<ctl name="IIR1 INP1 MUX" value="DEC3" />
<ctl name="ADC4 Volume" value="13" /> <----Try 19
This stuff is directly under the adc3 Stuff, that i posted before.
The Problem is : The Camcorder Mic, is using the path "handset-dmic-endfire". And some other Stuff is using that too. You can try to raise the volume.
It will be good, that you give me feedback, if it will work !
If that dont work, change it back to stock-values. I have annother ideas to fix that

No Problem. Glad to help u guys ^^
I'm on CM 13 MM now but even on OOS3.1, H2OS or CM14 could not use the mic because the sound was too low .
After your tweak now even Allo works like a charm!
Thank you so much !

Hey guys,
Every time I install CM on a phone, I always notice that notifications are always a lot more quiet compared to stock. I have to imagine that this is erring on the side of caution by the CM guys.
Anyway, so I did some digging today and found the setting that you can change to fix this.
Open ES File Explorer, Enable Root Explorer, press on root explorer and mount system as r/w.
The file is located at:
system/etc/mixer_paths.xml
You'll need to have ES File Explorer (doesn't have to be this particular one... basically you need a root browser). Make sure to enable root browser and set system to r/w.
Just navigate to the above file, and look for this section (line 737):
<path name="speaker">
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM RX2 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="Two" />
<ctl name="RX7 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />
<ctl name="RX7 MIX1 INP2" value="RX2" />
<!-- 67 % of 124 (range 0 - 124) Register: 0x2E7-->
<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="83" />
<!-- 100 % of 8 (range 0-8) Register: 0x1E0-->
<ctl name="SPK DRV Volume" value="8" />
</path>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The line you're going to want to focus on is this one:
<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="83" />
FWIW, <!-- This is a comment and usually I tell you things that are important... not code -->.
This line above: <!-- 67 % of 124 (range 0 - 124) Register: 0x2E7--> Shows you the min and max values (0 - 124), so don't set some stupidly high number here outside of those ranges.
I started at a value of 95 (which I knew was extremely high, but I did it because I was trying to find the upper limit). Long story short, a value of 89 or 90 is right about perfect for volume vs distortion.
Anyway, hopefully this helps someone else.
Edit: in CM 12+ I have found it necessary to increase it to somewhere around 93 to 95.
What is the line to change for earpiece volume?

I'm going to take a total guess and go for line 906:

Keep in mind, this is for cm11, no other rom (although many other roms use cm as a base, so this MAY apply to them as well. YMMV.).
This edit worked on Stock GPE 4.4.4 ROM with no issues. I tried 90 first but its was right at the edge of speaker limit, so I changed it to 88 and its great. Louder than before and no soft anymore. Thanks for the neat edit.
Thanks!
Do you know how to increase the volume for call ringtones?
Again, thank you.
No, but I would just look through all the sections there, one is likely to jump out at you.

No, but whatever you change it to will be overwritten every time you install an update, which can be a bit irritating.
Hello everyone. I use the Android 4.1.1 (HTC Desire X) and I want to reduce the maximum media volume permanently at about 75-80% of the current one... I have found many apps and settings but they reduce it temporarily... Any help?
Thanks in advance...

Editing the mixer XML would do this.
And how can I do it?
From the root directory, go to /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml this file can break audio for you so please make a backup of the original before editing it, now you're going to be looking for something very similar or the same as I've pasted for example,
<path name="speaker">
<path name="fb-protection" />
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />
<ctl name="RX3 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="67" />
<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="67" />
<ctl name="RDAC5 MUX" value="DEM3_INV" />
<ctl name="LINEOUT1 Volume" value="16" />
<ctl name="LINEOUT3 Volume" value="16" />
<ctl name="RX3 HPF cut off" value="MIN_3DB_150Hz" />
<ctl name="SPK Amp Volume" value="4" />
<ctl name="SPK Amp CLK" value="On" />
</path>
For the lines that read RX3 Digital volume value and RX4 Digital volume value you'll be editing the values of those two lines. For example if I wanted a lower maximum volume I'd change both RX3 and RX4 from 67 to 66 for a lower 100% volume, the 67 will not be the same on your device however it'll be different from mine just so you don't use mine as an exact example, lastly make sure the permissions are good and the end result should be where you want it.
PS:You're going to need to edit this several times and reboot after each time to have the changes take effect.
Remember to listen for a comfortable volume level each time after editing so you don't make it too low. And last but not least, Goodluck!

This is assuming that you're rooted of course. If you need any help just ask me, I can edit this file for you if aren't comfortable with doing it yourself.
This particular tutorial is for the phones speaker by the way, If your question is intended for headphone use that can be changed also.
Really, thank you for your help. But I cannot find the file mixer_paths.xml. I use root explorer and root browser, but it is nowhere in system/etc. Maybe it is a hidden file?
It may be elsewhere within your device, I'm not too familiar with the root directory of HTC devices.
Credit for this goes to @langeveld024, in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/g3-t2936465
I've only modified and tested it for the Sprint LS990 version.
You need to be rooted, and use a root editor to modify the mixer_paths.xml file.
1. Make a backup of your existing file. You might want to make a nandroid backup so if something goes badly wrong you can recover easily.
2. In your root editor, search for the text string "speaker" (with the quote marks). You should find this path:
<path name="speaker">
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />
<ctl name="RX3 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="60" />
<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="60" />
<ctl name="RDAC5 MUX" value="DEM3_INV" />
<ctl name="LINEOUT1 Volume" value="16" />
<ctl name="LINEOUT3 Volume" value="16" />
<ctl name="RX3 HPF cut off" value="MIN_3DB_150Hz" />
<ctl name="SPK Amp Volume" value="3" />
</path>
ABOVE the row <ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="60" />
insert this line. I copied the existing RX3 Digital Volume row, pasted it, and changed RX3 to RX1.
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="60" />
When complete, it should look like this:
<path name="speaker">
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />
<ctl name="RX3 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="60" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="75" />
<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="60" />
<ctl name="RDAC5 MUX" value="DEM3_INV" />
<ctl name="LINEOUT1 Volume" value="16" />
<ctl name="LINEOUT3 Volume" value="16" />
<ctl name="RX3 HPF cut off" value="MIN_3DB_150Hz" />
<ctl name="SPK Amp Volume" value="3" />
</path>
A couple of notes:
(1) Your values may be different than 60. I've edited my mixer_paths multiple times, and no longer remember what the original values are. If yours are different, you can leave them at your current settings.
(2) RX1 = the earpiece, RX3 = the rear speaker. I set the rear speaker louder to get better balance between the two when the phone is face up.
(3) The sound seems to still be mono, not stereo, but there's a noticeable improvement in the sound quality when viewing videos.
Finally, save the file. Make sure permissions are 0644 (rw-,r--,r--). And reboot.
@meyerweb
The top lines should be like this:
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM RX2 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="Two" />
<ctl name="RX3 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />
<ctl name="RX1 MIX1 INP1" value="RX2" />
Then it will be stereo

Oh and u might want to add some of these, IF present in headphone path:
<ctl name="COMP0 Switch" value="1" />
<ctl name="DAC1 Switch" value="1" />
<ctl name="CLASS_H_DSM MUX" value="DSM_HPHL_RX1" />
<ctl name="HPHL DAC Switch" value="1" />
<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="30" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="30" /
Great find.

These will complete a proper configuration, but only if these line's are also found in the headphones path.
Cuz I pasted it from a note 4 path xD
I've made several surround sound mods for several device's (S5, xperia SP, LG G3, and put some time in others who wanna make it for LG G2 and note 4) and in almost every case some of these line's and maybe others may be needed for proper surround sound.
But it is very important to not copy my work by using line's found in some of my mods.
Every mod is device specific and therefore in every device may be other lines be used.
The base principal is the same for any device but it is very important to look in the headphones path and speaker-ear path. Use only those lines.
The lines I posted above are (as I said earlier this post) lines from a note 4, but may appear in ur stock headphones section or so.
The note 4 lines I posted as example will tell the earpiece to play better and louder and will help you to create real stereo effect. (At least, that's what I found out by trial and error)
If u want me to make an test version, send me the file and I'll look into it :thumbup:
Thanks. Attached my mixer_paths file. I haven't had time today to look into it and see if I have those lines or not.

Anyone have tihs working on ZV6? I am running stock ZV6 and cannot get this working. Tried editing myself and tried downloading one in post. It doesn't play anything out the front speaker.
You're on a rooted ZV6?
I'm using it on BarRin, which is a slimmed down ZV6, and it's working fine. Did you make sure permissions were set correctly after modding the file?
One more thought: Did you make only the changes in post #1, or did you also make the changes in post #2? I could never get those to work correctly.
Has anyone tested this on CM12?
Yes sorry assumed that I was rooted is implied to be even attempting this. I have only done post 1 mods, not trying to get stereo going. Permissions are correct, etc. It's not a big deal the increased sound level worked so that speaker by itself is much louder now anyway.
Are you running the stock global ROM and you've noticed that even at max volume the headphone jack output is too low? Here's how to fix it.
For some reason Xiaomi uses different mixer settings between global and China ROMs. The ones in China ROM give you substantially louder volume output.
Those settings are stored in 3 files:
/system/etc/mixer_paths.xml, /system/etc/mixer_paths_i2s.xml, and /system/etc/mixer_paths_tasha.xml (I think that only the last one is actually used by the system, but I didn't check it). To fix the audio volume problem you have to extract those files from the China ROM and overwrite the ones on your /system/ partition. Then you just need to reboot and done.
Here are those files from China stable ROM 8.1.3.0: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B0LGcdBSjQjKeERFRmRuM0ZXSlU?usp=sharing
GREAT... thank you so mush

I would actually like to do the opposite, lower the volume on ROMs different from the Global-Stable
Other ROMs I've tried (xiaomi.eu and CM based) increase the volume but also the background noise... At least on sensitive In-Ear monitors.
And CM14/Lineage even changes the sound in other ways, increasing the bass (yes, even with AudioFX "off").
I wish it wasn't so, I prefer the sound as unadultered as possible...
Its working. Thanks a lot
Could someone please upload the mixer_paths_tasha.xml file from the global stable ROM, I'd like to understand what changes are made from this to Xiaomi.eu and to CM/Lineage.
I was able to retrieve it from the ROM image.
It seems the differences are these, in the "headphone" mixer path:
Lines present in Global stable but not on Lineage:
<ctl name="COMP1 Switch" value="0" />
<ctl name="COMP2 Switch" value="0" />
<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="11" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="11" />
Lines changed from Global stable to Lineage (below are the original Global Stable lines):
<ctl name="SLIM RX5 MUX" value="AIF4_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM RX6 MUX" value="AIF4_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_6_RX Channels" value="Two" />
<ctl name="RX INT1_2 MUX" value="RX5" />
<ctl name="RX INT2_2 MUX" value="RX6" />
RX5 and RX6 become RX2 and RX3.
Changing these settings on the Lineage mixer paths file has an effect on sound, but it isn't consistent. Sometimes, volume and noise is lower (what I wanted), but sometimes it isn't. This with Spotify.
Pausing and resuming playing a song sometimes results in louder and sometimes in lower volume, so it seems it is not reading the setting all the time or consistently...

Pausing and resuming playing a song sometimes results in louder and sometimes in lower volume, so it seems it is not reading the setting all the time or consistently...

But do you know which lines should change to make the speaker louder?
The <ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="11" /> only increase the headphones volume.
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="11" />
The difference is huge btw from Global to China rom.

He simply compared the Global rom with the china ROM to spot the differences.
Can we use the files from the OP on the new Global Beta ROM, which is based on nougat? It's version 7.1.19

Try to compare the files first and see if there are any major differences.
If you are in a call and the other person hears himself or noises when the top mic is touched, by hair or hat..., you can try this:
[ROOT needed]
Edit this file:
\vendor\etc\mixer_paths_overlay_static.xml
find this sections:
<!-- Dual MIC devices -->
<path name="handset-dmic-endfire">
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1" />
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX8" value="1" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX7 MUX" value="DEC7" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX7" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX7" value="ADC3" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX8 MUX" value="DEC8" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX8" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX8" value="ADC1" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="Two" />
</path>
<path name="speaker-dmic-endfire">
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1" />
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX8" value="1" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX7 MUX" value="DEC7" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX7" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX7" value="ADC3" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX8 MUX" value="DEC8" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX8" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX8" value="ADC1" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="Two" />
</path>
and add this lines, so they look like this:
<!-- Dual MIC devices -->
<path name="handset-dmic-endfire">
<ctl name="DEC8 Volume" value="0" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="92" />
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1" />
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX8" value="1" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX7 MUX" value="DEC7" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX7" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX7" value="ADC3" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX8 MUX" value="DEC8" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX8" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX8" value="ADC1" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="Two" />
</path>
<path name="speaker-dmic-endfire">
<ctl name="DEC8 Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1" />
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX8" value="1" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX7 MUX" value="DEC7" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX7" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX7" value="ADC3" />
<ctl name="CDC_IF TX8 MUX" value="DEC8" />
<ctl name="ADC MUX8" value="AMIC" />
<ctl name="AMIC MUX8" value="ADC1" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="Two" />
</path>
This will set top mic sensitivity to 0, noise cancellation will not work but you can adjust "<ctl name="DEC8 Volume" value="0" />" as needed to have a little noise cancellation, default is 84. I've set it to 0 and i find it very good, no complains about the sound quality.
Also I've set 92 as the sensitivity for the lower mic, and it helps a little. Adjust <ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="92" /> as you wish, default is 84.
I don't know if this is the best solution, but it helped me, so I share
* to make changes to this file, you need to mount vendor and system in twrp (in twrp>mount>check both)
** please report this bug using Settings > Feedback > and check "Issue" and describe the problem you are having, hopping that Poco devs will look into it.
*** I've built a magisk module to apply this fix, it makes it easier for those who flash roms frequently.
Heyy @wizard8400 i have one other problem, the mic doesn't work in calls on speakerphone but works well with normal. Do you know the fix for this?? I've tried both miui and other custom roms and have same issue.
@ayush.gl I don't think I can help, but for starts you can test if is a hardware problem: go to CIT (tap a few times on kernel version) and test main mic and top mic, I think you need headphones(simple ones, without mic on them) . From what I have tested it seems that on speaker it uses the top mic, in normal call it uses both mics, mainly the bottom one and the top one is for ANC.

hi....thanks for the fix...was plagued with this issue for a while...quick question...this is safe correct? also if i still want noise cancellation instead of setting it to 0 i can set it to like 60 so it wouldn't be so sensitive? thanks

I have tested the mic, it shows passed. Mic also works with recorder, cam, whatsapp calls. Only for calls on speakerphone it doesn't work. Any suggestions

Hey guys, i'm rooted and copied the overlay file to a different location and edited it with es datei explorer, but when i try to copy it back to vendor etc it always says vendor write only and i get a error. What to do to make it writeable. Permission is granted for the datei explorer.....dunno what to do. Have this echo and its really annoying for the peoe i call
Edit: solved it by mounting vendor in recovery and copying my modified file into vendor/etc folder
I'm having the same issue, even at low volume. But I can't find the file specified. Do I have another issue?
@Zundrium
I don't know what ROM you have, I'm on xiaomi.eu latest beta(weekly). You have root and mounted system and vendor in twrp, right?
Please help me I do not know how to do it please help me thanks
@calandula
what you don't know, how to edit the file, how to root? If one of those, then you need to search or open a topic about that operation, else will talk off topic and is not a good practice to be offtopic on a forum. ex.: I can't explain here how to root pocophone f1, there is already a topic about this.

I used LineageOS and PixelExperience, both have the same issue, when rolling back to beryllium_global_images_V10.2.2.0.PEJMIXM I experience no issues.
I can also confirm that this isn't a firmware issue, I installed fw_beryllium_miui_POCOF1Global_V10.2.2.0.PEJMIXM in all cases.

Have done the same tests and getting the same results. Seems to be OS related and not firmware.
Cool you made a magisk module! If install it is it permanent? Or when i remove it it gos back to normal?
@Mooatreides magisk module is systemless, you can enable / disable this fix to apply/revert the file. After flashing a new version of the ROM and magisk, this fix is applied, or not depending by the state of the module.
