Hello everyone my XT1524 has a low call volume problem. The volume is so low I can barely understand what the other person's saying even in a quiet environment. Since, based on what I found on the internet, the loudspeaker and the earpiece are the same speaker and the phone plays music nice and loud it must be a software problem. I tried boosting the mixer_paths values but the audio gets too distorted while still being low. I also tried flashing the stock rom and a different kernel but nothing worked. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any help is appreciated thanks
Greetings, I am having same issue with my Moto XT1524. Could it be a hardware problem?
I don't think so since music plays at a high volume and that comes from the same speaker.
Having same problem like you......
Found a solution
I think i found a solution. It works but i don't know if it's the optimal way of doing it. You have to be rooted since you'll have to edit the mixer_paths.xml file.
The first thing you have to do is locate the mixer.paths file that is found in "/system/etc" now you can either copy it to your pc or you can edit it directly from your smartphone.
Then you'll have to change this block of code from line 547 to line 550:
Code:
<path name="voice-handset">
<path name="handset" />
</path>
to:
Code:
<path name="voice-handset">
<path name="speaker" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="70" />
</path>
You can change the RX3 volume to whatever value you prefer, just be careful when you set high values (over 84) since you might damage your speaker.
Then you just have to save, set permissions to "-rw-r--r--" and reboot.
I also have attached the already modded mixer.paths file from my Moto E.

I just fixed my father's phone with your solution and it seems to work great!
After more than one year of bearing the low in-call volume, my father couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to buy a new phone. I finally searched the internet for any solution and THIS was more than perfect!! You saved us about 150€ ^^
I did not root the phone. I only unlocked the bootlocker and then mounted the system partition via twrp (fastboot boot, no flashing), then I adb-pulled the mixer_paths.xml file and edited on my pc. Pushed it back to the phone, rebooted and voilà.
The sweet spot for the volume is between 50 and 60 imho. 70 was a little too loud. And for anyone wondering yes, lowering and increasing volume with hardware buttons still works flawlessly.

I'm glad I helped you
I also noticed that this fix doesn't work when other apps have to play something through the "earpiece" (for instance WhatsApp voice notes). To fix that you need to also replace on line 504:
Code:
<path name="voice-hac-handset">
<path name="handset" />
</path>
with:
Code:
<path name="voice-hac-handset">
<path name="speaker" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="70" />
</path>
It's pretty much the same thing but done in this other place.
It was a great help for me too. Though I have one more problem.
When I am on speaker the mic do not record any voice though it is not a problem while on handset. Any help? @x-flyer
Are young saying that if you are on a call and you put your phone on speaker, then the other person hears nothing because the mic doesn't pick up anything?

Bang on. Tried searching in all forums online yet no help
Tonight I'll try to replicate the problem, in the mean time, are you sure the problem wasn't there before this modification? You could try to revert it and see if the problem persists.

Sorry to trouble you but the problem wasn't due to your mod. I posted this question in a separate thread but thought you may be able to help me.
Your mod though helped me gain volume through earpiece.

If you are rooted you can just download an app like "Root Browser Classic", navigate to the root of the phone "/" and then go to "/system/etc". If you are not rooted you can actually just boot into TWRP and use adb commands to pull and push the file.
Yes rooted but unable to find that file

I've just noticed that there's an error in the post. It should be "mixer_paths.xml" instead of "mixer.path", so maybe that's the problem. Anyway I'm trying to download the rom from AFH but it's being super slow right now, so that's going to take a while.

It looks like that the mixer_paths.xml file, for your rom, is located in "system/vendor/etc".

Anyone knows how to root this phone? I've tried literally EVERYTHING, Even the forum here where you can see all Root methods and nothing. Vroot, Kingroot, One Click Root, IOroot, Nothing. I Really wanna root this device because i won't even lose the warranty because here LG Allow phone rooting.
Sorry for my Engrish
Same here.
Need a root to allow moving apps to SD...
Up..?

@Beckmesser You can try from adb to reboot in download mode, the command is like
adb reboot download
or
adb reboot bootloader
or
adb reboot fastboot
I cannot find a root method working for this phone, let me know if you succeed

This is the one-click method based on the guide you linked above, it will probably don't work because it seems that the X150 can't be rooted yet (or no one knows how)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951
This is a "new" method based on the above that you're trying
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3129197
Be warned that using methods that are not tested on this device can potentially brick your device, i have tested some on the X150 of my friend but no one worked.
Good Luck

Someone..?
Mine is rootet now... don´t know how... tried several times with KingRoot - but no luck.
But then my battery went empty and the phone shut down. As I plugged in the charger I had a kind of boot-loop (only the animated LG logo again and again). Then I pressed the power on button long to boot the phone - it updated and was rooted somehow...
I don´t know how it happend.
Anyway... still can´t install / move Apps to the SD card There is no option to do that in the "Apps" menu - and App2SD or whtever is telling me that it is not possible, or I have to create a 2nd partition or whatever...
The new version of Kingroot was able to root my device with no problem, try it for yourself.
http://i.imgur.com/wsDMrnh.png
Does anyone know about the key combination to put that model on download mode?
Its able now to move apps to sd card or still on device's storage?
Only comment I've got to be root on my LG Bello II KigRoot after the first try with earlier versions of this program and other programs.

Hey, guys!
I have just registered only to post this reply.
After extensive internet browsing and hours of trials, MobileGo application from WonderShare
since this is my first post, i am unable to insert links
has finally rooted my phone. Download it, allow debugging mode and click on "One-Click Root".
After that, install, for example Root Browserapk by JRummy Apps Inc, and do the following:

You need root access for this to work.
Look for platform.xml in
/system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
Open it with text editor and add the green line to this
Code:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
</permission>
So that it looks like this
Code:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
[COLOR="SeaGreen"]<group gid="media_rw" />[/COLOR]

Now save it and set the file permissions to 0644 that is, rw-r–r.
Reboot and that's all.

shantanu223 said:
OK..let me clarify few doubts for new users 21st Build
1) SIM 1 Calling / Data working. In-call volume working
2) Sim 2 Calling / Data works but In-call volume NOT working. Basically you won't hear anything.
3) Wifi works, GPS works.
Persisting issue: SIM 1 network mode shows WCDMA Preffered in engineering mode (*#*#4636#*#*) however network type always sticks to 3G mode. It does not switch to 2G when 3G is unavailable hence there will no network coverage at all.
Probable fix: While installing the ROM, insert 2 SIM cards in SIM1 and SIM2 slot both. Make sure the after first boot, both Sim cards must be initialized. After initialized you can set preferred data SIM as SIot 1. The network mode will be set to GSM/CDMA (Auto Prl). Thats when SIM 1 will be able to auto switch 3G and 2G and network coverage will be stable.
***Initializing only SIM2 card slot after first boot might make wifi intermittent. Hence advised to initiate both slots after first boot time.***Initializing only SIM1 card slot after first boot will set network mode to WCDMA Preferred and network coverage will be unstable as stated above***.
Hence advised to initiate both slots after first boot time.

Flashes fine with official TWRP.

Instructions to extract zip from RUU to flash from sdcard with hboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62680799&postcount=4
Here, I uploaded official Lollipop 0P9CIMG.zip for you guys.
copy 0P9CIMG.zip to external sd card. Remove card.
After flashing stock recovery,
fastboot oem lock, insert sdcard, and then reboot into hboot.
remove the file after it finally finishes multiple reboots into htc stock.
I strongly suggest updating your firmware to htc lollipop with an official ruu or you may have hardware issues like touchscreen, wifi, and/or bluetooth problems. It might work with kitkat firmware though, and you are free to try if you want. Post results if you do.
It appears kitkat firmware can cause not only touch issues but wifi issues.

Okay ,
Rom and firmware are two different things... inside OTA's it contains a firmware.zip at which updates bootloader, radio, etc.... so without taking firmware upgrades and just installing what's released on XDA will lead you to bugs other users don't have ..
For Example :
4.4.4 firmware will work with 5.0.2 fine for some users and some have to update too 5.0.2 for Wi-Fi to work...
But any Android version past 5.0.2 you need to have either lollipop firmware or marshmallow firmware in order for Wi-Fi to work...

Disclaimer: Void warranty, not responsible for anything, you know flashing is your choice and any damage is your own problem.
ESPECIALLY with a beta like this.
Wipe cache, data, and system for clean flash.
Dirty flash not recommended but may work.
if you dirty flash don't complain about bugs.
verify they happen on a clean flash too, without installing any other zips. then post your issue, and send me a logcat.
If you install gapps, use the ARM/6.0 versions, and either install them on a clean flash or wipe the dalek-cache before rebooting.
It's still beta, so expect weird bugs.

You'll want to grab the a5ul version in the front folder. Newest date.
Advise placing the md5sum file with it on the sdcard before flashing, TWRP will check that the file was downloaded without corruption that way.

The gcc-5.3 fix commits are spread all over the android tree, and JustArchi's flags are in android_build... I'm not going to fork and maintain all that stuff. I'll post individual commits for patching later, and a squid branch of device_htc_a5ul for the optimisations. Use the cm-13 branch and it'll build with all the regular CM stuff. Use the optimised one, and you may be hunting down fixes with Google for errors that pop up through the build.
Thanks to @Grarak for all the hard work on upstream source code and fixes for the a5. And CM of course. And all the device maintainers, developers, forum posters, and whoever else I ruthlessly kanged bits and parts of this from.

I found a work-around for not being able to flash zip files in TWRP if your SD card is formatted as Internal Storage. The app Flashify from the Google Play Store will do the job.
You do, however, have to pay $3.99 for the app if you want to flash more than 3 zip files per day....

I found an app in the Play Store called Root Essentials that has amongst its many features, an Adoptable Storage feature that will partition your SD card & lets you use part of it as Internal Storage and part of it as Portable Storage. You can save flashable items to the portable partition and they are accessible in recovery.

WiFi and Bluetooth are having issues inserting firmware.
The camera driver can't identify the sensors yet.
And GPS is missing a stock lib that currently makes it bootloop.
Glad service and data are working for more than VM USA models.
Oh, and that high battery drop is probably from it trying to turn on WiFi. It won't give up and the phone actually gets pretty hot at the top unless you let it sleep.
Thanks for info.
so for whatever reason, when I was testing early on, /system/lib/hw/gps.default.so seemed to be causing bootloops.
Well, now it doesn't anymore. And my gps is working.
I'll upload another build in a while. Or you can try
Code:
adb root
adb remount
adb push gps.default.so /system/lib
and see if it fixes the first released build. Mine is different (experimentation, y'all) and it may possibly still bootloop the first release.
If it does, and you have adb enabled and authorized, you can just
Code:
adb root
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/lib/gps.default.so
and that should fix the botloop.
anyway... here, try it. It may be a while before I upload another build, takes a while.

not right off but I'll add it to the OP.
did my cm12.1 12/25 build detect any sim? mostly same device folder but the RIL has been updated for 6.0.1. If the lollipop version didn't see a sim card there's not much I can do without one of those in hand to test on.
gonna test it and let you know, I've used other cm12.1 roms that worked though
your cm12.1 12/25 detected my sim

I haven't seen any green line glitches using the latest caf adreno 3xx drivers from December, the nexus 5 version from the Qualcomm zip, using them with either device tree.
Something isn't working with the single sim, not recognized, so no cell functions yet.
WiFi and Bluetooth are spot-on though.

For me incoming calls are not working with your build ( did not tested the 12-31 build) , and i have the "disconnecting" problem when ending a call like in cm 12.1.

Do you have single or dual sim? A5 model variant (chl etc.)?
Carrier?
The 12/31 is the only marshmallow build yet. All my a5 ROMs are in a single shared folder as yet.
But if you're having service problems with the cm12.1 builds odds are the cm13 won't treat you any better.

What is your model variant (chl, ul), CDMA or gsm, and carrier? Gsm and dual sim phones are having issues with my builds.
Hello everyone, a few weeks ago I dropped my phone and it cracked the rear body of the phone. A few days later I also updated to Android Pie.
I'm not sure, but I think that it has damaged the speaker of the phone (I added the information of the update to Pie because it could also be that it was the update the cause of the problem, but I doubt it), every time I speak on the phone, even at most, I do not feel well the interlocutor.
I tried various solutions and I realized that by modifying a few lines of the file mixer_paths_tavil.xml you can increase at least a bit 'the volume of audio devices on the phone. I identified the lines in question and I copied the file to a PC, then deleted the one on the phone and replaced it with the modified one. Obviously the permissions have been set to 777. As a result, the phone no longer plays any audio. Then I tried, with great effort, various file managers, root explorer, solid explorer, fx, etc.. and I can easily edit the file, but when I save it and restart I still do not hear any sound. If I try to play music I get an error message, like the phone does not support the format, etc..
At this point I tried to do a test: I just added a character in a comment in the same file and I saved: same result, the phone does not make any sound.
From the various guides it seems instead that with any file manager that supports the root it is feasible to modify it but it is not so, so I ask if you have any idea about editing that file.
Thank you!

This is basically what some of the various audio mods by @Whiskeyomega do.
How did you identify the files, paths necessary? Pie is different from Oreo and Nougat before that. Did you by chance use Oreo path?
Why not use Refurbish mode in Dev Patched LGUP and go back to pure stock. Bonus points if you go back to Oreo for now until you get your audio straightened out...
You also know the Oreo mixer paths if you want to boost audio more, if you're not sure about the Pie mixer paths.

Thank you so much for your reply!
I've simply searched the file mixer_paths_tavil.xml and found it on vendor/etc/ folder.
Sorry but I do not understand what is "Refurbish mode in Dev Patched LGUP".
I am using a stock Pie, TWRP FLASHABLE VERSION (ROM) (v3) (this is the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/development/h930-lg-v30-european-market-t3951898).
So do you think that the low volume is due to Android 9 and not to the fall of the phone?
Sure, I can reinstall a stock Oreo and then check if the speaker volume is ok, but I'm getting the feeling that the phone drop is the cause of the problem.
Anyway I can try!

See post #2 of that thread to downgrade in Refurbish mode back to Oreo, using Dev Patched LGUP. Refurbish mode should completely replace the firmware on the phone.

See if your audio returns. It should at least reverse any audio editing snafu.
If you still have no audio, then it's something with your hardware.

I replaced the modded mixer_path.xml with the stock xml but it didn't change anything. I thought it is for dual speaker sound.
Flashed Oreo and refleshed Pie but nothing changes, the volume is always very low. Surely the speaker is broken.
Next week I'll try to replace it
Thnk you to everybody!
anyone here tried modding the mixerpath.xml file to increase the headset volume? it too soft sounding even at max

Also interested in this. I agree too that the wired headphone volume is too low. Can the root directory be modified directly with a file explorer with Android 10 now I wonder. It seems that any attempt I make to modify root files on my device is denied. I'm Using Root with Magisk and Solid Explorer.
as of 11th May, no official TWRP yet. any changes to the system file causes the whole phone to go on softbrick, requiring it to be reflashed.

You are allowed to modify system when on MIUI EU rom.
Give me the value to modify in order I test it. Sound is lower than other phone I can compare with. MI9t and Redmi8
ok. so the file needed to be modified is mixer_paths.xml under system/vendor/etc . the values needed to be changed is in this line
default values below. HPHL and HPHR are the 3.5mm jack volumes
<!-- Volume controls -->
<ctl name="WSA_RX0 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="WSA_RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX_RX0 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX_RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX_RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="20" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="20" />
<ctl name="EAR SPKR PA Gain" value="G_DEFAULT" />
everytime i change any of the value and overwrite the phone softbricks
if anyone here knows how to reinsert this system file back without bricking please share your ideas. Thanks

You can do that only with EU rom.
I'll try it today on EU 11.05 Magisk boot and x-plore.
I don' have twrp installed yet.
EDIT:It is done!
I raised value first to 50 and then to 80 without a huge effect as volume increase.
May be not the right parameter to be modified?
If you try the same way modification, don't forget to remove Magisk root right given to your file explorer BEFORE phone reboot. (brick is reported)
I mind you've better to move to EU rom, it is much better than stock and this allow system file modification.
or maybe its RX1, RX2 ?
Please let me understand, If I install twrp magisk and xiaomi eu latest rom the problem that is reported with root and file explorers DOESNT EXIST? If I understood right?
Thanks in advance

My verified conditions are:
EU 11.05 boot patched Magisk.
I am sure phone reboot goes well IF Xplore (the file exlorer I use) ROOT RIGHT, (in Magisk Manager setup) are removed before doing reboot.
I DIDN't test reboot with root engaged.....
PS/ go back to related topic. thanks
Thanks so the problem still exists

anyone here have a solution for this? still bricking even with the 11.0.8 rom
Wish there was a fix for this. It seems that mods to the system partition are only possible via Magisk modules, maybe a mod could be made like that?
I have Viper4Android successfully installed on my 9S which does improve things but I would much prefer to have the volume raised properly by altering the mixer_paths values. We can only hope.
Low quality hardware. issue exists on every single xiaomi device which has 3.5mm port. Try usb c port instead. The quality is much much better.

Can the 9s/Pro output audio via the USB port?

One Solution:
Change the region in additional settings in settings app to United States or St. Helena.

I can confirm audio output via USB. I bought a type c to 3.5mm DAC from aliexpress for around £10. Volume is definitely louder and cleaner when it is louder.

Install Volume Booster GooDev apps, set increasing volume of 7-8%, the headphone will play as loud as you expected, while still keep all tones sharp...
Hi, so I have an unrooted S10e and a rooted S7 edge. On the S7 edge, I have a game called "drag racing" and want to transfer the save file over to the S10e. On the S7 edge, I can navigate in data/data, and find the save files. On the S10e I can't do that.
I have tried. All failed.
1. Adb backup/restore using PC. (It backed up a 1kb file)
2. Navigating on Android Studio using device explorer on PC. Every single file came up as " run-as package not debuggable". So I couldn't access the contents.
3. File explorers that allow additional searching privileges like "Total commander", couldn't access enough.
Anyone have any ideas? On the S7 edge the save file is right there. But I can't move it anywhere on the S10e.
Thanks!

The game is called "drag racing" by creative mobile.
Also, I'm not planning on rooting my s10e, honestly the phone is fine as stock.
I just feel that I got so close with my findings and think that there's something that I'm quite close to get. The Adb stuff looked promising, but it didn't work. (The Adb stuff worked with other apps)

Probably you need to edit the AndroidManifest.xml file in .apk.
Below is one taken from my app that has backup allowed.
