Hey guys...
I switched over from a sammy based rom to a cm10 based one and the only thing that bugs me(very very much!) is that the speaker volume is very low compared to my previous rom.
On sammy based roms there was a file named default_gain.conf in /etc directory where you could modify output sound.
On cm10 i see there's a file named m0 under /etc/sound directory which is similar to default_gain.conf.
When i changed values in m0 file and rebooted,like i did with default_gain.conf before,sound got a litle higher volume but only just a litle bit...it's still very low for me...
Anybody knows how to make this thing louder please??(without equalizer software and other things like that,i want to keep my phone light)
EDIT:I managed to get it to play as loud as sammy based roms but the bass is terrible....
It's overpowering and makes the speaker boom no matter how low i set it...too bad....
I'll switch back to my previous rom now.

Flash siyah kernel, it comes with nice sound tweaks.
Thanks for the suuggestion.
I know this though,i flashed it but it still doesn't sound as good as sammy based...
Plus i don't want to use siyah as my daily driver.
did u try acid v5 sound mod? or megabassbeats?

I tried acid....it's very good in general.
But it spoils the natural sound for me,which i like to have plus no effect on speaker output...(i'm kinda of an audiophile and have a very sensitive ear).
Anyway i switched back to sammy rom and now everything's fine...
Hello!
Unleash the audio quality of your Redmi Note 3!
This is a sound mod especially designed for the Redmi Note 3 Pro (kenzo /kate) and its Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 chipset.
It also offers option for enhancing audio via speaker,
It is a hardware level modification that enables the disabled CLS_H_HIFI DAC mode of our chipset that enhances the sound.
The aim of this mod is to offer the ability to take full advantage of the IIR filter implementation offered by Qualcomm audio codecs (WCD93xx). The IIR filters are implemented in hardware as a cascade of five biquads that can be designed independently.
FEATURES :
It enhances the soundstage and just ensures a clean audio to be put-out by the hardware. It increases the dynamic range of bass and treble the device can handle.
It enables HiFi or high performance audio on your smartphone without any hissing sound.
The filters are implemented in hardware and independent of the ROM, kernel, and media playback software used.
It is fully compatible with other audio mods like Ainur audio, ARISE sound, ExtremeBeats, and also Viper, James DSP
The additional impact on battery usage is virtually non-existent
Options for enhancing speaker audio:
HTC 10, which uses the earpiece as a secondary speaker
Stereo, which uses the earpiece as the second speaker to provide true stereo sound from speakers.
INSTALLATION :
1. Download the latest release of shox audio from the drive link attached to the second post.
2. Flash zip in TWRP recovery.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions and select the appropriate options.
4. Feel the shox effect!
Note : You have to reflash the mod after every ROM or kernel update
DOWNLOADS:
Download the latest version of shox audio below:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5ratNhH-7mGU3AtTVFmekE4VG8
PS:Tested and working on a kenzo/kate smartphone on all roms.
This mod just enhances the soundstage and just ensures a clean audio to be put-out by the hardware. It increases the dynamic range of bass and treble the device can handle.(heavy equalizer and viper4android users definitely know what I'm talking about)
Link to official viper4android website:
https://vipersaudio.com/blog/
The zip file you download is not a recovery flashable one. It contains the Viper4Android apk. So extract the zip and install the apk.. Please dont complain about it.
Recommended tips:
1)I recommend AGNi kernel by @psndna88, Darkness kernel by @MOVZX or Guyver kernel by @MEGAX91 because it has slimbus overclock which enhances audio quality and my mod on his kernel gives the best audio experience. I have also included patched kernels of other devs also if you need them too..
2)Flash Ainur Sauron audio mod made by @UltraM8 along with this mod for a much better experience.This is currently the best audio mod which is the cleanest..Please thank him for his great work...
Link here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/soundmod-ainur-audio-t3450516
3)Users who need more tweaking to the audio can use Viper4Android.
4)I have included some of the best IRS samples for viper4android(according to me). So try it out if you are using viper4android for complete control over your music. Extract the zip and place the contents in viper4android/kernel directory of your internal storage.(the zip provided is not recovery flashable).
5)People who use MX player for videos can enable SW audio boost which will further increase the sound levels through speakers without any distortions..
It is recommended not to listen through speakers at full volume for longer periods.. Keep the volume low by 1 or 2 steps from the max.
6)People who think that the present max volume through headphones isn't enough can install viper4android and increase output gain to 6dB in master gate..
My personal Viper4Android settings:
Master power - on
Playback gain control - off
FET compressor - off
Viper DDC - on, set to sennheiser hd558
Spectrum extension - on, set to 1.0
Firequalizer - off
Convolver - off
Differential surround, field surround, headphone surround+, reverberation - all set to off
Dynamic system - off
Viper bass - off
Viper clarity - off
Tube sound simulator - off
AnalogX - on, set to extreme
Some other info:
My earphones :
1) Sennheiser cx180 street-II - daily outdoor use.
2) Skullcandy Ink'D - used rarely.
3) Sony MDR-ED12LP - used when I'm at home.
List of smartphones I own right now:
1) Xiaomi Redmi Note 3(kenzo)
2) Samsung Galaxy S(i9000)
3) Xiaomi Redmi Note 4(Mido)
4) Samsung Galaxy Note(n7000)
CHANGELOGS:-
V1 - initial release.
V1.1 - tweaked the values a bit to further remove the hissing noise as reported by @MurdererFight.(thanks bro for being the first tester and reporting me)
V1.2 - added some tweaks which will truly enable HiFi audio through DAC with the help of a magisk module..now the DAC detects the impedance of the earphone or the headphone connected.this ensures proper voltage levels through the amp for the earphones/headphones.
V1.3 - Merged surround audio mod along with hifi audio..
Enjoy stereo-like sound on your kenzo (earpiece speaker also outputs sound now xD, videos feel more alive to watch now).Thanks to @AgentBuBu for the soundmod.
I just merged his mod with mine..
V1.4 - Changed the earpiece thresholds to remove the crackling sound and readjusted both the speaker sound to the same level. Now enjoy stereo like never before on your kenzo's speakers. Thanks to @Androbots for reporting this.Also made the mod universal by making a magisk and SuperSU version..
V1.45 - Readjusted the values again for both earpiece and loudspeaker to remove distortion completely, increased audio volume through headphone jack without disturbing the quality. So, now there's a very little drop in the audio but the quality is absolute eargasm.
v1.5 - Readjusted and increased the volume of both earpiece and speaker without inducing distortions. The sound level is more than stock now.
And further pushed the volume through headphones for louder volume..Now the stereo feel is amazing..
And included biQuads support for headphones for expert users. Now you can correct the frequency response of your beloved cans, IEMs.
Link for biQuads is here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70194192&postcount=226
v1.6 - This time made sure to keep the audio levels same at the earpiece and loudspeaker to increase the stereo and ambience.
Very little changes to headphone volume again. Removed some unused codes. Its true stereo now. Enjoy the stereo on speakers like never before
v1.7 - Fixed the messed up headphone gain as reported by @AravindhStanley and now has 2 new versions...
1) Stereo Version - The present version which you guys are using..earpiece acts as the left speaker and loudspeaker acts as the right speaker. The speaker volume and earpiece volume is balanced
2) HTC 10 Version - The new one!!!! it is based on the new HTC 10 loudspeaker audio output.. Its mono but still uses earpiece for sound. But here the earpiece acts as a mid range and bass booster and significantly increases the detail of sound heard through speakers. Here, the loudspeaker is louder than the earpiece. The earpiece just adds detail here. So don't complain about unbalanced audio levels as its kept unbalanced.
This version removes all the audio libs to disable audio offloading to the dsp..Now the audio goes straight to the DAC untouched..
So please flash your audio mods once again after flashing the mod to get them back working.
Now biQuads is fixed by the founder @chdloc himself..So its finally working now....
I recommend all the users to try both the version and keep the ones which you like.
The link to new biQuads is here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70194192&postcount=226
v1.7fix - This is only for HTC 10 version...Many users would have experienced no audio from the loudspeaker after flashing v1.7(it wasn't intended to work like that). This issue has been fixed. Now enjoy audio on both earpiece and loudspeaker. Loudspeaker has louder volume than earpiece as earpiece just acts like a mid range and bass booster like before.. Enjoy the sound now..
v1.8 - Made significant changes to headphone audio....
Now the audio is decoded at 24bit 192khz..but still the output is 16bit 48khz..wait for the Poweramp to fix it or if anyone knows how to edit audioflinger please pm me...if audioflinger is hacked, 24bit 192khz audio can be made systemwide....
And enabled hardware Dolby and DTS-HPX support...
Use any of the sound mod which has support for them...you will feel a difference..
Nothing much changed in speaker audio..
Reflash your audio mods again....dirty flash
v1.9 - Rebased with the stock mixer_paths.XML and edited it from the start again..its much clean and removed useless codes from the file..
Fixed the bug - in-call voice through speakers even though the phone was in earpiece mode as reported by @AravindhStanley
Finally the mod is universal! One flashable zip for all ROMs and kernels so no hustle of magisk or su versions.
Dropped the HTC10 version as I dint see much potential in it..It will be continued only on demand..
Temporarily removed biQuads support as it requires an in-depth inspection..will include it in the next build..
V2.0 - *Fixed low audio volume on headphones as reported by many....
*Introducing a stock version, which only tweaks the headphone audio leaving the speakers untouched(stock config)
*Reincarnated the HTC10 version as requested by @mahmoudthassan
V2.1 - *added bass filter for earpiece in both htc10 and stereo version to protect the speaker..
*added a bass filter for headphones also to improve bass range which also reduces distortion..
*created an uninstaller for the mod..
V2.2 - *renamed the mod from HI-FI AUDIO PATCH to shox Audio Mod.
*finally implemented biQuads and added my sound signature to the headphone audio output.
*increased the amp volume to 16 to increase output volume.
*included patched kernels which disable audio codec power gating also for the mod as it is mandatory.
V2.3 -
*Finally integrated aroma installer to the mod which contains all the version in one zip file.
*added high impedance version enabled compander which maxes out the amp gain to default 20 for higher impedance earphones (greater than 32ohm) along with the default one which keeps compander off and amp gain to 16
*enabled CLS_H_LP mode for all other audio streams except headphones(this is always CLS_H_HIFI, its the reason this audio mod was made lol) in order to save power while playing audio through speakers.
*removed high pass filter at 150hz for htc10 variant which was present in v2.2 to enhance music experience.
V2.4 -
*fixed installation script bugs as the wrong versions were getting installed which were different from the selected one.
*built on a newer aroma base borrowed from darkness kernel private build.(thanks to @MOVZX) and made the installer simple and effective. Surp
*reverted CLS_H_LP HPH Mode for speakers and earpiece stream because of audio issues. Its always CLS_H_HIFI for all streams.
*disabled compander for high impedance (greater than 16ohms)mixer paths as I felt that it caused a loss in treble and highs.
*implemented biQuads for loudspeaker in stereo version to make thr sound match with earpiece. Now both the speakers output nice and detailed music.
V2.5 -
*made many changes to aroma installer.
*added everything to the aroma installer. Now you can install and uninstall the mod from a single aroma zip itself.
*changed the aroma theme from ICS to HTC.
*best part - added DPG patch to the aroma installer itself. From now there's no need of flashing DPG version of the kernels. Just select yes for patch cmdline disable power gating and the anykernel2 script patches the kernel to work with shox Audio(thanks to @osm0sis and @scrubjay55).
V2.6 -
*added some hardware eq presets using biQuads based on 5-band parametric EQ from neutron music player.
*there are currently 7 presets including the shox signature -
1)shox(default)
2)Acoustic
3)Rock
4)Pop
5)Bass
6)Treble
7)Middle
*these eq presets does not depend on any app and works for all headphone streams.
*removed OTA survival as the users have to flash shox again anyway to patch cmdline after they update a ROM. So removed it as it is kinda useless.
*updated the in-built cmdline patch script which dynamically detects the present cmdline and adds DPG patch lines only when it is not present in cmdline. So no more confusion of patching DPG for any kernel from now on.
*rebased on new dark material AROMA theme borrowed from Zetsubou kernel(thanks to @Ashish94).
V2.65 -
*made minor changes to the anykernel script which now properly patched the cmdline without breaking the selinux for some users.
V3.0 -
*added flat eq.
*added neutral eq
*added Oreo support
*audiophile mode.
*speaker privacy mode.
*speaker boost mode.(needs to be fixed. Doesn't work yet)
*new flash script written from scratch.(added commands as writing from scratch would be a nightmare)
Guide to create your own biQuads:
This is a guide for creating your own biQuads which replaces the existing ones in the mod.
As you all know, biQuads is a set of 5 IIR filters which can be used to enhance the music and also correct the frequency response of the headphones/earphones which you use.
Continue from here only if you know what sampling rate, bit width, lowpass, highpass, peak filters mean. Otherwise google those terms and learn what they are and what they do
So here's how to design your own biQuads and listen the music in your way:
1) Download biQuads flashable zip from the XDA thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/reference-qualcomm-audio-codec-iir-t3093000
Thank @chdloc for this great work.
2) Flash the zip in recovery and reboot.
3) You will see an app named biQuads in the apps drawer.
4) Open the app and give it root access.
5)As I told earlier, there are biQuads numbering from 1 to 5
6)After every filter you create for every number, tap design biQuad and wait for 20-30sec. You will be redirected to another window where the app check whether the filter is designed correctly or not with a spectrum graph. After that, increase the biQuad number
7) Do the same step 6 again and again from 1 to 5 until your biQuads is ready.
8)Finally, select review filter where you get a final graph and parameters of different IIR filters.
9)Then select save and give your biQuads a name(make sure there are no spaces included in the name). Click accept and the file gets saved in /sdcard with the filename you specified.
10)Open the *.coeffs from /sdcard where * is the name you specified for the biQuads in a text editor.
11) Replace IIR2 with IIR0 wherever found and change INP1 to INP2 wherever found.
12) Finally copy everything from the file and replace the contents in the mixer paths(present in /system/etc) under path name headphones. You will find similar lines there which are my biQuads already implemented.(make sure that you file editor has root access)
13) Replace those lines perfectly and align the lines as they were. Save the file when you are done and reboot.
14) Magic.

You are right..
This globally changes the experience as this enhances audio at a hardware-level instead of Dolby which enhances at a software level.
Please try this and inform me about your new audio experience.

Thanks for your help.
Thanks for your work!
There are applications that output sound depending on the proximity sensor (for example, watsapp, telegram). You turn on the voice message, bring the phone to your ear and the sound from the external speaker switches to conversational (that could be heard in public places).
Is it possible to implement it in your fashion or is it technically impossible?
Is it any difference between this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/themes/magisk-stereo-speaker-mod-oneplus-6-t3814512
And u r mod
It literally says EXACTLY what the differences are in the main post dude!
- AML support
- Unity support
This basically means:
- This can work flawlessly with other audio mods.
- This can work with or without Magisk.

Try to create app like op5t stereo mod which helps to control sound parameters like mono, true stereo etc
Sorry to say this but providing any form of GUI or additions to the mod isn't really in the scope of what I set out to achieve here.
The code, however, is freely available on GitHub using the link from the main post - I'm more than happy for anyone to fork the code and add any additional functionality they wish to.
My aim here is simply to provide AML support so things like Atmos, ViPER, etc. can be used seamlessly alongside the mod. I also converted the mod to use "patch" instead of just overwriting the file and switched to Unity so that it could support being flashed directly for those not wishing to run Magisk.
Confirm this is working flawlessly together with ainur sauron & viper4android. Awesome mod for our device! Thank you very much!

Yes it works with Atmos - I ran that for a while myself - worked great.
If you're wondering - I ran the latest build from: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=247761
Not my work - just linking to it since the main post for Atmos links to a 5 month older version by the same dev - very odd.

Do any of these audio mods actually improve speaker quality? The speaker crackles at high volumes right out of the box. Would love to improve it, but wiping to unlock bootloader only seems worth it if there's a noticeable difference

Some of the mods can have a considerable amount of effect on the audio quality but things like Atmos are not going to resolve any audio "popping" or distortion. ViPER may be able to help mitigate the issue.
The purpose of this mod, however, is actually just to enable the earpeace speaker as a secondary speaker so instead of just the one mono speaker at the button - you have a kind of stereo effect (i.e. 2 audio sources.)
I'm sure others can guide better on which specific ViPER settings may help with the issue you're facing but it may be worth tinkering if you're passionate about resolving the issue. That having been said - unlocking the bootloader and rooting does lose you OTA functionality so it's something to keep in mind.
How can permanent increase earpiece volume? If I increase it with ex kernel manager I turns back to normal after switching to standby
What is "AML" and there I get the aml module? ?
I have installed the v5 of stereo mod along with AML and Vioer4Amdroid. How do i control the volume and gain levels of earpiece? I am not able to find the control settings anywhere.

You can change these values in a kernel manager. Also i think you'll need a custom kernel.

Ohh thanks. Can you please let me know which kernel works the best for it?
---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 PM ----------
Which kernel manager to use to control the sound settings of earpiece?
A kernel manager can do this for you - Kernel Aduitor is probably a good option.
Any kernel though mate - they all have that option as far as I'm aware.

Can you post a screenshot i have installed kernel auditor but still see no option to control earpiece volume or gain
Hi everyone!
With this thread I want to present to you a cool mod I created, nicely packed inside of a Magisk module.
This module enables PseudoStereo on our Le Max 2, effectively enabling the earpiece to output media audio alongside the main speaker.
Since the speakers are not positioned left and right, and do not have the same output volume, a true stereo effect cannot be achieved, hence both speakers put out both L and R channels simultaneously.
Unfortunately, the Le Max 2's earpiece speaker isn't that loud, so the effect is *really* subtle, even though it becomes a little more noticeable the higher the volume is.
I could increase earpiece gain, but that would distort the sound and probably wouldn't be healthy for the speaker itself (you can do it yourself if you want, but I don't recommend it).
I thought I would make this since I found some people around searching, like me, for a mod of this kind.
The module replaces a file inside the vendor partition, hence it has been tested by me on the following Treble ROMs: AOSP Extended, AICP, AOSiP and RevengeOS.
Does it work on non-treble ROMs? Probably not, at least for now, but you can always try.
Not working on stock ROM, neither AOSP Extended with EUI-Audio zip flashed. Working on it!
This mod can work in conjunction with other audio mods (Arise, Viper, Dolby), provided you install it first, before installing them. (Thanks to @lucian1983 for testing this)
Changelog:
Code:
- v1.2 - Fixed a problem where no sound would come out from the earpiece when an audio message was being played through it;
- Default volume is now 92, earpiece sounds a bit louder;
- Added a new zip file (namely HighVolume) which raises default volume to 100 [B](WARNING: could distort, especially with bass-heavy music)[/B].
- v1.1 - Fixed a problem where the earpiece would keep outputting media audio even if headphones are connected.
- v1 - Initial release
Hope you enjoy!

Special thanks to @Dante63 for his helpful video
I flashed it through magisk manager ,it did not work for me.also tried through twrp clearing cache but no effect noticeable.
Hi thanks for the mod. It's working in RevengeOS.
I think it would be even better if earpiece was louder at low volume. That would make it more noticeable.
Edit: Sound comes from earpiece even when headphones connected. Please fix this ?
Not working for me. Flashed in Magisk, I'm on latest AEX with eui audio zip installed and Dolby-Viper module.

Thanks for the suggestion, gonna look into it.
I completely forgot to test with headphones, anyway it's an easy fix, going to do it as soon as I get home in a few hours.

If you're on AEX it should work... Viper shouldn't interfere, but try to disable it temporarly.
Also, try to higher the volume, maybe it's just because it's not that noticeable (not much I can do about this).
Edit: just noticed you're using EUI audio, that may be the culprit, I'm going to check and see if it needs something to make it compatible.

No difference when I enable/disable Viper. Might be EUI audio zip culprit, but to disable that I must flash again dirty the whole ROM.

Can you send me the EUI audio zip file you flashed? (I can't find it)
I'll see what I can do.

I uploaded it first to Drive and here is the link. For some reason I cannot send it directly through xda app. Hope it helps. https://drive.google.com/file/d/12M0Bghy4F4TyYvaSs28-5mvZkJukaIqB/view?usp=drivesdk
Works on RevengeOS ! Even though the Ear Piece is pretty quiet.
I would suggest to make an offset fpr the Ear Piece so its earlier at max volume.
Great work so far! Was looking a long time for a mod like this! :good:

Ok, so probably EUI audio is the problem here. Going to look into it.

I'll see what I can do with that.
(Been looking for this myself too until I made it haha)
New Update v1.1
Hey guys, I did some modifications and it seems like headphones are working correctly now with no audio being sent to the earpiece.

Did you just modify the Mixer Paths.xml ? or how did you realise the sound output ?

Yep, it's that for now, until and if I manage to find another, more flexible way.
I raised the "RX0 Digital Volume" to 100. It's working pretty fine for my Device without any distortion :good:
Any how I will also try to find a way to offset the Earpiece Volume !

That's quite strange, on my phone with that value set above 90 the audio would distort a lot, especially with volume set mid to high.
But if it works for you then it's all good!
And tell me if you find a way faster than me haha, thanks for the help, in the meantime I could just make a second module with that value if someone wants to try...
I just rooted my Pixel 3 and one of the main reasons was that I could use Viper again. But to my dismay, it doesn't work! On top of that, I discovered that Viper has a maximum sample rate of 48kHz, which means I can't use my Sony speaker at its maximum potential of 96kHz with LDAC. So, I went looking for other audio MODs without this limitation and I stumbled upon Ainur James DSP. Now this works great, but it has a very annoying bug. Whenever a notification appears, the sound of the notification causes the music to stop producing any noise, while it doesn't even pause! Is there any fix for this, and if not can anyone recommend me any better mod?

Use a wide band dedicated EQ app for adjusting the sound to your own personal likings, it will literally help with improving your sound experience.

Here's a SS of which one I installed

Thanks for your help. But as I mentioned in my original post, I wouldn't prefer Viper as it limits the sound sample rate to 48 kHz.

I thought viper was what you were looking for. Or is viper4androidFX different?
