How To Increase Volume Speaker (Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300) - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is There a way that i can Increase Volume Speaker of My S3(GT-I9300)? Like Mobile Uncle Tools or Secret Codes to engineer mode.
If there's is a way, can you Provide instructions on how to do it?
My ROM (Line-Age OS 4.1) Nougat 7.1.2
Thank You very Much!

Yes you can. It's stored in a file in root. There is a specific app you can use called galaxy volume modifier. It is for stock but might work with others. Be careful with it though because you can go to high and shut the speaker off.
There is the standard volume level and a booster level. Set the standard no higher than 55 and the booster no higher than 5 or you'll encounter the said borked speaker.
You can do it manually if you find the file that the volumes are stored in. For stock roms the file is called default_gain.conf

framework.odex - how to modify files inside and pack them back to odex?

Hello I'm having a problem, I need to edit AudioService.class to gain more volume in my Xperia J (it's limited by design...stupid EU law). The framework.jar is not as usual, it's an .odex file in the phone which means I had to unpack the contents of it first.
But after using this tool http://code.google.com/p/smali/wiki/DeodexInstructions All the files lost it's structure and I can't even modify the audio values right now.
Also is it possible to odex deodexed files again to make them work on stock rom (based on ICS)?
I've tried to send this message to sony but their forum is dead so here it is explained furthermore:
Hello, I'm furious with my new phone. The headphones volume is not sufficient at all (I'm talking various models of HEADphones, not earphones, although the standard ones that come with the phone are not loud enough to me as well).
The sound also appears compressed on this model which for example means that if something is played at low volume for longer period of time the phone automatically levels the sound to be louder and if something strucks like an explosion for example the sound reduces to the limited value that to me sounds lik 85dB and the phone can handle a lot more beacause when someone calls me while I'm listening to music, music just BOOOMS up the volume for a second and then the ringtone comes in. I had the same issue with my HTC phone but Volume+ app from market could fix that, however on Xperia J with ICS on board none of the volume hacking applications work.

In Call Volume Boost w/ Root

Now that we have root for our Z3v's... I've been playing around with trying to find/edit the files that control our phones speaker volumes (both in call earpiece volume and speaker phone volume). I don't necessarily need to increase the speaker volume for playing music because most of the time I'm using bluetooth, but I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in that as well.
I'd like to be able to just modify the phones system files rather than use some sort of booster app.
From what I'm been able to find, the file located in /system/etc/ called mixer_paths.xml is what our device uses to control volume parameters. I've seen where other devices have had these types of files modified in order to boost max volumes.
Is this something we can do with our phones? The in call volume, both earpiece and speaker phone are just TOOOO quite for me.
This is about as far as I can comfortably go as I'm not a developer/programmer.
Anyone out there comfortable helping out with this idea? Is it possible.

I also would like to know how to increase the volumes
I think it's almost comical how low the audio levels out of the headphone jack are. I don't know if this can be fixed or what but even playing at full volume it seems too low.

I've been using the Sound Mod from Z3 Development version 3.3 with Dolby Digital Plus (I think it has beast audio) & the volume on the headphones is so loud at the second click up. They even have a way to go back to stock.

I'm using the beast audio mod as well. Good stuff.

This mod says lollipop only, does it run on the vzw z3v?

Sorry to dredge up an old thread.... You say you're using the sound mod. Did you flash that in recovery?
Checking this out first, just got root today and don't want a shiny new paperweight anytime soon

I did flash the sound mod through recovery but it only boosted speaker volumes, not in call volumes. I used the one without Dolby.

Wow so we can flash .zip files in recovery now? Again just making sure, just rooted and there isn't a ton of info out there for our device atm. Thanks in advance
I flashed it in the dual recovery as well. Just make a backup first because the zip they have to take it back to stock isn't for our phone. In other words if you ever want to go back you should wipe & reload the backup. And make sure you don't install the lollipop version.

Does this mod increase speaker volume in general? Like listening to music?

Redmi Note 3 (SD) In call Volume

I have recently received redmi note 3 32 gb SD Variant and found that the in call and speaker volume is low as compared to other Xiaomi phones (The volume is not drastically low but still as compared it is). The initial MIUI 7.0 with this phone has a good volume level which was reduced in after updates.
Would like to know the how to increase the in call volume a bit more.
Please point out to any mod available.
Hey, same here.. Did you get any work around for the same?? The low in call volume is sort of irritating in outdoor conditions...
Same for me too
Same for me

Will dolby atmos increase volume output? That too in call volume.. I doubt it.. But Im ready to try anything and thanks for the input. But is dolby atmos installable from play store..?
Hi.
I have the same problem.
Just wanted to know if anyone knows how to boost in-call volume on this phone?
Talking over Bluetooth headset is too soft compared to my older phones. I've tried several bluetooth headsets and they are all soft even at max volume.
One fix I found was to get into engineering mode by dialing *#*#3646633#*#* but it doesn't seem to go into this mode on this phone. Perhaps because it's not MTK chip? Someone also suggested mobile uncle but it only works on MTK chip.
Hope you can help
I am also interested in a solution that boosts the bluetooth and/or speaker volume.
Yeah. Tried Viper4android too but all it did was tweak audio for media / music. No changes for Bluetooth in-call volume when I play around with the controls during a call. (sigh)

How to boost headset volume in Android 7.0 Nougat? (phone is rooted)

Hello everyone, i hope this is the right place for my question and that someone will be able to help me.
I recently purchased Ulefone Power 2. That's a Chinese phone based on MTK6750T Octa-core cpu and Android Nougat 7.0.
Since i'm hearing impaired i have to boost headset volume a lot, which was very easy to do on my old LG G3 (there was an dedicated app for that, which ofc required root).
However, increasing volume on Ulefone turned out to be very hard task.
I found out about engineering menu which is accessed by ##3646633## code, and i increased headset volume to max. value of 160.
Volume is now slightly louder, but unfortunately still not enough for my needs.
Ulefone is rooted and i have access to root files in \etc folder (which contains volume files i need to edit - at least i assume so), but the problem is i don't know which .xml file i'm supposed to edit to raise that max. 160 volume - common sense didn't help me much.
Is here anyone who can tell me how to solve this? I hope i explained my problem well, feel free to ask me for any further explanation, and thanks in advance to everyone who reads this.

CAT S60 Ringer Volume

Hello,
The ringer of my S60 is very loud. I need this; and because this worked well for me in the workshop, we bought a second device. Unfortunately, the ringing tone of this second device is much quieter - just as loud as a normal cell phone. We have tried all the settings of the device and also several volume booster apps: no success!
Both devices are rooted (thanks to adtbm and xda-developers.com !). So I copied the file mixer_paths.xml from the system directory / system / etc of the louder one to the other device: this also did not improve.
Does anyone have a idea what else I could do to increase the volume? Or does anyone know of a suitable volume booster app for this purpose?
Thank you !
