How to make your device Headphones-set/Speaker louder?
---
The problem is that i need more volumepower, its not loud
enough on my A500FU when i hear music over headphones/sets or speaker.
Because i love Metal in loud and not like a babyfart.
There many apps out, but these not working realy good for me
and the other side is when use it you have one more app on
your device, maybe runs in backround, not needed in all way!!!

I HAVE NOT TESTED BUT I THINK ITS WORKING FOR ALL DEVICES/ROMS
WITH THE mixer_path.xml IN SYSTEM, PLEASE REPORT ANYTHING, THX!
---
For sure root is needed so that u can use a root explorer app, like
Root Explorer, ES File Explorer..etc with full read/write permission
Editing the file on PC is possible too, use Notepad++ or something.
For replace follow same way to file and replace it with the new
one with permission rw-r-r-- 0644, dont forget to mount system before.
When have a explorer open it and navigate to:
system/etc and scroll down until you see the file called:
mixer_path.xml
save a copy from it (just in case), open it with text editor and look
for the following lines to edit its values. There two sections in
which u have to edit lines,in both sections you need same score
Its a little difficult to find this lines, so i have do some shots
to see where u can find it, look on the scrolling line from explorer
on left side,i marked it red, or search the lines, the first three
lines u find directly in the first "area" called:
<mixer>
-
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" /> maximum 95
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" /> maximum 95
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="84" /> maximum 95
-
second three lines u find under the "area" called:
<!-- Device -->
<!-- RX part -->
look for:
<!-- Play Scenario -->
and change the value from following lines to higher score,
but not higher as 95, because it can harms your ears,
headphones/sets and your speaker.look for the path to
edit headphones, headset, speaker blablabla, its named clearly.
-
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" /> maximum 95
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" /> maximum 95
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="84" /> maximum 95
---
For lazy peeps or for looking on it everyday i have uploaded
files that are from different Roms for A500FU,but so far these
are all the same mixer files,just replace set perm and reboot.
---
When ready with editing/replace save it and reboot,now you can
enjoy LOUD music on earphones, headset, speaker etc.
---------
Some user report that they cant find the mixer_path.xml, in some roms/devices its
not available,because they use other files for it.I dont know all the names,but im
search hard to become infos about it,till now i found that in some devices u have to
look for:
system/etc/default_gain.conf
and edit for example you need more volume on speaker,headphones blbla this scores:
Speaker Digital Volume
SPKOUTL Input 1 Volume
SPKOUTR Input 1 Volume
-
But this file is not the only one in android universe of confusion,in newer phones its ok
when following folder is deleted from system and boom the music is louder.Delete this
from system/etc the file called: codec
-
On others its this what u need to change scores in:
etc/tinyalsa-audio.xml
to this:
<device type="speaker">
<path type="enable">
<ctrl name="AD Digital Volume" value="68" />
<ctrl name="Speaker Playback Volume" value="75" />
-
or u must change this filescores:
etc/snd_soc_msm/snd_soc_msm_2x
to this:
SectionDevice
Name "Speaker"
Comment "Speaker Rx device"
EnableSequence
'PRI_RX Channels':0ne
'RX4 MIX1 INP1':0:RX1
'SLIM RX1 MUX':0:AIF1_PB

'SLIM RX1 MUX':0:ZERO
'SPK DAC Switch':1:0
'RX4 Digital Volume':1:0
'SPK DRV Volume':1:0%

-
change to following score,over this it can harm ur device:
'RX4 Digital Volume':1:68%
'SPK DRV Volume':2:87.5%

How to disable Soundalive
Dude I want to use Viper4android. After installing Busybox and Viper4android and rebooting the phone, I am unable to use Viper on my phone. I tried disabling as well as uninstalling soundalive.apk from system using titanium Backup. However, the surprising part is even after Uninstalling Soundalive, it keeps on appearing in Stock Music Player and doesn't allow viper to function.
This soundalive thing is too annoying. Any way to get rid of this crap bloatware....

You need a permissive kernel for that to work
Use this https://mega.nz/#!N1h3CYoI!wK4o42aj8hJyuKvEWgjufJXCtRTKnfhl_yGf_pYfC5U
Works a treat, u will get security warnings thou as Google/Samsung don't like you messing with selinux, I deleted all security crap via link2sd (paid version) and now reboots and selects permissive every time. Google will have a popup now and again telling u its harmful but ignore them.
Wow. Thanks man. Will try this.
Also is there any way to increase the default bass level using root explorer. Like for volume, we can modify mixer path. Is there any similar way for bass too???

I've personally not looked into it yet but I'm sure there is something somewhere
selinux method does not work on A5. .
I somehow want to get rid of this annoying Soundalive... Even after deleting the apk file, it runs with the stock music player and doesn't allow any other equalizer to work....
Why the hell did I buy Samsung.. Now I regret as Samsung has become too strict with its software policies for newer phones.

Today i just found out my phone redmi note 3 got the hissing noise when watching youtube. I use earphone.
Anyone have the same problem in cm13. Last time forgot to test the earphone on the Global stable miui because really fed up with xiaomi bootlock policy. Got unlock it, i straight remove miui and install cm.
1. Go to root/system/etc, find this file mixer_paths_wcd9326.xml
2. Open it. Go to this line <ctl name="RX HPH Mode" value="CLS_H_HIFI" />
3. Change "CLS_H_HIFI" to "CLS_H_LP"
4. Save, reboot.

Fixing bad sound during video recording / in dictaphone for Redmi 3S / 3X / 4X
Also posted on 4pda and in bug-report on MIUI forums
UPD: heavily updated new v.8
Warning: in ZIP format this patch only for Redmi 3S/3X and 4X.
On Redmi 4A available manual install, see below. For Redmi 4 Pro solution here
Please, don't ask me to port on other models, ask someone on forum.
Because without device I can't test all.
Many-many people noticed awful sound quality in videos no matter what camera or ROM used (sample and another)
Was created two bug-reports on official MIUI forum (1, 2)
Also this problem affects at least Redmi 2, 3, 4A, 4Pro, Note 3 Pro.
Basing on this post with fix of similar issue on Nexus 5 created patch for Redmi 3S / 3X, that disabling noise cancellation in camera and apps (but not in-call).
Sound quality now much better: no crackling, no floating volume, just clean more louder sound.
So now this disturbing problem finally fixed.
Sample without and with fix here
Recorded via stock camera (mono, 96 Kbps), phone no moved, music volume not touched.
Someone can notice lack of bass, but I think it's just hardware microphone limitation (designed for voice, not ambient sound).
Nothing more to adjust here, sound just "by default" without effects.
Important information, please read:
how to install TWRP? Follow this or this thread
if phone won't boot apply TWRP > Advanced > Disable DM-verity or flash this zip
if this not helps, then files was edited incorrectly (I can't test all roms). Apply remove ZIP to cancel patch
patch applied for mono-recording in video (stock camera), and for stereo (awesome Snap Camera HDR)
also applied for dictaphone and other applications
noise cancellation during call still works, which good
patch compatible with MIUI firmware and custom rom's (LOS / CM / etc)
patch built-in (but with swapped stereo-channels) into LOS 14.1 by daniel.stuart14 and LOS 13 by FedosIS, don't install it
I don't know does your specific ROM include patch or not, check this yourself
patch directly edits files, not replacing them: it's more correct, because files not universal
you can flash latest version over previous
for custom rom's added auto-restore script: patch will persist even after updating rom
on MIUI you need flash patch after any update via any method
Version history:
8
- fixed swapped stereo channels: now upper mic - left, bottom - right (source)
- disabled noise cancellation for external / microphone headset (strange, but there was a problem)
- added support of Treble ROM's
- vastly improved editing files reliability to prevent mistakes
- at update previous changes not reverts, instead using clean backup file
- therefore patch can't be installed over ancient v.5 (I guess there's few users)
- backup files keeps up when updating the custom firmware, this is necessary for the possibility of canceling
- Magisk modules now can be installed through app
- updated remover ZIP
- updated manual installing guide
7
- now works on Android 8 Oreo and higher
- remover ZIP updated too
6
- fixed low mic volume on newest custom rom's
- during installing performed backup of current files
- therefore revert patch now not editing files in reverse way (hard to maintain) and just renames old
- manual installing a bit changed too
5
- fixed in-call mic volume for those who disabled in-call noise suppression via build.prop (version fits all, 1016/292)
4
- reduced volume from 102 to 96 to avoid distortion
3
- fixed high volume in-call that distorted your voice
- now volume changed only for required devices, not globally
- patch reverts all edits from old versions, implemented protection if patch applied twice
- where was possible edits fits XML-marking
- added comments into script
2
- increased mic volume, but globally
- was bug: in-call corespondent heard you worse due high volume
- now patch directly edits files, not replacing them
- added auto-restore script or custom rom's
1
- initial untested release
- was low mic volume
Installing / updating (v.8):
Just flash via TWRP ZIP that attached to post.
Also there's zip for reverting changes.
And here systemless version for Magisk.
Or manual installing (for 4A too):
If you made mistake or not set required rights / owner / SELinux-context (usually after coping file "outside") phone will not boot.
So better just flash ZIP (only for 3S / 3X / 4X) or be careful.
Note: on Oreo and higher (include Treble) files located into folder /system/vendor/etc
0. You need root.
1. Edit /system/etc/audio_platform_info.xml
2. Find lines contains this and delete them (they can be not present):
Code:
...SND_DEVICE_IN_HANDSET_MIC" acdb_id...
...SND_DEVICE_IN_HEADSET_MIC" acdb_id...
...SND_DEVICE_IN_HANDSET_STEREO_DMIC" acdb_id...
3. Under line <acdb_ids> add this:
Code:
<device name="SND_DEVICE_IN_HANDSET_MIC" acdb_id="1"/>
<device name="SND_DEVICE_IN_HANDSET_STEREO_DMIC" acdb_id="1"/>
4. Edit file:
For Redmi 3S / 3X / 4X: /system/etc/mixer_paths_qrd_sku1.xml
For Redmi 4A: /system/etc/mixer_paths_qrd_mtp.xml (found by Ymys_ua)
At middle of file find these lines:
Code:
<path name="voice-call">
If after there is two lines with DEC1/DEC2 - remove them.
And replace it for this one line:
Code:
<path name="voice-call"><path name="adc1" /><ctl name="DEC1 Volume" value="84" /><ctl name="DEC2 Volume" value="84" />
5. Find this lines:
Code:
<path name="handset-mic">
<path name="adc1" />
If after there is two lines with DEC1/DEC2 - remove them.
And replace them for this one line:
Code:
<path name="handset-mic"><path name="adc1" /><ctl name="DEC1 Volume" value="96" /><ctl name="DEC2 Volume" value="96" />
6. Find this lines:
Code:
<path name="headset-mic">
<path name="adc2" />
If after there is two lines with DEC1/DEC2 - remove them.
And replace them for this one line:
Code:
<path name="headset-mic"><path name="adc2" /><ctl name="DEC1 Volume" value="99" /><ctl name="DEC2 Volume" value="99" />
7. Find this lines:
Code:
<path name="handset-stereo-dmic-ef">
<path name="adc2" />
If after there is two lines with DEC1/DEC2 - remove them.
And replace it for this one line:
Code:
<path name="handset-stereo-dmic-ef"><path name="adc3" /><ctl name="ADC1 Volume" value="6" /><ctl name="DEC2 MUX" value="ADC1" /><ctl name="MI2S_TX Channels" value="Two" /><ctl name="DEC1 Volume" value="96" /><ctl name="DEC2 Volume" value="96" />
8. Save file and reboot.
For those, who want port on other model:
Main requirement: /system/etc/audio_platform_info.xml must have this lines (or in /system/vendor for Oreo and higher):
Code:
<device name="SND_DEVICE_IN_HANDSET_MIC" acdb_id="1"/>
<device name="SND_DEVICE_IN_HEADSET_MIC" acdb_id="1"/>
<device name="SND_DEVICE_IN_HANDSET_STEREO_DMIC" acdb_id="1"/>
may not required: <device name="SND_DEVICE_IN_CAMCORDER_MIC" acdb_id="1"/>
Next you need adjust volumes, reefer to manual install guide. On other models "devices" names for volumes can be different.
To find which used in particular case use logcat (filter "device") and searching in file /system/etc/mixer_paths_*.xml to recreate "chain".
@Bonoboo Thanks a lot! This fix has worked wonders. A must use fix for those who use sound or video recording.

That fixes whole recording on custom rom RR, not quality.
I'm facing issues during call.... The other person is not able to hear my voice in between for few seconds
Will this work??
Will you be able to create a systemless/Magisk version for those who do not want to modify system partition? Thank you!

No, this is only for sound quality in videos / apps.
Reason of your problem unknown, but this happens for some users (seems hardware).
It's usually fixes by disabling noise canceling during call.
You need root. Via filemanager edit file /system/build.prop
Find line ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=fluence
And change it to "none": ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=none
Save file, reboot and test.

Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
I tried to repack the ZIP file too (with 7-Zip 'store' compression) but it didn't work either. Based on the Magisk documentation it seems to be missing some files perhaps like config.sh and module.prop:

Hello,
If you got the same problems like me on any lineage rom with the microphone volume, i just found a fix for that.
What do you need?
-root (of course)
-Any root file browser that can edit xml files.
What to do:
Android N:
edit /system/etc/mixer_paths_tasha.xml
Android O
edit /system/vendor/etc
on line 2122 change
value to 124
Code:
<path name="speaker-mic">
<path name="dmic3" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="124" />
</path>
on line 2177 change
value to 124
Code:
<path name="handset-mic">
<ctl name="DMIC Delay" value="ON" />
<path name="dmic1" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="124" />
</path>
on line 2312 change
value to 124
Code:
<path name="voice-speaker-mic">
<path name="speaker-mic" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="124" />
</path>
of course you can rise the volume up, but i think thats okay on that values.
reboot your device and spam voice mails
Backup your file before you edit it
Isnt there already fixes in places for these roms from J0SH1X?

its fixed at latest kernel source from lineage, but the mic volume is way to low. You can test it with voice memos or WhatsApp
Thanks
Useful! Thanks!
---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------
I'm using Lineage and when I record video there is a pop at the beginning and the is so low it's almost muted. I tried Snapchat and the stock camera video recording app, both with the same results.
---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 PM ----------
Any ideas?
For Oreo users , the file is located in /System/Vendor/ETC
Unfortunately, the problem remains. After changing these values as described above, it just got worse and I can't hear the other participant anymore.
No one can hear me and I now i can't hear anything too, after changing these values like above.
I also tried the Magisk addon "low call fix" before, but unfortunately it didn't work either.
Are there any other solutions???
On stocked Rom this problem don't exist, but on Lineage, RR and AOSP Extended everywhere the same.
Do anybody have any solutions? My Device is a LG G6 (870)
Has anybody found a better fix? I'm experiencing this as well and it's my only problem. The people on the other end report that I sound like I'm cutting out. It makes it unusable unfortunately.

<ctl name="DMIC Delay" value="ON" />
<path name="dmic1" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="124" />
</path>
on line 2312 change
value to 124
Code:
<path name="voice-speaker-mic">
<path name="speaker-mic" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="124" />
</path>
of course you can rise the volume up, but i think thats okay on that values.

I can't find the file on Oreo. Nexus 6p
Just in case it could help Galaxy S3/i9305 users (Lineage 14.1) : the corresponding file to fix is located here : /system/etc/sound/m3
and the one provided in the post below fixed almost everything for me (I just extracted the file and copy it under /system/etc/sound/m3) :

Hi,
I have a Z5 Compact with 7.1.1 completly stock.
What is the simplest way to edit mixer_paths.xml? I assume I need to root?
I have searched like I fool but cant find any good instructions.
Would also strongly prefer to not erase all the information.
Is this even possible?
Thanks!

You do need to root - no other way to modify anything in /system. After that u need a file explorer like Root Explorer or MiXplorer.
I modified this file to lower the volume of the speaker and the sensitivity of the microphone (echo issue) without having to root the phone. I did everything from TWRP using the provided terminal. In TWRP I mounted the partition using the graphical interface and then navigated to the file and edited it using vim. This is not in any way convenient but I only wanted to perform that one-shot modification so it seemed adequate.
This process requires to install TWRP, therefore to unlock the bootloader (which you might not want to do) but the phone is not "rooted" (according to what is usually called "rooting"), temporary root access is achieved from TWRP. So, you need root permissions to modify this file, but you do not need to "root your phone".

Rooting is just flashing Magisk or another root app from TWRP where we have /system R/W rights. You were one step away from rooting anyway... After unlocking bootloader rooting us child's play.
The trick is if it's possible to root without unlocking BL. Thats more important. If you unlocked - you might as well root, you already have recovery.
