[Q] Volume Steps - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

Has anyone found a mod that will allow more granular adjustment of the media volume? I tried a few Xposed plugins and they have no effect. This may need to be baked into a ROM, but I'm not sure. I could be a limitation imposed by Samsung too.
Thank you for your help. :highfive:

Yes, I have Viper installed and it will only let you adjust output levels, not the steps of the volume control.

Tab S sound Boost, cannot find Mixer paths xml file? Help needed

I love my tab S and maybe this is the best screen I've seen my whole life.
But one thing bothers me that, I've been using the s and note devices from past 3 years, one thing I always did was Boost the sound for Speaker and the Headphone in the Mixer paths xml file.
I've searched this tab for a similar file and have got absolutely nothing.
Any good developer please help me out, if you can find that for it would be a great help

Yes, this was a great help, but I am not able to understand what I have to increase in that file
To be specific I want my Earpiece (in call), headphones, and Speaker (both in call and music one) boosted
Can you help me with that?

You could install my ROM and use the DSP manager, it also uses mixerpaths though a more serious answer is look at the comments it should point u in the right direction.

I was just searching but couldn't find the right direction, actually M reluctant to move to Cm I don't like touchwiz but I want a fully functional stock ROM, saw the comments section couldn't make it what were you telling my friend
Can you please consider me a noob and help me out? :angel:
you can edit default_gain in system/etc
I thought xml edit only applied to CM/AOSP/GPe roms.
OP, did this end up working out for you?

I've attached some screen shots to what you need to modify to increase your external speakers along with headphones.
You'll need Root Explorer or equivalent.
Let me know if it helped.

I have tried that and multiple others. Some work well, some dont.
None have given me what I am looking for which it the ability to boost things like system volume, notification volume, etc. Still looking for a way to do that.
The best that I can accomplish is boosting media volume via a music or video player. If that is all you are looking for then the equalizer and bass booster will work fine.

Yup, that works nicely, but:
1. Dont forget to change permissions on file file, or youll go into bootloop (happened to me before)
2. Im still waiting for a BT volume tweak because i dont think the mixerpath tweak works with bluetooth.

Make Speakers Louder?

Anyway to improve the loudness of the speakers without rooting? they sound good but they're not loud enough, especially coming from a MXP.
This is an easy one. You can increase the loudness of the phone by accessing the bluetooth options... In the bluetooth menu, you will have the option available to connect to other bluetooth devices. Choose a locally available bluetooth speaker and enable the BTA option...
Hence forth your phone should sound much louder. This is a secret hack, don't tell anyone...

No, without root and without using a mod there is no way, you could use a different player and see if you can tweak the audio but actual volume will still be capped.

Viper4Android will make the speakers louder. Unfortunately, I have not found a way of this mod not messing with the sound settings on the HTC 10. On mine, after installing V4A, boomsound is not working properly as well switching between theater and music mode

There's a few to be honest, any active or manual equaliser can get more out of the speakers as they are but may mess with boom sound which is already in place.
In regards to tweaking the actual max volume I believe it can be edited but results can vary and it can become unstable or even break audio altogether so I'd personally avoid that.
In regards to mods, the best one I ever used was one called acid which was just crazy, I had it on my s3 which became extremely loud without distortion, but I'm yet to see it on any other device, viper is another, team venom might have it on their rom.

Yea i hear you, the phone is loud enough, i mean it's a phone I would prefer it to be louder too tbh, but it'll more than do, it's definitely better than other phones, like the sammy.
The ringer volume is pretty bad. Only sound by the lower speaker, and very low. If somebody can help with this, very appreciate
is the ringer lower than on the m9?

I finally got Viper4Android to work with the help of other members. Audio is not broken and fully functional. It does increase volume of speakers nicely. In the link down below, download the 2 zip files, ignore the apk file. In TWRP flash V4A Convolver zip first, then the HTC-fix zip, then reboot.

I guess that if the upper speaker can be enable, the volume ringer can be more higher, the lower speaker is used only for bass and lower frequencies and for this some change in this speaker will not enough by itself for to improve ringer volume sound and quality
The V4A doesn´t fix the problem, if somebody know how to change this, welcome

Best Way to Increase Loudspeaker Volume?

Kernels don't support it, at least Franco and E-X don't, so any way to Increase the volume dB of the loudspeaker? The output of it is really clean but more loudness (without any crackling though) will certainly do. Anyone using any mod or something like that? Not really looking for something complicated like editing some text values or anything.

I would like to know this, too. Rings and notification sounds are not loud enough to hear well, even @Max Volume. I don't mind editing a file if I knew what file & what part to edit.
Install the Viper Driver. It resolved that issue for me.

Yes, boot into TWRP and flash this zip. When you do an installer starts up and you can pick and choose the mods to flash. I would also flash the battery icon mod so you can change the battery icons to something with a more visible percentage.
Last time I tried Viper, it made the loudspeaker get loud sooner. Such as volume level 50% was louder after the mod.
But overall volume was the same at 100%. I used an SPL meter and test tones to verify.

Ah, bummer . . . I'm one of those joe schmoes who has crappy ears.
On that link to the mod package . . . ( thank you very much @Mentalmuso ! ! ! )
It lists :
mods...
V4A 2.5.0.5 or 2.3.4.0
Dolby Atmos
Sony Xperia™ Z5 Premium audio system
Beats™ libraries and effects
WETA Reboot app
3Minit Battery
Center Clock
NavBar height
Disabled high volume warning
Allow All rotations
Screen on when unplugged disabled
.
Um, it lists two V4A mods . . . Do you remember which one you tested ?

Edit, I'm fairly sure it was the higher numbered version.

If you haven't tried the latest V4A, download the latest version from this thread. I think you'll find it does what your looking for. However, you do have to be rooted. :good:

Nor sure what, setting you're using with viper but playback gain provides at least a doubling of max volume. Use v4a_2.5.zip for a fully functioning viper in 8.1.
