there is an application called Volume+. It can "overboost" your in call volume but it only works on CM roms and MIUI. Which kernel are you using?

its because Volume+ supports CM ROMS or MIUI only. can you please go to your /system/init.d folder and check if it has a file called "volume" something or anything related to volume? Also as i can see in the ROM's threat there is a patch for DSP presets. Did you flashed that?:

that´s odd
i don´t know if you have a problem with your speaker, but you can install a equalizer app, and do a voice modulation enhancement:good:
by doing this, you can customize, what you ear:victory:

Same problem here. GIO, CM 7.2, Android 2.3.7, AUDIO IS BLOCKED.

i mean that you can play around with an equalizer app, to fine tune what you ear
i tune mine to give more bass, that´s an example, that´s the way i like it...
you can tune yours the way you like it, thus try to fine tune that the voice of people, comes out, more louder:fingers-crossed:
i use the equalizer app, that comes in cyanogen 10 rom ( maclaw )
hope this helps:good:

I used Poweramp witch has equalizer but for me call in volume need higher when talk with somebody.

As far as I have understood, call in volume/ringetones can only get higher by flashing a kernel that allows it, so far I haven't seen any for Gio. Otherwise an equalizer can help to get a higher volume out of the speaker

Actually, I have experienced the low in-call volume problem only in CM 7.2 firmware. The stock one sounds loud enough.

[MOD] Volume Boost for Headphones, Earpiece, Bluetooth, and Speaker. JB/KK/G3 Roms

AS OF NOW, THIS IS UNSUPPORTED, IF SOMEONE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE OVER DEVELOPMENT FEEL FREE TO, MAKE SURE CREDIT IS GIVEN TO ME AND IXNYNE. EDITING THE FILES WITH A TEXT EDITOR WORKS BEST. HAVE FUN!!! EMAIL ME @ [email protected]
Hey everybody, I just made some Headphone volume boost scripts, all are tested and work, though some may damage your hardware.(Continue reading)
These are flashable zip files that will work on any recovery.
They range in digital volume from 62-68 for now. And range from 19-20 in digital volume. (63/19 only)
They are safe to flash for the most part, but values above 65 for digital volume MAY damage hardware.
How to install:
Download and flash in CWM, TWRP, or Philz
Downloads: Below
-Slight boost, choose 62/20, 63/19, 63/20, or 64/20
-Medium boost, choose 65/20- Some devices may clip at high volume.
-High boost, choose 66/20- Some devices may clip at high volume.
-Experimental Extreme boost, choose 67/20 or 68/20- use with caution! May damage hardware.
I would recommend 63/19 for iPhone like sound. Or 64/20 for loud sound, without distortion.
Aosp earpiece boost and stock earpiece was removed, they didn't work correctly, use new earpiece and Bluetooth boost!
Remember:
I am not responsible if your phone explodes, creates a nuclear weapon, makes your ears bleed, or if it stops working.
If you say I broke your phone, I will laugh at you. Please advise!
Bugs: None reported... Yet.
Please tell me if anything is wrong!
Thanks,
willi_3609
P.S. this is working best on KK Roms. And new Earpiece and Bluetooth boost are out!!!
Thanks to iXNyNe for the base files!

Thank you for making this. I found it to be very helpful.

I believe the handset speaker uses rx1 so using the headphone zip should also set the handset volume.

was looking for this a long time ago.. i flashed 2 files yesterday from some1 who posted other volume boosts as well but having a more wide option available is amazing....

If i an not mistaken , we can flash multiple files one after the other, correct ?
example.. i want to boost Head phone and speaker .. so flash Headphone6520.zip followed by Speaker66.zip ? or would Speaker66.zip overwrite Headphone.zip changes ?
As i understand it both files just modify Mixer_paths.Xml, so multiple flashes would just be overwriting the same file?
Thanks for the mod !

You can use both.

It just modifies them, you can flash both speaker and headphone, no need to wipe anything either!

Can anybody test somethibg out for me.
I need somebody with an AOSP based ROM to test my Earpiece zip. That would be great, ui need to know if it works on the D80x models
It should boost earpiece volume as that is the only lower value, but I would be thankful to have someone test it and report back to me. Thanks.

@willi_3609 Thanks for this..
i ve flashed some of them.. it works fine with cable headphone but bluetooth headphone is not as loud as cable headphones..
Would be much better if bluetooth headphones could sound like same as cable headphones

Thanks!

its been posted a lot of time, bluetooth headphone volume is digital. cant be changed
question: when i already have a volume mod flashed then i flash another kernel, the volume mod flashed will dissappear right? so need to flash the boost again..? ?

Answer: Its actually not about kernel.. But yes. It can help..
I ve tried many rome and mods .. Its definitely changeable.. Last time i ve tried sony walkman on my g2 (cloudy g3 rom) was the best sound with bluetooth.. It was as loud as cable..
but cloudy's rom wasn't good enough.. (heating) therefor i had to change it..
So one thing i m sure is bluetooth sounds can be changed..

Cm integration
Hey OP can you look at possibly getting this working with cm11. I know there are other mods that say they help with those volume issues but I've yet to find one that gives stock like or close to stock results. Thanks!

it already works.

Your headphones must be having a problem man coz Nokia X has excellent audio quality(in my view).Try with different headphones.
Else if they are alright then try flashing a sound mod(It is totally your choice but my recommendations-PureAudio Engine-it works great with this phone).

Ok.. I will upload the saved setting of V4A for you. You need to restore it to apply the effect.

is there a way to increase the volume of the headphone out?

Just curious if someone has developed something that works with V4A, and increases the volume output of the headphone jack?

I have been able to do this with my old phone, an S3 with the Boeffla kernel installed...I dont think the Boeffla can be installed on the ZF2 but there may be other kernels that offer the option of enhancing the volume....

Thanks, I'll do some looking. If anyone else has anything, let me know.

Anyone know where mixer_paths.xml is on our phones?

There is an app for that

did u try viper4android

Yes, I tried V4A. The gain setting just introduced distortion. Not sure if there is any way, but I'd love to know if there is.

What headphones are you using? I'm using Viper and depending on my settings, I can make a $8 pair of Panasonic earbuds sound like they cost hundreds. I use various SOL Republic over ear and ear buds that sound incredible without any distortion. I can give you some settings ideas if you'd like. When using Viper also, I find you get better results if you leave the ASUS Audio Wizard enabled and set to Music Mode

I'm using Aurisonics Forte IEMs. The bass, when it hits, tends to drown out, or fade the mids and highs. I'll try turning on music mode, I've got it off right now.
*edit* Okay, don't like music mode on with Viper. Adds a weird echo effect. I did figure out I was using the gain wrong, so I've made that adjustment. Have to give it more of a listen, but it's better.

Well, I went to poweranpapp.com, and downloaded the Intel version of the app. Supposed to savethe battery life, and improve sound. Not bad, but I still wish the phone was louder.

Just edit your mixerpaths.xml file for louder output on your headphone , save and reboot.

What is the correct spelling of mixerpaths?? Does it have a space or dash? i.e. "mixer paths.xml" or "mixer-paths.xml"
I did a search on the file name and it came back as a spelling option.

The phone has terrible volume. It has nothing to do with the headphones. On my old s3 a volume booster app was all I needed. Now, with this zen2 551kl I'm searching for the ability to boost gain. I've unlocked boot loader and rooted and then tried viper but it failed to apply patch/plugin/driver.

I've heard also you have to set viper to impassive (linux) rw.+...tried the app and gave su permission to no avail.

Enhance volumes on speakers and headhpones in (nougat) (root) .376

I have edit mixer path to have more volume out from speakers and headhpones
Backup original file from
/etc (file) mixer_paths.xml
And copy this one to there... then chance permission to rw-r--r--
The file will overwrite itself whit the one located also on
/System/etc
If you dont do it this way for some reason you may have some sort of problems where some app doesn't hear and video lags
Reboot then your set... enjoy and please hit the thaks bottom

Hey mate,
I've just finish to replace my file with yours. After a reboot, it worked very well, I've notice a very good enhance volume on my headphone. (I was testing this at work so I couldn't test the speakers.
Thanks mate !

@kristijan15 Hi mate,
I've noticed this morning, when the sound is very low, there are some Sizzling sounds when I play some music, I've tried with two pair of earphones so maybe it's because something isn't properly adjusted ?

Check it out, but every build is changing the structure mixer_paths.xml.
You can edit the file yourself mixer_paths.xml in its sole discretion.
