Hi guys.
i already searched the forum, but didnt found anything. your work with the roms is really great, but i miss a cool feature. is it possible to "fade out/in" the backlight instead of just turning off ? this would be a really cool effect. is it possible to hack the regitry a little to do this ? or any other ideas ?

hi, i hope exist a sw tweak but i don't know exactly if is possible to make fading with this method...
i think that is possible with hw capacitators,but soldering smd capacitators on BA mobo is a little risk....
if someone can refute i would be happy

Hi there, just curious if this can be done on the SGS. It would really come in handy when the phone is in the pocket, just hit the volume rocker or SHAKE the phone to skip a track. That's awesome isn't it. Any app that can do that?
There is an app called Shake2PlayNext in the market for free, as well as others.. I tried it once but it's too difficult to calibrate when you walk with you phone in your pocket..
I don't know if the same could be done for the volume keys, I think you need a mod for that. I could be interesting though

Take a deep breath and start over again, with a little more touch please.

Thought there would be mods needed. Sorry bout that 333.

Please do some research if you are a first timer.
Only you can choose to use this software.
By downloading you agree to these terms.WHAT THIS TWEAK DOES:
This flash-able Volume-tweak.zip includes both mods simultaneously.
1) Silent Camera!
Volume.db
Replacing the existing volume.db file, the one I'm including disables all shutter sounds (which I may change to one of the shutter sounds), autofocus sounds, and other obnoxious camera tones. I understand that Samsung's idea is to make people aware that others may be photographing them, privacy stuff and all, but let's be honest shall we? Creepers are going to creep one way or another, and the autofocus 'beep' disturbs the baby and makes the dog bark! It also disables the boot sound. Best part of this tweak, it doesn't even touch the actual camera apk!
2) Volume Enhancing!
default_gain.conf
The next is a mod adapted from the developer Meltus. You may know him for other awesome volume modifications, but this one he made for the GSIII international. This should make the phone overall louder in all respects. I have, however, adjusted it from his original settings to keep the volume from reaching 'crackling' volumes and possibly damaging the speakers. This level sounds loud and still sounds good. :good:

Do you have this mod working on your device? I ask because I got burned on the teh kernel, and I'm a little more cautious about what I flash from now on.

It's brilliantly simple. Most android phones come with these settings ingrained into the kernel, but Samsung has left them out. In theory, one could make these adjustments from on the phone itself, if you can open a .db file. Very simple, nothing that can break a phone. Just be careful not to blow out your speaker or your ears.
Sweet, Camera sounds really annoys me.
Time to creep!!! (on my kids ) lol
edit: flashed and tested camera. No sounds on focus and snapshot so :good:

Sweet! :highfive:
As an addendum, this tweak is even neater because it disables the camera noises on a system level. I've seen a supposed higher-resolution camcording camera apk floating around that 'supposedly' disables camera noises as well... but it doesn't matter if it does because this tweak stays in effect. I don't believe this will affect other camera apps... but any Samsung camera variant should be muted.
Random you rock. Great to see you here. Your OG epic stuff was awesome. Thanks for the sound free camera!
Randomking ive seen your work before amazing stuff glad this got ported i was gonna try to port the volume mod but still no phone yet =( thanks a million anyways
Thanks for this mod. It works great. Would it be possible to mute the lock/unlock noises? I love water but I'm a little tired of hearing water droplets every time I use my phone.

For the sound boost (using the international tweak) you used the config file, correct?
That file does not, by default, exist on our US variants. I've personally included the tweak in my ROM over on T-Mobile. I've had a person or two say it made no difference. Me personally, I thought it was louder then hell (changed speaker boost from 0 to 40 and headphones from 0 to 25). If I put the volume on the lowest possible setting, its very audible still. With my headphones, I put it on three ticks and it was loud. Putting it up fully made me feel like my eardrums were going to pop.
What are your feelings on the tweaks? Do you think they actually work? Considering the config file doesn't exist by default, do you think they're actually pointed to in our system to be used?

I too noticed that the file isn't there, and was momentarily skeptical. But as the base coding is likely fundamentally identical, I thought I'd give it a chance. It's hard to fully test while at work... but I can hear my mp3 alarms quite clearly now. I had made a thread days ago regarding how my songs play fine in the player, but at half volume as alarms. The alarm was much much louder! And I generally have a fairly discerning ear.
That said, I now have to experiment the individual settings I think.

I agree the coding is likely identical. My skepticism comes more from the fact that the file doesn't exist by default. If it doesn't exist, and we add it, does anything in our system actually point to the config file in order for it to actually take effect?
Regardless, I'm pretty positive it works. I just was hoping someone had a better understanding of how it works and if it's actually pointed to.
When you play around with it, mind PMing me your results? I'm curious what you get.
For one, change the headphone settings and try with your headphones plugged in. I think they're extremely loud with the boost set to 25..

Certainly. If different values draw drastically different effects... I'll probably be making a "Louder but comfortable" version and an "Extremely loud, hearing damage may ensue" version. :good:
Revert.zip???

There will be, but I have to write up the script to delete the conf file later. The volume.db file need only be replaced by the stock one.
are there any software or modification that can modify the number of steps/levels of the in-call (earphone) volume. it looks like there is only 7 steps/levels while others (music volume and etc) are 15 steps.. so the lowest setting on the in-call volume is rather too loud for my IEM... I searched around for volume control, found Fine Volume Control but it does not work for in-call volume.. I asked on the developer's thread and he mentioned its not being developed anymore.. so I'm hoping someone here would be able to help..
the only alternative i can think of is getting a in-line volume control..but was wondering if there are any software/other solution to this?
Thanks in advance.
There is a build.prop edit for this (if i remember correctly) , but it changes it system-wide if you're ok with that (media volume, ringer volume, all sound volume steps are changed)
I will update my post as soon as I find it and/or remember the exact code.
In the meantime, search build.prop increase volume steps :google: and see if you can find it, this definitely exists though
Thank you.. I didn't know there is such a thing as build.prop.. I found what you meant.. Thanks.. it gives me a reason to root my phone.. =)

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

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.
It's best to raise the digital volume it sounds less distorted ...my setting are +12 to all digital volumes and sounds great
Just to to clarify, you only need to raise the digital volume? I'm going to give it a shot.

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.
