I was wondering if there was a way to edit the mixer_path xml to raise the headphone volume for notifications and in call. I already checked out drummer jed's post to raise general headphone volume but I'm looking for specifically the notification and in call volume.
Hey guys, I'm looking for a way to control my S6's mic's volume/gain input level, for weeks now, and I have found nothing.
The reason why I'm looking for a way is so that when I'm recording some video in a louder environment the sound gets blown out, cause the phone just can't handle the gain control automatically, so I'd like to lower it manually to have nice sounding recordings.
no one? why is there literally no info on this in the last few years? Is there an option hidden somewhere that I'm missing?
bump?
I'm looking for a way also.
I have a low volume in phone calls. Need to increase the gain.
I also have a low volume during calls. I flashed a MOD to increase the volume and although it is better, it's still not good enough.
Only possible through kernel tweak but there is no dev who is interested in doing that so im afraid you cant for the moment
Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum.
I have a stock Moto G 2015 2/16 GB version.
I've always had a problem with it: when I try to play an audio clip in Telegram or Whatsapp through the earpiece speaker, by pulling the phone up to my ear, the volume is just too low. It's all right if I'm in a quiet room, but as soon as there's even modest noise around, I can't hear anything. I can use the volume keys to adjust it, but it turns out I'm already at the highest setting and it's definitely not enough.
Conversely, when I use that same speaker during a phone call I can hear fine, even in a noisier room.
I'm running Android 6 at the moment but, as I said, I've had this problem since the beginning, when my phone still ran 5.x.
Thanks for any suggestions.
I actually have the opposite issue.
xt1540 2/16 6.0 stock not-rooted, bootloader unlocked
Music audio, notification tones (bells,beeps,whistles) are fine and loud
Phone calls volume is very low.
I've tried...when call starts down the volume then back up...no go
Move back to 5.1.1, still same issue.
Tried removing LCD to get ear screen out of the way...still issue persists.

I replaced the ear speaker, still low audio during calls. I forgot to describe when call is placed in speakerphone mode, the audio is fine albeit slightly distorted on high volume.
** comment ** I have a Lumia 640 LTE, (SD410) call volume in earspeaker is loud where I have to turn it down a couple clicks. And I've had people tell me that on their end my voice comes through same if not better than a corded landline. (using the same SIM that was used in the G3).
squid kernel screws the speaker while calling, make calls louder
Looks like it's an issue with a lot brand/model phones.
Something about mixer_paths.xml and "RX1 Digital Volume" needs to be changed.
So I'm guessing all the manufacturers are really lazy in tuning their Android smartphones to perform best for it's primary function, being a phone. Well, for that matter, overall sound quality with all the mic's and speakers.

Thank You hp420
I haven't tried it yet, but when I do I'm sure my G3 will be usable. And thanks again for taking the time and testing/providing different volume level versions of mix_paths.xml.

Update: I've tried the modified mixer_paths.xml, only marginal success. Possibly have a damaged speaker.
Normally people find that the call volume on their phone is very low but mine on the contrary is very loud even if I lower it as much as I can both with the headphone and without it using the headset speaker. Is it possible to lower it by modifying some settings something like the opposite of The sound mod. My phone is rooted so it should be easy right?
I install the sound mod and it still the same so I reinstalled the stock version
Hello, I've noticed, that since android 10 my microphone and speaker volume is kinda poor, lower than before. Would like to know if anyone got an app or knowledge about editing mixer_paths to increase that. I have seen few guides about that mixer_paths, but couldn't find informations about increasing microphone volume. Can someone guide me to increase that?
