[Q] Volume Stepper for CM10?

I am using
[ROM][CM-10.1][JB 4.2.1][KANG] NameLess Bean and was wondering if there are any mods that can increase the number of volume steps?
I found this "smooth scroll & volume step increase for MOST android phones" but would rather flash a mod if one exists.
Thanks in advance!

Take a look at android tweaker free. I think there's an option to increase volume steps.

Thanks extrem0. I checked out that app. It seems to have a stepper for in call volume. Seems odd that they'd include in call volume stepper but not media etc. =/
Thanks though.

That's right, Take a look at android tweaker free.

These are nice. low battery notification is a bit surprising/dramatic, but still a great mod.

Yeah the low battery makes me jump when it goes off but thats exactly what I want. Pointless having the standard version as you tend to forget. With this it's funny, shocking and gets you charging in no time haha

[MOD] Volume Boosting for SM-N900 [ROOT] * Discontinued *

*** DISCONTINUED DUE TO MY TIME RESTRICTIONS***
Hi All,
This is my first thread so please excuse me if I'm breaching any rules.
This is a Volume Boost MOD for SM-900 version of our beloved Note 3. You need a ROOTED Device!
MOD.zip is for a high boost and
MOD_Moderate.zip is for a moderate boost.
MOD_Little.zip is for a little boost. (This is intended to be in between Stock and Moderate)
Note that these are all relative and changes from one's taste to that of another.
This mod increases the Speaker volume when the speaker is on during
- a phone conversation,
- music playback
- Ringtones, notifications..etc
Additionally, there's a slight increase in the wired headphone during Music Playback.
1- BACKUP YOUR ysound.xml file under /system/etc. Then, Unzip the desired MOD provided in zip attached and overwrite ysound.xml file to /system/etc with the file explorer of your choice. Here, I used ES Explorer.
2- Once you're done unzipping and overwriting the existing ysound.xml file select the file then press "More" , then "Properties", then "Change" button for the "Permissions". Apply -rw-r-r-- for the permissions. Attached, you'll see the screenshots for the procedure.
3- Once you make SURE that you followed the instructions, reboot the device.
4- In case you want to come back to the original stock version of the file, either put back your backup or unzip the attached ORIGINAL.zip and apply the above 1 and 2.
Hope this is useful.
PS. Please can someone find out and share what the line 3558 is for in the modded file that I attached? Thank you.

Kartal, thanks for this mod, I think this is also valid for SM-N9000Q for Turkish phones, right?
Regards.

Yes, this MOD should work on all SM-900 models, including the Turkish SM-N9000Q. Mine is SM-N9000Q and it works flawlessly.
This MOD has nothing to do with the phone ID or firmware (as long as the device is SM-N900). Btw, you can easily change the phone ID.
best,
Gürhan

I adjusted so that the music doesn't get distorted heavily. I suggest that you use it at around 90% volume as it sounds OK to me. Just try it yourself, start from 100% volume and come down gradually until you are happy with the sound.
I am pretty sure it is not gonna break your speakers, at least..

the only thing is that i would like to wait to root it...
maybe you know if there is an app (without root) to encrease the volume?
I am coming from s4 rooted with sound mod installed and the quality is ok but the volume is too low (like s4 stock)...

Unfortunately, there's no way to use this MOD without root. There are other apps in Google Play but they work differently (if they work for Note3 at all). This MOD modifies the xml script of Yamaha.

Amazing!
It works flawlessly on my Note 3 N900.
Thanks bro!

If you are using ES File explorer, for example, you need to enable root function as well: Click Menu, then under Tools enable Root Explorer and click on it, then click Mount R/W, then select all those three items as RW. You're done! Now you can write/delete..etc

Yes, there should be dedicated parameter for it.
Please try
<scenario name="AndroidPlayback_Audio_Bluetooth_Normal_BT8">
and change all 96s to 100 for example.
Sorry I don't have any BT accessories so I can not try it myself.

[Q] Increase the number of volume steps

First, I couldn't decide if this was the best place for this question, so if there is a better place, just let me know.
Does anyone know of a way to increase the number of steps for the volume control. In my office I would like my phone to make sound as I can't always here the phone vibrating. However the first step up on the volume feels kinda loud. I would love it if there was like a half step.
Is there any mod or app that will let me do this? I'm running the CM12 nightly (from 1/30) if it makes a different.
Thanks

Volume Steps

This 7 Pro has too many dang volume steps.
30 steps for the volume on the 7 Pro vs only 15 on my Note 9.
Takes an absolute age to adjust the media volume on this phone, LOL! In all seriousness... Is there any way to cut the volume steps in half on this phone? Any module? Custom ROM offer this?

On Havoc you cange the number of steps. You can choose between 5, 7, 15, 30, 45 and 60 for everything (alarm, music, notification, ringer, system, voice call..)

will increasing the steps change the minimum volume level?

Gravity Box lets you change it.

Throw this into your build prop:
Code:
ro.config.media_vol_steps=15
You can change 15 to anything you like.

I'm interested in editing the steps too. I got the buildprop editor app and was wondering where should I put that line under? Does it go under "audio" or "media" or doesn't matter ?? Also what is the default steps so I have a point of reference?

thanks man, I just changed them to 15.
If you haven't done so yet, get the "buildprop editor" app from playstore, hit the pencil icon, scroll all the way down and add the line that rickysidhu_ mentioned.
Hit save and exit, reboot and you're good to go.

@rickysidhu_ Hot damn! It Worked! Thank you so much! I set my media volume steps to 10. Much faster and easier to raise and lower my media volume now! I don't know why OP thought 30 damn steps was a good idea, LOL!
