CMahendra's Guide for LOW-SOUND VOLUME FIX for MT6589x Phones
[Useful for Porters]
This guide is for MT65XX rom porters, who want to increase volume of their ported custom roms.
Newbies with little RootExplorer experience can also read carefully all the steps and can increase volume of phone.
WARNING:
This Information is Only for Rooted Phones and people with RootExplorer and flashing experience.
Whoever it is porter or newbie, first take Nandroid Backup before proceeding. If fix does not work you can Restore back your Nandroid Backup.
This is just one of the many methods. If the problem is in more than one places then this fix may not work for you.
DO AT YOUR OWN RISK. I am not responsible for any brick or problems.
STEPS OF TUTORIAL FOR ROM PORTERS/DEVS
Step 1)
Download this Flashable zip file "Sound_Permission_Setup_CMahendra.zip" (attached below) and copy on your SDCARD. Also install RootExplorer.
Step 2)
TAKE BACKUP: Take full nandroid backup of your low-volume custom rom in recovery mode, in case of any problem happens in the process, it will be useful.
Step 3)
Now you have to find and BACKUP copy of STRONG SOUND files from Working Stock Rom. So, Flash stock rom with full wipe and start phone and test sound volume, if ok or not.
Step 4)
With any Root Explorer on phone, copy this folder from root of yours phone to your SDCARD.
/data/nvram/APCFG/APRDCL
Copy paste this "APRDCL" folder on your SDCARD. There will be around 15 to 16 or more files inside. Now stock Sound file Backup is done.
Step 5)
Now flash/Restore your custom rom which have low volume problem.
Step 6)
Open RootExplorer and open "APRDCL" folder on your SDCARD and select and copy all following files mentioned below.
================================
Audio_AudEnh_Control_Opt
Audio_CompFlt
Audio_Effect
Audio_Hd_Record_Param
Audio_Hd_Record_Scene_Table
Audio_Sph
Audio_Wb_Sph
Audio_ver1_Vol_custom
Audio_Vol_custom
Audio_Wb_Sph
AUXADC
Headphone_CompFlt
HWMON_ACC
Sph_Dual_Mic
================================
You can also include any file with words "speaker" or "sound" or "volume" or "Mic".
Do not worry if any file is missing.
***IMPORTANT: Do not copy or replace files starting with "Camera" and "File_Ver". Leave them as it is.

}
Step 7)
Now paste these files in following folder location of your phone.
/data/nvram/APCFG/APRDCL
The same folder location from where the files were copied from stock rom.
Step 8)
Now reboot the phone into recovery and flash this Sound_Permission_Setup_CMahendra.zip (attached below)
Restart and you are done. Now you may check the volume.
This worked perfect for many of my A116 MT6589 roms. The Volume in RingTone, Alarm, Music, etc, increased like hell. But if volume does not increased you still can Restore back your Nandroid Backup from Recovery. THIS IS MOST SAFEST WORKAROUND BECAUSE FILES ARE FROM YOUR OWN STOCK ROM. SO PALS, NOT TO WORRY!

EXPERIENCED PORTERS CAN MAKE THEIR OWN FLASHABLE ZIPS EASILY.
Hope this helps.

sir, great tutorial.. had my problem fixed.. my phone now has a load music player.. just made a script to replace the files need.. so even if i wipe data/factory reset it gets the files back in place..
Sir , Is this not a general fix? I mean, is it only for roms with sound problem. ?And can is it necessary to do this using only stock rom?

Rooted my TF101 and have the rogue/cwm recovery installed. I tried a Nandroid backup, but it anything to do with the SD card gives the above error.

Before we proceed, let me remind you guys, that you are doing this at your own risk and no one is to be held responsible!!!
This ROOTing procedures and installing of CWM works perfectly on my device, so read and follow all the instructions carefully!!!:fingers-crossed:
We can install CWM without rooting this phone, so feel free to choose where do you want to start...:highfive:
Part 1
Rooting Your Phone
Download files below and do the following procedures.
MT65xx_USB_Driver
RootFiles
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1.Download RootFiles and MT65xx_USB Driver from the links above and extract on your desktop.
2. Enable USB Debbuging Mode and Unknown Sources of your phone.
3. Connect your phone into your computer and wait until successfully recognized.
You may also want to check on your computers Device Manager if the driver is properly installed.
4. Open the RootFiles that you extracted on your desktop, right click on "run.bat" and run as administrator.
5. Follow on screen instructions...
6. Go to your phone and allow to complete rooting process.
7. Your phone will automatically reboot after rooting, check your apps and there should be SU (superuser apps) installed. Done! You have succesfully rooted your phone.
Part 2
Installing Custom Recovery (CWM)
Download files below and again follow the steps...
ScatterFile
RecoveryImageOnly for Starmobile D7!!!
SP FlashTool
Preloader.bin file
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
By the way I use MTKDroid Tools to create the Scatter File and the Recovery Image. Just head on the LINK, if you want to know more about MTKdRoid Tool thanks to rua1:good:
Moving on...
1. Extract all the files you downloaded from the links above on your desktop, and it's better to put them on same folder.
2. Right cllick on SP Flashtool and run as administrator.
3. Click on Scatter-Loading and look for the "ScatterFile".
4. Uncheck everything except for the recovery and look for "recovery.img" and hit enter, F9, or download button.
5. Click yes then turn off your phone, remove and put back the battery.
6. SP FlashTool will start downloading the custom recovery image.
7. Wait until finish downloading...the next screen will appear and hit enter.
Congratulations!!! You have now a Custom Recovery installed. Turn your phone off, and just press VOL UP + POWER BUTTON to enter into your new recovery.
NOW your phone is ready for customization, but before doing that...SECURE A NANDROID BACKUP !!!
I dont have customROM available for this device yet, but thanks to rovo89 for his great Xposed Framework
With this great application, you can now modify your ROM without modifying any APK's or flashing from recovery!!!
Some customization done on my phone is the APM (advance Power Menu)
Volume option to set independently
I also managed to backup the stock ROM of this device, that can be easily download back to your phone by means of SP FlashTool. (assuming you have messed up your phone system and failed to work properly)
Other purpose of the full backup is for the customROM, (wish that some of our good devs here might find time to take a look and help us make a customROM out of it)
I'm not good of creating customROM, but I'm hoping that I could build one...regards to all!!!:fingers-crossed:
This is my first thread so please consider this , just post any comment if i missed anything...thanks!!!

(T285M,....modified system image for debloat etc-tar.md5 fails on flash in odin-not sure if some signing is needed-have the system folder if anyone interested...took out some apps, added csc folder with some xmls for control on data on off auto for mms, added two fonts...nothing more than that)
also see page 14 here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...ng-tab-e-sm-sm-smnu-smp-t3302935/post66585078
I just got my T285 yesterday. Noticed that in Setting, App manager I can move some app to sdcard but after restart, the moved app disappear.
Sorry if I have mislead anyone.
Now I am also facing memory shortage with this 8G device.
I have lost all hope for root on the SM-T285. Why such a low profile device gets a locked down bootloader annoys me.
However I'm trying to customize its system.img, I'm stuck though as Heimdall fails at 3% upload everytime I try to use a repacked system.img file. Flashing the original image works fine though so it could just be in the way that I repackage the image. tune2fs shows some difference which I am still trying to sort out.
I'm willing to help if there are things that I can try.

HOW TO ROOT GALAXY TAB A 7.0 (2016)
Note: This is a developing story. As far, we have found only one way to root your phone. But if someone invent more tricks of rooting in future, we will try to share with you.
You can install Chainfire’s SuperSU manually using a custom recovery such as TWRP (In this method we are showing how to install SuperSU.zip file with TWRP). If you are interested, check details below but take a backup of your device’s data first. This method should work with any variant of tab including SM-T280 (Wi-Fi only) and SM-T285 (4G/Wi-Fi)
Step One: Download Chainfire’s SuperSu.zip file.
Step Two: Copy the downloaded zip file to your device.
Step Three: Turn off your Samsung device and boot into recovery mode (boot device by pressing and holding down volume up, home, and power keys at the same time to enter in recovery mode).
Step Four: Take a backup, it is optional but important because if something happen bad in rooting, backup file will help you to restore previous state easily. So press ‘backup’ button, check all the boxes for backing up everything and then swipe to start the game.
Step Five: Once you have taken the backup file, press ‘install’ button, locate the SuperSu.zip file and confirm you want to install it.
Step Six: Reboot the device and your device is rooted.

Yeah it's fake. To even be able to follow that, you need a custom recovery, but there is no way to install custom recovery right now with a locked bootloader.
