[ICS Roms] Image compression

Is there any way to make the Sense ICS camera compress images less? None of my images ever seem to top 2MB, even if they're taken in broad daylight in a setting with lots of different colors. Fiddling around with build.prop does nothing

Have you tried fiddling with media_profiles.xml instead?

All the settings in there seem to be geared towards video quality

It's for both video and still pics.
Either way, be careful with it because I have been playing around with it and have managed to make the camera freeze upon taking a shot.
FYI, these changes used to be enough to remove image processing, at least in my experience on Gingerbread ROMs. However it doesn't seem to work for me now on ICS (though feel free to test and report your findings).
1 - changing this,
<!ATTLIST ImageEncoding quality (90|80|70|60|50|40) #REQUIRED>
to
<!ATTLIST ImageEncoding quality (100|80|70|60|50|40) #REQUIRED>
(or just adding 100 in front of 90, either way).
2 - changing these lines (which appear twice),
<ImageEncoding quality="90" />
<ImageEncoding quality="80" />
<ImageEncoding quality="70" />
<ImageDecoding memCap="20000000" />
to
<ImageEncoding quality="100" />
<ImageEncoding quality="100" />
<ImageEncoding quality="100" />
<ImageDecoding memCap="500000000" />

anyone figure this out?

Worked! Many thanks! I had been struggling with this issue all weekend.

How about uploading the files you changed?

Which ROM are you running?
I tried on the Ultimite ICS ROM and it caused the camera to crash. I will try on Virtuous Inquisition soon.

Come on, it's a matter of editing ONE file for a total of 9 small changes, it's not going to take much longer to make the changes yourself than it is to download the file, make a back-up of the original, move it in place of the original and set file permissions.

Just tried with Virtuous, no good.
Some indoor, low light shots work but when taking outdoor shots it crashes the camera.

Wrong post.

Im not on about for me, ive done it and did so as soon as i read the post.Im on about newbies that dont have a clue

I made the changes but with 99 as max quality.
Doesn't seem to crash but the image quality isn't as good as i used to have with the AmazeCamera mod
Will continy to experiment

I tried this and while there's an improvement, it still isn't as good as the mod I had on gingerbread
setting it to 99 also makes it still periodically crash for me, but I can get some pictures off

kristofpetho claims lossless compression on photos with his ICS ROM here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350492

95 seems to be stable... Still experimenting.
I've also decompiled HTCCamera.apk and tried to increase bitrate, but with no succes.

I've changed bitrate under 0x780 to 18mb. As result camera is recording at 14mbps but there is no video when I'm trying to play it.
Anyone with some camera modding exp?

try contacting cdtdroid or baadnews, they pulled out the amaze camera mod with improved bitrates. maybe contacting a kernel dev would help too, dunno if they can do much w/o the leaked kernel source but it's worth a try

[Q] Speakerphone volume very low during calls?

Anybode else has the problem that the speakerphone volume during calls is very low?
The internal speaker works very well and loud while playing musik, videos etc.. but when i use the speakerphone function during calls its way lower. I guess min. more than half of the normal volume.
version: 11.0-xnph22r

try this, its for cm10 but it should be the same...

I can´t find this folder or files on OPO but thx for the info

Everything seems to be like this phone, but the sound ... Bad that at the minimum volume of the incoming call, it still is not quiet, but the maximum volume when talking - I would like to enlarge. In a noisy environment or on the street is not always clearly audible conversation.

I found The solution, it's not an hardware problem. Tomorrow i will post how to make it works better.

You have to mount the /system as RW ( you can use ES FIle Explorer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop )
Edit the file in /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml
Around the line 571 you will find
Code:
<!-- Analog output devices -->
<path name="ear">
you are in the right section, so in the same section around the line 576 you will find:
Code:
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84">
Change the value (84) to an higher number I tried 100 and it's very loud, It think 92/95 could be enough.
MAKE A COPY OF THAT FILE BEFORE EDIT IT.
Thanks to C13v3r0n3 for the right way

ES file explorer or total commander does not load the whole file so never gets to the "ear" section...
Root explorer is the only app that reads whole file properly for editing.
Sent from my One using XDA Free mobile app

Using ES Note Editor works fine for me. Just scroll down and it load the other lines.

Thx very much for the Info
But i have very big problems to getting root access.
Tryed: Es File Explorer, Solid Explorer, Root Explorer, Root Browser... but i don´t get write permissions. I don´t get it
I also used the app mount /system
The button mount r/w in root explorer says it getts root but the system is showing r/o only....
I mounted the system but everytime i saved the file and reopend it its back to 84 again...
only root browser is givin me a feedback that its only read but when you look at the mixer_paths.xml file it shows rwx?
Any ideas what i making wrong?

In ES File Explorer tap the blu icon on top left side and open the sidebar, scroll down and expand the "Tools" menu, here activate : "Root Explorer" and "Show hidden files" (this is optional).
Be sure to grant Root permission when is requested.

yes i tried this also, but when i click aktivated root explorer and click mount system as r/w and ok and than i go a second time in and to check it its back to r/o again. I only can give / the rw rights.
I have franco kernel, could this be the reason?
Its also strange that the new update ota is not working. Should i wipe it and install cm11 new?

Got it worked! :good:
wipe phone, new install of cm11s
App: root browser
A good value is 90
This works but only for the ear speaker. Anybody knows which values must be changed for the dual bottom speaker for freespeaking in calls? I tried all RX but not louder...

Try to put all values to 10 and test if in those values there is the correct settings. After that raise one value at time to find the one you need.
After that share your test

My 5 cents!
For loud-speaker vol and for ring vol edit those in the same file:
<!-- Output paths -->
<path name="speaker">
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="90" />
<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="90" />
<path name="voice-speaker">
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="95" />

Thanks for this. If anybody wants to script it here's what worked for me. Assumption: order of xml tags remains same as my stock phone.
Code:
sed -i '0,/RX1 Digital Volume" value="84"/s//RX1 Digital Volume" value="91"/g' system/etc/mixer_paths.xml
sed -i '0,/RX3 Digital Volume" value="80"/s//RX3 Digital Volume" value="90"/g' system/etc/mixer_paths.xml
sed -i '0,/RX4 Digital Volume" value="80"/s//RX4 Digital Volume" value="90"/g' system/etc/mixer_paths.xml

sed -i 's/RX4 Digital Volume" value="80"/RX4 Digital Volume" value="95"/g' system/etc/mixer_paths.xml

after some testing, I'm keeping stock volume from here on because this mod is way too loud.

Increase Sound?

I want to increase the sound of D2302 LP 5.1.1 a little. But the guides given here are for Kitkat, and mixer_paths.xml seems different from those guides. Could anyone tell me what to change?

Yeah, it seems to work indeed. I changed in all three files the values

<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="84" />
(there is no RX5-RX7) first with 88. It was bit higher. I raised it up to 91 and I've got some distortion, especially with my ringtone that's played with a piano.
I'd love to know what the heck Sony did with our version of Lollipop. They are better bringing an update with major bug fixing soon because I'm getting sick of it. Starting from the lagging.

[How To][Mod][Magiskv16/TWRP]Get Dual Speaker Output (like S9) on S8/S8+ [Exynos]

Am cleaning up & updating the thread
How To Video by @ISF
So, Samsung Galaxy S9 was launched, with an AKG tuned Stereo Speaker. A definitive upgrade from a single bottom firing Speaker on S8 & S8+
but, luckily for us, S8 & S8+ (Exynos Variant) user, there's a way to at least get a similar audio experience on our phone.
This is achieved by enabling our "earpiece speaker" as a secondary output. Creating a pseudo-stereo experience. Sure its nothing when compared to real stereo on S9, but hey, at least we got something right ?
So, how do we get that ? It's simple. We need to modify some lines on mixer_paths.xml file located in system/etc/
but lets make that easier, by providing a Magisk Module & TWRP flashable .zip for you to use.
For you Magisk User, simply download the GalaxyS8DualSpeakerMagiskModule from attachment, and flash it through your Magisk Manager.
If you use SuperSU, you can use TWRP zip also from the attachment, and flash it from your recovery.
Both file support latest OREO firmware and Magisk 16. (If you are still on Nougat, download Nougat version from attachment)
Now, to make it even better, you can then install Audio Mod to your S8, like Viper4FX or A.R.I.S.E the effect will applied to both of the speakers.
For Advanced User :
If you need to adjust the gain yourself, find these lines in mixer_gains and adjust the 35 or 40 value to your liking :
<path name="gain-media-speaker">
<ctl name="HPOUT3L Input 1 Volume" value="35" />
<ctl name="HPOUT3R Input 1 Volume" value="35" />
</path>
<path name="gain-media-headset">
<ctl name="HPOUT2L Impedance Volume" value="107" />
<ctl name="HPOUT2R Impedance Volume" value="107" />
<ctl name="HPOUT2L Input 1 Volume" value="40" />
<ctl name="HPOUT2R Input 1 Volume" value="40" />
</path>

Indeed I can report it is working but...
1) the volume from the ear piece speaker is very low or it could be that just the main speaker is too loud and "covers" it...
2) I perceive there is a small delay between the two speakers, specifically when watching YouTube videos, landscape viewing. Sounds more like a reverb... Or it could be just me!

The mod used can be said as a "safe stage" since earpiece is not actually made for audio playback,
Increasing too much volume into it can break the thing.
This is why the mod kept at the subtle lebel.
You still can edit the mixer to increase the volume level btw, just be careful when doing so, LoL
Btw, am sorry MOD, @Bajanman @Razvan , i think this thread would be more proper to be placed on "Theme, Mods & Apps" thread, so maybe you can move it if you dont mind.

I'd like a volume mod for the bottom speaker and a individual one for dual speaker mod with added media gain, bt gain and slight call gain. Im sure alot of people who be on board with this! Had the s7 edge and got it solely for that speaker hacks.

Thanks for the interest guys. I will make a dual speaker mod with different sound modifications, and sound modifications for single speaker. I just need a little time tho. I have alot on my plate tomorrow. But I will make a thread when ready. ?

[MOD] DualSpeaker SoundMod - All Devices/Processors - Root Only -Tutorial- 07-04-2019

Hello Everyone,
I hope you all are great...
I used to make DualSpeaker SoundMods and now I sharing my knowledge, make your own SoundMod and be a Hero ...
This MOD is safe as long you make sure you change permissions of the file to 644 (rw- r-- r--) & set Earpiece volume to safe limits...
Please Read:
--- Keep in mind, your Device Kernel has a major role for the SoundMod, in other words, Kernel is able to utilize smoothly allowing full DualSpeaker or fails at some points which gives partial DualSpeaker or completely fails which you don't get DualSpeaker at all...
--- Custom Kernels that are modified at Sound Parts might affect my SoundMods, preventing it from Working (read Q&A)...
--- Some SoundMods might interfere with my MOD & a RACE is done, last one finishes wins (read Q&A)...
Kindly, Vote in the Poll (Where did you come from, How did you find this thread...?) & Rate it...

Important Notice (Hijack not intended):
Lately, I have been searching XDA thread for all soundmod requests without intentions to hijack OP thread, I simply invite those who are requesting for soundmod for the devices unrelated to the thread, such requests for (SAMSUNG J2) in Samsung S7 section and so on, or threads where people replied with feedbacks to the OP and didn't get any response or updates for a very long period of time (more than a month), or perhaps the mod no longer works (outdated)...
As I mentioned, All Soundmods here are modified from scratch, if an XDA member adjusted my soundmod and shared it (his preference) I will add his file on the thread and credits will go to that Member...
My Intentions are to simply support all Devices with Dual Speaker SoundMod...

NOTICE: Exynos & Snapdragon Devices:
Exynos devices are easier to make due to that they use 2 mixer files, mixer_paths.xml and mixer_gains.xml, sometimes (only mixer_paths.xml)...
Kirin/Snapdragon devices takes long time since there are multiple mixer files that each phone use, unless you're lucky and it's only few like one or two mixers, yet they will require many tests, I'm willing to go that road but are you willing the same...?

I no longer take requests, but I can now assist in teaching you and everyone else how to make your own dualspeaker soundmod... If you succeed in making the dualspeaker, kindly share your work for others aside from that, this thread will contain and support more devices... All credits are yours... ​
How to Request the MOD (Please Cooperate with me):
In one Post,
Mention your device specs (Name, Model Number, Android and processor - EX: Samsung Galaxy Note 8, SM-N950F, Nougat 7.1.1, Exynos )...
People Please ANDROID VERSION IS VERY IMPORTANT, I can't make TWRP or MAGISK without it...
Compress all of your Mixers inside (system/etc) for Nougat, (system/vendor/etc) for Oreo, any file starting with word *mixer*.xml, name the file with Mixers-(*device model number*)-AndroidVersion (Ex: Mixers-SM-N950F-Oreo) & upload it...
Also, People Please try to name the compressed archive with your device name & android version, because of many requests, mixers are being mixed up and I have to go back to the thread verify which belongs to who, please cooperate...
OK, lately I have been forgetting who requested the MOD, Would you please also write your name in file name, so I could search the thread for you...
Notice about Mixers:
--- In rare cases, the mixers I specified are not used by the phone, to verify, rename them to .bak or remove them, if no sound is produced by the phone then you have the correct mixers else mixers are located at a different place open android terminal and type:
Code:
su
find / -name *mixer* > /sdcard/mixerpaths.txt
cat /sdcard/mixerpaths.txt
you can also view the results at "/sdcard/mixerpaths.txt",
if you're not sure which mixers, attach the mixerpaths.txt and I'll have a look and tell you possible paths...
What I'll Do?
I'll add the Mods here...
First I'll search for your device on XDA, if it exist I'll add my Mods Here,
If it doesn't exist, then I'll make a thread there and post the link here...
You'll be listed as a tester of the MOD if you stop providing feedbacks, I won't be able to proceed and thus, the MOD goes on hold and I move to another device...
I start with the devices that most likely won't take much time...
How to install?
--- You have 3 ways to install the MOD:
You manually copy the files from archive "Manual" into the path of mixers and change permissions to 644 (rw- r-- r--)...
You flash TWRP, if TWRP freezes then reboot, it means Wrong TWRP was flashed, TWRP will create a backup for your current Mixers saved in the same mixers location...
You can just install Magisk...
How to revert?
--- You have 2 ways to revert back to Original:
You manually copy the files from archive "Original" into the path of mixers and change permissions to 644 (rw- r-- r--) or if you flashed TWRP, then check if backup exists "mixername.xml.bak0", if you found it, delete "mixername.xml" and rename the "mixername.xml.bak0" to "mixername.xml" make sure permissions are still 644 (rw- r-- r--)...
You can use the TWRP file to flash the Original/Backup mixers by simply replacing/swapping the files inside it (do not touch folder META-INF)...

Futuristic:
Create Flashable TWRP for all Devices... (Done )
Create MAGISK Module for all Devices... (Done )
Have a section listing Soundmods by other Developers so this thread contains not only my works but others with credits...
PLEASE YOUR FEEDBACK IS IMPORTANT...
!!! ALWAYS MAKE BACKUP OF YOUR FILES BEFORE REPLACING THEM !!!
Once you replace them, IMPORTANTLY change the permissions to 644 (rw- r-- r--)...
LAST IMPORTANT NOTICE:
This MOD can be used with Equalizers, even though this MOD sets the phone to the loudest balanced volume gain...
Using Equalizers might cause crackles and noise which damage your earpiece & speaker if you don't fix it, to fix it either you adjust the other MOD settings by reducing the boost
or Adjusting my MOD by Opening the mixer file I tell you and adjust the volume I mention for you decreasing it, you must eliminate all crackles and noises...
Big Credits go to XDA Member chdloc for his help in explaining non-exynos mixers...
Don't Forget to say :good: THANKS :good:
and
if you're very happy, please consider Donating to Support me, it means a lot even if it was little...​

Confirmed & Conclusions:
--- LG G Pad X V521 has only one speaker at the bottom, only thing I can do is boost the sound, requester appreciated my offer and passed...
--- Xiaomi redmi 4 is a very low end, after 16 tests I can finally reach to a conclusion the device is not supported as the mixer files is missing many lines of codes, adding those lines cause issues with kernel as it seems kernel doesn't support these lines or maybe I am wrong & can't see where the problem is at...

Q & A - SoundMod - (keep in mind, this is DIY now, I don't take requests)
What's this SoundMod...?
--- Enabling DualSpeaker/PseudoStereo by using the earpiece and balancing as much as possible with the speaker,
but keep in mind that if the earpiece specs are low, the sound would come low, so I won't lower the speaker volume, the purpose of this Mod is to enable the earpiece to the max volume possible with a slight boost to the phone speaker without damaging them...
My Device Kernel has a Major Role, SoundMod isn't Guaranteed...?
--- Not necessarily, Kernel reads from the modified mixers and tries to utilize the speaker & earpiece, failing to do so will result no output sound, the probability of success is as follows (in my Opinion):
Low-End-Devices: 20 to 25% success in getting Partial DualSpeaker, 5% for full DualSpeaker...
Mid-Range-Devices: 60 to 75% success in getting Partial DualSpeaker, 30% for full DualSpeaker...
High-End-Devices: 100% success in getting Partial DualSpeaker, 95% for full DualSpeaker...
To Fix this issue, I disable the DualSpeaker Partially and as minimal, at least you could enjoy DualSpeaker at some points...
Wait, I understand "No DualSpeaker at all", but what do you mean Full & Partial DualSpeaker...?
--- Let's start with the Partial DualSpeaker: The phone sometimes will be using both speakers and sometimes only the bottom speaker depending on the software audio_policy sent to the kernel and interact with the hardware, Full DualSpeaker means both speakers are used always regardless the audio_policy...
is it Possible somehow the "Partial DualSpeaker" becomes Full DualSpeaker...?
--- So Far, All the devices I put my hands on, I managed to make them from Partial to Full, takes some time and requires patience...
I have a Custom Kernel installed, will that be a Problem...?
--- That might be a problem, especially if the Sound Part was Modified, the MOD might not work or have issues...
Do different Android versions have the same SoundMod...?
--- Not necessarily, because first the path of the mixer files change and there is a chance the structure of the mixer file has changed, so make sure you are using the right Android version and if it's not there request it, (read how to request a mod from my thread & mention your request is because of different android version, Ex: (Samsung Note 8 Exynos Android Oreo, Nougat is already Created in your thread)...
How safe is it...?
--- It's very safe as long you change the file permissions to 644 (rw- r-- r--), if you forgot to change them, you might end up in a bootloop, if that happens, in your custom recovery you'll need to go to the files and change their permissions via file manager, or your phone boots up but muted completely (Sound input & output Disabled)...
Can I go Back...?
--- Yes if you backed up, and if you didn't, let me know and I'll see if I have the original mixers...
And if you used TWRP, you'll find the Backup in same path, mixers ending with ".bak0", unless you flashed twice then your Original Mixers have been overwritten...
Is it Mono/Stereo...?
--- Depends on the hardware specs, Some are Mono only, Some are Stereo, if you want to know, there are many Apps on the Play Store that does Sound Tests: simply type "stereo test" and select the app you want, most phone by default play sounds stereo and as result you'd hear the earpiece producing sound from one channel (L) & Speaker from two channels (L & R), if I disable the Left channel from the speaker to make it sound real stereo surround you'll lose sound Volume, Gain and Quality because the earpiece isn't strong enough to compensate the disabled L channel of the speaker, if you insist, I'll see if I have time to have a look and make you the MOD, It's just I don't waste my time on Lowering Sound Volume, Gain and Quality, feel free to fiddle and make it stereo, thread is DIY...
Can I use it with other Equalizers/Amplifiers...?
--- Most Likely No, Because if there is a slight Noise/crackles in the speaker, on long run they will be damaged...
But if you really want to, I'll mention which lines you need to modify for the volume, simply lower the values to eliminate any Noise/crackles...
What about other SoundMods...?
--- Depends on the MOD, if it's targeting the same mixers, then there will be a RACE on who applies config & last MOD applies is the Winner...
If it's not targeting the mixers, then I'd answer you similarly to previous Question...
Why Include all files that have the word "mixer"...?
--- Some Devices have multiple Mixers but uses only one of them, such as Samsung, Different variants use different mixers, not confirmed yet though...
Can I have special requests...?
--- Depends on your request, if the request is simple, I'll direct you to the lines to modify to achieve your request, if it's complicated, I'll find time to do them...
What do I have to report...?
--- VERY IMPORTANT to report the Noise/Crackles because they damage the earpiece/speaker on long run or no sound coming at certain action done...
Also, Any weird behavior such as mic issues or volume level or phone muted at some apps...
