When im using MaxxAudio, the sound doesn't seem to change when I go through the EQ settings or the MaxxVolume stuff.
Is it anything like Viper4Android where you have to load the driver on startup or something?
Im running stock 4.4.4 CM 11.0-xnph05q .

Bumpity Bump.
Still not sure whats up with MaxxAudio. It doesnt have any effect on the sound. If I use the enhancements in PowerAmp, they work fine and increase the bass etc, just a bit annoying that its limited to only that app and the built in effects dont seem to work for me

In poweramp tap the equaliser tone /volume to go to the stock equaliser tone /vol screen
Make sure music fx is enabled, then long press on music fx to change the sound
Of that doesn't work
In poweramp settings-audio - advanced, make sure music fx is enabled

I've got cyanogenmod 7.1 rom. When I'm listening to the music and try to change a bass or eq settings - nothing happens.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong or the player is not working correctly.
Could someone tell me how to change a sound effect?

are you changing it via DSPManager? I
No just in a player, settings/more/sound effects
I find a solution. Phone restarted and all is ok.
But seriously, this wasn't an issue before JB. I listen to music at night with my headphones on, to drown out my husband's snoring. Before (I think before the JB update, but not positive), I could put it on a very low volume, and I'd barely hear it. This was great, as it didn't wake me up when a louder song came on.
Since upgrading to JB (again, I think that's when it started), the volume "slider" has specific notches and can no longer be set to any volume along the spectrum. The lowest "notch" is too loud at night and keeps waking me up.
Anybody know of an app or setting or something that would revert this back to a free sliding volume switch, where I could go so low, almost to the point of barely hearing it? I was startled nearly out of my pajamas last night, when Van Morrison screeched something in the middle of a relatively sedate song.
Thanks in advance!

if you have CWM installed i can fix that for you..
I haven't noticed a difference in volume since the update, but I never have the volume that low. You could just get headphones with inline volume controls to decrease the volume.
I never even used ics on this tablet so I don't know either..

Edit it how? Looking at the file, which is in the system/etc folder for those wondering, it is fairly non-intuative. What would you change to reduce the volume ?

This is a loud/ sound mod i enhanced... you can look at the review video in the link to see how it works.. I notice a big difference when using it and this mod works with any app on your tablet not just music players.. There is a version in the Playstore but doesn't work correct so i enhance it with some mods there is also a Equalizer included to lower or raise volume if needed..

And this would allow me to make the minimum volume lower? Everything I've been looking at is all about making things louder.

Sorry i read this wrong.. i thought you wanted it louder.. but yes you can still use the equalizer with this and set everything low so the volume will also be lower.. and when you need that extra boost it will be there also...
install the market version and turn down the eq settings might help.. You dont need CWM with this version.. you have to download it because the tablet is incompatible with it in the playstore.. once installed open the app and click on app to open it..
the top option is for your headphones
the middle option is for the tablet speakers
the bottom is for bluetooth

Thanks for providing this. I installed it and have no idea what to do with it. I know I have to select the first option, but after that I'm lost. And I don't notice any changes in sound with the headphones on, when I change any of these settings. Any idea what I might want to change to get lower minimum volume?
Edit: I selected this as my MusicFX option, under my Sound settings.

Hi,
I'm new to this forum but I must say it's a good way to learn everything on mod for android!
I'm a happy user of the new google phone Nexus 5 but I have one problem lots of user are experimenting and can't find a solution :
The ringtone volume is very low and I miss lots of calls.
I've installed fauxsound but it only increase music played in google play apps or youtube !
I've tried volume+ without success.
I'm now searching for a mod/app (my phone is rooted) to hear my ringtone!
Thanks

Afaik, no such mod or app yet exists. As a workaround, you could amplify the ringtone(s) you use with a program like Audacity. Helps a bit.
Best option for now is to root and install Viper4Android. It is perhaps the best audio driver replacement there is and will allow you to increase the speker volume by as much as 6dB.

Assuming you are rooted, unlocked, and the app/driver installed.
Settings, Sound, Music Effects - Viper4Android
in the Viper4Android control switch to Phone Speaker
Check Enabled
Settings, UI Settings - Moderate or Expert
Scroll all the way down and adjust the Output Gain
You can also play with the EQ to boost the most audible frequencies.
At least on my phone the call announce and ringtone are as loud as any phone I have ever owned.
In the very worst case it will give you nice control over how the music sounds.

Hello, I have a regular pixel 3 and the ringtones/notifications are way too soft. I've noticed that if I'm playing a game or watching a video, the volume is great when notifications come through. Is there a way for notifications and ringtones to use the same audio channel (not sure if I'm using the right terminology here) that video and games use? I've read that it's "working as intended" per Google, and notifications and ringtones only play through the bottom speaker. Just trying to find a way to not miss so many calls when the phone is in my pocket.
Tldr: the notifications are too soft, and can it be fixed.?

Does that require further configuration, or will it "just work" after installation? I've read about it, and I think I need root for it, which I'm willing to do, just want to make sure I can get it working if I go the root route.

2.7.1 pretty much just works, you still need to configure it to Ur taste but it's a lot easier to install than previous versions
That's awesome, thanks for your answers. Final question - do you have viper4android installed on your pixel 3 and can confirm the audio plays out of both top and bottom speakers at a louder volume?
Yes it does indeed
Both Speakers for Ringer?

If you read a couple of posts up, I asked the same question and acidspider said viper4android does utilize both speakers for notifications and ringtones and plays at a louder volume according to him/her. As to configuration, I don't know. I haven't tried it yet. I was probably gonna wait a bit and try it later. Maybe after the August updates.
Clean it with alcholo
Still not loud and doesn't use both speakers

I've tried every setting I could and the Pixel 3 ringers and notifications are still not loud and will not play out of the top speaker!
Someone should be able to figure this out?
It would really help if both speakers were utilized.

Yes both speakers work except for ringers and notifications.
I don't see why that shouldnt work, have you the audio modification library and audio compatibility mod installed from magisk?
Yes they are installed. No matter what I do the ringer will not come out of the top speakers nor get loud enough.

ok, ringtone/notification still low volume, but after testing the viper4android IS working in general sounds. Just not for the ringtone/notification, lol!
I haved personalised ringtone and the volume war too low. Since I use the officially ringtone, this is fine for me.
No solution found!

No, I haven't found a solution and the phone is still brand new in the box since it is useless if I can't hear it ring!
I also have a 3XL and the ringers and notifications also only come out of the bottom speaker but at a higher level.
I know someone can or has already figured it out.

What is the difference you see
There is no sound boost when ther slider is all the way to the right for clarity as well as sound.
Even if there is a sound boost,it is very very small
Depends on a lot of things actually...what app were you using while trying to boost sound through the video toolbox?, what were you listening it in..I mean , was it via 3.5 mm jack headphones or the inbuilt speakers or via bluetooth? All will give different reulsts and also depends on whether any other sound settings were tinkered as well.

Ok..So were you tinkering with the equalizer and other settings found in phone settings--->sound effects prior to doing this sound boost or was it in memory?This happens to me quite often when I play around with both settings..i.e. the sound effects settings and the video toolbox sound clarity and volume boost. The only way out for me was to clear the memory though recent apps and start the youtube app again and this time the sound settings in video toolbox actually works. Dont do both at the same time if thats the reason why its happening ( make sure both the sound effects and the youtube app is cleared from the memory). Best identified through headphones. On a side note, best setting for me via the video toolbox sound boost is clarity on 2 or 3 and volume on 2 or 3.

I haven't played around with the sound effects in settings yet, it's set on smart preset already,when you increase the sound and clarity can you actually sense the increase in sound quality or is it minimal?

Marked difference... quite an increase in sound quality...BTW mine is set on Video/Voice most of the times in Preset. I find that best in terms of loudness and have tinkered with the equalizer giving it a bit of bass. But thats about it
Edit Update: The video toolbox sound effects have little to no effect when the preset is kept in smart. Video or voice gives a good difference. Kindly check and confirm if thats the case.
