J dont think that it is posted here,so from Diamond forum the file below makes Raphael sounds louder.Test it to mine & works, BUT it's a little disorted (with .wav files j use) ,maybe someone with enough knowledge fix it.
Media player now its loud, havent test it in incoming ringtones or bluetooth.
It doesnt sound well when SRSWOW is on.
The problem is that there is not enough power available from the audio amplifier. This can't be corrected with software.
What this .cab does is probably that it tries to increase the amplification beoynd the capabilities of the device. This may make the sound seem louder, but as you have noticed, it also increases distortion. There is no workaround for the laws of physics...
So we are really really stuck with a very inferior product.
I installed SRSWOW but lost all sounds

Did you change the dll file in the registry so that if points at the right one? Its been written a couple of times the the SRSWOW cab going about set the wrong values in the reg. So I think this should be an easy fix if you do a bit of searching. Try the Daimond forums.
Either this problem varies from device to device, or then Ijust dont understand how loud you guys need...
When my wife calls, she shouts so loud I even have to tone done volume
@WizP: I'll do a search for the fix.
@Taajuus: The sound must be decent enough....

I have my volume set to the halfway mark. I'm talking about the conversation volume, only settable while in a call, not the system or ringer volumes.
Those that are reporting low volume, is it the ringer, system, or call volume you are complaining about? In other words, is it the front or the rear speaker that's producing low volume?
The ring volume is more than fine, it's just the speaker volume when in a call, when outsuide you can hardly hear it
Yes, I concur.
I've got my in call volume at maximum and you can still barely hear the other person.
Before you ask, I don't have a screen protector covering the earpiece.
I still wonder - I havent had any problems with incall voice. Can hear person very clearly even outside in traffic noise.
Could this really be single device problem, or maybe operator dependant?
With that audiopara file in my raphael (ROMeOS V.1.05) the speakerphone volume is now hugh,the music playback is loud, but a little disorted, but j think that there was no serious change in incoming ringtones (though j use only wav files-that are much louder from mp3's.
As far as the disortion a new modified audiopara file that suits well with Raphael should make the difference.
J will try some mods with SRSWOW..
Worked here... But the sound is VERY distorted..
Couldn't find a way around it with SRS (Tried treble reducer) and no luck.
I can´t even here when I´m talking to somebody, but I still have that plastic over the earpiece but still! There´s NO sound at all through it (well really really low), I have max volume, will it get better with the screenprotecter that doesn´t block the small speaker?

REMOVE THAT. It's the same thing if I tried to yell to you with a wall in between us. Sound has difficulty traveling through a medium, specially a piece of plastic.
Dear Taajuus,
Could this really be single device problem
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well... yes sit can because:
1. There are several related problems that are not seen in all devices.
2. Not all Raphaels [Touch Pro] are the same model, make or version.
or maybe operator dependant
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It can never be related to the operator because:
1. The operator's interaction with the device is the one of a comm carrier.
2. It's only possible influence would be with/thorough the radio, never the ROM.
3. The operator cannot directly interact with the hardware.
Cheers.

how do you install this?
The sound is distored cause tripp modified the values of the gain but put it too high. If some one could put lower values it would be great. I tried but didn't manage . I also tried to put the values of the HTC NIKE but it resulted in a lower sound that the original one.
How to install audiopara (to 'ekerbuddyeker")
Get in /Windows,search for audiopara3.csv, MAKE A BACKUP, use resco exp. and copy the new audiopara to /Windows, soft reset and done.

Ah, so that's how you install it ololol better write this on the first post...
Well for me this file really fixed the sound of my device, specially the earspeaker!! Now I have to lower the system sound so I don't get deft
I recommend everyone to use it...
So do u actually mean that this cab file has increased the volume on a call or just the general sound???
As we all know the volumes on the XZ1C are very low especially the loudspeaker , feels bad when your are on Call or Music with loudspeaker and when the Mic sensitivity is low when the phone is not near the mouth.
I have done some changes in Mixer_Path.xml which helped to increase volumes.
Hope that helps Z1C owners who need only some boost in sounds rather than third party custom sound mods.
Device must be on stock KK rooted and this also may work on XZ1
INSTRUCTIONS:
PLACE THE MIXER_PATHS.XML FILE IN SYSTEM/ETC DIRECTORY WITH 0644(RW-R--R--) PERMISSIONS AND REBOOT
Hit Thanks if you liked it
I'm on lasted Stock KK,Rooted + Odex, but i cannot flash this mod via TWRP.

Hi! Would you care to prepare one XML without the loudspeaker's modification? It's distorted on 60% already.
The headphones's volume is much better though, thanks!

Speaker section in that XML is what impacts the call loudspeaker and music loudspeaker together.
Let know what you want !!
I tried to go through the xml but I can't find the speaker section to change the values.
All I need is what I said earlier: stock loudspeaker volume, because it is distorted around 60% volume already. Thanks!

Thanks for this, this phone is now perfect, headphone volume is spot on, I don't know if the speaker is a bit to loud though, on full volume the phone is vibrating with the sound and u can actually feel the air being blown out of the speaker grill! In the 2nd file u posted above is the headset volume still the same and just speaker a bit lower?

This mod is brought to you by @langeveld024! If you like it, make sure you thank one of his posts as well. I have just tested the mod and modified the volumes to match our device.
Surround Sound/True Stereo MOD for the LG G2
This MOD requires ROOT
What is this?
This is a mod that allows the phone to use the earpiece combined with the loudspeaker to play sounds and music, thus resulting in a surround sound-like effect. The mod is made by editing mixer_paths.xml
Is it safe?
I've been thoroughly testing it on my LG G2 running OptimusG3 1.4.1 and CloudyG3 2.1. I tuned the sound to what I think the earpiece can handle without getting damaged. The earpiece is very clear and produces wonderful sound, but it's not that loud at all.
Other members of this fantastic community have tested the MOD on LiquidSmooth 4.0 (Lollipop) and on Stock LG firmware and reported that it works flawlessly!
Installation instructions
1. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP - PLEASE! This mod has ONLY been tested on OptimusG3 1.4.1 and not on any other ROM. So please make a nandroid so you can restore your phone in case it goes sour! I may be able to provide a flashable zip in the future, but till then, make a nandroid!
2. Copy your current mixer_paths.xml from /system/etc to somewhere safe then download mixer_paths.xml.
3. Move it to /system/etc and give it 644 permissions. 644 permissions looks like this:
xxo
xoo
xoo
4. Reboot and enjoy surround sound.
General piece of recommendation - Use this mod in conjunction with dorimanx kernel, as dorimanx kernel allows you to tune the loudspeaker volume easily using STweaks. You may need to turn down the volume quite a bit (-10 in STweaks) to avoid the loudspeaker overruling the earpiece. But then you'll really notice the mod!
Test the mod
To test if this works see: Left/Right Stereo Audio/Visual Test.: http://youtu.be/dvqbq_0jZ_U
I don't like this, what do I do?
Just move the original mixer_paths.xml that you copied to somewhere safe back into /system/etc and overwrite the old file. Then reboot.

reminded me of a classic acid techno track from the 90's
http://youtu.be/-YNW8Azq9TA
btw working nice on cloudy g3 2.1 with dorimanx kernel (stweaks sound settings on a screenshot, i tried to equalize both "speakers" as much as possible)
as you can see, main speaker gain is at its lowest setting (-10 vol)
btw do you think this mod will somehow affect in-call volumes? (mic & speaker)
btw i hope @dorimanx can somehow include this mod in stweaks as well...
only downside to this is that i mostly rotate my device 90ccw so left and right channels are switched but no biggie...
and i wouldn't call this "surround". something like "true stereo" would be closer
i tried a few sound tests on youtube and it really sounds better with this mod... music as well...
yeah cool mod, only downside the difference between the two speakers. The small one distorts easily, but indeed stweaks can help with that.

Thanks for the nice feedback.
I forgot to add to add that to the OP, as I use the exact same settings as you do in STweaks.
This mod shouldn't affect in call volume since it's made by copying headphone path into the speaker path and using the earpiece, so the earpiece only lines are left untouched.
I also rotate my device 90 degrees ccw and when I do that, my left speaker is the earpiece and right speaker is the loudspeaker. It might be different between cloudyG3 and optimusg3.
I really want some feedback from people who are using stock based ROMS.
-as for the loudspeaker volume, it's a thing that I need to consider. If I turn it down too low to achieve 'true stereo' i think people will complain that their overall sound is too low. And if I don't only people with dorimanx kernel will be able to tune the volume easily.
Then just suggest everyone should install dorimanx, simple as that

i'd always give my vote to clearer, better sound than giving it to a louder sound...
even though - the sound isn't that low with those settings (-10) it somehow just feels right now...

That's exactly my experience as well! So I think it's safe to say that this mod works for G3 based roms but for optimal sound quality, you need to use dorimanx kernel and turn down speaker volume to -10.

I just flashed CloudyG3 2.1 to check what you said about left/right right/left You're completely right about it being changed. I'm on it =D

ok mate i just wanted to save you a bit of work
btw i forgot to mention
yesterday when i downloaded the file using the mobile device - it downloaded some kind of a ".bin" document (but i renamed it to "mixer-paths.xml" and everything was ok)
now i downloaded the new (cloudy) version from my PC - filename is correct...
just mentioning this to help someone if he/she got confused with the filenames (it's obviously some dropbox/android/android browser issue)
cheers, and thanks a bunch again
---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------
update:
i've installed the new xml, but the left channel is still right when rotated ccw (counter-clockwise)
it's ok when in cw (clockwise) rotation...
Requirements:
1. Root
2. X-plore or any other file manager with root access
Procedure:
1. Extract and replace "mixer_paths.xml" in root/system/etc
2. Change the permissions to rw-r--r--
3. Restart your mobile
Note:
I won't be responsible if anything goes wrong.
I'm also providing the stock xml file if you want to revert back to the original settings.
Thanks to AndroPlus for providing custom kernel & recovery for the Z5P Dual.
***Version 2 added with sound from both speakers in speaker mode during a voice call***

It seems like it goes off automatically because of security? Maybe because the device "thinks" I'm using headphones and it will damage my ears when I set the volume this high. I'm using the aux cable for in my car.

i just tested your soundmod, i think the speaker's have a hardware-security-function because at full volume the speaker's are about 2 sec loud and then somehow again a bit more quiet something like a protecting feature, can't say if it is software-limited or hardware-limited.

I Mean is Ringtone sound comes from both speaker for incoming Call & Notifications Sound ?
Yes, both speakers play the ringtone. Sound from the bottom speaker is louder than the top one.

I have oneplus one i opened it just out of curiosity and i broke(scrapped off) 3 diod from main chip-set placed just above mic flex cable connection slot. My mic stopped working. while recording video i get beep sound + my sound but while calling i only get beep sound. I dont think hardware repair is possible so i was wondering if there is any software way to make other mics as primary (any specific ROM that offers this or any other manual coding method)?

You can always rub your finger over the mic. If the noise is low, it`s not that mic that is being used.

How did the script run???
I have the same exact problem. My HTC One main mic has been damaged, whenever Im on call the other end only gets the static noise but can hear clearly in loudspeaker mode (ie from my secondary mic), is there a way to disable the primary mic and make the secondary mic as primary ??
