[Q]question on build.prop

I was playing around with build.prop, then I found certain texts. What does the settings below do :
htc.audio.alt.enable ?
htc.audio.hac.enable ?
htc.audio.beats.state ?

as for the first two im pretty sure they deal with voice quality of the mic by changing clipping of the audio. the sound is good as is anyway so no need to change right? as for the beats line im not sure but maybe if beats is enabled during your applications?

Yep, everything seems good so far. I just want to understand more on these settings. Is there a wiki for build.prop?

this link has a few things on what you can do in build.prop

If it is the phone, and I believe it is, you have to try 1) a custom ROM, 2) very good quality earphones or 3) there is a music app which allows a simple, powerful volume boost through the equaliser, the app is called Rocket Player, I use it and it overcomes my low audio problem.

Hey do you happen to know if there is some kind of a mod to boost the volume for a couple of dB? Equalizing is not the same and I'm sure that this phone can playback music a lot louder, I'm using headphones because I don't like earphones.

I use the app Volume Boost and works fine when I turn the phones.
The sound is perfect.

Could you please provide exact link to Google Play?
I tried some of these https://play.google.com/store/search?q=Volume+Boost&c=apps
And none would work. They would only stop songs from playing at all. I'm on stock, no root.
Edit:
I just bought the Volume Boost app the one with speaker in icon, it doesn't work so I got a refund. None of those work. I guess I will have to edit out some values by hand after rooting.
Thanks anyway

OK I just bought it and it doesn't work. Got a refund.
It just stops the music or downmixes sound to mono in my case. I guess Xperia J's kernal is different or something.

Just put CM on it, it's very stable, + you get the db limit removed, and you get DSPManager.It's much louder than the stock ROM.

But I want to keep Sony UI and all, is there any way I could replace some files manually and boost up the dB? Like a prop file or something? It's really frustrating. I get it that have to limit it due to some sort of laws but come on..
So far I've managed to track down few files at:
etc/audio_effects.conf which calls for Hearing Protection service?
etc/AudioFilter.csv which is exactly the same as in CM roms, so it can't be it
Any idea on the Hearing Protection?
Edit:
I've tried removing all of these from the audio_effects.conf but no luck, the volume is still cut off.
soundaura removes the studio reverb menus,
vpt the More.. menu in the sound enhancements menu.
clearaudio the equalizer in walkman player
hearing protection is what I thought it would be but it doesn't work
clearaudio {
path /system/lib/soundfx/libclearaudiowrapper.so
}
vpt {
path /system/lib/soundfx/libvptwrapper.so
}
soundaura {
path /system/lib/soundfx/libsoundaurawrapper.so
}
HearingProtection {
path /system/lib/soundfx/libhearingprotection.so
}
}
Edit #2:
Removing entire lib/soundfx/ doesn't do anything except for disabling stuff in the Walkman player. I've also tried to remove from system/app/ everything somehow related to audio and it wouldn't work either.
I will get on that tomorrow. eh...
Edit #3:
I've tried to replace libaudio files with the ones from one of the CM roms which are different from xperia... but that made the stock ROM unable to boot at all, had to reflash the phone using PC Companion (The update phone function + fix).
I don't think I'm able to boost up the volume on the stock ROM. Oh well...

Did anyone find a way to boost up the volume by now? It would be great...

Hey check this out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...2Z0LmVudGVydGFpbm1lbnQudm9sdW1lLmJvb3N0ZXIiXQ..
Boosted my volume by 28%. really makes a difference.
The best way to know its working is to run some music up max. then boost it in the app. It works really well

What about using equalizer like in ttpod? If the sound is still slow, its better to get cmoy.
Now using:
Sony Xperia tipo ST21i
stock 4.0.4
11.0.A.4.22
(rooted, locked bootloader)

Cant get past installing flash drivers in xp.

[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.

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.

It works flawlessly on my Note 3 N900.

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

Increase Your Stereo Effect and Loudness on your Speaker

Hello friends, after spending more time with my mi 10 codename umi I have found a way to get more stereo effect from your beloved speakers of mi 10 and better visual quality when watching videos too. Now you need to go to settings and special features then click video tools and there you can see manage video apps and add any music or video playing apps to use this feature and that's so you can get those tools by opening the desired app that you selected in toolbox settings and if you're on that music or video app just you might able to see that transparent shortcut at the edge of the screen and swipe right or left to open tooltbox from there you can actually click sound and video filters and then you can customise it according to your needs x
If you're a super user you can get viper with MAGISK installed and I have already made a post about it .. You can check it by going this link and thank you
