I have tried almost everything with my g pro 2
I edited my mixer paths xml file to increase the sound,
also tried with snd_soc_msm_taiko file but did not succeed.
I am talking about the method in g2 where you could edit these files and increase the sound significantly.
Everytime i did this i got a softbrick and had to spend considerbale amount of time to restore it
So please any specialist do guide me on this, I really need help

You have to reset the permissions of those files before to reboot (when you edit and save them, their permissions are modified)

Yes, I did, and many times (in a G2 and in a G Pro2). And before do it I had two softbriks. When you edit the file and save it, you can see that the permissions have changed to "-rw-rw----". You must reset them to: "-rw-r--r--". If you don't dont it and reboot: softbrik assured.
There is an app in market called Equaliser.

This is working well.

I just use Viper4Android - far and away the best sound mod for any Android phone.
You need root but it's SO worth it...
Better sound, louder sound (or quieter, if that's what you want), and enough options for any audiophile!
Lg pro 2 has poor sound quality in headphone and speaker is not loud
Used viper4android and still not loud

Bumped D855 last night.
Anyone else having a issue mounting SD card in TWRP? I have a Samsung 64gb evo just wondering.
is MTP mode .. "Download" mode ?
& will there likely be an easier streamlined way to do this in the future or are those ADB commands & all that likely to stay the way..
Anyone else pumped for some rom baking? I can't wait to get some stock android
I need a video know how.....I don't understand how to do it.....

Looking at some of the other threads, it seems you card is probably formated as exFAT and it needs to be Fat32. Read more here: http://teamw.in/exFAT

is there a way I can do this without plugging my phone in ?
Wireless ADB for example..
Or can I use Terminal Emulator ?

As long as you can get the file to the root of the sdcard (I simply plugged my phone into the computer and moved the file over using Windows Explorer), you can use a terminal program. If you are following the direction in the bump thread, you won't start adp. Just issue the three commands starting with "SU" and then the two other commands follow (one at a time).
Works just fine.
Thank you for your hard work!! !!!!!!

I'm just trying to think of how to do it all without cording into my computer..
so if I download the file.. move it to the root of the sd with a file explorer..
fire up the terminal emulator & do those commands starting with SU
I should be all good in the hood ?

I have been rooting and custom romming sense my first smart phone. You guys rock. Thank you!
so I rooted my phone using TowelRoot. Based on the thread, the unlock bootloader process will factory reset the phone if it isn't root using Stump Root. So can I just apply Stump Root on top of my rooted phone before unlock to avoid factory reset?
Use flashify and be done with it that is unless you want to do the adb thing

what thread?
the OP says it must be Rooted. this is so ADB SHELL can gain access to the System partitions.
PS ( after you connect to adb make sure you grant root access to SHELL) (should pop up on your phone)
I'm pretty sure i used towel root to ease your fears.
when you use the last adb command you should see some feed back about moving some data... "lots of bytes" moved to here in XXX amount of seconds thats how you know it worked.

You are right. I misread it. Thanks.
I saw someone else mention flashify.
Anyone tried it & sure it works?
Also I'm considering trying terminal emulator. 1 person said it should work.
Any other opinions?
Worried I'll do it & have a problem haha.
Flashify would be great too if it worked.
Anybody actually tried either?

2.8.1
The way i have been able to edit mine is booting into recovery, mounting system, using ADB to pull it, edit it then push it back and set permissions.
I cant figure out which lines i need to amend to increase the speaker and headphone volumes though. What i change seems to have no effect and if i change to much it ends in a bootloop.
Any ideas?

i believe you have to mount the entire / root or /system/ as as RW first. I believe one of the tutorials for getting root showed how to do this in ES Explorer

Hi everyone, I just made this simple tweak and wanted to share it.
I know there are other modified files out there but I noticed that they just modify the HEADPHONES and the SPEAKER volumes. With this one you'll get the boost into your HANDSET (in call voice), AUX, HEADPHONES (and HEADSETS of course), SPEAKER and HEADPHONES ADVANCED (wich I believe is the bluetooth headset)
I've set the values as following, to provide a perfect audio experience for you all, that maintains the PERFECT sound quality of this phone but at much more higher volumes.
If you want to go ahead and raise the values, you'll lose sound quality due to the extreme volume:
SPEAKER= 64
HANDSET= 62
HEADPHONES AND HEADSETS= 64
HEADPHONES ADVANCED (Bluetooth I think?)= 64
AUX= 64
With these values, my Razer headset shakes like crazy and my 8" sub at 40% volume makes my windows cry
I'm still looking for a fix with the AUX "weird sounds and clicks" that everyone has with their G3 but as long as there's sound coming out of the AUX cable, there's no problem at all.
Here's the file:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxxVfj_H_QSRVG5ROUxBb0FTSm8/edit?usp=docslist_api
Just navigate to /device_ /etc_ and replace the file, then change permissions to "RW_R_R" and reboot, done.
This should also work on AOSP roms
Enjoy your insane loud volume
Just flashed it in g3 32gb stock rom and it perfect thanks bro awesome mod. Sound is way better and no distortion at all
Installed on my D855 and it worked! Thanks man. I tried to max the volume up and I believe a part of my ear was destroyed. Haha.

Go to your file manager and go to "/device", then "/etc" folder and copy and paste my file, you have to be rooted though and then you can change permissions to RW_R_R, reboot your device and you're good to go

This only works on D855 as said in the title... And you have to copy and paste the file and change it's permissions, nothing else, I don't know why it doesn't work on your variant, sorry

Problem
Hello, I replaced the file and indeed I got higher volume in headphones. But I don't have volume anymore in my speaker
And the stock mixer path didn't fix the problem.
PS: I'm running AOSP Resurrection ROM Lollipop
Thank for the help

Did you changed permissions? What is your android version? Can you check if you have a file called "mixer_paths_qcwcn.xml"? If so, I can upload that file and you can replace it

Yes , my permissions is rw- r-- r--
My android version is 5.0.2
And no I don't have that file in device/etc
It should still works even if you unroot with SuperSU right?

Try to reflash it, it's kinda weird but I think it might have to do with your android version

Will changing values in this app cause an ota to fail? OTA fails when manually making the edits. And if yes, does the ota then work after using the restore values option?
I already bricked my phone once playing with these files too much, so never again. Hope this app makes it easier and still won't block ota if i restore values
Great work mate !!!!
works amazing :good:
thx
Can someone please reupload the file?
Hey guys, just got my Pixel today. I was wondering if there is a mod that turns the earpiece into a loud speaker like the mod for the XL? Thanks.
I am using this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/themes/mod-enabling-dual-speaker-audio-playback-t3492257
However, do note that the earpiece speaker is too soft and negligible to work together for Stereo. My goal is to get the speaker to be louder and it does that.
It's all explained in the thread

Does this work for the non-XL pixel? The reason I ask is because I thought that was only for the XL. I'll give it a try tomorrow though.

I just tried to do the mod and it hasn't worked for me. When I try to use the adb commands, it always says no such file or directory. I even tried the older method of dowloading the mixer_paths file but I can't change permissions for that. How did you manage to do it?

Well, there are 3 steps.
For first step, I simply copied the gz file into the /data/local/tmp folder using root explorer. I found this method easier than ADB.
For 2nd/3rd step, you need to execute the commands in root shell. (type su, enter) to grant root access before doing the 2 commands.
