[Completed] force media volume error - XDA Assist

I'm sorry if i violate rules and terms. But I'm new here. Using xposed with Gravity Box module on kitkat. I have forced media volume control where my volume keys only control media volume and not ringer volume. successfully activating, hours later, my ringer volume reduces to just 1% and i just always gotta keep increasing em. Could it be module needs update or so or I didn't get something right, and if so, can I be heard out from this forum. please, I really like gravity box, helping me a lot but this little bug right now is really freaking me out. Thanks.

Still, nobody tryna help. ?

They're actually talking about upping the volume beyond the current maximum, which shouldn't really be too difficult. I'd love to see someone get this done.
i had suggested this before when the phone first came out, and all i got was "take that wax out of your hear! lololz0l"
lol why would anyone install bloat when they can press a button with their hand?!
anyhoo yep deffo need a bloody volume hack for this puppy - or this 18 month contract will kill me!
I was talking about ringer vol its so quiet
Ah ok, sorry i'm talking about the volume of the headphones it blows!
Yah, I'm hoping for it as well...This may be nothing but coincidence, or may be worth a look at, but I experienced something with Jewel Lust. I'd have music playing, and then i'd load up Jewel Lust to play with the game's sound off. And for some reason, when jewel lust loaded, the music got louder even though it was already on full volume. Maybe Jewel Lust has what we are looking for in the code. Since its all open source, maybe a dev or coder could take a look at the source and see what Jewel Lust is doing to cause the volume increase. Could be a fluke for all I know..but the volume >DID< increase from being at full after I started up Jewel Lust.
kooooooooool tep you should be a private eye!

I have my notifications/ringer set to max and can barely hear them in my pocket. I don't remember them being *this* quiet in 1.1. Might just be me though.
(and yes, I have the latest radio/etc).
yeah mine is too quiet as well i wish it had a train horn or something on it lol , then maybe i would hear it
i have it set to vib+ring and still miss most calls , plus i work in louder type environment
i'm sure a seem edit would do it, but seems everyone is afraid of those?
I agree with everything said in this topic.
Someone pelase make it
I am constantly missing calls due to this and its making me pretty frustrated with my awesome phone.
I was reading around and there is supposedly a file called "asound.csv" in the ETC folder where you can change the max volume. I don't have a file called that and the few sound files i cannot see how to do this. Does anyone else have any ideas on how to increase the max volume?
This is the site i was looking at

Good news and bad news.
First the bad news: Looking at that site, it looks like that information is in reference to the Openmoto Freerunner, not the G1.
Good news: I believe I've found where the volume config is stored. I've found a pair of CSV files with a good amount of volume related data. I'm not sure if there is a hardcoding of the volume itself in the files or not, but it looks like we're on the right track.
The files are /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv and /system/etc/AudioParaTMUS.csv
Here's some of the contents:

You are right it is for "Openmoto Freerunner" which makes perfect sense now as to why i couldnt find the file. I found the file you put in there as well but it doesn't seem to be very obvious (to me at least) what needs to be changed. I am going to give it a shot though... here is to hoping i can still use my phone as a phone once im done!

Question - How do I adjust the media volume settings

Ok I have searched alot for this answer and nothing has yet worked. The lowest volume setting is still too loud for my Shure E4c's. Can someone please help me. Thanks!

[Q] In-call volume

Hi everyone,
I unfortunately broke the button for the up-volume on my Omnia 7. Tried to remove the case and fiddle with button but nothing happened. I think it s the connection.
I found very useful apps such as Volume slider by Purushoth and Dllimportproject by fiinix.
Those are very useful for the master volume.(i.e. ringtones and music player)
But my problem is, when in a call, those apps do not change the in-call volume.
Mine is unfortunately at 1/10 right now and if I click on the down button then I am in trouble.
I found a solution which is to hard reset the phone but it is not always convenient to back up then reinstall everything and it only goes back to 6/10.
I read on a thread that someone used headphones to change the in-call volume but that did not work for me (beats headphone).
I emailed Purushoth and asked him about it and he said he would look into it but I have not heard back from him. Hopefully he can manage to tweak his app.
I m just wondering if anyone had the same problem and manage to fix it by any other way. Or if anyone would know how to get into the in-call volume ?
Thank you in advance,
Joesmaker
Go to HKCU\Control Panel\Phone and change the key "Vol" 0000FFFF (65535) is 10/10

Thank you so much. back at 10/10
You re a hero.
I ve been dying for a solution for months
always glad to help
I suggest you message the author of the Volume Control app so that the fix (tweaking that registry value) can be added to the app too; probably other people have this problem. Very good find!
Ok I ve just emailed the author of volume slider and told him about the tweak.
Thanks

[Q] Call volume really low

Is there an app or other software to boost the volume? All my volume settings are maxed and i cant really hear the caller. Sometimes, though, it comes in just fine, but most of the time it doesnt.
Thanks

I had this problem with another phone and after an extensive search, I ultimately gave up on it. I will share what I tried and maybe save you a little trouble.
First and simplest, try gently cleaning out the earpiece with a little toothpick, a pin, or better yet blow it out with some air. This seems to work for some people, as overtime gunk can build up inside the screen.
Next, there are a lot of apps that claim to work as volume boosters. Most of them are for speaker volume and not for in-call volume. After sifting through many of them I found one or two that claimed to help in call volume but they really did not work. If you go this route then "happy hunting".
Some ROMs have a hearing aid setting under the Accessibility options but I couldn't tell you which. The ROM I'm using has ways to change the volume steps for all volume settings and that might help (I'm using Liquid Smooth found here in the DEV section).
There is an Xposed module that enables you to adjust some volume steps.
Viper for Android gives you a lot of control over the sound of the device (it has Xloud) and it works well with the Apollo Music Player found on many ROMs but I can't say for sure it helps in-call volume. It sure makes music sound good though.
Last and hardest, if you are rooted and have a file managing app, you can go into the system files and edit them. This would probably require the assistance of a dev who could tell you exactly where these file are located and what the correct settings should be. Of course, there is always a chance of damaging your phone this way.
That's all I know. Hopefully, one of these options will work for you, or someone wiser will jumped in with a better solution. Good luck!
You need to tell everyone what software you are using and how long you have been having a problem.

[Q] How do I increase Bluetooth volume?

The overall volume on the Nexus 5 (and every Android phone I have had) is very low. I even just rooted my phone to adjust the volumes in "mixer_paths.xml" only to realize that I can only adjust headphone and speaker volumes there.
Is there a way to increase all media volume, or at least Bluetooth volume?
With almost everything I play on my Nexus 5, I have to set the volume at about 90% to get the volume right. That leaves no range if I need to increase it when something was recorded at a low volume. I would like to make it so that a normal volume setting is more in the 50% range.
Install Viper4Android sound mod from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/cz6l67mk81zsyq4/ViPER4Android_FX_v2330.zip
It increases the sounds system wide! If the normal apk install doesn't increase the system sounds, then push the apk in /system/priv-app/, fix permissions and reboot. It will surely work now

I found Viper4Android mentioned in other postings, but I am not fond of installing random packages off the Internet. Is there some way of verifying what that does before I install it?

I can assure you that v4a isn't some random mod floating around the internet. I've been using it since ages and it works perfectly.
If you want to know more about the same, you can follow this official v4a thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
If you aren't satisfied with the official thread, then you can even follow the V4A discussion thread in the Nexus 5 apps forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/viper4android-t2543796

I'll be that guy.
Questions go in the Q+A forum, not general. Normally I'd answer your question at this point, but there's no need. Next time use Q+A. That's what it's there for.

I wouldn't flash anything I don't trust either, but you have nothing to worry about with Viper.

You can also normalize those media files to the same volume as your other files. Easy to do if you're converting them yourself already.

I listen to things on BeyondPod and I haven't seen that they have any function for normalizing the audio. It would be nice since the podcasts seem to vary in volume. Actually, I guess that BeyondPod is the worst for having low volume. Pandora seems to vary in volume, but I don't usually have to set the volume to 100% to hear things.
Viper4android works
Sorry about posting to general. I don't know why I didn't notice there was a q&a section. I will know better next time.
I downloaded the source for viper4android from github and built it myself. Not that I went over every line of code before installing, but at least I know I made the apk.
https://github.com/vipersaudio/viper4android_xhifi
And it seems to work! At least for headphones so far, but I will try bluetooth. It is much, much more complicated than I was wanting, but I guess if it changes the gain, then that is great.
It's great for wired headphones. I don't see it being able to do much with Bluetooth volume though. Unlike every other volume, bt isn't kernel managed. It's managed in the bt stack. Unless viper does something special that I'm not aware of

It looks like the Viper volume gain adjustment does work with Bluetooth media as well on my Nexus 5, so things are working for me.
