Before Doing This Please Note: I Am Not Responsible For Your Actions, Do It With Your Own Risk . This xml File Is Modified On Sony XPERIA Z5 Premium Dual E6833 Running Android M 6.0.1
Hello Everyone.Since I Have Purchased Sony Xperia Z5 Premium I Realized That It's Amazing SmartPhone But Only Thing I Didn't Like Is Sony's Over Protective Audio System , Like Other Sony Waterproof/Dustproof Devices Sony Is Being Protectful And Creating Speakers With Low Volume (Not So Low Like You Can't Even Hear But Still Compared To Many Brand New Devices). I Don't Know About You But When I Have Headphones In My Ears I Don't Really Want To Hear Other Voices But I Actually Do With This Phone And With My Old Phone XPERIA Z1 Too. So I've Modified Files Which Requires ROOT ACCESS To Do , Called mixer_paths.xml . Many People Should Know About This XML File But If You Don't It's Actually Base File Of Sound Of Your Phone. So I Modified This File And My Sound Is Really Loud And Awesome Now. I Will Also Provide Original And Modified XML Files For You And To Replace Original File With My Modified One You Need To Have ES File Explorer (Or Other File Manager Which Can Access/Modify System Files) And You Need To Go To : device\system\etc And Replace My Modified XML File. Sound Is Greatly Adjusted And It's Recomended If You Won't Adjust Is More For Safety Of Your Speaker/Headphone . So , After Replacing Original mixer_paths.xml With My Modified One You Need To Reboot Your Device But Please Look At Screenshots First If You Still Want To Modify (Adjust Or Lower) Sound I Provided Images Are Below,Make Sure You Set "system" and "/" to R/W In ES File Explorer Click "Root Explorer" Once You Have Activated It And Granted Root Access And Select Mount R/W , Image Of Configuration Will Be Below In Screenshots Too.
If I Helped And "Mod" Works For You , Click THANKS Button P.S : It's Free

Alright , Long Story Short Is - I've Modified mixer_paths.xml system file to adjust Speaker/Headphones sound and to do it download my modified file from attachment and move it to system/etc and replace original one , if anything goes wrong there is original attachment too in this Post too, after replacing reboot your device , i recommend that you should not change values more than i did it because it's really loud enough
what is the difference between your modified xml and the one mentioned in this post?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5...lume-boost-headphones-boost-soundmod-t3261194
and is that possible to add your modified one again? if i have replaced it before with the other modified one cause i have done it before by the guide that explained in the link i added

I made a change in application SMS GO to stay with the appearance of the original application of the xperia. I edited the file using EDIT APK, but when trying to install the phone in an error, even using recovery.
NOTE: already edited several apk, but this is not the only one that installs.
If any developer can guide me would be grateful.
Attached is the edited and original apk.

I'm sure that there a right way to modify 3rd part app,but since the moment that I don't know too much, I can only suggest you to convert go sms in a system app (you can do that with titanium backup pro or maybe with some other app...try to google it) and then if you only need to change .png images you can just replace them into the apk file without extracting it and then push the app into system and reboot!! If you need to modify .xml files,you can use apk manager to decompile,compile and sign the apk!! if you try to modify a 3rd part app it will not work (I don't know the technical reason),so converting it in a system app is a solution to this problem!! But maybe you can wait to hear other opinion from anyone else with better knowledge than me!! hope it helps you!!

Which method do you used to mod your apk ?
Sent from X10i on M&M CM7.2 with Tapatalk
I used the program "edit apk" it decompresses and subscribes automatically.
The only job I had was to change the images *. png and rename
It worked for all other applications except the sms go

You change .9.png or just .png? For editing the first ones you should use a patch, search in the general Android Themes thread.
For editing and compiling system apps you should use apkmanager instead of editapk (wich I don't know)...
If ya need further advice mail or PM me.
And sorry for my bad english!

Something strange happened!
Developers, tried all the above methods to install the modified application, but all without success.
I used modified ROM "vmmcs" 2.3.7
Unintentionally I had to reinstall the original rom Xperia 2.3.3.
Before installing custom ROM again. I tried to use the apk HE RAN NORMALLY.
CONCLUSION: SOME APPS MUST HAVE A MEANS TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE ANDROID HAVE ROOT, SO IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE INSTALLATION
Hello, if u have the SMS apk, why dun u try to unzip/unpack the apk contents, replace the PNG icons in Res/drawable-hdpi inside sMS apps, and rezip/repackaged using Formatter? I try to edit my Custom xperia Home.apk icons and it worked!! Here the guide thread for formatter
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108798
Sometimes, u might need to recheck path of files directories which as same as previous file Hope this helps.

So here goes a simple guide for the noobs: who wants to change the .xmls file but always end with a error.
Disclaimer - Dont try this if u r not knowing what u r doing. Its ur own responsibility.
I have done successfully in my GALAXY ACE DUOS GT S6802
BACKUP THOSE SYSTEM FILES BEFORE U DO ANY MODDING
For this u will need :
1.Apk tool
2.root file explorer to push it from phone itself
>>First decompile required apk. [apk-tool recommended]
>>Make .xml changes [edit the clock, date, icons, etc]
>>save [ edit and save in notepad++]
>>recompile [apktool] [no-signing]
>>see log if any error in apktool folder
>> procced if not - [if there is something improper code u have placed - u have to see every code properly with the orignal .xml]
>>now u have two apks 1. orignal 2. modded
>> first push the modded one
>>if works !! great [Will surely not work for systemui.apk]
>> if not then open both apk using the 7zip [This will surely work for systemui.apk ] [Provided u didnt have changed the format of the xml]
>>copy the modded "compiled" .xml from modded apk to orignal apk to its corresponding location
>push the file [Orignal .apk file with the modded .xml ]
>now the file should work unless u have done any coding mismatch.
> Restart
>>Enjoy
Press thanks if u got success in modifying the files.
Any query u can ask freely
I searched at many place but didnt got an easy guide , so i tried 100's time to recompile and decompile the files finally , my own method worked and shared with u all
Removed clock from status bar completely.
For this I edited status_bar.xml and deleted whole clock code.

Hi,
Id like to know the location (folders) and filenames of the "Navigation Bar" icons (KitKat)
I know there are other solutions around, but Id like to change them manually (if possible)
-I was looking for SystemUI.apk in system/app already, but it is not there... ?
-system/framework has "framework-res.apk" which has various designs of the NavBar icons, but not those that are actually getting displayed
-The app "SoftKeyZ Root" changes "com.android.systemui" which should be a jar file ?
I got a Optimus 3D (p920) with nameless ROM (4.4.4) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772543
I read that it is ROM dependent if you can change it from within the NavBar menu
and nameless ROM does not seem to offer it.
Thats why I ask if I could find them (change them) in the folders/apks (if these exist).
So far I found this app :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.janis605.softkeyz
it says "not working on most samsung and LG phones" but it worked
Still, if anybody knows how to change it manually, I would appreciate it !
I can see the tool "SoftKeyZ Root" changes "com.android.systemui" (jar file ?)
and I found flashable zips for the Nexus device, to change "Navigation Bar" icons.
And I stumbled across this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/themes-apps/softkeys-softkey-collection-t1413582
So as I could not find the files, I tried "SoftKeyZ Root" on my Optimus 3D using nameless 4.4.4.
And it worked !
This is how it looks (and works!) when using "SoftKeyZ Root" :

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have seen that the app uses "com.android.systemui", but that should be a java (jar) file then ?
Any help in finding the origin of the fitting png graphics is appreciated ! ^^
*oops Edit*
You've nearly got the right answer already.
Those icons are in SystemUI.apk, that's right. But, for KitKat, Google moved that file from system/app to system/priv-app.
Have a look at my theming tool, Tickle My Android (tinyurl.com/ticklemyandroid). It has a variety of navbar icons to choose from and can change them for you.

While your tool indeed looks very powerufll and very(!) interesting, (I might even give it a try)
I usually love to unpack APKs (if I found them) and exchange files.
Anyway, big thanks for the answer and your tool ! =)

Hi everyone,
For those who are interested of having DSP Manager working on your LG G3, here you have it.
I have pulled the latest DSPManager from the build dated on the 7th September. The audio effects configuration has been adjusted to work with our devices. As far as i know, it works fine on my device (D855), and tested on 10i and 10j.
I suggest you backing up the audio_effects.conf before proceeding the steps below. You're on your own if this breaks your phone, as I only know that this works on my phone and make no promises that it won't brick yours or burn down your apartment etc.
Requirements
A File explorer which able to change permissions (Root Explorer or ES File Explorer?)
Your Rooted G3
Steps
Download the files below and copy them into your device
Copy DSPManager.apk, audio_effects.conf, and libcyanogen-dsp.so into your /system dir
Then change your permissions of those 3 files to chmod 644 (screenshot below to see how it looks like)
Then move DSPManager.apk to /system/app directory
Then for audio_effects.conf, it will be in /system/etc directory
For libcyanogen-dsp.so, it will be in /system/lib/soundfx
Once all of those 3 files be in the correct directory, reboot your device
Bam! There you go, you are done

Another words, if you planned to enable the ultra high resampler, check add this line into your build.prop (use JRummer's build prop editor):
HTML:
af.resampler.quality=4

Question of which is better DSP or VIPER?
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Almost works. If I enable any thing it chops the music up. On a 855
Search cm apps on Google playstore.. No root needed. Works fine on my g3
You can pick any App listed in that app

Yeah, not as good as I thought it was going to be. Back to ViPER instead. D855
Working perfectly, thank you!

I can't get dsp to change anything. I've tried both the cm app in playstore and this method. The only thing that will change eq so far is the music app.
Does the DSP Manager can resolve LG G3 Jack/AUX buzzing issue?

Thx !

hissing sound earphones fixed with this sound mod? Because Viper didnt solved this issue......[emoji17]
Will it works on V20 Lollipop ?
How can I use this on lollipop?
pretty simple mod, I hate how the ringtone and playback volume are not loud enough, so I changed it
MUST HAVE ROOT.
1.Navigate to /system/etc
2.look for mixer_gain.xml, open it up with some type of editors
3. change the value to 26 and 36 for playback speaker (max before running into too much distortion)
4. do the same for ringtone speaker, but I put 37, just a level higher than playback.
5.save the editor (root explorer will make a back up for you)
6.make sure the file correction are RW-R-R-- (I dont think it would changes but it doesnt hurt to check)
7. reboot
8. give me a thanks

Yes, I'd like to know if anyone has had success increasing the phone volume. Mixer_paths no longer contains the hack I used on my note 4 and when I edited other values in mixer_gain my phone locked up and I had a hell of a time (my fault really ) getting back where I was. Any help would be appreciated.

Download a stock mixer gain and adb push it to that directory. What did you change?
If you don't know how to adb then just go into recovery and dirty flash, hopefully that will work. If not clean flash
