I picked up a pair of jaybirds I absolutely love. I've upgraded to kitkat and I rooted it, what is the best way to go to raise the volume on my bluetooth headphones? They sound nice I don't want to blow my ear drums but would like a little more kick, thank you. - Chris
I use viper4android fx and it work brilliantly. My volume is set to only 25% and the music is so loud and awesome. But only downside is you need to be Rooted to use it.

mixer_paths.xml controls the audio in KitKat.
/system/etc/mixer_paths.xml
I'd suggest google more info on this before playing with the settings. Good luck!!!

I did. I managed to increase the volume with plug in ear buds but what about bluetooth?

You may have better luck with this. I use Moderate or Moderate Lite. Just make sure it's compatible with whatever device you are using. It works on my AT&T Note 3 though.
Hi everyone
I have noticed that the max volume with earphones on is still too low compared to my old Note 3.
\Any way we can boost this past max volume ? I have tried all setting in audio but none has solved my issue. I think its just a fact that S6 have lower volume when earphones are on.
If possible i would prefer not to root.
Thanks !
Sorry for my bad english,

For the most part I listen to music one or even two steps lower then max volume and it is very loud ... Maybe you should not use default ear buds ... Buy better ... I have one monster by Dr dre and they are loud as hell ...

Install cm audio fx from tmobile forum of the s6 in the theme section. Works great to boost the volume.

Appears awful when compared to my s5. Any Base makes vocal go almost to a pint you can't hear it and too much vocal results in tinny Base.
I've rooted and put v4a on the phone,but it's still awful with that too. Hoping a kernel with audio enhancements such as boeffla may make things better though?
you rooted S7E already?? WOW
I don't care about the audio quality of the noise coming out of that little noisemaker they call "speaker" but when I plug it in my car with the AUX cable, it seems to me so far that I have to fiddle with EQ much more than on my Note 5. The audio quality of LG Flex 2 was better than S5, Note 5 better than Flex 2, S7E... ? I don't know yet. Probably better than Flex 2 but it can't touch Note 5. IMHO
Note 5 has Wolfson chip AFAIK.What's in the S7E I don't know.

V4A? May i ask how did you managed to install it on a enforcing kernel?
Could you please provide steps...
Player04 said:

How?
Guys, check the kernel and ROM forum. Root has been available since Saturday.
V4a works by flagging a zip file that makes changes to v4a to allow it to work with kernel selinux enforced set, then put v4a in compatible mode. It sounds awful though for some reason.
Would highly recommend using neutron from the play store as I found this produces far superior sound quality.
Oh I should mention root is only available for exynos version and not snapdragon.
I find the audio fine using the music player neutron and have setup soundalive and UHQ upscaler and tube amp pro.
I use Sennheiser MOMENTUM In-Ear

Aux Cord Noise~?
I'd love to know if I am the only one experiencing problems with using an auxiliary jack cord?
It's littered with noise no matter what. Headphones sound great though...
I returned my first device thinking there was a physical problem with the port only to find the same problem in this one.
5 different auxiliary cables purchased and tested all poor quality only on this device.

Yes, same here. Switching on UHQ upscaler in sound setting fixes it. Sometimes, however, I have to toggle it off and on to get rid of the hissing noise.

I appreciate that, I'll have to try and let everyone know if that works.. I saw threads on other websites with no answers so really, thank you.
Seems rather odd even samsung support has no idea about this either.
But Samsung uhq upscaler work only with Samsung headphones (like level on wireless pro), so possibility of using this feature is limited

Identical issue for me as well. Thought I was going insane...tried three different aux cords and tried cleaning inputs in the car and on the phone. Headphones work fine. Toggling UHQ upscaler fixes the issue for me too. Very annoying....but glad I'm not the only one.
I am extremely disappointed with the S7 Edge's audio quality. First of all, the bundled earphones are bad and be it any file - FLAC UHQ 24 bit or an MP3, the sound pis very muddy. They fail to do justice to the lows and highs. Speaking for the device, my dad's Galaxy S5 sounds wonderful with heavy bass without compromising on the highs and the same goes with the Note 3. Samsung should have used a decent DAC and software to make the sound good for such a premium device. Even the low end Samsung devices have a good DAC.

If you want a phone for Audio get a ZTE Axon 7, HTC 10, LG V20. Only devices that are aiming for great audio quality :good:

There is nothing wrong with the DAC. It has a low noise floor and the frequency graph is almost completely flat. The headphone amp however is nothing to write home about. On the Exynos version you can at least edit the mixer.xml file to reduce the gimping Samsung did to the volume level to get a much louder sound without distortion. My RHA MA 750i have plenty of bass without the need to EQ etc.
Oh and the stock buds SUCK ASS

Don't feel like rooting the phone! I regularly use S Health and Knox.. I hope Samsung fixes audio in the next update (if that's possible).

Definitely not a need to root BUT if you do, you can still use S Health and Knox with Helios ROM (Stock with optional mods).
They won't. They've gone with the "good enough" approach with the audio rather than wanting to be the best.

Hi mate
I installed that mod , works great...if you are root you can try it and see if you like it ...you can always revert to original if you do not like it
i love my honor 6x, but there is one really weak spot that makes me using my Galaxy S4 again. Sound output.... I love bass and when i boost the bass even a little bit in the EQ the sound gets terrible. When the bass hits, the volume goes low and when the bass is gone it gets loud again. My S4 is better in this point, i can crank up the bass that high that it could destroy my headphones without losing any volume. Any fix for this?
root your phone and use Viper4Android and other modules to tweak
Other than Viper4Android as mentioned by shashank1320, using it in combination with Dolby Atmos can really make tracks sounds clearer and better. Give 'em a try!
viper+dolby atmos for zte axon 7
Thats all i tried so far, but it doesnt solve my volume problem. Phone goes to eBay.
Unfortunately you can't improve the sound quality (viper4android doesn't do much)

try jet audio player , it improves the volume through earphones
Use magisk module of viper4android v2.3.4
Phone sold already, got an Axon 7. Now i can blast my brain out <3
I use external dac/amp, but of course Huawei had to screw USB port as well and it works only with UAPP. Probably my last device from Huawei. Why all android manufacturers can't stick with USB specifications? Hate to say it but I am starting to think about Apple ?
