I haven't been able to find any other posts on this, so if this question has already been answered, I apologize.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I can't find a way to link the ringtone and notification volumes on my S4. This feature has been present in every other android phone I've ever used, so I can't imagine Samsung would choose to omit it. Does anyone have any insight on this?
*bump*
Anyone?
Use master volume is disabled in the framework-res.apk

Why would they do that?
Same reason they disabled home and lock screen rotation

And wallpaper scrolling. They're the worst.

Have people done this yet? I am using the GOLDENEYE ROM and would love to have these volumes linked up. I decompiled framework-res.apk, but I have no idea which file to add this option to.

So I've used xposed framework and then used tweak box module for call recording and I've also used a individual call recording module and on both of these the button comes up in the dialer but once pressed it eighther freezes my phone and I have to wait for the force close to come up or it does nothing.. I'm on stock touchwiz I've also used a apk that I've used on the galaxy s3 and even that won't work.. So has anyone been able to get this working on stock touch wiz?

Until a mod comes along, I'm using an app called InCall Recorder from the Play store. It does a good job recording calls. The only thing it cant do for our S4 is call recording through Bluetooth headset.

What settings did you use to record both sides? I didn't have any luck with this app.

I didn't change much, if at all, from the stock install setup. My call record is set to Manual, record activate button set up to the Left side, and Gain of +2.
I don't know if shabby's recovery is a stock kernel but that setting didn't work for me. I'll try again.

I don't know if the kernel matters but I was using shabby's kernel with the frandom module. Right now, I'm using agat's v0.2.0 kernel.

I'm using the stock kernel and the app doesn't work for me. It does have really good reviews though.

Bah, it's not working for me as well. I wonder if it's b/c I'm now on MDL with a non-stock kernel. I did try with the Speaker option, however, and recording through the speaker still works.
Cant wait until someone comes up with the call recording mod.

I'm stock MDC. I love the way they have this app setup though. It's very easy to use. It has great reviews and people seem to say it works. Hopefully they'll update it to work with the s4.
Can someone see if they can get this mod working on the galaxy s4 speakers are to low...

What you might find loud enough for your uses might not be for others! Like for me if I'm trying to watch a video on anything when I'm in a room with people talking or any noise I can barely hear anything.
I would recommend looking up ViPER4Droid. You can find the thread in the Android Software and Hacking forum. All you so is download both of the APKs (there called XHiFI and HF or something like that, forgot the exact acrynom) in the thread for your android version and put them on your sd card - there is a zip for each one and when you extract them you will get two more zips, one for 4.0 or before and one for versions after, extract the appropriate zip and youll get the apk you need. Install both of them and when you open them up it will prompt you to install a driver, look at the thread for which one to install, and then reboot and your good to go.
You then can open up the apps and there is an abudant amount of settings you can adjust. One of them being speaker loudness level.
But dont follow my instructions, the thread is very thorough and detailed! And explains everything about it, confirmed working on our device, its actually implemented into Blue Kuban already.

If you're rooted try faux kernel with the faux sound found in the market. It works beautifully there is also a beats bass enhancer that you can use with it.

I bought my s4 last night and the first thing I noticed was that the low speaker volume. I will preach viper mod. I came from the galaxy s2 running jellyverse 3.0 with viper pre installed and WOW the speaker volume is insane loud. On that phone. Thank you inlineboy for verification that this works. Ive searched and found nothing for s4, until now. Installing now ill come back with results.
Ok Back from install. I downloaded fx and XHiFi apks. Installed both drivers. In the Fx app I enabled eXtra Loud and sat it to extreme. Opened XHiFi Enabled it and sat both to small speakers. I did not tweak anything else and the speaker is 2x as loud. The ink effect lock screen is very loud now. Every sound on s4 is 2x loud. Overall Its a score. For those who want to fix their low volume problem, this is the it. I hope this helps someone. Im running stock rooted mdl. I rooted using chainfires method. Installed busybox.

ViperFX is amazing. I have it baked into my E4GT ROMs and I'm running it now.
One thing I found is the driver folder needs to be on the external SD Card to have the drivers show up in the app.

Thats where I found it good ole e4gt. You guys done a great job with that phone. Your roms ran so good when I got my s4 it felt like a slower phone with a bigger screen! Glad to see the same faces over here.

I am currently on The Blue Kuban ROM and it has the Viper Mod built in already. What settings should I adjust or is there something else I need to flash to get my main speaker louder?

I just installed both packages. Hit enable at top and tick xtra loud. After that it worked for me. All sounds much louder. The ink effect in public or the default text rijgtone whistle is so loud people look lol.

I am going to sound dense her but so what.....
What exactly did you do to "install both packages"?
I wear hearing aids and a louder rear speaker even for the alarm clock would be a godsend.
Quality and boost. Am I right g-ding?

hi guys, when I use a custom ringtone, the ring seems to be cascading. for example, it starts off quietly then randomly blasts the sound full volume. I haven't touched any settings and my ringtones are all standard .mp3 files cropped with ringdroid. when I use the pre-installed ringtones it doesn't do this but it vibrates first and then rings. any tips? thanks.
It's called ascending ringtone... normal stock galaxy behavior. Most custom roms disable it or have the option to disable it. I dont think there is a stock setting to turn it off though cant remember for sure and dint have time to check.

In order to rid yourself of this, the only solution I have found thus far is the app "Disable Increasing Ring."

Hello all,
This in my theme that I've been using since JB was first released, I like it and see no reason to change it. Just want to share with others that may like it or decide this would be a good starting point for their theme.
I'm pretty sure this will work on all phone screen sizes, I've personally tested this on the N5, N4 and Galaxy Nexus.
This Mms was taken from AOKP nighlty version 4.4.2-eng..20140513.000013.
EDIT!! Added normal back and forth version, same build version and the other.
Nice app but i cant for some reason hear my notifications , on settings its set to silent then i choose a tone but it still wont change from silent. Any ideas? Oh and thanks for this .

I don't know, it's working for me. Have you tried clearing your cache and fixing permissions? Those are usually my go to solutions.
