Vodo Control
Vodoo Control has been my choice when I faced the same problem while using GalaxyTask 6 , so here's the market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.controlapp&hl=en
And also if you want ( and I would suggest it since the sound issue is solved in both) you can also install GalaxyTask 13.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340064) or ICS AOKP (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459287)
All credits goes to the amazing developers .........
For Voodoo Control to work, you should have a custom kernel which have Voodoo patches like pershoot's kernal
I currently run "galaxy task 10"
kernel "[email protected] #1"

I'm running the latest Xylon nightly.
I use Play Music to stream my music while working out, and I want DSP manager to work so my headphones sound good. Works great with the included kernel. But if I flash Faux kernel (mainline or enhanced, doesn't matter) it breaks DSP manager. The app opens and appears to work, but there is no sound quality change when settings change. Motley kernel does the same thing. I'd like to be able to UV and uc for better battery life of that's possible without losing DSP manager functionality.
Any suggestions)

Better search for similar issues or post your question in the Faux or Motley thread. You will not be the only one with this problem.

you need the cm kernel to work with dsp manager. i suggest you try something else, Beats+xlouder. it works better than the dsp manager http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025486
Thanks! That worked great! My headphones sound good and I'm back on Motley kernel.

got to love android and its choices
So I just flashed AC!D audio mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923630) and it makes music sound GREAT I was just wondering what your guys opinion was.
I don't use it. Franco's kernel is enough for me.

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?

Hey guys, I am new to the nexus 4 forum. I have expeirince with Samsung phones but not this phone.
The question i have is i got recovery installed. Found my favorite rom which is slim rom 4.3.
But when i finished flashing it i had no sound at all... I started the process with the latest version of kit kat
If that helps. I personally just don't like kit kat yet, not enough features... Thanks in advance.
I also am taking ROM suggestions. Looking for one that will help the low sound on device.
My personal suggestion... Flash hells core kernel and download FauxSound from the play store. Hells core will enable the sound levels to be changed and FauxSound is what you can use to change it.
I use this setup as I use quite high end headphones and my nexus just can't produce the volume I like through them.

Thanks for replying..
Are you using TWRP or CWM? I use the latest TWRP and never had a problem installing ROMs.
Do you experience the sound issue with other 4.3 ROMs too?
