[Q] Audio hack increase? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I found a post here where you could edit a mixer path file to increase the audio output but the one they had was not the same code or something cause my sound was gone during calls so I could not hear the caller unless I used a headset.
So my question is what values do you edit there to change Headphones & Main speakers?

Which version of the N4 do you own? Exynos or Snapdragon? If exynos - you're supposed to edit default_gain.conf file instead of mixer_paths. Here's a post for exynos n4 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/mod-galaxy-note4-volume-boost-t2930614

i would like to back to the default file because when i put the max volume it's not good for the loudspeaker...
Could you give me the default file located in /etc/default_gain.conf. and upload it on the web (dropbox or others)

Did you transfer the Moto G4 Play XML? Don't do that lol.
Just use a root explorer (or adb), and manually edit /etc/mixer_paths.xml. Any values that read "84", change to "92 or 94".

Mixer_paths.xml

Hi all
On most android phones you are able to edit the mixer paths file to make the phone louder but this phone doesnt seem to have that file. Does anyone know how this can be done or where the file is located?
Thanks
Brezzz
I don't know if it helps but have you tried
"mixer_volumes_default.xml" in /etc/audio/hi6402
Or maybe
"maxim_default.xml" in /etc/audio/maxim
?
Or could be in /system/etc... too
Hi
Thats really helpful, thank you. I will have a play around in that folder and see what I can find.
Thanks again
Brezzz
find it?

so did you find the file to change the audio volume?
I am really interested for this, cause I have really low in call volume, even all is maxed. If someone can find string to modify for a little better in call volume I would be eternaly grateful
This file and mixer_volumes_GRACE_xxxxxxx depending on you variant. If you provide me those files from your device i will try to help you increase the in call volume. I've already bumped up the headphone volume, that's why I'm sure these are the configuration files.

Dear erayrafet I really apreciate that offer and you have my thanks. In my folder etc/audio/hi6402 I have many mixer_volume_GRACE, GEMINI... I have L09 variant of P8. Could you specify which file beside mixer_volume _default you need?

I don't know about in call volume. You have to find sections with "call" and increase the values of those strings whose values aren't zero.

Finding Mixer_path.xml in latest MIUI

So after some water damage my loudspeaker can't produce loud sound,it starts to crackle above 75% of volume.
So I want to permanently lower the volume which is usually done by modifying mixer_path.xml values.
But in latest MIUI 8.5.24 I can't find anything like mixer_path in /system/etc
So where can I find it?
if it's not there,is there any way to permanently lower the loudspeaker volume of the device?
The file you want to edit is mixer_paths_tasha.xml ...
This is the file that holds the configurations for volumes...

Yes I searched for that too.
But anything starting with "mixer_path" doesn't exist in /system/etc folder in MIUI 8.5.24
Though it was present in AEX.

ONLY FOR THE NOTE 9. ROOT ONLY
Additionally i have some custom Spen sounds. see the post 1 for more info on that! now without further hesitation.
YOU CAN FLASH THESE VIA TWRP OR YOU CAN MANUALLY INSTALL VIA VENDOR/ETC/ REPLACE THE GAINS AND SUCH AS IT SHOWS AND MAKE EVERYTHING YOU REPLACE RW-R-R OR 0644
View attachment 4615416
View attachment OREO_MAGISK_S9_S9+_DualSpeaker.zip
View attachment OREO_TWRP_S9_S9+_DualSpeaker.zip
Follow instructions as described and you will have success.
#1 download
#2 flash via magisk twrp or manual install

TO INSTALL THE SPEN SOUNDS READ READ READ THE INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED!
Donations are not needed but are welcomed and help keep me going. i do this as a hobby and would like to make a job of it someday if able.
THIS IS FOR ROOT ONLY AND ONLY FOR THE EXYNOS VERSION OF THE NOTE 9. THE 9600 VERSION COULD WORK BUT I DO NOT OWN ONE TO TEST.

exactly. i made the thread because i am tired of having to search n search for stuff id want and require on my devices and more often than not, coming up empty handed so i made a thread for those who are like me in that regard. yes the xml fiels i have listed are for the s9. yes they work for thre note 9 and note 8 and pretty much any device running oreo. however, the spen stuff is pretty unfamiliar and thought id share since not even the note 8 threads make mention of it. your welcome

@this.guy.lol Is the manual installation and magisk installation any different? I think the magisk installation only gives you louder speakers but the manual installation also gives you louder headphone volume.. I could be wrong though
