Please Help - Galaxy S8 volume when talking on the phone - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello, I'm a little hard of hearing and have a phone call always difficult to understand the other party. Even the highest volume setting is still too low.
I read that you could increase the volume in the files mixer_gains.xml and / or mixer_paths.xml.
Unfortunately, I find no evidence of what changes I must make in the files exactly, so that the volume is raised when talking on the phone.
Can someone explain to me which lines I have to adapt?
If desired, I like to upload the two files here for viewing.
And sorry for my english, is translated with google.

After upgrading to WM6 the ringtone volume is too low

Hi,
Under 2003SE the ringtone was loud enough for me.
After installing WM6, the ringtone, when setup for the loudest possible, is still barely hearable.
Is there any fix for it?
Thanks,
vma
You might wanna check the forum first before you post several requests for this already, believe the best answer is put in

Greetings...
Thanks for the link.
I did obviously do a search, however I thought it was a BA/WM6 specific problem, so I did not search the other sections.
Will try this out this evening.
Cheers,
vma
EDIT: I read all 20 pages, but did not get a valid clue, which registry setting to change in order to increase the ring tone on a BA. Also, I don't seem to be the only victim of this annoyance.
Why do some people have this issues, while others don't? Flashing the complete WM6 ROM should reset everything - right?

Volume Fade-In

I've been asking around on the MoDaCo forum to see if anyone has found a potential "fix" for the fade in on sound. I was hoping someone around on these forums may know of a way to get rid of the fade-in, or shorten it perhaps. not being an expert in how the audio stack on android devices work, I don't know if it would be as simple as changing a hidden settings file, or if it's at driver/kernel level.
ยป Post on MoDaCo in case anyone's interested...
Its most annoying, as by the time the fade-in has occurred, the notification tone may have finished, so you don't hear it. I hope it can be corrected by someone at some point...
Hi,
You're absolutely right. I was used to symbian calendar notifications, that were SOOOO PERSISTENT: no way to pass unnoticed
Now i hear the sms or calendar sounds 1 out of 5 times.
For the rest, i love this phone.
Bye

Volume Buttons

Is there anyway to use volume buttons for change the song when the phone locked.
I think the old SE walkman phone users get the situation.
By the way: English is my second language, so it's not very good. If i made a mistake please tell me.
Anyone?...
any reg edit? i did a quick search found nothin....
Can you open a threat in software development?
this would be great but i doubt a reg edit would do it. probably have to be software but ive never heard of any....
hope you find something though as it would be great not to have to unlock the phone just just skip a track
I opened a threat in software development. There is 94 wiews but no comment. :/
Can you up the thread

It would help if you would post a link to where these mods are available. Other than the volume boost I did not find the other mods and hence I created this thread.
While you're at it.. I need to have a working CM on my phone by Friday. So hurry up.
Thanks guys for your requests. I will look into these ( I am very busy with school ) CM will be the quickest IMO. This is also the incorrect place to put this thread

There is a thread in the themes/apps section on how to do it. Go to system/etc and edit mixer_paths.xml
Thank you sir, but I've been searching since yesterday in this thread and I've found nothing, or maybe I didn't understood that well..; Can you tell me the name of the concerned thread, or maybe can you copy/paste the link here ? thanks a lot.

Thank you for the thread. I've tried it, but since I've replaced the file, 'SoundAlive' stops working, and all things using sounds (mp3 player, notifications) doesn't work anymore.
Edit : My bad, I forgot to change permissions, I think that's ok now, I'll try it when I'll finish my workday, thank you anyway !
So... It figures that for the sound, it works really fine, but when I call someone, this one can hear me, but I can't hear nothing, I've tried multiple combinaison of permission on the file, but it's still the same thing... Any ideas ?
