Call Volume too loud / not adjustable on Lineage 16 (OP2) - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I did a fresh install of the latest Lineage 16 on my one plus 2. Everything's fine besides the call volume is way too loud and putting volume up and down has no effect at all. I've tried setting RX1-8 Digital Volume in /vendor/etc/mixer_path.xml from 84 to but this also had no effect. I wonder since I never read that the adjusting the volume doesn't work at all. On Lineage 15.1 everything was fine.
Does anybody have an idea?

CyanogenMod 12.1 audio?

So i just flashed a CM 12.1 nightly via TWRP .... All running fine and smooth but the audio seems really low compared to the CloudyG2 3.3 ROM i just came from, Is this normal? Also is there a way to increase the volume?
Thanks.
This is a known issue. Solution:

scroll down to the CM12.1 volume booster.
Wow thank you, that worked!
Well flashed the 75 version and its really loud, Down side is on full volume its a little distorted. Tried the 68 one but after boot had no volume at all, Flashed back to 75 and volume is back, Ive just manually turned all the volume down slightly, Still very loud and no distortion. Thanks again.

Volume level doesn't change (LineageOS 14.1)

I’m facing a strange and annoying problem on my Xperia X compact with LineageOS 14.1 / Android 7.1.1… During phone calls the volume is too loud even on minimum volume level. When I decrease the volume with the volumebuttons I see that it should lower the volume, but the volume remains the same. In other words, it doesn’t matter to adjust the volume level. It’s the case for both normal phone calls and also when I switch to speaker during a call.
It looks like the volumelevel for minimum and maximum are the same.
I’ve been searching in mixer_paths.xml (yes, I’ve rooted my phone), but there is too much info and I can’t find the right setting. Does anyone know what I should change, that there will be a difference between minimum and maximum volume level?
In build.prop I’ve added a command to add more steps to the volume slider. Now I’ve 14 steps in case of 6, but the minimum and maximum volume level are still the same so the steps doesn’t take any effect.
Other volume settings are ok btw.
Yes, right now it seems not to be possible to change the volume during phone calls which is very annoying. All you can currently do is setting the phone call volume in advance. Maybe one can have a look at OmniRom's settings (which have weekly builds but the terrible Google launcher and no built-in root) to work this out.

Unlink bluetooth volume on nougat

Hi there
I recently tried flashing noguat (ressurection remix) and I love it, it feels a lot smoother and faster but a included feature for nougat is bothering me
When I connected my phone to my bluetooth speaker on marshmellow (h2os) I was able to turn the volume up and down separately on both the phone and on the speaker but now they share the same volume level so if I turn the volume up on the phone I can see the speaker also turns up the volume.
This is a problem for me since android dosen't have enough volume steps so when I listen to very low volume music it's now either too low or too high since I can't fine tune the volume on the speaker
So my question is: Can i somehow unlink the bluetooth volume? Or maybe add more steps to the bluetooth volume?
TL;DR: On Nougat the bluetooth volume is linked, can I somehow unlink it so it's like it was on marshmellow (h2os)
Thanks

A2017G Audio Bug in every ROM - lowest ringtone very loud

Hey guys, I don't have a clue what went wrong.
for me the lowest alarm, ringtone and notification sounds are way to loud. its like almost full volume...lowest ringtone setting is as loud as 80% of media volume. Media volume is very silent at the lowest setting as I like.
I unlocked bootloader and then pushed TWRP 3.1.1.0 to my device.
format data, wipe system, data, cache and dalvik, factory reset
After that I flashed the following files:
1. flash universal nougat bootloader
2. flash a2017g_n_modem
3. flash rom
4. flash gapps aroma
is this correct?
I tried lineageos official, ResurrectionRom official and unofficial, xenon hd.... Everytime the same bug.
Please help me
Anyone?
One guy posted that he has the same issue.

I would agree. Compared with my other phones also running LineageOS), notifications on the lowest volume level are still way too loud. I did have a search for this but didn't find anything about it being considered a problem (but I only searched key words and didn't read all 100+ pages). If there were a way to make the lowest notification volume lower, it would be fantastic.
Edited to add: Just tested side by side. Moto X Pure vs Axon 7: both running LineageOS from 22 May. Volume level set to 14% on both (lowest before going to vibrate only more). Playing the same ring tone (same sound file). S4 running a sound meter app.
Moto X: 29dB
Axon 7: 45dB
To get a similar profile on the sound meter app for notification levels, I need to raise the Moto X up to about 70% volume to compare with the readings from the Axon on 14%.

is there any workaround to fix it? i tried to change volume steps to 60 but lowest volume is still very loud on ringtones, for media its working out of the box. thats so annoying..
i even tried AICP, lineageos, resurrection rom official and unofficial and all of them have the same bug.

have you tried flashing the stereo fix? it should supposedly be already merged in LOS, but why not...

worth trying i guess
as a workaround for the ringtone I guess you could get the sound file and lower its volume

US996 - Reduce call volume on LineageOS 18.1

I'm sorry if this has already been answered before, but I am wondering if anyone is also experiencing the call volume being too loud on LineageOS 18.1 (or any other version), and not being able to lower it when the volume meter shows it is at the bottom.
It's been annoying that I can't have more fine tuned control over my call volume, and I'm wondering if I can change this? I have my phone rooted with Magisk, so it is possible to install Xposed modules. I previously tried a GravityBox patch, but that did not fix it up at all.
Any ideas of what I can do here?
It's the first time I come across someone reporting loud in-call volume. Since you're rooted, reduce handset gains found in:
/system/vendor/etc/mixer_paths_*.xml
If it was 80, lower it by an even number until yousatisfy. Decreasing/Increasing should not exceed 10.
