How to boost the speaker volume with mixer path edit - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Been looking to boost the loundspeaker such as it is found some guides about editting lines in mixer_path.xml, only thing is my file does not have the values that the guides have which is why I asking the question, anybody know how to boost the volume of the loudspeaker ? I know the risks about blowing the speaker so did not want to just add the lines that I found, any advice or an app that is known to boost the loudspeaker ? Thanks in advance

Nobody knows? Or is everyone happy with the loudspeaker volume?
Have tried a few volume boost apps but they don't cut the mustard

I know you can use Kodi for video and audio files and it has an option to boost volume. You can even get a youtube plugin for those of you like. As for app and games no idea.

Custom quality and generic apps.

Hi, if I may, the answer to a louder sound from built-in speaker, as my colleagues have posted can be achieved by Volume Booster, from omega Centauri, a gemini from an reader app they make. Note that to avoid damage it only boost mid frequencies, avoiding bass and high treble. The quality lowers. So, kernels like Perseus, Devil, Shift, I could name the majority, have customized the approach with algorithms that have names like Boeffla, Faux and many others important, that are drivers lile ALSA for Linux or kernel mode WDM for W. And now try a Note 2 N 7100/7105 with and without Boeffla and all will become clear, specially the effort of developers that we admire. Congrats. :fingers-crossed: sorry for the bad english included.

Thanks all for the suggestions,none of them give me a boost that makes it louder through the speaker, , I also forgot that you can boost the system volume with Viper4Android(which boosts the speaker volume fine on my other device a oneplusone), this also does not work on the Nexus 7,I will have to just live with the low speaker volume as I cannot get it any louder

[Q] Increase volume, sound level on Wildfire (headphones)?

Hi,
I'm a 50+ old punk/new wave musician and rock fan. I don't have any greater hearing problems, but the sound level, playing media files from whatever source, with my (wired) headphones on my HTC Wildfire is TOO LOW. Especially when I'm in the underground/metro, or in other places with a quite normal to loud background noise.
I think there ought to be at way or possibility to increase the sound volume permanently, after my own standards and requests, without having to root the phone or buy software.
I found some hints in this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884188, but that is only supposed to work until you restart the phone, then you have to do it again. I haven't tried this on my Wildfire yet, since I'm not sure how well it turns out.
Any ideas, solutions or best shots, anybody?
Best wishes,
Goran, Stockholm (otherwise quite satisfied with my Wildfire)
Search for dsp manager. Not sure it works for stock/sense but we have it on cm7 and works a treat.
Hope this helps

Try getting some noise isolating earphones/headphones. A good quality pair will make so much more difference.
Thanks for the suggestion, f0xy, but it seems like I have too root the phone and I'm already messing enough with my computers, so I've at least had the intention not to mess with my Wildfire as well... ;-)
There is an app on the market called volume boost that is supposed to increase the volume level on wildfire headphones.
I think the volume on the phone itself is way too low. When playing videos etc i find i'm constantly putting my hand behind the phone speakers to deflect the sound to my ears. I think there is a health and safety regulation being enforced to deliberately lower the volume levels on phones. I read that somewhere concerning Sony Ericsson walkman phones. There was a way to extract the file from the phone, modify it on pc and restore the modded file. Not sure if the same sort of thing is possible on htc phones.
poweramp for example has an equalizer that allows you to boost treble, midd and bass, so making the sound louder overall... But there may be better solutions
This works for me: http://www.appbrain.com/app/volume-boost/com.kiboweb.android.desiresoundunlock
Thanks, I'll check it out.

Low Volume

Any hacks or tips for increasing volume? I have tried disabling the Dolby settings and it does sound a little louder but not much. I was not expecting great sound from the onboard speakers, but the headphones are very low. Any suggestions ? Thanks in advance !
my guess your original video sound is low. i don't have a better way. sometimes when i convert some videos with my converter, there is a setting to increase the video sound. i don't know whether you have the same experience.
Hi, Ruteral
i really has the same experience with you, it solve the volume problem, but there is something wrong on the video,it is printed on a logo, i just try a free version of foxreal's video tool. maybe this is their safeguard to make us buying.
which tool do you use? does it a free one?

Music Speaker Volume

Hi all
I would like to know if some software can make the speaker more louder or maybe some manipulations in advanced system setting.
Thanks
P.S:forgive me for my bad english
PowerAmp has an equalizer preset made just for phone speakers. It gives some punch. I don't know of any modification on the system that increases the volume, and I advice you to not mess with it =P
Rocking with my M2 and XDA app
Arff,i already have PowerAMP with this preset but the sound is not much louder with it.
The alarm volume dont wake up me compare to my old n95
Thanks to you
If someone have any idea for increase volume,let me know
There are some apps, but saddly doesnt work with milestone 2, louder volume hack and Volume+, i dont know if there is an app that works with our m2, or some kind of hack. I really need this, the speaker volume is very low :S

What Audio Mods are you using???

Hello folks, wanted to see what the community has tested as far as what audio mods are working on the LG G3 and your review on said audio mods. I appreciate the feedback.
I have the one where you edit the text file to make it louder and also I use viper4android. Very loud and sounds very good for a phone.
Is there anything potentially useful for someone who listens to music through headphones instead of using the phone speaker?

System/etc/audio then search for mixer there will pop up 15 files one of them is it... unfortunately i don't know which of them because I'm not tried it on this phone...
(If you find which it is and edit dont forget to restart afterwards otherwise it won't work)
I suggest getting Viper4Android installed if you can.
It includes a Xtra Loud option that boosts the volume.

This is also possible with Viper.
For example by activating certain Convolvers. You can find suitable ones here on XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216193).
Just remember to activate Expert UI settings in Viper to display all the options.
