Finding Mixer_path.xml in latest MIUI - Xiaomi Mi Note 2 Questions & Answers

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.

[Q] Audio hack increase?

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

Can someone with A2017U nougat check something for me?

Hi!
Could someone with the A2017U Firmware/Rom go into System -> etc -> mixer_paths.xml -> search for: path name="headphone" -> look below that for a line named: ctl name="HP Out Volume" value="19" -> check what value (19 on my example) you have.
I would appreciate this as I would like to know the value because my device has a value of 19 and the volume is still very low.
20 is the maximum. Use different headphones or do a clean install and re check it. The audio has been increased on A2017G Roms to same as U roms. Its either a problem with your headphones or your software needs a reflash.
Can someone on A2017G Nougat please send me their mixer_paths.xml file uneditted please thank you

I will send you the file in 3 hours.
Can you explain how I should reflash since my last reflash didn't solve it.
Get the full rom image and install it again it either from recovery or update menu settings. should set the volume to the default ones for Nougat.

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.

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.
