Running 4.2.1 wanam lite ROM

used the app once and it appeared to work, rebooted and ran the app to double check the values, they had reverted to default. Rebooted again and now the app force closes when i pick an option.

Changed the "speaker" value manually via notepad++ and pasted the file into the system folder. Rebooted the value is what I set it at. Had a go at playing a video which was really quiet (the reason i sought out this hack), and its exactly the same. What am i doing wrong?

Info:

Galaxy S3 - I9000 (UK)

ROM: WanamLite 4.2.1 based on samsung stock ROM

using mx player to play the file in question, tried both hardware and software decoding options.

its an mkv file.

At the moment it looks like im going to have to re-encode the audio in the file to a higher level rather than using this hack/mod.

Any help in avoiding this (as i would have to do it for several other files as well) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

My friend has the galaxy s3 4g but it isn't working. I have flashed it, copied the file directly from my phone onto his phone but still won't work. Why? I open the file in his phone and all the settings are same as mine but it won'twork.

Help needed

Hi all, i have gs3 on 4.1.2 xxella and have tried flashing the 63 mod audio hack, yes my phone is rooted ok but the flash keeps failing to install, any help please without me having to manually do it,

Thanks and hope to hear soon from Brian
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eozen81:
Do you have stock ROM or any custom ROM on your SGS 3?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] readbmr:
thankyou

hiya i have stock jellybean rom 4.1.2 but phone is rooted, so do i need a diferent rom ie omega or something? thx
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eozen81:
I would expect it to work for stock rom as well. But to make sure, maybe you can backup your own ROM then try another custom ROM with flashing "volume hack" (I recommended 60_mods).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gnuig:
I'm using the 60_mods version on wanam.lite stock 4.1.2 rom... no issues on my Galaxy S3...

Many thanks, has increased volume overall, but especially conversation volume has always been too low - I think - on stock sgs3.

So I'm loving it... Cheers...

:good:

Frozen Handset

Hi,

Is this hack not compatible with Omega 44.2?

I run the hack and it works, but if I flash the file to bring camera sounds back it freezes the phone!

Has anyone else had this problem and is there a fix?

Not working for AD2P

Hello Guys,

I have finally purchased my S3 to replace my S1 that was a "little" old-fashioned and as I often use my phone to listen to music via Bluetooth in my car, the first thing that I noticed in the phone was a much lower AD2P volume compared to my old S1 and after searching a I found this topic.

Well, my phone was brand new, so I had to root it and after that I applied the Volume Hack successfully.

The volume hack really worked for the speakers, wired headphone and even for the calls over Bluetooth but not for media over Bluetooth (AD2P)! Searching a little more I found some comments about the Volume+ app. Also tried that but any volume higher then 0 in the Volume Boost for the bluetooth distorts the sound, the quality gets awful and the volume increase is insignificant.

I have tried to pair the same phone with another Bluetooth audio device and for my surprise the volume was normal and exactly the same as my old S1!!!!

Considering that in my car stereo there isn't any advanced setting to change (like input gain, or something like that), is there something else I could try to increase the volume?

BR,

Cesar
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eozen81:
Good point, I rarely used Bluetooth (AD2P) thus I do not know but considering car audio system I agree that this is important but I believe it's not something this audio hack can help with.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nonstopnate:
Thank you Meltus

I love you!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] marvi0:
Thanks for this, I enjoy your insane tweets lol, now back to this awesome mod, from you as always, all we have to do, to increase volume, is move default_gain config to etc, and do we have to do anything else, cause in your opening post, you mentioned use of a text editor, so just wondering what we need text editor for, if all we doing is just copying the default config to etc, thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nl2008:
When i do killall mediaserver, its not working and display " can't kill pid 2029: operation not permitted"....what's the problems here?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Meltus:
Haha, Thanks! :D

The modifying instructions are just there in case you fancy changing the values. All you have to do is take the 'default_gain.conf', push it to system/etc and either reboot the mediaserver or reboot your phone :)

No idea, just reboot your phone instead :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jediknight111:
Just reboot the phone instead then mate
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RMXO:
Yes, I'm using Omega's AOKP & just move the two files in the zip to /system/etc as the OP instructed. If you have the volume full blast then I would suggest you take it all the way down & work your way up.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] irv777:
This is marvellous!!!.....now my SGS3 is loud!!!.......thanks for this......do u know if this will work for my other phone the HTC ONE X?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gilg@mesh:
nice, but I edited the values to 60, still loud but cleaner sound imo :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] blu3angel:
Which values do i need to change bro? Just having a headache by just seeing all the values the at the default_gain file.. :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] katsuru:
I can confirm the volume MOD is working on AOKP roms.

:)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jsbutran:
Can you share your gain.conf file please. I changed all values of 63 where ever it appeared to 60. Is this the right way.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] irv777:
I think so.....well that's what I did and it seemed to work....63 seemed to be distorted when the volumes are all the way up.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gilg@mesh:
here is my config (winrar file)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GadgetCheck:
Loud it is..

But Distorts stuff!!

Any ways if you want to Flashey Flashey use the file below... flash via CWM :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Meltus:
Cheers man, I'll add this to the first post :)

And yeah, I set the volume literally as high as I could make it go as sort of a proof-of-concept, just change any instance of 63 to something lower. There should also be 2 '100' values above it which are usually set at 94 (I think), you might want to lower these values too!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] maranello69:
would be great if someone could make a small app to modify those volume settings straight from it :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Meltus:
Give me a few days :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] maranello69:
you got it man :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DirkStorck:
Hi the settings are almost to loud for me. If I only want the car kit to be louder do I only have to change the entries corresponding to "car kit".

Thanks :-)

Send from my Omega ROM powered SGS3 :-)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Meltus:
I think so, yeah.

I've not been able to test all the different settings (there's loads of them!) but they do seem pretty specific. It's weird (but kind of cool) that they separated everything so you can have different volumes for headset music, headset in call, headset ring tone, etc. :)

EDIT: How's everyone finding the in-call volume now? I've found speakerphone volume seems pretty good but earpiece volume is VERY loud!! You may want to lower it before applying the mod.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gilg@mesh:
Bluetooth volume also increased big time :-)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cdzo72:
I was the Volume+ app and just for the heck of it I decided to uninstall it and push this file to the /system/etc/ folder. Running XXEMC2 Neat ROM Lite and without the Volume+ app installed and the default_gain-conf file I can hear no change in stock volume in any way, from speaker, earpiece, headset or bluetooth... If I reinstall the Volume+ app then once again I have a CONSIDERABLE boost in volume everywhere... am I doing somethign wrong. I didn't modify the default_gain.conf file, I pushed it to the /system/etc/ folder as is...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] philhouse:
Same question. Does anyone know where the default_gain.conf file is for the SGH-i747? I have searched through my whole phone and cannot find it.

This is my one gripe about my S3 and being able to fix it would give me the perfect phone. Thank you to anyone that can help!!!

Slim bean

Its currently working great on my stock XXELLA Rom, will it work on the latest slim bean rom? i am about to switch to it but i cant live without the audio hack now, please advice
[Galaxy S III Android Development] igresso:
The problem that some of ppl are facing [me 2] .. are that the kernals are controlling the volume in the device .. so even if u do that hack it wont change anything ..

So what to do?

.I figure out that in my device (s3 lte with perssuse kernal) ..

1- U have to disable the stweaks volume control .. by going to STweaks --> audio then uncheck eqeulizer and every other things inside ..(uncheck)

2- after u replace the file u should make the permissions

(Rw+r+r+)

Try it .. it worked for me ..

Do the corresponding disable settings need to be set to the same value as the enabled? I ask because still no speakerphone sound. May need to do a clean install of the ROM and see if it was borked somewhere else.

Does Nothing on VRBMF1

Hi, just installed 4.1.2 rom Verizon stock VRBMF1 over VRBMB1 and SpeakerBoost, a little program I was using to make the S3's speakers hearable, stopped working. So I searched and found this hack.
