I normally have no patience for sedans in traffic tbh lol

Philippines traffic can get as crazy sometimes and you could land in about 2hrs wait on a supposed 15 min drive home. Mom's giving me the hint to get a car. And if that doesn't make it worse my recent group of friends consist of 6 girls, and I'm the only guy. I'm not sure what happened but I checked and I have my mojos intact. Probably aiming for a Honda CBR at the end of my final year but i love my current bike and owning a CBR in a 50 zone is like a wheelchair on NOS. I know it's unfair but I like how most of the road rules don't apply to bikes and you can just dodge and swerve in traffic.

PS you should trick out your rims bro! A nice 17" toothpaste white would go good on it along with some halogens and side skirts. A nice twin turbo exhaust and a carbon fiber hood with white body striped decals. :D

And the irony of being a bike guy LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Haha sounds like your quite the 'playah' these days with all dem gal lol ;) I never had a group of mates like that but would have been cool. I know where your coming from about doing what you like on bikes and cutting through jams and stuff, 10 years ago I had a 50cc ped and tuned it up, did a 70cc engine, exhaust, neons all sorts of **** lol Was fun back then until I seized the engine! With my car though I spent £719 on it so I'll just leave it as it is, no point with body kits and carbon fibre when all that would cost more than the car its self. I was looking at super chipping it but again its like £300-400 which is half the value of the car. Performance isn't a problem anyway its fast, 180bhp with 6 gears it pulls like a train and when new 0-60 was 7 seconds with 140 odd top end. I might upgrade the speakers some day but that's it, my next car will be more modern.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] victor2868:
Is this mod compatible with MIUI?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mkuehl06:
I actually run a touchwiz themed cm10.1 for toroplus. The dev said he has plans to upgrade it to 4.2 then 4.3 but not sure if and when it will happen. 4.1 has given me the best battery life and stability out of it, 4.2.2, and 4.3 but I am missing this mod on it :/ lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
So just going back to this for a minute, iv just jumped on this xposed framework band wagon thing and thought of your comment here regarding the 30 step volume. Is this mod safer for our speakers using the mod as it is or is there some changes coming about to put less boost on higher volume steps and spread the volume boosting more evenly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pkt_Lnt:
It is like this;

With standard 7 step:

- - - - - - -

With 30 step

................................

Start (min) volume and end (max) volume are the same, you just get more steps, so each step is littler to fine tune the volume between min and max.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chikimonke:
FYI the latest version of that mod now let's you choose 15/30/45 steps for both media and call volume.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, but beta 0.5 45 steps will screw up my art work.......... :cyclops:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
I'm using an increased step mod through gravity box which is a 30 step one. I know it doesn't make the over all volume louder just easier to find the right level you want. I'm not quite certain my question was fully understood. Misledz said most of the boost is put over the last 3 steps in volume, I was wondering if he's going to stay with that set up or make his mod not have so much emphasis on the high end of the volume scale? Ie; more tuned toward 30 steps where there's more steps so boosting is evened out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] goast:
Sorry if this is somewhere I don't see...I see there is a build 9 in change log but not to download for 4.3 am I missing something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes you are, the fact that he changed the name from 9 to final, so the download IS 9 with a different name. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Erockk:
Installed latest v8b1 over newest slim bean 4.3 stable, clean install.. At first had an issue with a very annoying echo and music skip and crackle issue.. Deleted the dolby.apk that is included in the patch, not sure what its purpose is, but it solved the echo issue.. but i have yet to figure out why my music is still skipping and popping, tried several diff kernels, fancy kernel bigmem worked the best, reduced the skipping but still there.. tried a plethora of different kernel settings, nothin.. using google music too, nothin fancy.. could be a rom issue,not sure, since the music effects tab is busted, just fc's when selected, just have to go into google music settings and select your default equalizer.... anyone else havin issues? esp with slim bean? reverted and everything is good, no popping or nothing..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pkt_Lnt:
Check your kernel tcp congestion setting. Cubic will do that, westwood is best if you have it, reno is ok, anything but cubic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ToMeRv32:
Xvolume30?

Does eizo, dolby and musicfx work together? Can I uninstall 2 of them?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
Basically the 30 step volume mod
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
Just got home, time to test with the newer versions (Massive thanks to Alastor89!)

Does the Nexus 7 have bad audio output too? I assume it should work. But do me a favor and send me the audio conf file for the Nexus 7 and we can work something out. Last thing we need is having no audio on it hahaha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yojlik:
Well I installed Franco's kernel and your patch and I cannot hear a difference, at least in the external speaker volume which is the only thing I care about (headphones, bluetooth, and in-call volume have always been fine to me). Either I don't know how to activate it or it's not doing anything, which is why I was asking the questions I did.

In Sound > Settings > Music Effects, DSP Manager is selected to control them.

You say not to change the options in DSP Manager and as far as I can tell using them causes things to not work (Bass Boost decreases bass in the headphones at least). I'm assuming if I don't want the sound to be flat, then I don't have a choice.

I've rebooted several times and I've used Franco's volume boost (which I understand only affects headphone levels). You say I just need to reboot after boosting the volume, but the all of the phone's volume levels are at maximum and yet ringtones and notifications are not changed, or not changed significantly, over stock. I must be doing something wrong but I'm unclear what more I can do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
Well this affects both the internal (headphones) AND the external. You don't really need to do anything in settings to Activate it, more or less after you install it, it automatically does the job for you, Just need to crank up your volume all the way, and let someone call you to test it, I've mentioned it numerous times that Settings has a safety limit to how much it can output, Last thing Google needs is letting people's battery get drained over which ringtone sounds smashing. :good:

I'm on stock and so are majority of the people, and they've said the same thing. *you don't really need to select DSP, You can choose MusicFX and it does the job, beta4 fixes the DSP issue which is being tested with the XLouder mods* Perhaps you already have something to boost your volume which is why you can't tell the difference. VolumeBooster+, AlsaMixer or what. Those are all "software" based mods that do just about something similar.

And no, DSP Settings practically don't work because of the lack of Jellybean support. But Alastor & osmosis has guided me to where DSP has been spotted working with JB and would probably use that. So your bass never changed basically. I own Razer Electa headphones and the bass is just as insane, if there was any possible way to show the difference, I would. Sadly you need some sort of expensive mixer or visualizer to do that or jack the phone into your PC's "Line-In". I feel I'm required to do that so people can ACTUALLY tell there's a difference rather than the standard "Nothing's happening".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yojlik:
Thanks. Actually I just reverted back to stock and you're right, there is a substantial difference in volume in the speaker. (Obviously the difference in the headphones was obvious even initially.)

I use Klipsch s4's and the sound is good enough even stock for me.

I'm debating going through the rigamarole of resetting it back up once you post your next beta and people say it works well. You say you're "on stock" but when you say that you mean you're on stock but are running a custom kernel, right? It seemed like your last post you were telling me that I couldn't just use the one that came with bigxie's stock, rooted, deodexed JCO03E, I had to use Franco or Trinity.

Thanks for the clarification, I really do appreciate the work you're doing. I'm just having a newbie moment :p

Edit: Oh yeah, forgot to mention, I was testing with a phone call and you say I don't need to choose DSP, but I do have to leave it installed, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
You can remove DSP if you wish and Apollo, I just included those because it's just one of those light bundle packs I thought I should throw in :P The main core is the audio files which do just about the right job ;)

I apologize if I wasn't clear previously but yes, Stock ROM but Custom kernel :P Can't flash zip's on a stock kernel. The first time I read your post you mentioned stock kernel and I was like, WHUT!? o_o

I'm currently in the point where people love the loudness, but ofcourse it can go higher, but some say it's too loud..I think I've been in clubs way too much my ears can't tell what's loud anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yojlik:
Last stupid question and I PROMISE to stop bothering you ;)

You said you can't flash zips on a stock kernel but everything seems to flash just fine. I mean I'm rooted so I can change things in /system, bigxie's has an insecure boot.img which I understand to mean that I can do whatever. I know some kernels have hooks for things that the stock kernel doesn't (I'm most familiar with Voodoo kernels on the Nexus S which my wife has) and I understand if Franco or Trinity is needed for that, but I've never heard of not being able to flash zips.

Am I misunderstanding some terminology? I've been doing this stuff since the Nexus One so I'd like to think I'm fairly familiar but I've been wrong plenty of times before. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
It isn't stupid questions when it's a dev forum :P Not everything is ready like a manual, but yeah most of the questions's are already answered. Kinda like a woman's desperation blog.

Oh it's able to flash zips that's for sure. But only update.zip and those must be Google signed files. It's a crazy process that involves editing java files just to get your file to flash. PLUS, stock kernel's don't have busybox support. So it won't be able to write to /system sectors which normally need root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yojlik:
Gotcha. I've got busybox (installed by Titanium) and I can flash unsigned zips (using CWR 6.0.1.1) and I'm pretty sure I have write access across all of /system (edited /etc/bluetooth/main.conf just today to correct a bluetooth issue). I have applied UI changes without issue.

If this mod just adds a lib or two it sure seems to me that I should be able to just flash the script and it *should* work unless there's something I'm just overlooking.

Thanks for your help and attention though, I'm very interested in learning and I think I've got a better handle on what can and should be done. The mods I've done already preclude flashing OTAs anyway so no harm in switching to Franco but given that I'm satisfied with things as they are I'm wary of flashing things just to make things "faster" without a real, tangible benefit. I'll wait for your next release but given what you've said just flashing the mod and the kernel should be enough to get me what I need.

Thanks again :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Bad, yes. Quiet? Not really the issue. The N7 speakers distort and rumble very easily at stock max volume, especially playing certain frequencies. Since it's really just a case of ****ty speakers, a volume boost patch would likely only make things worse. :(

As for the loudness, I believe it's perfect at where it is, Not too loud and not too strong. Just the right amount to enjoy music if ever you feel pumped up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
Apologize for the double post. Lame net rubberbanding.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samthe2can:
It's so good I'm thanking the double post too :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
LOL! I was thinking what I should have added to the double post. Felt an ASCII mushroom would have been good.

Edit:

On another note, I was never able to upload this with the horrible net, so I apologize for the delay. I have used the latest build for 3 days (V4Beta1) and I have not experienced a single problem.

A few files had to be tweaked here and there, added a few lines here and there aswell. More of a mix mix, twirl, mix.

If you face any problems please report them as soon as possible :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] masterchif92:
finally man!!!testing now!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Savant:
I should be able to flash over the old one without any ill affects?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Freaking sweet! To test out the latency you just need to get Caustic 2 from the Play Store and go to the settings page, it shows latency along the bottom. With the latency patch alone it shows 18, I'll report back on the new louder+lowlat in a bit. :)

Does the revert to stock still work for V4? I don't like flashing over system files unless I've got a simple return path in place; has saved me from hassling with nandroids on many occasions!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Savant:
DSP manager force closes and that's the only problem I have so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shuvo_bd:
Music effect tab under setting gives fc on latest Slimbean because there is no MusicFX.apk installed in the latest built. if u want to solve fc issue then just manually install MusicFX.apk and make it system app. Best way is copying MusicFX.apk from any existing rom and then paste it in System/app folder and then set permission to rw-r-r. After rebooting ur phone there should not be any fc. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Honestly.. I feel like I'm reading a lot of issues with Slimbean lately. Over in the Xposed thread for awhile, over in the f.K thread, now here.

Hi Misledz, can you check the compatibilty with newest PA (21)? I got bootloops. Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Erockk:
Thanks, didnt realize musicfx was tied to that, fixed the fc problem.. And as for the skipping, tcp setting has no effect, even on westwood.. Must be a slim issue on my phone, ill try another rom and see..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ptmax13:
OK, don't shoot me guys, it's a big thread and I'm just looking for clarification.

I just need this mod for the louder ringtone/phone speaker. What is the absolute minimum of this mod for my needs?

If I absolutely need eizo, I've got to say it's a real pain. From the buggy notification thing being always on to the real labyrinth of its settings, 95% of which I have no clue what they are and do. Is there any alternative? And if not, is there a noob guide or something?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sajty:
If you want only want to increase sound volume, you dont need eizo.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Jesco-:
you can remove all apps from the zip and still have volume boost afaik
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
I'm not sure if it's not a proper port or its something that gets generalized for all the devices that the rom gets made on. In the N4 side alot of people are claiming the same thing. Which only leads me to conclude that the developer is using the kind of system files for all devices. Because as far as the commits go this was based on the stock followed by the CM build. Then again compliance are done, everything sorted and I'm back to my regular xda schedule.

The weirdest thing happened. I opened up the old phone and realized the speaker was mono all along. Same with the Nexus 4 but not the Nexus 7 2013. While checking the configuration files from stock, it shows that the output for the GNex is stereo. Has anyone else noticed that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chikimonke:
Just want to say, running the v8b1 final on my Toro with the latest available Slim ROM for a couple months now and I've had 0 issues with this mod.

But yeah I am so out of the loop right now, Need to sit down and find out about all the different versions. At this rate I might need to make a separate one for PA. But wow, JLS36G. I am so out of the loop. Didn't even know it was out!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lesp4ul:
I thought you missed my comment :D thanks bro Daft is so cool, haaha.. Ehm... please take a look man, i tried to survive without your mod right now :p

I tried 2 times with the same zip, downloaded again but not working for me. I am too lazy to clean install again right now. We'll wait for Misledz reply :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Misledz:
The CM or the regular one boss?

Brilliant, could you paste up the steps you used to get it to work? That would help alot of people :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitsua98:
1. Make a nandroid backup

2. Wipe system, dalvik cache, cache, and data

3. Flash:

a. Super wipe script

b. PA 3.99-RC2

c. pa-gapps 09-17

d. SuperSU 1.65

e. fancy kernel r43-big

f. NexusLouder V8B1 Final

4. Reboot

That's all I did. I know I have been having issues with this mod on CM, but with pa so far it's been fine.

Is there any other video player which support V8b1 mode and increase volume to 100%.

Yes it does work as long as your phone is rooted, don't forget to download the revert as well.

Good luck !

I get an error message every time I try to play audio.
