wont save changes....

I have completed this on my nexus 5, and am now trying on my N7. I get all the way done editing, but when I hot save, it gives an error.

Just to test, I tried making a change to another line of script, which worked fine.

I am 100% rooted and unlocked...even running setcpu.

In ES file explorer, it wont grant root permission, so I tried another app, that did grant access. But neither will allow a change to this line of code.

Any ideas?

Extract to sdcard, use a computer to edit and replace the file.

Moreover, isn't the Nexus 7 volume already loud enough by default?

After a few tests in my car it seems that raising the amp gain and lowering the digital gain gave me the best results.....much cleaner output.

Did you mount /system as r/w?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] znhel:
I did

Now I try and update the sound

thanks

EDIT...

tried,

but revealed no improvements or increase the power of the sound of the speakers

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] wantabe:
Looks to me like you are not properly mounting your system as r/w. I don't know what file manager that you are using but I swear everytime I hear of someone having that problem they are not using Root Explorer. Just saying! I know there are a lot of choices for file managers that work just fine for a lot of people but still! Anyway... I'm absolutely positive this mod works and there will be a noticeable difference in volume if done properly. I've used something similar on every Nexus device I've owned. You of course have to modify the correct lines and/or modify the permissions if replacing the file. I'm attaching a zip to my post that has the modified file (mixer_paths.xml) along with the original (mixer_paths.xml1) from a 2013 N7 running stock 4.4.2. Mount system as read/write, copy/paste, correct permissions, reboot, soft reboot will work. Enjoy!!!

PS. I would think about giving Root Explorer a try if you can't get the whole mount r/w thing figured out with whatever you're using now. ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] znhel:
I was able to change the permissions R / W with the app ES File Explorer and I modified the file "mixer_paths.xml." Now even without the app "Faux-sound" the volume of the device is much improved

thanks

I have this same issue now, mu Nexus 7 behaves like it doesnt even have audio components - whichever app I try, I get the "music playback error". Nonotification sounds, nothing.

How did you fixed this???
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] atirage:
Fixed it - coulndt set the permissions right, i guess.

Remember to set all 3 columns to r/w and owner:root, group:system.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sportscrazed2:
Works but sounds a little worse imo. But then again I'm using google music because 16gb isn't enough and i don't even really use it for music. Only use it occasionally for movies just need to remember default settings I guess. BTW default settings are 9 9 84 and 84 right? NVM how hard would it be to create a zip file to overwrite original and set it up to flash after the zip file in cyandelta updater? Oh and for the incredibly lazy here is a copy of my modified file. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3adcoki2jz5fz91/mixer_paths.xml still trying to figure out how to put it in a flashable zip. Do I just create a zip file with directory structure system/etc/mixer_paths.xml and have it flash after the nightly?

I dont have those settings to modify in my mixer_path.xml.

You can see attached my default mixer settings. Any ideas on how to modify them?

wow thanks so much!!

So much for Franco kernels mod, this made my n7 so loud!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sportscrazed2:
I'm assuming that the HP lines are for headphones?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xxxmadraxxx:
This worked a treat to fix the insipid headphone volume on my Nexus.

Previously, when turned up full, volume was just about acceptable with no EQ on, but was very flat and brassy. Whenever I turned on the EQ [in Google Play Music] I could get a better quality sound but the volume would drop by so much it was just too quiet to bother listening to.

After this mod [I went with the OP's recommended levels], I can now turn on EQ in Google Play Music, adjust it to taste and still have it loud enough to enjoy, with the volume only set at around halfway. No discernible distortion ether.

I'm well chuffed!

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanyG:
hi folks!

i'm looking to buy an xperia pro and i've got a bunch of questions about that.

basically i want to use the phone as my portable internet-gateway (usb tethering with my notebook) and portable media player for when i dont want to/cant carry the laptop with me. i also want a hardware keyboard since it makes writing texts and surfing the web on the road that much more enjoyable.

i will flash a custom firmware and tinker as much with the software side as needed.

- i'm coming from the motorola milestone - maybe someone else has made that change and has some insights to share?

- would you still buy this device or get/wait for another phone with hardware keyboard and hdmi?

- are there currently any unresolved issues? any functions not working in the prominent custom roms?

- is there anything i should be on the lookout concerning getting root-access or unlocking the bootloader? some needed and specific hardware revision or firmware version of the phone maybe?

- if so - can this be overcome somehow (preferably also easily)?

- are there any issues with the data connection? ie are there power-drain issues after data usage? connection instabilities or interrupts (while stationary and with good cell coverage)?

- can i use an otg-cable to connect an external soundcard to upmix stereo-audio to a connected 5.1 system?

- can i use an otg-cable to connect an usb stick or external (powered) harddrive?

- if i can access external media - can i use the hdmi port to play movies from the phone on a connected hdmi device?

- if i can access external media - how about multichannel sound over hdmi?

- if i can access external media - is the phone fast enough to play 720p/1080p [using 3rd party apps]?

- can i connect to standard windows/samba (media) shares and play those without some special streaming protocol (like i can with a nas+wlan+vlc on a laptop)?

- there doesn't seem to be a dedicated forum to the pro - does this mean all custom firmwares will run on all the xperias?

- if so - will there be problems with the hardware-keyboard? ie it not being detected, some dead keys ...?

thanks for reading so long a text :D

edit: hopefully corrected bad formatting

edit2: marked fully answered questions
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
It is possible.

Personally, I would wait, but do not get your hopes up, I am not sure, how popular are these phones nowadays.

It is actually quite an old device and Sony's support is very low on it.

As long as you stay on stock-based custom ROMs (GB and ICS only), you should not occur any issues (if the issues from stock ROM are fixed).

JB and all CM-based ROMs have issues, such as lack of HDMI connection....err there are more, I'm somewhat tired to write them all.

Root access can be acquired while on any ROM. However, the deal with the bootloader is a little more complicated.

All devices manufactured after 12W11 (11th week of 2012) have newer type of security, which completely disables test point method. All previously manufactured phones still have that possibility.

That leaves you with only the official bootloader unlocking method and that also only, if the phone has fastboot enabled (no SIM-lock, no branding). If fastboot is disabled...then you can not do much.

I have used Xperia Arc and Live with Walkman, never had any issues with data connection. There is no power-drain issues, just a slightly increased battery usage, if data is on, but that is normal on all phones.

Yes, Xperia Pro does have USB OTG possibility, you can connect a mouse, keyboard and external storages (HDD only via wall outlet or another USB power). These are confirmed to be working, however I do not know, if external soundcard would work.

Yes, HDMI port can be used to clone your phone's screen to a TV. That includes playing movies, games etc.

I believe there is multichannel sound, though I have not tested it myself. Phone can play 720p videos for sure, 1080p is unlikely, though may depend on the format (might require 3rd-party app).

You can use DLNA, that works over WiFi.

Xperia Pro uses the same forum as Xperia Arc, so all Pro-related stuff you can find in this same section.

And no, custom firmwares will only work on the phones they are made for.

Also, Xperia Pro is not very popular phone, finding a custom ROM may be a little time-consuming, though I believe you can find a good one for yourself.

The hardware keyboard may cause problems by different keyboard layouts. Though to find more information, you might want to try searching in this Q&A section.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanyG:
Thanks for taking the time to answer my many questions!

I'd like to follow up on some answers :)

I don't put stock in manufacturers anymore - communities will produce far superior results if given the chance. As far as I can see there is a wide selection of kernels and roms to choose from and still development going on. Am I mistaken about this?

So I can forget about using a custom rom and hdmi at the same time?

Kinda frightening to hear - there aren't that many phones available that meet my (seemingly harsh) criteria...

So I basically have to buy a factory-unlocked phone and thereby make sure I can unlock the bootloader?

But in any case the official unlocking mechanism will always work?

Reading the guide about that I understand this to be a fairly uncomplicated process - why would this be a problem in any way? And why would I care about losing DRM as stated in some unlock guides? I never perceived DRM to be more than a hindrance and stayed well away from any such tainted content...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
1. Yes, the custom ROM community is still going strong. Go to the Android Development section and find a ROM of your choice.

2. Yes, since Sony did not release the required libraries for HDMI, it's not possible to use HDMI with a custom ROM for now.

3. The Pro is an old phone, if you want to find a phone that meets your criteria I suggest you get another phone.

4. You can use an online service like Wotanserver to remove the carrier lock for you. Official unlock method always works for any phone without carrier branding.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
No major issues, that I know, so no need to be afraid of. Gingerbread build 4.0.2.A.0.62 is bug-free, never noticed a bug myself.

There are no factory-unlocked phones. Official unlock method will only work on phones, that do not have SIM-lock, no carrier branding and have fastboot enabled. Depending on which phone you will get, if you get one manufactured after 12W11, your options are limited.

It is not complicated, newcomers may have some problems with understanding, though I do not believe you should have any issues.

DRM, which stands for Digital Rights Management, is used for certain digital keys that allow paid content to be used.

Official unlock method removes DRM keys and by that, original TrackID will stop working (you can still use the one from Play Store), PC Companion will no longer update your phone, OTA updates will brick your phone (so just avoid them), Bravia Engine will no longer be working. The last one being most likely the only thing, that you might miss.

Just removing the carrier lock will not enable fastboot and will not allow official method.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanyG:
HDMI usage is a hard requirement which seemingly means no custom roms for me. This is something i did not (and probably never would have) found out by reading through the custom rom threads. It might just mean i have to hope for another company's willingness to combine a decent hardware keyboard with android, hdmi out and fairly recent hardware.

Is this a sony thing or common with all vendors and phones?

I've looked over several rom and kernel changelogs and see lots of seemingly interesting things (many of which i don't even pretend to understand). While I can live without some performance and battery tweaks or additional governors and schedulers I probably would like to have overclocking and definitely usb-otg support.

Since the latter is often listed as a fairly recent addition to roms it's probably not even working on stock. But maybe i'm wrong in assuming this? Maybe its just about storage support while mice and keyboards work in the official rom?

You're right in that this is probably the 'worst' of the things you've listed. I found a decent article explaining what this actually does and I don't think I would mind terribly. For those interested here's the link:

HDMI on Xperia Pro

Hi,

I'm a newbie myself, but I just updated my Experia Pro with a custom ROM (Superlegger V6) and it _does_ support HDMI (I tested it out and it works fine).

My understanding is that any custom ROM based on Sony Firmware (GB or ICS) will support HDMI, but that those ROMs built from source (e.g. Cyanogenmod/Free Xperia, or any based on Jellybean sources) won't.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Correct.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Yeah, I may have forgot to mention that stock based custom ROMs can still use HDMI.

Any JB ROM or non stock custom ROM will not support HDMI because Sony libs are not compatible with it.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanyG:
Thank you for this!

Did you ever try to hook up an usb stick/hdd via USB OTG cable with this rom?

I don't understand the limitations of basing a custom rom upon an official one.

Does one need to keep the official kernel only but can exchange everything else? Or are relevant libraries/drivers extracted and used in conjunction with some modified ones on any kernel with the same version?

I have little experience with this technology - how well does it really work and how restricting is it concerning compatible media formats? Will it work on any compatible display/tv in the same way or will the functionality vary (eg a video on the phone plays on one tv while it will not on another)?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harmonizeddeath:
Of course there are mods available. Some of the communities favorite ROMs have that feature. You just have to look around. Off the top of my head I don't know any for sure, though I think Carbon ROM has the variation in H and H+ (though, from what I have seen, most ROMs don't change it in the Quick Toggles. So, if it says "H" on your status bar, the Quick Toggle still says "H+").

Browse around the Android Development threads; you're sure to find what you are looking for.

Hey guys!

I have done this a million times earlier but now facing a rather annoying problem while restoring Viber's data with Titanium Backup Pro. I had made a backup, but then something went wrong and I had to format the my OB. Now, when I am trying to restore the data on a fresh install of Viber (using .apk file) using Titanium Backup, it restores the data well but then it within a half a second, sends me back to the 'Enter your mobile number' page. The backup that I am trying the restore from was made on the same ROM and the same version of Viber. I have been able to do the same thing so many times earlier but now. I cannot really verify the number as it has expired already but that's my contact number for Viber with everyone around contacting me with that number on Viber/Whatsapp. Please help! I have tried deleting data/data/com.viber.voip and then reboot. Tried deleting viber folder in the sd-card. I have tried copying the com.viber.voip directory from an update.zip created earlier to the data/data directory but to no avail. I have 2-3 backups of viber data but none seem to be working. I really need your help. While whatsapp is working with that number but for calling purposes, I require Viber to be working on that number.

Thank you - awesome people! :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slyfth:
No, I wasn't able to restore the backup. However, I blame it on the corrupted backup data as there's no other reason I can think of. Maybe that is what happened with your backup file too!

I'm sorry to hear that. But I was able to restore mine. It is definitely not corrupted. I can't remember the exact steps but unzip the viber backup in titanium and copy viber messages and viber messages journal and paste it to data/data/com.viber.voip

If you were unable to follow my steps, then maybe you could search it here in xda. Good luck! :)

Whenever I browse the Internet and try to type any text in a text field at the bottom of a page (mobile Facebook page for example), my keyboard appears right on top of the text field thus I can't see what I'm typing.

Couple of points to help you on the way:

1- if the program (ba_o2asia_14000_923_11200_ship.exe) gives you device error, you need to extract the files and replace (BaUpgradeUt.exe) by (M)aUpgradeUt.exe) which is available on this site as well.

2- if you get device error don't disconnect just re-run MaUpgradeUt.exe again
