Glad everyone is enjoying the volume mods hopefully when i get some time i can modify all of them even more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ArborRes:
Wow! Just installing the Moderate version has boosted my sound up so high that I may need to try the Moderate Lite version instead.

Great work! Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lennie:
I think this is 1 of 2 reasons I rooted my phone....the other is lcd density. Everything is raised however I haven't found an app that can tune the sound
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GallardosEggrollShop:
Great mod and very appreciated! However at the moderate setting my ringtones and media at full volume start to crackle a bit. I tried the moderate lite setting and it's less prominent but still crackling at higher volumes. Could it just be my device?

Edit: Nevermind, just needed to restart it after installing the MOD and it's working fine now. Thanks again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tha Watcher:
For some reason you have me wondering if the Moderate is louder than the Very Loud. Why does curiosity make me want to also try out the Moderate? :silly:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lennie:
I heard it killed the cat though....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Fidelio_o:
Btw does this only work on the Galaxy Note 3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
Yes only note 3 quad core devices
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GigDroid:
What are you using to change LCD density?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cwalker29:
It's a app that comes with darkstalker Rom call density changer

I'm going to do the apk, but I don't know where to put the file once it installs???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] raw2000j:
I adjust them accordingly since some mp3 higher than others make sure you select your effect in settings/device/sound/musick effects and select viper4android not music fx Mine sounds great and select the "CortexA8 with NEON driver when you install the app

I'm getting an error "E: Unable to open zip file"

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tha Watcher:
This is after attempting to flash the zip?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jvs60:
Yes, I tried flashing in twrp and that's the error I'm getting. I don't think the problem is with the recovery because I flashed a rom and did a backup just fine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Joell27:
What's the difference between the moderate and moderate lite?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: volume boosting

The moderate is MODERATE in loudness, the moderate lite is not as loud as the moderate.

That should explain everything!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] smoothjeff:
Does this get rid of the warning sign when turning up the headset volume? Mine also automatically turns the volume back down after unplugging the headphones cable then plugging it back in (I use the 3.5mm jack to my car stereo) does it prevent this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
Doing version 2 now! Now volume boost will be overally boosted on everything that you connect the phone to bluetooth speakers, car speakers, phone calls, and so much more!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
Warning volume sign is rom modification related, these is just for volume boosts.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tt281gt:
Wanam can remove the sound warning. Must have the x posed framework
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
New update is now up! VERSION 2!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pathtologos:
I asked this on another thread but person who answered wasn't sure: if I Flash a kernel after flashing this mod, will I have to flash the mod again?

EDIT: just flashed moderate. All I can say is Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JawjaBill:
Think I will try the moderate lite. That's what worked for me on the GS4.

btw, I drink my whiskey clear as well. Sting 'em! Place looks a whole lot different from when I was there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wamu93:
I am a bit hard of hearing in one ear, I tried the loudest zip available and too me I felt only a minor boost in vol, would the the v2, [very loud] be even louder? I would like to use the headset, for both voice and vids/tunes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
Nope they are just two different files so there will be no reflashing just once and thats it! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
You can try v2 and let me know. Seems like youtube vids had gotten a bit louder and everything else in general. Also there is less distortion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] wamu93:
I tried youtube and it does seem a lil louder.. haven't had a chance to try voice will report baxk.. what's the max it can go lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] smoothjeff:
Whenever headphones are unplugged and plugged back in the volume is automatically decreased, does this mod prevent the volume from lowering or is that coming from another system configuration/file?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jovy23:
I think it has always been like that even on all stock samsung devices it automatically decreases once you unplug and plug it back in just in case if you have the headphones on whole doing it, it wont damage your ears so it will always decrease for safety reasons by samsung.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kitsunisan:
I don't see a reason why that wouldn't work. I'll give it a shot in the morning, way too tired to mess with my phone right now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dwitherell:
Yep - that switch lives in framework.jar fwiw, so changing the files with those in the OP won't alter that behavior at all :)

Yes you can move file

It works this way. Its how I change fonts too. Just put .bak on old file
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mutantblack:
Can you explain how to move this zip to which place? I have ATT rooted but no recovery. Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tenemortem88:
^^ Would be awsome ^_^
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] griffis:
After extracting the zip, copy the file (snd_soc_msn_Taiko_cdp) and paste it to

system/etc/snd_soc_msm/

Change permission to rw-r-r then reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nlarge:
Instead of overwriting I added .bak to the original so its still in same folder in case I want to revert
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mutantblack:
Thank you guys for helping me out where to place the file. It's different than Note 2.

Using the moderate file and wow the speakers are so much better. Thx a lot OP.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ruebarb:
Use a program like tasker, it can adjust the volume when you plug in or Unplug.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mutantblack:
I tried Tasker. I give up after few hours of figuring out. Even with the noob guide and all the guides I follow, I still get lost.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tha Watcher:
Did you know nowy57 has a thread for the exact same thing? It was posted a day after yours.

Who actually created this mod - you or him?

I assume it's yours because it was posted first. I didn't know they allowed copycating stuff on XDA.

I just made a post in nowy57's thread thinking it was the original one. Anyway, I'll put it here, too. Meanwhile you guys sort this out...

If very loud is too loud, do I need to flash back to stock before flashing moderate. Or can I just flash over it.

I don't know of anyone else is getting this but when I flashed the Moderate, I started getting video player fc's and texts aren't sending.

I'm using VP4A with the moderate sound boost and it's plenty loud enough for me. The only thing I noticed is I have to keep the setting for extra-loud in VP4A off otherwise the audio gets garbled. Just my $.02 worth.

Anyone here running this and viper? Just trying to figure out what the advantages are in doing so. Right now im running this with poweramp and its eq. Any advice would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimnyc2000:
Viper has it's own boost plus it's an equalizer so not sure if poweramp's equalizer would work under viper. This boost is great if you want to use poweramps or Neutron's equalizers. At least that's the way i believe it :)

In my opinion using poweramp and viper if u use both it wont be as loud once u shut off poweramp equalizers and all effects it goes louder once u turn poweramp effects off they conflict if you have both on

Change the path name headphones 77 or 83 to 90 ( I had 83 on cm 11 with viper but people had 77 on TW 4.4.2)

Make sure permissions are set and reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] texas83:
I was able to access that file but can't seem to locate the headphones entry. Also will it boost the speakerphone as well?

I love CM 11 but it is just so annoyingly quiet on speakerphone! Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] emann56:
Oh sorry mine says headphones but I i think your cm 11 says headset.

Yes speakers work too. I set mine to 90 and it is much louder.

Install the adb tool in your laptop (if you don't have it) with the drivers that I linked you before...

connect the device via usb to your laptop and run

adb push /path/to/local/file /mnt/sdcard/path/to/file

"/path/to/local/file" is where you have the CROMi-X zip file in your laptop

"/mnt/sdcard/path/to/file" is in your tf700

I am making headway and I appreciate all the help!!!

I can't get to the file in twrp like you state. The folder is empty even though i have formatted the card and added the zip files to the card.

I have gotten adb to run, but it doesn't see the device. I wasn't able to get the drivers you pointed me to to work. Windows doesn't recognize them when I point to the folder. I found a site that a guy had mentioned helped him install drivers when he couldn't and it led to a program called: USB Driver Tool SFX (http://visualgdb.com/UsbDriverTool/)

I was able to install a driver but it didn't work for adb, it was the Libusb - WinUSB driver and it installed as that and listed the device as that, not transformer.

So, I am stuck trying to get the tablet recognized by adb. Any ideas how to get the asus android usb drivers recognized? The zip didn't contain an install program, so I had to go into device manager and point to the directory.
