No thats for the stock mdk kernel used in the rooting process. You need to download one of the stock factory images. That will return your phone to out of the box software. It is flashed using the pda option so the process is the same. The images are posted in the dev section just make sure you grab the mdk image.

That removes root/recovery to doesn't it? Ok thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Yeah itll remove root and recovery so youll have to do that over again. if your on stock and just wanting to clean your phone up you can do a factory data reset. There are also stock rooted roms in the dev section that will put you back on a stock rom and youll retain root.

It was to clean my phone up and get the latest TWRP. Flashed TWRP when it was a .0 release and was having some issues with it off and on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Oh ok I gotcha. I know rom toolbox lite has 2.5.0.2 which is what most recommened, it seems to be the most stable. There is also a thread that has a flashable zip of it somewhere here on the forums. I wanna say its in the original dev section. If you cant find it post back I have a zip of it I can upload to my dropbox.

It looks great on the note 3 screen. The lock screen is cool also, when you hover your finger over the screen a star appears that you can move around

Looks amazing thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Southern_mind:
That's the light lock screen from the S4. It is cool. And it does that with any live Wallpaper. On the S4 it was with any regular wallpaper.

I'm trying to find a large screen keyboard that I can use with my fingers instead of the stylus. Can anyone recommend a good one to use.. any freeware or otherwise.

Thanks
[General Topics] vijay555:
I like thumbkeys (or bigkeys) or something like that. It changed name.

Not free, but for me, nicely skinnable, i wrote a skinner for it and made a couple of thumb friendly layouts.

Many similar, but I like this for the effort.

[General Topics] mtbsoft:
Spb Full Screen Keyboard - it's just been updated to version 3 with portrait (real qwerty, not offset like above) and landscape modes, WM2K3/5 support and a number of other features like spelling correction/learning.
[General Topics] JJ-XDA:
Thanks for that, but I couldn't find thumbkeys or bigkeys on google.

I did come across Tengo Thumb.. I'm downloading it now, hopefully it's good.

If you have a link to your app that would be great.
[General Topics] JJ-XDA:
Just what I'm after... Thank you!!
[General Topics] vijay555:
Sorry, touch keyboard:

http://www.orthancsoftware.com/TKeyboard.htm

mtbsoft: my keyboard layout is not by accident, it's by design.

Print it out and try typing with it using one thumb.

I find it better (on a smaller screen like the Magician) then the standard QWERTY. I also use a fullscreen landscape keyboard using regular qwerty, for two thumbs.

I also did a modified fitaly and some others for symbols, calculator layout for numbers etc. But I use this one daily.

(SPB's fullscreen portrait)

I'm sure most keyboard apps are fully skinnable now though.

thanks ，i will try
[G2 Android Development] sil0:
Reserved.

TIP #1:

If your G2 stock earbuds fit your ear canals really well, see if they fit on your other earphones!

I tried these G2 ear buds on my ie-80 in-ears and i can honestly say they give the best seal i have had in 7 months since getting these earphones!

The G2 buds have an abnormally large hole diameter which allows alot more high/mid range through than my previous sets. Stoked!

TIP #2:

Clean your in-ear headphones regularly, scotch tape works great!

Pull off the earbuds and carefully dab (do not rub) each the earphone housing speaker grills repeatedly with sticky part of the scotch tape to remove any wax/dirt buildup.

Repeat this once every 1 - 2 weeks to ensure longer life/good sound of your earphones.

If possible store your in-ears in a clean container/sealed carry pouch so they do not collect dust/lint/dirt from your pockets.
[G2 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Thanks for the mod. Tested a FLAC song with stock music player on speakers. Max volume and no distortion. :)
[G2 Android Development] sil0:
Great to hear!

On a note of personal note, i had viper4android installed on my LG G2 but with these modifications,

i ended up uninstalling it as i was primarily using it for volume boost purposes as opposed to signal shaping/eq-ing.

I also found that viper4android would work randomly with some files but not others.

IMO Volume boosting should work consistently at all times, across the board.

From the purist/consistency train of thought this volume mod will give you consistent volume boosting and more power to your headphones (fuller sound) without altering/degrading the already superb audio signal, or adding digital noise.

That being said, viper4android is a great app for shaping the sound signature, which is what it is primarily designed for.

For me, "the closer to the original source, the better" :)
[G2 Android Development] leerapalot:

[G2 Android Development] shook187:
Soliciting for "thanks" is kind of lame especially considering I saw this mod first in the link you provided in the OP
[G2 Android Development] hd-renegade:
The old file is rw~r~~r~~ the permissions on the file you have here is set to rw~rw~r~~. What should the permissions be set to??

Thank you
[G2 Android Development] shook187:
Use root explore and change permission by checking the boxes accordingly
[G2 Android Development] hd-renegade:
That is what I did, just wanted to make sure it was right. Someone might want to add that to the first post.
[G2 Android Development] sil0:
Permissions should not make a difference in this case, however you can set them to rw~r~~r~~ for the file as shook mentioned using root explorer.

Mine are currently set to rw~rw~r~~ and there is no difference in performance.

I have updated OP with step 6 as optional. Cheers!

Just helping jesus3109 voice be heard.

" This is for the mod in android development.. I cant post anything there cause im a new memeber so i need ten posts...

Bassically if you do this mod it will make speaker mode not work... You can hear the other person but they wont hear you.. It disables the mic... Same thing if u use earphones with a mic... U could hear them but they wont hear you....

If someone can get this message out in the lg g2 develpment thread ill appreciate it... ￼"
[G2 Android Development] sil0:
Really.

Well not giving thanks where its due, is even more lame, not to mention it is Thanksgiving today after all..

1. For what its worth i stumbled on this file in my G2 looking through sys etc files as a result of modding my note 2 last year in similar fashion, when i was looking for volume boosting without 3rd party apps at the time.

2. I have spent time testing to ensure i get the levels right on a fair range of equipment, and i feel others should be entitled the chance to benefit from this as well.

3. That thread that i ended up finding (and linking out of courtesy regardless) is pretty convoluted and a bit of a mess, labelled ATT (i am on Bell and this is a universal fix, not just ATT), and realistically only addresses speaker volume.

4. I have provided a working tested version of the file that G2 owners can use if they choose; not everyone is comfortable/has time/patience to edit/test settings in order to enjoy the untapped potential their phones have to offer.

5. I was in actuality not soliciting (seeing as we are NOT selling anything here), but making a factual observation through my thanks post, and the same applies to all positive dev/mod work.

You're welcome.
[G2 Android Development] nic85:
thanks, audio seems improved and much higher.

maybe a bit too high.. I can't set volume up to middle.
[G2 Android Development] sil0:
The version i posted on this thread works fine with no issues.

I have tested the scenarios detailed in your post using 2 different cell phone lines, calling my g2 from another cell, and vice versa.

Both with speaker mode enabled/disabled, and with/without headphones.

Mic works fine in both cases for me, no issues here on my Bell version G2.

I do not currently have a pair of headphones with microphone built in to test that format though, if anyone else can test that would be great.

Please clarify carrier, whether phone is stock or not,whether has he done any file edits after the fact, etc.
[G2 Android Development] sil0:

[G2 Android Development] mannequin:
interesting that the voice in Google navigation is still kinda low compared to everything else with this mod.
[G2 Android Development] avidmovies:
This worked FAR better than the other volume mod.

No muted mic while on speaker with this one!

Interesting tip, you can actually stay "unrooted" if you just get root adb (doesn't trip rootchecker), and then adb push the modded sound file.
[G2 Android Development] lazer77:
I know it's stated in the OP as a potential issue (which it indeed was for me on my D800), is there a fix yet for the muted mic problem? Or is a fix not possible?
[G2 Android Development] mannequin:
that seems to be my observation as well. the headphones output seems to be overpowered and starts to distort the low shelf frequencies at middle volumes and up.
[G2 Android Development] avidmovies:
If you use the AT&T one on D800, there shouldn't be any issues with muted mic with this mod. Make sure to reboot after applying

Probably won't need it, but it'd be a good thing to have!!
[G2 Android Development] LenAsh:
The one I posted above should work.
[G2 Android Development] mantici:
Problem is, that one looks like it's for the D802 . some values are off if you diff the 2 files (the one i have and the one posted above). . . values that are NOT related to the volume output (such as mic settings, etc).

I'm looking for a stock D801 file.

But thanks.
[G2 Android Development] Kreuger:
Out of curiousity, does that work on all variants? I did do a nandroid backup but it would be nice to have that as an extra precaution.

[G2 Android Development] eozen81:
First of all thank you for this critical mod.

I have been on international G2 with stock ROM and only one question. Compared to other players my FM Radio volume sounds louder on headphone, Is there any way to decrease FM radio volume a bit by playing with the file?
[G2 Android Development] frappe33:
Tried out this mod on my T-Mobile d801 device with Logitech Ultimate Ears in-ear phones and found it to be heavy on the bass and somewhat distorted. Appreciate the efforts OP. I'll keep popping around and look for changes to the file that may improve my experience. Glad that for so many folks this is a great fix. My experience could be a myriad of factors from my heavily downloaded catalog of music, my $50 buds, my personal tastes, tinnitus, who knows.
[G2 Android Development] therethere:
Any news on a version to cm11? Can't live without this mod, and no success on my attempts

[G2 Android Development] arkain123:
You can do what the mod does on CM11 and it absolutely will work (it did for me). /system/etc and edit mixer_paths.xml, changing the speaker and headset volumes from 52 to 80.
[G2 Android Development] LenAsh:
Yes
[G2 Android Development] akuma148:
Headphones works great on T-Mobile, thanks! Would you be able to increase the Bluetooth volume also? I use my phone to stream audio to my car using Bluetooth and I don't notice any increase in volume. Using the headphone jack is good, however using wireless Bluetooth would be awesome.
[G2 Android Development] GillRigged:
Does anyone have the stock file for VS98011A? I flashed a volume mod before finding this thread and now I'm having the microphone issues. Tempted to just flash back to stock but I'm getting great battery life with only a couple other tiny issues that I could put up with until my work week is over if I can resolve this in - call microphone issue.
[G2 Android Development] :
Hi,

GillRigged, extract the snd_soc_msm_Taiko file from the stock rom for your device and replace the file located in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm with a file explorer and set the correct permissions.

Or replace the file inside the zip file you used and reflash to have the original file back.

:)
[G2 Android Development] GillRigged:
I wish it were that easy but stock ROM files are tot files. However, it looks like someone posted the original stock file a while ago on post #165. Gonna give that a shot and if I get my microphone functionality back then I'll give this one another go around.
[G2 Android Development] :
Yes you're right there is a stock file post #165. For stock rom I mean a "custom" rom flashable zip but untouched to extract the file.

It's always better to make a Nandroid backup before flashing stuff ;)

:)
[G2 Android Development] gladden237:
Are there any issues with this mod?

So I'm on the latest verizon OTA, and I was wondering if this mod has any mic issues like it seems people are having? And also is this recommended over the viper mod? Im mainly looking for volume increase and stability (I take it the quality is fine)
[G2 Android Development] wm388:
I'm on stock rooted verizon too, and I've not experienced any mic issues. Quality is A-OK as well. Happy New Year!
[G2 Android Development] gladden237:
Do i need to remove the ".verizon"? how?

Great mod that I highly recommend but... (ignore title)

Can anyone tweak this mod to make it like 30- 50% louder? My old iPod is still louder even after using this mod and I will constantly be unsatisfied with it until the volume surpasses my ipod... I'm on the latest Verizon ota if that matters btw
[G2 Android Development] victou42:
Hi Everybody, first thank you for this amazing mod

But now i notice that only one of my speaker is on and the speaker near my jack is off, do i have a problem?
[G2 Android Development] alex72:
No. LG G2 has only one speaker.
[G2 Android Development] victou42:
SO, what's the thing who look like a speaker at the right of the jack?
[G2 Android Development] nitsua98:
It's a mic, and it doesn't look like a speaker at all.
[G2 Android Development] jameseytickner:
Don't be a ****, only a few variants have one speaker, paired with two mics, whilst a majority have two speakers alongside one mic, And it clearly looks like a speaker on such variants, it is identical to the other...

EDIT: Actually, only the Verizon model has it, the rest of the variants have two speakers, some with two mics.
[G2 Android Development] alex72:
I'm using AT&T D800 and it has only one speaker. BTW, it has two grills so it looks like it has two speakers. I believe that's the case with other LG G2 models. Only one speaker.

---------- Post added at 02:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 AM ----------

It's a mic. It looks exactly like speaker grill on other side but unfortunately it's not a second speaker. It's by design and it fooled a lot of people including me.
[G2 Android Development] gladden237:
Need more volume please

How I make volume even louder?
[G2 Android Development] victou42:

[G2 Android Development] jameseytickner:
On the D802 it is a speaker, it says on lgs website, the d800 has a mic on the top and the back and it should be twp speakers, just the second one is awful
[G2 Android Development] alex72:
Yeah. It should be two but believe me it's only one. Look for proof on YouTube where people disassemble d800.

Edit; You are wrong about D802 as well. I just watched video about it. It's same design as D800. Just one speaker.
[G2 Android Development] bervin:
Will this work on flex rom?
[G2 Android Development] nismology:
I've just had a eureka moment!. For some reason this mod and the other thread that also modified the snd_soc_msm_taiko file was hit and miss and it seems to work better with the LG-based ROM's. I never really got back to the sound I got with Buckeye ROM. There is also a thread in the Themes and Apps that deals with changing certain parameters within the mixer_paths.xml file in /etc so I tried doing that too (without changing Mahdi ROM's snd_soc_msm_taiko file) but nothing worked. Same old low volume as on all the other AOSP builds I've tried.. So I thought to myself, why not try both mods together and WHOA!! This is the volume increase we were all looking for. It seems like if you increase RX1/RX2 digital headphone volumes in one without changing the other, the lower value will limit total output and it'll will almost sound like it's clipping with heavy bass. Doing both truly unleashes this DAC. Of course you can overdo and distortion is the result but with moderate values, this thing is a beast.

The mixer_paths.xml file can be found in the /system/etc folder. I went down to after it says

<!-- These are actual sound device specific mixer settings -->

and changed the RX1 and RX2 digital volumes in this section to 70

<path name="headphones">
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM RX2 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="Two" />
<ctl name="RX1 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />
<ctl name="RX2 MIX1 INP1" value="RX2" />
<ctl name="CLASS_H_DSM MUX" value="DSM_HPHL_RX1" />
<ctl name="HPHL DAC Switch" value="1" />
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="[COLOR="Red"]70[/COLOR]" />
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="[COLOR="Red"]70[/COLOR]" />
<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="[COLOR="Red"]20[/COLOR]" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="[COLOR="Red"]20[/COLOR]" />

I also changed the HPHL/HPHR volume entries to 20. That combined with this sil0's mod or a variation of it will have your ears ROCKING. My phone now drives my 64ohm HD280 Pro's with ease and I actually have to keep it at half volume for optimum listening versus 75% before. I personally chose to keep the values in both files the same at 70 but feel free to play around with it to your liking. Hope this helps!!

P.S. I only chose 70 because I also use to phone to play music in my car. 65 would probably be plenty to drive my HD280's. As always, YMMV.

[G2 Android Development] danial.aw:
do you mind uploading your modified file please... :)

i personally dont find the headphones ovlume loud enough coming form the one
[G2 Android Development] nismology:
It's probably best that you upload your file and I upload the edited version. Each G2 variant could have differences in the mixer_paths file and I'd prefer to leave that part intact. I'm pretty sure you could do this yourself as well if you're careful. This isn't all that complex. ;)
[G2 Android Development] danial.aw:
Ya I looked over it... Unfortunately I realised after the fact that you meant the mod for aosp Rom... Stock has no mixer path file :(
[G2 Android Development] nismology:
Ahhh OK makes sense and would confirm why on LG-based ROM's this MOD is a killer but with an AOSP ROM it didn't seem to do much. In that case, the mod included in the OP that modifies the snd_soc_msm_taiko file should be all you need to increase volume. Just be sure to download the file that corresponds to your variant (D802).
