Wow, I've changed (increased) volume on every other phone, but my VS986 is almost too loud at full volume.

VS986 LG G4
[G4 Themes and Apps] Usraek:
The G4 file appears to be slightly different, did you modify all values listed?
[G4 Themes and Apps] AhsanU:
I felt like the G4 was plenty loud as is, but I still modified a few things to get it slightly louder. Using solid explorer:

Root storage -> system -> etc -> mixer_paths.xml

You'll see: <ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value = xx>

Please note that certain variants may have different files. I distinctly remember Verizon G3 users had a different file to modify in order to get the sound louder. This may be the case for specific variants of the G4 as well.

I replaced all the digital volumes, from RX1 to RX8 to 90 and noticed a bit of a difference in everything. I'm not quite sure what each one does specifically, as the G3 had a bit this written out a bit cleaner, but 90 seems like the sweet spot for me in the G4. I scrolled down the entire xml file and couldn't really find anything else helpful (more like skimmed it, others may be able to find something).

Now if only I could get rid of the annoying feature that constantly puts the volume down whenever I put headphones in! Ugh.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Usraek:
Yeah, I'm actually getting annoyed by the G4 and how quiet it is. I've even started considering headphone app options or even a separate MP3 player!

I have Viper installed and it doesn't help enough...

Now, with the 'RX*' lines, I see the large list near the top of the file, but did you also change the ones that are listed throughout under the separate headings/subsections?
[G4 Themes and Apps] AhsanU:
I actually did not. Maybe set those values to 95 and give it a whirl. I'd try myself but I'm preoccupied at the moment.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Usraek:
Okay cool, I'll take a poke in a bit. Just researching a bit more as I'm not really interested in getting stuck in boot-loop. lol
[G4 Themes and Apps] allblaq505:
It won't boot loop all it will do is remove all the sound on the phone
[G4 Themes and Apps] jesssiii:
I'm quite familiar with modding the mixer_paths.xml (did it on every rom on my LG G2), so I'd be happy to mod one for you. PM me if you need help.

VS986 LG G4
[G4 Themes and Apps] Usraek:
So, as an update... With a shotgun approach to changing values, we have a beautiful volume increase. It's stellar. Both [MENTION=2861395]jesssiii[/MENTION] are going to be digging into the file a bit more when we have time and will sort it out better.. It's a bit of trial and error, but with a good idea now.

It seems unlike the G2, jesssiii was able to use my mixer_paths.xml file without problem despite different variants. If anyone would like my terribly messy trial one to test or mess around with you can send me a PM and I'll explain what I've done a bit. Otherwise, as I said, once we have a better idea we'll share a cleaner solution!!

BTW: THIS IS ****ING AWESOME. The problems I have with this phone are slowly melting away with root. :)
[G4 Themes and Apps] phillymade:
I'm glad someone else found this to be of use other than me. I'll be watching to see what you come up with. Incall volume is the one I'm after.
[G4 Themes and Apps] Usraek:
You may need to poke around a bit then, I don't really speak on the phone often so I'm not testing anything lol.

This file is a lot more complicated than the G2 one. Judging from the other thread I'd start modifying the 'RX* Digital Volume' settings for things with the 'handset' header.

And for everyone else, so people can get a jump on, as who knows when I'm going to have time in next couple weeks...

Here you go!

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1dI2Or-HQ8JLTB3X1VSX2c4Vm8/view?usp=docslist_api

This is a very scattershot approach, and it may have some unexpected results due to that, because we haven't quite refined it.

I went through and searched 'headphones' and changed many of the 'RX* Digital Volume' up to the number 94 (to make sure it was obvious which I changed). I also changed one 'SPK Amp Volume' from 5 to 8, under a 'speaker-and-headphones' heading. Also near the very top of the file I changed a whole list of 'RX* Digital Volume' values that were in a row.

What I didn't change was anything very clearly referring to something, such as TTY, USB, anything mentioning a KHz, VOIP, etc... But it is easy to find what I did.

The goal was to sit down when I have more time and figured out exactly which of the many are the ones that matter for this case of actually increasing headphones, as we had two more conservative attempts that did nothing at all.

I am using FX File Explorer (with root plugin), and it doesn't seem to have the problem of truncating files or modifying permissions, but it's good to always double check.

Good luck, and feel free to take a shot and share your results.

(I'm not responsible for any problems, don't forget to backup your file and check permissions!)
[G4 Themes and Apps] jesssiii:
In-call volume path in the G2 was found here:

Dont set it too loud as echo will happen. Credit to dr87 for that info.

I haven't had time yet to look for this in my G4 as yet.

Also, I found the changed file linked by usreak above to give distortion at high volume. On the G2 it was said for headphones to only adjust:

<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="32" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="32" />

And for speaker RX7 Digital.

Obviously this all needs more research/experimentation. Thanks [MENTION=5103814]Usraek[/MENTION] for your help and work!

For those who tried it well, how louder is it making the G4 with earphones?

I tried my Hifiman RE 272 and the stock volume of the G4 is not loud enough
[G4 Themes and Apps] phillymade:
If you are referring to flashing the zip found in the LINKED OP, it should NOT have worked as it is for the G3. The link was a see how and what lines in the mixer_paths file to edit. Please read what you are doing and don't just download and flash, bad things will happen. Also, ALWAYS do a backup before you flash!
[G4 Themes and Apps] FadeFx:
To save you without getting the correct file you could go through "low effort root" process or flash a stock rom and reroot.

As my prvious poster sayed, you should always read carefully before flashing something, this time it was just the wrong mixer.config, next time maybe something bad on your bootloader partition which means unrecoverable.

It looks like LG G4 is inferior to G3 - this beast could blow out the headphones, it could go so loud without any distortion.

Tried all the values, it does slightly boost the volume, but very quickly there are distortions. I guess we need to live with the low headphones volume.

Hello i want to share with you some informations about this mod.

I have lg g4 H815 europe and if you want to make your music player sounds louder only on headphones only this lines can help you.

Look from this values from 2455 to 2565

its started from:

2455 <path name="headphone-24bit-48khz">

finish:

2559 <path name="headphone-24bit-192khz-aux">

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="87" />

<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="87" />

Default was 84. I recommend 86-87 all other values were too loud for me. If you have good quality mp3s, flac's you dont need higher values.

LG G4 by default is loud for me :)

thanks everyone who find this mod.

Hello.

Friend of mine got her phone returned from unofficial service, after phone was dropped and LCD smashed (along with digitalizer as it looks like). Now touches are inaccurate - e.g. pressing number 3 on a dialer touch recognizes as pressing a 5 or 4. I don't know who it was she took a phone to (so I could talk to him directly), but she was told he can't fix that and he had same problem but somehow "magically" got it fixed (on same phone).

Issue looks exactly like in this video, but factory reset doesn't fix it.

Can it play 1080p videos coz I heard Moto limited it in 5.1 update?

Is battery life better or worse than KitKat? AND

Which should I flash Untouched or Optimized (also explain a &b versions)?

Please help... M new

Thanks
[Moto E Android Development] lost101:
These zips are very stable, Stock ROMs created by Motorola and optimized for Moto E. Each zip includes the ROM and Stock Kernel - there are no custom 5.1 Kernels at this time. The first post explains the difference between 'Untouched' and 'Optimized' - Google search any feature you don't understand. There is also an FAQ in post #2.

Refer to the 'ROM Release Log' in post #2 to understand why there might be more than one version of a ROM. The 'changelog' will tell you what has been changed. The newer version should be the best.

The rest of your questions will have to be answered by those using the ROM. However, Battery life should be better with Lollipop - especially if you are using the Optimized ROMs.
