im not gonna pretend i know how to navigate this forum at all but i wanted to share this file for the galaxy avant users. for those of us who actually want a smaller phone. im sure an admin will put this in its place. this will probally also be my last upload.
last night i followed a tutorial on how to hack the volume of the galaxy s4 and i found that this also works on the galaxy avant, but instead of changing speaker rx7, its speaker rx4. i also realize that, so far, i could not find the mixer path file already uploaded for the avant in case someone screws up like i did last night while rooting my new phone. from the old phone this is my mixer path file that was already hacked and working great. you can adjust volumes lower to restore your broken file back to stock, or just download this file and replace the old one with the high volume ready to go.

Thank you for the volume hack. Works great on stock avant rom. Just heads up it would be best to tell people where to put the mixer file.
First people download file and extract then copy and paste and rewrite permission to rw-r-r. File will be located under /system the /etc folder.
Just a heads up for those that didn't know.
Ty again Def boost volume like crazy Ty

Yes, I have it on mine. I could not copy the file via TC, so I just copied it and went to the Windows directory and pasted it in. You will have to do a soft reset, but it works perfectly.

Will this work for Verizon as well? Will it help the speakerphone too? I REALLY would like the speakerphone to be MUCH louder!
Thanks!

Here you go. Just extract the file and copy it directly to the Windows folder and do a soft resest. Do not use Total Commander to copy the file, I have had problems with it that way. Copy it from TC or any file explorer, then navigate to the \Windows directory and copy in the root of that directory.
"I am not sure who the real credit goes to for making this file, but I did obtain it at ppcgeeks.com"
WOW!
That worked GREAT! It is MUCH louder now! Thank you for you help!!!!!
You could also try SRSwowHD. It stopped working on WM6.1 on my Mogul, but it works beautifully on the Touch Pro.
If you try it, just make sure you select the headphones setting and slide the center setting to 100%
Access is Denied
First time posting.
I'm trying to copy and paste but an error message appears "Cannot copy "AudioPara3". Access is denied.
Can anyone help me, please?
Cab for audiopara3... it is the lighter version hope it helps... has done wonders for my fuze
Got it work - I think
The file is a zip file and I saved straight into a folder on the phone. I used the zip file program to place it within the windows folder and it certainly sounds louder than before.
Thanks for the help

This one worked well for me. A few other audiopara3 CSV files rendered my system speaker nearly useless...
where can I find the colored top bar for the sprint touch pro
I have tried both options with no success. Will apreciate any help. The first AudioPara 3 indicates me access denied and the lighter version just puts my speaker on a low front a just barely can hear music.
Audioparas can be funny..I had different results with 12 different audioparas..
And now when one of them has worked on my SEX1i, it stops working once I use and plug out my headphone...
Am still looking for an audiopara that will work for me..hehe
hi, i have a galaxy II and Nokia BH-214 Bluetooth handsfree. everything works great, but the quality is poor. I read that you can change bitpool but I do not know how. I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708265 but it did not help me because I do not know what to do
Assuming you are rooted, use Root Explorer and navigate to /system/lib/ and make a backup of the file liba2dp.so
Download file A from this post,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16220448&postcount=12
rename it to liba2dp.so and use root explorer to replace the original one in /system/lib. Reboot
Now see if you feel any difference. If things are worse, replace the original file that was backed up, reboot!
it's a little better, but still it can not compare with the quality as Nokia 5230 or Samsung Star .. thanks.
Ok guys and gals this thread started as custom lock screen on/off sounds but since then i have found in my opinion another cool mod from the s4 forum that is compatible on our devices that i think you may enjoy as well. These are not my mods in anyway i just found,tried and confirmed these working on the Note3. Please give credit where it is due if you use these mods/ports.
.........ALWAYS MAKE YOUR BACKUPS BEFORE MODDING ANYTHING!........
First up is the custom on/off lock screen sounds by a guy over on the Sprint S4 forum by the name of dav3wash so don't forget to hit that thanks button when you get over there.
1)Pick and download any of the Lock/unlock sounds you wish from the link below.
2)Extract the Lock.ogg and unlock.ogg from the zip and place on sd card in a new folder named whatever you wish.
3)With any file explorer with root access Navigate to [System / system / Media / audio / ui]
4)Scoll down til you see Lock.ogg and unlock.ogg
5)Delete or move stock sounds to the folder you made in step (2) (Incase you want to go back to stock).
6)Place custom Lock.ogg/unlock.ogg where the stock ones were shown in step (3)
7)Back out of file explorer and reboot your device.
8)After reboot Navigate to [Settings / device / lock screen / unlock effect / and set to ripple/ink] and your good to go!!!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2304198
Hope you enjoy these sounds!!!
If for any reason you would like to go back to stock the link below is the stock lock.ogg/unlock.ogg zip. This zip is non-flashable and must be pushed the same way you pushed the custom sounds. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/iw4u1ak89vl233g/AADXINdF3qBGr65eWPOLNfJ5a?dl=0
Next on the list is the Penguin ROM N7 Animations Port.(Sadly not working on NH7 or Nk4) I think this might be one of the coolest animations I've seen. Ive used this port on the s4 and now here on the Note3. CPA Poke's install method uses TWRP but i used Philz Touch and it worked fine .This ported animation originally came from a developer by the name of Skyfall007(Maker of the Penguin Rom1.1 / 4.2.2) on the Nexus 7 forum found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41820147 and seshmaru found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16420559 for technical reasons i can barely comprehend and was ported over by CPA Poke. You can find him in the s4 forums and probably the Nexus 7 forums .Thank all these guys for their hard work. All the downloads and install/uninstall instruction for this animation port can be found in the link below.
HAPPY MODDING!!!!!! Penguin ROM N7 Animations Port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42424224

Posted a link up top .
So I was poking around and came acorss these in my travels. typically these would fall under the themes and apps section but beings they are listed for Note 4 apps I thought I'd post them here incase anyone was interested. Please give albe95 thanks for posting these over at the Galaxy s4 forum. (Note 4 apps.) Enjoy!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/exclusive-note-4-apps-collection-t2882577
Got another mod here for all you guys and gals. Are you sick of that annoying droplet sound that you get everything you touch in app or menu? I know I sure was! So here's an alternative. The it will be a zip file you download THEY ARE NOT FLASHABLE!!!! They must be installed manually.
1)Use any root file manager and navigate to root system/media/audio/ui
2)Pull the TW_Touch.ogg and S_HW_Touch.ogg and save them to a new folder incase you wanna go back to stock sounds
3)Extract the content in the zip file that you downloaded from the link below.
3Copy the extracted files and paste them in there rightful places that you previously pulled your stock sounds from.
4) Back out of your file manager and reboot.
All done!!! Enjoy!
Just so you know the TW_Touch.ogg is for anything on screen that is touched and the S_WH_Touch.ogg is for your (Back) and (Menu)
Im gonna upload a few more options here shortly but for now check out the one I linked. Hope you like.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/eybkqkhce1w0htu/Droplet touch replacement.zip?dl=0
So I was going to upload more touch sounds which I am still going to do. The link below is my current setup which I find the sounds to match perfectly with the screen transitions mod that I'm running which would be the N7 posted above. However I thought I'd just throw this out there.
Assuming your already rooted and have a root file manger. (I use FX root manager)
If you go to root system/system/media/audio/ui theres a list of all the sounds for this device.
Just check out all the sounds available and find one you like for a touch sound.
Long press the sound you wish and a menu should appear.
Copy the sound and store it by press paste somewhere that is easy for you to access.
Now just rename the sound.
TW_Touch.ogg for screen touch and S_HW_Touch.ogg for (Back) and(Menu)
After you've renamed them go back into ui sounds and find the stock sounds I just listed and move them to a file incase you wanna return back to stock.
Now take the sounds you renamed and put them in the stock sounds place.
Back out and reboot. And there you go. (My touch sounds) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001609348 This is a NON-FLASHABLE zip
And as always have a back up just in case!!! If you've found this useful… Hit that thank you button!!!
Ok guys and gals I got something new for you. Are you a fan of S-finder and Quick Connect in your notification drop down but running a rom that doesn't have this included in the package? Well today is your lucky day my friends. I've tested and confirm working on fre3 rom 2.25b only so if you try with other roms please drop by to list the rom you've got it running on so that others may know. And incase you was wondering (tbltespr) is for the Sprint Note Edge. I was wondering if I would get some edge feature but S-finder and Quick Connect is all that popped up. Ok ok here are the steps to get this little tweak working.
Oh and I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DESTROY YOUR DEVICE SO TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
1) Have a back up or make a back up from the recovery of your choice of your current set up incase anything goes wrong in the process.
2) This is a build prop tweak so you will need to download a build prop editor from the playstore. I use this one but any will probaby work just as well. "Build Prop Editor"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.buildpropeditor
3)You will need to download and install the Quick Connect apk non-flashable zip from this link here.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95897840722645991
Theres 2 apk's in the download zip folder.
4)With your file manager navigate to your download folder find the zip you downloaded and tap to open then copy the 2 apk's then navigate to rooted system/systen/apps and paste the 2 files you copied and back out.
5)Once thats done open up the build prop editor you downloaded from the playstore.
6)Scroll over til you see where you do the editing now scroll down til you see
ro. product.name =hltespr and change it to tbltespr
ro.product.device = hltespr and change it to tbltespr
ro.build.product = hltespr and change it to tbltespr
7)When your done scroll back up and save your edit.
8)Now just reboot your device and profit.
If for any reason you wish to go back you can:
Restore your back up or change the tbltespr back to hltespr and delete the apk's and reboot.
Here's some screenshots if it helps. Hope you liked and happy modding!

Odin Update Zips
So I came across these Odin updates in my travels and wanted to share incase anyone was interested. I didn't see anything said anywhere really. Hope I'm not reposting something that is already on here.
Odin v3.09.3 https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347763515
Odin v3.10.6 https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347763513
Hope this helps someone!
Guys,
I can't post in the official thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/guide-headphone-speaker-volume-booster-t2819821
But I just wanted to confirm that if you root your device and follow the directions here, I've got confirmed working on the Sprint LS990 variant of this phone. The thread mentions nothing of this on Sprint or the LS990 but I can confirm that it is indeed working.
You'll need to:
1. Have root with SuperSU installed
2. Install Root Browser and 920 Text Editor (Available in market for free)
3. Navigate to system/etc and then mixer_paths.xml
4. Change file permissions to rw-r-r
5. Save to your downloads folder just in case you trash your phone or something
6. Navigate to markers mentioned in thread link above. The LS990 variant will have aforementioned markers listed approximately 15 lines later in the code. Edit them to your liking.
7. Save, reboot, pray not to get caught in limbo.
8. Enjoy having better sound than everyone else with a phone.
Just an FYI anyone attempting this: If you do not edit the permissions correctly when overwriting the file the phone will not boot. It will get stuck at the yellow sprint screen and you will have to preform a reset.
Root browser did not allow me to change permissions correctly and when going quickly I did not notice it when overwriting.
However, second attempt after recovery it worked great.
Thanks for the info TROPhouse
So i havnt edited yet but permissions look right here. Will they change after I edit and save. And then change them back right. I don't wanna get stuck since we have no custom recovery yet.
Did it. It was way worth sweatin through the reboot process. Haha.

I'm using viper. Works perfect. After installing I moved the app from data/app to system/app. Heard people were having it being stopped after using it for awhile and this was there fix for that.
Kept having permission issue and was kind of nerve wrecking with no recovery.... However, phone sounds awesome now!

What settings did you end up with. I used 68 or 69 on all mine and it's pretty good. Not sure if I want it louder or quieter but it's definitely way better than stock was.

I did 69 which seems perfect to be honest... I mainly hear music at the gym and usually use soundcloud... at 69, I don't even get close to full volume on the phone now. Its perfect
it seems like there are another few steps in this process that aren't being mentioned, like how to save the mixer_paths file because following the instructions and updating the lines I want to update then trying to save with 920 text editor ends with the message that it's a read only system file.
Anyone care to fill in the blanks as to how you get the update to stick?
thanks!

Don't know if this is too late to help, but...
I don't use 920, but my guess is there's an option somewhere (probably in settings for the app) to switch the file system to read - write mode, instead of read-only. I use the FX app, and that's what I had to do with it. Be sure to set it back to read-only when you're done.

SUCCESS!
So you need to download an app that will mount your system, I used an app called mount/system. You launch it then select Mount r/w. Once you do that you have the needed access to edit the files as listed. I used this guide as well and had success....hope this helps others!
copy the original mixer_paths to your memory by ES file
edit it by notepad++ on windows and put it again in your memory
copy it from internal to your /system
highlight it and set permissions rw r r
move it from /system to /system/etc/
reboot and enjoy
Has anyone tryied playing with bluetooth volume i cant find where to change it any sugestions?
Nice, I haven't had any issues with my phone being too quiet, but I also came from a Verizon G2. Those were noticeably horrible for volume levels, so the G3 is a welcome change.
In regards to all the questions about which app to use for which function:
You could use Root Explorer, or any other file explorer that has root capabilities (ES File Explorer, Total Commander). You do NOT need to use a specific app set and if your file explorer can't mount/unmount the system partition with root permissions, try a new one because that one sucks.
You also should not be downloading three separate apps to accomplish this. It's kind of overkill to have a file explorer, a text editor, and a system partition mounter when any decent file explorer has all three of those built in. I think ROM Toolbox even has all those capabilities in the free version.

Agreed but I downloaded ES File Explorer and several others and I was unable to find the ability to mount as r/w. If the option is in those apps, it's very much hidden so an app to mount your file system then an editor was what I needed and it worked.

ES's current interface does hide a lot, and is in almost every way inferior to the original interface. But the option is there. It's also in FX (File Explorer) which is my root editor of choice.
the pursuit of sound quality! bullet for my valentine cant be heard on stock!!!!!!!
tried this. guess i messed up. stuck on spark screen. sat and read through the pages here. gotta fix my phone when i get home tonight.
what did you change you volume levels to?
So can those who have successfully made the edits share what volume levels you changed and what are the new numbers? I've made the change to mine and even with my $100 earphones there's distortion at what I feel is a low level. I'm thinking maybe there's a balance among these that I need to achieve?
thanks!

Hey guys so I was looking for a way to increase the volume on my Verizon branded G3 with no luck. Tried Viper4Android and even the mixer_path mod but that didn't work. So I looked and found this mod for the G2 which requires editing the snd_soc_msm_taiko. So I tried that and to my surprise it works. What I did was copy the file using root explorer to my sd card and then edited using a text editor on my pc due to file being to large for root explorer. Copied to directory and fixed permissions and after a reboot noticed the difference. Anyways more info is available on the following link --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442883. Make sure you thank them if this helps you.
