[Magisk][Mod] Boost Headphone Jack Volume - OnePlus 6 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hey guys!
So I wrote up this post over on the XDA Portal on how to increase the headphone jack volume on the OnePlus 6. I then realised when I updated my device that that change had reset. As a result, I spent a couple of minutes putting together a Magisk module to make that change for you. It works for every OOS version released so far. Just download it below, install it in Magisk and you're good to go! It should work on custom ROMs, but I haven't tried that yet.

I have also made a module which enables acervenky's stereo speaker modification too.

Let me know if there are any issues

Works like a charm!
Could you make another one with the value at 95

Sure thing! I'm out at the moment but I'll be sure to do it later. I'll label them in the post

Why dont't you upload it to magisk itself?

Can you make a version that works with the latest stereo speakers mod (v3) ?

sorry
how can i remove OP6-Stereo_Magisk_Headphone_Jack this mod!

Okay so it did work for me, but it only works for YouTube, not for the stuff downloaded. Whenever I play downloaded music from my music player, it doesn't sound loud, rather it sounds the same. Is there any way that I can increase the volume from my music player?

Is there anything you could do about the Bluetooth volume? That would be really appreciated mate. Thanks!

Morning, when I try to download the file on my OnePlus 6 it's saying it's an unsupported file type

This really sucks because I have the same problem. I'm using a systemless root with Magisk and I can't directly edit the mixer path file without it reverting. Likewise, I'm unable to load this .zip file in Magisk because it says unsupported file. Any idea how I'm supposed to get this working? I'd really like to see if adjusting this to 90 would help drive my B&O H6 headphones!

This would be great, Bluetooth headphone users don't get the flar2 gain control so we can only alter volume with v4a, which doesn't output enough imo

Thank you brooooooo this world great! :highfive:

Why don't just use V4A FX? it will loud all system volume, you can choose between headphones and speaker and can perform every changes or just loud up the volume...just a suggestion

Guy's, just rename name of the file, for example boost.zip and everything is fine, flashing on magisk work like a charm.

Doesn't work on havoc rom latest version 13/11 bootloop

Because v4a isnt systemwide. It breaks on notifications without another magisk module to patch that, and the gain is limited, and the effects arent reliable, they tend to randomly do "Processing: No"

Its systemwide in a Sense, but not really, There is audio ducking on notifications, hence the module "notification_helper remover"
And v4a hasnt Been updated in years, only some People modded the ui and Called it new, unfortunatley There hasnt Been anything touched in v4a's processing in years

Auto gain control

Hey guys. As I've mentioned in other posts I have an issue with the newer android builds because they have an audio limiter/compressor/auto gain control built in which greatly reduces the output of the headphone jack making it hard to get good volume from whatever you plug it into and also making the built in speaker do weird things. Anyways I may have found a possible fix but I have no idea how to use these commands in the link. Can somebody please explain how these work? Thanks in advance!

i am not a dev but it seems to be something that applications can use to normalize input from the mic
so i dont think this is related to audio output from mp3 files

Are you familiar with the limiter I speak of? Like when there a soft spot in the music and then hits a loud spot the limiter kicks it down. As an audiophile this is driving me nuts trying to find a way to turn it off lol. Have any ideas? Maybe it's located in build.prop?

its not the build.prop but if you want to play with configure files, you could go into /system/etc there are some conf related to audio there and some more in /system/etc/parameter-frameworks

although if you want to make your tablet look like a Nexus 7 for compatiblities with more apps in the play store u can edit the build.prop for that

[MOD] Volume Boosting Sound Mod | For VZW Galaxy S4 Lollipop

I love me some Lollipop but it was way to quiet!!!
I modded the stock files from latest LOLLIPOP update. I was tiered of waiting for someone else to do it. So, I figured I would share.
This will only work if...
1. You have root on Verizon S4 with Lollipop
2. You have @Chainfire- Flashfire app installed so you can flash this zip file.
I have included stock sound files if you want to go back..
Flashable Volume boost (not to loud)
Flashable Revert to Stock Volume levels
Galaxy S4 VZW Only. Have not tested on any other devices.
To Flash:
1. Open the FlashFire app and agree to the Terms and Conditions.
2. Press (+) twice to bring up the “Actions” menu.
3. Select “Flash ZIP or OTA” then locate and select the sound-boost-lp.zip. Make certain that “Auto-mount” is unchecked then press the checkmark to continue.
4. Press the lightning bolt then “ok” to begin the flashes. The screen will turn black then display the contents of your system before beginning the flash. Once complete your device will reboot. Done!
Not responsible for you if you flash on something other than what I built this for. And if you do flash it on said device,then I am still not responsible as this is all a risk..
Before flashing any mods you should always make a backup!
I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293133
Thanks to: @jovy23
Great job @joebrady119 ! Makes a Huge difference!
I chose not to flash thru FlashFire. I just extracted the files in ES File Explorer, copy and pasted to /system/etc/snd_soc_msm, and set permissions.
Good deal. Thanks.
Will this affect BT volume as well? <crosses fingers>
My biggest issue is w/BT headset volume.
Thanks!
---------- Post added at 05:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------
Also - why are there two copies of each zip file in the OP for download? They each appear to be the same two files going to the same directory. Am I missing something?
Thanks!
EDIT: Really odd - in the XDA app I only see one of each file. Here in Chrome on my PC I see two of each zip.
---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------
I pushed the files and set permissions and rebooted, and don't think I hear any difference in volume on my BT headset. So maybe this mod won't help w/that volume. I thought I had heard that back when I used this mod on my S4 running JB...

@Redflea I'm in the same boat. I was hoping that this mod would end my quest :fingers-crossed: I've tried everything including V4A. I just can't seem to find something that will increase the core BT volume. With V4A I'm able to increase the bass, clarity and play with the equalizer but it seems I need to do this for songs with bass and songs without bass; it's just not cutting it. I'll keep on searching for something that allows BT audio gain and I'll let you know if I find something.

It is frustrating....I'm kinda surprised that we don't have a sharp Android dev who's figured this out.
Don't mean to thread hijack, won't post on this further here...this claims BT volume increase: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2769799 In the LG forum, and only working on AOSP for Lollipop at the moment.
Thanks again to OP for this mod!

[GUIDE] [ROOT] Install ViPER4Android on Nougat

I heard that there is a lot of confusion about installing ViPER4Android on Nougat. After searching around the web i found a way to do it ^_^ It should work on all Nougat build released until now. Last test on N4F26J
First of all unistall any previous ViPER4Android app.
Requirements:
Root
TWRP
SuperSU 2.78 or higher
BusyBox 1.24.2 or higher installed in \su\xbin
Installation:
Flash ViPER4Android_2.5.0.5_guitardedhero.zip in TWRP
Go to vendor\etc and remove/rename audio_effects.conf using any file manager with root access (ex. Root Browser)
Open ViPER4Android app and install driver (Grant root permission). (It could freeze for a few seconds, just be patient!)
Reboot
Disable MusicFX app
Reboot
Done :3
I hope this will help you
Thanks to guitardedhero for the modified zip file
EDIT: fixed google drive link
ElementalX kernel not required. Thanks for the guide.... Enjoy
Works on stock?

Magisk + V4A Add-on is how I use it flash those in twrp and then install v4a apk no editing system partition and you can install ota updates then just boot twrp and flash magisk again
I want to know if its working system wide.
viper4android saying not enable and not processing....anyone with the same issue?
for me its only working in compatible mode.. anyone else?
Did not completely work for me. At first when i did the procedure everything was ok,driver installed neon,ok. But when i played native audio or pandora no difference. Also when i plugged in my Fiio K1 DAC it change to not supported abnormal. Tried clean installing into system 3x, edidtin,deleting, the file in vendor. No luck, maybe we just have to wait a bit longer, rom used is Purenexus. Also when i did it,i already had the drive installed.....
---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------
UPDATE:
So i did get it working, but i used the Viper 6.01 that guitar user posted in the nexus 5x forum.
Works with only Headphone jack,
NOT with usb out. When using USB out it just dosent work.
Also for some reason my pandora now keeps crashing
BUT IT WORKS, so i think ill keep it. Ill leave the DAC/AMP at home for my laptop, and use the viper limiter at maximum and just up the bass a bit.
All i wanted was to get the bass higher with out maximizing the volume.
Id suggest using arise, it's way better than stock Viper
If I may make a suggestion that will ultimately save you a lot of grief, move to the updated ARISE sound mod by guitardedhero and others. The latest is deuteronomy 2.x and, as opposed to the tweaks, futzing and issues of sound being processed/sticking or not, this is a much simpler install and just works.
Head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709 and just install the base version. You'll get Viper4ARISE. I still flash a permissive kernel zip with my Nougat ROMs, but since I switched to ARISE, V4A has worked flawlessly, and it sounds even better than the old V4A from this thread.
It also removes MusicFX with the install process and I haven't had to disable/remove the audio_effects.conf file either.
Lastly, I'm not sure development is continuing on the base V4A anyway. ARISE is the way to modify your Android sound processing now.

You don't need to AFAIK and it isn't a kernel. V4A used to need SELinux permissive to run, but stock and most custom kernels run enforcing. I just mentioned that I flash a permissive mod out of habit FYI. You are likely better off going to the A.R.I.S.E. threads to discuss issues.

Just flashed Deuteronomy 2.1 (non classic) on my nexus 6P. After enabling V4Arise and enabling speaker optimization, the phone speaker sound is actually worse than stock, more muted across range. I haven't tried headphones yet. kinda disappointed. My advice: V4A is overhyped. just keep stock sound.

Sorry, but you clearly haven't tested anything at all yet. Speaker optimization isn't that great and yes it mutes it, but that's to avoid the pop and tinny issues with many phone speakers. However, if you use that, then play with the EQ and other settings, you may surprise yourself. That would require more than a 5 second evaluation though.
Have you tried the EQ presets or customized them? What about dynamic sound or the various compressions? How about any number of things most people would play around with before writing something off? These types of tweaks are, after all, the point of a sound mod with a detailed EQ.
Since you admit you haven't even tried headphones, let alone bluetooth and haven't played with the EQ at all, it may just be a wee bit early to pronounce it a failure. And ... the VAST majority of people who use it would disagree.

Exactly. If regular people have to spend hours or days to tweak the settings what's the good? I wish it's the install and forget type of app.

Hours or days? It takes me a few minutes of playing on a fresh install until I hit what I like. Plus, you can save your settings as a profile. However, it's clear from your responses that you can't be bothered to actually test it. If you have a home stereo, you play around with EQ until you like it. If you listen to music in your car, you set treble and bass, balance and other things. This is no different. How on earth a sound app that, at its heart is an EQ, could be set and forget BEFORE YOU INSTALL IT is beyond me. That's not even the purpose of it. If that's what you want, then you're not looking for a sound mod. The entire point of a sound mod / EQ is to allow people to adjust the sound to their preference for their hardware and listening preferences/context.

ultyrunner is absolutely correct here. The criticisms you have leveled against this project would be considered rude (and a bit ignorant) even if you actually had a solid point to make, or some evidence to back it up. As it stands, you don't have either, and asking a question like "What's the point of installing it if you have to do all the work yourself in that department? I'm not an audio engineer..." is just unthinkable. People specifically poured blood, sweat, and tears into this thing for that exact reason... so that people who aren't engineers can improve their experience via the developer's knowledge. Either you were just being flippant about "having to do all the work yourself" and you don't actually mean that - in which case it would have been preferable for you to just say "thank you but I am having a few problems," et cetera, and be on your way...OR you do actually think you're doing all the work, which is a smack in the face to a developer... a developer whose work you very obviously do not grasp the complexity of, nor the amount of time and effort required to produce said work. Don't bash people's work if you haven't yet evaluated it properly, and most especially make an effort to understand it at a high level before you complain (if you really need to complain at all, which you don't).
I'm sorry, but if I was the developer, seeing a comment/comments like these would be enough for me to close down the project ASAP. And I'm not just pulling that out of my ass, I've been through five or six phones and development communities here on XDA, and I have seen exactly that happen on more than one occasion.
And that's the problem with XDA. People take things to personally. This isn't a forum for babies. We're allowed to express our opinions and concerns here, believe he or not.

LineageOS - jack

Hello,
After install LineageOS on a2017g it's not possible to work headphones, even jack/plug in doesnt show on the os, only on audio fx. Do you know any solution for this? The speaker works very well.
Any help...

By default the icon is hidden, which can be enabled via Settings>Status Bar. As far as the sound go, you might have to do a factory reset or a clean flash.

[MAGISK] Working (stock) EMUI sound-mod

Install "Ainur JamesDSP v1.7" Magisk module and choose the HQ 64bit driver
Install "Audio Modification Library v.1.8.1" Magisk module
Reboot
Configure JamesDSP app
Confirmed working (speakers & headphones (can't test bluetooth)) on my FIG-LX1 (L31) - EMUI 8.0.0.148(C432) - Magisk v17.1
Edit: If you don't want ringtones/notification-sounds to be processed, switch DSP registration from global to conventional. (3dot menu - top right, screenshot added)
Huge thanks to natanrosenfeld (he made a YT video, explaining a fix for previous version (now fixed with v1.7)) - and especially the JamesDSP dev team!
Great news I seen it on .android-hilfe.de myself
Messing around and cant seem to get it right, either too loud or doesnt work
Viper4android was much easier to setup, using Huawei DTS.irs or srs_2_1.irs then not much else and worked great

Have you tried using the same impulse response files with JamesDSP?
Copy the .irs (or .wav, .flac) to /storage/emulated/0/JamesDSP/Convolver and enable Convolver in JamesDSP.
Works great here.

Have you tried using the same impulse response files with JamesDSP?
Copy the .irs (or .wav, .flac) to /storage/emulated/0/JamesDSP/Convolver and enable Convolver in JamesDSP.
Works great here.

Can you send screenshot of what you have, not sure on other settings

Even if we'd share the exact same setup (e.g. settings/IR xy sound great with my Shure SE425 in-ear headphones, but not so great with my AKG Q701) and preference of music, it would still be incredibly subjective and mainly based on taste. Certified sound-engineers would probably disagree, I guess
My suggestion is: leave every (other) option off, download a pack of different IRs (e.g. https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/collection-convolver-samples-389-t3140299) and try each one out. If you found one you like, (slightly) tune it with the EQ. At least that's my "non-pro" approach.
Mostly all I want is to make the phone louder, well the phone speaker, on Bluetooth speakers etc it's fairly OK
Next issue is echo sound on ringtone and notification
I'll try IRS out and maybe someday have Viper4android
It's a system-wide audio-mod, so yes, if you have e.g. Virtual Room Effect turned on or use a noticably "reverberating" impulse response file, you'll experience echo on ringtones/notification-sounds too.
I've managed to make the speakers slightly louder by choosing the highest IR Volume Level (30dB), but I think the device's speaker volume level/overall sound-quality is just physically limited. They are not the "best" speakers after all.

I noticed the room effect and turned it off, but just using Irs or some of them and seemed to be an echo,
Speaker is good enough, it is only a phone after all, there are small bluetooth speakers now that have great volume to help
A nice guy from the Telegram channel pointed out, that you can avoid processing system sounds (ringtones/notification) by switching DSP registration mode from global to conventional (screenshot added to OP).
YEEEES!!!! This mod is also working on Huawei P20Pro with EMUI8.1.. I just follow the same steps above. Thanks a lot man!

Install "Ainur JamesDSP v1.7" Magisk module and choose the HQ 64bit driver
Install "Audio Modification Library v.1.8.1" Magisk module
Reboot
Configure JamesDSP app
Confirmed working (speakers & headphones (can't test bluetooth)) on my FIG-LX1 (L31) - EMUI 8.0.0.148(C432) - Magisk v17.1
Edit: If you don't want ringtones/notification-sounds to be processed, switch DSP registration from global to conventional. (3dot menu - top right, screenshot added)
Huge thanks to natanrosenfeld (he made a YT video, explaining a fix for previous version (now fixed with v1.7)) - and especially the JamesDSP dev team!

Hi do you know if I can change mixer path values without root and using adb on pc? , I'm trying to raise volume of WhatsApp calls, calls and maybe a bit of loud speaker volume but I'm trying to avoid root etc. Thanks any advice would be appreciated or a link to tutorials. I'm on psmart. Thanks again

Sorry - I'm not an expert, so don't take my word for it - but I don't think that's possible, since all these files are stored in locations, where (non root) users don't have write permissions. Even with a rooted and/or custom recovery device, I don't think it's possible to alter app-specific volumes by just changing mixer_paths.xml values.

Sorry I know I mentioned whats app but really I just mean overall volume. With my moto g5 I was able to edit mixer path values which led to louder everything. But that was only with root as I'm new to adb. Thanks for your response

In case your bootloader is unlocked, iirc you could theoretically fastboot flash TWRP - and use TWRP's "privileged" terminal (e.g. (mount /system), adb pull/push and edit the file(s)), and then (re)flash stock recovery again - without actually rooting the device.
Again, I'm not an expert (also didn't try it myself) and can't guarantee above mentioned procedure works, despite my inner-Sherlock-Holmes tells me, your bootloader is actually not unlocked.

Yeah still locked dude, tried DC unlocker but they refunded as I'm on latest security patch and admitted there is nothing they can do right now.
