I don't usually post stuff like this, but I had a heck of a time trying to fix the sound issues I was having in all the custom ROMs I had tried. The problems I had were very low volumes through the headset and especially BT audio. I also had a whine coming from the speakerphone during calls. I thought I was going to have to go back to a stock ROM, but after an hour or two of experimentation I came up with an snd_soc_msm file that fixes all sound issues. It's basically a direct copy from a stock ROM (to increase the volume) with a modified "Speaker" volume to eliminate the whine.

So... Is it alive? Working? Good solution? Thanks
It works on CM10. Speaker now is much louder and clearer like on stock JB

Nicely done. Is there a way to get the headset volume higher? I use my phone in my car for music and for it to get as loud as I am wanting I have to have the volume all the way up on my phone and the volume on the stereo about 7/8 of the way up. I hate doing that and would like to just have a louder output signal.
If it is just a couple of values to adjust please let me what to look for and I have no problem doing so at my own risk.
Thank you

Yeah search for all of the ":6" or ":7" values and change those to something higher. I wouldn't go much higher though, and who knows what it would do to the internal amp. Also, if you're able to get the volume you want at 7/8 consider yourself lucky. I have to go all the way on my car stereo and it's only barely acceptable.

Thank you, I am just glancing through here and I do see a lot of value's with those two in them. Given that everything else on my phone sounds fine I am a little hesitant to raise every one of them. Do you think you could help me isolate the one that would specifically be for headphone audio out? I will raise it but just searching for those brings up way more then I believe need to be adjusted.
Thanks

That's all I would do. That's what I had to do to figure out which one to bring down to fix the speaker whine.
Edit: misread your statement. Basically you want to just do one at a time and see if it works.
Okay, man. Thank you and I will probably start going through them this evening. I am trying to figure out a way to have a controlled test so I know for sure which one it is. If I only do a little bit of each one it would be easy to mistakenly assume that it is the wrong one. I need a way of gauging my audio output to a speaker.... humm???

So I am messing around with this and am just using notepad++ I am wondering what file format would I save the file as once I have made changes? I dont think that a normal .txt is the right file type. Also, would I be able to just replace the original file using root explorer and a reboot or would I have to make it a flashable file? If it has to be flashed in CWM how would I compress it so that it is recognized by CWM?
Thanks in advance.

There is no file extension (linux doesn't care about this as much as windows). You can just drop it in with root explorer and then reboot.

Awesome, thank you. I will post back with any possible changes that I may find helpful.
Thanks again.
Well after messing around for a bit I did manage to get the sound louder but I ran into a problem. It seems like the internal amp kicks in and drops it all the way down probably to prevent any damage from occuring. I just ended up hoping all of the 6's to 7's. That's raises all of the Ringers and external volumes up to something a little more alerting.

Hi!
I love my Diamond, but it has one big problem - I wasn't able to hear it in noisy environments. I realized, that poor sound is somehow related with AudioPara3.csv file in Windows directory. I made some tests with this file and whoaaa... my phone is quite louder now. Now I wish to share it with you. Unzip the file, overwrite the old file with the new one in the Windows folder (make backup before) and soft reset the device. You must hear the difference..
I didn't test your file yet, I m sure it maye help, but I made some tests with CorePlayer by change the equalizer parameters and got little bit more volume but with distortion ,seems like the main problem is the speaker itself....
didn't hear any difference

AudioPara3.csv file contains volume and gain values for speaker and microphone. I've tested it, and by raising volume values to the maximum - nothing happened, by raising gain values to the maximum- volume is louder. IMO this is maximum, that Diamond's poor speaker can produce. I am satisfied with it, maybe someone can do more tests and get better result.
Btw, all sounds are louder now: ringtone, speakerphone, system volume, music playback, etc.

I tried this and it really sounds like massive quality loss. This has to be tweaked much more.
Thanks, will give it a try, as I just need little more volume from speakers.
Thanks! Will try this out. If it works out well I would love to see this tweak/fix implemented in some cooked ROM's ^^
EDIT: This works out great! A bit load sometimes, and I can't lower the volume, but atleast I hear the phone ringing now
Well i tested it , and it works .
Really loud ! , i had to lower the volume again ..
Nice work !.
Thanks tripp! It really works! I use it with SRS WOW in which gives my Diamond the loudest sound it ever had
This is awesome thanks a million.

I don't have distortion problem. It is quite suitable for me.
mine is actually too loud, even on the lowest setting people around me can hear my conversation. can I use the same procedure to accomplish the opposite?
Excellent....
Definately looks like an enhancement worth carrying to the ACT and Diamond Tweaks...well done!

Yes, it may be a hardware defect or maybe the grate is dirty.
Still, how can we raise the volume?
I know there is one way thru the hidden menu, but not sure on the details.
I think it's not a hardware failure, but maybe the grail is dirty i don't know, but still I hope that someone has a solution to crack the volume up... A booster app or something in the system files. Anyone ?
I don't know, maybe alsamixer?

I have a similar issue with out-going volume being too low when wearing headphones.
I've reduced mic sensitivity but raised the volume and boosted other volumes as well, including the loudspeaker and earpiece volumes.
Rename the default snd file (/system/etc/snd_soc_msm) and replace it with the one contained within the first TAR attached to this post, making sure it has the same ownership and permissions applied as the renamed original, then reboot and test.
Note: If you still experience the annoying whistle during speakerphone calls with the first mod, try the second and finally the third for the more sensitive of devices.
Alternatively, you can flash the ZIP in recovery, which also enables PSM in custom ROMs and replaces the shutter/focus camera sounds with more realistic ones. The ZIP is what I flash after updating CM, hence the name. The ZIP contains the first mod of the snd file, so unpack it and replace that file with the second or third one if necessary to make your own custom flashable ZIP.
Thanks a lot for this!
Can you please exactly tell what parameters have you changed?
I'd like to know this, because in every "boosted" snd_soc_msm I think that mic is too bosted and everytime I record something with a recorder (I use the phone to record songs with my band at rehearsals) the result is always overdriven. This doesn't happen with stock ROM.
Thanks in advance for the reply.
elb0wf4ce said:
I can't post in the development section yet, so thought I'd share my own fix/workaround here. The file is smaller than the original as I've cleaned it up somewhat and removed unnecessary and inconsistant disable entries. This modified version also has higher mic volumes for video recording and boosted volumes elsewhere too.
This fix works on the latest nightly with the long-awaited kernel update. Just rename the default snd file (/system/etc/snd_soc_msm) and replace it with this one, making sure it has the same ownership and permissions applied as the original.

The mics (DEC4/6) for video recording (Camcorder Tx) have been raised from 66% to 68%. Have you tested video recording already or are you just asking in case you need to experiment?
The bottom mic (DEC6) in two sections for calls has been reduced from 66% volume to 64% to fix the whistle. Any higher and the whistle returns. Also, if the loudspeaker is set any higher than 72% the whistle returns.
Thank you very much! this done the trick!
I only tested it in audio recording. Haven't tried with video.
How is in % loudspeaker volume in stock and in your release?

The original loudspeaker volume was 68%, which was far too low for my needs. I raised all of the RX volumes from 68% to 72%. RX1 is the earpiece volume and that benefits from the boost as it can be hard to hear people in a busy town centre, even with the earpiece against your ear when the volume is only 68%. I think either CM10.1 or CM10.2 had the loudspeaker volume set at 73%, but currently the CM default is 71%.

It's a weird issue. Previous fixes that worked for other users didn't work for me, so that's why I came up with my own solution. I'm gonna try a few more things like changing ADCx values as they relate to sensitivity.
P.S. Did you reboot after replacing your default snd file?
same for me in the past all the fixes that worked for others didn't for me only fix that definitely fixed whistle for me is the one by rimmer1966 in his aosp that was also merged in omni.. he described the solution in his thread.. (disabled one mic during calls)

Only the bottom mic is used, even during speakerphone calls. Did he swap them around? Anyway, try my new mod of the default snd file from CM11 in the OP. I've reduced mic sensitivity but raised the volume. My test recordings are a bit louder and cleaner I think.
it doesn't work either.. ;(
I am now using the one from omni with carbon rom, and it seems that fixes the whistle.. but I will confirm later because sometimes the whistle comes back so I want to be sure!
btw, maybe you can start editing the omni's file to have a non-whistiling base and then try to improve volume levels?
because with the omni file for example, there is no whistle, but the volume during calls through the speaker is very very low ;(
bye!

Yes, reducing the loudspeaker volume can eliminate the whistle if the mic settings are tweaked slightly, but anything below 72% speaker volume isn't ideal for me. I did tests months ago watching streaming TV and such outside and it wasn't great below that level, so I learned to live with somewhat low mic volume instead.
Try these mods attached below. Download the one with '71' in the name first, then try the other with '70' in the name if you suffer feedback still.

I've attached the louder version you wanted to try out. I'm pretty sure you'll suffer from whistle feedback with the speaker volume at 73%, though.
at last i found some time to go back to aosp based and try your mods
now I'm on plain aosp by rimmer + your 71 mod.. everything is OK so far! good speaker volume and no whistle
in the past i had the whistle coming back after some time so i will keep testing it and report but so far so good thank you!
I've tried Omni/CM with your mod and loudspeaker volume is good. Also, there's no whistle problem.
Unfortunately, I dunno why, but with AOSP based ROM for Xperia T, I always have problems when I record from a very high volume sources (such as disco, or concerts): the sound is so distorted that you can't hear anything. With stock ROM, no problem.

You have to unpack the .gar.gz archive with this for example. You must not rename the original. You can also copy it to sdcard, just to have a backup ?
After unpacking the .gar.gz overwrite the original snd_soc_msm with the unpacked one. Give the correct permissions (rw r r) and reboot

Must not rename the original why? It causes no issues whatsoever, or else I wouldn't have written it in the OP. By renaming the original users can make sure the ownership and permissions match.

I generally don't have an issue with the volume levels on my turbo.. but there is one area where I find it lacking.. with headphones in, some of my music just doesn't go loud enough in certain situations. I have tried a few nice pairs of earbuds and most of them I have this problem. I've also occasionally run into this problem with an output to speakers. I wouldn't have to raise it much, which is good because I would prefer not to deteriorate sound quality.. but a slight increase would be perfect.
I saw a couple other threads with similar questions but didn't really see a good solution.. now that we have root, has any utilized any system tweaks to accomplish this successfully?

1. Use a root browser to open /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml
2. Figure out which values correspond to the headphones volume.
3. Increase those values and save the file.
Also, I've found that CM-based roms are much louder than stock-based roms, so you could just flash one of those.

Thanks for the advice.. I don't think I'll be flashing any roms of my own for my turbo anytime soon.. I like the stock feel and am happy performing my own system tweaks.

Google or trial and error. It's a pretty well-known and ubiquitous build.prop mod, so you'll probably be able to find it with some digging.
If youre like me and you like listening to your music with good headphones and want to feel that bass rumble in your head, you might have noticed that with the update to 6.0 (In my case to B565) the output volume might have gone down considerably and that now the max volume isnt just enough to make you eargasm. So i researched a lot and found out that the max volume settings are set in some .xml files located in /etc and /system/etc but the thing is that with huawei phones we dont just have to edit a single .xml file to raise our max volume, we have to edit a whole crap ton of them depending on our region, vendor, model etc.... So instead of having to open all those files and edit just the correct string, i found out that AlsaMixer (Available on google play) works just fine with out devices!! I also found out that the max output on 6.0 is stuck at 80% dont know why.
So, to get your 20% of max volume up, all you have to do is open AlsaMixer (or all those other .xml files if you like doing things the hard way ) and edit the lines:
-HISSC_SMT_HSL_GAIN (this is left headphone gain)
-HISSC_SMT_HSR_GAIN (this is right headphone gain)
Their default value will be 12, just go ahead and set that value to 15 which is the max value and enjoy your new volume
NOTE: There are tons of other strings you can edit to increase output of speaker, earpiece, etc...etc... but since I didnt need to increase these I didnt take the time to find out their variables, but if youre interested on increasing the speaker volume just open the .xml files and go to speaker and find the gain variable and change it with Alsa.
Hope I made your day

So looking into AlsaMixer, this is an app for a rooted device. Is there any alternative methods? I just got my phone finally back up and going again after an IMEI loss and am a little scared to do anything further in the system like that.
Also the fact that the description on AlsaMixer doesn't say anything about supporting MM... Has the had any issues for you?

I dont think there are any other *effective* methods out there that dont imply rooting your device or something of that behaviour sorry. And yes it does support it, at least for me even though it says nothing.
Not a worry... I'll just have to build the courage up to rootmy device :/ ah well. Thanks for responding so soon

I think you can, but have to find the proper string for speaker

Exactly, you have to find the string for the speaker. (Be careful though because you could cause damage to the speaker)
which is the line for speaker gain?

You solved what? We already know about dolby atmos, but this is different.
Yes Dolby Atmos gets a little better sound quality than stock. But it doesnt boost output volume in any way or form. For that the only thing that works is editing the ALSA setting but for the speaker I dont know which string you have to edit because as i said im not interested in listening music through my phone speaker, i was just interested in boosting the volume from the headphones which I thought were too low. Anyhow I discourage everyone who wants to boost their speaker higher than stock, as this phones speaker sounds pretty high, even too high sometimes and you could risk damaging the speaker or braking it.

is it even possible to boost without root? i guess not. but app can probably deliver higher sound.
for root users theres usually a xml file in system/etc i can't tell which one it is since i'm first time huawei user but if u got root why not use viper4android it boosts the volume like
I would like to boost the volume only for my headphones. Which xml files should I edit? I am thinking of using a file explorer to edit the values on OP for this.
Thanks in advance.
Use the playback music controls xposed module.Its awesome and you can also change tracks using volume buttons if you like. The autoplay option is in the settings.
I've found out how to boosz permanently, I guess... System/etc/audio/hissc/mixer_paths_ALICE.xml
Open it with a text editor, and change HISSC_SMT_HSL_GAIN + HISSC_SMT_HSR_GAIN from 12 to 15.

Hello, it's not so safely but it's working but you need to edit the sames files but the one with R too, few lines after (left/right).
