MS Voice Command Volume

I have just started using ms voice comand, but the volume is very low
I have looked about and done a reg hack to change
HKEY Current User - Control panel - Sound Catagories - Voice Command -
Change:
Attenuation Catagory - Value 1
InitVol - Value 3
and also tried
HKEY Current User - Control panel - Sound Catagories - Voice Command -
Change:
Attenuation Catagory - Value 2
InitVol - Value 8
but neither of these make it any louder
anyone using voice command, that has been able to fix this on a diamond?
I am only using it on the speaker and not a bt headset
Also i noticed that the speach is not as clear as cyberon VC, as it is alot faster. But i prefer the features of MSVC with regards reading the email subjects and caller id

7. *Adjusting Volume of Announcements -* There are two values that seem to influence the volume of announcements. They are stored within the following key:
*HKCU\Control Panel\Sound Categories\Voice Command1*
The values are:
*AttenutationCategory*
*InitVol*
There are apparently different default setting based on your device. In general the values are generally around 1-4 for *AttenuationCategory* and 1-5 for *InitVol*. Some research shows that setting *InitVol* to 40 and *AttenuationCategory* to 1 provide the best results. In my testing I have found the *InitVol* to do nothing. The *AttenuationCategory* definitely does something, it seems the lower the number the lower the voice. When set it to 0 the announcements were very faint. Setting it higher made them higher, although I can't say that anything over 4 or 5 got any louder.
In my findings I would say set both of these to 5 (I have read some other posts that lead me to believe setting InitVol over 5 is pointless, in addition, the posts that recommend setting it to 40 don't specify if that is decimal or hex).
Got this out of the Kaiser Forum.

do i need to restart the device for these settings to become active?

What I do is shut the phone down...Power Button, and then take out the battery for a second or two, then I put the Battery back in and start it back up. Some reg settings you change revert back when you just soft reset.

I would love to make voicecommand louder BUT i can't. I changed the values but the volume is still down....
How do i do???
Someone???
I read in one post that if I remove S2A, the voicecommand will be louder...but i still don't know how to remove S2A....
HEEEEEELLLLP!!!

The loudest volume level on HTS HD2 i got with:
indows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\InCallFeedback]
"AttenuationCategory"=dword:00000001
"InitVol"=dword:00000005
"DefaultSound"="\\Windows\\HTCTone\\Midi2Wave_079_4098.wav"
"Directory"="\\Windows\\"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce]
"Category"="InCallFeedback"
"Sound"="\\Application Data\\Volatile\\\\TTSCallerID.wav"
"Script"="p"
Not tested on BT headset yet.

[Q] Increase vibration intensity

delete

Why on earth would you want to increase the vibration intensity? My phone gives me mini heart attacks every time it vibrates on a table. But to answer your question, it's quite easy. You have a create an init.d script that changes the vibrator module's voltage. I'll attach one I made, but it's made to decrease the voltage. Just open the file in notepad++ or something and change the number after "echo" to something higher. Then save it and copy the file to your init.d folder, set the proper permissions (I don't remember what they were exactly but just give it all permissions), and restart your phone. Once it starts up, you'll feel the vibration seems normal, give the phone a minute and it'll apply the vibration setting.
Also, remove the txt extension from the file, it should have no extension.

[Q] Volume Increase VIA Mixer Paths

was looking around mixer_paths.xml and i see it has changed from what i'm used to with the lg g2. i dont see a section that specifically has "headphones". i'm trying to increase the headphone volume. does anyone know which area of the mixer_paths needs to be changed to increase volume? i tried increasing "speaker and headphones" rx7 (because that's what was used to increase volume on the g2) but after a reboot i dont notice any increase. any help would be appreciated.

i figured it out. use a text editor that has root and navigate to system/etc. open up mixer_paths.xml. scroll down to the section "play scenario". in that section you'll see "path name="headset". in headset section you'll see rx1 and rx2 digital volume. change the values to what you want up to 100. i have mine at 88. at 88 i can keep the volume around 60% and it is loud with no distortion. so now i dont have to max out the DAC in the phone to get high volume.
if you want to do the speaker do the same steps above for the section "path name="speaker"" and change the rx7 digital volume value.
hope this helps others.

Let’s face it. Even at max volume, sometimes the speaker on your phone just isn’t loud enough (Yes, I’m looking at you Nexus 5). *However, you*could digitally raise the maximum volume that the speaker allows itself to go to. This will require a rooted android device and could run the risk of damaging your speakers if you go too high, so be warned.
What You will Need:
A rooted Android DeviceES File Explorer
Step 1: Mounting the System
Open up ES file explorer and enable the root explorer. *Then tap on the root explorer tab and a menu will pop up. *Select the Mount R/W tab and mount both*system and /*as*r/w.
[http://www]*[http://www]*[http://www]
Step 2: Locating the mixer_paths.xml
Now, navigate to*/System/etc*and open up the*mixer_paths.xml*with ES note editor. *Before you start making changes, go up into the settings and select*edit*on the file.
[http://www]
Step 3: Changing the Speaker Volume
To change the speaker volume, look for the line*RX7 Digital Volume*under the*Path name= Speaker*and change the value to whatever you desire. *(Going over 95 has the potential of blowing your speaker though).
[http://www]
Step 4: Changing the Headphone Volume
To change the headphone volume, *look for the lines:
<ctl name=”HPHL Volume” /
<ctl name=”HPHR Volume” />
Change the values to 20. *Don’t go beyond 20. *You can also change the RX1 and RX2 values to something like 85, once again, don’t go beyond 95.
[http://www]
Afterwards,*reboot*and you should notice an increase in volume. *Feel free to play around with the other volume settings found in the mixer_paths.xml, just make sure you have a backup and not to blow out your speaker! Android Boost speaker volume success!

[FIX] Experiencing low sound in calls ?

I am experiencing low sound in calls after latest update 4.0.3 . Any fixes available ?

Guys after looking into some threads , i got something useful . my call volume is fixed .
Download BuildProp Editor by JRummy on the Google Play Store and open it up. Tap on the “pencil” icon in the top right to bring up the manual editing mode. Scroll all the way to the bottom and add either of the build.prop lines mentioned above and set it equal to the number of volume steps you want to have. For example, entering these two commands at the end will double the number of in-call volume steps and media volume steps respectively.
ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps=14
ro.config.media_vol_steps=30
Once you’ve entered these commands, reboot your phone. If it worked, you should now have as many volume steps as you specified in build.prop.

Thanks for this post. I suffered from annoying low in call volume on my previous device so know how irritating it can be, especially when making calls in busy areas, like a road with heavy traffic. I've only had this device for a few days and since getting it have been away in an area where there is next to no mobile signal so I have not taken or received any calls.
Question
What you have written would seem to suggest that the prop changes would increase the number of volume steps that are applicable for each volume type, but, does does this really alter the actual maximum volume setting? if not then I can't see that this is a fix.

The code is like this
// Initialize volume
int maxVolume = SystemProperties.getInt("ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps",
MAX_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_VOICE_CALL]);
if (maxVolume != MAX_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_VOICE_CALL]) {
MAX_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_VOICE_CALL] = maxVolume;
AudioSystem.DEFAULT_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_VOICE_CALL] = (maxVolume * 3) / 4;
}
maxVolume = SystemProperties.getInt("ro.config.media_vol_steps",
MAX_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_MUSIC]);
if (maxVolume != MAX_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_MUSIC]) {
MAX_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_MUSIC] = maxVolume;
AudioSystem.DEFAULT_STREAM_VOLUME[AudioSystem.STREAM_MUSIC] = (maxVolume * 3) / 4;
}
i think it alters the max volume but i am not sure but my low call volume is definitely fixed . I just added the lines which i mentioned above.

Testing on my Mi A1, now I have to wait to receive a call. (*Insert a Forever Alone Meme)
EDIT: It changes the number of incremental steps, but the maximum volume remains the same.

Does this fix work on latest OxygenOS betas? There was a TWRP flashable zip before but not sure if it works still.

just clean the speaker grill.

Already cleant the speaker grill. Need the volume to be boosted

volume fix

Flashable zip worked on nugatt but not work in oreo since tasha mixer files are in different localization, you need to manual change values in tasha_miser_paths.xml in system/vendor/etc root folder.
I can send you my edited file.

magisk module named "low in call volume fix oneplus 3/3t for RR" not sure if the name is exactly the same but just type "low in" and the module should show up. Tho its for RR i use it on beta 25 and the issue is fixed ! :good:

Increasing the volume steps in root\System\build.prop didn't change the output volume for me.
I solve this issue by modifying a single parameter in "root"\system\vendor\etc\mixer_paths_mtp.xml
(https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/how-to-modify-ear-speaker-volume-mi-a1-t3779866)
Best regards.

Fixed it by editing the RX0-RX8 Digital Volume values from 84 to 94 in mixer_paths_tasha.xml file found in /vendor/etc folder and it works! Now I keep the call volume 1-2 levels lower than full. Tried it on OxygenOS beta 24. Thanks for the help everyone.
