Nougat Audio adjustments - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all. Running stock Nougat,rooted with the ARISE mod flashed which is working. However, I can no longer find the "mixerpaths.xml" file that I used to tweak to output higher volume through the headset.I was able to do that on all 6.X ROMS. I have noticed with ARISE/Viper that the sound really comes alive at higher than stock volumes. Does anyone know what file needs o be adjusted to accomplish the same thing on Nougat?

The answer is no. RAM management comes from deep inside the source code, so you have to wait until those memory leaks are solved by either Google or less likely, Cyanogen. Android 5.1 is supposed to be better in that regard.

Thanks..
Then what is the use of Faux123 Kernel Pro or other Kernel Apps?
And does Xposed with Amplify help better battery backup?

1. Faux kernel app--
Helps in tweaking the various features of a custom kernel. And with a good enough customization, perfomance and battery life definitely goes up
Pss:*Not applicable on stock kernel*
2. Amplify app
An app which helps in blocking the various wake-locks which could prevent your phone from going into deep sleep and also increased battery consumption
Xposed framework is necessary for its functioning, and Yes, it does help in increasing battery life by blocking the wake-locks
*caution must be taken as tweaking and blocking all the wake-locks and alarms or services without proper knowledge could result in broken functionality and possibly boot-loop*
*same caution must be exercised with the faux-kenel app, or any other kernel tweaking apps, for that matter*
Hope that clears it for you
EDIT: I suggest this thread to clear up your questions regarding battery life on moto g2

Thanksa lot,
But I've one more doubt, when I installed xposed first from recovery, then installed apk. Then installed Amplify, but there is no call audio either incoming or outgoing. Installed Xposed in both Stock ROM & CM12 but same same problem no call audio.

Do you mean call audio via voip ie whatsapp, viber,hangouts etc.
If yes, there is a buildprop edit that fixes that problem

Other than that, regular calls are working fine for me

Regular calls has no audio?
So now i've installed Titan Prime V1.0.3, Installed Xposed via recvovery there is a storage space is running out notification.
Plus there is no regular call audio either incoming or outgoing after installing Xposed.

Thats strange, I never had problems with regular calls
And moreover installing xposed would never mess up calls
Did you install any audio mods such as viper4android?
Well then,
1. Try installing a stock LP, factory reset it and then installing titan over it.
2. Try formatting everything, I mean everything except sd card then installation as stated above
PS; Does audio work in titan prior to installing xposed . ?

Well, considering that xposed for LP is still at an alpha stage, I'd suggest you to wait till a more stable one is released.
Me being on cm12.1 do miss the xposed frameworks too.
Then only way out is to wait for now

Perfect I just use this and modify the build prompt. What exactly is the issue from? Is one mic dead and needs replacing thus using this work around or is it something separate to that?
This is a module for magisk. You need to flash that first before flashing this. If you found this thread somehow but don't know what magisk is, I suggest you read up on magisk first. This module modifies the build.prop so you don't need to, and persists through updates.
I'm not sure what the cause is, but it's the same or similar fix that many OPO owners have used.
I love you, really. This finally fixed my microphone issue on my Nexus 6P!
Will this also work on the oneplus 3 and oneplus 3t? I seem to have this mic issue on both 3 and 3t. Thanks.

It's untested but has been reported to work on other phones. There's no harm in trying, if you have issues just remove the module. Let me know if it works.
How does this work? After installing this module I checked the build.prop and it's still the same as before but somehow my mic is now working properly.

It doesn't change the build.prop file, only what value is loaded for the props at system startup. More info here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-details-dummies-to-developers-t3473486

Oh that is interesting. So I won't have to modify build.prop everytime I update. Thanks for the explanation.

No worries. That's one of the beautiful selling points of Magisk... If you've clean flashed an update, all you have to do is flash the Magisk zip and your modules and voila! All your mods (build.prop, replacing system sounds, debloating apps, moving apps to system, etc) are already done as soon as you boot up! If you do a dirty update all you probably have to do is flash Magisk again since your modules will still be in /data.
Updated for magisk 11.6
Changed name to Android Mic Fix
Which mic issue does this fix? I have phone/audio issues not sure if its connected.
Can't play audio sometimes as phone audio profile is active, would this fix that?

Hi @Nomelas , I have a OPO.
I've installed the module with Magisk and then I took a look at my build.prop. Nothing seems changed, is it normal?

Run getprop command in terminal. Your actual build.prop isn't updated because of the nature of Magisk.

Hi, so far I only found "it fixes mic issues". Maybe I'm being selectively blind, but could someone please state which mic issues this fixes?
I'm on HTC one M7 using the last lineage os before it was discontinued for M7, and I do suffer low mic output in calls, and the phone occasionally reboots if I switch speakerphone on during a call (weirdly only when maps is running navigation), but does this have anything to do with those "mic issues"?
Thanks, and please forgive my blindness if it's obvious!

yeah, test it out yourself. It fixes the low volume of your mic in calls.

I tested, but get instant reboot on initiating a call. Switching the module off in magisk made the phone behave normal again. Anything I can do to help track down the cause?

Unfortunately it's only been tested on a few devices. What device are you using?
EDIT: Nevermind, I see in your previous post: HTC one M7 using the last lineage os.
Ah so, I'm not sure what your issue is. It looks to be that because you would get reboots when switching to speakerphone in calls, this fix will only amplify that effect. Unfortunately I don't think I can be of any help to you. I'm sorry :/
I would suggest checking out the HTM M7 sub-forum for support in this case.

viper4droid not working

can any one tell me viper4droid is not working in my custom rom resurrection remix 6.0.it is in selinux permissive mode.in viper4droid i tried forcing it but nothing actually happens.I only able to use viper4droid setting but it does not change sound quality or u can say its not working when i off it or not no sound change.
The sound quality change is minimal really. Not even really noticeable. However, when you play with the EQ and other settings, you can notice a difference. I like bass so I boost the bass by as much as 15db and it's awesome. Works great. But I am also not using the rr ROM. I'm using computer Creek's lollipop ROM. Same thing though.

To test if it is working, play some music and then go to the viper4android app -> settings menu -> Driver Status. If processing = yes, it's working.

What app are you using to play music?
Also, there are a couple versions of v4a floating around, and some work better than others. When I was using RR 6.0, I used the ViperAtmos 5.5 Sony Beats Edition from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/viperaudio-viperatmos-3-8-sq-driver-t3289075

[Magisk Module] In-call volume fix for earpiece and speaker

I saw an update in the Pixel Experience thread by @ApoorvTrikha that shared a flashable zip to fix the volume for phone calls whether in speakerphone mode or using the earpiece. I've created a Magisk Module that looks to fix this. I removed the /bin folder from the original flashable zip because it sent my phone into a bootloop, but the files in /lib and /lib64 seem to fix the volume issue on their own.
I do not know who first created the flashable zip so I could not give proper credit in the module. Lmk and I can at least send thanks here.
Let me know if this works for you! This worked for me while on latest Pixel Experience rom and on Magisk v16.
Instructions: Download and add the zip to Magisk modules.
What exactly does this fix? Does the earpiece only work in speaker mode during calls on custom roms?

The volume for many users on custom roms was very low while making a phone call. This issue happened regardless of whether the speakerphone was on or off.
Thanks. It worked for me as well
works perfectly on RR rom
This was fixed in yesterday's release of PIxel Experience but this may work for other roms that haven't fixed this yet.
Will this be good for and for and on rooted stock?

I'm not sure but it's worth a try. Since it's a Magisk module you can easily revert it. Please report back.
Is this compatible with Oreo? I'm on Lineage OS 15.1

I don't know if it will work on stock rom. You can try it but if you end up bootlooping you should find the Magisk uninstaller utility to roll back successfully.

Low Speaker Volume/Sound after installing RR Rom.

I recently installed RR rom on my Phone and im having very low sound on my speaker. Its very dull compared to the stock rom and I cant even listen to tap sounds or notifications properly. I tried changing the file mixer_path.xml in vendor/etc folder in root directory and that almost caused me a problem but i fixed that. Please tell me how to fix the low sound ? and should i install a audio mode like Viper4Android or Dolby Atmos? but first tell me how to do it without the mod ? Please help asap. Thank you :fingers-crossed:
