I would rather have the volume increased (bug fixed) than stereo speakers. I hope you don't like your ears to be blasted with the ringtone music as there is a gesture to pickup the incoming call by placing your phone in your ears (you don't have to swipe).

Well, that is a valid point.. It can be tweaked further though. Like switching off the top speaker when movement is detected, or using 1 speaker only for phone ringtone but use 2 speakers for other notifications.
Whatever it is, I hope they solve this.
Here's a thread related to this:

olokos, here`s the requested file. If you can try to do something, please, try to do it, because the ring volume is so weak :(

Try this. It should play the ringtone when you're getting a call with both speakers now. What boost in percentage would you suggest? I don't have the Z2, just the Z1 so I can't test this by myself.
As always - You're doing it at your own risk. ;)

Oh ,man, it`s working!!! Awesome, finally both speakers when incoming call!
Thank you very very much, bro! :) Now THIS IS THE PHONE!!
Aahhh!!! :)

About the boost, well, i don`t know, now the volume level is fine for me with 2 speakers, and i`m afraid to get the levels higher, to not to damage the speakers, i don`t reaaly know which levels are safe to increase....

olokos, what do you think, the sound profile when call uses the same algorithm as a sound profile in walkman or not ? It ssems to me that sound on call and sound in walkman is slightly different, or am i wrong ? Clearaudio+ is on the both profiles.

I think that 30% speaker volume boost is safe, but not more. I remind that Zeroinfinity had done a mod with 30% volume boost for the Z.

olokos, what do you think, what percentage of a boost increase is more or less safety for the speaker ? 15-20% maybe ?
Can't tell. I don't own the device so I can't tell by myself.

It does use a different algorithm, I'm sure of it. :)

Thanks, I'll boost it by 30% then. :)

How do I make this mod work? Am I supposed to copy it and replace the stock file in system>etc? Because changing the name of the original and then copying this file doesn't make it work and in fact my phone app stops working. Any help will be greatly appreciated :(

All sounds have completely stopped working for my phone after I tried to simply copy and paste the mixer_paths.xml file. It's freaking ridiculous. Can someone please guide me through this :(

Well it's a mod and its zipped, my guess would be that u put zip file in root folder of phone (as in main folder, not one called root), boot into custom recovery, install update from sd, then click this zip file. you need to have unlocked bootloader and installed a custom recovery, id also reccomend the repair thing in pc companion t get your sounds back first, assuming it works with unlocked bootloaders
