Awesome! but i noticed that the sound quality and volume on ringtone is worse compared to music players and other stuff. for example i play a music and its sound is awesome through both speakers but when i set the same file as ringtone and test call on my phone the ringtone is much much lower. im gonna try this to see if this make a difference to that
if headphone volume in 1.0 is louder than 2.0 then what is changed in 2.0? speaker volume?

Edit: i accidentally deleted the original file can you provide it pls?

anyway thank you

btw ,your themes are awesome

Bro, is version 1 and 2 exactly the same, only 2 being louder for headphone? Otherwise loudspeaker, gaming/earpiece the same?

When doing voice calls/Skype/Viber?messenger is the earpiece/loudspeaker louder than stock? Have you enabled stereo speakers when loudspeaker phone call?

Compatible with both Nougat and Oreo?

Thanks!

Unfortunately did not work for me.

Upon rebooting my device I get ''sound settings'' error message followed by a low buzzing sound and no sound.

I had to copy the stock.zip default back to get my sound working again.

Could you please look into this?

My device is the XZ Premium Dual G8142.

My device has unlocked bootloader and is rooted with recovery. All instructions were followed including setting the mixer_paths to RW-R-R, not working.

Didn't find the mixer file in system/etc
