So, if you're like me, you can't stand the "feature" that has the ringtone start out silently then increase to normal volume. After searching around, I found a mod that will remove the increasing ringtone and play at full volume from the get-go. This thread for the Moto Z Play has a solution that works perfectly for the E4 (and I would imagine any Moto series phone).
The mod involves one of the following: editing the file, renaming the file (.bak), or deleting the file. The file in particular is:
audio_ext_spkr.conf. It is located in /system/etc. I simply copied the file to my SD Card (in case there was a problem), then deleted audio_ext_spkr.conf from /system/etc, and rebooted.

Now, there is no more increasing ringtone! I couldn't be happier.
