UPDATED: Audiopara.csv for 3.XX ROMs, now in cab style
 

THIS IS FOR THE 3.XX ROMS ONLY.

SEE UPDATE BELOW

This will not work with the older 2.XX ROMs, the files are different between the ROMs and using the wrong one may make your phone SILENT.

This file is designed to increase the volume of the phone. It increases the ear piece speaker, speakerphone speaker, and headphone/handsfree speaker levels.

The ear piece and speakerphone speakers start at the factory Sprint level for low, but get louder in greater steps. The loudest was near the edge of distortion when I called my voicemail.

The headphone/handsfree level has been increased by about 15%, no where near as much as the first 2, but its headphones, so I'm not jacking it up that much.

To install....

1. Download audiopara.csv.txt
2. Rename to audiopara.csv (meaning you get rid of the .txt part)
3. Backup audiopara.csv from your Windows directory of your phone.
4. Copy into the Windows directory of your phone, overwriting the original.
5. Soft reset. Yes you need to soft reset.


Disclaimer : I am not responsible if you break your phone or go deaf. This is not a hard thing to do, read the directions twice. Also be careful when using initially as the volume is louder than it was when you got the phone.

Anyone may feel free to use this file in a custom ROM or whatever, jsut put my name in there, if you would. :D

Thanks to mswlogo for figuring out how to do this in the older ROMs.

Glad I could finally give back to the community that has helped me out so much. Enjoy.

If someone wants to do a mirror thing go for it.

UPDATE

I have now updated the install method.
I've also added the original since people arent backing up.


Here's the new and improved way to install. This zip file has my original .csv file in it AND now comes with a .cab file for easy install, without overwriting and copying and such.

Instructions are the same for the csv file.

Instructions for the cab are fairly simple.

1. Copy cab to phone.
2. Run cab, install to Device.
3. When done, soft reset.
4. Enjoy loudness.

Enjoy.

Let me know if there are problems.

does anyone else have this file? can you upload please.

i cant download or connect to the link on this post

links dead b00n

Worked perfect for me... thanks!

I had to use Explorer to copy the original into another folder then overwrite it with TC... both Explorer and total commander wouldn't let me rename it for some reason.

the server was down earlier for some stupid reason, try again everyone.

Hello, I'm running the new 3.16 rom and have lost my ring tones. I went to put this file in windows on my phone and it asked me if I was sure that I wanted to do this. It said it could damage my phone. I read that you said to back up the original file but is there a good chance that this file could wreck my phone. Also, would this file fix my ring tone problem possibly?

Thats a normal warning for overwriting anything in the Windows directory. It shouldnt do any harm to your phone. I use it, and other people here have used it with 0 problems.

It wont help your ring tone problem though. It only makes everything louder.

it might just be me, but i put a copy of the audiopara in my windows dir. and that was it. i didnt have an older version in there that i seen. and i soft reset and it doesnt seem louder. am i doing it right???

will this work with the wm6.1 rom thats based on 3.16?

yup... =D>

will this work for the htc apache? (6700) im running wm6 one of the prepacked carrier roms built by helmi c back in i think august 2007? i didnt actually see a file called audiopara.csv in the windows directory.

if the file doesnt already exist I very much doubt placing mine there would have any effect.

Do you need to do this through Active sync or Resco Expl on the phone?

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go... works again
 

Wished I see this when using the 3.16 ROM. Will this work with the newest ROM's that are based on official Spring release (e.g., DCD 3.0.0)?

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go... works again
 

once its on the phone, its best to use Resco to copy over the original. Sometimes the stock explorer complains about overwriting a ROM file.

[quote=journey;216355]yes, this works with the new DCD rom. I use it for that. I know DCD uses a tweak audiopara already, but I believe he only turns up the earpiece speaker, where I turn the earpiece, speakerphone, and wired headphones up.

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

Just wanted to say thanks Scruf, this works PERFECTLY with the new 3.35 ROM...MUCH better than nueAudio...

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

no problem.

How comes its better than no2chem's deal? Is mine louder?

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

Yeah, yours is a lot louder actually, which is exactly what I wanted, plus I didn't want to install any extra stuff, I like to keep mine nice and clean...

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

is there any way to get this on the phone without installing resco explorer? i copied my original into a new folder, then i used activesync to copy the file onto the phone. then i renamed it audiopara.csv, and it did nothing. both versions were still in windows. then i took off the csv extension, and both versions again were still there. i could scroll up and see the original still there...two files with the exact same name. then on the original, i did a 'undo name change' and it stuck csv back onto the original. it then allowed me to delete it. i rebooted, and the file is there now, but it has the original date of the original file which is 2/22/08. im not sure if thats the new or old one. seems to be the old one. any ideas?

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

I'm working on the file tonight, trying to bump some other things up and I can copy it into Windows using Activesync. Renamed it to AudioPara.csv on the computer, then drag/dropped into the windows directory of the phone. Overwrote it just fine

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

it didnt do it for me. when i dropped it using activesync, it looked like it copied it but it didnt. it just added it to the list. the original stayed there with a date of 2/22/08. i cannot get rid of the original at all. i loaded resco explorer, but when i try to rename it or delete it, it says that it is in ROM and cannot be deleted. any help?

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

try this...

In Resco, go to Menu --> Options --> General ... Go to Browser tab and uncheck everything there.

Try copying with Resco again after that.

anyone try this with on a Verizon phone? One dewd I'm helping lost all his sound with it.

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

Scruf, did you further tweak the file, or did you just make the cab?? Thanks!

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

just made the cab file. At this point I'm trying to research how to make the bluetooth louder, if possible. Thats gonna be more difficult.

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

Sweet, thanks!

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

Works great, thank you!

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...

Any plans to further increase headphones volume? Yeah, I like it LOUD, lol! But the 15% increase is definitely noticeable, awesome! Thx :)

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

I can make one thats louder on the headphones if you want.

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

That'd be awesome bro! Oh yeah, I'm running 3.35, thanks!

~Jeans

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

starts a little louder on the headphones, gets a lot louder than my original.

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
 

Any luck to turn up BT volume a little more?

Re: Audiopara.csv for 3.16 ROM, here you go...
