Boost Audio Gain
The V3x does not have an audio gain.bin table so in order to boost your audio gain for things like ringtones and ObeyMoto, upload this sound boosting file to a/system. http://www.filelodge.com/files/room31/857629/Soundboot-file-2audio_cfg.zip. Be sure to backup your original file to your hard drive before you replace this file on your phone just in case you want to revert to the original gain settings. This file does not affect Bluetooth volumes though so don’t expect any changes in that area.
Modify Your Own audio_cfg.db file! [monica_69]
I noticed that when I used the Sound Boost file to increase the volume on my VX3, the volume was a bit too loud and I was afraid to accidentally fry the external speaker one day. So I searched for a way to edit the audio_cfg.db file in Hex Editor.
This is what I found on another forum (can't remember where...sorry), I tested it and set mine for "3" which is plenty loud enough! Note: Estimated time for mod: 5 minutes
1. Locate your original audio_cfg.db file on your phone in the a/mobile/system directory and download it to your hard drive using P2K Commander or P2K Manager, or Moto4Lin
2. Back it up first before you do the next steps!!
3. Open the copy of the audio_cfg.db file in your favorite Hex Editor such as XVI32
4. Go to Offset 3A5 (Menu>Address>go to = Type in the value “3A5”. XVI32 will place you in the highlighted 3A5 offset. it should have the default value of 01
5. Change that value per your choice between 02 to 06 (I chose 03). Just type right in the box. No BIT Manipulation is required for this mod.
6. Save the file
7. Copy it back to the phone’s a/mobile/system directory using P2K Commander
8. Restart the phone and set the volume levels as you like again (Settings>Ring Styles>???Detail>Ring Volume = 1 – 7) Note: ???Detail means that you have to set your volumes for each ring profile, i.e., Loud, soft, etc.
So in summary, you:
a. Download the audio_cfg.db file from a/mobile/system directory on your phone using P2K Commander and save a copy of it somewhere safe
b. Edit the copy of the audio file using XVI32 Hex editor and save it
c. Upload the modded file to your phone's a/mobile/system directory
d. Restart your phone using the restart button in P2K Commander
e. Set your volume levels (Settings>Ring Styles>???Detail>Ring Volume = 1 – 7)
