Fix for audio levels

This post will tell (those of you who do not know already) how to change the audio output levels on the fierce 2.

I noticed it was a problem when I got the phone and plugged it in to the aux port on my car's stereo.
Stock, the output just isn't enough to get the job done correctly.

Here's how to fix that.

(IMPORTANT)
You must be rooted for this to work.

1. Open your root browser
(If you don't have one, just search the play store for root browser)

2. Navigate to "/system/etc/"

3. Open the file "mixer_paths.XML" with your text editor.

4. You will find these lines a little bit from the top:
-RX1 Digital volume
-RX2 Digital volume
-RX3 Digital volume

(RX1 Controls the output to the aux port/headphones, RX3 controls the output of the back speaker)

5. Replace the values of "84" at the end of RX1 and RX2 with your desired value.
(What I've found is a good level for both is anywhere between 90-94)

6. Save and exit.

That's it.

This will get the audio from your speaker and aux port up and working the way it's supposed to be, giving your headphones/stereo the glory and performance they deserve.

This is generally much safer than downloading an already modified version of the file and replacing it in your phone.

Also, of you had problems when changing values in the files, here's the stock file:
