Increase keyboard touch sounds

I have the Halobean Rom and love it. What I can't figure out is how to make the keyboard sounds louder. I have set everything I can find to max or 100 but still can barely hear the keyboard touch sounds. I like to hear the noise, I'm goofy that way. LOL Phone is the zte warp n860.
 
I forgot to mention to my previous statement that the phone ringtone is loud and the notification ring tone loud also. It just seems like there is absolutely no volume increase for keypad tones.
 
You'd have to go into /system/media/audio/UI and find the keypad touch sound file and boost it to about 180%. That's what I did to the other 3 folders in /system/media/audio, but not in the UI folder because the camera sounds seem finicky. Of course, the sound file for keyboard touch may not be in there and might be totally dependent of the keyboard app being used, so volume increase may not work :(
 
Okay thank you for that good info. However I'm not a programmer so looking at the file in hex view scares me. What I did find while in the UI folder is that the sounds for each item within that folder are at the level I like. But when I go back to text I can barely hear the sounds. I have all volume maxed out in all areas that I can find but am not getting the volume I like.
 
Using a root browser, copy that sound file and move it to a computer. Then you'll be able to download a program and boost the sound and then move it back
 
Okay I copied the file over to my pc. Edited it and tried to copy it back. Problem is it keeps saying I don't have permission. What do I do now?

If you're using a root browser it should give you permission... if not go in super user and make sure that your file explorer is being granted permission
