Help LG G3 Stylus (D690/93) Volume Boost

Hello Everyone,

As you know the LG phone's volume are terribly low, no exception for this model, I was wondering if there's any app or system file i could tweak to increase the volume sound for the ringtone.

The methods i tried are:

- Installing the Volume Booster LG G3 (root) app from the play store:

Status: My Device is not supported for this app.

- Open the File Manager app and then go to the “/system/etc” folder;
Find a file titled “mixer_paths_qcwcn.xml” (for the D855 model) or “mixer_paths.xml”

Status: Those both files are not in the system/ etc folder of my cellphone

- Increase the volume of my ringtone mp3 file
Status: The Audio quality got bad and the song sounds distorted


Device Info:
Model Name: LG D693 ( LG G3 Stylus)
Android : 4.4.2
Root: Yes

Any suggestions really appreciate it,

Anticipate Thanks,

- Barto604



NOTE: I posted my question here since i didn't saw a LG g3 stylus column or roll like the other LG phones

My apologies.
I was focused on media volume,not so much the in-call volume.
A quick glance in the Google Play Store doesn't seem to turn up anything more than separation of various volume controls,or,locking such at a specified level,nothing to actually boost the volume.
I'd take another look over @ XDA -Developers & see if anyone there has a solution.

Yeah, the idea is when people call me i can hear the cellphone ringtone louder than the actual volume of phone, since sometimes i hide my cellphone on my pocket or a bookbag, or instance i left it on a room and goes to another one and the cellphone level for the ringtone is incredibly low, ending me with miss calls from important people.

I notice when choosing a ringtone, example from the settings, the ringtone preview plays louder on the media volume than the actual in call option. And a lot of people have reported this.

Thanks for helping me and sorry if my answer wasn't clear before.

Ok i tried viper4android (try it for testing) and got not results, although in the preview the ringtone sounded way loud when i called myself the volume its still on normal. So i know it doesn't tweak with the main ringtone volume

Yeah,Viper4Android is awesome for music,even with Bluetooth earbuds,the difference is unbelievable.
Too bad it doesn't do anything for in-call volume.

Have you tried turning up call volume while talking on your phone?(during a call)

I think you guys still don't understand, the main idea is to boost my ringtone volume, example: someone calls me and it has a predominate ringtone for x person, the idea is to make the ringtone louder so i can hear it if for example I left my phone on my room and i'm at the kitchen, If that persons calls me I can't hear the cellphone ringing cause LG phones have their ringtone levels very low. ( even if the volume is all the way up)

In other terms I want to hear the ringing music of the phone louder than the default value.

Also I started searching on the system folder and i notice this particular file that caught my attention

Here's the inside of it,

Do you think this file may be the "mixer_paths_qcwcn.xml” (for the D855 model) or “mixer_paths.xml” for the LG G3 Stylus?

Appreciate your help
