Actually, I tried it on both my phone and tab, and in both cases, I had this issue.

Well, the app is accessible, but, it appears to have done the oppisit of what it advertizes. It actually seems to a dropped! the volume, not raised it.

First of all, a few things. I'm perfectly aware that I would be doing this at my own risk, and that no one on this list will be held lyable if I break something in the process. I also understand that most likely, I'd have to be rooted for this to work. I have CM 11, so I don't think it would be an issue, and yes, I definitely am rooted. OK, now on to my question.

So, basically, here's the deal. The main reason I'm looking at getting the Kindle Fire HDX or, God forbid, the fact I tried a B&N Nook, don't get me started again... any, way, is because though I have an IPad, and though I absolutely swear by it, it's bulky as all get out! I have the IPad 4 AT&T cellular 16GB white unit. So this thing's like, what, a 9 and a half inch screen? Need not I say, it's a heavy little booger! So, this is why back last what would that a been... November I think? I got the Nexus 7 2013 7 inch tab. Let's not get me wrong here. It's a gr'r'r'r'r'rate! and I do mean gr'r'r'r'rate! unit! I have nothing but good things to say about it. Oh man! It's fabulous! It took some sighted help, yeah, but, getting Cyanogenmod on it, was probably one of the easiest things with help I've done! Simply put, beautiful! There is only one? thing, that I gotta say on the negative side, which takes me to why I am asking this question on the list...

The internal speakers in the thing are horrible! Ab, suh, lootly? horrible! Good freaking luck! if you're in a noisy environment. I've heard some bad speakers on tablets before, don't get me wrong, but these beat any I've heard! Oh! Gawod their aweful! OK, maybe I'm just spoiled by my moto exes speaker, but, anyway...

So, as I said, I have CM 11. What I'm trying to do is, I'd like to find an app which would be Talkback friendly where I could basically uncap that volume control a ways, and push it to where the volume would get louder than natively what it can do. I understand I run the risk of overpowerring the speaker hardware doing this, and it could therefore bust the speaker. I also understand that it could bring distortion along with turning it up that high. So yeah, long story short, I am! aware of the risks and the possible rounifications. It's a risk I'm willing to take. And before you all tell me anything, don't worry, I am releasing all lyability from anyone who helps me with this. I know completely that I do this soly at my own? risk. That said, again, I have DSP manager, which supposedly can do this to some degree. The issue is, the part of the app that I think you have to go into to do it isn't accesible in the least. Absolutely nothing! on that screen reads, regardless what you do.

This is why I wondered if there may be another sollution for getting those internal speakers uncapped seeing that I am definitely rooted.

Thanks guys.

Chris.
