Great app but Setting don't stick for speaker gain. On lollipop on my lg g3. Update. Never mind there is a custom setting. Working really well for volume boost. Thanks!
★★★★★
For anyone with a Nexus This add-on to the faux kernel gives you the sound boost we needed on our Nexus devices. I can only speak for Nexus 5 & 6 owners, but I love this app on both my phones.
★★★★★
Just the ticket for Nexus 7 Nexus 7 2013 has intolerably low volume. This app, combined with CleanROM Lollipop and ElementalX kernel provides way more volume without affecting sound quality.
★★☆☆☆
Does not change volume. Does not work I am using i9505 with imperium kernel 1.9a. Tried several kernels. All fauxsound drivers above 3.. currently 36.. do not work. The latest one that worked was an old kernel with version 2x.. Sent a message to fauxsound google group for help but no reply.. kindly help...
★★☆☆☆
Really bugged Contacted developer prior to rating with no response. A lot of times changes settings on its own, sometimes drops volume in only 1 earphone, sometimes just drops the volume and re-prompts the 'dangerous high level volume' massage also when you change the settings it sometimes doesn't stick and you have to play with the settings. Using a nexus 5 with elementalx.
★★☆☆☆
Not that great The UI is good but the function is not. Bugs throughout even using his own kernel, no help or support from dev. I guess it's back to Franco. Using Nexus 5 on both stock 5.1 and Euphoria 5.1 with same results. ETA: Uninstalling. I expected a lot more from such a well known dev but this app just sucks. It plain doesn't work.
★★☆☆☆
Broken Fauxsound settings don't stick on any kernel for hammerhead lollipop. They revert and cause audio abnormalities
