**HINTS**

Quote:

Safe Usage Lower all android volumes to below 50% (system, in-call & media volume, etc) BEFORE installing for the first time (to ensure vol is not set to high upon initial activation). Do not use high volume for long periods of time. Your general listening volume levels should be set between 25%-75% Only use max volume (75%-100%) for quiet sources as even the main speaker can distort at high volume. When using your device in landscape: ensure buttons face up so the handset speaker is on your left and the main speaker is on your right (rotating your device will not change left/right output). To equalise speakers; adjust the L:R balance/pan in your default AudioFX App or favourite media player, if the setting is available make L>R. If you also have 3rd party sound enhancement/processing mods or libraries installed (EG Viper4android, Dolby, Sony, Beats, etc) then; It is recommended to use a balanced-soft-medium release as the volume increase in the louder releases may be too much and cause distortion &/or impact sound quality.

Most Importantly:

Please Enjoy !!


If you wish to use this mod or any of the included files/code for your own ROM build or mod;
Please first PM me a request with your project details and provide clear & appropriate credit when approved.


**WARNING**

Quote:

The handset speaker on this device is not designed for media-audio playback and is not capable of matching the max volume or quality of the main speaker. After installing this mod you should not play audio at high volume for long periods of time if you are concerned about damaging your speakers.
