One of the most ignored part of Android mobiles is the Sound level and Volume. Users mostly go for a High-end device, just because it has more RAM and high Power CPU, but in the end after praising the device about its Speed and Performance, once they put on the headphones, or missed a call from someone special, then they realize that the Sound and volume of this device is not as good as the one owned by their friends, which as a matter of fact, Cheap and not a high-end device. I have seen many cases, in which a person is sad just because it goes after a high-end device, because of it amazing specs and find that the device does not have such sound boost as it suppose to have.
The same is the case with OnePlus One, the flagship killer device has won thousands of hearts all over the world, because of its awesome and amazing specs with such cheap price. However, the user have complained that they are experiencing some volume issues, that it is not as loud as they want it to be. The XDA community took such things way to seriously, and as always, they too provide the solution and this time, DARKCHYLDX101, has a MOD that will improve the Sound and Volume of your OnePlus One. There are Two Methods available, one is done through the Recovery and the other one is completely manually.
