I'm not certain but it should be possible to root, change the values and unroot.

I'm not sure if you will be able to get OTAS due to the file being modified however.

quick google says using android pay with root is possible:

Just disable root from SuperSU, add your cards to Android Pay app, then re-enable SuperSU/Root and you’re done, ready to make payments using Android Pay.

Is this the values right under the first hphl and hphr? Not that far down from the top of the page.

Do you know what changing rx3-rx8 would change? What made you change rx1 and rx2?

So you did change the others from 20-33?

No sound post editing Mixer_paths.xml Nexus 6p

Just a FYI for all, after I replaced my Mixer_Paths.xml and rebooted I had no sound at all.

The cause was the permissions change when you copy the new file over, so go back in ES Explorer, browse to the file and change the permissions to rw-r-r then reboot and you now have sound and higher headphone volume.

It's easier to just open the file with a text editor in android and change it than to copy the file to SD, change it with your computer, put it back on SD and copy it back.

Android Pay worked most of the time on my 2013 Moto X. I unrooted, added the cards, then rooted again. It just wasn't reliable enough for me to leave any of my debit/credit cards at home.

Is the boosting headphone volume, or in-call volume? I'm interested in making in-call volume louder.

CollinFX45 · Dec 30, 2015

I'm stumped on this method. I'm somewhere between n00b and intermediate when it comes to rooting, but I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I rooted via "systemless root" and I am not able to modify the mixer_paths.xml file and save it. It will not let me. Could this be because I somehow ended up with read-only on system? Can anyone please help? This mod was literally the only reason I rooted and unlocked the bootloader on my 6p and now I'm regretting my decision
