In this video, we will show you the steps to fix the issue of the Volume Steps module not working on OnePlus running OxygenOS 15. This module comes in handy to increase the media and call volume size beyond what is permissible by the OEM. It is able to increase the media volume up to 30 and call volume up to 10. It is able to do so by tweaking the value in the build.prop file.
However, ever since the update to Android 15, this module is not working along the expected lines. While the reasoning is not concrete, it might be attributed to OnePlus because the related lines of source code of AOSP haven’t been changed since 2021. With that said, XDA Senior Member ShadoV90 managed to find a nifty workaround using which you can easily address this bug. So without any further ado, let’s check it out.
Fix Volume Steps Module Not Working on OnePlus OxygenOS 15
Before starting, please take a backup of all the data on your device, just to be on the safer side. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.
- Download and install a root-supported File Manager app.
- Then launch it and grant it the SuperUser Magisk request.
- Now head over to the below location
/data/adb/service.d
- Then create a new file in that directory and name it:
audioprops.sh
- Open this file and type in the below two values [for media]:
resetprop -n audio.safemedia.bypass true resetprop -n ro.config.media_vol_steps 30
- After that, add the below command [for call volume]
resetprop -n ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps X
- Change the value of X to the required numerical one [default is 9].
- Once done, save the file and change its permissions to
0755 (rwx r-x r-x).
- Likewise, set Owner and Group to root and restart your device.
You should now have 30 volume steps in the media and the call volume would have been increased as well [depending on the value you assigned to x]. Moreover, the warning about too high volume will be disabled as well. So on that note, we round off the guide on how you can fix the issue of the Volume Steps module not working on OnePlus running OxygenOS 15. If you have any queries concerning the aforementioned steps, do let us know in the comments. We will get back to you with a solution as soon as possible.
