What This Mod Does:
Before most of you hit the fan on why this is needed, I had worked on the Galaxy Nexus scene for quite some time, JellyBean has a pitiful and low volume and I had spent tireless effort to make sure the audio is the least concern for Nexus devices
Galaxy Nexus Thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1748803)
The Nexus has pitifully low volume. Previous fixes like the Volume+ app and Franco's app only increased the volume on music playback, but did nothing for in-call volume (Skype, VOIP) or notifications, or your earphone experience.
This mod changes all that. It will increase ALL volume, across the entire phone: music, notifications, loudspeaker sound, ear speaker sound, in-call volume, and headset.
NOTE: The loudness will be there in general, But some apps RESTRICT this by adding their own EQ's for money purposes. If the app of your choice does not support the MOD then kindly post on their app to allow the use of "Third party Equalizers" Spotify has done this recently and the MOD works wonderfully.
Requirements:
- Any kernel besides stock with CWM.
- Jellybean 4.1.1, Deodexed/Odexed
- Nandroid backup. Implore this at all costs as sometimes common human mistakes happen.
Note: odexed is fine, majority claim it works just perfectly.
Compatible with:
-Trinity and Franco kernels (& now all major kernel)
-Most ROM's
- Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus
-Google Music/Apollo [Some players don't allow third party equalizers to affect them, before you state it doesn't work please attempt via these players]
Known Bugs:
- Upon installing it the first time, it will hang and reboot, but upon rebooting all will be perfect and good.
If anyone finds anything else just let me know, I'll see what I've missed. Thanks once again!
Installation:
1. Copy zip to Internal Storage
2. Boot to CWM
3. Install zip from sdcard
4. Reboot
FAQ:
1. I got a message saying "MusicFX has stopped" when selecting DSP Manager in Settings/Sound/Music Effects.
Just ignore it, I can't give a technical explaination of why it does it, but it doesn't impact anything from what I can tell. This mod still works without selecting it, at least from my experience.
-More to add.

-Added more friendly support with AOKP/AOSP based ROM's

-Fixed the issue where build.prop was not getting properly written with the new audio mods.
-Fixed the issue where previous odex files were not getting deleted forcing you to receive "Android is updating" on every reboot.
-Removed lowerlatency fix as the louder version of audioflinger.so conflicted with the newer release. (Will add it in Beta3 perhaps when it's done being worked on)
-Fixed the permissions for DSP which usually force closed on some people. Was a blunder on my part (Cheers Osmosis)
-XLouder mod now get's properly activated unlike the last. Previously the equalizer settings made the difference, but now XLouder works.
Note:
For those of you who claim you can't notice the difference, do this.
-Play a song in the background
-Launch DSP app
-Go to Speaker Settings
-Enable the "Beats Boost" (You will hear the sound goes really low)
-Enable Equalizer and Set it to "Acoustic" Preset (If you turn it off and on you will notice a mass difference):
Also, Kindly if there's an issue do let me know, Downvoting and rating 1 star just because you missed a step or didn't read the OP might give people the wrong idea. Thanks.
Note: If you are on PA based ROM's, Use Beta3, Else for the rest Use Beta4. Beta4 is the reworked hotfix.
