Hi guys. Have any of you used the i9000 headset on your Nexus S to listen music? It sounds horrible. But the problem seems to be more on the software side. On Voodoo control, if I use the mono option for the headset it gets better, but at normal volume it gets distorted. It's hard to understand if you cant listen, but has anyone tried it?
Thanks

Hi guys, I'm running Darky 9.3 (don't know if that's relevant or not)
I've searched the forums (and the web) but couldn't find any mention of this. When I listen to music on my Galaxy S using headphones it sounds amazing, full stereo, really clear. When I use the external speaker its lovely and loud... but recently when listening to The Beatles I realised that it was only playing the left channel through the speaker (I assumed it would have been both left and right combined).
Now anybody who knows the early Beatles music and the massive stereo separation will realize this means I couldn't hear the drums/guitar/vocals depending on the track.
I tried the same song with headphones... perfect.
I tested this using both the stock Samsung music player and mSpot... the same with both.
Anybody else know about this?
Have to be honest this is just one of reasons i stoped useing custom roms as at some point i find issues i now use stock js8 its fast and reliable but i do wish you luck in finding answer

Or not properly inserted. No issues here.
The last two answers are just for fun or you guys don't understand english? He is talking about the sound through thephone's speaker!

Yeah i was just about to say... cable?
I only mentioned the Rom as I don't know if that's the cause or not. But yeah.. through headphones? music is fine... through external speaker? ...only left audio channel.
With most modern music you can get away with it to be honest as usually the vocals bass and drums are mixed to the centre... but with older stuff? you miss half the music!
rather annoying...
It is one channel. Voodoo sound fix can force mono which fixes it mate. Comes with 9.3

It is pretty much industry standard (and I don't just mean the mobile phone industry) that when representing Monoural audio, you use only the left channel! as mentioned, software mixers exist, but I would not be surprised if the stock rom did the same.

hmm.... I'd have tested the stock rom if I'd realised about this in time. There's no way I can be bothered re flashing my phone... testing it... flashing it back and then going through all the hassle of setting up again. urgh. lol
I wonder if there's anybody who has a strong-stereo separation music track they can test who's on stock? is it two-channel mono? or just the left channel?
Thanks for the answers so far guys
Go into voodoo settings and choose force mono. I get 2ch audio

EDIT: Never mind I found it. Works great, thanks!
Just have to remember to turn it back to stereo when i put headphones in. But at least I can listen to The Beatles when I'm in the kitchen now on the built in speaker. Cheers!
Hello everybody,
I'm pretty new to this device since i have swapped it two days ago so I would like a question about audio quality.
With the stock rom I had pre-installed the audio quality was samsung standard: not good but at least audible.
I moved to another rom (Overcome 7 v 4.1.0) which kernel supports voodoo sound.
I was really shoked when i listened to a song for the first time: bass and mid-ranges were just fine as voodoo makes them while highest pitches (and voice too) seems like playing miles away from me: they get all muffled whitout any apprent reason!
I double checked it wasn't a problem of my headset plugging them into my galaxy s and listening to the same song flawlessly.
Did anybody experienced this problem too?
Install DSPManager and set the equalizer to your liking.

True, much better with that.
Speakers volume
I have the same Tab with Overcome 4.1.0. It is a low volume level of speakers for making or recieving calls. Do you know what a problem is?

LOL, that isn't a solution!
Audio should be clear before applying any other effects (dsp or equalizing).
Btw I finally got the solution: it was all fault of Samsung's crappy headset!
I replaced with another set from another brand and it all works like a charm now!
Mods, you can close this thread.

Hi everyone,
I'm having a little problem with my Galaxy Ace lately. When I play music on it, it plays just fine through the speaker, no problem whatsoever. However, if I connect my headphones, the music is really weird/just not right. There is no bass and there's an echo.
Another thing: If I connect my computer's speakers (3.5mm audio jack as well), it plays the music just fine like through its own speaker.
Wat could be the problem here?
Aditional info:
Galaxy Ace rooted, no OC (stock 800mhz), CM10.1 20130513 from Maclaw.
I have no other problems whatsoever with the rom.
My friend has a nokia E series phone. When i tried plugging his headphones. I got the same problem. The sound gets muffled and only music can be heard. Try using a different earphone and see if that works.

Thanks for the tip, another pair of earphones seemed to work. Is there a reason why my Ace won't accept both Nokia earphones I tried?
For example:
I watch videos in YouTube with headphones. And the sound volume is very very low. Yes i change the volume to the latest.
I tseted it with 3 headphones and everytime the same.
Before it was working very good. I am at rooted stock xxlqe.
What can i do?
Sry for my english

Well in my case this was headphones issue. Stock ones or one cheap pair without mic were both 'just ok' when maxed volume on android. Those got broken and I have bought pair from sony - still not high end as I do not need high end - that mid one is perfect and now I am using 10 - 50% range on volume control - higher is too loud in general and peaks are over transmission chart for them so sound gets distorred.
Btw check sound controls on youtube and on android - maybe youtube flash player controlls were lowered by accident.
