Hey folks
Recently, I experienced the most fantastic audio quality, mostly from very deep, rich bass levels. But I ROM-hopped back and forth, and that superb bass has yet to show itself again. I tried applying the Beats Audio patch through Carbon Tweaks, which helped a little, but it's nowhere near where it was. So many people talk **** about Beats by Dre, but what I experienced with these Beats Tour in-ears would match many over-ears. So I'm wondering how to get that rich bass back? I have my Equalizer app's custom settings saved, ready to shine. Is this kernel based? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

What was the rom you were on when you experienced deep bass?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
It was the same ROM but with the latest CM9 stable kernel, which is why I suspect it to be a kernel issue.
Anyone?

I doubt it's kernel related, usually rom.

Hmm.. weird.
Hey, it's back now! I have great, deep, fatty overear-style headphones bass again in my Dre Tours! After effin' around with a CM10 based ROM and coming back to an old, more stable CM9 based nandroid backuped ROM. In fact, it's the exact same ROM / kernel I was on when I posted this thread. Wish I knew which switch to flip for the next time I lose this great bass. :-/

Glad it's back? So you're back on pa 0.5?
There's the equaliser dsp manager in pa, have a look and see if anything is set, perhaps that's where the extra tubes are pumping from.

Oh yeah, I'm absolutely stoked! I celebrated with some Massive Attack. Sounds brilliant! I checked through DSP and everything is off / disabled.

I use the official cm9 nightlies with hardly any problems.
I prefer CM over MIUI, but that's me. There are many who like it the other way around.

what's the difference between nightlies and alpha?
Also, is this consider "stable" or more like beta/alpha?

The nightlies are published between the alpha releases. The alphas are supposed to be more stable, but at this point I feel that the nightlies are just as stable. The CM9 alphas have wifi problems, which have been fixed in the latest CM9 nightlies.
CM 7.2 should be about as stable as you get. I have never used them, though, since CM9 is so stable.
consider the cm9 alpha obsolete for about 6 months. the cm9 nightly is still being updated to this day.

No ROM has a working camera for the Touchpad.
EDIT: for ICS. My bad.
Both CM7 & CM9 seems to be stable enough. If you need camera, I heard that it's works on CM7.
thx for your help.
2 more questions but slightly off topic:
Did you guys calibrate the battery on ur touchpad?
I heard there's Beats Audio on the touchpad for WebOS. did you guys install something like this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525226 . Does this mean that Beats Audio is nothing more than software and not hardware?

Google developers have said that the effectiveness of battery calibration is a myth.
Beats Audio is just software; it's an equalizer. You can install Beats on the Touchpad with a mod. I don't know about the one you linked, but I tried out a mod of DSPManager that used Beats. (Was not impressed.)

I'm using the mod from this link - TP sounds much better (like in WebOS), especially speakers. U should try this)
For some reason, some game's tilt control is totally messed up (even if i calibrate it with the ingame option). Is this one of the Known bugs of CM 9 nightly?

So the cm9 night lies are the best from the current bunch. But I'm still using the last OaT LnT build. If you can find it, its superb. Just seen a post that he might come back soon to include the new camera drivers being developed and tested so I'd highly recommend using them asap

K i tried the mod form that link out. Wasn't impressed too. I wasn't impressed with Beats Audio in WebOS too, for most songs, it added a very small amount of bass. for rock songs, it made the guitar a little bit more clear.
Mods, u can close this thread if you want to as the question have been solved.
*small rant, question's in bold*
Forreal tho I'm on jellybean 4.1.2 build version 1.26.502.10 and boomsound is loud as hell.
I been playing around with custom kernels and roms and noticed that the newest update (build 1.29) reduces the max volume noticeably.
..Reading around the forums confirmed this also.
For comparison, 1 click up from mute on 1.26= 3 clicks up from mute on 1.29
Has anybody figured out what the changes are that HTC implemented that causes this?
I read another post somewhere in the elementalx forum that HTC said these speakers are capable of 93db! So why can't be have that?
Hell one of the main reasons why I got this phone was because of the amplified dual stereo speakers, if I want to blow them then let me but best be assured I'm gonna be jamming until they go.
I hope there's some dev out there working on making this phone's speakers reach their limits for us. I'm gonna be staying on 1.26 for awhile and enjoy my loud volume. I'll be definitely keeping a backup saved in case I decided one day that some rom's tweaks and stuff is a better tradeoff than louder volume.
*end rant* But seriously tho.. Can I haz even louder volume plox? Lol
This is a kernel issue already addressed due to released source not being complete. Hopefully will be fixed soon!!

I keep getting a keyboard fc error once it starts up, flashed twice.
Installed per instructions and it works great thus far. No FCs yet. Will play around with it more in order to try and break it.
Thanks a bunch, loving it so far.

Try fixing permissions. A few people have reported that this solves the keyboard FC.
I've noticed fc's on most of the 4.3 roms i've tested at least on my phone not enough to be problematic but there. Thanks for giving the rom a shot hopefully the next beta will fix some of these minor glitches
The only issue I can come up with so far is a little bit of screen tearing on the wallpaper when scrolling between home screens. And that's being nitpicky considering most other ROMs I've tried (aside from stock) have done this.
Great ROM, thanks again.
op updated beta 3
how is battery life and functionality for those using? I'll flash shortly
Updated to Beta 4, Beta 4 gapps are in folder as well for convenience. Enjoy
BEST running 4.3 ROM I've tried yet! Thank YOU so much!

When is the battery life going to be improved so that they can last more than 3 to 4 hours as well as when is the are y'all going to be louder for the speakerphone and ear piece for calls? I could barely hear anyone with a volume cranked all the way up. This is my experience with all 4.3 roms. I so far have not been able to put up with it and went back to 4.2 because I have awesome battery life with no audio issues. I can't really tell the difference between 4.3 in 4.2 anyway so it's not a big deal, but I would like to have the latest and greatest because I know you are working on it really hard... And so are the others developers. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Yea I too like to keep up to date with the firmwares and with arrrghhhs kernel both call volume and battery life are quite acceptable, but the performance increase isn't as apparent. I mostly use my phone as a game console. Nobody calls me and I barely get texts idky I even have a service provider. I don't use navigation or books or task killers or ANYTHING other than games, and in that aspect, being one of the most demanding processes on both CPU and GPU and memory, there isn't much difference in performance. Plus I keep flashing 4.3 roms and keep having issues with games reading the storage properly so most of the time i end up recovering my 4.2 nandroid.
Keeping up to date is nice, but if it aint broke...

Is there a ROM that has better sound quality in-call than stock? Everyone keeps telling me I sound awful.
I like the AOSP look, so I tried De-Sensed and Virtuous Inquisition, but they sound like crap. And everyone knows about CM's in-call problems.

You could give WildChild's modded stock sense rom a try. Google "WCXXPERIA", it's located in those forums now.
I am willing to bet you have a case on your phone...
Take the case off and see if the problem persists...
On stock... The noise canceling mic gives all kinds of problems... Or at least it did for me

i have been looking for the same thing but that is one problem with AOSP Roms but the best ROM i use with the best audio is the HOLICs ROM but it does have few bugs so i switched to Dirty Unicorn ROM and it works and audio isnt bad cuz you can adjust the audio with kernels
Tried a couple of aosp based roms, namely aokp and cm11s and I've found the audio quality through the speaker to be far worse than with a Sense rom. It's tinny and much quieter.
Had this issue on my old One X plus and it was down to driver availability or lack of back in the day. Is this still the same situation with the One aosp based roms, driver issues causing the tinny and quiet sound through the speaker?
Thanks.
