Hi All,
I have noticed that there is background issues with headphones in the HTC One in the standard edition. Can anyone using the Google Play Edition comment on how the audio quality is on the Google Play edition. I am guessing there is no Beats audio to worry about.
Beats Audio does exist on the GPE, but there's no static on mine.
Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones? Are you sure the pair you're using right now is pushed into the jack all the way? Does the same audio file have no static when played on a different device?

I just received my HTC BoomBass subwoofer as part of a promotion with my HTC One. The bluetooth device pairs perfectly with NFC but it ONLY plays through the BoomBass. The idea is that the BoomBass is supposed to be a subwoofer that supports the sound coming from your phone's speakers but those get turned off as soon as the BoomBass is connected. So I'm basically listening to muffled bass-only sound.
In a way I understand the logic behind turning off the phone speakers when you connect to a bluetooth device (headset, bluetooth speakers) usually that's what you want. Not here though.
Any ideas how I can keep both the phone speakers and the BoomBass on?

Pretty sure it only works with the One Max, Its something in the software that keeps them on, as far as I know, could be wrong.
EDIT: Link it with NFC, Turn on NFC and tap it on top of the speaker then see if it works.
Should work on all HTC One devices (Max, Mini and regular). It was a promotion from HTC Netherlands themselves: "buy an HTC One, get a BoomBass free". Would be very strange if it didn't work with the device they promoted it with. Linking the NFC isn't the problem, that works fine. Tapping the top of the speaker connects it and it starts playing, but it only plays through the BoomBass then.
UPDATE: the BoomBass needs Android 4.3 to work. I was running 4.2.2. Updated and works now.
So why does it need the 4.3? I cannot update to 4.3 due to problems with my appradio but I would like to use the boombass speaker. I get sound over the speaker but it''s only the bass, the phone speakers do not work anymore. I know wit android 4.3 they do work so what is the difference and can't we make a mod for it so it does work in android 4.2.2?
Is boom bass available in the US haven't hear day out it yet
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

I think it mostly has to do with the Sense version since the Boom Bass is only usable on HTC One/Max/Mini.
Unless you get it for free in some kind of deal I wouldn't advice anyone to buy the Boom Bass. It's clearly a problem to perfectly sync the audio between the Boom Bass subwoofer and the device speakers over a bluetooth connection. Even the slightest miss match in sync you'll notice and that's especially the case when you're listening to music (because you're listening to a rhythm). The Boom Bass is just a fraction of a second off which makes a whole song feel distorted and simply awkward. Less so when you're watching a video on the device because the not-perfect sync doesn't matter as much then.
I got it for free so thats why i'm wondering It's strange that under sense 5.5 it does work and under sense 5.0 not. Cannot figure out why
Sorry to reheat this thread but I have the same problem. Just got the Boombass but its only playing through the bass not the phone speakers. I have Cyanogen with Kitkat 4.4. So its not the same problem? I guess? I dont know.
I even replaced the tfa folder after this suggestion but no difference. (It was suggested on a german forum with the same problem and this supposed to help, but it didnt.)
Does anyone have a solution? I would be very grateful. Thanks
Hi guys,
I have bought a logitech 5.1 speakerset. When i put the aux in my HTC One i get only from 2 speakers sound.
I have search for some setting to make a virtual 5.1 sound but i didn't found it (had that option in my HTC Desire HD ). Search for google also nothing i found. Where can i find this setting.
I want orginal to work if it not is a option in HTC One i found plenty of apps in the play store but wich is the best
Music i wonna play over the speakerset i Spotify or Youtube or Music that i have on the Phone.
Regards Jorn
How do you propose outputting 6 channels through a stereo jack?
You'd have to output via USB at the very least, but I haven't investigated whether this works.

If you have a 5.1 logitech set that support the ''matrix'' function like the X540 you will be able to use all the 5 speakers and sub in extended stereo mode only. It means no 5.1 sound but stereo sound on all spreakers. As said before, impossible to output 5.1 signal from a stereo jack.

Has anybody had audio quality issues with the headphone jack on the Nexus 6? I've had two different Nexus 6 units and both of them have static when audio is playing through the headphones, and some, but not all audio is distorted. I've tried a couple different headphones as well but they both have the issue. Should I RMA again, or should I keep my current device and try to find a solution myself? Thanks.
I am not sure if this is a device specific issue or a general one but my pixel 4 xl when using a type c earphones during calls, I can hear my own voice through the earphones that I speak through the microphone. Whatever I speak is projected to the person on the other end as well as to me as well. The issue is present only when the earphones are connected, I have tried two different earphones and both work fine on another phone. Does anyone else has this issue? If yes did you manage to correct it and how?
So at home I have a crazy awesome google home set up with multiple speaker systems, lighting, smart outlets, google minis, and google home speakers all tied into the awesome google home app. For (3) different speaker systems, I used the old chromecast audio to tie the receivers into my google home system and it worked great! Now that is discontinued for whatever reason, and I can't seem to find an equal to it (the chromecast audio that is). I want to tie in another speaker system with an old receiver I have. Does anyone know an alternative to the chromecast audio that will do the same thing that the chromecast audio did? Also, I read about tieing speakers with bluetooth capabilities into the google home system, but couldn't figure out how. Anyone done this yet?
Thanks!
I have a few Chromecast audio devices, and got a Google Home Mini and realise it is very similar. It offers an audio out port that I could plug in to my speaker, and I can stream to it as a Cast Audio device.
