apt-X for AOSP --> possible for us ??? calling devs devs - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi to all devs,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48188145&postcount=33
They got it working, apt-X on AOSP rom for phone which original had it. So..... any magical luck that the codec is within those files and not just the bluetooth hardware chip? may be it will work for us. Thanks ......It's really good, can't live without.
Measurement proof of apt-X better than SBC. download the webinar from http://www.prismsound.com/test_measure/webinars.php?wid=19

[q] finally! Tv video output>>>> donation

one distinct advantage the galaxy s comes with is tv output, which is why i bought the phone and i use it frequently. BUT i really want to migrate to miui because of its sexyness and simplicity.
i am willing to donate a discussable amount, for the developers to work on tv output function on the i9000 galaxy s.
i know miui is an AOSP rom, but who can make tv output happen?
cynogenmod?
miui(chinese)?
miui galnet?
so who do i need to contact and who do i arrange this donation with, if i want the tv output uploaded to miui or miui galnet.
I feel as though TV output is entirely forgotten, but if it is applied it would benefit me and everyone else b
If CM could do it, it would be done already. Drivers are needed, maybe Steve Kondik new job might help here :]
mmmhm
good point. so your saying if cynogenmod uploads it then other roms will sart uploading it also?
maybe i should contact steve, afterall he is hired by samsung. he can make it happen.

[DEV] Atrix : Voodoo Sound similar method / Its a WM8993!

Hello all,
According to my depth researches, I'v summed up bits into a package:
- Atrix MB860 does have Wolfson WM9803L DAC chip. (1-?) (Even though all Tegra 2 AP20H should have the same SoC, but after a lot of questions, AP20H {Ventana} stands out for handheld performance (CPU, GPU), power only) Update: Wrong!
- The Asus Transformer uses Tegra 2 T20 , Wolfson WM9803L chip. Does have Voodoo sound support. Based on V1 voodoo drivers.
- I'v got into the same confusion about the 'L' in 'WMxxxxX'; The DAC is based on 2 revisions, both ends with L. Useless
- They both use same SoC implementation, very similiar drivers, nearly same headers. (Based on my own research.)
- Supercurio did not support the Atrix 4G, due its locked bootloader based on the V1 driver date of WM8903L. (So, he might not look back, Wolfson's WM1811 on the road) Update: Atrix 4G = Optimus 2x/Galaxy R
I know I might seem like asking questions, but it should also be considered as a dump project based on both devices. Plus, opening opportunities on other Tegra 2 hard/soft-ware porting.
I don't agree with the idea ignoring 1+ yr old phones with such capabilities...
I consider it just like the fame of the Gi9000, <<<Voodoo = major plus.
P.S. : Supercurio once stated that, Atrix 4G has a diff implementation... Though, after chatting over the IRC, he stated that he do not touch locked bootloader based phones. Thats totally different story. Diff implementation means indirect hardware access, using NVRAM i2c communication (registers)
Big thanks for supercurio, making our phones more valuable. Not anymore... -__-
Thank you all
I will appreciate any help/comment/feedback/correction/response.

Thats Bla bla bla above...
Conclusion: Voodoo sound is communicating with #? low level registers with the DAC. Same as what ALSA mixer do when modifying STdac (ICS leak). Unfortunately, Atrix uses OSS on GB, or barebone ALSA thought thats not a problem.
Project STATUS:
Found the right DAC, its WM8993!! Developers/Anyone try Optimus 2x Voodoo sound driver using the patch, patch it to the kernel (WIP)... Loading Voodoo Sound Plus modules didn't work :/
Alternative to Voodoo app coming soon for Atrix/Optimus2x/GalaxyR Tegra 2 Ventana
Workaround for ICS Leak kernel and Kernel 3.x (that includes tiny-ALSA), install AlsaMixer from Play, modify STDac Only While listening to music (be sure not to leave the head/earphones on) to 15. Now you can drive 300 ohms headphones (Though its still limited, shows 10db but not exact) Note: When you remove the earphones or stop music for 5 secs, settings will revert.
List of the confusing/wrong info about Tegra 2 DAC links:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1124198 Those guyz heard from Androud forums lol
http://www.head-fi.org/t/549644/moto...-sound-quality That guy heard from xda! ^
http://androidforums.com/motorola-at...ola-atrix.html Those are the guilty ones (kidding ), they referred to Tegra 250, thats Harmony used in Tablets not Vantanna 250. :silly:
Having Voodoo sound on the Atrix would be great! I had a Samsung Vibrant before my Atrix, and Voodoo sound was pretty nice! I really like how it sounded and all the settings that it had.
One that i miss for sure is the ability to make the sound mono. I haven't found how to do it on my Atrix yet.
Keep the good work dude! Hope to see it done soon! If it can be done.
I'll be glad to see voodoo sound capabilities on my atrix.Wish you can port this without any problem.

Mono can be done as a software wise.
Use Poweramp, it has the mono DSP feature.
Good luck.
As stated guys, still haven't got my Atrix, and wish me a luck getting it .91 bootloader :/
bets of luck!! and it will be one hellova feat if u can pull this off ... i have used sgs, nexus s and sgs2 with voodoo ( yes i have purchasrd it from market )... and it makes them a formidable music player rival... i'd really really love to see it for ATRIX also
My friend had this on his Samsung Galaxy Tab and I have been jealous of him ever since lol. I was hoping someone would port it but had given up. I'm glad to see someone is on the case!

Guys, I need your help.
Test this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zausan.zdevicetest&hl=en
Or at Play store: Z-DeviceTest
I wan't an info about the DAC. Since i still don't have my Atrix 4G.
Just curious about the WM8903, this info was based on some rumors, a confirmation surely helps, since most tegra 2 ap20h are based on WM8990
EDIT: My Atrix is comming after 2 days...
what to check with that app ?

Yes I already read it
However, the last link was a guess before the Atrix release i guess, though, what they said is about the Tegra 250 T20 not the A20HP...
All T20 has the WM8903L, while all the A20HP has the WM8990. Thats the confusing part, however, when i get the Atrix, Ill be analyzing the implementation they are using... Might be indirect driver, but i dont think so (Inside a SoC=Direct)
Confusing topic also: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/shenit-com/18404-tegra-t250-vs-tegra-t20-same-thing.html
What also worries me about the Moto X2. It does have Tegra 2 Ventana. No voodoo sound support, or at least DAC lookout. I don't think there is any A20HP with WM8903 (Does moto play with the sound layer? It should be strict since its a SoC)
I'm not sure between an implementation fault, or lack of support (VoodooSound author). (Though the GS is old)...
Dude, tell me if there is any way i can help you. This is something i really want to help with this project.
Now this is the way for the diff. between T20/T2 ...
http://www.toradex.com/Products/Colibri/Modules/Colibri-T20
And guys, this thread is leaning towards dumping, which clarification can be simplified by yes or no (nothing new), due to poor documentation etc...
And please, can anyone test this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zausan.zdevicetest&hl=en
It only shows the DAC name on SoC based systems...
Worked with Galaxy R. Result: WM8990 ...
Can't wait to get the Atrix. I'm eager about it...
Plus, I won't lean to the software part, only hardware.
In case it needs to be re-developed, I will work only on the driver. (More to C orientation / kernel...)
Edit: okay, thanks Night Walker! ! For testing the app
Okay guys,
Anybody owns one of these devices except the Atrix:
T2-A20HP:LG Optimus 2X, Motorola Atrix 4G, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola Photon, Samsung Galaxy R, Samsung Captivate Glide
Other: i9023, i9000, Galaxy Tab.
If yes, try the same app above, seems the only app that shows the chip info through alsa...
O2X uses different implementation, thats why supercurio gave a deep shot supporting it, even though, it only supports bits of the original voodoo capabilities...
Can't wait for the new Kaudio driver, might work with the Atrix with no SoC mods.
Just another sound driver made specifically for voodoo. (LG uses its own implementation to the DAC, its driver)

K, the Atrix 4G has a different driver...
Tpr0,
I'm unfortunately not a dev, but is there any way I can help with this project?
Guys, sorry for the delay, got ill. And yes, I know your intentions towards support...
I still haven't got my hands 'tight' on the project, got distracted by setting it up... (the Atrix kernel compilation errors)
Anyways, thanks guys, it certainly needs a (low level dev. me) I'm not a high-level programmer, more into hardware level (intermediate) But this project doesn't seem hard to accomplish, but poor documentation does it... ( IT is based on low level programming )

Nexus 5 - aptX

Hi guys, i saw a couple of posts asking about whether nexus 5 supports apt-X or not, i've bought a LGS-730 bluetooth headset and i can confirm that nexus 5 doesn't have the necessary codec to run apt-X. For those who don't know, apt-X is simply a codec that makes bluetooth headsets sound better and without lag. So, no apt-X with nexus 5. Im kinda dissapointed since htc one and S4 all have this codec, but whatever.
I believe LG G2 supports apt-X but not N5. We can't have everything with only 399$

It's just a codec though from what I cab read on the OP. I'm sure a dev can port it from the g2 if anything. I don't think codecs are really that much more expensive lol.

Yes, Nexus 5 support APT-X
You can download the file here:

Nothing will do it, first you need a working TWRP, secondly you need a dev that would do active support. Forget about it, Moto G6 (ALI) has no developers interest in this phone model.

The G6 has been out since just May, what are you talking about? Most people in the Moto G series had G5S+'s where there's a **** load of development for and decided that the G6 wasn't enough of an upgrade for them to make the change, but there will always be a potential for new Devs to come to a device. I'll take this over to Android Forums for all I care and crowd source over there, there's always been a desire from up and coming Devs to work on low end phones over there, I bet anything someone will be willing to Dev on a donate device, especially a mid range.

Treble GSI's are the future for our phone. i already had RR booting and working with the official GSI available on the project treble forums. TWRP works, it just needs some kinks worked out before the broad public uses (have to wipe data to put files on internal memory, and some people have had success with forceencrypt/dm verity disabling)

Just for sake of discussion, doesn't Treble offer less feature implementation when it comes to actual device hardware to software "connectivity" [for lack of a better word] in other words little hardware side things that could be tweaked by the user with CyanogenMod builds per say?

im not exactly sure what you mean by that but i assume any hardware issues (i've really only noticed some bugginess with bluetooth audio) can be fixed with a custom system image based on an official GSI.

Yeah, right...I meant like more system side like deeply modified frameworks and stuff and things that have been modded in the system like tweaks to things like active or "live display" or whatever. Other things like how notification LED functions and tweaks to the make camera actions snappier...I know there's more...I guess a better way to describe it is things that Xposed would do, but built into a ROM. Treble isn't enabling those things is it? Since it's just a software update that's entirely parallel to a phones hardware?
Thanks, that is what I want to hear ?
Good to know some of you were able to boot GSI's already. I maintain RR for another Moto device. Once I get the bootloader unlocked, I'll work towards getting us up and running with RR

New to XDA - excited to learn more about rooting my device, but also keen to learn more about ASHA support

Good day, fine folks at XDA!
My name is Charles Schultz. I picked up my first Android device the summer of 2021, a cheap Umidigi A9. Their support absolutely sucks! However, they also sent me an additional A9 for free, so I am happy to give rooting a try since I have a spare device.
My biggest problem right now is that the A9 does not support ASHA and streaming to my hearing aids (Jabra Enhance Pro). The Jabras seem to only be compatible with devices that have Bluetooth 5.0 and greatere (check), support for BLE (check), and ASHA ( ). From what I have read so far, Android 10 and up provides support for ASHA, so I have to infer that Umidigi has not baked ASHA support into their branded version of Android. I have been asking them for quite some time for help, but Umidigi support is REALLY BAD(tm).
I am an IT professional who tinkers with various languages and feels quite at home with Linux. Rooting an entire Phone OS seems very daunting, but also exciting at the same time. I am anxious to dip my toes into the XDA waters.
Thanks to all of you who help make XDA such a rich resource for the rest of us.
