Audio mod idea question. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I haven't had this phone long enough to really dig into the is, but I am wondering weather or not it's theoretically possible to keep the boom sound headphone amp, but remove the stupid beats eq, I love that beats raises the volume of my cans, but I can't stand that it screws with the eq levels, and would like to use my phone without having to flatten the sound manually with power amp

Volume boost

Is there an app to boost system volume. I found one for when the headphones are connected but not for without. Its no where near as loud as my tilt2 was with xda

I believe it does

I'm looking to boost system volume. Even this app wasn't enough. Maybe the speaker is just weaker than i anticipated thus the headphone jack.
Audio boost here and Free!!! (pay donate if u want)
Ive looked around and found one that can increase yr volume its called Galaxy Tuner, on android market, maybe for Galaxy phs i dont know just try it, but to get the volume use the equalizer! use slider 100db 80-90% up for a bit more bass,but manly use these 2 sliders 875db and 2400db to round 70% any more will just distort sound, it will be a bit more tinny sound but louder great for shap noises like bird ring tones or sounds like sirens etc just play around but dont go max its crappy distortion! and u can save setting under what ever name! NOTE: using head phones will sound better, but make a setting "For Head Phones" and a setting "For External Speaker"

[Request]Beats Audio Software?

Can we port over beats audio to this device?
Voodoo is all we need. Poweramp helps a bit too. Beats is just a marketing name that has no real advantage. Trust me you don't want what they got.

I think its more hardware than software. If possible would be outstanding.

Yep...GUI might not appealing to most though.
I think personally with voodoo controls and my beats earbuds it sounds better than my cousins iphone4.

We want beats audio lol. Would like to try it on NS.
My HP touchpad has that stupid Beats audio and it sucks. My Nexus S with sony headphones (MDR-ex300sl) and Voodoo + DSP Manager sound wayyyyy better than Beats.

No "we" don't. Beats is nothing but anecdotal garbage.
All "Beats Audio" is, is a multiband compressor much like all the other "audio enhancement" crap (i.e Creative X-FI Crystalizer, Alpine's Media Expander, Sony's DM+ Advanced, etc), making certain frequencies louder at the cost of others. Which incidentally reduces both clarity and soundstage. Unfortunately, human hearing can sometimes perceive louder volume as better sound.

Particularly in the case of beats, and bass is pumped up at the severe cost of mid and high tones. Which is why I don't use my wife's beats headphones.

NS w/Voodoo is better than Sensation w/Beats. I can't wait to come back to Samsung.

I don't know .. i think maybe i'm doing something wrong .. when i plug-in my Nexus to the car via AUX cable then the bass is so hard .. treble is good then i plug-in my friends HD7 with SRS on and it's SOOOOOO much better or is it just my placebo?
I have Voodoo installed with the bass boost on :S

Can anyone point me towards the "best" Voodoo sound settings. It should be good for loudspeaker and headsets.

Best EQ settings?

Hello,
I'm wondering what EQ settings are best for all types of music.?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Use your ears. Some people like to have a lot of bass, and some like to have small amounts or even none. Plug your headphones in and adjust it until you like how it sounds on different songs and genres.
I don't use EQ. Makes my life simple. The settings in Voodoo control is enough for my ears.

The ones picked by the recording engineer during the tracking session.
I prefer a flat EQ a well, but that is because I want to hear the track how the artists/engineers intend. I have ultimate ears triple fi 10 in-ears and they sound amazing. But it takes some getting used to the sound since most people are not used to hearing super clear mids and highs
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Save up for decent equipment and use no EQ at all. DSP effects ruin sound fidelity. As mentioned above, get used to listening to music the way it was intended by the artists and sound engineers that recorded it.
And here I was staying on Cm7 just for the DSP manager

I add bass, lots of it, but maybe I should stop using DSP
also Alan, DSP can be had on any ROM I'm on touchwiz ATM
(If you download Root toolbox you can find it in the 'other ' section then flash it)

The bass seeing in power amp with the preamp turned up

Anyone else prefer Beats Audio OFF?

I find the sound clearer and crispier in my car with the beats off.
i guess u have problems with your hearing. just saying lol
i can, in every way, deny that audio is better with beats off.
UNLESS,
you're using a third party player
Maybe it's because you have the hissing background noice when beats is enabled. The 1.29 update fixed that (I guess, have notreceived it yet)
But in general, I don't think beats off is better than on.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Definitely sounds better with Beats On IMO. I had hissing audio until I turned NFC off. If I use it in my car through Bluetooth, I turn the Car Stereo EQ off and leave Beats on.
Hell no beats all the way
With speakers or earphones, i Think beats benefits the Sound...

hmm, could be my upgraded fender's bass not working well with beats...
I've noticed that the volume level is louder with beats disabled, but to my ears it definitely sounds better with beats enabled.
I find dance music sounds great with beats on but if you put on rock/indie music it's better to switch beats off I think it sounds better. I've downloaded pro player so I can have the sound that suits the music I'm listening to, much better imo.

I used to but beats in the HTC one is great.

referencing the speakers on the phone, with beats on, the sound is more full and stereo imaging is greatly improved. with beats off, i've noticed it's louder but a more harsh and tinny.

How do we make the headphone volume louder?

Contemplating picking up an AT&T N3, but I know the headphone volume is extremely low. Is there a way similar to volume mods that can make the freaking headphone volume go louder? The volume seems horribly low on this device with several different pairs of headphones. I know the T-Mobile variant is just as low, but they can flash volume mods on theirs.
Install poweramp from the playstore... go into the equalizer settings and boost the preamp level and adjust the others to suit your liking. Save it as a preset and apply it to the audio outputs of your choice..

Thanks, but does that actually make the headphone genuinely louder like flashing a volume mod?
Yeah I need this two. Movies play so softly on the headphones.

If you're rooted I recommend ViPER4Android. You won't be disappointed.

Ditto. Very good program.
I've just found a VERY GOOD APP that is WAY better than POWERAMP : TTPod ( no need to root the phone )
It really helps enhance the sound quality via bluetooth in my car. Try it out.
