Louder Volume Hack v3.6

Requirements: Android
Overview: The speaker itself isn’t of the highest quality but the Android Community wanted to squeeze as much as possible from it. A project then came along to improve the audio quality and volume and hence AudioHack was born.
* NO NEXUS SUPPORT EVER
v3.6
* Now includes Widgets!
* Please run app before widget
* App may require a restart

Nice idea. I installed it, tried IC2 and IC3 and neither seam to show a difference. Perhaps a more detailed guide needs to be created? Aside from your color chart, the rest is kind of foreign to me.

Interesting concept, care to explain a bit more about how this works (some have said they have noticed no difference) ?

100% working just flash the rom one more time and chk

cool man,I need sth like that for my subwoofer

Thanks, I'll be trying this out shortly.

Always wanted a louder speaker on Android. WM7 seemed louder with same mp3 as ringtone then Android.

Looked for "Audio Booster" in the Market. Nada. Does it have another name? Or should I look somewhere else?
Thanks.

any chance for some version for Nexus?

What a shame no nexus support :s

Does not work for me. I get an error message that tells me to restart the app, I do and i get the same message.

Working fine on SD Desire HD

I know this is posted in the HD2 section but when you say "NO NEXUS SUPPORT" are you referring to the Nexus One phone, or Nexus based builds?

They are saying Nexus builds are not supported and never will be. There must be something in those that is incompatible with this .

produces no effect on desire HD :-(
for those who have a phone with which it works, there is an update 4.1

(MOD)(PORT)Beats Audio&Xloud(2.3+up) by RockoDev

RockoDev has ported beats audio to all gingerbread roms. Can anyone on gingerbread confirm if this works on our device? (MOD)(PORT)Beats Audio&Xloud(2.3+up) thanx

I confirm. It's working.

I made a better build with correct system mount that works on CM9(ICS)/Gingerbread:

Should I flash this or does it have any disadvantages?

OK, flashing went well, but I'm not sure that there are some benefits
There is no on/off, so it's hard to compare from memory

I don't trust it, but maybe I'll test it after a few reviews. There could be any disadvantages. I can't imagine this will make the sound really better...

You can hear the best improvement with high quality headphones! And with original Beats Audio one ^^ (But of course also with lower cost ones )

The audio seems to be much clear

confirmed too

I tested it now, too and the sound has really more power.

does the improvment apply only to music (speaker/headphones) or is the earpiece/headset quality also improved (call quality) ?

I don't know. The audio (music) isn't clearer only more bass. It's too much, so I remove it again.

How this works without replacing existing system files?
I recorded the sound via audio jack with and without beats audio mod to compare the differences. Audio levels and spectrogram are exactly the same...

I asked me that, too, but I don't know. Maybe it's only louder and so placebo?

It makes difference in headset when play music or video.

Yep, working great for me too

Well if not satisfied, there are other options for sound freaks - DSP Manager from CM is included in DjangoManouche 1.0, works great with (also included) Google Music. There is a free Equalizer app on Market. Even LG stock music player has some decent presets. Choices, choices...
Anyway, respect to fuss132

I'm on Temasek's Kang 69. Is there any difference whether I flash this or the original one from Fuss132?

The original port was by RockoDev. I have edited the OP and put the link to his thread. (RockoDev's zip file can be flashed on ICS too)
I am not sure whether this works or not. Supercurio has stated that it doesnt.
supercurio said:
Tested, with a precise and valid methodology I use in my work and reviews
All it does is strictly no change in audio output.
If you claiming you're improving sound quality while implicitly asking for donations (aka [Donate to me] button) I strongly suggest you to bring some elements supporting your assumptions.
I might add that by distributing random files and libs you're violating several manufacturers copyrights and intellectual property.

Audio is something special.
When you say there is an improvement, people tend to listen closer and perceive something different even if it doesn't exist.
That's called placebo.
All I'm asking is intellectual honesty in order to not abuse of this many times proven fact.
I also think placebo-mods are affecting negatively everyone's work and also the confidence XDA users have in developers.
The solution is simple: It improves audio? That can be measured then!
If you can't measure it, it means it does nothing.
Me, I measured, Galaxy S II. found it wasn't working. It's not an opinion or a critic. It's a fact.

[Q] Bravia,xLoud and other enhancements

Any 1 here have seen these enhancements working? Specially Bravia, xLoud and beats. Well I just felt it once in BPaul's rom where xLoud was screaming like hell but again not sure for Bravia. I have my own doubts that it will work in current form. I mean why just an apk or few system files replacing will give you ability to use Sony's petent technology in any android device? Same for HTC beats, looks again misleading. I think there are system wide files/libs to make them work and a bit hardware support too. Anyways I want to hear from you guys.

Well bpaul coded it into his ROMs and also added ALL necessary files and permissions. About bravia, I think it doesnt work on other phones. At least i never saw any difference. I think that has to do with hardware, which is able to use those features, like retina display on apple devices. Others cant, even if the software is working correctly

[Q] DSP Manager on rooted device

Is it possible to flash DSP Manager on my HTC One?
I'm currently running MaximusHD 21.0.0.
I've spent a day trying to find a good alternative.
But none of them have satisfied me.
Spent the last hours searching for a solution,
but didn't find a good one.
I can drop beats if that's what it takes.
Thanks!

Sure. You'd need to install the apk, but I'd be wary of using flashable zips intended for other devices. I have an old apk. However, it may have changed or been updated since the last time I grabbed it.

The thing is that the newer versions(from 1 or 2 years back) have dependencies(libraries and stuff).
The old one works as an apk. But all improvements from CM 9 & CM 10 are missing in that one.
That why I'm looking for a way to flash it. It seems to work for some people, but not for HTC One & Sense.

Sure DSP manager will work. I have a flashable zip, which I can upload the next time I'm on my pc. But do you want a better alternative? Try viper4android, and I promise you won't be disappointed. If you want it the easy way, download it from the play store instead of the thread.

I was looking at the Viper app, but it's more then I need. I really only need is a nice, simple non-bloat Equalizer.
My pair of Shure SE535 and HTC One sounds amazing together as they are.
But I want the ability to turn up the low end, high mids and turn down the high end
when listening to trance/chillout to get better ambiance and smoother sound.
Would really appreciate if you could upload it later!
Thanks!
Edit: Actually seeing the screenshots themselves instead of the bloated thread made me want to look it up anyway.
But when searching for viper4android I only get weird asian versions.

Looks really clean and simple now when I look at it.
Not at all like these mods ususally are.
Skip the DSP. Thanks for making me take a second look!

[SoundFx] ExtremeBeats + Viper4Android

Hello Everyone,
I would like to share with you'll a Sound Mod that will bring a Magical music listening experience on CyanogenMod12.1/AOSP Roms. This Mod will effect the entire audio system of the phone (Calls, Music, Videos, External speakers). This Mod has been my daily drive since last 2years and glad it does well for Moto G3 too.
This thread is just a consolidation of procedure suited well for Moto G3 . All credits to the developers linked in original thread. Tested working fine on CM12.1 nightly dated 20151030 and Motorola's Stock ROM.
So here you go, "ExtremeBeats SoundFx with Viper plugin".
Requirments: ExtremeBeats, Viper4Android, SElinuxChanger, TWRP/CWM Recovery.
Precautions: Disable any other Mod or Audiofx you been using before you proceed. Else things may conflict and not work as intended.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any Soft/Hard Brick. Though this has been tested working fine by me, failing to comply with the procedure might result in mess. Try at your own risk.
Original Thread: ExtremeBeats , Viper4Android and SelinuxChanger
Steps:
Download "ExtremeBeats v4.0 Muses.zip" (Recommended Version) from Original thread and flash it via recovery.
Download "SElinux Changer". Open it and change SeLinux mode to permissive.
Download and install "Viper4Android" (version 2.3.3.0 recommended). Open it and install drivers. Make a Normal Reboot (No quick reboot).
Download Equalizer profiles attached in the attachment. Unzip the contents to Internal Storage. (These are Viper EQ profiles customized by me).
Load Effect profile of your choice (Vj Multiplex recommended). Enjoy Magical Music experience. Cheers..!
UPDATE : For Marshmallow, the viper profile path is different from lollipop. Follow the new path

Yes it will work on other ROMs based on CyanogenMod.
Extreme Beats is not an app. Its a set of audio libraries that control the sound system of the phone. This gets flashed onto your system. Viper is an equaliser app that goes best to enhance the power of extreme beats. So only viper will be visible in app drawer.

its working & what is the best IRS for your EQ Profile?

the sound on my sony headphones is to low with viper i dont know why. I use dolby atmos and dolby for a good high volume

Give ExtremeBeats a try. Also verify your viper driver status to be yes.

IRS is set in my eq profile. Just load the downloaded profile. And DDC I haven't set bcz sound effect varies across different earphone makers. I use SoundMagic ES18 earphones. Going good. But the earphones that come with Yu Yureka cyanogen phone are superior and mind blowing. Give it a try if you get it.

is all good says suported and yes and i tried with extremebeats extreammusic to and nothing the sound is low when start to processing the bass is just put down all volume and i tried my headphones on an ipod and pc and a samsung and the sound is loud (more onde ipod and the pc) but when i use the dolby the sound y loud and clear but i like the option that viper give to work the audio.

Then I guess those earphones are not compatible with moto g3.
I have noticed this case. Certain earphones don't commonly suit all and instead suit only specific phones. Particularly the Samsung earphones I faced having compatibility issues.

And what earphones, in ear, or headphones do you recomend for me? im from argentina and have to be some common brand like sony, sneheiser, phillips, panasonic, or something like that

I'd say. Don't go for phone maker earphones. Because most the cases they don't go compatible across other phones.
Instead look for music edition earphones like Senheiser, SoundMagic.
I am using SoundMagic ES18. It's going very good. But the earphones from Cyanogen phone maker Yureka was excellent. Had a real feeling of sitting in a multiplex using those. Unfortunately those earphones are not available as external accessories instead are made available only with the phone.
In the end, I'd say try before buy

Its working in MX player but sometime it goes turnoff automatically and driver status processing is no... How to enable ?

Ok, I can't read any more of this.....you are obviously making things up here. There is no such thing as 'incompatible headphones'....EVER. Not with this phone, not any phone, and not a single audio device which uses a 3.5mm jack. IT DOES NOT EXIST!!!! There may be issues with ones which use 2 contacts rather than 3 on the plug, but this is far from a total incompatibility. They will still work.
Please stop spreading misinformation. It's not helping anyone.

When you haven't encountered an issue doesn't mean there isn't a issue. I have tried Samsung earphones and they don't give best sound like they give with their own phones. Also iPod earphones don't go compatible , you will find drop in audio. By saying incompatible I mean they don't deliver 100% output and not that they don't totally work.
The connector etc is visually compatible. But logically not compatible.
Next time, before passing harsh comments get and anylse things first. Just because you got a tongue to blab don't do it here. At least not on the thread I run.
Give respect , take respect and be kind in your words rather being poky.

I've used apple earbuds and I've never experienced audio drop. Perhaps it's an issue with your mod then? It's definitely not an incompatibility with the hardware or the factory firmware.

Be happy with your conclusion. I am not interested in arguing. What I experienced I have shared the guy. In end I suggest the guy to try before buy.
I won't say all apple/samsung earphones would be incompatible. Because i am not that rich to get earphones of all apple models. I had an opportunity to try few earphones of different phones outta which I found some earphones go low but best with their own phones.
And if mod is the defect then I got the moto earphones too. There is no drop.
Thanks for the scene...!

There are clearly 2 differing opinions here. Whether either is right or not is unlikely to be determined here. What is of a concern is the fact that this is becoming an argument being played out in public.
So, let's get back on topic, constructively and cordially. It would be a shame to kill this thread off for all the wrong reasons.
Thanks
