X1 has 3 Speakers !??

Hey Guys
I found out something interesting. I downloaded this freeware audio routing software for using the earpiece for sip softwares like skype which normally send their autput audio through the loudspeaker and not the normal speaker for calls.
http://www.teksoftco.com/storage/download.php?product=audioroute_ppc
now the interesting thing is that this software has 3 possible speaker choices
one is the internal the other the external and speakerphone that when is activated u hear music from xperia in a greeat quality and really high volume. It sound like stereo speakers. I am really wondering how many speakers has xperia? and why normally the music doesnt come out like this but in a very low quality. ???
suggestions welcome

Most likely two...the ear piece speaker and the speaker phone speaker.
I don't think there's an internal speaker like on the Ipod Nano.

so, your'e saying that you found a way to enhance the inside speaker??
Cool !
For as far as i heard, there is a mono speaker built in, and there where plans to make it stereo..

I just gave this a try, it does produce sound from the ear piece speaker on one of the settings and while it is a much better quality sound it is far too quiet to make a difference or to listen to, you actually need to put the phone to your ear to hear it.
Shame, I was hoping it would flesh out the poor sounding loudspeaker

This guy didn't find 3 speakers.

I also had my xperia taken apart and couldn't see any other speakers. you can't always trust a software. if its programmed to say there are three speakers it will say there are three. also you have to look with which phones it is compatible

ok now try this
leave a song playing and from the software change from earpiece to speaker phone (The order is VERY important) so first put the audio to play in ur earpiece(first icon) then put it into the speakerphone (last icon) and u will hear a very loud music in a good quality. then if u change to the second icon u will hear the normal very low quality.
there is a huuuge difference

Ok, will give it a try later, so in theory it will be playing from both the ear piece and the loudspeaker, with the ear piece giving it a bit more oomph.
Will this work with the ring tone too???
This could be the final piece of the puzzle to make my Xperia perfect

Not true.

Not true.

Ok that does it ...
The first thing when i get home is to make a video and upload it on youtube ... till later

this app is very bad...can't shut it down, speaker on and stuck there.
edit: okay, to shut it down you have to press the first icon and the little bar below is for moving it around.

the last icon did play with both speakers on. there is no 3rd speaker. first icon for the earpiece, second icon for speakerphone, and last icon for both. IT DOESN'T MAKE A BIG DIFF. Can you hear the earpiece loud? NO...

Strange ... for me it does ... but u have to pass from the earpiece (first icon) to the last icon ... and another icon will appear telling that speakerphone is ON and during this time the music is really much louder and in a much better quality.

like i said...the last icon is playing with both earpiece and speaker on. that's it.

Would the incall volume of the ear piece speaker make a difference...mind is set to the lowest so maybe when the sound is played through the ear piece that's why it's quiet.
What incall volume are you guys phones set too

carefull, you can burst your earpiece speaker with this.

hmm actually i dont think so ... because the higher volume doesnt come from the earpiece but from the normal output sound... only that is amplified and much better quality

Agreed, but there are only two speakers. Earpiece and mono loudspeaker.
The HTC Touch Pro2 has 3 speakers.

actually im thinking there might be three ... the one which is mono might have 2 speakers inside one low quality for music and ringtones and another good quality for loudspeaker during calls ... and is activated only when using loudspeaker during a call ... (u will see the same icon and notification that speakerphone is active)
but i really like the sound ... is like my laptop

Lots of crackle on other end when HTC One on speaker

Hey guys,
If during a call I put my HTC on speaker, the person on the other hears a lot more whitenoise / background crackle than normal (I think all sound captured through the HTC mic gets louder for the other side). Does anyone experience this or have I got a faulty unit?

I had a similar problem HTC one, had to RMA it for repair, HTC replace the upper main board which house the microphone.
Do you have problem when taking picture with Zoe and video recording? Mine was not record any sound but crackle and noise. All of these problem relate to a defective microphone.

Just tried recording a video for the first time - seems OK, a bit soft but not sure if that's a defect. So in your case, was it that normally the other person could hear you fine, but if you put the One on speaker the other person would suddenly hear more background crackle?

Yes normal phone call was ok. When put on speaker phone the other end only have bad static noise and crackle. Bad static noise and crackle when recording video and taken zoe picture. Seems like you may not have my issues since you can record video with sound ok.

Ah OK Do you still have issues with crackle when on Speaker? I really don't want to do another RMA, done about 7 so far, so if its just a feature of the Ones then I'll just live with it

[Q] [Mod]Use Second Speaker on Xperia Z for Stereo Sound (Like Tablet Z)

Hey Dudes/Dev's
What i want:
I want to Create a Mod which us allow to use the Front Speaker+Side Speaker for Stereo Music
See Attached Pic...
I have tested the Loudness of the Front Speaker and i think the Volume Level is nearly the same to the Side Speaker!(?)
I want to let the Music play over the 2 Speakers like:
Front (Call-)Speaker=Left Audio Channel + Side (Loud-)Speaker=Right Channel=Stereo!?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steps:
-1. Find files which include the Speaker config. Maybe lib-so files?
-2. Find the right way to edit. Maybe i can compare the files between Tablet Z and Xperia Z to find the diffrence?
-#. Edit files to -> Playing Music-> 2 Speaker's active (2 Channels Left-Right),Call Option1-> 1 Speaker active,Call Option2-> 2 Speaker active
-3. Find a Way to make both Speaker's to the same Loudness Level
maybe more...
I really don't know what's needed for this so Please Help!
BR

Good idea

Another excellent idea, though sound when watching movies is allready pretty good, true stereo imaging would be a massive plus.
Good luck with this

Thanks Guys!:fingers-crossed: only a thing of time
To bad that here is still no Dev. Section for things like that. This Thread will go fast to the last pages,and no one will see
BR:angel:

Sounds like a good idea but then again, earpiece is not nearly as powerful as the main speaker and can result in funny stereo audio lol FYI, the stereo speaker positions are a bit weird
In order to achieve in what you want, we need to route all audio playback to play on two channels which is the earpiece and speaker at the same time. We can either do this on a specific configuration file or kernel modifications. I am not sure how to do this as I haven't tried before but it's a start
It's too bad that Sony did not make two speakers positioned like the HTC one... Would of been epic...

you have amazing brain

wow didnt see you Replied to this thread nice to hear from you...
It's really bad with the Speaker Position... sometimes my right hand mute the Speaker
but back to the idea... it's like you say,the Earpiece is not really Powerful (It's a really Clear Speaker,but no Bass) so you think it's not loud enough for stereo? Maybe we can use it to Support the other speaker (more Virtual Sound or such,i think you know whats good )
The Point is still to find out how we can use the second speaker :crying:
the only idea i have is to find the related files and watch the same files on a Stereo Speaker Tablet to see what we need to change...
when it works we have really found a General Mod for a lot of Devices with low Volume Speaker Devices.

You won't find any related files which will route your speaker and earpiece together.
We need to re-route the audio playback with earpiece and speaker activated at the same time to make both speakers to sound like stereo. If you compare with Tablet Z, you will not find anything because the configurations for that is to route audio playback to both the speaker components and if we do that then it still won't work because we don't have that 2nd speaker.
If we can re-route the speakers into stereo, then we can manually increase the earpiece to make it sound as loud as the main speaker
This is just an idea remember, I don't actually know how we will do this

Any progress on this excellent idea?

Was just using My Mix 2 with this Method of Speaker usage and was remembering You and this Thread... It is so Popular right now, sad we don't have the Patent on it Mate :laugh: Loved to use Your work back in the Days <3
Just in Theory. If i would Create a Modern Smartphone... You would be the Man for the Audio Stuff. Giving 100% freedom in creativity and access to OEM exclusive Sources and Knowledge. I can Image that Device would be Mindbreaking...

I noticed this on my moto x 2014.. What do you think.. is this a defective mobile .. should go for replacement?

So far i didn't notice it
Are you running some kind of eq
Like the one in Play Music or something like Viper

Same for me, i tried equalizer in OFF, same distortion .. any solution ?

I have this distortion as well, with our without equalizer and for music, ringtones and speakerphone calls.

Not hearing it
I'm cranking it with many différent kinds of music just to try and get the distortion noise but im not getting any of it. Any songs or only specific ones?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JcLY5yRJpQ try this song... It was quite evident in this song.. I got a replacement and dont have this problem now

Thanks I exchanged mine and it's evident the first device speaker was flawed. This one is great now. Love this device.

Audio Bug in Oero Open Beta & Leak Beta

Sometimes when I use my headphone and switch in different songs or apps that use audio output, there will be a difference of volume between the left and right channels. I have to stop my music for about 5 seconds to recover to the normal output.

I thought i was alone who is facing this issue .

Same here, while playing games there's a lag in Bullet sounds, Thought i'm the only one.

i dont think its a bug
in the accessibility setting there is an option called
Mono Audio
turn it of and i think everything will be ok

It's definitely a bug which only exists in Oero builds. You shouldn't give up your right to enjoy stereo music to escape from facing this bug. :crying:

Moreover, sometimes the audio stops from reproducing through the speakers and reproduces from the earpiece... Have to reboot to fix it temporarily.

Hi. I have the same problem too.

as far as i know Mono Audio mean NOT stereo but only 1 speaker
so if its ENABLED thats mean you will hear from one speaker only
but DISABLE it and your stereo should be ok
i think Oneplus put this option because they have only one speaker in the phone
and to make all the sound come from it they combined the
2 stereo channels in one using this option

You misunderstood the bug. Mono Audio is disabled by default. This bug has nothing with the opinion.
