Is there a way I can get the default xperia equalizer to work in every music app, including when I play somethig on bluetooth. I was thinking of installing Xaudio but i still don't know if my rom (xperienz kk) is deodexed

I generally feel that the sound quality through headset on Sammy roms are crisp and clear than on cm9 or aokp roms, I just require user opinion on this
THank you
Might be due to DSP Manager on CM9. Turn it completely off as it doesn't work really well right now.
Sound IS better on CM9, and I want to know why... and apply that to an stock rooted ROM...
I've been searching and searching, I've installed DSP Manager on an Stock rooted rom XXLA1/XXLC1 (DBT) and it sounds exactly the same.
I start the app, and it doesn't require root permissons, and is not listed on the granted apps on SuperUser...
How can we improve sound quality, the same way CM9 rom does it?

Use PowerAmp to play music. It's the best music player right now. The equalizer and tone control it very good for me to play music.
I've used it for several weeks, but the sound quality I can achiveve is MILES away from the sound out-of-the-box that CM9 provides... That's the reason of this topic...
By the way, what are the values you put on PowerAmp Equalizer?
I'm interested in how the stock equalizer is structured. I know it's not bound to Walkman, but there is no way to access it as a stand-alone app. At least that's what it looks like. So how does it work and what role does MusicFX play?

Hello ! As you all know Sound quality has been terrible on our Z1 since Lollipop came out and Sony has done nothing to fix it so now i have gotten enough and i wanna do something about it myself. I have been reading lots about sound mods and have been comparing them with others but i cant seem to find good one to fit my purposes so i decided to ask here. Im not looking for stereo mod or anything speaker related or like that, i just wanna get the true power what it is capable to produce to my headset like on KK and to be able to adjust the equalization and bass etc like we used to before Walkm... i mean Music app sound enchantments stopped working.. i have XPhonePlus Module from XPosed to enable old audio modes but its currently broken or something since doesnt work...
So basicly im looking for audio mod that:
- Brings back the volume that we had in KK. (In LP its much lower volume.)
- Makes equalization working again. (After LP, had never worked, not in Music beta or the not beta one)
- Makes surround work again (--||--)
- As good bass without losing quality as possible
- Being able to keep the sound enchantments in other apps too not just music app
- Works on stock rom
- As stable as possible, im not really good updater.
- Needs to be able to change settings on the fly. (on LP sometimes equalizer settings take effect on reboot)
I know all my requirements arent necessary possible but just something that way !
I have Bluetooth headset and wired one and i use both so it needs to work on both. i listen mostly electronic so extra bass related mod is never a minus. Im not looking to change music app since i like it so that is not an option.
Im taking suggestions and im gonna pick the best one based on popularity and comments so please share your favourite mod here an i will check it out !
Also im a noobie so i might need instructions i have root ofc and nuts recovery and xposed. im on .270 5.0.2 LP

I'm gonna try to answer :3
1. Edit your mixer_paths.xml, need root, there is also many guide in XDA
2. Equalizer works correctly, I don't know why you have such problem xD
3. Surround works too, but only when using headset/headphone.
4. This need headset/headphone with nice sound range too, you can +bass from stock Equalizer, I'm used Poweramp and Poweramp equalizer + Sony equalizer
5. Sony Sound Effect have a global effect for your speaker and also from another sound media too, but I don't know about surround effects (didn't try this so much) xD
EDIT: It's works on Poweramp, just tested it :3
EDIT2: It's not working on Poweramp, it's "blank" sound, sorry xD
EDIT3: Got a fix, must disable Direct Volume Control and enable MusicFX and you will get Surround Sound effect xD
6. I'm on Sony stock L ROM build .270, rooted
7. Nothing bads, if you know what are you doing xD
8. Sony Equalizer no need reboot to take effect, it's immediate :3
I don't like use Viper or another Sound Mod like that, it's useless (for me), since Sony already have in build Sound Effect. I'm only used nice headphone (not high res), modified mixer_paths.xml and Poweramp. :3
Hello guys, this isn't nothing new probably but I just found it. Many of you used Xperia phones before and all of you(just like me) loved Xperia launcher with it's goodies(especially Walkman with all the audio enhancements and tweaks). Here's good news: you can have it on Mate7! Stock music player is quite good but lack of equalizer and sound enhancements is unforgivable. There's ported app which actually works on Mate7(i am running it on newest lollipop b317):

Just follow the instruction and you'll be alright. Bootloader unlocked and root required
If you have root, Viper4AndroidFX is the best possible audio mod for the Mate. It works well with Poweamp. I was using the Sony music app in my THL but went back to Poweramp as the Sony random function wasn't so random. It was like using the same playlist all the time.
Viper sounds great in the Mate
Has anyone found a way to disable/remove the additional bass to all audio (on Stock ROM). Sometimes it's great but for music it's sometimes downright terrible.
Try tinkering with the AudioWizard settings.
If no luck, try your music player's EQ settings or Viper4android.

I've used viper before and I love it but for personal reasons I don't want to leave the stock ROM or do any flashing. The audiowizard has very lackluster options which don't provide a very useful description which make it hard to figure out what the bass and treble slider actually do, as they don't seem to impact the extra bass at all.
You don't need to leave stock ROM for using V4A.
The latest V4A .apk is available to install from XDA labs.
Another option, is to try the VLC media player's native equaliser (works just for music/ video files during VLC play).

I would but I can't do that without root and I'm sort of not keen on that as I've heard magisk is more unstable and not a garenteed passt for safety net (I use Google pay alot)
In that case, try any one of the top-rated volume/ bass adjusting apps via Play store - see if it does the job for you.
VLC media player has it's own equaliser.
You can freeze/ disable AudioWizard via stock settings, or try SD-maid or Titanium.

DO NOT FREEZE AudioWizard! Device will panic on boot then reboot to recovery.

Thank you for this info. I was genuinely not aware of this.
I've had a couple of nightmare situations where the ROG3 would shut-down (power-off) by itself every time I powered it on - I thought this was because of a rogue app/ magisk module or perhaps a virus; I ended up doing a factory reset eventually to recover my phone.
