There are equalizers built in for WP 8.1 but only certain devices have the hardware to use it. What phone do you have? As far as I have been told by Nokia Reps, the Lumia 520 does not have the correct hardware for an equalizer and there will never be one for it. So I guess it just depends on what phone you have.

If i plug-in an other headset than the original X1 headset it echoes and I don't hear anything on my right side. Has someone got a solution? Or do i have to buy another one? reaction A.S.A.P. please
Is there not any software that can change bass etc. for X1?
lemme think...
easiest way is flashing a custom-rom with htc sense 2.5, it comes with an app called "audio booster" which gives you an equalizer w/ presets. most of these roms also have modded audio drivers cooked in for better sound (at least of ultrashot's dynamics i know for sure).
then there were quite some apps for win mobile, but they're are all very old by now. if you don't want to flash a sense-rom, you could search for "srs wow hd". another audio-driver, but iirc there were always problems with it...

I've had WOW HD buy now and did not work. I already have a 826x ROM. Audio booster also tried and it didn't do much. I just want to be clear about the problem, its about that i o not have the original headset of the X1 wich you get in the pack if you buy the phone, i have a completely different headset. On the right side of the headset i don't hear anything and in the other only a echo with kggg sounds.
You can use any headset you want. Rather sounds like yours is crap/broken. ^^ or hw-failure on x1. Have you tried others?
Not something you fix with installation of software.

Can it we a hardware problem? If so thn the original wouldn't work either, right?
Don't be afraid to give answers people, thanks.
yeah well, if stock is working, then it's not on the phone.
how's your headset, does it work on another device? have you really tried different headsets or just the one?
stock-headset isn't specially recognized as "original SE".

I am not using an SE headset, but the headset works on other devices pretty wel.
But I think to see another problem, when playing a song, the audio is the same as on the headset. Maybe there is a problem in the audio files? (although it sounds a little weird)

I've just ordered a Nokia 8 because I thought it ticked all my boxes, but worryingly now that I've paid for it (it hasn't arrived yet) I see that I forgot to check for AptX codec, and I use aptx bluetooth headphones extensively. GSM Arena and other spec sites say that it does not have AptX.
Schoolboy error there, but I've not owned a phone without aptx for years, going back to the Xperia Z1
Hoping for some news that it's possible, maybe with the Oreo update?
Qualcomm are bragging about how aptx is coded in silicone on the 835 too

You can change the codec to aptx Codec in dev options

A commentator on reddit claims these are null-ops on Nokia 8, that the options don't stick if you exit the menu and come back in, and they don't make any difference.
I guess Nokia just didn't pay the license fee, and due to the locked bootloader we can't twrp flash a driver file (or, can we somehow?)
I'll have to wait until I get the Oreo update to test it myself, UK hasn't got that yet
Same here, I didn't think of checking whether such an advanced phone as the N8 supported aptX...has there been any progress on this issue?
It doesn't support AptX, if you select it, leave the menu and then go back in it will have deselected it as it is unsupported.
Right and while streaming music to aptX headphones you can see that selecting aptX does not actually switch the stream, you can only switch between sbc and aac.
Maybe Pie will change that like it did on the Nokia 7 apparently...
So as far as I know the Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact is capable of Bluetooth 5.0, on other brands like Samsung with Bluetooth 5.0 you can connect 2 Bluetooth-devices at same time. As example you can listen on 2 bluetoothspeakers simultaneously. Is there any possibility to do that on Sonys Stock Software as well?
Thx in advance
Of I look on my cellphone (XPZ) there is in the Developer Option an option to change the count of BT DEVICES, but I didn't know if it's work or not
Well I tried this once before but now it worked. Now I can connect to both devices and switch audio between them and the device. So thank you:good:
Do you or anyone else know if it is possible to play audio on both aswell. In sound settings I only can switch like stated.

Meshing, connecting to multiple devices, is down to Bluetooth V5. But that doesn’t mean application developers are going to design audio streaming to multiple devices. This is pretty complicated and a bit niche, I mean why would you want to?
Hey,
I switched from the Redmi Note 4 Global to the Mi 9 lite and everything about the phone is pretty great, except the audio quality over headphones.
I am a bit shocked how terrible it is in comparison. I used my QCY T1 and the Redmi Airdots - both bluetooth - to compare and an older cable bound pair of bose truesound inears.
Issue 1:
The software equalizer just doesnt work on the mi 9 lite. You can use the dials in any music-player app without anything changing actually in the sound. I tried phonograph and poweraudio pro. When I activate the software equalizer on the RN4 the difference is instantly recognizable and I do mean instant. Everyone would notice the sound changing. On the Mi 9 lite nothing changes when I change preset, bass, surround value or even the the actual frequency values.
Issue: 2:
The sound is really low on bass and there is an ever-present hissing on higher frequencies. The whole thing sounds muddy and poor on details.
How did no one notice this of all of those reviewers? The phone is basically DOA if you use your phone listen to music in any way. It basically sounds like terrible nokia headphones they added to the phone from 2003. I cant overstate enough how terrible the sound is.
Please help me understand. This should only be a DAC issue for the cable-bound headphones (the bose ones), right? Bluetooth doesnt actually change from digital to analog, does it? So is this just a question of fixing the bug that the equalizer doesnt work?

This isn't good. Audio should be fine with good headphones without equalizer, unless your headphones require an amp. In any event, have you tried eqfy from the play store?
Have same problems. Is problem in miui?
No problems over here tho. I upgraded from a Redmi Note 4x as well but kinda forced since a very damaged screen. No problems with wired Xiaomi Mi in Ear Pro, Haylou GT1 and Audio Technica ATH-ANC700BT.
Well I did have a problem with settings since Bluetooth would become Choppy/stuttery. To fix that I had to turn off battery optimization for Spotify, YouTube and Music. Music quality seems to be decent but I can't remember stock Redmi Note 4 sounds cause Viper4Android was very sweet.
Okay, here's what I came up with after a few days of more testing:
The core issue is that the eq that comes with mp3-player apps doesnt seem to work - the dials for bass boost and surround sound are without any actual effect.
I rarely use spotify because I am oldschool and still use mp3's - so I cant say if the EQ works for spotify.
First I tried changing my country to USA and rebooted the phone and audio got way louder immediately. My Redmi 4 didnt have this BS.
Next I tried EQ-apps like "bass booster", "Equalizer FX" and one simply called "Equalizer". That kind of does the job, but is also only partially working. All of these apps come with a notification addition that give you easy access to their function. Most of them got an on/off switch there. Switching this on/off immediately makes the sound better and actually useable. BUT every other function of all of these app doesnt work. Dialing bass - doesnt work. Dialing surround - doesnt work. Selecting a reverb option like "small room" - doesnt work. Selecting a different EQ preset e.g. "Rock" doesnt change the sound one bit. Sliding the actual frequency bars up and down also doesnt work.
Also there doesnt seem to be a way to only use these apps when using bluetooth or any headphones at all. This means it ****s with the sound of the speakers. Well, who uses his speakers, you probably say now. Yeah, but it also disfigures ring tones and notification sounds. :/
Still, to emphasize again sound is better over headphones using one of these, though I dont know how exactly this works if all the dials are without an effect.
This leads me to the conclusion that the firmware of the Mi 9 Lite has a bug with its soundchip, probably in the way it can accept inputs or parameters.

This is 2,99 bucks here. Is it free anywhere? Does someone own this one and can test it? Its advertized as using 10 bands - whatever this means....

Well please dont say there is no problem. Try to actually use the EQ and tell me that changing the bass or surround levels does something noticable.

I had the exact same MIUI version on my redmi4 and it worked there. The only difference is the redmi had android7 and the mi 9 lite uses android 8. But I cant imagine the android version being at fault here, because then it would effect way more different phones?

Eqfy works for me but I'm on Android One with mi a3. Bass boost and surround and equalizer work. It has ten bands versus five bands that most equalizer apps have. It can automatically switch to a preset when you connect blue tooth or wired or disconnect. I listen to podcasts on speaker so I use it there too.
The downside is the UI is complicated and confusing and there are lots of settings in preferences and it takes a while to figure out. Because of the ten bands you pretty much have to use landscape and it's a full screen app so switching to it and switching back to another app is awkward.
You can try it and if it doesn't work get an easy refund right away within 2 hours. Beyond 2 hours you have to contact Google store and request a refund within 48 hours. Good luck

I was about to try that but then read by chance that the player Poweramp also has an integrated 10 band eq. I tried that one, it seems to work fully and do what I actually want from an integrated eq. Endless options and changing levels and turning dials does something. It even has a button linking to the android build-in eq menu and activating that one there / changing stuff suddenly works as well. Has me kind of puzzled? Maybe they changed the way in Android 8 how apps have to access the build in EQ and most player apps are not configured properly yet to use it fully?
Downside to Poweramp is that it says limited trial and the full app costs 4,99€ - I guess I will just spent that cash and be done with this problem once it locks me out.

That's good to know. With a working eq is the quality acceptable now? Comparable to your other devices? Have you tried on wired headphones?
Advantage of eqfy is it works with other apps -- Spotify, Google music, YouTube, etc. It's up to you.
