Hello.
Does anybody have a working dual speaker mod for the P10?
If not, can you point me to a guide how to start on Kirin/EMUI devices?

Not sure I follow what you mean.
The P10 physically only has one speaker (at the bottom), how would a "dual" speaker mod work in that instance???

Technically, the P10 has two speakers - one at the bottom and an earpiece.
FYI, this mod available for all the other devices I had in the in the past year: Galaxy S7, OP3T.
The one from the P9 forum seems have no effect at all

Ah, I get you. Would never have considered the earpiece as a speaker for music etc as I don't think it's loud enough on most phones (unlike for example the twin speaker design on the HTC M8 & M9), but would be interesting to try I suppose.
Looks like they are having issues with the p9 one anyway, so may not be that easy.

On the OP3T it was noticeable, but on my S7 it was a "night and day" difference.
Guides are existing, but for Snapdragon devices.
Just need the right lines (and the correct mixer_paths file) to edit, but they seem to be different on Huawei devices.

Hi guys.. looking at buying a 2x but need to know if the loud speaker is any good. Best phones I know of are iphone and Motorola for best clarity loudness and bass.
Thanks

From what ive read the speakers on this phone are brilliant..... probably because of the dual speaker arrangement similar to the iPhone!
I have an atrix but it suffers from data disconnection. I was thinking the 2x would be ok.

The Optimus 2X has only one speaker connected to both the right and left output of the Wolfson audio codec. The second cavity hosts the microphone. The service manual for the SU 660 shows this, so I think it will be similar for the P990
So what does it sound like?

Like a phone .
Not bad IMO, better than HTC Desire and Desire Z which was my last two android phones, more deeper sound, and can be used as speakerphone, which I could not so much with my earlier HTC phones.

Hi there; note that the reviewer states that this is a 2x pre-production model (though IMO, unlike software, hardware dose not usually change in this phase...) & lists the 2x as having "below average" quality. See the chart below for details.

Well, imo it has well above average quality.
Whether it's the reviewer or me who has trouble hearing, or if the actual pre-production model had a flaw, i can't say for sure.
It's in a different league than the Desire, thats for sure, but i guess most phones are.
IMO the sound is good on my P990
Better than HTC Desire, HD, and so on.
About the same as Samsung Galaxy S
It looks like a dual speaker, and I noticed that one of them delievers treble, and the other bass/middle tone (if it is called that? - directly translated from danish)
According to the Swedroid review "The external speaker can not quite match the fullness and volume that we experience that the Xperia X10 mini performance, but the exception to this model belongs to Optimus 2X the best we've heard one of the Android phones we have tested. We raise the volume to 100% is the sound quality is still good and we find neither of noise due to the chassis vibration due to the speaker distorts the sound, but it is both clear even at maximum volume."

Source Swedish speakers:http://www.swedroid.se/test-av-lg-optimus-2x/
since I posted this like a gazillion times by now, let me reinforce my statement with the actual exerpt from the SU660 Service Manual
I attached a part of the schematics concerning the audio codec from the Service Manual (page 67 if you happen to have it yourself)
The important part is concerned with the outputs
SPKOUTRN
SPKOUTRP
which are the + and - lines for the right channel and
SPKOUTLN
SPKOUTLP
which are the respective lines for the left channel.
As you can see both outputs are bridged to one physical speaker output (SPK_N and SPK_P) so there is only ONE physical speaker, which receives both the left and right channel signals.
Hope this clarifies this once and for all.
Can more people comment on the speaker loudness and quality? Currently I am a Nexus one and I can't even hear the speaker ring from another room. Is it much of an improvement?
How does it compare to other phones like Nokias?

Yes I agree
The speaker is a lot louder then desire z but there is hardly any base. But for pure sound its not.bad at all. You defiantly could play out loud in noisy environment. Its a mono speaker similar to Nokia n8 speaker

Hello everybody!
Creating this thread as couldn't find one which could answer my query.
As we know, our O2x or G2x has dual speakers. But my question is, do both of them work?!
I mean, only one speaker works on my O2x.

They both work on my phone, but not at the same time. Sound either comes through the earpiece speaker or the one on the bottom of the phone.

Yes, it's the same on my phone too! But i really wonder why have they given dual loudspeakers, if one of them doesn't work!
According to the User Manual there is only one speaker.
yes ,and if you unmount your phone ,you will see that the other grid is for the mic !
so their is one speaker at the top for the phone ,and one at the right bottom !
Optimus 2X have only one speaker....
one is microphone and the other is the speaker . At the beginning I thought too that it has 2 speakers but it has just 1
I suare to god it has 2 speakers LOL for one speaker its quite usable.:good:

The speakers are not evenly matched, and so no good for stereo. The earpiece speaker is much weaker than the louspeaker one on the bottom of the phone.
I've always wondered too why so many phones have two speakers, but they are never wired for stereo. I'm sure there would be some way of doing it - it's not like you are ever holding the phone next to your ear when you switch it to loudspeaker, so you could have a speaker that would go much louder there.

Yes, but i saw a review in GSM arena where they said that it has dual speakers and stuff..
Proper etiquette aside (hint: don't use speakerphone while doing your "business" in a public bathroom), rate this thread to express how you think the HTC U11's speakerphone performs. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it's loud and it's clear.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
The speakerphone is total garbage its absolutely awful if you ask me!

Yeah I guess im just used to my htc10 speaker with a sound mod... Much louder!
Not sure what you are talking about, there might exist phones where it's even better, but I actually find it extremely loud and clear! Way better than how I remember the M8 to be when it was new (my speakers somehow degraded over time). And, more importantly, people on the other side hear me very well too, with the M8 they were complaining the whole time when I was using the speakerphone.

Yeah I still see people brag about how much better the M8 speakers were but I have mine still side by side and the M8 speakers are very low.

Well the 10 with a mod I could hear over my exhaust for my type-s RSX now I can not hear anything unless I literally hold it up to my head.... So to me that says alot! Just booted my m8 and it also has moded audio and it isnt that much louder to be honest.

There is a sound mod in viper rom. It made the u11 speakerphone louder for me from what I could tell.
Previously I had Axon 7 and its speakers were much better than those in u11.

Which mode is that, coz my HTC 10 loud speaker wasn't as loud as my HTC One m9
Today I took a shower and during that shower I realized I feel like listening to some music. so use the magic words and I spoke to my phone I said to him ok Google Play Coldplay music in Spotify.
Then the volume was too low, so I spoke to magic words again and ask my phone to increase the volume it worked out just fine.
Awesome!!!

Your speakers may or may have not degraded.
The speakers from my M9 were very quiet at some point and the sound sounded like it was cracking.
The problem was that dust got in the grille.
So i just took a toothbrush (dont forget to dry it before using it) and took out the dust.
You have to swipe towards the screen to get the dust out.
One of those small brushes used to clean hair trimmers is good too.
I first saw it here and it actually worked:
https://youtu.be/-NngAUWHHyo
I'm very happy with the speaker. I compare it to my older S6 and my temp OnePlus 5 and the sound coming from the U11 is much richer and warmer. It might not be as loud as the OP5 but the definition is much better where the OP5 sounds louder but very thin and high pitched.
Can someone tell me about the quality of ear piece ? Is it loud enough for hearing the caller from other side in noisy environment ?
Well the quality is amazing but the volume is extremely low unless you crank it to 100...but if you combine it with Viper4Android just use the "eXtra Loud" option set to extreme and Max Gain 4x and max output to 0dB... then half volume is now loud and the quality is still there
Coming from the iPhone 8 the volume is very low and distinct lack of bass.
Quite disappointed to the point I thought my unit was defective.
Hi,
for me,my M8 sounds better then my new U11.
For those doing the Dual Speaker Mod, just be aware that the mod might, again might, bust your earpiece on higher volumes. Busted mine yesterday on my black Note 8. I said might because I also modded my Blossom Pink one and it's still working.
I never saw these dual speaker mods worth it. Ever. If it's so important to you just buy a device that feature true dual speakers. Just my view on it.

Yep, I guess he didn't use yours. I've used your beta v3 and stable v2 without any issues, but his post scared me into going back to stable v2. :angel:
I have used the booster for 2 weeks with the 35 percent amplifier and no problems here at the moment. You just scared me, I dont want to broke that lovely phone ?
Mine got fooked because of the whitestone dome adhesive.
Early leaked information mentioned "Xiaomi claims sound has also been improved with 'industry's best linear speaker', equivalent to 0.9cc large speaker box with deeper bass, Smart PA uses dynamic gain to amplify sound by 100%".
Has there been any real life reviews of the speaker quality as of yet?

"Loudspeaker
A lot of things have changed since the Mi 8, but the loudspeaker is not one of them. We were disappointed to find out that the Mi 9 doesn't boast stereo speakers. Instead, it has the same bottom-firing loudspeaker as the Mi 8 and it even scored the same Very Good mark at our loudness test."

Very conflicted on this, on one hand Xiaomi seem to be confident that the Mi 9's speaker has improved & have advertised it like shown on the article yet the GSMArena review claims the speaker is basically identical to the Mi 8, keen to see what other reviewers say

Hoping they announce a Global transparent edition, if not I'll probably end up with the standard one
Speaker for me is a decent single speaker, coming from OnePlus 6t with there single speaker its better imo.
It's got a decent amount of bass to it!
Bring back the glory of stereo speaker just like Mi6 then?
