Hello I use Poweramp as a daily music player but on MIUI it seems to be impossible to use especially through Bluetooth earphones or speakers.
When audio is being played i have to be either still or have the phone right up against my ear so it does not cut out.
I am wondering is their any settings I am missing. I have the bluetooth buffer set to maximum on the app but that makes no difference.
The app works fine with a custom rom but not MIUI.

Just wondering if any of you guys have had any issues with Slacker Radio's audio quality streaming over Bluetooth after updating to Froyo? I have my N1 paired to a Clarion CZ500 and have had no previous issues with audio quality before 2.2 if anything the audio quality was superior. Funny thing is though, the music player plays media crystal clear, and everything else audio wise is coming through the speakers very clear. Is it possible that the audio from Slacker is getting sent over the HFP (hands free phone) instead of A2DP? I don't know much about Bluetooth stack stuff.
Also, the music player starts automatically as soon as A2DP is connected, really annoying as when I put my phone in the car dock, I have it set to launch Slacker, so it plays Slacker and the music player. Also, audio controls from the head unit seem to only control the music app instead of Slacker (never did this till Froyo)
Any help or tips would be appreciated, thanks!
I'm hearing the sane thing with my setup. I use Pandora and before froyo, it was clear but after updating, it sounds muffled. A buy worse than radio quality
My slacker is misbehaving now too. It won't open or respond sometimes after the froyo update. On a side note after the update I have noticed severely decreased audio volume from the dock speaker and audio jack output. The audio volume decreases when I put it into the dock. I estimate by 10 - 15%.
I've been using my bluetooth stereo headset for a while under CM7. I switched over to Fasty 2.5 and everything is running great. I have one weird issue when using my stereo Bluetooth headphones however. Once they are paired and I listed to any audio whether it is a ringtone, notification, music etc. it comes through both the headphones and phone speaker. On my other roms it would always play only through the bluetooth headphones. Is there any way to prevent it from playing though the phone speakers or is this some kind of bug?
Is anyone else having audio issues with the Droid 4? mostly when I listen to music The vocals are so quiet that I can barely even distinguish them. I've tried 4 different sets of headphones and even replaced the phone once (it had other issues too).
so I'm just curious if others are having this issue or is it simply the audio playback on these phones is just poor.
I would even like suggestions of music apps or equalizers that can enhance vocal playback.

I'm very happy with the sound on my D4. I use Poweramp to listen to MP3s off my SD card, Tunein Pro for streaming local radio and some podcasts, and occasionally Slacker & Pandora for other streaming.
The Poweramp free app is a 15 day trial, the Full Version is $4.99 in the store. It has, in my non-audiophile opinion, a kick-ass equalizer, including about 16 presets. I have no problems hearing any audio unless the source was recorded with low levels.
That being said, I'm not a big fan of the D4's speaker for listening to music, but when I'm listening to music I'm either using headphones, external speakers or I'm plugged into my car's audio system, so it's not usually an issue.
I use Volume+. It is a paid app but worth it I think. I really does boost spound with headphones, speaker, bluetooth, and in call. To mod in call you have to be rooted.

That's for the options, I will try them out. I don't think the issue is quality since I use 320 kbps mp3 files as often as possible. I'm just trying to figure out this issue before I start flashing CM9.

I too have enjoyed the audio quality and volume from my droid 4. It could be the audio files you are listening too. If you ripped them from a cd, or downloaded them from somewhere sketch, then they could just be low in volume all together.
Well I considered that too. But I listened to the same song with poweramp, with Google music, on winamp and on Pandora. Same thing, I can barely hear the vocals. It sounds fine coming out of the back speaker, or if i switch power amps setting to mono. Maybe my phone just hates stereo.

Go to phone settings > sound > media audio effects. 3D audio or whatever is probably enabled by default. This drowns out some sounds in order to make a '3D' effect. Not good for music, in my opinion.

Thank you so much. That worked. I tweaked the audio effects and other settings to make it sound how I wanted it to. I can't thank you enough this was driving me insane. Now is time to start playing with roms.

When I use spotify and adjust equalizer settings there is no change in sound.
I've tried this on my Bluetooth headset and stock ear buds they came with.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have the same problem. External equalizers work for a while but stop randomly sometimes. Once was able to make SoundAlive work once with the right settings. Trying to find the right ones again. Will report if found

Exactly for the Bluetooth it works but wired doesn't it seems
I have the same issue, external equalizers don't work at all. Only sound modification settings that work are the ones in the system settings (and the actual equalizer is absent here). However, it worked for like 3 minutes at some point today, and the built in equalizer sounded amazing. And then it stopped working again -_-
I have the same problem!! Maybe it can be fixed with an update!
Bump. Have anyone found any solution for this? I've been into every single forum and thread and still no solution is found.
I have the same problem. Had this issue for months then randomly the EQ worked for about an hour yesterday, broken again today. Sound Alive+ works, up scaler and tube amp emulation work, but changing the EQ does absolutely nothing. Likewise with effects like 3D, concert hall etc. Using the built-in Samsung Music player seems to work but neither Spotify or Shuttle+ work.
I've tried everything I can think of except factory reset.
I got the phone around 15 days ago. I was pretty happy with my earphones along with the Google Play equaliser, so never tried the "Headphones and Audio effects" functions. Everything was fine till a week ago.
I tried the inbuilt "Headphones and Audio effects" settings, didn't like it, and reverted to the Google Play equaliser.
I found out thag the Google Play equaliser was not working anymore. The equaliser UI was there and working, but it wasn't affecting ang changes in the audio.
Same issue when using Prime Music.
Has anybody else faced this issue?
If so, does anybody have a solution? (Not a workaround or phone reset suggestion)
Is it an Mi or Google Play issue?
Any help would be appreciated.
Happen to me as well,on china rom, mp3 player audify and bits apps ,equaliser not working ,only Poweramp works
Found a solution, Turn on Mono audio from developer mode and select any music player equalizer, it works on all mi phones and headphones
Mi equalizer works on stereo mode and doesn't allow other equalizer to control.

Thank you so much for this neat trick.
One more observation: If you switch on mono and then music player EQ starts working fine. After this even if we disable mono, EQ works fine.
