TurboniumX Inspire Audio Fix
Confirmed working! Returns tinny audio to stock quality.
I have only tested with CM7, however it has been reported to work on other ROMs. Please make a backup before attempting this.
I've attached a ZIP that can be flashed from ClockworkMod. All you need to do is take a backup, then flash the ZIP. If it works for you, feel free to buy me a beer!
Original post follows:
I think I may have fixed the tinny sound issue on my Inspire (at least it sounds good to me now). I need someone else to test it though since I only have the one device and only a few people willing to talk to me 10 times in a row. Don't get your hopes up!
In the /system/etc/soundimage directory on a stock ROM there are several files that end in "_MCLK.txt". I pushed these files with adb to /system/etc/soundimage on my Inspire 4G running CM7 nightly build 8 with the Inspire kernel provided over at CM's site. I used Stock_Inspire4G_Rooted_r34p3rex_v01.zip as my "stock ROM".
Then I copied the /system/etc/CodecDSPID_MCLK.txt file from the stock ROM to my device and overwrote the /system/etc/CodecDSPID.txt file. Reboot and it appears to have eliminated the tinny sound for me.
Can someone test this and see if it fixes the issue for you? You'll need to get the files from a stock ROM since I can't post download links yet. Here are some instructions:
Make sure the phone is in USB Debug Mode.
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
adb push Sound_Bass_Booster_MCLK.txt /system/etc/soundimage/
{repeat above line for each file that starts with 'Sound', should be 27 of them}
adb push CodecDSPID_MCLK.txt /system/etc/
adb shell mv /system/etc/CodecDSPID.txt /system/etc/CodecDSPID.orig
adb shell mv /system/etc/CodecDSPID_MCLK.txt /system/etc/CodecDSPID.txt
Then reboot.

Hi,
Just one question for clarification.
This fixes issues caused by using Custom ROMs?
What about the low sound volume in general on untouched Inspire 4G?

I think it fixes at least the tinny sound during phone calls. I couldn't tell you about low sound volume, I never noticed it before.
The below is all fixed in the ZIP in the OP. Disregard.
I had an interesting problem with my method in the OP. After renaming CodecDSPID_MCLK.txt to CodecDSPID.txt and rebooting, there would be no sound from any application except the phone until after placing a phone call. The phone call sounded great, and then the other sound apps would work fine.
I did some more digging and it looks like the following change is needed to the CodecDSPID_MCLK.txt before renaming it. Add the following line to the bottom of the file:
Code:
Recording,/system/etc/soundimage/Sound_Original_MCLK.txt
After this, sound seems to work immediately after reboot. I've checked it two or three times now and it still seems to sound great. Phone calls sound like stock now IMO.

I can vouch for the call quality. It's back up to stock quality again!
And, in general, the audio quality for system alerts is the same as stock, although this wasn't that bad in the first place.
Anyone else want to try and post results?
Nandroid backup first through Clockwork Recovery, just to be safe. I did.
By the way, tested with CM7 Nightly #8, with the kernel from CyanogenMod forum.

Excellent! I posted a zip that can be flashed in the OP. If you don't mind, give that a try and see if it works just as well.

I thought Android Revolution didn't have the tinny sound problem because it was based on the stock ROM? In any case, you can try it -- I doubt it will cause problems but I'd take a backup using your favorite tool beforehand just in case!
Worked perfectly. Thank you.

For some reason I am still experiencing some tinny in call sound, I believe others are too. I'm backing up right now so I'll let you know how it goes.
update: holy sheep poo batman IT WORKS MANY MANY THANKS, mind if I link to this in the android revolution thread?
Wow!!! I hope its not placebo. Mine sounds much better too. Can't remember stock sound but its definitely better than a call I just made to voicemail before installing. Devs need to cook thins into all kernels now.
Sounds great!

You just flash the zip from ClockworkMod like you do any other ROMs and kernels. There are many resources on the Internet (most of them on these forums) that can help you better than I could.
Tons better.
Nice job, man.
Worked like a charm on mine good work n good idea to check the stock Rom to locate the proper driver's
I can confirm that this is awesome... many thanks
file name has cyanogen in it... but it's good for any rom?
Thanks! I used your fix on Telus's Desire HD and it seems to sound better too!

A stand alone equalizer. It works by default for all sound and can be disabled, if desired. This version allows independent equalizer for the headphone, speaker, and bluetooth. (New GB apk version contains additional settings.) I am not the DSP Manager dev…just making it available for those whose ROM doesn't include and would like to try and see if it works for them.
Should work on many ROMs and newer phones. You must be Rooted…Make a Nand Backup…I’m not responsible for problems...YMMV
For Froyo: Flash zip file like ROM, kernel, theme, etc. The proper Froyo library files will be added along with the app. Suggest you wipe cache and dalvik cache. If you have an older version in my test it appears you can flash over it and it will overwrite older files and update it. As always recommend NAND backup first.
For Gingerbread: Install apk file. Newer Android GB ROMs (appears to work up through GB 2.3.5) are no longer dependent on audio library files to be added to get DSP working. You should be able to just install a DSP apk to get it working. I've attached an apk. Do Not Use the Zip...that's for Froyo ONLY. As always recommend NAND backup first.

i dont think for my kind of usage an equalizer will make much difference...BUT, i'm interested in being able to raise the volume of the speaker...is that something I can get done with this app? and if so, can the volume really be increased any noticeable amount without risking damaging the speaker?
thanks in advance!
gonna give it a whirl on a few different sound systems, never use headphones though so don't know how helpful this will be.

Is there a newer version that works over Bluetooth?
yes actually if you check out Vaelpak it has been using this in the last few updates before it showed up in EVIO 1.3. so if you are looking for it w/bluetooth its in that rom. try it out or at least thats were a newer version is available

You could raise the gain to increase "apparent" volume but with these tiny speakers probably shouldn't do too much.

Since you know how to do this stuff with ROM building you may want to go to devs site http://bel.fi/~alankila/android-dsp/ and get newest source http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_DSPManager. That even includes equalizer for bluetooth devices. If you do and could create a flashable zip with the newest version sure would like to have to post here for others to use as a stand alone.

Thanks for submitting.
Installed and working fine on headset...will try out speaker when I get out of the library.
In the meantime...how can I uninstall this? After flashing it pandora force closes and won't open at all. Need to uninstall to diagnose what is causing the problem...
If I have to pick dsp or pandora I pick pandora!

I've found that you can flash some Desire HD ROMs to the inspire if you flash a compatible kernel over top of it.
I'm currently running Android Revolution HD on my Inspire (so far the only one I've tried, I haven't had any issues yet).
Here are the steps I used to do this:
- Copy ROM and Kernel to SDCard
- reboot into recovery
- Make a nandroid backup from Clockwork Recovery (I always make a backup just in case I need to go back)
- wipe data/cache in Clockwork
- flash ROM from Clockwork
- flash kernel from Clockwork
I used a Telus Desire HD kernel I found on the forums (same as Inspire) Sound and everything works.
I'll also attach the kernel I used for everyone to try it out.
Please report and other ROMs you have success or failure with so everyone can know what works.
EDIT: This isn't really needed anymore since the new source and kernels coming out support the Inspire. Just find a ROM that has the 1.72 kernel source and flash it, it should work as is.
I'm using Revolution HD that mike1986. posted in this this forum with no issues.

Needless to say, i'll be rooting and flashing this tomorrow.
Thanks again.
Not cyanogen. Goto HTC Desire HD Development forum, and grab the Android Revolution ROM.
Flashed leedroid v.2 with the telus rom and it works just fine. kinda wish i had the leedroid rom because it had a %20 vol increase. but i now have a 1.22ghz OC!!!!! Can anyone make a increased volume kernel. i've noticed that ours is blocked to 73% of the maxium

NO. NEVER. If you want to know why, ask the Chinese authors of this ROM.
ROOT APPS NOT WORKING:
Make sure you have enabled root access in the settings of the Superuser app!
HINT: Look in the "Tools" folder.
A note on the built-in SMS splitting: I don't trust it. In my short testing, with the counter setting (e.g., the "(1/2), (2/2)" stuff) turned on, receiving the messages was inconsistent with version 1.7.22. Turning the counter off seemed to produce more consistent working behavior. With version 1.7.29, the multiple messages would send, but the phone will still report errors with sending. Personally, I'll still use Handcent.

Dont know how exactly the headphones are controlled, but I took a look inside framework.jar and at path "/smali/android/media/AudioSystem", it looks like there are a bunch of references to output and headphones there.
Hopefully that'll help you a little. I always hated searching for simple smali edits to change one stupid thing.

NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING!!!
1. copy file from miui 1.4.29 system/etc/TPA2051_CFG.csv to sdcard.

Happened to me too.
Cleared both caches.
Wipe data/factory reset.
Format system.
Reinstall according to his instructions.
Calls are super loud now and back to normal.
I have problems with the audio of the call with the following roms:
[ROM][MIUI][9/10/2012] MIUI.us v4.1 Jellybean based ROM
AOKP JB Builds (Sept 9th)
people tell me they can not hear me or hear me very far and hear an echo.
To the OP, it's probably a bad flash, also from my experience there is no app that can boost our in call volume, or at least none that worked for me.
To Iuk2009, did you try chancing radios and if that didn't work reflashing the roms? Also you could try asking these rom devs to make a phone.apk with noise suppression turned off which causes issues to some people. If you have a case try removing it, it may not have holes in the correct places.

All the download links in the threads for 4.2.2 ROMs are now dead so I was wondering if anyone has an old file kicking around? Or know where I could find one?

Haha, yeah, I know. But when your phone has no sound whatsoever, it ceases to be useful. Can't remember that happenign to me on 3.0 so I figured I'd check it out.
Also, not too sure what the big deal is with 3.4. When it first came out, there was the wake lag, then that was fixed but bootloops became an issue. The 3.0 ROMs were more reliable for me in general, just not as up to date.
EDIT: Your first post ever was to tell me that? Haha

Yeah, according to his thread all the Twisted kernel's were based on 3.0.

I can't really remember but I don't think there was any special instructions to install Liquid Smooth. Check the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2194095&highlight=liquid+smooth
You might want to try this ROM as well: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_VcoEHi3OfvSnh3djJTTjMtdHM/edit?usp=sharing
No thread for it because it had to be taken down, but ran as well as Liquid did. Not sure if Gapps are included.
rmbq still has some v3.0 kernel's for download here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=3224
Try bubba Vn5 if you're still having problems.

OK, been busy all weekend so here's my findings:
I was able to get Liquid Smooth working using the Bubba Vn5 kernel. That was the first step.
Then I had to give it time and see if my audio dropped - and it did. So the 3.4 kernel doesn't seem to be the issue.
So I ran a logcat and while not completely versed in what to look for, I did find some audio errors relating to the audiopolicy manager, and tone generator and soundpool. Did a bit of searching and seems it could have to do with my firmware, which, of course, was also switched when I changed to the 3.4 kernel. I'm going to try reflashing 2.15 and maybe upgrade to 2.16 if that doesn't work. If neither work, I'll have to see about downgrading, but since I don't have a lower flashable zip, I'll have to mess around with an RUU so hopefully it doesn't come to that.
Thanks to everyone. At the very least, you're helping me eliminate possible causes.

I have a blackbean build with the 3.0 kernel.

If I can get my sound back I'll probably be sticking with a 3.0 based rom as at the very least I'm not constantly plagued by bootloops so I'll gladly take your copy of blackbean if you don't mind. Just another option for me to flash
p.s: my logcat should be attached. If anyone has experience with reading them, it would be greatly appreciated if you could take a look and see if anything stands out. Thanks again to everybody.
Ok, so I managed to extract the ruu using a script and flashed the rom.zip via fastboot. I am now on hboot 1.13, running LS v2.4 with bubba vn5 (3.0 kernel) and am still without sound. Logcat shows the same errors as the one I posted above (not sure exactly what they mean, but they are audio related from what I can tell.
Since I have ruled out everything I can think of on the software side, could this possible be a hardware issue?

Just here dude and looking at logcat to me look like you got no drivers or no sound hardware, not like that's any use to you.

Thanks, based on my searches, it seemed like every older ROM had dead links.
No drivers or sound hardware, huh? So something isn't right, haha. I've had sound at points so I assume there must be something up with how the software interacts with the hardware or my hardware isn't stable and works only from time to time.
Not what I wanted to hear but what can ya do? I've posted this in the Q and A forum as well, see if I can get some more info. Thanks though.

Ya I'm in no rush to delete it. I would go with an hardware issue but have you tried a Sense rom?

Got it downloaded
I've tried the newer, 4.2.2 Sense ROMs and while not entirely sure (I wasn't really looking for the sound issue at the time) I recall it happening on them, too.
But I'm going to try the old ViperOneS 4.1.2 ROM because I know that I had no issues at all back when I was using that. If it's still present, I'm going to assume it's a hardware fault and I'll have to try and unroot, s-on, go back to stock, achange my CID and all that crap and see if I can't get it replaced.
Thanks for your help.

If you still have issue then ya send it back but remember to use an RUU before S-On.

Yeah, I'm too anal to not read things 50 times before attempting it so I'll check out some guides and everything before I try to go back to stock.
Thanks again.
