[AUDIO] How To Correct Samsungs terrible hardware EQ settings - Galaxy 3 Android Development

Hi,
As with the SGS Samsung has crippled the audio quality for playback by setting really bad EQ settings. However, this can be corrected by changing them in servicemode app, but this has to be done on every boot since they are resetted.
thanx go to Supercurio for the SGS version of this.
So here is the howto:
Code:
go to ServiceMode by entering [SIZE=2]*#*#197328640#*#* like a telephone number.[/SIZE] or through SGS Tools
select
[5]Audio
[2]Headset
[1]TX value
[3]Tx Filter
there you find
[1]Filter 1: {some value}
to
[7]Filter 7: {some value}
change each of them to 0 by selecting then press menu key and choose key input.
you should end up with
[1]Filter 1: 0x0
[2]Filter 2: 0x0
[3]Filter 3: 0x0
[4]Filter 4: 0x0
[5]Filter 5: 0x0
[6]Filter 6: 0x0
[7]Filter 7: 0x0

now play some music over your headphones and enjoy best undestorted audio quality...
this is just a temporary solution because of resetted values on reboot, but for now i think it is a starting point for others to develop this further...
just found out that unlike the SGS on sg3 this settings survive a reboot, so it has too be done only once...
edit: to raise the overall volume a bit i entered 2da8 in all filters!!

if you are on a custom rom that has no serviceModeApp.apk the numbers in dialepad disapear and nothing else happens, if so take serviceModeApp.apk from here and push it to /system/app/
known limitations:
does not work on ddjp2 (Audio Menu blocked)
does not work on jpq/s (Audio Menu blocked)

not needed with custom kernels featuring Voodoo Sound!
Voodoo Sound does override these settings.

Done:-
Edit:works gr8 now

Tried with some music with deep bass, almost no distortion at full volume. Before the fix it was impossible to listen to because of the cracking noises, so it's not just placebo

Hope this is implemented in roms

Oh yeah! Now it sounds like a stereo headset !
I don't lose the values even after a reboot.. They are still all zeros

Is it working with the speakers too ? Because they sound a bit strange too.

you can try, just choose speaker instead of headset, but i think you wont realize to much of a difference, since the speaker is not realy a good one anyways...

its not working on my phone.
after dialing these no. it gets deleted by itself and nothing happens.
I have tried it using sgs tools also.
I am on DDJP2.

works fine
thanks

I might be getting something wrong here, but are you hitting the dail button? If so you did something wrong. You are not supposed to hit the dial button, it'll pop-up after you finish inputting the correct number/character sequence

i know about DSPManager, but it is part of CyanogenMod, and i am pretty sure it needs a big afford to implement, and i am not capable of doing that.

Nice dude
Any way to increase the speaker volume by a hack?

[MOD] MetalGearSolid Sounds

What can i say I love Metal Gear Solid. Saw the iphone sounds.. (no comment)
If you know the game you'll recognize the sounds
I have the alert or ! sound as the low battery sound
The codecopen as the unlock sound
The codecover as the lock sound
and the codeccall as my notification sound.
(simply put on sdcard in /media/audio/notifications/ )
Simple enough to install...
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/[COLOR="Red"]file_to_replace.ogg[/COLOR]
then
Code:
adb push [COLOR="Red"]/location/of/new/file.ogg[/COLOR] /system/media/audio/ui/
or you can just use your favorite file manager with root access.
Replace
Lock.ogg
Unlock.ogg
LowBattery.ogg
Codeccall.ogg goes on the SDcard
enjoy!
Thanks, really good sounds...
Hi.
Great sounds!! i tested in my PC, but dont know how to put this in lock/unlock screen, etc...
Can you please help me?
Thanks.
only for Froyo.
Awesome. I love mgs and disliked the lock/unlock sounds in stock froyo (too iPhony)

You just copied the sound file from MGS PC (demo) or from some other forum and added a few pics and fonts. But thanks anyways.
They sound okay but I can hear a hiss in the background on each sound clip.
Could anyone tell me the name of a file manager with root access I don't have access to my pc at this time. I've tried Linda and astro and neither could write.

and
Estrongs File Explorer.
(you have to go into settings to enable root access... and choose the hiapk method, not cyan)
Make sure you have busybox installed, or you will get errors
I didnt mean that their mine and copyrighted, come on. I meant I have them in my collection. So many people here ready to start something over nothing. Enjoy anyway, finding all the sounds is hard and thought I would share and save people the trouble of trying to find every sound.
Yes, some do have a hissing sound, but it is clear enough for the phone.

Youtube Mod in the making..

Hiya guys,
I've been working on a Youtube modification which is supposed to add some sneaky features. What's working right now is enforcing high quality videos and download videos to your sdcard.
The modification can be installed without removing the original youtube app

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Download folder can be set in the settings
You can choose between high and normal quality when downloading videos.
I'm going to release this once I finished the downloads activity where you can see active/finished/error'd downloads.
Maybe one would like to give me some ideas for other features.
Hmmm, Nice! Can you add the option to record in HD 720p that has been added to CM 5.0.8 video recorder? Or will it do that anyway?
will this require root?
Want.
Dolphin doesn't download anymore... and I don't want to install an older version just to download videos.
youtube ripper on the market you can download videos
genius.... i'd donate.
Looking forward to this!
One thing i'd like to recommend though, a better icon. That one looks a little ehhh...
Very cool idea. Can't wait for the release!
Very Awesome! Thank you!
Nice idea, keep it up!!
Awesome!
I have to agree with the icon tho.
Very nice
It's looking really great can't wait for a release. any idea when it would be released, or maybe a beta?

Only thing that it's lacking right now is the download activity where you can see finished/error'd 'n downloads in progress.
will the high quality option pick the highest available quality or just the next level above normal?

Right now only the next level above normal. I'll adjust the mod for the Evo Youtube.apk once I finished this. Shouldn't be too much of a problem.

would it be possible for you to mod it so that it continues to stream and play the video in the background even when u press the home screen or back button?

I believe there's a Mortscript out there, named MortRing, that'll allow you to assign different message tones per contact. I haven't tested it yet myself so I don't know if it works. Here's the file..give it a try and let us know if it works.

I have the same trouble with this. I found the shutter.ogg but how can i turn off it. I try to rename or delete it but impossible.
Are there other way to turn off shutter sound without root?
I use 'app volume control' which allows volume adjustment for individual app without root. This feature can also be found in Samsung's sound assistance. However, I haven't tried on the latter.
In some countries there is a law prohibiting the muting of shutter sounds. Most CSCs play it through the system sound channel but some use a special immutable channel. I assume Korea has that law so you'll need to either root or flash a different region's firmware.

It's so close to working. The problem is that I can't get the camera to make a sound (ironically) that Soundassistant will pick up. Soundassistant won't let me choose the volume of an app unless it's actively making a sound. Any ideas?

Then Soundassistant picks up the media player and asks to change the volume for it. The sound would need to come from the camera app.

Unfortunately, this doesn't work either. While the shutter button is held down, I can't interact with the overlay to adjust the volume. Even if I could, when the shutter noise is going off for burst shots, Soundassistant doesn't pick up on it.
Appreciate the suggestions.

Maybe yet another security feature from Samsung, like trying to take screenshots in certain apps is disabled
Starting to sound like rooting might be your only option
With the G930F just turning the system volume slider down kills the camera shutter sound so I just leave that turned off 24/7

Probably won't, but as you would be moving from 1.15 to this one, it is recommended you do a clean install. You can have issues otherwise.

Trigger Bug
After update I'm experiencing that while playing pubg trigger suddenly stop working in between the game. Although when I open the trigger button option and save it. It starts working again but you know it's buggy. Also Red Magic Time has been introduced to record highlights but if you get last kill in pubg it's not included in the highlights. However the recording quality is nice. I hope Nubia solves it by next update.

In Game Mode (GameSpace to be Exact) you can find Red MagicTime after update you just have to click it. It will record automatically when match starts. Also you can just record either highlights (default) or the whole match. If you wish to choose it in settings.
Do the triggers bring up playback controls in YouTube still?

It does the same thing in Firefox and Chrome when I watch a video.
It's silly, the triggers should work only in Game mode...
