Well, i know a lot has been said about the sound quality, but i have to say it again.
I put an mp3 song and made it a ringtone and it sounds like crap..its muffled, it sounds very low and its just not clear and crisp as if i hear it on my PC. I did it with lots of other mp3's just to verify it and all of them sounds like crap when the phone rings.
The thing is that the built in ringtones the phone has, sounds crisp and clear...
why is the difference?
anyone knows the reason it is different?

I'm trying make a sound my sms alert sound but when I copy it to my phone it sounds like crap. I've had all kinds of crazy crap as my text sound before (wildly varying frequencies and loud ones to) and never ran into an issue like this. It's not even a weird soundl

Is there something wrong with the file?
Thanks in advance
So I'm wondering to myself (having used other phones like the Captivate)
While on a call, the actual call quality is fine. When you are setting other tunes on the phone though, such as system sounds or text messaging noises, they aren't there (this happened to me on stock before I flashed anything). Also, the sound would play really loud through the ear speaker piece on the phone, rather than the speaker on the back of the phone.
They have output all system sounds to the speaker, right? And the sound doesn't sound low quality, but...
Maybe I'm confusing everything, I realize the "sound fixes" people post do fix the sound quality, but what about the sound output (ability to ouput more than one type of sound like I described above)
Or is there no way to really design this the way I described?
I have a hard time hearing the LG G2x's ringer even when using really loud or obnoxious ringtones. Is there anything I can do to plug my device into a System, PC, MP3 Player, BT Paired Speakers alone,et.. AND MAKE the Ringtone/Ringer come through these External speakers So that I can hear the ringtone on these really loud OTHER device's Speakers?
I have tried to just plug a 3.5mm (male to male) cord into an expensive MP3 Speaker system, and I was able to hear my audio (music, and application sounds) great, and loud! - but when I put a call into the G2x, the ringer/ringtone was SILENT. I don't know what else to do, there seems to be no options to force ringtone to ring through external speakers (even the PC would be fine if there was an app that had a type of UI on the PC for such a thing, I think mp3 players, or even ipod players may be an answer too, I just don;t know how ir could be set up,... But maybe I'm over-thinking this and it's actually something really simple that one of the more Android-tech-Savvy people can answer. I'm new to the Andriod scene and like the G2x, but I need it to be set to ring through LOUD speakers so I can hear it in another room if need be. Any suggestions would be great!

The kick drum in some songs in Pandora sounds really ugly. It sounds like it would if your headphones were broken, but I am sure my headphones are fine. I am not an audio expert so I do not know the technical term (fart noise maybe?). It is really annoying and it ruins the songs, especially songs with loud kick drums (Deadmau5). Does anyone else have this problem? It happened on every ROM I've used.
Negative. What version of Pandora are you using? I have the "Red Unlimited" app installed on mine and I use Smart Android's Equalizer application.

Are you using Pandora One?
DeadMau5 on mine actually had the same broken sound you're describing. It's just a lot of bass that has to do with the quality of the file. After I upgraded to Pandora One, it went away because of the higher bitrate. Now it makes the same noise if I turn it up super loud. If you don't have Pandora one, just do the 1 day trial and go onto your phone and select High Quality under settings to see if that helps.
...but Google screwed up by giving it a wrong sound profile. Hear me out.
If you have YT music or Spotify linked to your alarm ringtone, play a song with the alarm volume at max, then try playing the same song in Spotify.
It sounds MUCH better in the alarm, I guess because it's only using the bottom firing speaker and doesn't need to account for the top one?
But then once you turn down a level in the alarm volume, the mids suddenly drop more than it should, probably expecting the top speaker to help but never got it.
I suggest Google just disable the wonky sound profile and use the bottom speaker only for media. Cuts the stereo speaker feature (which already sounds ****ty), but gives us better sound quality.
I agree that it could easily sound better. It reminds me of exactly what an iPhone sounds like. It has a weird hollow "clunk" sound (I'm guessing it's some dsp trick) when it's trying to play a bass thump. The bottom speaker is clearly missing treble which I'm guessing they figured the screen speaker would make up for. I think they should just make the bottom play the full spectrum and then it would sound fine. I guess one of the eq apps could help out with that too.
What is this nasty screen unlock sound. Sounds atrocious
