I really like STOCKPLUS_ICS_RC4_v2 ROM for i9000.Its really fast , stable,low battery consuming.
Only it has poor audio quality.Bass is very poor & really needs improvement.
I tried different software & different setting but not at all to the mark.
Any suggestions as to how to improve it atleast to a level of MIUI 2.1.13.
And equaliser will do the trick....

Already tried equaliser & tried different settings but in vain.We get very good effect in Miui at low volume as well.
Is there any technique by which one can use media player from Miui in ICS for getting good sound quality.I tried to install media player of miui on ics but was force closing.
I want to use ICS RC4 but good sound quality of MIUI
This project is derived from [MOD][TWEAK][03/05]Nexus S: Fidelity 2.0 - Ultimate Low latency audio playback. I started this project when I owned Nexus S phone trying to optimize system playing very low alsa buffer size for @6ms playback without stuttering. It’s been improving since then even I no longer use Nexus phone as optimizing OS to have with similar goal as what I did in Fidelizer is still possible in Android. So I kept improving things in Xperia phone with satisfying result.
This script will do the following changes for better audio performance:
-Optimize CPU for suitable audio playback ones while still keeping good juice
-Optimize kernel resource scheduling granularity for lower latency and more responsive
-Optimize audio process and I/O priorities from lowest level to real-time level ensuring highest performance of audio processing
-Optimize file I/O scheduling for lower CPU usage and latency with good performance
-Optimize IRQ affinity for multi-core platform
-Optimize real-time clock frequency for high resolution time domain
-Optimize Voodoo Sound configuration for optimal volume and purist without cheap tricks like re-sampling and pseudo anti-jitter mechanics.
Instructions:
1. Root your phone with recovery support.
2. BusyBox is not required but it’s recommended to have BusyBox installed regardless.
3. Verify that your phone has init.d support. You can learn how to enable init.d support from this topic if your phone doesn’t support it yet.
4. Boot to recovery and flash xperia_fidelity_v7.zip file then reboot
5. If your device doesn’t support recovery, extract ‘S98_xperia_fidelity’ file inside archive to ‘/system/etc/init.d’ and download Script Manager running that file with su+boot to instead.
6. You should have your phone with audio optimization script. Try playing music and be impressed with performance.

Nice Job, not only sound is improved, but my phone seems smoother also!
Underclocked to 652Mhz and still rocking!

It works on any devices. I added Xperia name because I'm using it as phone right now and Nexus Fidelity includes patched low latency audio library so I don't want to cause confusion with that name.

Thanks. Works great with Ac!d Sound Mod v7.0. Seems to have fixed the Walkman low volume issue I've been having with the mod.
Now the sound is reached a whole new level of awesome.
Does this work on Xperia Pro?
If yes then I got bootloop so I reflashed the ROM.
Any help........?
thank u Windows X,
flashed it in captivate i897 running "Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1" and works nice and clean with greatly improved audio
really great,regards.

with original headset much diffrent before i'm istall this fidelity, like bass very clear and smooth. i like it :good:
but with speaker (full volume), before install sound hear lound but mess up in bass. after install sound hear a bit low but bass perfect
#sorry my bad english
no improvement at all
people who want stock like sound
enhancement on cm11 !
1st install this with cwm
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48165168&postcount=337
but may be you got issue like low sound and
something wired..
so install viper4android fx from here:
http://vipersaudio.com/blog/?page_id=48
and it's driver, activate it and disable DSP
manager and enjoy without any issue.. and
sound enhancement of stock will be work
without problem in cm...
I flashed SONY Walkman as stated. Updated it to latest version using apk file in apps/theme forum at Xperia L. Viper installed as well but SONY Walkman and Viper has no real connect with each other!
MY review about it all :
Sound is sometimes low and sometimes high on its own.
Sound is DISTORTED.
CLEAR AUDIO or any other sony function has no affect.
ROM has started to lag a bit.
NO difference in gain in headset volume.
I would suggest NOT to go through with this unless you have backuped your ROM first with nandroid.
Reflashing CM 11
AND if you miss albums/walkman other sony apps, just install apk but keep in mind the tweaks like clear audio wouldnot work

bro i faced all of issue as you mentioned in post,when i flashed given link walkman and enhancement port...
and i was trying to resolve it... then i install viper4android fx, and it's driver at super quality sound...
and i enable v4a fx and force enable on headset mod...
set parameters in v4a app and disable dsp manager..
then i start walkman and all issues like low audio output,fluctuating of volume level and distorted sound all are solved and working loke stock ...for me is more thn stock...
clear bass also working when it's set at zero it have no bass and if i increasing the bass level also increase means it's working and bass effect is same as stock not like dsp manager...
equalizer and presets all are working ...also surround sound (vpt) working efficiently as works in stock ...
I'm enjoying real sound enhancement of stock sony not only music player in cm11... and i posted if people like to use sound enhancement same as stock... i found it's working for me so i share trick...I'm not developer....
Thanks :good:
it works 100%

CAUTION!
]FIRST OF ALL DO BACKUP PLS, TO AVOID ANY SPAM LIKE HOW CAN I REVERT BACK,
IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WITH YOUR PHONE LIKE BROKEN EARPIECE ETC
JUST FOR INFORMATION I CANT DO SEPARATE ZIP FILES FOR EACH ONE, SPECIALLY MONO ZIPS I WILL NOT DO ANYMORE, SO PLS DONT ASK THAT THE HEADPHONES ARE TOO LOUD OR DISORT.
IM AN AUDIOPHILE SO I KNOW THE LIMIT WHAT DISORT OR NOT, I WILL KEEP THE HEADPHONE SETTINGS LIKE THIS.
Enjoy
I was able to activate Earpiece aswell while playing Music and I can hear the Difference so good and it is the most Genius thing I found for this Device.

How u would do? It was so simple but we all was so stupid to find the how it work, it was just abt to copy and paste
In mixerpath.xml u just need to find the path
Speaker-and-headphone section
And Copy everything in that path and
Then delete everything in speaker section and paste the copied one, so simple I was
So much investing time nearly one month and now look the simplest way to do so stupid things take my time
But finally it works
Report if there is any bug
And I will try to push bass inside the two speakers without distortion let's try

I have a question:
we all know our xperia z1 loudspeaker is only 1 (mono) not stereo.
how can we produce stereo sound from only 1 speaker?
I checked your mixer_paths.xml.
it contains
<ctl name="TFA98XX_PARAM_TYPE" value="Playback" />
<ctl name="TFA98XX_CHANNEL" value="Both" /> --> I think it was taken from xperia z2 mixer_path.xml
<ctl name="TFA98XX_SPKR_AMP" value="1" />
<ctl name="DAC1 Switch" value="1" />
I wonder, will it working with our xperia z1?
thank you.

It means u don't understand BTW it's not the speaker settings and one more I uploaded new zip and this lines are useless ignore if u compare with original mixerpath.xml u will see
New lines begin from
CLASS_DSM_HPHL something like this u will see it
Rx 7 is for right speaker (actually it's loudspeaker)
Rx1 and RX2 is for left speaker (it's earpiece speaker) but RX2 don't work so
Logically rx7 for right and rx1 for left, try ur self,,

so far, the "stereo sound" sounds great !! -> I disable speaker settings sony(clear phase n xloud) to get better sound though.
I only implement "stereo" tweak, not headphoneµphone boost.
Great job !!:good::good::good:
anyway I have tried your bass mod, it sounds terrible.

btw before I forget this thing, should we change "RX7 Digital Volume" value into 100 instead of 90 ??
because RX1 Digital Volume & RX2 Digital Volume values are 100.
i don't understand how we can have a stereo mode if we have only 1 loudspeaker. what's the second loudspeaker?

Viper4Android FX would be my suggestion...found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
I used stock BoomSound to start, then tried the Harman/Kardon mod. Boomsound really washed out the mids, and Harman/Kardon default was really tinny sounding in the highs, to me. I flashed Viper in TWRP, and it's been working great for months. You have a ton of options to tweak the sound however you want, but I'm running mostly stock with just a slight boost to bass. Mostly listen to music in my car, so I probably don't get the full details in the music, but the balance is great...way better than Boomsound, to my ears.
Check out this Anandtech writeup that includes Boomsound analysis: http://www.anandtech.com/show/8078/smartphone-audio-testing-htc-one-m8-and-samsung-galaxy-s5/2
Can't speak to the quality of Project Era or Sound Explosion, so I don't have any comparison opinions. Hope this helps!
