MIUI srs enhancement?

Recently i switched over to MIUI from sense because of popular reviews. I know it has dsp manager but my headphones are built for bass and honestly none of my music have bass with dsp even with the bass boost and equalizer enabled. There is a slight amount of bass but nothing close to what srs gave me. I read on the MIUI thread in the development section about srs and it said it was added but no where on my phone can i find it :\ Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
EDIT:I can see this forum is practically dead...
Well a simple solution i found was poweramp and using the built in srs, but still it sounds like utter crud when compared to the srs on my brothers stock inspire with srs... -.- this stinks...

Are you sure SRS is so great? I have a fairly high end pair of earbuds (Ultimate Ear triple.fi 10 pro) and I was not impressed with SRS at all. Too much reverb and fake midrange/stereo enhancement. If SRS was so great it would be in all the ROMs, very few have it.
Forum isn't dead BTW.

Srs wasn't that great with my earbuds either but when I got my ear pollution headphones srs had a lot of bass with my dubstep music and it sounded amazing... but now I can't access it with miui, maybe ill find a new rom if no one is willing to help me get srs on the miui rom :-\

I just ran some shell scripts last night to reset my audio (external and headphone)... not sure if it worked but let me find the link....
The link is in desire HD forum for "make speakers sound good" the script is su snd3254 -dspmode XX run from terminal emulatoe. Look in forum for respective numbers for phone. Should work for all MIUI ROMS.

I know that, and thanks for reminding me. The only problem I get when running the script in gscript is that it says that it can't be found and closes without doing anything... I've tried flashing the snd or w/e file, tried extracting it and merging the files to their correct places in the system folder and nothing will work.
I also do set the script to use superuser, it asks permission i allow it, and it still says it could not be found :/
EDIT: I tried in terminated.al emulator and it resulted in the same problem even after giving it Su permissions...

Hmmm dunno what to tell ya. I'm using connect bot for my term emulator. Worked for me but I played with some music today and I'm not sure if I could hear a difference on the recommended settings from that forum. Ill have to try some of the others
*I didn't use scripting method if that was unclear... shell commands

There was no need to start another thread on this but, hell, it seems these days everyone is doin it....Anyway, if volume+ and eq doesn.t work for you, atm you can.t do very much about it, you can either ask for another unit ( i agree the volume is low on sensation, compared to others, but frankly i did manage to get good results with volume+ and eq...) or wait until there will be an unlocked bootloader so that the custom roms can fix this issue (if they can, that is)

hmmm...well atm i think i just wait for the unlocked bootloader as promise by htc to come over.thanx bro...your words make me feel a lil bit release..lol

Volume+ 1.7.3 lets you set it even louder. +10 volume +5 bass and put sound on Good Quality. Makes it louder than my evo. Leave off VR stuff and other, also dont run the separate equalize app it makes the sound lower.

Thanks for that, I couldnt work out for the life of me whats was wrong, I could not get the volume to boost no matter what I tried, I just realised that the Speaker Modifications was enabled and one of the sliders was off default..
Now I got louder ringtones, so thanks for pointing that out..

1.7.3 or 1.37? The volume + im seeing in the market is at 1.37. Who's the dev?
Also i see an eq recommended in this thread, what is the name and developer (or link )

Volume + sound boost ( search ,,volume sound boost,, and there should be an icon with a black volume dial ) and the version is 1.7.3 100%
Equalizer ( as it says )
Volume + has some issues with incoming calls, when it Force Closes and it is quite annoying because you have to press the popup dialog before answering the phone. The developers says it is fixed since 1.7.2 but i still get the error sometimes...
Equalizer on the other hand works for me ( i-ve made a custom profile with all the levels at maximum)

VR gave me louder music but it seemed to lower notifications and ringer a bit. Maybe its just me lol

I purchased the app but I only got 1.7.2, don't see anyway to update it. I also didn't see any difference also, but that may be because I don't have the most updated version. ANY help, advice, direction would be great thanks...BTW I'm on T-Mobile Sensation.

thanks very helpful

I just want to add my 2 cents. The volume suck big time. I'm going to wait until they unlock the bootloader. I sure hope that is issues gets some attention from the gents here at XDA devlopers. Thats my 2 cents

Man from where can I get this app? On the market I only found the volume+ 1.37 which has the volume up to 7.

[Q] Dolby Mobile?

I've seen some threads in the International HOX forum, as well as a new ROM in our forum that support Dolby Mobile.
I'm on Cleanrom, and I don't really want to switch ROMS for an audio effect. I'm definitely curious though.
How can I flash Dolby Mobile onto my HOX without any ROM changes?
What about ALSA? I know MixGet is on the play store, but does it work for anyone?

I mean heres the apk. IMO its just another gimmick like beats. Its just a different equalizer. Seriously just use poweramp or playerpro or even the equalizer app from the play store and set your settings according to your preference. Surround sound is not possible through a 3.5mm stereo jack. At best, you will get virtual surround sound which distorts or incorrectly balances sounds.
Thats my opinion. But you are better off sending a PM to XsMagical and ask him about it since he ported the ROM that contains it.

Yup that I know, a gimmick it is for sure. I wish the HOX had a wolfson dac, or a voodoo-like hack of some sort. Driving larger headphones with higher impendence doesn't quite work well here.
Right now I'm using Google music with DSP manager. I'll occasionally leave beats on while at the gym for the fun of it, usually I'm only using an equalizer though. I just wanted to hear what Dolby could do, never tried it before in my life lol.

Porting Beats Audio, xLoud and Bravia Engine for Atrix 2?

Hi,
Some people have ported Beats Audio, xLoud and Mobile Bravia Engine to several of the android phones.
Is it possible to port it to Atrix 2?
Will it really increase the performance?
There are several methods available online..
(A simple google search will show the results... I am not able to post the links as i am a new member)
Have anyone tried it??
Any senior members willing to try this?
-----------------------
P.S:- This is not a Q&A post.. This is meant for discussion of a general topic.

I have installed Beats Audio and it works fine, yes it does increase audio performance. To install Beats Audio you need to root your phone.
I haven't tried xloud and bravia, so I cant comment on that.

For the love of everything even remotely good in life, do not do this. Beats audio and really any other mod are TERRIBLE and degrade audio quality. if what you want is something that drives the base hard and washes everything else out, I suppose it does a damn good job, but it kills audio quality. If you want good performance, buy some decent headphones, nothing less than $100 or so, but you don't need anything crazy, and get a good player with an equalizer like poweramp.

I have never used it, but obviously none of these can change the hardware of the phone, they are basically fancy equalizers. All equipment is different, and that is the main point to equalizers (not to adjust sound for the type of music, the recordings are mixed how the producer intended, but to adjust for different listening hardware. for example, small headphones often need more bass volume to sound good, while large speakers might lack on the low to mid end.) That said, some of these enhancements might improve quality on the device they are intended for, as they can change what is needed to get good sound there.
You can try any of these, and see what you think, as everyone has different tastes, but to get the best quality sound, I would still recommend high quality listening gear, and a good equalizer you can play with to get the sound you want.
I mostly listen with ER6i in ear headphones, which are noise isolating (not electronic canceling), so they block a lot of sound, and have really good quality for in ear headphones. They don't make the same ones any more, but they were around $100, so I'm sure there is a replacement model. I use Poweramp as my player, and it has a 10 band EQ that I tweaked for my headphones to sound best.

Well i have installed all of these and my audio is better..performance is better. From my point of view..it doesnt hurt anything.

Shame on you! Difference of opinion I guess, but my guess is it is still the same as the tv store effect. the brighter the better seeming at fist glance.
Anyways, always feel free to try things out, but make sure you know how to remove them. I made a beats remover that is in the general section somewhere, but they might have updated since then, so no guaranty that it will work.

Beats audio thing was just a screw up. It made the audio quality bad for me. I tried Acid audio engine which worked fine. It did boost the audio quality for me a lil bit !

bravia engine link plz
plz past the bravia engine link
becoz which i found is having some user specific issues
so plz upload the link or bravia engine

Good Equalizer

Hi
Can anyone please recommend a good global equaliser app for the U11+?
I used to use Viper4Audio but as this is only for rooted phones it is hard finding a replacement that works as well on the U11+.
Thanks
Aussie

I literally embarked on a search for one today. I just got this device and already miss my old one which had a system-wide EQ. Here's the one I tried that worked. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devdnua.equalizer.free
I do get a notification prompt that the app is running in the background and that leaves me worried about battery drain. I shall keep searching until I find an almost perfect one or until a custom ROM with Dolby ATMOS gets released.

Thank you. Yes I agree. HTC releases a phone with quality audio DAC but no system-wide/global EQ.
V4A is ideal but only works on rooted phones with permissive kernel, so for now we are left searching.
Cheers

Hi I tried that app but as soon as I put the higher frequencies up the volume decreased and it changed the dynamics of the sound a fair bit. Same with the bass.
There ust be compatability factors with some devices that have enhanced (preset) EQ.
Cheers

Thank you sir for this equalizer. It works on my HTC u 12+

I use Neutron. It's not system-wide,but its 30-band equalizer gives pretty awesome sound. My Youtube sounds pretty decent with these Usonic setups i have. About viper i don't know if it's good for our device. It only has 48khz drives. You are right though. I miss Viper sound... HTC must give us in a future update(...)a system equalizer

Hi.
I use Poweramp.
That's the perfect HiRes player.
Perfect sound on Bluetooth and on cabled headphones.
Just great.
Take care
