[Q] Choppy Music Playback Valhalla Black Rc2

Hi,
I just installed the latest update of Valhalla Black Rc2, and before i complain i feel i must say that this ROM is fantastic in just about every way. Smooth, Fast, Simple, Conservative. Well done and much thanks to RaverX3X and Company. My issue just came up with this latest install. No matter the media player i use, my Audio Playback is very choppy. This issue reared its ugly head immediately after flash, and was never an issue with previously flashed ROMs. To ensure i didn't have a bad SD card, i put another one in to test and the issue still remains. What confuses me is that my Video Playback is perfect. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!
SGH-T959V
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-sms-kj6-vo.1.1-rc1+

No issue here

Raver didn't post it in the OP, but yes, it's caused by the EQ. Just disable the EQ itself, but you can leave the other settings enabled to fix this.

Thanks. BTW, if anybody feels they cant live without an EQ, the Market App "Equalizer" works well enough as long as you don't go too crazy with the settings.

Mine has no issues

i can use any of the provided effects with the exception of the EQ and it works great. But the instant i enable and modify the EQ settings, here comes the choppiness. Any idea where this comes from? Its funny, it sort of reminds me of the same issue that i had with my Acer Iconia A500. If i recall, that stemmed from a memory leak issue and was mostly resolved upon OTA Updates.

you can use the eq leave loudness compensation off

Your right. However i have to disable all the other affects as well if i wish to use the EQ. Thanks for the ROM Raver!!! Better than good enough to be a daily driver.

ROM/KERNEL Combo that doesn't introduce skipping music?

Howdy all, after some advice please. Been trying a few different ROM'S & Kernels and can't find a combination that doesn't skip while playing music. Maybe I have a dud phone? It is pretty random and not all the time but is very annoying.
Baseband V20c currently using meemo's DNA GB 3.3.3 ROM with samno's new super stock Kernel.

Probably has more to do with sd card and read ahead speeds/caching
Try an app like SD speed increase and try different settings to see which works best. 4096 works best for me. Also minimizes micro skips in video recording too...

Thanks mate will try that, had myself convinced it was from using sd boost at one stage!
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA

Going to jinx myself but I think it is my external sd card. Bummer so much for getting a 32GB class 10 card. Music hasn't skipped once from the internal card.
Ahhh, would you believe it skipped while typing this!
Think I need a new phone.
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA

Still happening
I have flashed a heap of different ROM's and Kernel's to no avail. Intermittent skipping on internal and external cards.
Can the baseband effect this? I am on V20c and maybe that is why the ROM/Kernel's are playing up?
Don't want to go to cyanogenmod (loose 3D) but it is the one that seems to work best.
Maybe I need to get a Gnote and just keep the O3D as a 3D camera.
Any ideas, willing to try almost anything now, love my tunes and it is driving me crazy

From what I know, it can't be the baseband. It only manage your network, I think. Flashing rom with wrong baseband-the only effect is, you don't have network.

Well been running cyanogenmod now and not one skip. DSP manager is pretty great as well. Might just have to make do with out the 3d I guess.

Couldn't help myself, flashed back to stock and so far so good. Looks like no ROM's for me for a while, well at least until ICS!

Try Promethius ROM + Promethius kernel and set longer audio buffer in PowerAMP (+750ms). Works for me.

Thanks, since I am on base V20c will I need to flash V21e base for Promethius ROM? think the answer is yes but need to be sure

Well stock didn't seem to last to long without a skip!
Switched to Power Amp on your suggestion and put both the options for audio skip (buffer & priority) on full and it seems to have done the trick!

Just wanted to share my two cents... I love the app called n7player... it has a neat feature for streaming music to itself to fix the skip issue... it works great but it eats battery...
Then one day I tried playing some music that was FLAC format... where a single 3 min song takes up like 25 megabytes...
And I had to download a special app that could play flac. And I am amazed that a 25 mgbyte file plays flawlessly with out a single skip... but standard mp3 at about 5 mgbytes skips every few seconds...
So I tried this with several other audio formats... from .wav to .wma to .mpg and they all played fine
All played from my ext SD by the way.. so I don't think it is a problem with read write speed..
Whichever leads me to question...
Anyone know if our phones have a hard time decoding/extracting mp3 compressed audio

Thanks for the tips. Might try out some flac and see how it goes. What program did you use? I have power Amp now and that says it will play flac.

EDIT: I was wrong n7 player does have Flac support

Well balls, my phone has random skipping with flac as well.
I have tried a heap of different players, codecs, roms and kernels and yet I get random skipping. Besides the 3d I hate this phone.
Maybe LG should have just released it as a 3d camera.

Even the camera is bad.
Rant
I feel as if the o3d was rushed, like they had the hardware part down but not the software part. So we got beta software they released it then they lost intrest in the o3d ($800 from me) they released other phones and then came ics and they were like, oh sh!t lets give them gb yeah that should keep them busy till the next version of android.
We gonna get ics when all the other devices spit on ics and look at it with shame ang lg will be like look theres ics we promised you there it is and will be like, but but what about jellybean which they will respond.. whoa we never said anything about jellybean buy the new 2013 Optimus 3d maX Ultra With ICS then you might get jellybean when android 5.0 comes out lol.
went off topic Also on the Gnexus so it depends i use to have stuttering when i had crossfade on and the stock player has never stuttered.

CyanogenMod works great, except for the fact that when I use it in my car through aux it pauses itself and even when it does play it sounds stuffed!
Can't win with this thing.
Will keep posting any updates here just in case someone else is in the same boat,

try this Goto Settings > Sound and Uncheck Haptic feedback tell me if the music still skips

In stock or CyanogenMod? Either way I always turn haptic feedback off. Might try the RC builds to see if they fix the aux problem.

stock noticed the stuttering occurred during me touching the captive buttons and the captive buttons lighting up and after the have gone off after switching the feedback of the stuttering hasn't happened tried inducing skipping in poweramp by skipping through songs fast and pushing power on and off nothing happened. maybe its a voltage control issue.
My music 320kbps 48khz 3-9 min
128 kbps 44khz mixes
192 kbps
haven't tested flac
try this also see if it helps https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.bluesteel.cka&hl=en

The only thing that works is cyanogenmod. Just don't turn the volume up past 75% when using auxiliary out (car etc) as it pauses by itself. Loud as at 75% anyway and no skipping / glitching while playing music!

It depends on your sound problem. Most consider the sound to be a bit low on the the newer ROMs. Both through speaker and through headphone. There are also some occasional sound routing issues, such as Bluetooth and/or headphone jack with integrated mic (like iPhone headphones). I had a worse time with sound routing issues under the CM10 nightlies than I have on EOS3 so far. CM10 alo seems to be rather laggy at the moment. I haven't found a compatible kernel to try with CM10, as opposed to standard AOSP based builds like EOS and Rayman.
To the OP, if you try EOS3 or Rayman or another AOSP JB ROM, you might try that KAT toolkit/kernel/booster/fixes. There is an audio fix for HDMI and for some other audio issues. Some are flashable seperately without the kernel, so may work under CM10, but I hadn't tried with the individual fixes.

I have installed the raymanfx Jb version. Had the same low vol issue, installed speaker boost seems to be okay now.
Is speaker boost really a bad thing fr the spkrs?
Yet to try the KAT kernel.

Bluetooth audio help
Anyone find a solution to this problem? I've got Jelly Bean running at the moment with a cm10 nightly I think it was, with a RaymanFX kernel, and I cant use my car's bluetooth with it which is bloody frustrating...especially as it pairs fine, and I hadnt even realised it is an issue!
Are there any JB susytems out there with bluetooth audio working?
Thanks guys

I have used the KAT kernel and it has solved both the low volume issue and the issue with the audio completely. It still goes out but the KAT app let's you reinitialize the DSP which fixes it.

Sorry, is that a question, an affirmation, some random sentence, a trailer for something you're doing? If it is a question, then I don't know where the lag is, cause I'm using cm10 from iosconosciuto and there's no lag in the touchscreen, and if you want some audio modifications just flash XgamerZ and you'll have dolby and awesome beats

am seriously facing this as am a advance user i check the latest hal drivers but no fix yet atcually the sean is when i reboot my phone it workds all fine even with latest gamerz rom but when after 1-2 hr of use if i type on a keyboard faster it will respond too slow bec of that if i type abcdef result will come up like abdf missing letters

Ohhhh that! I don't think that's caused by a input lag in the touchscreen, it's just that the os itself is slow. I got used to that because that happened in gingerbread too. Sorry for the bad answer, I just didn't understood your English, no problem dude.

[Q] Help Need to fix Bluetooth crackle [4.3] [cfX-Toolchain 4.8.y+] codefireXperiment

Hi,
Love this ROM but after last nightly 10/31/2013. I have a crackle in my bluetooth. Is there anyone who knows how to fix this.....Someone said Kernel but from the dev thread it doesnt say.
Help want to stay on this rom.
Thanks
Zack

Pandora streaming music through my Jambox all day no crackle. No problems with audio quality here. Try clean flashing again
Only issue is stutter when I turn the screen on. I was under the impression that the devs stomped that bug awhile ago because I haven't noticed it recently
I've only encountered it on latest CFX nightly with Trchd B4
Despite that minor hiccup I'm loving the battery life and smoothness on these 4.3 roms
