Hello everyone.
I've Switched to skyrocket 1 month ago, it is great phone - but audio quality sucks comparing to my previouse Motorola mb611.
Call quality is acceptable, but still not so good. But music is awful, flat sound and background noise.
I'm Now on official Rogers 4.1 rom - is there any fixes for audio exist ?
Thank you all at advance.

It's a good tweak but you can do only so much with the phones external speakers. They do suck.
It can vastly improve headphone quality. IMHOP.

Are you talking about the phones external speaker or other speakers like car audio, stereos, etc?
If you're talking about the actual phone speaker, I don't know because I would never use that to play music.

ya i was disappointed the with the speaker on the back of the phone. Had to use a friends iPhone when making a call on speakerphone because we couldn't understand a god damn thing coming from the from my skyrocket speaker.
Call audio quality is weak in general; I'll try the KingBeatz and see if that helps, thanks.
I had read somewhere that the idea was being kicked around to take one of the skyrocket ROMs and branch it off into several specialized ROMs, one of them being audio. Does anyone know if this is still in the works?

I was wanting to be able to hook my Epic directly into a monitor is there a cable or converter that I can I use to be able to do that.
I do not believe video out was ever supported on this device.

Yes, but the Epic has no video out support like mentioned above. That cable will work with the Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch. Not our phone.
Yes I did some more research and came to the conclusion that its not possible...yet and I'm assuming that it will not ever be possible
Are you aware of any development on getting tv out to work? I tried reading the forums but there is just so many posts (most of them nonsense and repeated questions/answers)
In short no, it is not possible. There might be more developments in the future, but as of now, and probably ever, no.
Alot of developers have tried with no luck, talented developers. There were teams of people trying to get it working. Its a lost hope for us.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
It appears Sprint and Samsung put a serious roadblock in there somewhere as well has there being no drivers for it. Something to look for in your next phone. I am considering a cheap tablet running 2.3 like a Coby just to have video out.
Well that sucks...but thanks for the help!

I'll be scrolling website and it will select instead of scroll or be brousing through photos and instead of going to the next pic the current one will zoom. When I'm typing a email or text it puts the wrong lettoer up or don't space. The screen just does crazy things.
It only does it when its charging because when I unplug it the crazyness stops
Same here. My phone has a mind of its own when charging. Off the charge and its fine..

Before I upgraded to ICS, call echoing would not exist. Now, whenever I call someone they complain about an echo unless I take the phone out of the case. I have tried an Otterbox, two different Casemate Pop cases and a silicone case, all with the same issue. I am on stock everything. Any fixes?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
You might try a really thin TPU case. You can find some good-quality ones for ~$10 on Amazon. I got a decent (but thick) TPU from Amazon for $3 a few weeks back. If it really just doesn't work and it's definitely the case causing it, maybe try something like Ghost Armor?

Why the objection to rooting? A few tweaks or a custom ROM might fix you right up. Otherwise, yeah, try that Ghost Armor stuff, cut a bigger hole in the case or learn to live with it. Returning to stock is easy, and flash counters can be reset...

Multiple reasons.
1) I'm too intimidated by reports of people getting bricked and having to factory reset
2) This is my only android device plus my only means of contact so I'm not willing to even experiment with something I don't know
These may seem like stupid reasons because everyone here is a root user, but I'm someone who usually manages to mess up every piece of technology I touch, either software or hardware wise. I've had this phone for 6 months without even one scratch on the screen, so I'm doing surprisingly well by my standards.

before the s4 came out, the sound was all anybody could talk about, now its like the subject has completely died out now that we can actually do something about it since we have our phones.
the sound is good I guess, louder than the s3 that's for sure, but it just doesn't come alive like my s3 does.. granted, I was using Boffla kernel, and Eargasm preset on the hardware equalizer.. but I still want to tune the s4 with what's available now.
has anybody tried tuning, or using alternative sound engines to get better sound from their s4?

I think the sound is equal to S3, a bit louder, but no omphh still. Coming from HTC and iPhone I really miss the sound. All my Samsung phone has been anti omphh so it's clearly the Samsung way.
Need a kernel to fix that, sadly...
