[Q] Any fix for audio?

Hey friends i know there was a post about audio fix in sda forum but it was incomplete. Have been googling for days to find ways on how to imrpove audio (especially mid bass frequencies) but didnt find any result. There was a thing called voodoo control but it wasnt supported on our(I9003) phobne!
I am currently on indian version of gb... using equaliser unlock and also tried poweramp but didnt get the desired reults! They either make the sound too boomy or destroy high frequencies as well! Is there any way to improve sound by any mod or anything? Previously i owned w995 and i feel this phone is a downgrade as far as audio is concerned!
Any help or tips please do share.
P.S- i have tried using sony ericsson's headphone, philips SHE6000/98, philips SHE3570BK/98, sen heisser headphone(i dun remember its model no) and default samsung headphone!!

still nothing in the "better audio" topic?
Any ideas for better sound play and especially recording? (without distortions, in video)

Try Dsp manager, its quite good, install 'Root Toolbox' from the market to get it. You need to be rooted though!

but DSP manager doesn't solve the distortions problem..
i've tried audioboost also, but it doesn't working.

Try playerpro

I was experiencing the same problem when compared with my i POD nano. I have installed TTPod and set the custom eq as per my requirements. I am able to get almost 95% of the expected audio quality.

[Q] Android 4+ Audio problem

I've been with this issue with all android 4+ roms. (AOKP ICS, AOKP JB, CM9, CM10)
When I'm playing music, I'm getting distorted audio when I turn the volume all the way up while I'm using headphones. I tried with different headphones and it's all the same, and the issue is not there when using the speakers.
I also tried changing the settings on the DSPManager app, I set the equalizer preset to Bass Reducer and it actually reduced the distortion. but it's still there.
So, is there a fix for this? or maybe a specific DSP config. to do the trick?
I guess I'll be using CM7 for a while, but since yajnab's CM10 RC1 is working great, I want to use it as my default rom.

check your rom.......( audio_effects.conf ) should present in system/vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf

Music apps (i.e. Spotify) can use built in Walkman enhancements but if you want something more you can use PowerAMP or Equalizer from the Play Store.

I don't think devs will just mod the Walkman app, AND, you can save up to 2 presets on the Walkman equalizer.
We have Viper4Android, it's sound output is way better than the stock Walkman, plus, you can save your presets.

I never use Z3 and i dont know how its like, but ofcoz will be good if those dsee-hx/hi-res goodies are ported lol
i just hope to get more user defined EQ settings
we currently only have custom, user defined 1 and user defined 2

Sound mods: which is your favourite one / combo?

Hi guys, my name is Alessandro and I've just rooted my Z3. I've seen there are many Sound Mods out there and I'd like to know which one you'd suggest me to try with. Which one produces the best sound according to you?
I was also thinking about a small portable amp for my 16 ohm earbuds. Do you use one?
Thank you!

If I had to choose one I would go with this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...-dontbelive-marshmallow-stereomod-v1-t3366065 as it seems it's the more clean one
I don't really like sound mods because many of them look like "hey we got beats, dolby, whateveryouwanttoinserthere" and then it's like... "so many stuff, does this really even work?" I like the way the original audio config for Xperia Z3 sounds, anyways you can also try using new libraries from stock sony roms (don't remember if it was on cross device or cross themes, but it was a port from androidexpert35) in the case your rom doesn't have the libraries updated already.
Also, watch out for mods that "amplify" the audio quality of your phone, many cause a crackling noise because they add a number that comes to their head instead of following the sound chipset config (this is from personal experience as I restored the original sound quality for xperia zl and z in cyanogenmod builds (unreleased job))
P.S: Do a backup of your current rom with TWRP before flashing any "sound mod" because if you have some regrets you'll regret even more not having a backup and then having to spend hours flashing again stock rom and getting your system back to what it was before flashing anything
Oh I forgot to mention that I use a pair of Sony ZX310 headphones when listening to music with the following configuration on sound enhancement (stock rom):
DSEE HX: On
Surround Sound (VPT): Studio
Equalizer
400: 0
1k: -3
2.5k: +3
6k: +3
16kHz: 0
Clear Bass: Adjust between 4 and 8 (6 is preferable but adjust to your needs)

I agree with you. I'm looking for something which can improve the audio output quality of the Z3, not just for remarkable names.
Is it possible to couple V4A with the Sony Audio Enhancements?

try one of these, the audio quality on headphones directly depend on the quality of the headphone,
Ans the settings you set on your headphone selection on V4A, I got Sony MDR-NC33 Noise which is pretty enough for me, other V4A can be experiment and find out with respect to the headphone,
see for yourself bro, and one thing the audio mods above are far more better than Sony Audio Enhancement, I tested it and tried not to leave sony stuff coz z3 coz like 40k here but at the end of the day there are more options on V4A and you can combine it with Dolby Atmos MOD mad by bro guitardedhero, cya just sharing my opinions and experiences

Thank you so much for your opinion! Wich audio mod works good combined with V4A. I mean, how do I know if some libraries will be in conflict with V4A? Which combos have you already tested?

I think you should probably install V4A and not mix it with other stuffs...

Do I have to disable the original Sony Soundenhancement.apk to use V4A?

I think ARISE WORKS BETTER,
forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709
that developer guitardedhero and his team are constantly updating but the the other mod that Xtreme Music is fairly good but I think he havent updated in a while and he also get banned sometimes for ad-links by the mods, any way it upto your choice I prefer more of that guitardedhero and its more stable I think, I tried both mixed in early stages of arise and xtreme music, the the sound was awesome, I got like 3 system equalizers, one for V4A, other DolbyAtmos and Xtreme Music Equalizer working simultaneously at a time, it was great, I had to throw sony's sound enhancement (sorry sony) stuff completely since if conflicts with other V4A and DolbyAtmos,
just back up your current rom, and try things out mixing them, if they dont work just google it people always have similar problems like tweaking startup init script and other workarounds.
And one last thing use powerAMP beta 3 for audio playback throw that sony music app aka walkman, it supports FLAC and has good UI and sound engine too, works with V4A. Just my experiences bro, try and find out for yourself,
http://forum.powerampapp.com/index.php?/topic/8810-poweramp-alpha-build-703704/
And one thing get a XDXC 64 gigs SD card, listen to flac audios only n cheap mp3 ****s, if you need any flac songs pm me, i got 300gigs of it

I'm trying some specific mods for the Z3, actually the last version of the Dontbelieve's mod. Arise will be my next step. How do I disable the original Sony sound enhancement when playing with arise?

I upgraded the sound driver to latest Xperia XZ one

How do I disable the original Sony Sound Enhancement? It is conflicting with v4a

Everything working. Guys, nothing can be compared with ARISE. Harder to configure, but way better results.
