Stock earpiece?

Just used viper 4 android.. Google it.

You're probably using stock earphone because Xperia L has one of the best sound quality I've ever heard.

Beats Audio and xLoud mod

Just a heads up to those who may not know, there is a Beats Audio/xLoud mod/port on the board and it works on the Atrix 2. Beats adds a deeper, cleaner bass and cleans up the mids/highs too. xLoud is a Sony Ericsson thing, it basically boosts the overall volume of ur audio. I just flashed this mod to my phone and holy ****, huge difference! I had to turn all my volumes down media/ringer/alarms. My good cans are packed (moving this weekend) so no testing with them yet but after hearing the difference I just heard with only the phone speaker I'm expecting to be very happy.

where is the xloud .zip file?
Whoa - déjà vu!
xLoud is included in the zip.
Audio volume really is increased overall (I too had to turn everything down) and the beats makes the bass sound sweet!

Yep, very noticeable difference. This one is much better than the first one w/o xLoud.

Maybe its just me, but I can't seem to find a difference in quality using the car dock. Audio goes out the car docks 3.5mm jack to my Volvo s60r's stereo. I was hoping for some more volume.

I flashed the first beats mod without xloud, can I flash the xloud mod over it?

Yes you can, it will just overwrite the one you just installed.

Tried this tweak last week and it's great. My highs have come alive and it sounds much cleaner.
So how does the mod affect the Motorola stock equalizer?
I'm assuming the beats audio is only effective in the My Music app? So do I have to disable the "Effects" in settings to hear the Beats Audio? Or should I switch that to custom?
This work well seems crisper...... Did notice if the bass is overpowering the mids and lows go to sound settings and un-tick enable audio effects..... For me with headphones will set effects enabled effects profile custom surround ambient eq bass punch WOW!!!!!

wait, so, it works by default, and all the additional effects are additional? but my system sounds are not any louder than they were before, which other people seem to be reporting

Mine are....I have had to turn all my volumes down since installing this mod. I haven't done any critical listening since I don't use my phone like that anyway, I was just hoping for louder system sounds and that's exactly what I got. The Beats is just an added bonus.
Ok are we supposed to download the one that says older zip files test301.zip or the allandroidzip.zip that looks to be the newest?

Awesome
Works great thanks! Sounds a lot better ican tell right away
So im sorry but I did this. And to be honest it didn't sound better at all. In fact I think it was worse everyone keeps saying stuff like wow... what a difference. But I hear worse clarity, more bass but... im a musician and so sounds I hear more clearly maybe than most but Idk.... anyways like I said im not trying to be rude.

Yea these are some of the same complaints I've heard about the actual beats headphones because they're made really for more hip hop songs and not a wide range of music the highs are where those headphones usually suffer IMO

Low Freq Response would better bass would it not that was not the Case Dolby Mobile sounds like the music is playing inside a can lol must be the type of genres i play.
The O3D's Hardware is Actually Quite Good the Software side really criples the phone i have seen the It's hardware on other devices and its better on other devices.
Yeah. Only really if i'm listening to dubstep or drum n bass. If listening to rock i have it set to standard with no eq...
The dynamic range of my earphones just give a great sound without any eq...
I prefer listening to clean sounds anyway... just the sound engineer in me.

lol i too prefer clean sound so when i ever i set up my eq i just try to get my headphone to play louder without changing the original sound i use to go hard on the bass but when i got into dubstep im happy in the middle lol when i got the o3d spent like 20min trying to get the perfect sound.
320kbps > Sound Good With No EQ .
You tried FLAC ? never tried
Flac lossless files are great but finding a player is a bit of a pain. I always go for the highest bitrate.
Yeah. I try not to change the eq at any point. Reason being is that if you amplify the eq then it can cause loss of certain subtle parts of sounds

I always use the flat equaliser, hate mucking with the equaliser because you can easily miss details if you do that.
Anyway, I find the O3D's audio DSP quite good (TWL6040 iirc), beats any phone using Realtek (sadly a lot), but Wolfson (SGS3 for example) comes up tops. Wolfson chips produce the best audio imo.

I've done a little research online and it seems that this does not work on all phones. I'm gonna try it tomorrow and see what happens.
Thanks for sharing!
just share...
i just ask, maybe we can mod something how to make sound loud like headset sound and speaker sound. because i have samsung galaxy mini when i dial number *#*#197328640#*#* then show option on max amp to make sound loudness. may we can mod ".lib" or something. this my argument because i still newbie to mod xperia...
I get mono too, try to check it installing another player and change the balance, if its mono, you still have sound in both sides, if stereo you will notice the blance control working, this kind of apps move the media channel to voice channel, the voice channel dont have the hearing protection but the quality is a little lower (you can hear a subtle noise in background) and is mono instead stereo, is a good workround but no the best, the app sound boost Sound Boost do the same thing and its free
Works AWESOME!!! Thanks... Aptoide have payed app for free

No need to use that. Use viper 4 android fx instead. Set +6.0db output gain and youll know its really loud.

It has incredibly loud and distorted sound
I know there's no problem with the phone because everything works perfectly in cm7.2 and miui v4

For me 20-25% is loud and clear enough

It's not the volume, it is the crude music that's unbearable. The bass isn't clear, everything is incredibly high pitched.
I tried messing with the equalizer in power amp but it didn't help, neither did viper4android

Sounds and effects

This is a question for the audiophiles... Do any of you use the sounds and effect options like "adept sound" "sound alive+" "tube amp pro" and the upscaler and do any of them improve the music quality or do they lower the quality? I'm not a audiophile but I'm using some 300$ headphones and want to know what in theory the best sound would be out of the given options.
