Can it play AAC files? I couldn't find clear answer anywhere.

According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...lop/ff462087(v=vs.105).aspx#BKMK_AudioSupport it is indeed a supported codec.

Does the Inspire support wmv files?

It certainly does. No one could/would answer this for me before I bought it. But yes it does.

Motorola Atrix II faulty Speaker

Hi i just got a Motorola Atrix II..
and i played a song with high bass (juz to check the voice quality)
But the problem now is..the output is very much terrible...(like the speakers are torn from inside)
Is there any way to rectify it..?
Did you buy it new? If so, that's a hardware problem and no amount of software will correct a blown speaker.
Go warranty it. And good luck!

Not sure why this was posted in Themes in apps but moved to general.

Have you installed any apps to 'boost bass' or volume? If so, delete them and try without them running. Also, which music player are you using, and have you checked the sound settings in your player?
You're not going to get "Bose Quality" sound from your external speaker, but it should be fairly decent (for a phone). But, it may be that it IS hardware related, in which case you need to try Moto service -unless you're within 30 days of purchase from a reputable retailer, in which case they should exchange your device.

AptX support?

I found a thread on the OnePlus forums that states there is no mention of aptX support for the One. I know that has something to do with Bluetooth streaming but that's pretty much all I know. Does this mean the OPO may not be able to stream music via Bluetooth in my car? Is it more dependent on my car's hardware? (I've got a 2011 Hyundai Sonata, for the record, and I've tried to google it with no success.) If it can't, even at $350, I'll have to pass. That's a non-negotiable for me. Can someone with more knowledge on the subject please chime in? Thanks.

Aptx is a new codec for Bluetooth audio. Most devices don't even support it right now. As long as as A2DP and AVRCP are supported you should be fine. I don't think cm supports aptx but aptx isn't related to whether or not you can steam music in your car.

Yeah. Probably even your sonata sound system doesn't support aptx codec.
A bit more info.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AptX
I would be curious though if the oneplus one supports aptx. I'm thinking probably not.

According to the Oneplus Forums it doesn't. However my 3 year old HTC One X does, so APTX definitely isn't that new.
This is going to make me rethink about whether I actually want this phone or not....
Google isn't bringing up any recent information on this topic here, other than a general consensus that the opo *probably* doesn't have aptx. But some mentions that it might be add able? Any ideas on this? Or further information that my Google-fu missed?
I didn't really care before, but I've got a high end Bluetooth speaker coming in the mail, it supports aptx, and so I'm curious thanks all!

My friend has the same exact car as you and my OnePlus One running CM12 nightlies works perfectly fine via bluetooth. This includes streaming music and answering calls for me.

That's pretty cool! Yeah the Bluetooth should work fine for most things, but what's being discussed now is higher quality Bluetooth, a special codec called 'aptx'. Bluetooth should work fine without it, but just standard quality only.
To clarify things Herr.
Aptx is a propyitary codec by CSR. BT devices supporting aptx also work without.
However Theres a major difference in audio lag and quality.
Aptx is way supirrior over regular BT IF your sound device is good enought or you wanna watch movies.
On cheap speakers you probably won't hear much difference. On high end headphones you will never go back to regular BT once you had aptx.
That said only a handful of manufacturer support it. Also cyanogen doesn't.
Its not only software but also hardware.
BTW its not just a codec running over the a2dp its a replacement of a2dp
It has almost not lag so watching movies sint a pia and the lowlatency aptx variant has practically no lag
Aptx was initially for pro. BT devices like wireless mics and monitor phones on a production level (studio, concert ...) and sadly there's no alternative right now even close to its performance

Generally it's implemented in software on the phone (or PC) and hardware in the receiver (headphones, car, etc.) really depends on the processing power available on either end. With that in mind it is technically feasible to deploy support to existing phone, it just needs to be licensed and coded into the platform.
There seems to be aptX working on Oneplus One but you have to use Lineage 14

Help regarding the audio quality.

I guys I'm planning to buy this device. I want to get this phone for the audio. Has any one listened to 320kbps mp3 vs flacc other lossless compression audio? Do they sound different on this device? Most of the smartphones play flac like regular mp3. Please help me here thank you. Also since the source codes are out I will try my best to build an AOSP Rom(if I get this device in the near future).
Htc has one of the best dac in the market. Better audio quality than almost all smartphones. Don't worry about it.

Amazon Music HD

This seems like something that should go in accessories, but Amazon just introduced a lossless streaming level, and they have a 90 day free trial on it. I'm giving it a shot! Seems like it might be made for those of us with a nice Quad-DAC phone

For those of you who try this, I'll be interested to hear if you can get anything higher than 48KHz from Amazon music HD. From reddit reports (here) and Amazon's own FAQ (here) I get the impression that they are limiting Android devices to 48KHz.
If they are indeed able to stream in full 192KHz -- or if UAPP finds a way to support it (here) then it seems a welcome competitor to Tidal and Qobuz.

The reddit link I posted contained a screenshot that displays Track Quality vs Device Capability vs Currently play at. I assume that's the Amazon app.
In any case would I also check the audio_flinger dump, as described at the bottom of this UAPP support page -- it applies to any audio player, not just to UAPP.
I am swamped right now, no time to test Amazon Music. I'll be signing up for their trial when I have more time, but probably not for a few more months.
I would recommend Tidal Master Plan if You have the 20 Bucks per Month. Amazon Music doesn't looks like a real alternative on Android thanks to the Limitations of their App...
