Headphones not loud enough

Hi!
Xperia MiniPro (PowerAmp) I used so far with AGK headphones. It sounds so loud and clear.
Now, my new Xperia L is inaudible and i cant heat that powerfull bass.
(With the same app and headphones.) I tried the same options, and tried to boost in equalizer but still crap.
Any solution to make it more loud and clear bass?

Only solution is to get a pair of headphones that are more sensitive. Xperia L has much worse built in amplifier that MiniPro had. I experienced same issue with my old headphones and solution was to get new ones with at least 106db sensitivity.
You could try that amp boost in PowerAmp but it kills dynamic and makes sound flat and dull.

Viper4Android Bro You can make the headphones, loudspeaker and bluetooth device sound a 6 db louder or if you install both Viper4Android and Viper4Android XHiFi you can make headphones 12 db louder (In my case I only have 6 db louder as I set a eq to be more bass than everything and by making + 12 db theres to much bass and headphones ale quieter than before). But give it a try. btw. this need root.

PowerAmp app that OP is using has built in software amplication but just like every software solution that exists it kills dynamic and sound quality.

[BUG] SONY Xperia Z5 - headphone jack - static + hissing noise

SONY Xperia Z5 - headphone jack - static + hissing noise​
Description
Static / hissing noise through headphones and speaker while playing sounds (music etc.) especially on low volume. If DSEE HX is enabled in audio settings while using the official Sony music app, the sound is perfectly clear.
DSEE HX ON + Sony Music App = perfect sound
DSEE HX ON + YouTube, PowerAmp, ... = static noise
DSEE HX OFF + Sony Music App, YouTube, PowerAmp, ... = static noise
affected devices
Sony Xperia Z5
Sony Xperia Z5 Compact
Sony Xperia Z5 Premium
android version
Android 5.1.1
Build Number: 32.0.A.6.200
kernel: Stock, AndroPlus, etc.
troubleshooting
- flashed new / diffrent kernels and roms = same issue
- send to Sony Repair -> had to pay 250€ for repair because of unlocked bootloader = nope, certainly not

Anybody with the same issue?

I think I have it too, but I'm not sure.
My phone has cracked glass on back side so imo they will not repair it for free even with locked bootloader.
Did You check sound without headset?

Not all Z5s affected - mine is fine. I just tested the Sony Music App and turning DSEE HX on and off. Headphones are older Sennheiser PX 200 - maybe some audiophile will have 10 reasons why they're crap and my test doesn't count BUT there's NO STATIC doing the tests above.

Yes, I tested it with several headphones (good ones, and cheap ones). I know I have a good hearing (the first volume step is enough for me), but it MUST be audible for every normal person.

You tried different headphones ? (I've tried 2 different headphones so far, and experienced this only upon using the other pair yesterday: Creative EP630; vs. some Philips Headphones where it didn't occur - so far ...)

uh, okay
I remember that at the beginning there wasn't any static noise but now the only option that "fixes" this is using DSEE HX,
this is ridiculous !
(I'm also getting this on the Galaxy S1, btw )
This bothered me a great deal since sometimes I listen to music before I sleep and it's really annoying - getting me to be more alert rather than more and more sleepy
One way to promote DSEE HX
Could be that software updates to certain components (kernel ? music player ? libraries ?) did cause this or some other factors

I tried the Z5 headphones, Sennheiser In-Ear CX 300, and Sony MDR1A. With the MDR1A the sound quality was ok.
I tried diffrent kernels, flashed diffrent roms...everytime the same problem. I think DSEE HX is only enabled in the Sony Music App. If someone could find a solution to enable it systemwide, that would be great.

Yeah, I'm planning to use this phone partly for work & at home so it has to work flawlessly - calming after some stress is also part of the plan.
Nice ! I've got the same Sony MDR1a, will see how those work for me
Anyone took a look at the following soundmod ?
[SPLIT THREAD] The first Soundmod for the Xperia Z5 : Project Desire http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...it-thread-soundmod-xperia-z5-project-t3255636
Project Desire have many Features like an improved DSEE-HX for better Audiophile feel or White Noise Killer, it's Ultra Clear and wonderful for your ears, you will hear what you never heard

Challenge accepted :silly:
(once I unlock the bootloader & use custom parts - I'm still seeing whether I can get this all to work without modding & mainly work on Sony's part )
@alphatact1cs that MOD appears to be system-wide, it's not DSEE-HX but it's a start, after that it might only be some modding to get DSEE-HX globally
edit:
okay, tested the following additional headphones (high quality ? what are their differing characteristics ?)
MDR-1a
Xiaomi Piston V2 (2.1)
in both the static noise ("white noise") was still there but only much more subtle - still annoying in the long run
edit2:
is this "static noise" equal to IMD+Noise measured by gsmarena ?
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z5-review-1326p7.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/gsmarena_lab_tests-review-751p4.php
If yes, it would be nice to know if the original Xperia Z also head this "behavior":
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_3-review-996p8.php (similar values with headphones attached for IMD+Noise)

I Have the MDR1A-DAC. It has an inbuild DAC, so I can use it via USB.

I added it to my INDEX so others will find it, thanks.
Its not a permanent noise, it interferes with the music, but only when a tone is played. I have to get my phone back from Sony, then I can try new solutions and record the distortion.
[INFO]: Lower SPL/mW means lower noise. The device has to use a higher voltage to generate the same amount of volume = fewer distortions.

Got some new experience:
If "Developer Options" are enabled and "Use AwesomePlayer (deprecated)" is toggled, then there's no output for Sony's Music app (while DSEE HX is enabled),
but the other music apps (only some ?) still work but there's also still the white noise while playing music (e.g. JetAudio), so I assume that doesn't use NuPlayer ?

(also posted in ProjectDesire thread)
Another observation:
When setting the preamp to -30 dB on the Galaxy S1 (Voodoo Sound Mod), the white noise mostly goes away - the max output isn't as high as with preamp set to max (of the hardware limits) - but output is much clearer and appears less distorted (IMD, THD ? http://www.gsmarena.com/gsmarena_lab_tests-review-751p4.php )
The difference is that with DSEE HX on the max output appears to be non-changed from the default (e.g. no settings or ClearAudio+),
so DSEE HX appears to utilize the hardware's full potential (preamp TFA98XX according to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64005513&postcount=4),
while also tuning the software to optimum ...
edit:
essentially what the following does: https://github.com/AndroPlus-org/an...mmit/3ad9cddb55bc361c8bf8f6d38159c7d4efd95b92 Fix static noise on high end headphones , but that comes with the issue of voice cancelling not working, so perhaps not so low values ...
Looks like we also need some sort of Voodoo for the Z5 series ( @supercurio I'm looking at you)

I think Rev4 is the one with least problems. I don't feel this, think lucky me.

Hi all,
Just had this problem on my Z5. Fixed by going to Settings > Sound & notification > Audio Settings
and turned DSEE HX off and ClearAudio+ off. Then in Sound effects, turn everything off.
Cheers.

I get the hissing statistic background effects too when playing videos, music, games etc.. Anybody found a solution to this?? Changing audio settings doesn't make a any real difference.. possibly a software/driver bug?? I can't remember if the sound was hissing on lollipop before I updated to marshmallow.. it's subtle hissing-static but very noticeable when putting the speaker close to the ear.. It almost sounds like sound interference or sound crossover (different frequencies overlapping causing static rustling hissing effect)..
Original Xperia Z never had this issue.. I just hope it's not device/speaker related as I can't be bothered going through a long process for a replacement..
But if it was device speaker related, wouldn't the noise also occur while on a phone call?? Both internal and external sound?? Just a thought..
I'm going to look in to this further and see if I can find a possible perm fix or something, unless one already exists..
Any ideas guys??
Sent from my E6653

Okey, I found an ACTUAL fix for this, believe it or not You do have to pay a few dollars for an app called FauxSound if u want it to work though, and it's not 100% perfect, but makes the white noise inaudible in ALL apps for me. Also, it's not my fault if this doesn't work for you, or ends up exploding your phone or something :3
I expect most of you to find this as easy as installing any mod, but in short you have to use FauxSound (or maybe an alternative, I used FauxSound) together with a supported kernel, which in my case was Zach's Kernel Playground. Stock and AndroPlus does NOT work. Long story; after installing the kernel (or the FauxSound supported kernel of your choice) through TWRP and downloading FauxSound from Google Play, I opened the app and put "Digital Output Gain Controls" down to -17 after toggling "Link Headphones Gain Controls". Keep in mind that I use the Headphone volume boost mod which is posted somewhere here on XDA, so unless you also use that, you might want to turn it to -10 or so. After that it was as simple as turning volume a few steps higher than normal and listening to music with NO white noise/static . Best part is that if you're using speakers where the volume is too low, you can use the same app to boost the volume past what's standard. That also includes your phone speakers, but be careful not to break your phone or other equipment.
BTW, I use the Z5 Compact, and I'm suspecting you Z5 users to have more kernels to choose between. Also, this might use more battery or something, don't know and don't care.
Gonna go and post this on Z5C forum too, good luck
Edit: Also, the FauxSound app has a bug where your settings will reset when you open the app/browse through its menus. TURN DOWN THE VOLUME BEFORE CHANGING THE SETTINGS. Or else you'll get your volume turned up to max and blow up your ears. It also MIGHT reset when phone has idled, and will (depending on your settings) reset when you reboot your device.
Also, small bug when phone has idled, if noise is higher on one earpiece or goes up and down, go into the app and drag "PowerAmp" up or down.

Edit: Wrong acc :|

One possibility could be the Audioflinger
The Audioflinger has the normal outputs like Direct, Fast, Deep Buffer, etc. and a special one made by Sony for Sony devices called Sony High Resolution Audio API
This cause why we have DSEE-HX and why we can hear Hi Res songs on all Sony phones up to Z3
So my theory is then that they made some mistakes on the Audioflinger on the normal outputs which cause this static noise, and that's then why u don't have it on DSEE-HX because there the Sony Hi Res Audio API works and that is a new output
I hope I could help a bit with that, again that's just a theory and I just can know that when I have the source code
Your PDesire

Hi everybody
I've had the same issue described in the 1st post since I bought my z5 e6653.
Now I updated it to 32.3.A.0.376, Nougat. Nothing seems to have changed,but I experienced interesting things, even if i don't know if they are related to the nougat update but my situation at this moment is the following:
Google play music or Sony music: headphones + DSEE HX on-> perfect sound
Google play music or Sony music: without headphones -> noise even with DSEE HX
Any video or game: noise anyhow
But...
First strange thing:
Spotify with or without headphones, DSEE HX on or off..perfect sound! It's the only app at this moment to have a perfect sound without any "help" nor DSEE HX !
Second:
I read something above about faux sound, but I tried with a free app that is "volume booster goodev": when you open this app it's just a pop up and you can choose the % of boost. That's the strange thing: I press play in Google play music, then I set the % of boost on 0 or 1% in that pop up and...the noise goes away!! The same volume (1% boost is not so much and it works even with 0%) but without this annoying noise! And it seems to be working with all of my apps.
Why a simple app can solve this problem while Sony doesn't move a finger?

Dolby Atmos for android pie

Dolby Atmos for android pie. Working well.

This is great! Thanks for uploading this. Btw is this ported from another device, or something?

No, just extracted from the zte axon 9 pro. Pie beta build

Thanks brother
Is it working fine ???

Been running it since OP plopped it on here and it's been working good. No crashes or weird behavior.

What is different from previous versions is that the various presets have all equalisers flat. And no settings for volume leveller or increased bass. Would be nice to know what the presets equaliser settings would be. I am using a TA-1021 Nokia, not sure if that is a phone thing. Would be nice to have the presets set to its proper settings. Like Dynamic, Intelligent,. warm,..

On my Nokia 6 2017 TA-1021 (Android 9), I hear no difference in sound quality ie. with or without the app. Anyway after the upgrade from Oreo 8.1 to Pie 9.0, the Doby Atmos feature dissapeared.

I have the same Nokia version, but I have Dolby as default (not the detailed equaliser settings, but just music mode and theater mode)

Yes me too but toggling the default Dolby Music/Theater mode settings has no effect on the sound. It is broken.

Yes the app stays open etc but it doesn't change anything unfortunately

I've a doubt!
Does the Dolby Atmos enhancement is for Out-speakers or for Earphones?
Why I'm asking this is because when I turn the Dolby settings off, the sound volume from the speakers is little bit increased but it's noisy. When I turn the settings on, the sound "quality" is good but the volume is too low.
The sound enhancement is working properly only with earphones.
(This is not about the app uploaded of this thread. I'm talking about the Default Dolby surround sound settings in the Nokia 6).
Please answer me, if anyone knows!

i think this dolby atmos working well in nougat version both speaker phone and audio peripheral. But after update in oreo even on pie, its not working as we have expected. In this case, on nougat speaker phone get stereo feels.
On oreo still has stereo but louder in bottom speaker, but in pie earpiece speaker volume is so low. we cannot feels stereo feels anymore, i think just we only heard right or left only of playback.

if you understand some sound library in system, maybe we can mod some audio mixer.

I'm even unable to understand your technical terms

App crashing on Mi Pad 4 with HavocOS 2.6

Try changing the vertical frequency bars, you will get the difference. Increasing the dB of left hand side bars will give you better bass. I am using the same device TA-1021. The difference is clearly audible?

How to download

How can I go back to Nougat!

What is the difference you see

There is no sound boost when ther slider is all the way to the right for clarity as well as sound.
Even if there is a sound boost,it is very very small

Depends on a lot of things actually...what app were you using while trying to boost sound through the video toolbox?, what were you listening it in..I mean , was it via 3.5 mm jack headphones or the inbuilt speakers or via bluetooth? All will give different reulsts and also depends on whether any other sound settings were tinkered as well.

Ok..So were you tinkering with the equalizer and other settings found in phone settings--->sound effects prior to doing this sound boost or was it in memory?This happens to me quite often when I play around with both settings..i.e. the sound effects settings and the video toolbox sound clarity and volume boost. The only way out for me was to clear the memory though recent apps and start the youtube app again and this time the sound settings in video toolbox actually works. Dont do both at the same time if thats the reason why its happening ( make sure both the sound effects and the youtube app is cleared from the memory). Best identified through headphones. On a side note, best setting for me via the video toolbox sound boost is clarity on 2 or 3 and volume on 2 or 3.

I haven't played around with the sound effects in settings yet, it's set on smart preset already,when you increase the sound and clarity can you actually sense the increase in sound quality or is it minimal?

Marked difference... quite an increase in sound quality...BTW mine is set on Video/Voice most of the times in Preset. I find that best in terms of loudness and have tinkered with the equalizer giving it a bit of bass. But thats about it
Edit Update: The video toolbox sound effects have little to no effect when the preset is kept in smart. Video or voice gives a good difference. Kindly check and confirm if thats the case.
