Audio problems - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the same audio jumping/stuttering as many other people do,using latest purity and code blue kernel,I don't stream music over my Wi-Fi,all my music is in the internal storage(in the code blue thread i saw a guy who said that he solved his problem by keeping 2 cores online when screen is off,as I don't have 10 posts I will post here my question).How do I change "max_screenoff_cores" ? When I go to sys/module/cpuidle/parametres/off ,in the "off" file is just a 0 ,is that cpu0 or another thing,or I am in the wrong place...),I don't want to use synapse,there must be some int.d script to activate something in the sys/ directory.

Try a different kernel and see (one without faux sound)

What about the stock kernel and the kernel that comes with your ROM?

Increasing the cpu max screen off freq. won't change anything IMO.
At first try a different player (I recommend you NexMusic for testing the sound issues). FYI I noticed audio distortions with PowerAmp when using a big hosts file.

Viper4android installed?

I have viper4android installed with (super audio quality driver),i'm using poweramp and pvstar+,i'm getting audio stuttering with both players,on speaker have the same problem when the screen is turned off... @Primokorn ,I don't know if it will work or it won't i'm just tierd of this problem...and yes I have the same problem with the facory imagine.

Remove viper and use stock kernel and see if the problem persists

[Update][7/22][MOD][MIUI]DSPManager+Beats Audio for MIUI v4, HTC One X Snapdragon S4

Apologies for the last 2 posts, but the issues are hard to fix (like the sound echo, I'm really not experimenting it), and my abilities are limited, I'm not a professional developer, I'm not even adult, I'm just a student.
I would really appreciate if you guys keep supporting me and give me time to do things.
I'm sorry guys.
Alpha 2 up!
After flashing MIUI v4 I found that the SRS it includes isn't that good and it makes audio less clear.
So I searched for DSPManager in MIUI China, found one for XiaoMi and modified it a bit to let it work on HTC One XL, also translated it into English so you guys can understand
No need to backup: the installation rar will backup for you!
Run this on your computer. THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP.
The sound improved a lot after flashing this. DSPManager just rules.
Still needs improvement, this is only Alpha 2.
What this RAR contains:
Beats Audio files (may be a fake one, I'm gonna update it)
DSPManager & related libs
.bat files to guide you throughout the installation.
A Readme that answers all of your questions.
NOTICE: Disable any EQ in MIUI Music Player to make it work in MIUI Music.
Dis-check "Direct Volume Control" in PowerAMP to make it work in PowerAMP.
Known issue(s): "Dynamic Range Compression" in DSP is not working in MIUI Music (Perhaps other players also).
Change log:
Alpha 1
- Initial release.
Alpha 2
- Fixed severe bugs in installer. Installer working properly now!
Works with every version of MIUI v4.
Consider donating me! So I won't give up halfway.

Yes I think so but this audio_effects file is tuned for MIUI.
But I think it's okay to try.
BTW CM doesn't have a DSP???

Sorry, CM does, but I threw it in because i figured somebody else would ask. However, AOKP has nothing for the sound and it has lower audio volumes than other ROMs out there.

vlc I don't know but MIUI Music should work perfectly. Did you switch to headphone mode instead of speaker in DSP?
Works fantastically with the latest build of aokp. Had to modify the script a bit tho to work with adb over wifi since my tethered adb isn't working right now. Thanks for this!

[ROM][AOSP][69MB] FoxhoundPlus *MAJOR UPDATE IS COMING!*

I tested almost every rom with every kernel and mods.
Each rom got advantages which I prefered but none of the could please me to 100 percent.
So, one day I thought about making my own first one...
It should definetely Gingerbread based because of the battery drain and the beta state of ICS.
I thought we got enough stock based roms and one CM7-based one.
I wanted to make something NEW.
FoxhoundPlus is the result.
First: the disclamer
Code:
*************************************************************************
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
break ups with your crush because you didn't hear your phone,
or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
Please do some research if you have any concerns about
features included in this ROM and read this whole thread
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications
and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device,
I will laugh at you.
****************************************************************************
FEATURES:
[br]based on AOSP 2.3.7
[br]slim-rom: under 80mb ram
[br]faster deepsleep
[br]AOSP mazen912 kernel, SkyHigh or Broodkernel
[br]AOSP Launcher
[br]TW4Launcher
[br]Removed Bloatware
[br]FoxEngine
[br]Added FoxBloatware:
Code:
no frill CPU
CPU spy
DSPManager
Adobe FlashPlayer 11.1 (latest)
Note
SDMaid
SuperUser
TaskManager
TWEAKS
[br]rooted
[br]deodexed
[br]zipaligned
[br]changed audio.lib, etc.
[br]I8150 grafic drivers
[br]I/O Enhanced
[br]init.d support
[br]some build.prop tweaks
SPECIAL EXTRA
[br]added MGS-Alarms, Notifications, Tones and UI sounds
[br]modified SystemUI.apk
[br]modified Framework-res.apk
[br]Froyo loading animation (got enogh from the gingerbread one)
[br]custom boot animation Foxhound (thanks to H4MM3R311!)
[br]Android Battery Icon
[br]swipe to remove notifications
[br]transparent drawer background
[br]CRT-On, CRT-Off effects
[br]while screenoff: changing from wifi to data to save battery (can be turned of in wifi->advanced->wifi sleep policy (the second one)
[br]black background because black is the most battery saving color (you can change that)
and a lot more which I already forgot...
KERNEL
FoxhoundPlus is AOSP based-> YOU CANNOT FLASH STOCK BASED KERNEL!
If you flash a stock based one you will risk BRICKING your rom!
This rom comes with 2 different kernel:
[br]mazen912 AOSP kernel (stock): ~no UV/OC support
-no custom boot sound
[br]SkyHigh AOSP build by Skywalker01: +UV/OC support up to 1804mhz
+custom boot sound support
-hardly working vibration
-no headset working
[br]SkyHigh non OC (didn't test it yet)
[br]Broodkernel AOSP by Broodplank1337: +UV/OC support up to 1804mhz
+custom boot sound support
-hardly working vibration
-no headset working
[br]They did a great work thank you for this!!!
[br]I would recommend using mazen912 AOSP kernel, you will reach about 50-100 more points in antutu.
INSTALLATION
Download the file/s to your SD memory card
Reboot in recovery mode (I would recommend CWM/CWM Touch or TWRP)
Wipe EVERYTHING (System, Cache, Dalvik)
Install those zip's you like.
Read the log.
Reboot and enjoy!
If you come from FoxhoundPlus itself, there is no need to wipe system (you can do this with every AOSP rom, unluckily there is only FoxhoundPlus)

Well. Maybe you should pm arco and ask how he fixed the in call volume on cm9.
I like your rom so far. Two questions:
1: Can i change widgets in the notification drawer? (Its been a long time since i used cm7 and i dunno if that is possible)
2: why dont i get a lockscreen? When i press the power button, the screen goes off. Press power again and he directly goes to where i was. No lockscreen. Even when i set pattern.
Once again, really nice work on the framework en systemui! Keep up the good work!

1. I'm afraid you cannot (maybe I can manage to "steal" the quickpanel settings app from CM7
2. Had this bug with my first version too, just reboot your device and the bug is gone forever
Very good rom is my first impression. In call volume it is one problem which must be fixed. I will continue the testing because this special rom needs more testing. I will report if more problems.

Lockscreen worked after reboot, as you say it would.
All the songs are mp3 format. So it isnt related to that.

Viper4Android working on Note 5

For those of you that don't know Viper4Android is the probably the best sound mod you can do on any android phone, I can confirm that it works on the Note 5 as my listening experience in the car has greatly improved
Prerequisites
-Must be rooted
-Skyhigh or arter97 kernel flashed
-If no custom kernel is flashed selinux must be set to permissive using the selinux app found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485
-Download Viper4Android from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
Steps
1. Download and install this zip through recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...achment.php?attachmentid=3470840&d=1442036930 (Credits to Critical Detox for finding it)
2. Launch Viper4Android and install the driver and reboot
2a. I highly recommend using this IRS. http://d-h.st/VBM
That should be it to get it working, S6 users have commented that you have to freeze a couple of apps for it to work but I can confirm that's not the case. If you have any questions or need suggestions feel free to ask

I am using a deodexed tmobile rom with Noble kernel. The SELINUX changer says I am permissive but viper4android doesnt want to work.
Any suggestions?

I am using a deodexed tmobile rom with Noble kernel. The SELINUX changer says I am permissive but viper4android doesnt want to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Original Post says you have to use SKYHIGH or ARTER97 kernel...
I couldn't get it to work. It would enable, but not process. Could you take some screenshots?

Interesting just checked, it say's not processing for me as well but playing around with the settings still changes the quality of the sound

For those of you that don't know Viper4Android is the probably the best sound mod you can do on any android phone, I can confirm that it works on the Note 5 as my listening experience in the car has greatly improved
Prerequisites
-Must be rooted
-Skyhigh or arter97 kernel flashed
-If no custom kernel is flashed selinux must be set to permissive using the selinux app found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485
-Download Viper4Android from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
Steps
1. Once downloaded don't flash in recovery(FC'ed on me), unzip the file and there should be two apks. Only install the one with the higher file size(Should be 5mb)
2. Launch Viper4Android and install the driver and reboot
2a. I highly recommend using this IRS. http://d-h.st/VBM
That should be it to get it working, S6 users have commented that you have to freeze a couple of apps for it to work but I can confirm that's not the case. If you have any questions or need suggestions feel free to ask

using a file explorer move the IRS file to SDcard/VIper4Android/Kernel

The viper I installed is the 2.3.4.0 that's the right one right?

Interesting. Are you running in compatible mode, then?
I envy all of you for getting to use Viper, I'm trying my best to hold out until I can try Samsung pay beta/release which ever comes first to me then I'll decide to root only after.
I've been wondering this for a while now. I noticed in the OP, there was a choice to use a custom kernel or stay with the stock one. Obviously, we need root to get Viper working BUT do we really need a custom kernel to root 5.1.1. On the Note 5? I'm asking because BOTH of my cars miss Viper from my Note 4 and I'm hearing the current Kernels are causing a few issues with the Note 5, thanks!

You can root using the Noble Kernel which is pretty much a stock kernel and then use the selinux app to change the kernel to permissive.

yes forgot to mention that Ill add that in the OP
Thanks for the reply, Adolfo. Are you having any issues with the Noble Kernel? People are reporting things like battery drain, rebooting and or loss of certain features, Netflix not work, etc. I miss Viper but I would like to know that my phone would be fully functional after root. Also, it seems as if only a few Kernels work with the new firmware that was released yesterday.
Keeps getting more complicated. haha.

Viper4android has nothing to do with Netflix not working, rebooting or battery drain.

While I appreciate the help, Brava, I was responding to Adolfo's recommendation of using the Noble kernel due to it being close to stock. My question was if he's having any issues with that Kernel.
I've used Viper since it's inception so I'm fully aware that it has nothing to do with any of the aforementioned symptoms.
Thanks though.
