I can't figure out why music equalizer apps don't work for me. I have a stock G2 (D801), and I've tried multiple EQs. None of them seem to do anything since I upgraded to Lollipop. I have a music player with an internal EQ that does change sound, but only inside the app.
I don't know if this is a Lollipop issue, or because I'm rooted, or using GravityBox, if it's DorimanX, or what. Anybody with any of these able to get an EQ to work for stuff like Spotify?

I have mixed reviews from Galaxy Note users about my free Speaker Boost app (source code is here). The app is supposed to boost media volume (in the usual way, by using the Equalizer API). Most reviewers say it doesn't work, but one says it works.
I'd like to get to the bottom of this. To that end, I'm posting here. If anybody wants to try it (heeding all the warnings; if you use Speaker Boost at too loud a setting, you can bust a speaker--three or four reviews, for other devices, testify to this; my feeling is that it's safer for voice than music), I would appreciate reports.
If it works for some but not all people, maybe we can try to figure out what the differences are. If it works for nobody, I have another idea how to get it working, but I'll need help from users.
Working for me, Criskelo v8 & Speedmod Kernel 3-6 just incase it matters.
Is there anybody it doesn't work for?
It does not work on the Stock Music Player since it has its own equalizer presets but works on other players on ICS and I assume it will do the same on Gingerbread. The increase in sound is not that loud but this little boost is definitely nice.
Most sound boosting apps do not work on the stock music player. You should probably mention it on the description to avoid getting bad reviews.

Hey, you're right. On my Epic 4G Touch with 2.3.6, it also doesn't work in the stock music player (well, actually, I don't use Speaker Boost myself, but instead I use Earpiece, which has some additional functions, but it does the audio boost the same way). I've never used the stock music player before, actually (I never listen to music; I use sound boost for movies and audiobooks). Thanks for the hint that the stock music player's equalizer is overriding this. I think that at on some devices I can override the stock music player's equalizer by grabbing the session ID of the music player audio session from the log, and attaching an equalizer to it with higher priority than the music player's equalizer. I will experiment with that when I have some time.
First: I searched and didn't found anything related
My question is whether there's a possibility to add apps to the functionality of AudioFX. Play Music and ACE Music Player are the only apps I have installed which are using AudioFX. I'm listening to a lot of YouTube music and it would be glorious if AudioFX would work with YT, too. Anyone has got an idea?
So, enyone knows how to modify AudioFX to works in all apps, like global equalizer ?
I've tried anything so far but couldn't find any option for that. It's about the controls that come up within the quicksettings. I don't use MIUIs music player, so they are pretty much useless for me. Anyone else got rid off that controls?
(sorry for not providing a screenshot, but everytime i try to take on, the quicksettings-bar disappears...)
No Option for this. Try to uninstall or freeze the stock music player.
I just bought an AT&T Note 5 yesterday. While loving it, I can't get the equalizer to work. I've tried several equalizer apps and the Spotify onboard equalizer but none of them work. The only one that does work is the PowerAMP built-in EQ. But I only use Spotify as my main source of music as all of my playlists and collection are through the app. My downloaded playlists are not recognized by PowerAMP so I can't locate them with the app. Has anyone had anything similar or any info on how to remedy the issue?
Hi, can someone please help me for using equalizer with the stock music app
V4A is not processing any track when am on stock music player
I really love how the stock music player looks and functionality but however it lacks an equalizer or the sound quality it deserves.
I've noticed that it works on rare occasion on some specific mp3 contents only, then the system overrides it the next track.
Its been 2 week since am trying every night to make it work but nothing..really desperate now and require some help
Im using stock Marshmallow B571 updated using TWRP recovery tool and am rooted with SUPERSU 2.68
Music app version is 7.1.41 and V4A 2.3.4.0
I won't use the stock music app because of that, and it won't access music files on my SD card either.
I use Poweramp. It's a million times better than stock.

I was using poweramp too but it doesnt support theme anymore and i dont like how it looks , the stock music player looks beautiful,simple and minimalistic in its latest version and i think it just needed to use the viper audio as engine...as far as i konow there is something to do with audio.conf....maybe delete some script there or remplacing will force it to always use Viper as sound engine
