WHAT IT IS...
This mod will activate your handset speaker to work at the same time as your main speaker while playing music, watching videos, movies, when phone rings, etc....not as good as the 6's duall front speakers but better then 1...I called it surround sound because when i made this originally the phone i used had a rear speaker and with this mod the sound kind of surrounds the phone. Obviously it isnt real surround sound but nonetheless sounds great.
DISCLAIMER...
I am not responsible in any way for anything that happens to your device whether manually installing the files or flashing zip files for the surround sound mod. You do so at your own risk. Many have tested this on their 5x phone and it works great. Enjoy
INSTALLATION...
You can install a couple different ways including extracting the files included in the zip and manually pushing them to system/etc, set permissions to rw r r, and reboot or just flash the included zips in your custom recovery?...

Volume
If your looking to leave the stock configuration of just the one main speaker, but would like to raise the volume, please refer to the picture below for the location of the value that needs to be adjusted. As i do not have the phone yet, i can't test to see how high you can go but from my past experiences on various phones 90 is about the maximum before distortion starts and sometimes even issues like reboots, freezes, etc can happen if you go too high or below the stock value of 84.
Thanks @reddv1 for testing it and posting his experience here:

CHANGING VOLUME WITH SURROUND MOD
Refer to pick below. The setup is a bit different then the stock setup above...
Surround mod flashed perfectly and is working perfectly. many thanks!
Working great. Thanks for this.
Awesome thanks for testing guys. ..
I booted the TWRP Image from fastboot and installed both zips using the ADB Sideload command without any issue.
Steps Followed:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp-2.8.7.2-bullhead.img
adb sideload Nexus_5x_Surround.zip
adb reboot
Sidenote: Do we have any specifications on the top speaker? I.E. Is it the same or different than the lower speaker. Just curious.
Thanks for the mod @sshafranko. You added a feature that I thought I would miss out on by not having the 6P.
Working perfectly on pure nexus ROM and elementalx kernel. Thanks for this mod
Works great on stock rom/kernel. Thanks!

The two speakers are completely different unfortunately but need to be. One is an internal speaker wchich is the handset and you need to put your ear up to it to hear and the other is an external, made so that you can hear it while away from the phone. I did raise the volume on the headset speaker a couple notches more then the main speaker so that the main doesnt overwhelm the headset speaker to the point that you cant hear it.
This mod just brought life to my Nexus 5X's sound! I was very skeptical at first, but when I installed it the stereo feeling was unbelievably strong given the fact that it comes off a headset speaker! Thank you so much!

Yes...the revert is if you want to go back yo stock configuration with single speaker. Not sure why you would want to tho unless returning the phone? This is like TBO apps...once you try its hard to go without it...
Anyone try with viper yet? Sounds awesome on my Note 5
Will this damage the speaker? Especially long term? Thanks

Honestly i dont know. It depends on the quality of speaker LG used. What i do know is that i have been using this mod on all my phones without any issue yet and the oldest one is almost two years old on my Note 3 which i have the volume turned up a lot more then this and no problems yet.
So i would say no but i cant be sure. On another note the speaker is not hard to change at all if it does get damaged and usually is pretty cheap ranging from $6 to $15 depending on phone. Im not sure of the exact price for the 5x but ill take a look.

This caused me to do a little research and I found that the 4.3 update included support for USB audio docks. I am wondering if now I can use a Fiio e17 or other USB DAC with my Nexus for ALL phone audio and not just that from the USB Audio Recorder PRO app. Anyone have a USB DAC they can try it out on?

I have an old Fiio E5 and have seriously considered upgrading to either an E07K or E17. If it works with the N4, that would seal the deal for sure! We need someone to test this

I could test it out, I got a FiiO E07K USB DAC. But I'm really busy with a lot of family issues, so I'm kinda interested to see if it works or not. Just I don't have time to try it out.

Tested it, I can tell you this much. It doesn't work out of the box, I have AOSPA 4.3 on my Nexus 4, by default nothing happens. Also the fact that nexus 4 doesn't do USB OTG by default. I also tested it on my tablet, the Motorola XOOM MZ601, with TeamEOS 4.2.2 ROM also doesn't work out of the box even with OTG support. Probably needs audio drivers.

PA doesn't use DSP manager though, right? This probably means it still wouldn't work on CM with DSP manager, but I wasn't sure if CM possibly implemented the right drivers, or if DSP manager just shows this by default for all devices (probably more likely). Thanks for getting back though man

It could possibly work with the Nexus 4, though it's pretty stupid, you need to supply your own power even though the DAC has it's own power.

Hi,
Just wondering if any devs will come across this thread since I was hoping that they can make somehow a touch screen calibration app for the z1 since it really has touch issues. You may refer to the thread found in the sony forums and youtube to see how worse is the issue.
Touch screen fails to recognize touches and its really annoying that it affects the daily use and you cant use your phone when gaming..
I really hope someone kind will help me out as this will also be a great help to other people who have the same exact problem.
Many thanks.

Is there a difference between your flashable zip and the one here in the forums? my model is c6903 LTE. will it affect my phone since I'm using what's designated in my country. Or if that did not solve the issue can I use SUS to revert back to my original firmware?
EDIT ADD: so you do have before the touch issue when using the phone during games and when its flat on a surface in which the phone stops registering touches?

I just merged 259's system in flashable .257 zip.
You can uncheck all "Wipe:" and uncheck Kernel only and check all others in "Exclude:" to prevent overwriting your system or baseband.
I'm using C6903 UK LTE, I flashed my zip and kernel only and I can still use LTE on .259 with no problem.
Yes, you can always use SUS or Flashtool to reverting back.
My issue was during games.

Thanks for the detailed explanation mate, I'll send a pm also to you later. I'll try what you have said by the time I got home. I hope it works. For the mean time, may I ask a favor? can you please try placing your z1 on a flat surface and try running the service test to see if the problem is really solved since the issue is very hard to replicate. Several tries/attempts are needed.
First try placing your phone on top of a paper, then on a pillow and last is on a flat table.
Sorry to trouble you but you really got my hopes up for my ****ty z1.

Thanks mate, been waiting for your reply as I'm refreshing the page once in a while. Have you tried continuous lines or scribble since that triggers the problem when you're using the screen continuously without lifting your finger.
Sorry if I'm really bothering you but I really just have to confirm and once this fixed the problem, I can share your tip to the guys at the sony forum so that they will be freed from the touch screen curse. I really appreciate your help and effort.

Yep, that's my main gripe with the touch issue as it loses touch and returns again. I'll try what you have told me at home then if it works or not I'll get back to you.
I'll be holding on to what you have said that the touch problem is not there anymore since you flashed .259 :good:
users on .259 reported that their touchscreen issue was not solved even after updating to .259

If you get it then put it out here, let the community benefit.
As for customer support, i emailed them about the bootloader issue with people who have a status of No and the response was just like i was speaking with a robot, i asked is there a way around it and that the previous response was neither helpful nor educational and I got another of the same responses, i've sent a third email asking if they just copy and paste an email from a list and if I don't get a human response with at least a glimmer of hope then i'll be boycotting Sony for life and i'll make sure everyone knows how poor their services are.
I've never asked them a question in my life, I did mention that and this is the response I get, lol forget that, I've learnt a few lessons from getting this phone, first one being never buy a sony again and second, always check if the bootloader is unlockable and not locked because of a networks request.
Hey guys... i have a moto G that came with Android 4.3 and Call recording was working perfectly using the app Automatic Call recorder.
Now the phone auto updated to 4.4.2 and the call recorder has stopped working... and i have tried about 15 different call recorder apps but none seem to work. They manage to record the mic... but not the speaker.
Im on Stock 4.4.2 and unrooted.
Also Call recording is legal where i am so no need to worry.
Kit kat wont record calls with any program from line on this device; it did with JB perfectly. Idk why

The only one expected to work is Callrecorder, but you need to be root and on a CM rom.
Settings fixed to Moto x and CAF. It's supposed to work but I can't assure because I'm on Unrooted stock rom.
¿Could anybody test for us and share results?

Yea I tried this app as well but as you said I think it needs root... Not sure about the CM thing... But it doesn't work on stock unrooted...

No, is not a question of KitKat, because I have other devices running kitkat and I can record calls without problems.
I don't know who is the black hand that has disabled this option on Moto G under KitKat...

Are you sure its recording both ways of the conversation...?? Input and output...?? Because seems you only made a small clip. Most apps do record the mic and if you volume is loud enough it, the mic will also catch some of the incoming convo as well if its quiet enough...
But being able to actually record the proper incoming sound feed is what's the issue.
Please confirm this and let us know the result...

I can confirm that after someone call me, or i call... But i think is working, because sound in my 'test' was clear on both sides. It was not only my voice loud and clear, and other was not only something in behind...
You can try it too
Now i can confirm it...
Both sides are loud and clear... But time shown near recording on 'main screen' is wrong... My last call was more than 10s long, and time shown is only 1s.

Good to know, but I decided to downgrade to 4.3 because I didn't want to unlock the bootloader and lose warranty... Thankfully we can do that... But annoyingly the phone will ask to update every day... Don't know if that can be turned off...
Also I read in the description that the call recorder in the thread is only a trial... You need to buy the app eventually... And can't make online play transactions where I am...

Good to know, but I decided to downgrade to 4.3 because I didn't want to unlock the bootloader and lose warranty... Thankfully we can do that... But annoyingly the phone will ask to update every day... Don't know if that can be turned off...
Also I read in the description that the call recorder in the thread is only a trial... You need to buy the app eventually... And can't make online play transactions where I am...

I got myself recently upgraded to much hyped MotoG 4.4.2, 16gb, Dual sim. Phone. I am shocked to find that none of the recording apps are working which were working on my earlier Sony phone. I need this facility badly. Just because of this reason i have started disliking this phone.
Anyone please suggest me pointers to documented steps to get call recorder working ?. I don't want to root this phone and loose warranty. I need this facility badly.

Well unfortunately there is no way or form to get call recording to work on KitKat at all, whether you root or not. The only thing you can do is downgrade the software back to 4.3
Having said that there are various apps that say the recording is working on 4.4, but that's BS. What's working is only mic recording, not proper 2 way recording.

Please give me the documented procedure you used for downgrade. Did you notice any side-effect due to this downgrade?. Was any functionality broken ? Please help. How long will it take for downgrading ?. Any precautions/backup i need to take. Sorry if they are trivial questions.
TIA

There is no effect on the phone itself, except your going to an older firmware which is not as good as the newer software by rule of thumb. But nothing which is really a deal breaker. It is just unruly that for once there is a phone that gets regular immediate updates, but your forced to use old outdated firmware which is missing new added features.
Having said that, you mentioned you are using the dual sim moto G, so I'm not 100% sure if they phone launched on 4.3 or directly on 4.4. IF it launched with KitKat, then sorry you cannot downgrade. If it launched in JB 4.3, then you can, by downloading the factory image which is about 350mb. The procedure itself takes about 15 mins if you know what your doing... Takes about 45 mins if you dont.
Just search xda for a factory flashing thread specific to your phone, I'm sure there should be one. It will have all steps listed.
Be advised tho... When downgrading the firmware, ALL data on the phone will be erased... Both system AND the SD partition. So yes you will need to backup your imp stuff.

When I was interested on that feature I usually used an app called Callerrecorder or something like that. By then it worked fine, I dunno if still being avalaible or updated btw...
Can anyone please confirm if a call recording apps work on new update 4.4.4 kitkat update on Moto G (16GB version).
This feature was working on 4.3 and was broken on 4.4.2. When i checked with Motorola Customer support executives on chat, few days back they asked me to wait for the next update.
Can anyone confirm if any of the call recording apps are working ?

CallRecorder is working on KitKat
Sent from my tablet./Odoslané z môjho tabletu.
I think I have lost my patience today. I have waited for one month, hoping that something would come up about this, but no, Xposed still doesn't work (I am not blaming the dev at all), the new OB6 update did ****e about it, and other apps like SoundHUD are just meaningless.
I have seen so many mods for LP already, full screen call, UPSM etc., but no one has thought about doing this, I mean bringing back all the peace and privacy of the world (at least for me, however plenty others are there I am sure).
I can pay 6 bucks (USD/ 8 EURO) for the app, yeah its ridiculously cheap but I am still a student. Other people who badly need it please also mention here, and how much you are willing to pay. No one will and should make anything for free.
Thanks in advance.

Could you tell me which two ones mate? I have been seeing the development section for past few days (even when I am not really a fan of custom ROMs) and saw that one or two ROMs have the Silent mode feature (especially in the ROM which says bring back the Silent mode from Note Edge) but then saw that users are reporting that when Silent mode is on Alarm doesn't sound! From then I haven't looked at the section thinking that no one will actually bother to do anything about it further. But if there's one ROM I would happy to try it.
Try either g00h v3.5 tweaked or darklords v2.1. The people saying about the alarm not working in silent mode are just thick lol. When you set an alarm you have to click settings in alarm app and check to sound even in silent mode...that's it mate. The choice is yours but u personally use g00h v3.5 tweaked note 4 port.
Samsung added it with their latest update.

Oh goodie, these type of people are really ... great
Anyway, thanks once again, will flash the ROM at night. Can't believe how many hours I have wasted behind this!
@celderic: Dude, I am on the OB6 ROM. Samsung did add that but it's just a farce. I mean Silent mode should only make the device Silent, nothing else. But if you enable Silent mode on this ROM (OB6), this disables the LED notification, meaning LED won't fire in case for missed events, and the screen won't turn on either, so what's really the point of adding it? Well nothing! They just replaced the damned None (Interruptions) mode with this setting, just one advantage, with this Silent Mode the Alarm sounds, with None that wasn't the case.
I want the REAL SILENT MODE, like it was on KitKat, LED will glow, screen will turn on on notifications, everything, EXACTLY how it was on KitKat. This simple thing proves how much stupidity can human beings sometimes undertake, well thanks to Google

No worries mate. Have fun and if you choose g00h v3.5 I know you'll love it. It's so fast yet smooth as butter and just like having a note 4 lol [emoji6]

Ha ha absolutely mate. I am confident that I will like it.
Just confirming in case, (the above user reminded me this to ask actually) with Silent mode on the LED does work right? And the Screen also comes on in case of notifications?

Ouch, now I am kinda scared
Well if you have around couple of minutes to waste for this idiot could you kindly test? I mean just put the phone on Silent mode and give yourself a missed call or a text, and kindly notice whether the screen turns on or not and the LED is blinking afterwards or not? Also make sure that you are not using any of those priority modes, I mean you should be on that 'Always interrupt' settings.
If you could kindly check this for me I will be really grateful, I mean it could save me a gigabyte of data

The simplest way go to settings then sound and notifications then go to vibration intensity and there make intensity to minimum (zero ) then u have silent mode..

I'm on g00h tweaked note 4 port v3.5 mate. The layout etc is selectable in the aroma setup.
Last days I was trying to do a dual speaker magisk module for this device but no luck yet, im not very experienced programmer, only an advanced user and basic programmer skills. Some help would be very appreciated or if you want try it with me. I was using these sources as base files/info to start:
K30 Pro mixer files:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/15mQ5EOy1RdZVNEzfS5wiIBLxUrKHN_Gs/view?usp=sharing
Mi 10 Pro mixer files (only Xiaomi device with dual stereo audio):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wYro7lwfn1agt_fBvM5ljuANHCIZZoa9/view?usp=sharing
K20 Pro dual speaker mod source code:
https://github.com/acervenky/k20produal
DualSpeaker sound mod guide for all devices:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/mod-dual-speaker-soundmod-devices-root-t3735280
Mixer files are device audio configuration (codecs, earpieces, headphones, speakers) and we need modify it, these files are located in system/vendor/etc folder under root.
If nobody does it this week, I will give it a go next week.

I wonder if we can port dual speakers config files from new K30 Ultra and get dual speakers sound on K30 Pro, same with dtbo.img with 120hz panel settings from K30 Ultra and port it here also.

If it's enabled it's an earpiece not a speaker. You can test it yourself with some apps to route the audio to the earpiece and you'll see (or hear I guess) how low the volume is and it can't be used as a stereo speaker. Not to mention the possibility of damaging it.

With every device launched, many of them get magisk module support to enable dual speakers as Mi 9T Pro:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/themes/magisk-dual-speaker-mod-redmi-k20-pro-t3952416
And Mi 9T Pro/ k20 Pro and K30 Pro are similar devices and it can be done here also... so this thread have a purpose, stop blaming without a reason.

It's to weak.
I did some modifications to mixer_paths.xml file, but system was stucked at MIUI logo. Tested on Global ROM and Xiaomi.eu. Wherever you do, you will get this problem and you couldn't test your modified file because of this. At the slightest change of this file you will get only MIUI logo. System doesn't like changes. So, waiting for custom ROMs, where we can easily change system files.

Sure but with 9t pro it helped a lot to have dual speaker mod. Sure it didn't have the same levels but it helped with directionality etc.
For this phone is missing dual speakers and refresh rate at 120hz, also is a crazy phone!!
This two point can be resolve by the software?
I am on android beta 11!

Reading your comment from google cam thread saying bs comments like "newer is not better" when everybody with a minimal knowledge knows newer hardware is always better I see you are another troll as @Linuxkek... problem here is we dont have development compared to poco f1 or oneplus devices but dual speaker can be done by software and same with refresh rate on the screen like the Mi 9t Pro.
100% doable since my POCO already bugs out and does it anyway destroying my earpiece with an earrape effect :laugh:

newer hardware may be better on paper, but unless the software is cooked well to provide you with any meaningful benefit, it ain't better, calling people trolls because you disagree due to blatant lack of knowledge and emotional intelligence will get you places

Are you still investigating this issue? Quite interesting...
