surround sound mod - OnePlus 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods

i've been using the surround sound mod (enabling sound through earpiece speaker when using media) on my nexus 5 for several years. Is there something similar for oneplus phones? (op3 being delivered next week )

you wont need it as the audio is killer on the device.

Fair enough, but it still won't be stereo right?

I'll do it as soon as I get my device

Try viper4Android or Dolby digital sound Mod.. Works fine

Sorry, but the sound is not killer ? Try out Huawei Mate 8, then you know killer sound. Huawei P9 Plus with its stereo speaker is not better than OnePlus 3. So we can be happy with the speaker. Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ speaker is a bit better. Galaxy S7 Edge speaker is as good as OnePlus 3. HTC 10 disappointed me the most. Worst speaker

Waiting for this mod.

You probably haven't used Lenovo Vibe X3 which has an output of 120 decibels from its stereo speakers with ESS SABRE 9018C2M.

How does the sound compare to the s7 edge and nexus 6p?

Any update on a surround sound mod for this?

Was supposed to get my device today but that didn't happen
Can someone upload their mixer_paths.xml that's on OOS? Its located in /system/etc/
Edit: nvm I just got it

OOS is a pain in the ass, moving to a cm base and seeing if I have better luck

In case you still haven't got your device: let me know if you need to test something, more than willing to help

Tinkering with the mixer paths right now. Headphones are fine but speaker volume is horrible. Vibration is horrible on this phone too.

Yeah, I'm willing to help in any way possible if it means dual speaker output!

For some reason both CM and OOS us mixer_paths_tasha.XML instead of mixer_paths.xml.
This means two things
1. It's definitely going to harder to identify which value corresponds to what peice of hardware
2. Theoretically we would only need one mod for cm and OOS
If anyone figures out the values for the speaker, let me know because so far I'm not having any luck

is this just a matter of try and error until the values are found or is there a chance at "no stereo at all"?

How loud can it go on headphones?

Yo.
I need an answer on this. Can this phone go loud on headphones? Opinions are very mixed... How is it compared to Moto G?
I heard there are newer versions of N5, did they change something with volume or not? Maybe Android updates does something to it?
Pls notice that I'm talking about headphone out, not speakers.
Mine goes very loud. I also use viper4android though.
There is only one version of the n5

trollop thinks he's funny
could someone say how it is without v4a, just stock phone?
Not running stock but it's plenty loud. There's a mod and an app to let you change the mixer_paths. The DAC still isn't the greatest but at least you can turn up the volume.

Could you please tell me what this app is called?
So I can basically install it, change some numbers in mixer_paths and get higher than stock volume WITHOUT DISTORTION? That would be great!
Here you go
Loud enough to blow my ears out on max volume lol. It depends on your headphones too anyways.

In what unit of measure? Decibels? The output partially depends on your headphones and rigging up a decibel meter isn't exactly going to yield great results. Also, if I answered in decibels, I don't think you'd be we to process the information usefully.
..and that is why trollop was funny. You asked an unanswerable question. 11 is as valid as anything else because there is no unit of measure that answers the question that you could possibly understand.

[Q] Bluetooth Audio a bit low?

Hey guys,
Recently switched from wired headphones to wireless Bluetooth ones and am noticing that the volume is significantly lower via Bluetooth audio. I am using the Google play music app. The music is a bit louder when streaming etc but its about 75% of what i would want the max to be when using google music. Anyways to adjust this setting? Maybe something in the mixerpaths.xml for Bluetooth audio?
Thanks!

Have a look at divine beats thread or any other sound mod thread,if it says that it works with Android O then okay but if it doesn't then you'll have to live with it until the developers release sound mods for Android O.

Yes,fix somewhere lies in that file itself and I guess with a little google search you'll be able to find the solution which includes modifying that file.

Tried Google and XDA extensively. No dice.

I just got this phone last night and spent the morning rooting it to install viper4android and Im pretty disappointed at how low the volume is with this phone even with everything maxed. My $40 budget Samsung blew this thing out of the water volume wise.
Is there no way to mod any of the sound files to get more volume from the DAC? I notice there is no default_gain.conf like Samung phones and Mixer_paths.xml is blank. This is a great phone but the sound is an absolute bummer.

Pair V4A with Dolby Atmos. This is what I did and volume drastically increased.
Thanks for the heads up I'll check that out.

He already did.
After adding Atmos to the v4a I was able to get a small increase by turning on virtualizer and volume leveler. It's still not too my liking but it definitely is better which I am grateful for.
There is nothing you can edit manually as far as gain or headphone volume in any config/XML files on this thing? These audio apps are able to make a difference but it's nowhere near enough. On my phone the 2/3 volume to full volume really doesn't change at all only the slider changes position.
some dev could pls try to port stereo speakers mod which is available for mi 3 which makes earpiece has speaker

Request: Install VIPER4Android on Note 3

Guys:
I did install successfully Viper4android on the NOte 3, using this link:
http://downloadmodapks.com/install-viper4android-on-miui-9-all-phones/
However its a little complicated, and everytime i flash a new rom, it becomes too much work to re-install...
So my request, like the tread we have too install Gcam with Magisk, if someone could create some kind of file to simplify all this operation.
Just for the record, as audiophile guy:
There is the sound from Note 3, and THEN from VIper4, MUCH SUPERIOR!
Magisk modules by Viper520... and by Shady... works good.
MiuiEu 9.5.x
Dear friend:
Yesterday i did install Viper using Magisk. Soon i arrive at home i can test if it woks...
Note aside: Didnt clean Mi sound original...
Well after some tests:
It works, but the sound is nothing special and looks too "artificial". Sometimes Viper4 doesnt activate.
Im comparation with my "old" Find 7, the sound just....sucks.
Tests were made using professional earphones KZ ZS10 and KZ ZST, Poweramp and rock and classical music....

So, you're saying that installing the way you referred on the first post provides a better sound than installing with magisk?
I've installed with magisk, it works, but doesn't do much.
In-ear headphones professional? Are you kidding? @Mord0rr
They are audiophile phones.... better than 98% users use....

Agree.....
I always set the Viper on the mini tower(BT) and then I make the correction for the headphones.
Try the #Viper520 version, choose an older V4A(2.3.4) during installation.
Here are some IRS/DDC profiles for popular headphones:

For Mi N3 you need usb-c or very good bt headphones.
U can try also AinurJamesDSP, AinurSauron, AM3D, Dolby-Atmos M modules(disable V4A 1st, maybe need AudioModLib). I cant find best for you.
On my old Oppo, sound is great, but the Note 3 it really....sucks, Even stock.
Tks...gonna try those!
Have a good vacations

[MOD][Magisk][Oreo / Pie] Dual Speaker Mode for N5X systemlessly

Update: Tested and working on Pie also
About
This Module uses the Mixer file from this thread: [Mod] SURROUND SOUND
I just created a systemless module for Magisk
Code:
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included.
Nexus 5X has 2 speakers but one is limited for calls only...
So this module enables the earpiece for media and your call speaker will work as secondary speaker
Perfomance
I've tested it on latest stock 8.1.0 (OPM7.181005.003, Oct 2018) & working without any problem or distortion in sound :laugh:
Call sound is not affected by this mod as it only enables the earpiece while playing media ( video, audio, ringtone, etc )
Download
Google Drive
Installation
* Magisk Version required: 17.0 above
1. Download the Dual Speaker Mode for N5X zip from GDrive or from attached file here
2. Flash through the Magisk Manager App or through latest TWRP
Uninstallation
Just flash the module zip again from either Magisk Manager app or TWRP...

The speaker at the buttom sounds louder but nothing important.
Also, the first speaker has distortion but I think it's because of my kernel.

Hello again.
I'm having troubles. I'm a rock and metal guy mostly so when I listen to some songs the principal guitar, specially in solos, sounds so quiet and the second guitar sounds louder.
I know this isn't from the song because i tested in other device and my PC too.
Do you anything about this? Any settings or something?
I put the gain in 0 again to test.

Basically the ear piece speaker is small, has lower sound than primary media speaker and is only for calls. We enabled it for media also but the sound can never be equal to the primary speaker
Unfortunately it's not a pure stereo experience like Nexus 6P
