Hi. I have a Mi4c . Excellent phone, but with a huge problem : bluetooth quality.
I have installed several ROMs and everywhere the same problem : bluetooth sound quality incredible low in calls, backgroud noises etc etc. Tested on several bluetooth devices , same problem.
What is interesting is that in media connections ( i have a portable sound speaker) the quality is excellent when streaming music. Only on calls is this problem. Talked to my nephiew , he has the same problem with the same device but a different ROM .
How is your experience ???

Hi! I'm interested in buying the Desire Z, but I'm not familiar with the sound quality on A2DP headphones on Android. On WM there are settings like bitpool in the registry that can change the quality a lot, but as far as I read, there are no such settings on Android and the quality is really bad.
Is it true or is there a way to change some settings to improve quality? This is really important to me and I don't think I would be buying a phone that can't play my music properly.
My htc hero and car stereo utilizes A2DP perfectly, streaming audio to car speakers. Have not noticed any bad quality, not åk expert though

Thank you for your reply, I'm hoping that I will be able to hear it myself sometime soon and see how it sounds.
Btw, have you had any disconnects and things like that?
I tested my jabra BT320s on a desire I have access to and the A2DP was spot on, it used the handsfree function aswell without issue pausing the music then carrying on after the call etc...
Am impressed, this was with stock tmobile UK firmware aswell.
Only personal experience
I have to say that when compared to Nokia N900 the a2dp sound quality doesn't seem to be as good. The music sounds somehow thinner. To make these comparisons I have used the same media files, same nokia bh-214 handsfree and same sennheiser mx550 headphones.
I hope it is possible to somehow tweak the a2dp sound quality since i think it's all a question of a2dp audio quality settings.
It has the be said though that in contrast to nokias bluetooth implementation the android one does handle switching from music to phone calls and back quite flawlessly.

Hello,
I have a relatively severe issue with the Bluetooth audio quality on my phone. It sounds pretty much exactly like 64kbits MP3, you can especially hear it in the high frequencies. It's somehow distorted and unclear and extremely annoying as it ruins the experience totally. Everyone who heard sound over my Bluetooth devices has heard this.
The weird thing: I experienced this with both my Galaxy S5 (G900F) and my Galaxy S6 (G920F) and every single Bluetooth device that is connected to them. I tried it with my Logitech Bluetooth Audio Adapter, Denon AVR X1100W, Logitech Boombox and my car stereo Kennwood KDC-BT35U. The audio quality is always the same.
However, with my Nexus 5, my Galaxy Tab S8.4 and my Laptop, the audio quality over Bluetooth is great! Also, if I use the headphone jack on my Galaxys, it sounds just fine. I mostly use Spotify and Google Play Music, but the problem is not there since it sounds great when using a cord.
I asked the Samsung Support about this and of course they didn't know anything. They offered replacing the device but I don't think that this makes a difference since I had the same problem on my Galaxy.
Now I am asking everyone else who has the Galaxy S5 or S6, have you experienced something like this? Any solutions? It is very frustrating.
I just solved this mystery. For a long time I have been using the Mi Fitness Band, and I was wearing it all the time, so whenever that is connected to the phone the audio quality gets very bad. At least I know what it is now!
Same here!
If my Mi Band 2 is paired in the Mi Fit app, the audio quality of ANY connected bluetooth device (aux speaker, car audio etc.) is distorted (especially high sounds)
I reinsatlled the Mi Fit app, even reseted the whole phone, nothing changes. Only if I unpair the Mi Band in the mi fit app, is the bluetooth audio quality ok.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Android 6.0.1
Xiaomi Mi Band 2 firmware V1.0.1.34
Good audio quality at Bluetooth playback
Guys,
I experienced the same when i playback via Bluetooth in my car. Since i installed Poweramp beta, you can choose some different type of audio playback quality. I set mine at 24 bit playback, 192 khz. I can hear some slight difference but i think you can not expect much of it.
Second option might be Viper4android and Dolby Atmos. These will increase earsgasm at your desire.
Give it a try and report feedback!
Here is a screenshot of it.
Poweramp has unbelivable awesome effects, but it does not eliminate the base problem: miband (or any Bluetooth LE stuff?) affects the bluetooth audio transmission.

That is true and sadly a known problem of android in general. See http://www.androidauthority.com/android-wear-ruining-bluetooth-speaker-headset-sound-656300/
Solution
I might have a solution for some of you. Good luck.
Find it in my reddit post. I can't post URL's because i am new here. I only created this account for sharing the solution.

Hi guys, I have this weird problem with my zenfone 4 max: if I am in a car my I get poor quality audio if I use the microphone of the phone (like vocal notes whatsapp, telegram or silmpy if I try to record audio).
The audio quality is so bad that my voice is incomprhensible. If Imake a call the quality is perfect and of course if I record something outside the car everything works good.
What kind of problem can be? I've been thinking about some wind filter that don't like low frequency engine humbling...
Any idea?
Hi everyone,
I seem to be having issues on the stock ROM sometimes where the audio quality drops and sounds like call audio, that's the best way I can describe it. This happens on the speaker on the phone, Bluetooth headphones, wired headset, everything. I managed to find a temporary work around in Poweramp which sometimes doesn't even work at all.
Hello all,
I have a very weird issue on my Mi4. There is no audio output from any app (Media player, Whats-app, Skype, Youtube, etc. )regardless if it's the phone's speaker or if there are headphones. There is simply no audio. But here is the crazy thing - the microphone works so i can send audio messages on whatsapp for example or record my voice but can't hear them back. Also the only audio output i get both from the loudspeaker and headset is from a standard phonecall. Anything else is simply mute. No sound at all.
I've tried scouring the internet for a problem like this but haven't found anything. I've tried a lot of things short of reflashing the rom. But if someone can come up with a better solution i'd be more than happy to try it.
Thanks
Update: I flashed another ROM and the problem persists.
