What do people expect out of Dolby Atmos? I'm kinda curious. I'm an audio technician and I do get the benefits for mixing or cinemas but on a phone it seems to me like big marketing to sell more stuff.

That may be but Dolby Atmos is an object based playback system. Instead of having a fixed 5.1 setup Dolby Atmos positions a virtual object in a room and calculates the loudness for each speaker. The idea is that you could add more speakers without changing the whole cinema sound mix. It would simply recalculate everything in real-time.
That's why I don't understand what Dolby Atmos should do in a phone. If you output it to a surround setup yeah I guess that'll do but for headphones or the integrated speaker or even stereo I doesn't make a difference.
Only other adjustments within the software could make a difference. So Dolby Atmos alone isn't particularly useful. Other settings from HTC or the Beats can. To be clear: I do believe that the sound was great but I don't thing Dolby Atmos itself played a role in it

To top it off, Atmos is a proprietary techology licensed from Dolby, so what OP is asking is straightforward piracy/theft.

I've seen some threads in the International HOX forum, as well as a new ROM in our forum that support Dolby Mobile.
I'm on Cleanrom, and I don't really want to switch ROMS for an audio effect. I'm definitely curious though.
How can I flash Dolby Mobile onto my HOX without any ROM changes?
What about ALSA? I know MixGet is on the play store, but does it work for anyone?

I mean heres the apk. IMO its just another gimmick like beats. Its just a different equalizer. Seriously just use poweramp or playerpro or even the equalizer app from the play store and set your settings according to your preference. Surround sound is not possible through a 3.5mm stereo jack. At best, you will get virtual surround sound which distorts or incorrectly balances sounds.
Thats my opinion. But you are better off sending a PM to XsMagical and ask him about it since he ported the ROM that contains it.
Yup that I know, a gimmick it is for sure. I wish the HOX had a wolfson dac, or a voodoo-like hack of some sort. Driving larger headphones with higher impendence doesn't quite work well here.
Right now I'm using Google music with DSP manager. I'll occasionally leave beats on while at the gym for the fun of it, usually I'm only using an equalizer though. I just wanted to hear what Dolby could do, never tried it before in my life lol.

Hi,
Some people have ported Beats Audio, xLoud and Mobile Bravia Engine to several of the android phones.
Is it possible to port it to Atrix 2?
Will it really increase the performance?
There are several methods available online..
(A simple google search will show the results... I am not able to post the links as i am a new member)
Have anyone tried it??
Any senior members willing to try this?
-----------------------
P.S:- This is not a Q&A post.. This is meant for discussion of a general topic.

I have installed Beats Audio and it works fine, yes it does increase audio performance. To install Beats Audio you need to root your phone.
I haven't tried xloud and bravia, so I cant comment on that.

For the love of everything even remotely good in life, do not do this. Beats audio and really any other mod are TERRIBLE and degrade audio quality. if what you want is something that drives the base hard and washes everything else out, I suppose it does a damn good job, but it kills audio quality. If you want good performance, buy some decent headphones, nothing less than $100 or so, but you don't need anything crazy, and get a good player with an equalizer like poweramp.

I have never used it, but obviously none of these can change the hardware of the phone, they are basically fancy equalizers. All equipment is different, and that is the main point to equalizers (not to adjust sound for the type of music, the recordings are mixed how the producer intended, but to adjust for different listening hardware. for example, small headphones often need more bass volume to sound good, while large speakers might lack on the low to mid end.) That said, some of these enhancements might improve quality on the device they are intended for, as they can change what is needed to get good sound there.
You can try any of these, and see what you think, as everyone has different tastes, but to get the best quality sound, I would still recommend high quality listening gear, and a good equalizer you can play with to get the sound you want.
I mostly listen with ER6i in ear headphones, which are noise isolating (not electronic canceling), so they block a lot of sound, and have really good quality for in ear headphones. They don't make the same ones any more, but they were around $100, so I'm sure there is a replacement model. I use Poweramp as my player, and it has a 10 band EQ that I tweaked for my headphones to sound best.
Well i have installed all of these and my audio is better..performance is better. From my point of view..it doesnt hurt anything.

Shame on you! Difference of opinion I guess, but my guess is it is still the same as the tv store effect. the brighter the better seeming at fist glance.
Anyways, always feel free to try things out, but make sure you know how to remove them. I made a beats remover that is in the general section somewhere, but they might have updated since then, so no guaranty that it will work.
Beats audio thing was just a screw up. It made the audio quality bad for me. I tried Acid audio engine which worked fine. It did boost the audio quality for me a lil bit !
bravia engine link plz
plz past the bravia engine link
becoz which i found is having some user specific issues

Hello guys I am just coming from s3 lte. And I got a question because on my s3 I used to use boeffla kernel + cm11. Ofcourse I am gona use xm11 on my nexus 5 too but here comes the question. Do you know any kernels for nexus 5 which are similar to the boeffla one? ( boeffla sound has the best equalizer I have ever been using on my phone) Big thanks.

You can only use kernels that are CAF based like Elemental, Chaos and maybe others. Don't flash AOSP kernels with CM11. For sound control you may look at Viper4android or something like that. Check if it is compatible with CM11.

I might have different opinion on Viper4Android. IMO, Nexus 5 soundchip is already awesome as it is and doesn't need V4A. I think what you need is a proper music player (i use poweramp myself which is very good for me) as the play music has crappy equalizer (shame though, a very nice interface)
IMHO, V4A sound effects are gimmicks and doesn't really give you the true performance of your soundchip. Don't get me wrong, i've tried V4A before because i think the Play Music sound quality is ugly, but then i didn't know that the phone itself is really great at producing high bitrate music (great also on flac). After i tried poweramp, i realized that V4A is just gimmick sound effect, not the true sound.
Again, every person's ear is different, you might have different opinion on V4A.
Give it a try and you'll know it yourself.

Actually there are effects in v4a but the main thing is being able to increase the sampling rate. I'm sorry to say but Poweramp with v4a is better than poweramp without v4a.
Maybe you misunderstand v4a.

Try it.
The DAC we have is good, but it's not as clear as it could be.
I think you'll struggle to match the Wolfson DAC in recent Galaxy phones, especially when used with the DAC Direct option in Boeffla or VooDoo Sound.
Coming from a Note 2, sound quality is the first thing I noticed the N5 was lacking in. Not by much, but still noticeable. Also, if you use decent Bluetooth headphones then you may notice even worse quality as the N5 doesn't support the APT-X codec (obviously the headphones need to support this too).
I'm a long-time PowerAmp user but have only just got my N5 set-up with a custom ROM so still need to test out Viper.
why does crapy network sprint get Harman kardon settings on their m8?
can we get that too is that hardware or software integration?
Just wondering what is it?

Its an equalizer setting to (theoretically) make the speakers sound much better. Harmon Kardon is a high end speaker maker. It essentially does the same thing as the Beats did last year.

We can get it if we change the false setting in the default xml in the system to true BUT it don't think it will effect sound due to not having the libs for it.

They might have been, at one time (debatable). But, HK does nothing but buy other companies any more. They don't develop much of anything, themselves. The bulk of their branding is for high profit margin products like car audio and licensing of mass-consumer level audio tech.
You'd do better with Viper. Almost anything is better than the pre-installed audio enhancements, whether it's Beats, Harman, or whatever.
ive also read it may just be a software thing and not difference in hardware.
do you think viper is significantly better than the boomsound already on the phone?

Viper4Android is a great mod don't get me wrong, a lot went into making this! Personally though after playing with it for literally hours in my car streaming music via BT, i couldn't get 1 setting that i felt was better than stock. Same with "Boomsound" for the external speakers. I'm completely happy with the stock "equalizer" personally. Don't see what this HK equalizer will bring to the table, i bet nothing special. I think HTC actually put a lot of time and energy into their equalizer knowing that Beats left them and this is their next big device since Beats left so they had to make it just as good if not better. I feel they've made it just as good if not better on this device :highfive:

Its definitely just an equalizer setting. They wouldn't have developed entirely different speakers for a carrier variant. Its the same thing as the Beats integration last year, which has now been replaced by BoomSound.

Yo. I'm not gonna beat around the bush. Here's a sound mod I created when I was bored. It's based off a project I stopped long ago. Just give it a hear. Thanks.
Features:
DTS
Note 7 SoundAlive libraries
Google Pixel XL effects
HTC 10 effects
Huawei dynamic bass boost
Experimental Jack Professional Audio drivers
*Does not conflict with SoundAlive.*
