aptX Adaptive support - OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers

I haven't got my OnePlus 8T yet, so I wanna know if the OnePlus 8T supports aptX Adpative. I've checked on aptX site and it says 8T supports adaptive. I would be grateful if anyone confirms this.

My Anker SoundCore Liberty Air 2 Connects with aptX enabled, they sound great. You will see a little pop up with aptX when they connect. Did not have to modify anything in regards to bluetooth codecs, etc. in developer options.

Yes. It does support aptX and aptX HD.
But I wanna know if it supports aptX Adaptive. Can you please check the available codecs in developer options and share a screenshot of the same?

The audio codecs list, please? Just a tap on the "bluetooth audio codec". Sorry if I'm asking too much.

Yes, Liberty Air 2 supports only aptX, AAC and SBC. I got my pair a few days back. :angel:

Or, apparently it might be the phone. My device only supports the aptX codec that it's connected to.

That's quite a coincidence! Can't beat em for the price. Didn't see any references to the 8t, but it looks like the 8pro supports hd, but not adaptive. Guessing since the hardware is pretty similar, we will have the same.

8T is the first OP device to get aptX Adaptive. The other OP phones with aptX support have aptX and aptX HD only. They had put in adaptive and tws+ codecs in some builds (which obviously didn't work) only to remove them later. I have a 7 Pro and planning to upgrade to the 8T. Will probably do when 9 launches, should get good some discounts.

Desire i.c.w. SE HBH-DS200-> bad audio quality

I've been using this headset for a long time now. And I would like to use it with my desire as well. But the sound quality is so poor that it's like listening to a 56k mp3 file while actually I'm playing a 320kbps mp3.
It seems to me that somehow the bitrate on the bluetooth connection isn't high enough(very low actually).
Does anybody here know how I can change that easily? Or do you have any other solutions for this problem without buying a new headset.
btw, I use a Sennheiser HD215 headphone or the SE in-ear ear buds.
thanks in advance
I'm using the SE MW600 and I have no problems. Using stock rom with the update.

Good for you, but I would like to know how to adjust the bluetooth bitrate on Android.
sorry if I sound a bit grumpy but I've been searching for about 1,5 days straight and still found nothing.

No actually I never touched these settings because they were already enabled when I paired the devices. And I figured it would be quite crucial to have those settings enabled if I wanted to use those profiles.

Was hoping you would conclude from my post that there isn't a problem with the Desire regarding bitrates over bluetooth. Does the headset work on other devices without problems?

Ok, I know that for example the mw600 headset from SE works fine. So I think it's just the combination of devices, but that would be solved if I would be able to alter the bitrate.
I have used the headset with other devices without any problem, other than that I had to set the bitrate higher on a WM 6.5 device.

Lg V20 QuadDAC vs. Astell & Kern AK240 SS HiFi music player (($3400)) oops.

Finally, I went “high-end” and borrowed a pair of Sennheiser HD 800 (~$1,400) and an Astell & Kern AK240 SS HiFi music player (~3,000).

It does sound amazing. I just wish I could get the stock music player on my AT&T variant so I know I'm getting the full benefit of the DAC
I haven't really played with the DAC on the v20 yet but this is pretty amazing if true.
I loved the v10 DAC of course I am not using thousand dollar headphones I've got Bose QC 25s and Klipsch. Both show a fair difference with the v10 DAC.

Download a US996 ROM and take the APK out of their priv-app folders and put it in yours.
Now you have the v20 music player.
I've tried that and I always get a "Package appears to be Corrupt" error. Doesn't matter which ROM I take it from

I would love to see people stop suggesting this - the DAC fix app hasn't even been needed on the V10 for some time (since marshmallow), and does nothing for the V20. What the V20 needs, is a fix to allow apps other than the stock app to output higher than 44khz (more info here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70637384&postcount=44)

Cant just install a system only app.
It needs to be put into system/priv-app/
And permissions set to match the other apps in
That directory. It works on att. There's a post about it working for a att user who did it. Can also just put into your rom.zip
In the same spot and flash rom and it will install.
I just can't wait for DAC support on AOSP. Albinoman887 had said it was possible a few weeks back so I'm eagerly awaiting support! As much as I love the DAC, I just can't give up the 35 hours of use per charge I get on AOSP with Thrasher's RR.

I use usb audio player, it is $10 on play store this uses the dac if you toggle it on in quick settings,
This app plays dsd files.. If your flacs/MP3 are encoded at 48k or above, that is the resolution they are played back at.

USB audio player will play ALL files, however, it is transcoding them to 48khz PCM prior to outputting because it can only see the Qualcomm DAC not the ESS Sabre DAC even though it is toggled on.
@mlknez has answered questions extensively about the use of the DAC in the following thread:

I tried that app. It does indeed play DSD files, but like the rest of them, it only sees the Qualcomm DAC capabilities. It converts to PCM and decimates to 48khz. It will however see any EXTERNAL dac and play DSD files natively that way. Quickest way to check is to play a DSD file and if you get any notification sounds without the music going quiet, you are really hearing PCM. The SABRE DAC cannot do both DSD and PCM at the same time.

AAC Bluetooth mod

I'm a recent proud owner of the P20 Pro.
Fabulous device EXCEPT for the Bluetooth.
Reason being, I own a pair of Sony WF-1000X that uses the AAC codec. But it seems that the AAC codec is not supported on the phone and the audio-video is severely out of sync. I emailed Huawei asking about this and they said the phone only supports APTX, APTX-HD, LDAC and HWA. My impression is that Oreo supports AAC but it is not the case with the P20 pro. In development settings, even selecting the AAC settings do not stay.
My question is whether flashing magisk along with the audio modification library or viper4android help in getting the AAC codec installed?
It does support.

I know it's in the developer settings. But when you select it, it doesn't stay. It defaults back to SBC.

Hmm i have both the WF and WI 1000x as you can see the WI connects via LDAC but it shows sbc for the other. I do remember prior to the recent update it did used in say AAC but yeah looks like SBC :/
Yes there is a issue with stock ROMs that makes it stick to SBC for whatever reason. I flashed lineage today and now it's on AAC.
It seems their own freebuds does not support aptx as well. It defaults to SBC. is it a firmware issue?
how can we report this bug?

According to the Huawei specs on the P20 pro we can only expect the following codecs
aptX™, aptX™ HD, LDAC and HWA

They might provide AAC in a future update but I wouldn't hold your breath.

I believed they have disabled the other codecs in the freebuds. We will have to wait for them to provide a firmware update to see what happens.

If this HUAWEI Sport Headphones support aptx, i see no reason why the free buds do not.

This is my one annoyance with the P20 Pro, the free Bose headphones that was part of the pre-order also remains on SBC and doesn't switch to AAC. My budget £40 ones support APT-X and works with that but rather use the Bose for obvious reasons.
I reported to Huawei and got a case number, that was two months ago. Don't hold your breath. It really saddens and angers me when any phone manufacturer can't be bothered to resolve the issues when reported to them.

On 131 firmware, AAC works fine. I can switch between it and SBC and it stays on whichever is chosen. The audio also has a brief pause when it's changing codecs, so it's definitely working. (This is with Jabra Elite 65t's.) It defaults to AAC.
I am on C432B131. I tried to change to AAC but do not stick on. Whatever I select, it doesn't move to any other options other than SBC.

Same for me and on my JBL headset I have nothing but stuttering and cutouts. This is crap! And, it's impossible to change codec. It reverts to SBC no matter what.

P20 pro not YouTube signature device?

So, YouTube published this list
https://devicereport.youtube.com/
And while for example mate 10 pro is present there, Huawei's latest flagship p20 pro is not. Anybody knows what is the reason for that? It's a pity to pay more than 800€ for a device she not have the flagship experience.

Forgot that device existed. I wonder why then. Like i say they might add it to the list later on.
It might have to do with the fact that the screen is not HDR10 certified, like the Mate 10 Pro's. Though I find it kinda silly, since this one basically uses the same panel.

I also think that it has something to do with HDR. Now Netflix seems to work with HD and HDR, but YouTube I haven't seen with HDR yet
i think just the matter of time until it got certified.
a lot of devices (not just P20 pro) were left out if we about to see it that way.
