What theeee.... - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development

I have no idea why, but my in call sound went up as if I was in winmo, but I'm running android x.x

In call sound has been working since nearly the beginning. Also this thread title is very informative.

Its pretty obvious thats not at all what he means...
He is talking about call volume being quiet, and no volume control so, no it has not been working....
I thought that this newest version might have been a tiny bit louder myself, but cant verify that, could totally be in my imagination.
I agree the title could be changed, and im not entirely sure this thread was needed, at all...

i think he meant the sound went UP. which if we could figure out why, would be very helpful b.c as it is, the in call volume is very low.
What apps did u install OP?

My bad, however, if the statement had been phrased a little better, there would have been no need for interpretation.

That's definately a very interesting discovery, what version of android are you using? The latest Froyo build? and maybe it has something to do with what you were doing right before you booted out from wm. were you in a call or something? Recording?

I'm sorry for the stupid title, I was just so surprised. xD
Actually, I wasn't running anything when I booted into android, and the sound was very low on a phone call. But then someone called me and the volume of the phone call startled me.
I don't have any apps having to do with sound anymore because of me having to delete my data.img a few weeks ago so the sound boost has nothing to do with that.
And, I'm running 2.1 with the launcher pro beta, but I'm not sure if that really matters, seeing as I didn't mess with anything xD

By the way, the in-call volume is still loud

How to make the touch pro 2 louder?

Im currently using the new energy rom and I have used the audiopara. I just want to know if theres any other way to make the touch pro 2 louder because I feel that the TP2 can be louder

before I tried audiopara i used a program from warlock called increase volume 20% and it made it so loud that when i played music over the speakerphone it was too loud. I think that any louder would start too distort. I did find though that it increased the volume in the earpiece as well and for a while i had bad sound on phone calls. I uninstalled and installed audiopara but it didnt seem to do anything. I then reinstalled the increase volume 20% from warlock and the sound from the earpiece during phone calls seems fine. Try it and see what happens. I found the cab here on xda. Let me know your experience.
i see, I will test the warlock program out. Can you send me a link, or a forum that u found it in?

[DEV] 2-way call recording

The original thread was http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1422779&page=11 but they said you better go in dev section.
What's on the subject, yes, I fixed that for Nexus. The kernel (omap4) itself needn't be patched, that's great. The TI guys have done a _cool_ work ever, we should be grateful, indeed.
So all you have to do is to change the setup before the call. A sample is in http://avs234.net/temp/rvoix_lib/jni (live.cfg), _full_ sources included.
Please do mail me if you find a bug or anything!
Sincerely

Yes, experimental version works excellent for me. For some reason it didn't work with GLaDOS kernel, and with LeanKernel I was getting bad, low, strange(as if both laudspeaker and phone speaker were active during conv.) sound. Both kernels use Sound Control I thin, maybe that has something to do with it?
Faux's Hybrid 015 ultimate works like a charm. Since I am satisfied with it in genera,l I'll stick with it, for a while at least

What's this, Sound Control? If it does really as it's named, expecting some trouble yes as it may disable the proper settings.
Is there a tute for this?
it may be wise to add the resources from the other thread, if there really have to be two co-existent threads.
otherwise the influx of confused people, that somehow are not able to read the other thread will skyrocket.
thanks for the research on how to get the 2-way recording to the maguro.
The incompatibility on GLaDOS and other kernels could be due to the fact that most of the kernel devs remove unnecessary lines of code from stock kernel while developing ( in order to make them leaner and more efficient).
Although it might be supported by stock kernel, they could have accidentally removed the supporting lines of codes considering them a waste of space.

Yes, that's the point we need to clarify. On GLaDOS, they must be using some non-canonical (i.e. non-TI) version omap4 stuff.
I just dunno figure out why. Does someone have a link, or maybe I'd contact them, it's _interesting_ yes.

Any suggestions for eliminating the echo/distortion when using bluetooth on AOKP 31 (faux kernel I believe)? Someone mentioned that it might be recording from the phone mic and the bluetooth at the same time.

im running the popcorn kernel and the 2way recording seems to be working great.
The other persons voice comes in very clear. My voice sounds a little muffled but can still easily identify what im saying.
Im all open to ideas on how to improve this, but im quite happy with it thus far

Have you tried changing 'Record a call from' in Call Recorder preferences? You could also try playing with the live.cfg file avs333 mentioned a couple of times.

You will also have to buy the app, since it is not free. That is only the testing version which will work up to the first of May.
Thanks! I tried all the sources. The kernel patch source and alsa source both have echo on bluetooth (means I can hear my voice in my ear) and distortion reported by the other party (sounds like I'm in a tin can). I looked at the config and frankly it's greek to me.
I can assist with testing/debug but unfortunately that's about all I can do right now.
Curious... I just noticed that this beta callrecorder with alsa, when recording calls, activates the phones internal earpiece and mic, in addition to bluetooth, when bluetooth is active. So while I was making a test call, I could hear audio in my bluetooth, but when I leaned down near the phone I could hear audio coming from the phone's ear speaker as well. This might explain the echo in my ear along with distortion of my voice heard by the called party. I also covered up the bluetooth mic and leaned down to the phone and I could speak into the phone and hear the audio crystal clear in the bluetooth earpiece.
When I tell callrecorder not to record calls, the problem goes away.

[MOD] Audio Tweaks (Including Silent Camera)

Audio Modifications​
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for problems you may incur.
Please do some research if you are a first timer.
Only you can choose to use this software.
By downloading you agree to these terms.​​WHAT THIS TWEAK DOES:
This flash-able Volume-tweak.zip includes both mods simultaneously.
1) Silent Camera!
Volume.db
Replacing the existing volume.db file, the one I'm including disables all shutter sounds (which I may change to one of the shutter sounds), autofocus sounds, and other obnoxious camera tones. I understand that Samsung's idea is to make people aware that others may be photographing them, privacy stuff and all, but let's be honest shall we? Creepers are going to creep one way or another, and the autofocus 'beep' disturbs the baby and makes the dog bark! It also disables the boot sound. Best part of this tweak, it doesn't even touch the actual camera apk!
2) Volume Enhancing!
default_gain.conf
The next is a mod adapted from the developer Meltus. You may know him for other awesome volume modifications, but this one he made for the GSIII international. This should make the phone overall louder in all respects. I have, however, adjusted it from his original settings to keep the volume from reaching 'crackling' volumes and possibly damaging the speakers. This level sounds loud and still sounds good. :good:​

It's brilliantly simple. Most android phones come with these settings ingrained into the kernel, but Samsung has left them out. In theory, one could make these adjustments from on the phone itself, if you can open a .db file. Very simple, nothing that can break a phone. Just be careful not to blow out your speaker or your ears.
Sweet, Camera sounds really annoys me.

Sweet! :highfive:
As an addendum, this tweak is even neater because it disables the camera noises on a system level. I've seen a supposed higher-resolution camcording camera apk floating around that 'supposedly' disables camera noises as well... but it doesn't matter if it does because this tweak stays in effect. I don't believe this will affect other camera apps... but any Samsung camera variant should be muted.
Random you rock. Great to see you here. Your OG epic stuff was awesome. Thanks for the sound free camera!

For the sound boost (using the international tweak) you used the config file, correct?
That file does not, by default, exist on our US variants. I've personally included the tweak in my ROM over on T-Mobile. I've had a person or two say it made no difference. Me personally, I thought it was louder then hell (changed speaker boost from 0 to 40 and headphones from 0 to 25). If I put the volume on the lowest possible setting, its very audible still. With my headphones, I put it on three ticks and it was loud. Putting it up fully made me feel like my eardrums were going to pop.
What are your feelings on the tweaks? Do you think they actually work? Considering the config file doesn't exist by default, do you think they're actually pointed to in our system to be used?

I too noticed that the file isn't there, and was momentarily skeptical. But as the base coding is likely fundamentally identical, I thought I'd give it a chance. It's hard to fully test while at work... but I can hear my mp3 alarms quite clearly now. I had made a thread days ago regarding how my songs play fine in the player, but at half volume as alarms. The alarm was much much louder! And I generally have a fairly discerning ear.
That said, I now have to experiment the individual settings I think.

I agree the coding is likely identical. My skepticism comes more from the fact that the file doesn't exist by default. If it doesn't exist, and we add it, does anything in our system actually point to the config file in order for it to actually take effect?
Regardless, I'm pretty positive it works. I just was hoping someone had a better understanding of how it works and if it's actually pointed to.
When you play around with it, mind PMing me your results? I'm curious what you get.
For one, change the headphone settings and try with your headphones plugged in. I think they're extremely loud with the boost set to 25..

Certainly. If different values draw drastically different effects... I'll probably be making a "Louder but comfortable" version and an "Extremely loud, hearing damage may ensue" version. :good:

What do we know about the JB low speaker volume?

So, many of you are aware of how abysmally low the speaker volume is on the phone after getting the JB update. Unfortunately all the information on it is scattered among several different posts and threads, and I just wanted to get some clear answers and use this as an informational post for others who are annoyed by this bug.
What, if anything, do we know about why it happens? Is there a definitive fix system-wide, or do I have to use volume boosting apps? I run franco kernel, are there going to be any compatibility issues with proposed fixes? I like using mostly stock JB, can I get a ROM that makes minimal changes to the original while still fixing the volume issue?
After randomly doing a search for volume fix a few minutes ago I saw this. Did search for same exact reason (gnex 4.1.1). Awesome beats (one of multiple equalizer apps) is said to work. I'm gonna try it in the morning (so as not to have a very annoyed girlfriend at 4am). There's probably a good amount more info on this. As for the last part..pure-ish 4.1.1 aosp Roms are very pleasing...like buttah lol.

If you have Franco.kernel, download his app from the play store (it costs a few bucks, not super expensive). In the settings tab there is an option to increase the max sound volume. I recommend setting it to 2; if you set it to 3 sometimes the sound will cut out on max volume.

I have no idea if this is correct information or not, so take it with a grain of salt, but I read earlier today in the Franco thread that that setting only affects the headphone volume, not speaker volume. I can tell you it does nothing for the volume on my GNex (speaker). I love this phone dearly, but I absolutely hate the low volume. I never have music on my phone, but I use the speaker phone multiple times a day while at work in my truck. I've yet to find a fix that actually increases the speaker volume on calls, and I've tried just about every ROM and tweak around. I'm beginning to think the people that swear some of these fixes work are just having a placebo effect.

The dev says it doesn't work with the system stuff (like ringtones, notifications, etc.) Works for music volume on JB though. Check it out, seems like a lot of people with various JB roms are using it successfully. It's kinda hard to be sure it's not working without trying it. I assure you..again..I'm using it..it works for music. Re-read what the dev said.

I try Volume+ on my jelly bean nexus. Only the music volume work, not the system volume (like ringtones). I missed so many call because the ringtone vol is not loud enough even at max vol level. I know I can install ROM, but I prefer stock right now.
There are no mods available as of now for boosting ringtone or notification volume for galaxy nexus on jelly bean. All the mods like awesomebeats/volume+ and also the default musicfx only work on music volume.
I have tried all the mods on all JB Roms which claim to boost ringtone volume, but none really work. The effect if at all is very marginal.
The problem lies with the way google has implemented Jelly Bean. The solution has probably go to come from them until one of the geeks here manage a workaround.
Lets see if volume+ developer manages to release a working version.
I am currently using volume+ on AOKP milestone6(ICS 4.0.4) to great effect.
There is no point in upgrading to JB unless the ringtone volume level problem is addressed. What is the use in owning a phone which you cannot here ringing.
Really need a stock solution. The reason I have the Galaxy Nexus is to avoid flashing madness with the stock experience. Is it a tracked bug?

There are no mods available as of now for boosting ringtone or notification volume for galaxy nexus on jelly bean. All the mods like awesomebeats/volume+ and also the default musicfx only work on music volume.
I have tried all the mods on all JB Roms which claim to boost ringtone volume, but none really work. The effect if at all is very marginal.
The problem lies with the way google has implemented Jelly Bean. The solution has probably go to come from them until one of the geeks here manage a workaround.
Lets see if volume+ developer manages to release a working version.
I am currently using volume+ on AOKP milestone6(ICS 4.0.4) to great effect.
There is no point in upgrading to JB unless the ringtone volume level problem is addressed. What is the use in owning a phone which you cannot here ringing.

Nexus louder v3 worked for me. My sister has the same phone and mine is very noticeably louder.
i guess if i want to boost the volume im going to need to root? my GS2 was louder :crying:

Increase bitpool?

It looks like someone did it with Samsung source last year.... First time I've heard of it in a tw rom....
Anyone else dumbfounded by this being set so low? This was the reason I started running aosp roms on my EVO 4G.... And kept with them on my Galaxy SII.
Why isn't this more important to people? Music sounds like poop over bluetooth.
Anyone know of a fix for the Note 3?

someone actually did this with the Samsung Captivate Glide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880298
I would LOVE this to be fixed once and for all by Samsung, but....doesn't look like that will EVER happen....
Basically highs sound too compressed and scratchy almost...am I the only one who's almost quit listening to music from my phone in the car because of this?
Thanks
quick fix that (at least) make BT music sounds better...
edit build.prop and add this value:
lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false

I missed this post, but thank you!!!
I just made the changes, but haven't been out to my car yet. Hoping for the best, but honestly, not expecting much. What do these changes do? I'm gonna google it, but....I'm asking here too.
You're welcome ^^
From what I googled: it reroute your audio stream through main CPU instead of special DFX introduced in JB+, the Low Power Audio decoder -lpa.decode- (thus increase in batt usage like playing music in pre-JB Android)...
I would be glad if it works for you as well ad solve your problem ^^

I was super excited, but ...it didn't work. Highs still sound like poop. It's hard to tell sometimes, but, when my random playlist hit In The Mall by Weezer, it became very obvious that it still sucked.
the cymbols in that song are pretty isolated, and that's where you can hear the static compression. just sounds terrible to me...and i'm far from an audiophile...
Thanks for responding though!
Ah yes, its still suck but better than using LPA Decoder...
Still have to find a way to make it at least listenable....
I'm an audiophile... And this problem made me crazy...
Some says that its intentional by Sammy, coz Sammy use APT-X protocol for streaming music (maybe its their marketing strategy to make ppl switch to Samsung Level headset/APT-X compatible headset?).

I didn't mention it in this thread, but I think last time I tried an AOSP rom for this phone, I still wasn't very impressed with the sound quality. Have you tried? I think I tried a PAC-Man rom a few months ago....

Umm, nope... I never tried AOSP/AOKP anymore since my Note 2....
And I give up using bluetooth for music, can't bear the sound quality...
I tried Viper but it stuttering too much, and I don't like equalized/tuned sound... I listen to music as-is....
I'll try to get cheap APT-X bluetooth headset (not $500++ headset as I'm cheap )
