FAQ:
How to get the best sound quality ?
The best quality for headphone is obtained:
1/ by setting the Android digital sound level to the maximum or close to it
2/ then using the new analog level to choose the sound pressure that suits your needs
This way, you will get the lowest hiss, best signal-to-noise ratio and lowest distortion.
Original post:
Hello
My first bounty, lagfix is a success so here I am again!
Galaxy S line phone have a few sound issues and as a sound junkie I'm working on improving things with Voodoo sound
Here is what I'm implementing for the first Voodoo sound release:
Headphone amp analog gain:
Reduce the hiss or give you a much louder output. Configurable from very low levels to very high.
Already tested with sensitive in-ear very prone to hiss and brilliantly confirmed with Sennheiser high-end 300 Ohms headphones.
Hardware Parametric equalizer:
Change the frequency response to correct your headphone deficiencies or to adjust the sound how you like. Use 0 battery and work on every sound source. 100% configurable
Hardware 3D effect:
Finally, a good specialization effect. Can improve sound-stage if used wisely. Configurable.
Here is the link to Voodoo sound source repository if you are curious about it.

Those are new features, exciting capabilities your phone didn't had before
Galaxy S phone is at the top of the line about sound capabilities because it uses a high end Wolfson WM8994 sound codec.
That's why it's worth it.
I receive already a lot of a few feature asking to fix things, and it's not what i intended to do.
If you have a feature request or suggestion please
explain it in this topic
tell how much you can support the dev effort.
I can be crazy features request. Who knows, sometimes crazy stuff can be done
Then I'll do my best to work on it and you'll vote with donations if you are satisfied with it.

Your turn!
Good luck curio!! Thanks again for the wonderful work on #project-voodoo.
You already know my feature request - my Sennheisser iphone headset working again on the Galaxy S would be awesome. From what I read, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=713350 the ground and mic is reversed on iphone headsets which keep them from working on Galaxy S - if they can be remapped internally, I'd presume it works.
Will be sure to donate some $ if that happens or if in fact i like the difference i hear on what comes off these changes. Good luck again!
PS: $15 for the headphone fix AND an indeterminate $ for how much I like the other changes
Possible ideas:
1) Change headphone-out to line-out
2) use headphone jack for spdif to go 3.5mm mono out on phone to coax in on external dac -> send up to 24/96 to external dac
$25 per item
good work
A louder speakerphone and earphone.
I can't wait for beta 5. It will blow us away!!!
how about an Equalizer in the ringtone?? So I can choose "Music Clarity" profile for my ringtone, I don't need heavy bass for my ringtone
Any app can do it (Eg. rings extended app which allows you to select ur own mp3 as ringtone)
Heyho! There's something that has been bugging me all the time. It's the sensitivity of the built in microphone. For example if you record videos in a very loud environment (like concerts for example) you only hear noise on playback. Is there any way for auto adjustment of the mic sensitivity, or at least a way to do this manually?
I would donate 15$ for some fix for this issue

One sound related issue that always annoyed me is that the sound seems to work in the old OSS way, that is only one application may give sound at one. For instance, if you listen to music and you get a SMS, then the music is paused while the notification is playing.
is it possible to make them play simultaniously?

I had to delete a lot of videos which I made on a concert because the sound was completely distorted. The mic is definitely too sensitive.

One thing really pissed me is that whenever I use 3G for exp: surf web or update apps in market.
My westone always gives me a static noise similar to when you have a phone call near the speaker. But if I switch to a cheap earphone this go away. I want to use my fav ear phone on my sgs . 15 bucks for a fix. Thank you
And by the way my sgs sound a bit too loud not too soft like others :-?

€15.00 (already promised another €10.00 from before developments of Voodoo Sound.. so +€5.00 for this feature)
How about sorting out A2DP? Audio streaming is absolutely useless on this (and from what I can tell quite a few Android devices).
I'd be more than willing to donate £15

£5 gbp bounty from me
I really don't mind the current loudness of the volume. I think the limits are there for a reason, but of course I would support any work done to improve the quality of the audio
Would it be possible to transfer calls to the media/ringer/notifications output so that the headphones can hear it?
God curio's at it again. But seriously, we can't thank you enough for voodoo lag fix and I now can't wait for voodoo sound! The Galaxy S' audio just isn't up to the standards it should be..
make it so the audio of a phone call comes through the headphones. when i plug my phone into my car via 3.5mm jack for listening to music it's fine. but when a call comes through, the call plays through the handset (and not on speaker phone either).

Hi Curio,
I think you have done a phenominal job on the Lagfix Ext4 Data Conversion, but I'm not convinced that it's completely optimized or "fixed".
Heres why:
I use Touchdown with exchange among a few other Database stuff, and i still see a lot of lag on this device when using these apps.
I'm not sure what folder is used for Touchdown(probably Database) but there is still much lag there. If some apps use folders other than the Data Folder we still have some lag... Do you agree?
When you converted to EXT4 it was only the Data Folder correct? Is this the only directory able to be converted? Dont our apps use other directoryies?
When I used the ext2 fix(Briefly) I believe there were three or four folder converted. Doing this fixed the lag completely on my phone, but I agree with you that it's not the safest filesystem after my research.
So, my question, Why cant you do the same EXT4 Conversion for several other folders that are important to IO "Read" and "Writes"
Is there some stability or issues with doing this?
By the way,
If you could fix the sound issues on my phone, I'd have 50 dollars for you the same day.
Take care and Great Work!
STOP THAT BLOODY "HEY I'VE CHARGED" NOTIFICATION AT 3AM !!!!!
as you may have noticed this winds me up a bit, having elderly folks putting the phone to silent at night is not an option

Hey!
My Nexus's Earphone hole is going broken and I don't want so sent my Nexus to the phone service and to pay 80€ of repairing it..
So I bought Nokia BH-111 Stereo Bluetooth headset! Earphones are good but when I plug them to its BT device and listening music from it via Nexus the sound quality is "HORRIBLE", I hear clicking/crackling noise.
I installed DSP manager and its files which is needed and then I tested it but still horrible sound quality..
I'm using my modified OTA ROM (JB 4.2.1), without any "Audio Mods".
I have no idea how to fix the quality or to increase the quality, so if anybody can help then Thanks!

I had the same issue when streaming bluetooth to my subaru's car stereo.
The fix for me was to decrease the "bluetooth" volume on the phone itself when connected to a bluetooth device. It's as if the device's onboard audio board distorts at full blast/volume. I step it down 2-3 notches and it sounds a lot better. Then, just increase the volume on the stereo or headset to compensate.

Doesn't make quality better on my Nexus when decreasing volume...:/
I also have old Nokia Bluetooth headphones which are broken and the sound is same with them.
Would be nice if there is any fix for A2DP quality on Nexus or any audio mods which makes sound quality better.
The older (pre-4.2) bluetooth stack had issues with more than one device connected (aka stereo and headset). Not sure if the new one in 4.2 is any better in that regard.
Edit: deleted..
Also I think I fixed it somehow with some CM's BT files!

Well, It is fixed in 4.2.2 release! So I recommend you to use JB 4.2.2
I replaced files in /system/etc/bluetooth/ and audio_policy file in /system/etc/ audio_ploicy.conf looked to be same but just in case I replaced it..
The Sound quality via BT headset isn't still perfect but it's better now.

Not fixed for me.
What exactly has changed? Is it the radio, kernel, bluetooth stack, what?
Where did you get the files you used from? One of the first things I did after flashing the 4.2.2 ROM, kernel, and binaries, was to flash the latest radio (for Verizon it's 4.1.1) and the noise was there, in all its glory. I put the 4.0.4 radio back on, which is better... but it has its own problems. 4.1.1 is a much better radio, but has the BT racket in calls.

The Bluetooth audio streaming is fixed, about other things I don't know because I use BT Headset at school for listening music and calling and everything works well..
On JB 4.2.1 I used files from CyanogenMod's latest nightly, CyanogenMod devs has fixed A2DP on CM ROMs..

I'm now on a 4.2.2 Rom (Carbon). I still had a few problems even on this, but changed some settings I've used for awhile in Trickster Mod. I always enabled High Performance Sound, but disabled this feature. Sound quality is was better, and the playback controls on my BT headphones work again (first time since 4.1). Also had some crackling and playback stop affecting google play music which have gone away as a result.

Special PowerAmp PureX+ Presets:
PureXPsychoRealism+ - Just like PureXPsychoRealism; this preset enhances bass effectively (Increased 30Hz - 60Hz bands), enhances treble by increasing 16k band and 8k whilst keeping clarity by reducing 500k, 1k and 2k bands. This is a more precise version of normal PureXPsychoRealism.
General Audio Effects (Equalizer presets only in Sound Enhancements):
PureXPsychoRealism - Experience realistic audio, rich deep bass and realistic acoustics. Best acoustics and bass you will ever hear. (This is best used on Headphones)
PureXHiClarity - Listen to Clarity like never before, from Ultra high frequencies to crystal clear vocals. This is clarity at it's best. (This is best used on earphones)
PureXBeats - Optimized and fine-tuned for Beats by Dr Dre headphones/earphones. Get rid of that terrible 'muddy' sound beats headphones/earphones produce by too much bass, hear more clarity in your Beats headphones/earphones.
Common Effects:
PureXDynamics is a more effective way to minimize volume differences (Like the Dynamic Normalizer) Acts like a audio limiter, it's a more safer way to listen to audio as it softens the other instrument volumes down so that every instrument can still be heard.
Speaker Effects (System-Wide when enabled):
PureXIntenseBLAST - Greatly enhance audio volume of internal speaker (Modded version of xLOUD)
PureXHiFi - Greatly enhance audio quality of internal speaker (Modded version of ClearPhase)
Don't be fooled by your Settings saying ClearPhase and xLOUD in sound settings still, they are just the names, they will still produce the exact same effect as the two above but it is renamed in Walkman Sound Enhancements however
If you are using the phone in a different language OTHER than English, please note that User-Defined 1 is PureXPsychoRealism, User-Defined 2 is PureXHiClarity and Custom is PureXBeats
These effects can all be enabled through Sony Walkman Sound Enhancements.

NOTE: DO NOT INCLUDE ANY OF THE MODS IN THIS THREAD IN ROMS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! I WILL ONLY ASK ONCE, IT IS MANDATORY THAT YOU PM ME OR NOTIFY ME BEFORE YOU PUT THIS IN YOUR ROM OR OPEN ANOTHER THREAD SOMEWHERE ELSE ON XDA,LAST WARNING. ANY THREADS OPENED WITHOUT LETTING ME KNOW WILL BE REPORTED IMMEDIATELY!
NOTE 2: It SHOULD work with all Xperia Firmware-Based ROMs, not so sure about AOSP roms as I have a lock bootloader and therefore I cannot try them out. Please do not constantly ask if it will work for a specific rom, Try before you ask.
NOTE 3: PLEASE! FOR YOUR OWN SAFTEY, MAKE A NAND BACKUP FOR YOUR ROM! I WILL NOT BE GIVING INSTRUCTIONS TO UNINSTALL.
NOTE 4: This mod will work for Locked/Unlocked Bootloaders as long as you have a custom recovery.
NOTE 5: The speaker's audio quality becomes worse as you increase volume, this is because our speaker cannot output good audio quality at loud volumes.It is impossible to keep audio quality and loud volume because of out hardware. The HTC One has a dedicated Amp inside it's chipset which amplifies audio better with more sound, that is why new HTC phones can have very loud speaker volume with good speaker audio quality.
NOTE 6: Sometimes, if you play music, it could take a few seconds to let Sound Enhancements load your settings (This is normal)
NOTE 7: If you are on another device and is using Xperia Z version (The updated version of this soundmod and not PureXAudioLITE) Don't be mistaken that all features work, because it just won't. My audio mod is specifically made for the APQ8064 chipset and WCD9310 DAC (MPQ8064 audio too) the features will not ALL work because every device has different hardware/software, even if it install fine, not all features will work. Don't get confused.
NOTE 8: I advise everyone to go onto XZDualRecovery as it's the only recovery (As I am aware of) which has native init.d installed directly in it's ramdisk just so you can use the init.d scripts in my mod. (Only applies to locked bootloaders)
NOTE 9: If you are having audio skipping issues, make sure that you exclude: Walkman (If you have 2 Walkman apps, select the second one), PureXAudio Engine and MusicFX in STAMINA Mode so that the phone will not try and make it inactive. If you have Skipping in any other music player, add that in the exclude list of Stamina mode.
NOTE 10: Hearing impairment is caused by volumes higher then 85dB as stated in Wiki "If one is exposed to loud sound (including music) at high levels or for extended durations (85 dB A or greater), then hearing impairment will occur." If you feel uncomfortable when hearing music, I strongly advise you to either turn down the volume or have a rest.

Also, upload the stock sound file in CWM flashable format as well so if anyone wants to go back to stock...I know backup restore from TB should haven been done or backuy CWM or TWRP but I did not do any of those ... CWM & TWRP will reboot after 40 seconds so no use in making a backup for now, plus since my 64GB card is on its way I have not made any TB backups now.. So having a stock sound .zip file will help very much to me and to some other users also...
Hopefully these issues will be solved in the next update..cant wait...
As with all these mods there should be a health warning in the OP that the only way to go back to stock is via a nandroid backup or a clean reinstall of the rom. These sound mods change so many files its next to impossible to manually go back yourself with out a backup.
I know this does not help you, but I hope others will read this and take the backup.

Yeah hope so .. anyways all i can do now is wait for the new version which has increase in sound from internal + in-call volume speaker (like it was there for Xperia Z) and also have the sound enhancements settings working

i need to bring Zero's presets into Walkman somehow
but for that we gotta be deodexing the whole ROM

Just installed the V2
Used TWRP to flash first
- After booting, in settings the sound effects are still not responding, meaning I when click on sound effects nothing happens
- In walkman, in settings the sound effects are also not responding
- In google music player, when I click on settings and goto sound effects it opens, but when I goto EQ settings and select any new EQ the EQ sliders does not move at all they all remain at Zero which is right in the middle.
Used CWM to flash and same thing as above for settings, walkman, google music player.
So V2 is not working for me either...

TIP #1:
If your G2 stock earbuds fit your ear canals really well, see if they fit on your other earphones!
I tried these G2 ear buds on my ie-80 in-ears and i can honestly say they give the best seal i have had in 7 months since getting these earphones!
The G2 buds have an abnormally large hole diameter which allows alot more high/mid range through than my previous sets. Stoked!
TIP #2:
Clean your in-ear headphones regularly, scotch tape works great!
Pull off the earbuds and carefully dab (do not rub) each the earphone housing speaker grills repeatedly with sticky part of the scotch tape to remove any wax/dirt buildup.
Repeat this once every 1 - 2 weeks to ensure longer life/good sound of your earphones.
If possible store your in-ears in a clean container/sealed carry pouch so they do not collect dust/lint/dirt from your pockets.
Thanks for the mod. Tested a FLAC song with stock music player on speakers. Max volume and no distortion.

Great to hear!
On a note of personal note, i had viper4android installed on my LG G2 but with these modifications,
i ended up uninstalling it as i was primarily using it for volume boost purposes as opposed to signal shaping/eq-ing.
I also found that viper4android would work randomly with some files but not others.
IMO Volume boosting should work consistently at all times, across the board.
From the purist/consistency train of thought this volume mod will give you consistent volume boosting and more power to your headphones (fuller sound) without altering/degrading the already superb audio signal, or adding digital noise.
That being said, viper4android is a great app for shaping the sound signature, which is what it is primarily designed for.
For me, "the closer to the original source, the better"
Much improved sound. Thanks.

This is an external Speaker and Headphone Volume level modification.
It is what I feel "should have been" the stock "happy medium" audio levels for the LG G2.
The DAC audio quality coming from the LG G2 is excellent.
This modification brings the listening sweet spot down to 50% volume level instead of the 80-90% volume range at stock.
Stock levels did not push test headphones as well.
Benefits:
- Removes the need for 3rd party audio VOLUME BOOST apps
- Does not alter DAC raw audio signal quality
- Provides optimized signal drive for higher ohm headphones
- Improved audio fullness
- Improved low end at optimal listening levels

Really.
Well not giving thanks where its due, is even more lame, not to mention it is Thanksgiving today after all..
1. For what its worth i stumbled on this file in my G2 looking through sys etc files as a result of modding my note 2 last year in similar fashion, when i was looking for volume boosting without 3rd party apps at the time.
2. I have spent time testing to ensure i get the levels right on a fair range of equipment, and i feel others should be entitled the chance to benefit from this as well.
3. That thread that i ended up finding (and linking out of courtesy regardless) is pretty convoluted and a bit of a mess, labelled ATT (i am on Bell and this is a universal fix, not just ATT), and realistically only addresses speaker volume.
4. I have provided a working tested version of the file that G2 owners can use if they choose; not everyone is comfortable/has time/patience to edit/test settings in order to enjoy the untapped potential their phones have to offer.
5. I was in actuality not soliciting (seeing as we are NOT selling anything here), but making a factual observation through my thanks post, and the same applies to all positive dev/mod work.
You're welcome.
thanks, audio seems improved and much higher.
maybe a bit too high.. I can't set volume up to middle.

The version i posted on this thread works fine with no issues.
I have tested the scenarios detailed in your post using 2 different cell phone lines, calling my g2 from another cell, and vice versa.
Both with speaker mode enabled/disabled, and with/without headphones.
Mic works fine in both cases for me, no issues here on my Bell version G2.
I do not currently have a pair of headphones with microphone built in to test that format though, if anyone else can test that would be great.
Please clarify carrier, whether phone is stock or not,whether has he done any file edits after the fact, etc.

LG G2 D802 (International vers.) rooted
Hello Everyone, today i will share my last mod to enable 192kHz on audio outputs of lenovo vibe k5 plus (Tested on A6020l36 and RR 5.8.0 + ExtremeKernel), this mod will change some values of mixer_paths_qrd_skuh file to make sound more clear and dont be loude than the lenovo's specifications for stock rom. Sample rate is the number of times of a digital signal read some point of audio wave, for example if we have a sample rate of 48kHz we can reproduce signals of 20 to 24kHz without looses, but this limits too much who wanna listen .flac files with better samplerate, the phone will reproduce without problems the sound, but we will loose some things of audio. This mod will enable 192kHz for default, removing old 48kHz samplerate.
Example of sinusoidal wave modulation:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
with more samples we can have more fidelity on audio reproduction because the processor will take more "dots" of the ported wave.
OFF: Vibe k5 l36 variant have an problem with audio (white noise) when boot device, this is a known problem, but this mod don't solve this problem, if someone have idea of what can be this problem, please say if possible, when boot white noise starts, when play any song, the white noise stops forever, return on next reboot. I already try to remove low_latency audio but stay the same.

Audio_Policy may work in any rom
192kHz for all codecs, starting from 96kHz High Frequency samples
Not really. Most audio files, even the CD flac ones are mostly encoded at 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. By setting the sound output to 192 kHz, it will upscale all music to 192 kHz, resulting in something like a pixelated zoomed image, but for audio. Best playback is obtained when the audio output sample rate matches the file sample rate.
Some files are encoded at 192 kHz, but the audiophiles who'd bother to download such files wouldn't buy this device in the first place.
On an unrelated note, the kernel you posted in another thread works with RR 5.8.0(Android 7.1) ??

I have a lot of flac files encoded with 192khz, output with 44,1khz, 48khz, 96khz and 192khz makes a lot of difference in this case, also, i can listen the difference too in mp3 sounds at 320kbps, some is encoded at 96khz
And the kernel, for now, don't work in rr 5.8.0

mp3 files don't go above 48 kHz. The 96k mp3 you have is probably a regular 48k mp3 created from a 24 bit/96k audio master

White noise
I have an idea how to solve the white noise problem on booting. Maybe need to play some audio such "bootaudio.ogg" while device booting? I think it solve the problem. Can you try this?

Maybe playing a song just calibrate the sound drivers hardware. And I guess this problem was made by GPU or CPU electrical noise being interpreted by the sound hardware until the calibration was taken. To me looks like pretty the same with some noises produced in desktops connected to very sensible sound hardwares.

Hi man!
trying to figure out this situation, thinked a lot about what cause this behaviour, but with the limited power of my mind I come with just this and no more! Probably this is being caused by more than one frequency running through the coil of hardware sound, these frequencies produced by other hardware components makes the coil to vibrates non harmonically, and this produces that noises! hope that you understand what I am trying to say at this point! So, thinked as a possible solution put the kernel to bootup the system with a fixed combination of frequencies that non produces these non harmornic waves in the coil of the hardware sound!
sorry for my crappy english!
Edit: after boot, without playing any sound, setting max gpu clock at 100mhz reduces a lot the loudness of that noises

Hi, most interesting mod.
I am after setting a variable sample rate mode, this is, no resampling, like PulseAudio in Linux or Windows. I have added 44100 and 48000 to all devices in audio profiles configuration, but the internal sample rate value is still 48000Khz.
I have a Xiaomi Mi 8, with dual oscillator audio chipset. When not mixing audio sources, I'd like the sample rate be adaptive. Is this possible?
OMG, this make my cheap earbuds sounds like original, i m using it with dolby atmos surrounded it's magnificent, the quality and the bass re v clear and better than ever
many thanks for making this mod!!
hey, i installed the mod on oreo aex v5.7, and every time i open any game a v loud beebing noise happens it stops when i close the game, i've reinstalled all the games, same thing , i ve tried to play games with headphone connected, the beebing sound jumped from the speakers to the headphone
playing videos and audios in any other app ,it works fine, what can i do to fix this, does wiping cache dalvik helps ? any ideas ?
Hey there Mix users. Dont know if you aware of this but I've been using this great all in one sound mod for a long time(on s6 edge plus), recently ''flashed'' on my Mix which runs latest Epic Rom and voila it works great.
The AryaMod Sound Control(application) has got:
+ Viper4Android
+ Beats Audio
+ Dolby Atmos
I've also modified the other Dolby Digital Plus app to make the two Dolbies(Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital Plus) work at the same time but although DDP works, it's getting closed when you tap a button, so no need it currently.
Credit goes to developer of this mod: @Kamy and the people who made this mod possible.

Great share.
Few things I've noticed:
1. It breaks the default Sound Enhancements like HD Audio. Sound settings force closes when you try accessing stock sound enhancements.
2. While the MOD is decent, there is no way to enable Atmos and beats audio only for headphones. I don't like any sound mods on the phone's speaker as there is a significant risk of damaging the tiny internal speaker.
So, everytime I listen to music, I have to launch music player of choice + enable mods.
I have to make sure I manually disable the mods as soon as I unplug headphones to prevent damage to the speaker. And that sucks.
Anyone knows how to revert to stock enhancements without clean flashing?
It was a good share anyway. Wish the app had a setting to automatically disable sound mods on unplugging headphones.
Cheers!

You're right about 1 and 2's some part. Beats audio(V4A also) gets turned off when you unplug headphones but Dolby not. I dont use any of them for speaker too. Sounds weird and echoed lol.
And thanks for reminding 1 to prevent further actions. I will add that as a warning to first post if you dont mind.
I would personally recommend ARISE sound MOD instead of this, it's typical that default sound MOD will be disable and crash when you go into that setting.
I don't think ATOM is that good, I use VIPER mainly and you can have different settings for speaker, headphone, Bluetooth... Etc.
Lastly, to get rid of sound MOD, you simply dirty flash the rom, no need to wipe anything, done in 5mins.

I am a bit of an audiophile myself, i am lucky to own a pretty awsome and rather expensive in-ear (JH-Roxanne), there is no best sound, as it's largely down to your listening device/source/preference, but with my setup and my long history of seeking the best sound, I would share something here which I think a lot of people miss when doing sound mod. If you are using Android phone as your source, and you are listening to something like TIDAL HIFI which is 16/44.1 format, one of the most important thing you want to seek for is a chance for Andoird not to upsample the music. Phones typically don't come with Audio grade DAC, and andoird system put another layer to upsample the music usually to 48000 (because videos are in 48000, but audio are in 44100). If you happen to find a sound mod that sample and play your music at your native frequency at 44,100, and to whatever bits your source is (16 in my case for TIDAL HIFI), then you already have a much cleaner and (much better) sound imo than sound mod that upsample to 48000.
This is the case for me, i tried a lot of sound mod, even different version of ARISE Deut, and luckily i was able to tweak and run ARISE Deut 2.3.3 in my native frequency, no upsampling at all, and this sound is quite a bit better than the newer version of ARISE Deut 2.4 which upsample and i was not able to change that.
I suggest you give it a try, use ROM toolbox tool and goto BuildProp editor and disable 24 bit processing and also change the ARISE setprop, or your audio mod setprop to disable 24 bit processing and force 44,100 sample rate. You might find it to give your sound quarlity a noticably big boost, but again, this is my preference and you may not like it. Also it depends on your file format, if you are only listening Spotify then that's another story, or if you are listening to 24bit file, then that's also difference.
TL/DR, upsampling is bad, there is a good explanation about this online if you want to look into it deeper, having your phone to not upsample your music will imo usually gives you better sound in all of these sound mod.
Thanks for your time to explain and advice, really appreciate it. When i get a new rom to flash, i may try. Im just setting up all my previous apps/mods etc and will be observing the performance/battery life for a while. Also trying to get used to a device with on screen buttons(never liked 'em lol). Lets see how it goes. Thanks again. [emoji106]
The developer has been updated the mod to v3. FYI.
I know that this thread is very old, but I bought the xiaomi mi mix a few weeks ago and I'm still learning what I can and can't do with this beast. Can I use with RR 7.1.2?

much better for me...
How did you guys install the Viper or Arise?
I am currently on Epic Rom MIUI 9 and I couldn't get any of the two to enable the driver
With Magisk and the module or the "classic" way with SuperSu and Busybox it never gets enabled .

Use this Arise zip: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767141554
Select new user and Install:
» Viper 2.5.0.4
» Dolby
» The apps you may like like Esira player, Wlkman player etc
There are some modules like Ice sound etc, you can read about it while installing.
** Uninstall or skip Arkamys audio and MusicFX(constant FC's)
** Set permission to permissive
** AM3D zirene module doesnt seem to be working on Nougat, just saying.
** This module breaks the inbuilt headphones&audio effects feature..
Im actually using 2.89, which has both Dolby digital plus and Dolby atmos that you can use at the same time(to increase optimization).
Let me know ?

Finally I got some time to play with it and It eventually worked
Took some fiddling though because it wouldn't enable but now seems to be working well
Dolby Atmos is crashing but all the other Viper effects work nicely
Thank you! :good:

It's because of the Dolby Atmos is already installed by Epic rom(depends on version). If you want to make the Dolby work correctly; de-compress the Epic rom zip, remove dolby zip and dolby strings from updater-script and recompress the rom zip then cleanly flash it, i mean from scratch which is painfull. Perhaps removing the installed dolby files from the directories then re-flash Arise may help though.
