So I got some new headphones with bigger speakers than your normal "ear buds". With the volume at full it isn't very loud...
I tried getting one of the volume boost apps from the market and it made the sounds louder for sure, but the quality we terrible. Lots of static. Is there any better solution?
I tried the headphones on my computer and the sounds was way louder and quality was excellant.

The gingertiny kernel has audio boost built into it, and also other kernels if your not on gingerbread. You can find it in the dev section. Other than that an app is your only option.
Well you see they purposely limit the output on portable devices because kids listen to it too loud. So it sucks when you get a nicer set of headphones or hook up to a stereo and it has really low volume. Get a headphone amplifier but its another device with battery you have to charge and carry with you.
Bummer, not looking carry another device. I an on miui so sense kernels are no good for me.

Not sure but im willing to bet there is a non sense kernel out there with audio boost. Or mabey a kernel module to enable it.
I'm pretty sure Chad's kernel has audioboost and it's AOSP.

Yea I used to use Chad's but it's really buggy with miui. Maybe I'll try tiamat.

I just use DSP manager and adjust the eq up a couple db's...

Chad's has audioboost and it shouldn't be buggy with MIUI. What type of issues were you having?
Use poweramp?

has anyone else noticed that the sound being output thru the audio jack on cm7 and miui is not as loud or clear as when using a touchwiz Rom? I have and I'm wondering if there is anyway of fixing or improving audio output. I don't want to carry around a ipod anymore lol any and all help appreciated

I think the volume increments are pretty broken. I've been using CM7 and I use my phone in the gym. It's been pretty irritating
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
i'm on the same boat +1
I wonder if the audio can be modified to be better I heard of some mod it was like voodoo something I wonder if that can be ported to out phone

How can I fix this? Has anyone else had this problem with Volume+?
Volume+ makes my sound skip. It always has, even since sfr1.2 (not blaming any rom here, just giving a time frame).
Right now I'm on CleanGB EL30 MTD. I flashed the Beats port. Installed V+ clean from the market.
Sound skips.

Same issue on miui.. No fix yet but I'll probably be uninstalling volume +

Have you tried going into eq settings and changing it to beats emulation?

Yeah. I even tried changing it to other eq settings. Even turned off the eq on powerAmp.
This beats thing doesn't seem to really do much of anything anyway. I seriously get better sound using the powerAmp eq. Voodoo sound was great, but I haven't installed a capable kernel since switching to mtd.
Perhaps I'll do just that though. Go for the voodoo again.
Can beats be used without V+? How would one utilize it?

Hey Guys -
I recently tried the Franco kernel with hopes for a speaker boost, but it turns out that just does headphones. I'm looking for another kernel and or ROM which is not bloated, doesn't kill the battery and will make the speaker/ringtone louder.
I'm by no means a power user, use maybe 3-4 apps total, so don't need all the bells and whistles. Just would prefer something close to stock, with good battery life, and has a good volume boost on the speaker/ringtone.
Thanks!
I personally recommend Trinity Kernel and any ROM that works for you. You also need to purchase the app in the Play store to modify the volumes. Its a small price ($3 USD) and goes to a very talented developer
Just use dsp manager to boost speaker volume, you can also purchase franco's app and boost volume from there

What DSP manager? Volume+ doesn't seem to work on JB?

CM 10 nightly has a volume boost patch integrated. Its way louder than it needs to be.

You wount regret it its basic with only internal changes done to it with almost nothing changed visually from stock its only missing toggles then itd b perfect for me ive used it b4 with Franco and its a good combination
Speaker volume and ringtones are just not loud enough on any rom I've tried. I was hoping they would be louder with this one but they are still too low. I guess it's the hardware... Darn.

Has anyone else noticed this? I've tried LiquidSmooth RC8, the latests Paranoid Android, and the newest SlimROM. They all must be based off the same ROM, because audio quality is equally horrendous. I notice that in the Settings > Sound that there is an option to select between MusicFX and DSPManager. However, none of these applications seem to have any affect over the audio, whatsoever. I am surprised that the BASE audio wouldn't be the same as every other ROM. Shouldn't these EQ/DSP add-ons just allow you to modify the stock flat-EQ? Most people would probably want a flat EQ anyways, because their audio ends up on the car stereo, or some other device that already has these controls.
With that said, are you guys noticing the same thing? I absolutely cannot get Pandora or Spotify (haven't tried any others because I don't care,) on these new ROMs. I hope this isn't what the latest CM10 offers, because I am about to flash to that now.
Oh man, I just loaded up the latest CM10 stable and it has the same problem... At least DSPManager can modify the EQ for the entire system, not app-specific. Even still, it sounds nowhere near as good as it did before. While I'm flashing my phone I am playing feeding the same Beacon "The Phoenix" audio cube on my desk with my Transformer TF300T and it is shaking the whole surface with bass, and sounds very full. I played with all the EQ settings, and went manual and got nothing remotely close using my S3 with these ROMs.
Just restored my CM10 11/7/2012 nightly and it has flawless audio over bluetooth--but other issues like missed calls, etc
You silly op you.that's backwards dspmgr is simply part of the general aosp experience and all aosp roms recently developed that bug
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
I dug through quite a view AOSP-based ROM threads and could not find anything. I don't understand how anyone could possibly use these ROMs with that horrifying bug?
Freeze or uninstall DSPmanager then install a new audio engine (I use team AC!D's), problem solved.
EDIT: I've never had that happen before but I always freeze that app and I've been using AC!D audio mod since the beta for this phone.

I just bought power amp and all of my songs are extremely low quality. This doesn't seem to be a problem on aokp for my cousins s2. Wonder if its an s3 only deal.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Its terrible...I cant even use any of these ROMS because of this!
I don't have issues over wire, but Bluetooth is borked in aosp. Due to the transition to 4.2 don't expect quick fixes so.... I moved to a tw rom mainly because of bt and ril related battery drain.......
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
Is this supposed to be a 'feature?' If so? They should remove DSPManager and let us decide. I would always prefer some flat EQ so that I can process it elsewhere.
I have 2 sg3's one Jelly Bombed and one CM10 based. Side by side TW BT sounds better. 1 fix for CM10 is after starting BT audio go to your phone and make a call (I just dial 123) then hang up as soon as it connects. Viola, bass is back and audio is tolerable... hope this helps you out

My dsp manager just makes everything sound worse and distorted. The only rom that doesn't do that is hyperdrive for me. Every other rom just makes it worse. It not my headphones either as I have beats. Any ideas on why this is happening?

You could try using another sound mod. You could try awesome beats, ac!d, viper, etc.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
awesome beats wont work. it either wont make any effects or distort it. and acid works only for the enhancements that it makes on its own. if i do anything else it will have the same effect.
I have one that works, I know because I tried about 20 of them and this one works with everything I tested, its only glitchy with play music.. The thing is I don't remember what thread I got it from so I don't know if I'm allowed to just post a link to it
