[REQ] [MOD] Increase maximum bluetooth A2DP bitpool - HTC One X

Hi!
I found this mod when searching for a fix. The mod increases the bluetooth music streaming quality highly. Now the sound is disordered and hissy.. The mod raises the the MAX-bitpool to 64, when default is around 32.
The only thing is the mod is made for the Samsung Captivate Glide. Could somebody make this mod work on our HOX?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880298
Thanks!

Hox has definitely higher bitpool than 32.. I would say it's about 50. You can compare it with desire or any other older model which has 32 and see the difference.
This was also the main reason why I rooted my old desire (cyanogen has first fixed this issue in version 6).
Hox is the first android phone with fixed bitpool on stock rom.
If this mod really increases it to 64, that would be awesome

Anybody? Anywhere? Any chance?
I'm a noob, can't do it..
..would be nice.
:cyclops:

I would love to have this. I've gone back to using the 3.5mm jack in my car because the sound just wasn't there.

Yes,
Exactly what I have been forced to do also, go back to the wire..
I don't understand why they can't set the default already at 64, what difference would it make, only make the sound 100% better..
Now there is a way to fix it, i just hope somebody with the right knowledge could help...

fix?

Idk, nobody says anything about what it actually fixes. Does the mod raise the bt bitpool or what? and the mod is for the nexus 4, not sure is it compatible for our HOX.
It looks like we are not gonna get a fix for this on the HOX...
Thanks!

I'm coming from the One X+, it has the same issue then the one x, and i've tried out ad2p streaming over a brandnew htc one: still the same problem!!!
it's a shame that a big manufacturer like htc can't fix a software problem like this, cause if you stream over a new aokp or cm 10.1 rom, the problem is fixed...
does someone have already a solution for sense 4+ roms?
thanks alot.
cheers

Yahyoh, you are THE man ;-)
Can confirm this little app works perfectly on Galnet Miui 2.11.26/Siyah 2.1. The quality of sound doesn't seem to be affected adversely either. I will test this further tomorrow when I'm out & about (around 4.5 hrs listening to music/use).
Thankyou for solving this really frustrating problem on the SGS2
Edit - Yahyoh, did you write the app/fix ? If you did, you need to put that sucker on the Market or at least give people the chance to donate to you man. I know I'd either buy a paid version or sling you a few bucks for this ;-) On the other hand, if it's not your work you probably want to reference/give credit to whomever wrote it. Just sayin.

Im really happy to help all people that have this bug because its really annoying me when i use headphone or connect to my home theater or car and the sound was toooo low and i found this fix and im not who wrote this fix i'm just find it
Nice one mate. Been looking for something like this and even considering buying an ipod..The funny thing is really loud at low volume
this fix + Volume + = burst ur ears
Excuse the language, but holy ****! I've tried everything; all the EQ tweaks, Volume+, and everything in between. I had just accepted it as fact that the Galaxy S II would never be a loud device. I tried VolumeBoost for the GSII, but it distorted the sound horribly at even small increases. But this, just.. wow! The sound boost is amazing. I have to ask, where did you find this man? It's amazing. As alphaola said, I was actually considering buying an iPod just for a music device, but with this? No chance
Sorry for the over-excitement, but this is amazing.
CyanogenMod 7.1 Stable.
I wonder if there is gonna be a fix for Samsung roms.
Working perfectly on Turkbey ROM V29.2 thanks.

[Req] Beats Audio for HERO

Hi, i have came across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525226 where some dev trying to port Beats Audio to every devices. But it offered an CWM flashable zip. Anyone kind enuf to upload a signed flashable zip ?? Thx in advanced! Hope Hero user can benefit from this!!
Signed

Is Beats Audio any good for Hero?
THX Habarugggggggg u r really a nice guy
EDIT: this din work for hero... can u make another signed zip form DOWNLOAD03/02/12 .zip from the forum? thx in advanced.
I think this Beats Audio is intended for Android OS 2.3+. Are you running at least GB?
tryed on wildhero v5 with Amon_RA can't install
As for me, i tryed any beats zip file, signing it and this was not possible to install it via amon ra because of a status 0 error.
I searched about it, and I read it meant that the hardware is not compatible with the zip I'm trying to install.
As an example, it's as if I was trying to install the ruu of the HTC One V(good looking, like the hero on the htc Hero
So, I've no idea of how to go trough that problem
(it's not my level anymore)

Sometimes, there are headphones that are beats like in term of specs
Thus, if the beats audio equalizer could be associated with a good headphone, the result can be good.
(personally I have a really good, really cheap headphone with a very good response in low frequencies, and I just can't wait to try it out with the beats equalizer)
The Beats!
By looking on the Wildfire S forum, I found that post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525759&highlight=beats
By downloading it, I tryed it at first with no change.
It gone wrong because it was not signed...
Then I signed it...
See attachment.
unfortunately for me, I did it too fast to see any difference...:'(
But, if you don't trust this file or whatever, I compared the system files from the original post and it seems to be the same... So that's it
Working fine!! Thanks lolo7291
Thx lolo !! i will try it now can giv u ppl some feedback!! =)
EDIT: The sound is somehow louder and deeper bass but i did not see much improvement.. LOL.. THX AGAIN FOR US TO TRY OUT
can someone explain what happens with this addon? I flashed it, and i don't see any difference in the interface nor the audio quality...
IMO Beats Audio is nothing special, in the end it's kinda like a equalizer preset made by monster
BEATS is just another audio booster or equaliser.. ntg massive.. this is a hack where it wont have any beats logo appearing even it is running in the background. u need decent earphone to actually listen the difference made. Not huge difference
I don't know why but I've got the feeling that it works for the first boot only after flashing it from amon-ra....
I've got to check it out....hope it's working well finally, if not, I don't know what to do to fix it...(for now)
Anyone else having this feeling?
Not much difference really.... cant really hear it with our bear ear.. haha

[Q] ║ Handset Sound Problem - WFS ║

Hi all,
I just realize that my phone's sound is too low while I was talking with somebody. I can't hear the people who talks with me on phone. I have to use speaker to hear them. When I get on the bus and if someone is calling me, I feel the hell I'm using infrarom now and I tried others (cyanogen etc.)
Handset sound is better on infrarom. What do you suggest me to do? Is there any rom with good handset sound quality?
Another problem is touch menu buttons are not working. Is there any setting to turn it on? Or any rom suggestions for it? Otherwise I will begin to sorrow for that
King regards

Fix for poor A2DP quality on 4.2.2

Just wanted to share this here. There is clear audible decrease in audio quality on 4.2.2 when listening over bluetooth (A2DP). All the higher tones were somehow garbled, like cymbals, or high vocals, etc. I could clearly notice the poor quality on 4.2.2 on my car stereo and also the improvement after installing the fix on my stock rooted GN 4.2.2 (GSM). I haven't tested this on custom ROMs.
Steps:
Root your phone, if not rooted
Make Nandroid backup (in worst case, you might not be able to boot)
Download bluetooth.default.so http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39632#c158 Also attached to this message.
Download audio.a2dp.default.so http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39632#c163 Also attached to this message.
In /system/lib/hw, rename bluetooth.default.so to bluetooth.default.so.bak (or whatever)
In /system/lib/hw, rename audio.a2dp.default.so to audio.a2dp.default.so.bak (or whatever)
Copy files to /system/lib/hw
Set permission on both files to be same as with the original files (644)
Restart phone
Edit: deleted

I asked information about the bluetooth files for A2DP streaming fix..
CM's Bluetooth quality (I mean A2DP streaming quality) is much better than on stock ROM.
I noticed the difference when I tested CM10.1 first Nightly of JB 4.2.2..
Does this help with call quality over standard Bluetooth

ok i'm sorry, but just to be clear, doing this on CM10.1 won't do a think correct?
I have been looking for something like this!!! Thank you! What exactly does it do? Does it increase the bitpool of the stream?
FYI, I just noticed that it changed my bluetooth device name to "Nexus 4" which can easily be changed back in the bluetooth settings...
Very, very good fix. thanks

Interested in this answer as well. Can anyone clarify please?
Is it possible/likely that in addition to fixing issues with quality, this will also resolve the high-speed playback problem? A few other people and myself have experienced BT audio streaming where it plays back way too fast in the car. So far there doesn't seem to be a qualified fix for it. I'm interested to try this and see what happens - just wanting to see if anyone knew for certain ahead of time.

Thanks so much for posting this OP!!! I have been lamenting my purchase of the N4 until this fix. The phone is now perfect! Well aside from no voice search for music like Siri (Google Voice search never pulls up my music).
I finally fixed my Bluetooth in call audio.I switched back to 4.1. This really sucks as I got used to 4.2.2 pull down toggles. I really hope Google gets this straightened out. This fix does help the Bluetooth audio streaming but my work truck and headset are not A2DP and when in call the volume seems to fade in and out. My Subaru has A2DP and made music easy to listen too but in call still seemed bad.

Any chance this fix works on non-Nexus hardware? Since moving to a JB phone from one running ICS I have lost two very useful facilities - Llama being able to pick up cell changes without the screen being on and good quality BT audio.
Not sure if this will help anyone else but found doing factory reset fixed most of my 4.2.2 Bluetooth issues. Ota gave me issues. When 4.2.2 Google factory image was released I fastboot flashed it did a factory reset immediately and all seems to work fine but id tags for songs.

Viper4Android for Lollipop

First off I'd like to say thanks for this great forum. I've used it many times over the years but just recently registered. I've never really had anything substantial to add (still don't). In the past I've had a Photon and HTC One M7, both from Sprint. I never really had the urge to mess with them at all. I recently bought a Note 4 and I decided to root it. I'm more of a computer person, building and customizing but never got into messing with phones.
With that said I'm in need of some help so I decided to register. Not sure if I have much to add at this point to become a contributing member so if anybody is hesitant to help I completely understand. I've been a noob on many other forums, and have also seen noobs come and go. So if anybody can help, that's great and I thank you ahead of time. If not, that's OK too.
I was completely torn between the new LG, an HTC One M9 and the Note 4........ I even considered the Nexus. The audio quality of the M7 that I had was and still is better than any other non-HTC phone on the market and it was really tough to convince myself to get something different. I wanted a big screen with great hardware. The Note 4 had all that except for the audio. The audio, speakers and headphone quality absolutely suck. I am terribly disappointed. I was going to see if HTC was going to release a version with a bigger display, I saw that it is a toned down version. If HTC made a 5.5-5.7" maxed out version like the smaller M9 I would have gotten it.
Now, I've rooted this phone and I've gone through all the steps of installing V4A and no matter what I do it does not function at all. The problem I see is that my phone upgraded to Lollipop. In order to properly install V4A the SELinux mode needs to be set to permissive. There was an app (I forget the name of it offhand) that could change the mode, unfortunately it is not compatible with Lollipop. Without changing the mode to permissive I cannot properly install V4A.
I've searched through this forum a couple times over and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Is there another way to change this mode? What about recommendations for one of the custom ROM's that has V4A in it? I'm really open to any suggestions. I'm really fed up with this phone telling me what volume level is enough. I use this phone for music all the time and the stock equalizer automatically cuts the volume down to the highest equalizer setting. I can hear the difference, when using Spotify if I skip to the next song the stock equalizer (SoundAlive) takes a split second to kick in and you can hear how it should sound without SoundAlive. For all this Note 4 has, I'm really starting to regret getting this over the M9. It would be a great phone if I can get some volume back as well as some decent sound quality.

You need custom kernel to set mode from enforced to permissive... or google there is away to enable V4A to work with stock kernel that involve romtool.
This phone imo is top notch in all areas but I agree with you on the audio quality, stock music player that is. I use PowerAmp and all of that changes, even through the phones tiny speaker. My suggestion is to revert to stock and simply install the app if you're just looking to improve audio quality. Just my 2 cents.

I've heard many good things about PowerAmp but as far as I know that's only applicable to downloaded songs. It doesn't work with Spotify.

Yeah that's true. Sorry
I'd suggest using the Emotion r14 kernel. That will get you permissive and a much snappier phone as well as having tweaks specific to sound. It supports Faux 123 sound on top of everything else. You should find a link to the kernel in the original android development area.

Thank you for the recommendation. I'll check it out. If I can get the permissive setting I shouldn't have any issues getting V4A installed. Everything else that comes with that kernel is an added bonus.
OK, that kernel worked great! I was able to install V4A almost flawlessly. No disrespect to any of the equalizer apps out there but V4A is by far the best audio control I've used. I've been banging my head against the wall trying to get this installed. That kernel did make the phone a little "snappier" as you put it. I haven't had a chance to mess with Synapse, I might just leave well enough alone as it's now working he way I want. Thanks again.
im just curious do you still have data after flashing that kernal?
Do I still have data? Not sure what you mean.
Hello to all.
Can someone help me with the tunein radio not working with viper audio?
I changed my phone to permissive, and added the 2 zips somebody uploaded that changed the build prop. But i still cannot get viper and tunein to work together. Maven Pro audio works great as does iheart with viper.
Thank you in advance.
Blessings
I'm not a subscriber of Tunein, I wish I could help ya. Does V4A work with other audio services?

According to this it's an issue with Tunein. It is a little old so not sure if there is a different issue since then, so take it for what it's worth.
