[Q] Best audio mods for Note 2? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Me myself and I are running Android Revolution HD 6.0 with Perseus 29 kernel on my grey Note 2. With this perseus kernel you have a few audio options through sTweaks but I can't get my 24bit 96Khz FLACS sound like I would like to.. The bass keeps sounding a little woozy.. I would like to have cleaner bass and a little more detailed mids.
I am doing my listening test with 3 pairs of headphones (Stock Samsung earphones, B&W C5 in-earphones and cheapass Sehnheiser HD201 headphones)
I am using different albums for my test containing: Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon, Michael Jackson - Thriller, Kendrick Lamar - Good Kid, Beatles - Love. These albums are all 24 bits and 88.2Khz or 96khz and played with Neutron Music Player.
Mods and apps I tried:
AC!D (works but better without stweaks.. stweaks seems to overrule some stuff wich results in distortion)
Awesome Beats (doesn't seem to work on my rom and kernel)
Neutron Music Player (Fine player with some nice audiophile options but poor interface)
Sony Walkman Player (Doesn't want to install)
sTweaks (Haven't found right settings for it yet and I don't want it to interfere with AC!D)
The problem is them interfering with each other.. I think AC!D does a fine job but its interfering witch sTweaks I guess.. Still some sort of distortion.
What do you run on your Note 2 to get the purest audiophile possible sound out of it? Please also note what rom and kernel you are running not every mod is compatible with every rom or kernel.

Have you tried installing Beats audio Installer [ROOT] from the Play store it helped my sound alot make sure you make a nand backup though you cant un install it.

What rom and kernel are you running this Beats installer on?

Im using omega 8.0 rom with the acid mod installed and sony walkmann player. im only using stock headphone atm but the sound is great on them.
Ive included in the post the sony walkman app that works with my note 2 and the acid mod which needs to be flashed via cwm. If this helps please hit the thanks button.

I don;t know how you find it, but I used this for a while then uninstalled as was draining my battery too quickly. Walkman standalone fine, but not with the mod. However Beats worked well with Walkman.

In my mind there is currently no doubt which kernel has the best wolfson mod: neak. It's a combination of scoobydoo and another mod whose name escapes me.
Perhaps its bass frequency tuning will remedy some of your issues. The mids are also more pronounced when using dac direct in my opinion.
All these software mods never impressed me, no offense to anyone.

Would you please comment on the ability to control the headphone amplifier and the Media Volume independently like could be performed on the SGS with Voodoo Sound? I don't have a Note 2 yet--- one of my main purchasing decisions is based on the ability to use Scoobydoo/STweaks to control the headphone amplifier volume independently. Thanks in advance.

Yes, sort of, in neak there is a volume hack similar to the one in voodoo, which makes you able to override the channel volume, so that the end result is about the same as with voodoo.
Your situation sounds very much like mine, I came from the sgs and took a leap of faith hoping that some voodoo mod would arise at some point, and it did! :thumbup:

Interesting, I suppose I will have to see how development for the Verizon variant goes. Hopefully, I will be able to find a way to get Scooby/STweaks working like Voodoo. It is hard to try until I get the device, but my upgrade is at the end of the week!
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2

In case anybody cares, Perseus kernel with Stweaks allows to independently control headphone amplifier volume and media volume. It is essentially the same features as Voodoo, but without the Voodoo app. It is under the Audio section of Stweaks.
Awesome!

ok i got a pair f beats solo and they are overwellmed if i turn up the volume all the way up ... and i was able to do that by frst rooting my device and flashing UNEAK kernel it comes with wolfson audio and just go to play store and download uNEAK engine app and you will have close to pc sound out of your note 2 just make sure your headphones can handle the power your phone will put out .. like i said i got a pair of solos that cant keep up .. its time to upgrade my headphones ... power amp player is a good player too alot of otions but love the MUSIC SQUARE FEATURE ON STOCK PLAYER

Not sure on the kernel but the rom the jedi ones come with a walkman app and awesome beats. Beats works with the walkman app so you can enhance the sound. It doesnt work with pandora though. Ive only had it a couple days on my phone and plaued around with it a bit.
is your phone rooted?
if not, DL the equlaizer app or the nooxoziede eizo rewire from the play store.
if it is rooted, you have a number of sound enhancement mods that you can flash. Just do a search for rezound, DSP manager, awesome beats,
acid audio engine, kingbeatz, SRS WOW mods, beats, etc
I'm rooted.
Thanks. I just want to make sure I don't flash something not made for this phone. I don't have the international version of the 7100. I use odin to flash and don't want my phone to show modified (so I can't get t-mobile updates).
Given all that criteria, what would you suggest?
I've tried various mods and none will work.

First off
1. Always do a nandroid backup, if somethiing messes up you can always flash back to your backup and start again.
2. I will download the free equalizer app and also pay for the license key, with out the license key. it doesn't do anything.
3. Play with it for a awhile.
4. once your feedup with it, download the nooxoziede eizo rewire, it's a really cool sound enhancement app.
5. Then you can be more experimental, flash the mods like acid audio engines, universal mods like kingbeatz, etc
I've been using Jedi X7.2 rom, the awesome beats and the walkman app is built in, it's plays well with universal sound enhancement mods.
Got alot of sound enhancement mods in it, but I like the way it sounds now. But the sound is stil in the bright side, I am looking for the warm sound. I had the S2 before the note, it was able to achieve the warm sound. It is said that the note2 has a better DAC than the S2, but I think it has a bright sound, than the S2.
Also if you want a good music app, try the lesser known maven 3D sunset player , it's preset "xome1" is really good. Some like the poweramp player. I was with poweramp during my vibrant days and I flash the voodoo sound mod to make it better. If you want to tweak with the sound try the neutron music player. You really have to set it up correctly to get the best out of it. The trial period is only about an hour or two, then you'll have to buy the app. It's about $5, but I think it is worth it.
This is my 2 cents.

Thank you.
I have poweramp, I bought it. I think I have tried every player except 3d maven. I just tried that this morning and I'm surprised how well it sounds. It rivals poweramp from what I can tell at a quick listen and works with nooxoziede for another layer of customization.
Yes the Note II has the wolfson DAC, like the S3. I had the S2 and the Note II sounds better IMO. Samsung left the Wolfson DAC out of the original Note and people complained. Samsung heard them and put the S3 DAC in the Note II. Some have said it's not the optimal execution for the Note II and say the S3 is a better music player. Some people will find fault in anything.
Supercurio owns a Note II from what I understand so there may be a Voodoo sound port somewhere down the line.
I agree you on Neutron. Behind poweramp it sounded the best when I tested everything I could find. Maven may have taken that #2 spot.
I think with nooxoziede and either PAmp or Maven I should be able to get all the custom sound I want. Too many choices are not a good thing.
I'm rooted but running stock. I need my phone to work 100% and get T-mo updates. I want my Note II to sound better but not at any price.

If ever supercurio releases a voodoo sound, would it work with the stock t-mobile kernel?, From what I remember back when I was using the vibrant. I can only flash the voodoo sound
on a kernel that supported it. I communicated with ptmr3 the person who created the jedi series rom. He said he will look into the voodoo sound
if ever you come across a sound enhancement mod that is good, let me know

[Guide] Optimal Galaxy Nexus Audio Setup

Disclaimer: I am not a developer and have no rights or claim to any of the files listed below. I only use them to "Rock Out"
Like many of you I have struggled with the lack luster audio output of the Galaxy Nexus. Nearly a year later and much has been done to correct this. I was using Volume + for a while before upgrading to 4.2.1 which broke its functionality and limited the effect it had on my audio output. There are two formidable modifications out right now that will take your GNex to the next level but because they are similar in functionality I will discuss the one that provides the most merged features.
Before you get started please ensure that you have rooted your phone, have an updated custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM. I will not tell you which Kernel to use, however I will tell you that I have this 100% working on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus using AOKP 4.2.1 or AOKP MR1 BuildX. The MOD developers also state that it is confirmed working for the Galaxy Nexus 4.2.1 (AOKP) I do not know if any other ROM will work with this phone.
The MOD is called Ac!d Audio Engine which combines Beats Drivers found in some HTC phones with other sound engines such as Sony's Xlouder, Dolby, etc... There is another thread for the mod that I will link below. You can go there and read/download the MOD and I will give you a brief description below on initial setup.
Before installing this please make a full backup of you Galaxy Nexus. Even though this works for most phones it is also ROM dependent. With that in mind make a backup please. Coming from any other ROM or Version of AOKP you must do a FULL WIPE!!!! I would also download each component and upload to your phones internal SD before you run through the steps. This way you can install them all one after another and not have to wait for your phone to optimize applications multiple times.
Step 1 - Please visit http://aokp.co/release-jb-mr1-build-2/
Download the version or this for your phone. Like many developers they list the phones as the code name for instance VZN is Toro.
Install this using the latest version of CWM or TWRP. I realize most people get really attached to ROM developers and stick with them. I will promise you that this is totally worth trying for the sound improvement not only in quality but shear DB gain.
Wipe Dalvik
Step 2 - Install the version of GAPPS listed on the AOKP website. Remember that as this thread ages the ROM could change as well as GAPPS.
Wipe Dalvik
Step 3 (Optional) - Install your favorite Kernel. As long as it is verified for JB 4.2.1 it should work. I use LeanKernel (not tested on GSM) you can get that form here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13092-kernel-leankernel-minimalistic-kernel-48-58-12313/
Wipe Dalvik
Step 4: Install the Ac!d Audio Engine found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923630
Wipe Dalvik
Also Important download the Ac!d Noozoxide or Ac!d Awesome Beats appllication and flash as well. It is possible against the Dev's advice to install both of them. As long as you remember not to configure them both you should not get any audio issues. I tend to uninstall them via the standard app drawer if I want to switch and reinstall them later should I want to switch back.
Once installed bootup, go to settings, sound, music effects and choose the DSP you want to use either Awesome Beats or Noozoxide. Next open up a music player such as Google Music and start your favorite tune. Next open the application drawer and choose the DSP you installed to open. Tweak headphones first. Inside the application you will notice immediate change by enabling the equalizer and editing the sliders. Please note that depending on the quality of your headphones these values may need to be lower than expected to get rid of rattling or audio anomalies. The other two tweakable settings are for build in speaker and bluetooth audio output.
From my experience Awesome Beats is configurable louder however that introduces artifacts into your music if it crosses the thresh hold that your headphones can handle. Noozoxide has a few different filters and is easier to tweak. The reason I say to use either one of these is because sounds across you the entire phone are improved and louder; Calls, notifications, other player apps like Pandora etc.
I hope anyone who views this gives it a try. I wanted to wait until AOKP 4.2.1 had matured past build one to give everyone a smoother experience. Also this will push your phones DAC much harder. Certain kinds of headphones such as over ear (50mm +) couldn't really be driven hard prior to this MOD but now they can so you may experience additional battery drain if not using smaller ear buds. If you love music like I do most people will make this sacrifice.
Here is a video of an installation and tweaking of a Galaxy S3. The Galaxy Nexus will be similar once the files have been flashed and you can tweak your audio settings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pkmnKN-r9Y
Please let me know if you find this useful and hopefully you fall back in love with your phone all over again. :highfive::victory:
P.S. I really love wiping my Dalvik
Thanks, Joe.

I installed this after I updated my tenderloin to the latest CM 9 to the latest nighty. The first couple of flashes played the initial sounds but as soon as I plugged in headphones all sounds we failed to play. I simply dirty flashed the ROM a few times including the MOD until I turned off the ac!d audio notifications. Afterward I changed my dsp to Noozoxide and it worked perfectly. Strangely though the audio filters work and sound great but it still cannot compare to WebOS volume wise. This to me is proof that the driver choice is everything because the Touchpad has the better audio hardware than most mobile/tablet. Didn't want to stray from the Galaxy Nexus discussion but this could be viable for the GNex on CM 9+ or ICS in general.

No I flashed the ROM with the ac!d audio mod. I also chose noozoxide as the DSP but with CM you could try the included DSP it is identical to the awesome beats DSP. With ac!d audio you really need an equalizer to utilize the drivers. Even if you leave it flat you can at least get a dB gain.
I recall supercurio saying something along the lines of these not actually improving audio performance in measurements and such. I've looked at these before but I sceptical.... anyone have actual measure of improved performance and not just placebo?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I do not know if the audio drivers/ engine components are Placebo or not. What I do know is that my phone plays very deep bass and sounds great afterward. This might only be attributed to the DSP but I can tell you that Music FX is a terrible DSP and Volume+ stopped working with 4.2.1. So anything I can do to be satisfied with sounds is better than listening to SuperCurio debunk things with no proof. Is it better than DSP manager that comes with CM? I do not know.But if you can make a backup and it doesn't break your phone I also cant say there's any reason for skepticism.
acid works great with pa so far. flashed yesterday and havent had any issues when i've played over speaker or headphone port. Better then DSP manger... meh i can still crank up the bass when i am feelin in the mood and sounds great.

Yeah, on 10.1 I couldn't get either Noozoxide or AC!D Awesome Beats to kick in. Only the default DSP packed with CM worked. I tried it through my IEMs and my car. Though, yeah, even that was noticeably better.

I'm sorry that it doesn't work. It could be possible that cm 10.1 only works with built in DSP. It does work with aokp and paranoid android though which are both 4.2.1. So much for placebo though if even the packaged DSP manager was better... Granted. I suppose drivers actually make a difference despite what people who havn't tried it believe. Because the DSP is just an equalizer. The drivers are what improve the DAC performance.
P.S. I trust a curio to hold my TV in my bedroom not to tell me about what works on my phone.

Poweramp bass?

Does anyone feel like poweramps bass is always too strong or is it just me? I've been usingpoweramp for a very long time and my equalizer is set to how I like it but lately even with all the bass settings to the lowest, bass is always too strong and it messes up the song. I thought it was my headphones but when I connected my phone to my car which also has an equalizer saved specifically for it the bass was too powerful. I just tried apollo and it seems to be a lot better. Is anyone else having problems with poweramp bass?

custom rom / kernel = voodoo sound
you could try going a different route for bass... voodoo sound, if you haven't already.
we have one of the best sound chips for any phone in our Epic 4g's, and it can use a special kernel-level sound driver, voodoo sound.
for voodoo sound to work, you need to run a voodoo sound enabled kernel (effsi makes one, compatible with CM 10.1 and/or slim rom, the two best Epic roms IMHO.
then with that in place, you can run voodoo sound (free) from play store. it has a bass adjustment setting that works at the kernel level, so applies to all programs I believe, and in a different way then regular EQ like in poweramp.
BTW, another program to check out for audio that is supposed to make MP3 sound better, by using more CPU to over/extra sample, is Neutron MP. I can hear a noticable difference playing music through it, and bought the pay version. I am on monster turbines, with custom fit made earplugs from Radians custom mold plastic ($10, google).
Ya I'm pretty sure poweramp has something to do with it because I tested it on my cousins epic who had the same bass problem as me with his headphones and regular speaker and apollo doesn't have a blown out bass or the disorted sound.
I already use voodoo and know that it effecs my headphones but I understand what the problem that I'm having is. I'm pretty sure poweramp is my problem but I'm not sure why exactly.

Audio Equalizer's?

Anybody running an aftermarket eq or dsp pack? Looking to improve the audio. Tried a beats apk and it would only work intermittently, switched to player pro with the dsp plugin and audio is a little better. On my one x plus i had the viper rom with beats audio and it sounded great and had a bunch of different headphone profiles built in. Id like to get something like that again. Anybody found something that works. I am rooted on the at&t model if you need to kno.

Best Audio Note 2

Hi all.
Need some advice? I love PlayerPro and the stock Samsung music player but am wondering what Audio Mod is best for Clear Natural Sound?? I am not to bothered about base I just want clear audio, I play most music in my car - 9 speaker surround
I use Redpill kernel but not sure whether to leave as stock mod and use different kernel or use a sound MOD ie> Sony clearsound or bravia sound or ACID etc or switch kernel?
Also is it best to use mp3 or Ogg etc?
Thanks

Need some advice? I love PlayerPro and the stock Samsung music player but am wondering what Audio Mod is best for Clear Natural Sound?? I am not to bothered about base I just want clear audio, I play most music in my car - 9 speaker surround
I use Redpill kernel but not sure whether to leave as stock mod and use different kernel or use a sound MOD ie> Sony clearsound or bravia sound or ACID etc or switch kernel?
Also is it best to use mp3 or Ogg etc?
Thanks

Use JET AUDIO for playback and sony bravia is fine. Kernel does not matters, it just boost sounds. For clarity, player is major issue.

I wouldn't recommend using any software mod if you're looking for clear and unprocessed sound, stick to the wolfson mods in custom kernels. They are more or less identical and do the same thing, basically a DAC upgrade.
