[Q] Music Echos when I put headphones in - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

This happened yesterday out of the blue and is really strange.
Here is the problem: the music player works fine on the external speaker but when I plug in headphones the quality goes to ****, the background music still plays but the vocals echo and become staticy. I tried multiple headphones and all had the same result, I tried restarting my phone and that didn't work either. I also tried to mess around with the equalizer but that didn't help.
I am on an El29 kernel with CM-10 10-20121108-Experimental-d710-beta2
Any idea on whats going on? any help will be much appreciated, thank you!

It could be the "experimental" in your rom.

Have you tried any of the new nightlies? Also have you tried DSP manager?

[Q] Music played thru headphones VERY distorted.

Hey all, I'm having problems with audio played thru my headphones, wanted to see if I could get some ideas as how to fix it. Music is only distorted when played thru headphones, and yes I tried multiple headphones. From the speaker it sounds prefect. It doesn't matter if it's played from my internal memory, Google Music, or Pandora.... All distorted
When I say distorted, I mean it sounds almost like it's coming from underwater and the vocals are almost completely drowned out.
By the way I'm rooted running the latest versions of AOKP Rom and Franco's Kernal. I don't think I had this problem before I rooted, I don't really remember to be honest. I've only my phone for less than a week, been rooted for 2 days, I don't recall if I used headphones on it prior to rooting
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Had that problem with one of the Franco's kernels think it was 19 and aokp 26... try changing kernel or rom ....

DSP Manager for ICS Not Working

Has anyone gotten DSP to work on ICS roms? I'm flashing the CM9 DSP Manager, and it installs fine.
Opening the application up I'm able to select presets, turn on bass boost, etc, but the sounds effects to not activate (no change in sound). They say they're enabled, but they're not.
I've tried on ROMChicago, Darkside, BulletROM. I've tried on a handful of music players to verify they were not overriding the settings.
Please don't refer me to PlayerPro or a different app to improve my sound-- I've purchased them all and tried them all, to my ears, there's no better sound than with DSP Manager setup properly.
Thanks,
TL
Works find here with beats audio mod. Only works with stock music player.

AOKP with beats mod for the SG2 and with working DSP from CM9. I searched and found them all. I use Power amp though. I wanted to see if I can make it work, and it does

So you can turn on a song, then open the DSP Manager UI, enable and disable bass boost, and noticeably hear the difference immediately?

DSP manager dynamic range
Hi,
I installed Darkside Evolution3 v7 ROM and I noticed that dynamic range really gives good results.:good:
When I turn it ON it works fine for a second or two and then the sound gets really messy.
When the volume is changed works again and in a second it switches back to a messy sound.
To listen I have to keep pressing volume buttons up and down.
have ay idea about this?
cheers.
This may sound dumb, but did you try adjusting the effects strength. I thought dsp wasn't working for me either, then I realize that it was set on slight. After I moved it to extreme the sounds are way louder.

Ya Ive tried that. when I turn it to the extreme the effect is different but the same revert issue comes within 1 second ov volume change.
But if I go up use max volume (15) it stays that way but the bass is too draggy.

I was just browsing through and found you're post. It's funny because I am having the very same issue with the Darkside Evolution3 v8 ROM. You did a wonderful job explaining the problem I was trying to put it in words but that's exactly what its doing. Turn the volume up it sounds great and then a second later you can hardly hear it. Some things I noticed, it only seems to happen with an audio jack headphones plugged in. I dont notice it with my car blue tooth. Also have you noticed a difference if you just turn off DSP mgr? I forced closed it and it was fine but as soon as I started that process again it had the same effect. It's quite annoying.

I tried force closing it and then the sound effect is totally gone and it sounds like stock player. The issue is only with the dynamic range filter.
if its turned off the issue doesn't come up. I was hoping to upgrade to v8 due to this issue and it seems that there is no luck in that as well.

Hey,
Found a solution to the dreadful issue. Install tasker and add a action which changes media volume
continuously one up and down will not effect your listening experience but will keep the effects alive.
hook the tasks up with a profile and you can make it automatic when the headset is plugged in.
I waisted whole day trying different versions of dspmanager.
Most of the files floating around just repackaged versions sometimes wrongly of basically 4 different builds.
I got 2 different packages... one is working fine with Pandora and everything else but GoogleMusic, the second is working with GM but not with Pandora... rest of the versions give either bad distorted sound or do not work at all.
I am on stock ICS. Which dsp you want?

Completely lost audio

So has anyone else had this problem? I'm on CM9 and I noticed my alarm didn't go off the other day, or at least I didn't hear it. I've been playing around and I discovered I have no speaker audio at all (phone still works) but Pandora, audio notifications and even touch sounds produce no noise through the speaker. Audio through the headphone jack works fine but speak audio is completely gone. I tried CM10, same problem. Nandroid back to CM9, still no audio. Starting to think maybe a hardware issue? I'm going to try to ODIN back to stock but if that doesn't work I guess its hardware unless anyone else has an idea.
So back to stock EL29 rooted and no speaker audio. SOL?
No ringer either?

My e4gt did the same thing. Hardware issue. Try hitting the phone near the speaker and it'll probably start wprking

Weird issues with audio on my G2

Hey guys, I'm running the Elitemod ICS rom on my Desire Z, and lately I've been having some really really strange issues with audio. Firstly, when I plug headphones in nothing happens, and when I adjust the volume the beep that plays goes through the speaker not the headphones, but music or videos go through the headphones, no headphones icon appears as I think it used to do. Just before I was adjusting the volume and testing out music and noticed it was extremely quiet, I was about to reinstall the louder volume mod from the dev section, but I noticed that the audio was playing through the earpiece not the back speaker..... After a restart everything is nice and loud and normal, should I be worried or was it just a glitch.
EDIT: When playing music with Apollo, it seems that audio is playing out of the earpiece as well as the back speaker. Is this normal?
No, this is not normal. Did you do a clean install of the rom? Did you try other ROM's?
Since the problem started happening no I haven't tried any other roms, in the past yes I've tried heaps of roms. I did do a completely fresh install of this rom a while ago but it just started happening out of seemingly nowhere
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
I can only guess that it's a hardeware error if it doesn't work correctly on other rom's as well. If other rom's with the same kernel and android version work, you can try to copy the drivers from that rom to your current rom.
I hope it's fixed by installing a totaly different rom, otherwise you'll have to sent this one in to get it fixed as well.

i think its something to do with some settings or ****... like trickster settings
tell me what all sound related things have you done

I use my Nexus the same way, with an aux cable in my car. I use Google Play Music and I never have this issue. I notice it may pause for a second when I turn the screen off but after that, its all good. Is that what you mean or does it do it constantly? I also stream my music with Play Music. But I have also played some files right off my phone with no issues as well.
yes it pause then plays again goes on this way.. i just can't play my music arghh soo frustrated with it:/

So it pauses then plays, pauses then plays, pauses then plays....nonstop? I never had that issue. Maybe its your stereo.

I have the same problem. Not only with car aux but with any auxiliary device, including headphones. Also this happens with any music app, any custom ROM. Audio plays fine without anything plugged in. A solution if possible would be awesome cause its super frustrating.

this happens a lot!!!
here's what I did:
Use a player app that has de the ability to disable lockscreen music control (like poweramp or nexmusic)
That helps with the constant interruptions when playing music. they keep happening but not so often
I hope this helps
I've seen something like this before...if you are using trickster and the headphone volume boost is on try turning it off..with my phone a setting over 1 will cause my phone to hiccup while plugged into an aux jack...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
tried trickster settings.. all are off.. still happening..
infact now with the new play music it constantly keeps on happening i have to use poweramp and it happens randomly in between .. a permanent and constant fix is needed as many are facing this problem
sent from my sexy Nexy
ok figured out the solution.. in trickster set high performance volume to off.. and other one to 3..
