[Q] Distorted Sound - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So about a month ago I thought I'd try some AOSP Roms (Liquidsmooth, JellyBeer, CM10.1) and all seemed to work okay with no niggles. However I went back to a stock based rom (Wanam) as I missed out on S-Pen features.
I decided to give LiquidSmooth 4.2.2 a try again but for some reason any audio I played sounded distorted at about 60% and above. I initially thought something had gone wrong with my phone but having tried Wanamlite again there were no issues. I thought I'd try my luck with JellyBeer and CM10.1 but the same problem persisted.
Has anyone had this issue? Initially when I had installed the roms the first time round I had no such issues with the sound but yesterday I did.
Any information/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Good question lol, I'm not really sure, I just used whichever was provided with the AOSP roms.
Wanamlite has Adam Kernel, have also tried Perseus with it and that's also fine.
Do you think it's worth trying adam/perseus on AOSP roms?

I dont think adam or perseus has aosp version. Should you double check..
Redpill and neak both have aosp versions. I would suggest neak. Not because one is superior to other, because neak is easier to tweak... uneak engine has simpler mods.. it shall also have saturation prevention.
Stweaks has some sort of down gain feature to prevent distortion also.. however stweaks only works with redpill not neak.
Anyway you will find appropriate switch if you check both of the kernels with related apps

Is it definitely a kernel issue? As I don't want to go through the hassle of wiping everything again and again

Well ull never know if u dont try.
I didnt say issue. But the others are customizable

And dont wipe nothing. Just glash the kernel.. but be sure to download aosp version!
Then download related tweak app. Finally, not to mention, tweak

just tried NEAK and RedPill, stweak seems to help alot, no more distortion at the sacrifice of slightly lower audio.
Thanks :good:

Well it seems even though I got the audio fixed on music, there was still alot of distortion in calls and in Google Now/Search. I don't really understand why this has happened as it was fine before and surely it cant be an issue with the phone as there's no distortion problems with Wanamlite or Stock rom.
I'm baffled

did you flash a rom with in call volume hack mod? They do sometimes increase it with mods...
Otherwise use saturation prevention both for speakers and headphone. neak would do the trick as I recall

As far as I am aware the roms do not have in call volume hack mod.
I'm currently just running Wanamlite 3.3 with NEAK 1.7 and getting really impressive battery life without any of the issues wrt AOSP roms, although I just love the GUI of AOSP roms so it's a bit of a trade off problem.
I guess I'll just keep on doing some research and going through the threads to see if anyone has had a similar issue as I'm unable to post on those threads yet due to my post count.
Thanks anyways though :good:

[Q] Having a bit trouble with sound & kernels

Hello, guys. I guess you could call me somewhat a noob, since I got my Galaxy Nexus just three days ago. I had a SGS2, Motorola ATRIX and a few HTC devices before, so I'm not THAT much of a noob, but with this device, I'm a starter.
When I had the HTC's, all kernels (which were not so many) were substantially different from each other. On the ATRIX, there was only one famous and good, so... it doesn't count. On the S2, there were so many, I decided I'd better go with MIUI and seal the deal.
On the Galaxy Nexus, I have AOKP, right now, and am using franco's latest kernel (milestone-4).
The only troubles I am having is with the earpiece. During calls, I can hardly hear the person at the other end if I'm in a crowded area - problem I never encountered before on any of my previous devices. I see most kernels (if not all of them) have ColorControl and SoundControl, but I must pay for the kernel developer's app in order to be able to control those... and I might do that.
But, until I do so, please help me out. Which kernel is the best? I mean, I wouldn't really wanna spend money on franco's app, for example, to find out later that GLaDOS is better; besides, I'm not really much of an app-buyer, so-to-say. So I really want this decision to be a good one, lol.
Besides, there's one factor that's kind of making me wonder... The earpiece volume shouldn't be this low, and the necessity of buying the dev app in order to be able to increase it shouldn't really exist. I mean, this is such a basic thing... Or perhaps I'm wrong.
I want to ask : did YOU have to increase the stock volume (not by pressing the volume buttons, of course)? And if you did, how did you do it? I'd like to try a free app for the time being...
And, secondly : what kernel would you suggest?
-----
I'm really sorry for being such a noob right now, but given the short time I had since I have the GN, I didn't really get to scout all of the threads and such... and I kind of want a very quick answer, so that's why I'm daring to ask. Plus, my exams just finished, so I'll have more time to chime in the dev topics, but still...
Try Volume+ to amplify your headset speaker. There is a free version. If this doesn't work you can download ANY kernel app and use it on basically ANY kernel since they all use the same implementation of the mods. It isn't necessary for me but it is nice to have it a little louder.
If you don't want to use the apps you can learn how to do it manually as they all have the option of editing settings through terminal I believe.

I tried Volume+ (free). I even increased the Maximum Volume by +4, but I notice NO DIFFERENCE at all . Tried it on Speaker, Headset and Bluetooth... none of them do ANYTHING :/
I tried this on my EVO 3D in the past - just out of curiosity. It didn't work then, neither. I kind of expected it to not work now, as well...

So, if Volume+ doesn't do anything, franco's app or GLaDOS's app won't do anything, as well, right? :/
-----
I was using franco's kernel on AOKP until now and the color multipliers from Settings - ROM Control - Performance didn't do ANYTHING. The colors were not changing as I adjusted the gauges.
I just flashed CMPlus and the color settings from Performance DO work - although they don't help my purple-gray tint when the screen brightness is low... but that makes me think that franco may have blocked the kernel in such way that only with his app you can change those - not through the embedded settings.
Anyway, Volume+ didn't do a thing with this kernel, neither. Why the hell? Is the earpiece speaker already set to the maximum volume? Cause if it is, it really sucks. The app either isn't doing anything, or the earpiece speaker is already at maximum - which seems kind of retarded, to be honest, since I must drop calls if I'm crossing the street, for example (`cause I wouldn't hear the person at the other end)...

Wrong, they will.
But to clarify:
Volume control mods from the kernels only adjust headset volume. FYI.
Secondly:
Try Lean Kernel.
Not only do I personally love it...
But Jake makes Lean Tweaks.
Which you edit through terminal.
(Flash Kernel. Flash Lean Tweaks. Open Terminal Emulator: Su (enter) lt (enter) and the options will appear).
These tweaks include the sound mods.

For the record, last night, my phone's battery dropped from ~22% to 8% over 9 hours. 2G/3G auto (full 3G coverage, though), Wi-Fi off, screen off. The phone WAS in deep sleep, because CPU Spy told me that. That was with franco's kernel.
I'm using CMPlus for the time being, but I'll try Lean in a couple of hours. I hope it works :-S
Erm... mind dropping me a link to the kernel thread? I can't find it here, on XDA - and it is not listed on the ROM/kernel/everything thread, neither...

The speaker is low, alright. In comparision with the S2 I previously had, yeah, it is somewhat lower. But the headset volume on the S2 was just great. On the GN, it is substantially lower :/ . I never had to drop calls when I was in traffic with my previous phones...

Do try the kernel implementations of sound controls then- they are a much bigger improvement than volume+

Changed the value from 0 to 3 (in volume_boost) and I notice no difference with the speaker OR the earpiece... Guess I'll just have to try LeanKernel, maybe this kernel I'm using isn't really that great when it comes to sound control

They may have implemented the same implementation in different ways If you want one that FOR SURE LIKE 100% TOTALLY works, use GLaDOS and the respective app. The author of GLaDOS is the one who originally implemented sound control and is the one that others use.

Hmm, I see.
I'm using LeanKernel (v3.9, stable) for the moment, with LeanTweaks. I enabled Highest Sound Boost, but am not noticing any improvement in earpiece volume :/
I'm beginning to be very sceptical about this... whether it would work with GLaDOS's app :/

By the way... Would GLaDOS's app work with other kernels, as well? Or it is SPECIFICALLY ONLY for that kernel?
I remember you said something that it would work with others, too... I can't load the previous page to check, though :/

If any of them are going to work it is GLaDOS since the author is the one who actually coded the sound control in. I don't know how Franco/Lean Kernel work, but I know for a fact that GLaDOS and similar (CMPlus) will work. If they don't, you might need an exchange.

[ROM]HO!NO! AOKP Milestone 6 V2 for P930

I need some tester to find bug (problem) with AOKP rom, right now everything seem to work as it should.
This is the last AOKP rom i compile for P930, overclock to 1728 mhz you can change voltage table with init.d script
You can change GPU freq. from system/init.d/10GPUoverclock file
You can use System Tuner app to change CPU freq. and Voltage in real time.
AwesomeBEATSv3 include in the rom
Add Crimson Cobalt theme.
aokp_p930_milestone-6-V2.zip
Plz clear data,cache,dalvik before installing and flash gapps after.
I'm currently backing up my setup on Full Throttle and flashing this; I'm glad to test. Your v6 Full Throttle is really stable by the way. It was initially giving me some force closes, but it seems to have settled in over the course of a few days. I've been meaning to try out AOKP and this looks like a great point to jump in, so I'll give feedback after I've played with this for a bit

Second impression...this rom is very smooth. I'm currently fattening 'er up with all my Titanium backups. We'll see how that goes lol. This is truly great, I really like all the customizations AOKP provides.
I'm about to install this rom.. Quick question.. When I install a new rom is it a bad idea to use TB to restore the 'system data'? Thanks!
EDIT: First impression- LOVE IT
Very smooth, no force closes or anything of that nature.

Yeah, I would not try to restore system data. The layout is almost certainly different enough to cause problems.
i can never let my buddies see this ROM boot-up or i will never hear the end of it.
running like a pissed-off pink unicorn.
You can disable the bootanimation in the Rom Settings. I think it's pretty easy to replace it in this rom, too, but I haven't gotten to that yet lol. I must say, this ROM feels just as stable as CM9.
The pink unicorn is the best next to the flying pop tart cat in gummy...lol

Can anyone report back comparing the smoothness of the UI compared to v6 full throttle. v6 is the smoothest rom I have used yet.
Dave,
HO!NO!,
it all worked very well on mine, no issues. I don't intend to run this one though, just figured i'd temp install it and see if can help with any issues but there were none.
Hm... Anyone know what the 'swqgger' toggle does?

swagger toggle is a gimmick/joke and has no functionality. i looked into it when i was running andasa's aokp build a few months ago.
This is going to sound really strange, but this is the best rom I've used in months. Finally, I am getting decent standby battery use again. My phone only used 6% battery overnight. The official CM9, Full Throttle, and ICS leak have been dying in less than 10 hours for me with like 2 hours of screen on time.

Check in settings>display>automatic backlight> tick use custom, then go to edit other levels and check the buttons section. If they're at zero, set them to 225 to restore buttons. You have to set ALL to 225.
Did you get it working on this rom? I did what you suggested and it didn't turn on the lights. I've always been able to get it working in CM9. I'm guessing it's possible HO!NO! missed some liblights patches from CM9 or something. I'd like them to work, but I'm really not too horribly concerned, I know where the buttons are by feel anyway.

[Q] Audio-jack problem ONLY on non-stock ROMs

(I thought I'd report the following issue, in case someone else had experienced it or if someone understands why)
On non-stock ROMs, the sound from ANY application (phone, music player, etc...) comes out heavily distorted through the audio jack but NOT through the phone's speaker. This has been verified on CM10.1.3 STABLE and various 4.3 ROMS.
I used to not have this problem and I've been running CM10.1 based ROMs and more recently various 4.3 ROMS without this problem for many months. Recently the problem started so I tried completely wiping, reformating of SD card, and re-installations of ROMs to no avail. Took it to a technician who replaced the whole jack-unit but it didn't help. So...I ODINed back to stock 4.1 and problem was fixed! However, any time I install a non-stock ROM, the problem returns, and only re-ODINing back to a stock ROM fixes it. I've tried 4 or so times....
I've been able to flash Custom 4.3 STOCK-BASED ROMS (based on leaks) without any issue as well, so it's not an issue with flasing "custom ROMs" perse, or with Android 4.3...(thank God! at least I can flash Touchwiz 4.3!)
Does anyone have a clue what's going on here?
Do the roms have a volume or sound enhancement mod do you think? If you flash an older one that used to work fine, does it also exhibit the same problem? If not, maybe try using the audio files from the old Rom in the new one? Probably won't help, but you never know...

As far as I know, there were no audio/volume enhancements in the ROMs I tried (CM 10.1.3 and Carbon ROM) only the usual DSP audio app (which I made sure wasn't running). Yeah, those exact ROMs totally worked in the past without a problem, and it wasn't just my sound files that sounded distorted out of the jack it was any sound from any app (system sounds, phone, etc...)
I might try again with a non-stock ROM if/when Android 4.4 becomes stable, otherwise for the time being I'm happy to stick with TW 4.3 (thanks to you!) It's really awesome!

Can't argue with you there! On a new build now and will get it released when I get my computer back from my daughter! So watch out for that in just a bit!
And in case you didnt see it, there is a 4.4 Rom posted. Looks like it was just updated with more functionality too. You should take a look if you haven't yet.

I tried the 4.4 and unfortunately I the same audio distortion problem returned right away. This was coming from being on the TW 4.3 Leak (#2) from over a week straight with the problem. I researched how to lower the audio jack levels in Cyanogen ROMs and found out about this file: "snd_soc_msm_2x" in the system folder
I messed with that file a bit (with a text editor) and managed to get the distortion to go away by lowering ALL of the headphone outputs by 20%. Problem is that then the volume was really too low to enjoy music on. I tried only 10% lower but then the distortion came back. After that I gave up, but convinced that there's something in the deep CM audio settings which my phone no longer likes, Weird.
BTW, I was able to Nandroid back to my TW 4.3 and the problem disappeared. So at least, there's no need to ODIN if I ever want to try again.
there is information about hacking that file here on xda. i think i saw it in an s4 forum but they got their info from the s3. if i remember or find it again ill let you know. but a quick search might find it as well.

[Q] Lack of TW Roms...Other Options?

After all this time now the only ROMs out there that are TouchWiz Based are
Tweaked
Jedi Master
Right? Is this really the only set of options we have? I need to have WiFi Calling and both of these ROMs seem to have issues... one with WiFi not even wanting to work half the time (Jedi) and the other making it sound like the conversation is taking place inside of a can (Tweaked)... Any other suggestions aside from Odin to Stock??
Look in Android development. There's more then those 2 or you could make us one. DROID premium has a fairly popular AOSP themed and I have a little project*it is in hold until 4.3 though) By the way I ran tweaked for a long time and never had a problem with sound quality. Dwitherell doesn't add in any sound mods except the optional volume boost so there should be no change from stock. Having said that you could try a different kernel or done sound mods, I recommend Viper audio.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Did you report your issue with Tweaked in the tweaked thread and I missed it? If so my apologies - as kintwofan said there was nothing directly done to the rom to alter call quality. Did you use any of the sound mods? What kernel were you using? Was this on wifi calling? Did this happen right away after installing the rom (before any themes/mods)? Did the "can" effect always happen regardless of location (so no matter what tower your phone may be connected to)?

I did not maybe I should though... not certain its a ROM issue. That's why I wanted to try another one. I really like Tweaked so far but the sound is off.

Yeah, personally, I prefer Fly-On. The scripts are pretty simple and they have been around for a while. I run it with XBreeder and have had zero issues.
Beta fix upped.
Fast fast fast.
Added a beta fix for those not on my swap.
Once you have the mod flashed & running. Unzip, Paste, overwrite, set perms to all, reboot.
Initd is in /etc.
Root Explorer free will not set permissions!
Hopping from cell to Cell while driving-all Good.
Added mini guide.
Do you have any idea if the tweaks that broke wife and data in 4.1 stock would be the same that broke wife and data in 4.4?
Do you think your mods would work in 4.4?

? 4.4
I upped the op's mod w/o net mods & sd ver soon.
Sorry. I meant CM11 which is based on 4.4/KitKat
I know, it's a stretch. You're working with stock 4.1.2, but one can always hope, right?
The more I think of it, the more I realize, it was a silly question. PP has a different app for CM roms anyway.

Sd swap "version/work around" up.
Should work on the mb886, xt897 & the Razr HD too.

If it works, (even if data breaks) look at the s98system tweak script it may be the same as the stock. But i can make a networkless mod of that too.
Cm ver up.
I'm running the PP, OP's CM script with CM11 and haven't any data issues yet. But I haven't gone anywhere yet either, so I have had to switch towers. I'll see how it is on the way to work this morning.
If anything, my WiFi seems a little more stable.
Can't say much about overall speed or battery life yet.
VZW in metro Atlanta, if that makes any difference.
