Audio fade out during notification sound? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Out of all of the android phones I've had, some have faded the music currently playing when a notification happens (like how the iPhone handles it) and some, like the GS4, cut the audio off and resumes it once the notification sound finishes. I much prefer the audio fading while the notification plays, is there any way to make this happen, or is it ROM-dependent? I can't imagine something like that is baked into TouchWiz, and moreso dictated by the Android framework itself.

[Q] papertoss sound when unlocking my desire HD

hi there,
we all know the game paper toss.
when you start the program you hear some noise on the background, and a door open and close.
when i slide the slider down to unlock the screen, my htc desire hd makes this sound.
(it IS the actual sound of paper toss, because i compared them).
i've removed the sd card - no difference
i've removed paper toss - no difference
i've reinstalled paper toss - no difference
i've chosen a different skin - no difference
i've checked the sound options - no difference
i've turned the unlock/lock sound on and off - no difference
the only thing i haven't done is a factory reset.
and i really don't wanna do this, because i'll lose so many settings and options.
does anybody know what this is?
why is my phone making that stupid sound from paper toss?
Did you install gingerbread with sense 2.1? The sound you may be hearing is the weather app sound. If unsure go to the weather app and try the demo and see if you get the same sound.
i hope i get the same sound.. lol..

Apollo UI attempt

Hi guys,
I thought some of you might enjoy the Apollo theme I've created on my Omnia 7 with the help of the Screen Capture, Supreme Shourtcut and Advanced Config homebrew apps.
The only editing I've done here is replacing the people tile to protect my privacy All the pictures have been taken from my phone.
You'll notice I've sacrificed having a live Call tile. Since you get an readout of missed calls on the lock screen I didn't consider it that great a loss.
Let me know what you lot think...
EDIT: Just noticed that the screen capture for some reason hasn't captured the dark purple I have set as the home screen menu background Well anyway, that's there!
First look - messy
But then I think actually using it on a phone wouldn't be that messy.
My reaction towards this is neutral.
Takes away all of the aesthetic appeal of wp7.
I think it looks great!
Microsoft reallllllllly needs to allow more customization with colours in Apollo. In the worst way.
They need to change how notifications are displayed. The notification bar sucks right now. And i hate the fact that it disappears and there's no way to make it permanent.

[Q] Two questions: Color saturation and google books text to voice

Still learning about my new toy.
Is there an app/tweak to increase color saturation on the display? It seems a little bland compared with my galaxy s3.
Also, supposedly google books will read books out loud, but some setting somewhere needs to be turned on? Also, how do you actually add your own predownloaded media to the various libraries?
(books, movies, music)
The help that came with the library was sort of worthless.
Samsung's are over saturated. Every screen looks bland compared to them but I don't believe the saturation is a natural duplication.

Missing Equalizer in Note 10 plus

Anyone knows why the equalizer for the frequency, bass treble are missing? It was so useful in Note 9
Im trying to translate from my swedish note 10+: Settings -> Sound and vibration -> Advanced sound settings -> Sound quality and effects -> Equalizer
Yes it is still there but only with preset equalizer. Now we can't change the frequency bass anf treble
Did you click custom?
Yes but no bass why Treble adjustment.
Can't find it either. I'm guessing you mean those two 'wheels' you could turn for quick changing?
When I choose custom I got them, but not the wheels:
So basically only the advanced custom equalizer? I am OK with that, as I never used the wheels anyway. Always used the custom tab to adjust the equalizer.
I am not sure I am the only one, but on Samsung phones, adjusting the equalizer for most of the db settings actually made the sound far quieter. The only way to get the most sound was to leave the equalizer almost the same everywhere but maybe the middle to settings one could adjust a bit. Has made me wonder if the DAC in the Samsung phones is simply trying to not allow people to hurt their hearing by cranking up certain bandwidths in the custom equalizer settings. Not a huge deal, but kind of disappointing that a phone this expensive doesn't have a kick ass DAC and even normal equalizer settings to play with.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have the same complain and worst, this level decrease affect Bluetooth too, so, isn't a DAC thing but maybe, a normalization setting kicking in when a particular frequency is boosted....
How I miss the old "two wheels" to adjust EQ like the one in Note9, I think it worked much better than the multiband equalizer in S10/Note10

For music get the paid for Poweramp player. Excellent equalizer and much more.
This is the one you want to handle audio thru put.
It has a lot of settings and will take a considerable amount of time to set up all it's features.
Completely customizable.
Export and save settings. If reloaded on a new OS it will reaquire it's library in under a minute (I have over 6000 wav files organized as albums). It automatically rebuilds playlists as long as you saved the settings ie SD card etc.
Developer continues to support and update it.
Trick stuff, it's sweet
As this old thread is woken up, I might add that the old wheels where OP was looking for are still there...but not via sound menu in settings though:
When changing volume with the rockers, press the two arrows at bottom of appearing slider on screen. The Pop-up window will expand to allow various volume settings. At top-right the equaliser icon can be pressed, which opens an again a pop-up window with equaliser settings, which includes a toggle at top (4th of right) to chose between the frequency sliders or the "two wheels" (bass-trebble and instrument-voice).
My description may suggest it is a quite a hassle, but once used and preference set it is quite ok.
