Hello guys, first I'm german and speak bad english
But I have a question. I want to buy a Xperia play, I currently use the W705 and it has an awesome player with clear bass etc.
I changed some things on my W705, like custom acoustics, other Display / Cam drivers...
So is it possible to mod a Xperia play in things like that? For me it's important to have a very good music player with good bass.
Or easier: Which modifications are possible?

Well if you mean audio related mods i think there's only one at the moment which is the bass enhancer

Which some people say work, others don't
IMO you should stick with the 2.3.3 firmware as the xloud was really loud without distortion and the latest firmware 2.3.4 reduces overall volume to stop the speakers from busting
Talking about music players, the stock player has louds of equaliser presets as well as a good clear sound overall, winamp pro has a built in equalizer but poweramp is the best at sound altering
So... I am sorry if this has been discussed, but I just found an equalizer in the native music player. Everyone keeps recommending volume+ to boost the sound or a third party equalizer to get better sound, but if you go into Play Music and turn a song on, you get the screen with the album art and whatnot. I noticed the three dots at the top of the screen, so I tapped it. A menu appeared with the following options: Sound Effects, Show Options, Make instant Mix, and Settings. So I tapped on Sound effects. And there it was! I tried doing a search on equalizers, but the only results that came up were posts that had "equal" in the posting. I am not rooted, and I am completely stock. Just a heads up if anyone is irritated with the sound. Also, bass boost and 3D effect only work if you have headphones or speakers plugged in.
I didn't know if it would be better to put this thread here or in apps and themes. So I chose here.
Now if I could only find a way that makes the sound effect for incoming notification NOT completely stop or pause the music for the duration of the notification, I would be so happy!!
Sick find, didn't know about this thanks.

Yeah I just discovered this too a few days ago. It works FANTASTIC. but too bad it only effects Google music and not the entire phone audio.
Dsp manager is better. And when installed takes the place of music fx.

Not there
Anyone have any idea why this would disappear or how to force it to be there? I have a One XL running the viper rom and beats audio isn't working (yes, I've plugged in headphones) which I don't really care about, I just want this equalizer. I'm assuming the presence of beats (which is useless since it's not working) is preventing the equalizer but I don't know enough about this to be sure.

Hi guys! I'm kind of a music freak. Yeah I admit...I want to have a good listening experience. There are some problems though. I would like one or more of you experts to guide me. We have "Awesome Beats" and "Noozxoide". We have some mods made originally for Sony, and so on. Today I use HTC One X endeavoru.
I wonder: what would be the easiest way to test them, and combinations of them? I've noticed that some of them aren't compatible together and sometimes it sounds just terrible. Other times the phone gets nuts and nothing works. For example: yesterday I couldn't change volume in any of my music players; if I did, it shut right down. What custom rom I use doesn't matter me very much as long as I get an overall good experience. So, my questions, and hopefully, the beginning of a usefull thread starts like this, and, thank you in advance, you are great!:fingers-crossed::
1. Optimal music player for the audiophile, and optimal for the noob who don't want to config too much.
2. Mods, combos, APK or flashable? Roms that allready have and give ultimate sound experience.
3. How to temperally disable players, mods or whatever, so that one don't interfere with the ones you want to use.
My HOX is running the latest 4.2.2 ICJ build with XMkernel. Haven't flashed any sound mods.
1)Best player for me is definitely PowerAmp. Nice clean and organised interface. However if you like tweaking then have a look at Neutron Player.
2) Not really, I just downloaded Noozxoide and run my equalising through that
3) Not really necessary except I had to disable the built in app "MusicFX" for the Noozxoide app to work.
Hope this helps!

Yes, I have the same configuration myself right now, but original kernel. Is XMkernel to prefer? Well the sound is really good and I found out that I should go to settings - apps and clear and stop players that I don't use for the moment. Can you get to configure Nooxxoide thru Poweramp or do you have to do it the long way? I have some trouble too make Noozxoide do job, I mean some features work whole for example the manual settings of the EQ

For sound quality, not really necessary. Well to get Poweramp to work with Noozoxide you have to go into Poweramp Settings - Audio - Advanced Tweaks - and uncheck "Direct Volume Control". Then disable Poweramp's EQ, tone and limit.
Beats Audio on CM
Lately I've become a fan of the beats audio that came on my HOX but i've also taken a liking to CM10 is there anyway to put beats audio and the sense music player onto CM 10?

Well, I tried that and get the EQ I want, but I can't, like in ordinary player, customize it. I havet to leave poweramp and go to the EQ. And when, like my ”awesome beats” the EQ is flashed in the system you can't reach it from ”outside". Oh yeah. I have AC!D music mod to. Also built in ICJ.

I've tried both Awesome Beats and Noozxoide on AOSP ROMs and quite frankly I didn't like any of them. I'm a huge audiophile myself (and a music producer) so all that did the job for me was tuning DSP equalizer myself.
Another recent thing I've tried and I quite liked the results (although, the sound is not as amped as having Beats enabled, but it got both ups and downs.. downs obviously being somewhat lower loudness, the ups being way cleaner and natural sound, and no distortions by the overamplification of having Beats enabled) is that I've simply flashed Walkman app from "SONY Xperia Z Walkman Clear Audio+, Movies Album & BE 2" which comes with mods, but I didn't flash any of the mods, just Walkman alone, and remove apk's that caused me force closes and errors.
Once Walkman app is flashed, DSP starts misbehaving, but kind of in a good way - the changes applied in Equalizer aren't as aggressive anymore and allows for much finer tuning, achieving the great sound described above, while still being able to bleed your ears with loudness.

Well, that sounds interesting! Guess I'll find the links by googeling. What rom are you on, and what player do you use? What quality do you havet on the music. I use to have flac or in worst case, 320-mp3. Often when you talk to audiophiles they try to convince you that a clean sound s Wright. For me the right thing is when the listener really enjoys the music. Personally I prefer a deep, pretty strong bass without loosing too much of the middle and high frequences. A good sound is what you think is a good sound. Thank you! Be shure I will try this out and come back with respons.
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

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.

Hi friends,
I'm a music lover and I'm near to unlock my phone bootloader, then my question is about the best of this phone: Equalizer and Walkman APP.
Is there any rom (except stock based roms) where i can use the stock equalizer and walkman? I've tried other equalizers and don't have the same quality.
I can use Google Music too but uses a lot of batery in lastest versions, and don't fix the equalizer problem because uses the phone equalizer.
For example, if i want to use Paranoid 4.4.2, can i use the Sony equalizer and walkman app?.
Thanks!!

Thanks for reply, but don't like that equalizer because when you change a band all others are affected, then is too hard to get the same sound of Sony Equalizer (in about 3 day of changes i didn't got), and sometimes i've got random distortion of sound (too many times)...
It would be good to do a port. It's a shame that i don't know how to port apps.
Greetings!!
