HTC One M8 System Wide Equalizer? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have these headphones that output most of the sound from the left earphone. I've been using PowerAmp for my music and it has an equalizer in which the sound can be focused to either the left or right. I put it to the left as it is the only side that is mainly working. However, this doesn't work for other things such as YouTube or Twitch. I was wondering are there any system wide/level equalizers that can do the same thing and hopefully help me output all the sound through one side. Thanks

Redirect sound to front speaker

Hi folks
I've been using custom roms for some time now and getting pretty handy with tuning my dhd to my liking, but what irritates me is that all sound (music, tts, etc) is getting out of the back speaker (besides the camera) and I can't find an answer how to enable/redirect sound output to the front (call) speaker.
As i'm using miui for some time now i can't remember if the standard sense rom
used the front speaker for output (music, voice commands, etc)
Is there a way to enable that?
Good question. (I've often wondered which speaker the sound is even coming out of.) When watching YouTube, I'd like to have it coming out the front one. Do the speakers have the same output potential? (wattage)
No one knows?
its pretty unlikely that they will be the same power, if it was, htc would have already made use of it by using it aswell as the other speaker when playing music

[Q] Stereo balance adjustment ?

is there any application that controls the stereo balance between left and right speakers of the headset globally ?
The headset's right speaker volume is slightly lower than the left one, I'm already using poweramp to listen to music as it has this option, but I want it to be global not for poweramp only D it really annoys me while watching YouTube videos

Audio Hiss Problems on the One X?

Couldn't see a specific topic on this issue so thought I'd start one up.
In certain situations I'm getting a very noticeable amount of audio hiss when playing sound over headphones via the One X. So far I've tried the following headphones with the following results:-
Apple iPod headphones - low level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Sennheiser HD 457 Open back Headphones - very low level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by a slightly audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Sennheiser MM50 earphones with Mic - high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Sony DR-BT22 Bluetooth Headphones - very high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Is anyone else able to replicate these issues? Is this something that can be fixed in software? The constant hiss and crackle when using my preferred headphones is really starting to annoy me
I'm not getting any hiss with my sennheiser 555s - in fact, its quite transparent at all volumes. There is a slight pop about 1 second after ending a track on any player - stock music app, doubletwist, grooveshark

Noticed this as well at low volume on speech based Podcasts, it's really annoying.
Different headphones seem to filter it out better but with my usual in the ear headphones it is unbearable.
So the One X does not seem to be better than my own SGS2.
Oh well, I was thinking of getting this. Would probably skip it now. I don't have hopes of LG or Huawei or Motorola delivering something to rival this or the SGS3, so I will probably wait for the SGS3.
Yes, I've noticed this too, with my Bose QC 3's. I assumed it was something to do with the noise cancelling on the headphones but maybe it's a fault with the device?

I get a whine on my car speakers that I didn't get on my desire, only when there is no audio playing though

Same problem with my Sennheiser CX300II
I don't know if it's hardware or software...
Got some new headphones this morning (JVC HAFX1X) and with these the hiss is sooooo bad
Same here. It went good untill i plugged phone into the charger. Every 2 minutes it hisses..
Then rebooted phone while charging, problem gone.
Mine is charging now and I'm listening to music for the last 4 hours - I don't hear anything.
Could it depend on the player used?
My headphones do not have any active noise cancellation.
I don't listen to music so I can't comment on that but I do notice an audible pop / crack noise sometimes when a sound is played. It doesn't happen all the time but a good example is when I use Twitter and pull it down to refresh. There are two sound effects that play, one as you pull it down and one as it refreshes. The noise happens after you pull it down for the first sound only. I'm only mentioning it here in case the two are related as I've not seen anyone else mention a pop / crack noise.
Sounds like audio processing thread is being run at too low priority.

Bass boost and slight distortion

Hi guys. Whenever I enable bass boost in any equalizer (such as the Google Play Music app's default one) and play a track using the Google Play Music app, I get slight distortion when listening to the song via the stock Samsung headphones. This happens with even a slight bass boost, but goes away as soon as I remove any bass boost. I tested with 2 different headphones and I always get the same thing when bass boost is enabled. I don't recall this happening on my old HTC EVO 4G LTE phone. Is this normal with this phone? Is this the same issue as the reported audio distortion with certain headphones? One last question and I'll shutup... can anyone recommend a good stock Touchwiz ROM with bloatware removed that includes the European firmware that fixes the headphone distortion issues along with the inclusion of Apps2SD? Thank you!

Bass boost should only be used with headphones that can handle it. Those earbuds that come with the phone are cheap.
i know the """"beats"""" audio never worked with google play music it would always cause crazy distortions
(beats audio isnt realy beats just DSP manager rebranded)

Question Stereo speakers strange sound

So I got the phone yesterday. Very exciting experience to be honest. But there's something that I don't quite understand. When I play a YouTube video, a song or whenever the stereo speakers are used, they make a strange continuous sound or something, it's not loud, it's just there. I don't know if this is the way it works on all these phones, or should I go and change it for another one. Please let me know if all of you guys have this sound of nothing coming from the stereo speakers.
I'm getting the strange sound as well when the speakers are used. Its pretty much there regardless on what volume I'm on (Except 0 volume of course) but it stops when I pause a video/music. Then when I start playing again, the sound starts to come back.

it is dolby atmos problem you don't like that noise , going to sound option and turn off the dolby atmos.
Hmm... No problem at all with my device (stock MIUI 12.0.5.0 Global), with or without Dolby Atmos.
I suggest further testing with apps such this:
Function Generator
I have same problem with my F3, weird noise while using Dolby Atmos on speakers, did not check on headset.
No issue when Atmos is off.
