Mi A2 Lite Aptx support - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

Does this phone have AptX support enabled and working? A2 received aptx support in one of the updates this year, I wonder if A2 lite has it?

The option is there in the Developer's menu. I did not test it though.

What is aptx?

This option is always there so, unfortunately it does not indicate whether aptx is built-in and active.

Ok. Didnt know.

I don't know, but it has AAC-Support. If I use my BT-Headset (no Aptx-support) the phone chooses AAC-codec.
I don't know if this is correctly: https://www.bluetoothcheck.com/d/xiaomi-mi-a2-lite-redmi-6-pro

AAC should hit the same quality as aptX and it's available on the Mi A2 Lite.

I have no idea about Android N, but O does.
Pixel only uses the SBC codec until android O. O supports aptX and a few other high definition Bluetooth codecs.
This I know. But doesn't help the issue of no log. My v10 also will not make a log with option checked and I k ow it supports those codecs.
On Android O....is there an Auto detecting codec setting? or if u manually select codec to use, say LDAC...and if the device does not support it, while it fall back to AptX or SBC?
I ask for anyone on the dev preview to try this and report on it.
I have Sony headphones that support LDAC...but my car headunit only supports AptX.
So would be good to know if i need to switch the setting based on device.

It's an auto detect, as my car uses a low level codec, whist my headphones use AptX and it switches itself mate

Still would be great to have a way to detect and see what codec is in use.
No idea why the V10 or Pixel won't produce the log file.

My Moto X Pure has the files for aptx and aptX hd....but not LDAC. I can confirm via the log and wireshark method that both Aptx/HD work.
I don't think the Moto rom and the Pixel is ASOP based...thats a separate form of android like CM and MIUI....i think. could be wrong...been too long...lol.

Huawei dropped aptx support in mate 20 x after the update ?!

I can't find aptx support after the update . Does anyone knows how to deal that ?!
Same problem.
I wrote to the Huawei service. They will fix this with an update.
I don't know when

think huawei stop APTX support or subscription with Qualcomm.
as of now, mate20x is not a officially supported device
https://www.aptx.com/products?field_product_brand_tid=290
no mate 20x in the official aptx website.
The Service mailed me that they want to phone with me.
That was 5 days ago...
Very strange behaviour
So has this been dropped or not because there some people for example,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-x/how-to/huawei-mate-20-x-evr-l29-emui-9-1-t3924180/page37
Are saying that it still shows aptX in the Bluetooth settings at the end of the device name while connected?
That might be another case but i can confirm that it is not there in the developer options . If you have a sony headphone as an example , it will connect to the LDAC codec and you can't change it out there also I used a tool to check for it and it wasn't there

Question Poco F3 / LDAC

Hi everyone,
Does the POCO F3 have the LDAC codec support for Hi-Res áudio?
Thanks

I'm curious did you make an xda account just to start a thread to ask a question? I've noticed everyday now that about 20 people a day start new threads and I wondered why. Xda was developed for people who are into development and want to flash Roms and root their phones.
To answer your question it should you need to turn on developer options and search for Bluetooth codecs. I don't have my Poco f3 yet I just ordered it today otherwise I would tell you how to turn on developer options but it's usually go into settings find your build number and tap on it 7 times and it'll say turned on developer options. I believe the poco f3 is in settings find your MIUI version number and tap it 7 times and then find additional settings and you'll see developer options now. Look for the Bluetooth codecs but here's the bad news. You can only use them on headphones that support the ldac codec the system will over ride your settings and use the headphones settings. Good luck
@Techguy777, you are right! I was so frustrated not finding solutions that I had to be one more these irritanting guys that make a XDA account just to place a thread. I understand you and I'am honestly sorry! Please, accept my apologies
I'am in developer mode since the first day I have this monster phone. Yeah, it's a beast!
In developer mode, the LDAC codec among others is there but It doesn't mean that poco f3 can use it. Sometimes we found in developer mode options or settings that are not usable because they are not still finished and need a final touch in a future firmware upgrade. The POCO F3 has support for AptX HD codec (see specs) but it isn't avaible today. We will have it in a future flash.
My earphones are the Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro, and they have LDAC Hi-Res codec. All I need now, is a music provider (like Tidal) with hi-res audio streaming service and if the POCO F3 has really the LDAC codec support..... BOOOOOM!!!
Finally, I found elsewhere, LDAC codec is present in any phone that support Android 8 or later. Don't now if is true but I place my bet
Thank you for your king size support
Hi, according to my experience of using Sony WH-1000XM3, Redmi K40 supports LDAC, which should be the same model as POCO F3, but I didn't have a chance to try if it support Hi-Re audio. Hope my experience will be helpful to you.

Sorry to butt in so late but, the Poco F3 does not officially support LDAC. If you force it on via developer options or, in the Android Bluetooth settings, it will only use "Best Effect" LDAC at 360 kbps, which apparently has less clarity than SBC. If you try to set it to "Optimised for Audio Quality" in Developer Options, it just reverts straight back. I ran Bluetooth diagnostic software on my phone and, LDAC was not listed as a selectable codec.

I'd never touched developer options

before, but LDAC work perfectly with my Soundcore Life Q35 and if I choose "Optimised for Audio Quality" stays on Audio Quality. I use Apple Music lossless audio.

I think I found a way for Android with the Sony XM4, I am not completely sure because I did not have an app to measure the bitrate but there is some clues that shows it works. I use the french app so the name of parameters could be bad translated.
1. You need to download the Sony Music Center App (it is an app different from Sony Headphones Connect).
2. Connect your headphones to your phone with bluetooth.
3. Go to the Sony Music Center App. You will see your heaphone in the list of connected device.
4. Click on the three dots in the upper right corner and click on Parameters.
5. Click on bluetooth parameters and click playback quality
6. Choose priority to quality
You can check that the maximum bitrate is set by default by looking at the developper menu in android parameters. If you look at it the LDAC codec automaticaly toggle to 990kbps.
I advice you to restart your phone after that.
However, you need to reopen music center to reactivate 990kbps mode everytime you reconnect your headphone.
Hey folks, what do I need to do to enable ldac for my Poco F3 with Sony headphones?
Use Sony's app
How to activate LDAC on a POKO F3 phone, Sony WH-H900N on ear 2 headphones. Via Music Center error in the screenshot, Music Center also cannot activate, if you select LDAC, then the settings are reset.

Yes, the PA supports AptX. It's hard to tell if it supports your device because you haven't written anything about it.

It supports aptX Classic/HD (which is completely expected as it's now in AOSP), but does it support aptX Adaptive? Not HD and not Classic, but Adaptive.
I will most likely run it on Nothing Phone (1)
No AptX in PA on Nothing Phone (1).

Oh, I guess it's in beta still. But no aptX at all is funny because AOSP supports it. Maybe that's because offload is turned off?
Anyway, is there any device which supports aptX Adaptive in PA? Seems that only Qualcomm SoCs would have it, so the fact that PA is based on CAF makes it plausible.
