The delay/latency is entirely depended on what BT Audio Codec is supported by both the phone and the BT Audio device (unless there's something wrong with the ROM).
"AptX" is recommended. Your BT Audio device may have its own app and a setting called something like "Gaming Mode", which would reduce latency.
Behind the Gaming Mode would basically be "AptX Low Latency" or AptX LL.
If you don't have such settings in your earbuds' corresponding app, and nothing is Bluetooth Settings, you can try and check the Developer Options and try and force a Codec..
AOSP ROMs can have random bugs, so the big delay may be just from that ROM. ^^

my earbuds had that gaming mode option , but the problem is when using aosp based it still had huge amount of delay.
had tried switching different codec from developer option but nothing works. i dont know if any other aosp based rom had that delay or not because i had only tried crdroid and one more aosp based which i forgot which one LoL!

Hm. In that case I'd do a backup and try an older version of crDroid or a different AOSP..,..,,,.,,..,,,,,,.,,..,,

I don't know if it is an aosp based rom but i am currently testing this https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...elos-aosp-alioth-aliothin-09-05-2022.4392649/. Bluetooth audio lag is very low even lower than miui based roms.

[Q] Sound Problems in Custom Roms

i have a problem in every custom rom i tried (besides the rear camera bug):
the sound in some games is crackling. in hitman go it's only sometimes when a sound is played, in the walking dead it's really bad, there's only crackling and no real sound, it's unplayable. i messed a little with the dsp settings, but to no avail. if i plug earphones in it's the same. this appears on all of the latest nightlies and weeklies drom slimkat, cm11, infected and standard builds. again like the camera bug, it's not present in stock roms like LRS.
could someone who's running one of the latest nightlies of those roms test that please? walking dead season 1 is free to download.
thank you!

Hey mate,
I'm on 4.4.2 Commotio at the minute, its stable as heck, very fast, front back camera work. And external SD card doesn't do a runner (lol)
Their is a sound problem though sound is great for most part but now and again it buzzes for a second or so. I have told dev the problem and awaiting reply....
I have seen this problem reported about all CM/AOKP based ROMs and as far as I can tell its a CPU overload.
A kernel issue a guess...
Maybe changing governr to Interactive fixes the problem.
I love how the default (on demand) puts it in deep sleep on the home screen when you leave it.
Must be like that in most ROMs I guess.

Bluetooth audio issues

The best advice we could ever get on XDA.
Anyway, this doesn't solve the issue, I had the same thing on Resurrection Remix and Lineage OS both on stock and GUYVER kernels.

Try a rom that isn't based on LOS...
Hiiiiiii, right just wanted to say that I've been having the same problem with my sennheisers and the best tom for Bluetooth in my experience is Xiaomi EU. Hope this helps
Don't block the line of sight from the phone to the headphones with any body part, then it should be better. It's a normal issue of bluetooth, depending on the built in Class of bluetooth hardware.

aptX HD / LDAC and custom ROMs?

Hello people,
i'll be getting an OP5T soon and even though OxygenOS has a favorable reputation i'll certainly end up flashing a custom ROM anyway. however, there's a nagging question, as hinted at in the title, that doesn't seem to have been addressed anywhere, or at least i couldn't find anything searching the forums and it's never mentioned in respective ROM threads. the OP5T running stock Oreo OOS supports both aptX HD and LDAC, if i'm not mistaken, but do custom ROMs generally support those codecs as well?
my current phone is a Z1 Compact running one of the last official CM nightlies released back then and those didn't support aptX, which the stock ROM did, afaik. i don't really have experience in Android customization but from what i've read in various threads, just unlocking the bootloader can inevitably trash various things like DRM keys and camera functionality. the advanced BT audio codecs are important to me, so i need to know what i can and can't do in order to preserve them.
any input on this?
I think any Android 8 based rom support these codecs
I have a Xperia z3c with carbon rom (Android 8.1) and it support these codecs

first things first, thanks for the input.
that does sound promising. i mean, if the codecs didn't work on a custom ROM no matter what, because BL unlocking erases/invalidates the libs or something, surely the dev would've removed them from the selection.
i've read about the matter with Oreo, its native support for all BT audio codecs (whatever that actually means) and Sony's LDAC donation to AOSP. though apparently there was some confusion, as all codecs appeared in the settings selection even though they didn't actually work due to lacking libraries. and while LDAC is part of AOSP and technically free to use by any OEM, it still requires a device certification from Sony.
so... there seems to be a difference between "supported" and "functional". you don't happen to have a pair of compatible BT headphones at hand for testing, do you? your Z3C should at least give you regular aptX, as that's what it shipped with, and perhaps LDAC

My z3c's stock rom doesn't support ldac but with a custom rom ldac is functional

thanks for the screenshot, that was a nice confidence booster. i went ahead and flashed Zoe ROM, can confirm that both aptX HD and LDAC still work. so unlocking the bootloader doesn't touch the libraries, which i guess are located in a partition that you don't usually wipe, and every ROM based on 8.0 or later should support the codec selection

Does Lenovo P2 supports HQ sound over bluetooth?

Hey,
I'm currently looking for a smartphone with long battery life and support of HQ sound (LDAC preferred).
I found some ROMs with Android 8.0 and I heard that this version of OS supports LDAC. Does it mean that when I install one of these ROMs, I will be able to use LDAC?

LDAC is included in AOSP since Oreo so you should be able to use it on every 8+ ROM until someone will remove it from his ROM. It is visible in my codec selection menu on LOS15.1 but I can't test it for you since I'm not in possession of any wireless headphones. I believe that you should look for information and how it works on other phones threads too, not only here. There is possibility that Lineage doesn't support this codec itself since stock haven't supported it but I'm not sure about that since LDAC is part of AOSP unlike AptX for example where your phone needs to be certified to allow developers to include this codec in official builds.
Basically you can add any existing bluetooth audio codec to your phone's ROM. There's not any hardware requirements besides bluetooth so I believe that you should be able to use it.

Question Regarding AOSP and Dolby Atmos (or "Am I indeed limited to Xiaomi.eu?")

I've done few searches in the forum, just to affirm my thoughts, but I found only the points that lead to the other title of the thread, but I'll ask this frankly and clearly:
As a hardcore Arcaea player:
Am I indeed limited to Xiaomi.eu?
Or it could happen that an AOSP ROM can feature MIUI Dolby Atmos?
I'm pretty sure this is a "pick your poison" situation, as going AOSP (crDroid, to be frank, many thanks raystef66!) kills Atmos but going MIUI instead screws the UX, but I'm kind of unsure of which to pick.
If unsure, even with Moto Audio and external equaliser "Wavelet" kind of "patching" the audio quality a bit, it does not help the audio latency resulted from missing the proper audio drivers (a stark difference of 142ms just from losing Atmos), to which Arcaea is extremely sensitive, enough to urge a switch.
I'm sure I'll get some words saying I could just try this myself, and I'll agree beforehand; I just need to know how to manage a custom ROM and I could figure out MIUI Atmos. And then the licences for the ROMs, including my current selection.
If there's nothing I can do about this, feel free to autolock the thread if you must along with a Xiaomi.eu recommendation, since it just will be yet another "Dolby Atmos" thread on top of the existing pile...
alioth 12.5.6
crDroid ver8.4 (Android 12.1) 2022.04.08
TWRP 3.6.1-unofficial
(Special note: If I must be rooted for any potential solution, I could use methods to bypass CrackProof in Princess Connect! Re: Dive since I am also hardcore in that one. As of now CrackProof does not complain with the current crDroid setup, since I refused to install Magisk until required for good reason.)
EDIT: Auto-converts to emoji, yikes. I may re-edit again as I test.

Moto Audio sadly. It doesn't help--the latency is still there.
The problem is specifically about MIUI Dolby Atmos.
Hey, have you found a solution?
I'm in the same boat. Have you found an Non-MIUI Custom ROM with good Dolby Atmos?
It sucks that no one has ported MIUI Dolby Atmos yet. I wonder how much effort this would take. And if the audio driver or MIUI Dolby Atmos is proprietary.
I used to be on ArrowOS (which is lovely clean btw!), but I cannot deal with Default Sound. I got wayy too used to MIUI Dolby Atmos in Video Mode. But holy shít man, MIUI itself sucks major *ss...
I'm now flashing Xiaomi.eu 13 Stable until I find an AOSP ROM with actually good Dolby Atmos. Not the trash Moto Dolby or Razer Moto.

It seems the reply above you has the same thoughts so I'm probably better off shaving some gigabytes sticking to Xiaomi.eu until MIUI Dolby Atmos is good to go...

How about trying ainur magisk mod? After trying it myself on miui to compare I never wanna use Dolby again.
Personally it's the best one I ever used - audio becomes much more crisp. It's distorted on miui implementation of dolby so I really don't think you'll get any further by yourself...

The problem isn't the crisp audio, but rather the resulting offset in Arcaea; an astounding 142ms latency. I kind of got the audio "patched" in crDroid with Wavelet before switching to Xiaomi.eu, but after I switched I noticed the horrid difference in audio latency in crDroid, gone/fixed in Xiaomi.eu. That's where the problem is.

This is what it's like on gsi
You will have to figure out how to adjust the app to use full screen tho... And the bottom but of screen is taken by the gesture pill.
Both are fixable via magisk modules
This is not headphones BTW , I have no idea what it's like with them
Another worthy mention is latest unofficial lineage 19.1 or try arrow tho idk if either stack well against audio latency... I'd try lineage tbh, I feel like it's more likely to be better audio wise and if the touch actually got fixed on the latest release like the dev said it probably should be decent.
For me the only problem with AOSP Sound effects were the Sound itself.
I didn't notice the latency being a problem, I didn't focus on that, but it may actually be a problem if you say so.
I use Bluetooth Headphones which naturally have a bit of latency, even on AptX Codex. As far as games are concerned I only play games like Dead By Daylight Mobile etc..
Dolby Atmos is a Surround Sound feature (Spacial Sound feature) and in my opinion Razer and Moto Dolby sounded like they *try* to make it spacial but instead make it sound virtualised. As if the Sound-bitrate got reduced.
MIUI Dolby is miles better, it can make music sound like it's more around your head (and not inside your head), when you select the Video-Mode. It's more immersive and emotional.
I also tried Wavelet and its paid features but I still wasn't happy.
With MIUI Dolby distortion is no problemo, at least for me. xd
