I truly appreciate everything the devs do. I do have a request, and from what I have read I am not the only one. Would it be possible to get one of the new kernels(ed01 based) without voodoo sound. I know it is an attempt to make the audio better but it adds a lot of pops and crackling to all audio playback. So devs if you are reading this can you please give us an edify kernel without sound? Thank you.
You can download Voodoo Control App and there should be an option in the app for Original, which should set everything back to default.
Thank you for the help but it appears to be the kernel itself. Even set to original it pops and clicks randomly during music. This did not happen with the older kernels.

Hey there folks. I'm looking for some type of script or adb command to over-ride the headphones for every sound when they're plugged in. When using cyanogenmod I found a CM setting, under the sound sub menu, that allows me to over-ride the headphones on particular sounds. This makes me believe there has to be a way to do it for every sound including music and phone calls. Any insight or direction would he appreciated. Thanks

Settings->CM Settings->Sound Settings. I think this is what you might be looking for and it's on all Froyo Vanilla ROMs that are CM based. Check the section titled "Note." It says all of those settings are applied only when headphones are being used. They seem to be what you're looking for. Hope this helps.

I appreciate your response but unfortunately that's what I already do lol with those settings I can enable alarms, notifications, and ringtone. My hope is that since cyanogenmod has those options, there has to be a way to apply that to the few things I still can't hear unless my headphones are in. This would include any/all music apps, hearing who Calls me without having to use speaker phone, and game/app sounds/music. I know my speaker can still play music because one day I was listening to music(with headphones of course!) And got a call. So I unplug my headphones and pick up the call n press speakerphone. Well, after the call when I hit end, I heard a split second of the song I was listening too beforehand on the speaker. That gives me hope that I can eventually overcome this. PS.- none of the headset overide apps in the market work.

This almost seems like it would be in something like spare parts. I'll see what I can do.

The search feature was not working otherwise I would of hopefully found this answer. But is there anyway possible to make the headphone out sound louder? I use the g tab for my everyday listening in car and it is much quieter than my old ipod. If anyone knows of any solutions to this please help.
Thanks yall!
You could try using the attached DSP Manager to raise output levels. It works with many builds of Android on phones, but I don't have the tablet handy to test.
Edit: Others on the forum have reported loss of sound after tinkering with DSP Manager and had to reload their ROM. Not much testing has been done so proceed at your own risk.

just tried it and it says "there is a problem parsing the package"
Thanks though. Anyone else?
I just wanted to say that I tried dsp manager a while back, as I had it on my Evo as well with no issues.
Only after tinkering with it for a few minutes and a reboot or two i did in fact lose all sound. I wouldnt mess with it on the tab, unless theres a modified version for us.
Good thing for backups!
thanks for the heads up
anyone else have any ideas?
I have a Galaxy S Vibrant 2.1 and ive noticed that the audio is out of sync. Its not only with videos and games but the phone entirely. Even when i press the volume buttons theres an audio delay. Anyone know how to fix this?
Note: My phone is rooted and i even installed the lagfix in hopes of fixing the audio problem but didnt work
You may want to try and flash a kernal with voodoo sound that may help. Also think about updateing the phone to at least to android 2.2.
There was alot of problems with 2.1, just a suggestion.

Are there any of these out there? ? Well.. not that I've found, and why is it not more of an issue? Am I the only one that makes calls on headphones? I love aosp but unfortunately this is a deal breaker for me since I can't hear very good to start with, plus the other person can't hear me..
I know I have posted this multiple times in multiple threads but I have tried everything I can think of to fix this problem but as of this point I have not found anything yet. At least not anything that will stick it after a reboot. Alsamixer does fix the problem with a few adjustments but it won't stick, obviously a system file resets it at boot.
Last night I found a file that configures the sound and does stick but I have yet to find the correct configuration. The file is toltecdma found in system/etc/sound. Any help is deeply appreciated.
The only one is the latest carbon ROM find it in original development. It has voodoo support built in just download voodoo sound from market . Ill pm you the link.

Thank you, does it also increase Mic volume on the headset in call. Every time I've used an aosp rom my wife has a lot of trouble hearing me and she has very good hearing.

Well, it's not a "fix" but I have finally "worked around" my problem. Using tasker and some alsa_amixer scripts I can now make/receive calls and be assured that I will have loud headphone volume and a loud mic so the other party hears me loud and clear, and just in case I have a tasker shortcut set up that will run the script with a click.
I am now happy enough with the volume that I can finally run the aosp roms as daily drivers.
I also boosted my system wide sounds by editing the /system/ect/sound/toltecdma file. It sticks after a reboot but when a call is initiated the in call settings are reset, hence the need for tasker.
Maybe someday I will figure a true fix for this but for now problem solved.
My assumption is that there is an xml that needs to be decompiled/recompiled (maybe one of the alsa files in /system/bin) to be edited, or the tiny hal configuration needs to be changed prior to building the rom. Not sure, but these are probably my next steps.

Do you care to share your settings I have alsa mixer also but I don't mess with that stuff. Voodoo sound helps but mic could be louder . I appreciate it if you can pm me

So, I've used Viper4Android for a time, but it has become so buggy that even running the app is a hit or miss (sometimes wouldn't even process the audio even after freezing AudioFX). That being said, I am looking for other audio mod alternatives.
As the topic implies, what are the audio mods that you guys are using and tell me the reason(s) why. I am interested to know. Thanks!
Hi, i personally use viper4android and i feel its really good, i had some ringer volume cracking issues when using stock rom, but everything works fine on miui. If you want alternative, i suggest Dalby Atmos, but it has less functions than viper4android.
