sorry if this question is outdated.. but do we now have a rom or a kernel that fixes the bluetooth sound quality issue over ace? i know some models still dont have fixes for that issue but I'm pushing my luck.. because I'm really tired of bringing my old nokia phone so I can use my bluetooth stereo headset for a better quality sound.. thanks in advance guys
My sound is perfect?? It matters more on the Bluetooth headset itself and its compatibility

no it's not about compatibility.. have tried my bluetooth stereo headset to other non android phones and it gives a clear output.. but when i try it to android phones it gives a crappy sound (metallic or echoing sounds).. have tried it with xperia and s2.. again Ive read about this issue from other threads.. Im just pushing my luck if this has been fixed already via kernels ..

Hey guys. I own a Samsung Galaxy S II and is currently running Resurrection Remix on it. I so cool rom, however I would very much like to improve the audio quality so I can hear better. Is there any way to tweak the quality? It is very important to me, since I have some hearing loss :-(

If you're running resurrection, try changing settings in dsp manager. You can select headphones, bluetooth and speaker settings and tweak different things there. Might help if you're using bluetooth / headphones.. Hope it helps!
Try a Music Player off the Play Store, PowerAmp is a good choice. Many different tweaks such as bass, treble, increased volume booster. Also try a different pair of headphones, maybe in ear ones that can produce a better quality sound than say open backed over ear headphones.

Hey guys
Thanks for your answer, but I'm talking about the call quality when speaking with others thru my phone
no help there? :/
Try the KH3 modem. It seems to be the best samsung could come up with. Has better call clarity and faster gps fix, does not heat up the phone compared to other modems.
You should really state what you are actually looking for in your first post. It could have meant audio quality out of the phones speaker, audio quality through headphones, or in your case, audio quality when speaking to somebody.
Anyway, as suggested, try a different modem. Here is a link to a thread with all modems: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
Modems work across all OS's so don't worry about matching them. I use the Baseband I9100NELP2, but what is good for me mightn't be good for you. The idea of modems is to test them for better signal, call quality, GPS, download speeds etc.

I have the powerbeats by beats by dre
The issue I have is that if I don't have music playing (I use PowerAmp pro) I can make and receive calls fine although the volume button etc doesn't work through the head phones. My biggest issue is that if I have music playing I cannot hear or speak throuh the headset. I need to use the phone. I am running Jellybean, international S3 I9300

The box says iphone and android. Blasted LIARS!!!!
Oh well, that's a $129 down the drain. Didn't sound that much better either if at all...........
The issue with there being so many Android OEM's is that they have different standards for the headset jack and ect. I think that the Powerbeats only work with HTC devices
Yeah this is definately a bummer. The talk control thingy was not working on Some of the old htc devices but a updated kernal fixed that and I had total control talk via handsfree and also skip back forward music etc.
Can this issue with beats headphone just lye with a kernal issue or is it definately headphones compatability issue with s3 . definately not android issue. Buttons issue was fixed due to the p2pjack kernal for desire hd.
I can on listen and control my music through headphones but not able to accept calls or talk.

Here is a funny thing.
I had a custom ROM and I've since flashed to stock. No change
I have a co worker with a stock S3 running 4.1.1 and it works perfect both my beats and her beats. I try it in a Note 2 with custom ROM works perfect. I try it in a Note 2 with stock ROM works perfect. I try it with another stock s# running 4.1.1 doesn't work.........
We're suppose to get in a new batch today, I will try the headsets with that and if it works I will list my device as faulty and swap out.
Every other headset works on my phone except beats.
OK, I think I've narrowed it down. It's a connection issue. I found that if I play with how far in I put the ead set piece into the phone determines whether it works or not. I found that with the piece inserted maybe a millimeter before being completly in it works........
None of the methods work for me. PowerBeats on ATT S3 4.1.1 I hate this so much. They work perfectly on my work phone! Blackberry 9900. Are you kidding me... works on blackberry but not the S3....?
Anyone find a trick or fix? Connections on stock Samsung headset and PowerBeats match up perfectly.
hello guys
i wanted to ask you if anyone hears the bad bluetooth sound quality from the htc one x+.
maybe i'm just to audiophile, but the sound on (good) bluetooth speakers sound terrible.
i read alot about it and found out a few things:
-i heard the issue is in the so called "bluetooth bitpool setting". manufacturers always this setting to low, so there are no problems with the connectivity, but the sound quality is bad. so the sound quality of the stock rom is really, really bad. i'm talking about listening music. specially the high frequencies are sharp and crashing...it sounds like a very bad mp3 file.
now there are custom rom's with fixed bitpool settings. i tried out a few ones and there is actually just one rom that haven't this bad sound:
cyanogen mod 10. all the oder rom's have this sound problem: cyanogenmod 10.1, android revolution hd 6.2 and stock...
do you know this problem? would love to use more rom's with good sound

I also have this issue when listening to BT audio music in my car. I haven't tried any ROMs yet to compare.
From my brief amount of research it seems to be an issue that only pops up between specific hardware. My phone sounds great in some other cars but not in mine while the HOX and iPhone5 sound great in my car.
Just an update. I am running Elegancia's latest ATT release and it appears to have fixed the problem for now.
Just another update.
It appears audio is perfect upon initial pairing but after disconnecting the audio distortion comes back the next time the phone is automatically paired.
Why would it sound fine the first time you pair a device and then sound different the next time it connects automatically?

If you're experiencing this on the Elegancia ROM, let Steve know about this.

I would love to, but how? I can't post in that forum.
Have a read at this FAQ concerning postcount limit.
Hi Guys,
I've recently purchased a Moto E XT1021 and am dismayed that it has the same audio hissing issue that some of the LG phones have suffered from. The exact problem is demonstrated on a YouTube video entitled "LG G2 KitKat Audio Issues (hissing noise)".
It appears that LG have acknowledged the problem but I wondered if anyone was aware of an existing or future fix that will work on the Moto E? I've tried the latest stock, CM11 and SlimKat ROMs but the hissing is present on all of them. This is very annoying when listening to soft music like piano pieces.
I don't want to purchase any more headphones because I already own several branded pairs that sound great on my other devices.
I've tried the suggested solutions of turning off DSP effects, using aeroplane mode, using PowerAmp etc. but these don't impact on the hissing.
Cheers.

Interesting, I did not notice this. Also after extended listening with a good headset. Maybe it differs between batches? Ive also got an XT1021.

Thanks for confirming that.
Are you using in-ear headphones? All mine are 16 or 32 ohm and are the ear-canal type. My phone was purchased in the UK.
Also got an UK phone and used a Sure in-ear headphone....
Will double check tomorrow!

Nice one.
I've just located my old Sony MDR-V6 'over-ear' headphones and they have no hiss when connected to my Moto E. However, this doesn't surprise me because I've seen the interesting thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2611599, regarding the poor Opamp on the Moto G.
I'm still curious whether this can be 'fixed' with a software patch or if it's purely down to poor audio hardware. It seems pretty lame that a device from 2013/2014 can sound as bad as the old cassette tapes from my childhood.
Wow, there really is quite some hissing when using my Sure headphone
Don't know why I did not notice this before....
My other headphones sound great!
