[Q] Q/ audio anomalies s3white awsome, s3red not. Hardware problem? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It all started with ACID audio engine.
Right. I have tried this mod on stock leaked 4.1.2 with siyah rc3. At first, with awesome beats, all my audio players reacted to the eq settings, but with high anomalies, like dropping the volume when I press vol- to silent, and when I try to use awesome eq again, it jumps to the max. Well, there was no build prop settings. Added, rebooted, same. Re flashed aroma method again, the eq stopped giving any response at all. So reflashed my rom with superwipe, basicly the only eq that does any effect is poweramp built in, and on foxhound apollo and awsome beats eq, but after a day of use, apollo stops responding, and I have to reflash the rom again. And audio quality is ok only if I dont touch any eq settings with apollo. Otherwise it feels like its clogged up or something. Does not matter what rom, what kernel, or player I use, only power amp eq works, and on foxhound apollo and awesome beats. Thats my second s3, when I had an early white s3, with foxhound ics I used power amp, beats, and st tweeks, at the same time with no audio degradation, no anomalies, I even managed to break few pairs of my friends iphone headphones. Bass was crisp and clear, with no problems. Maybe there is some problems with my wolfston dac? or acid mod damaged it? Any ideas?

Modified firmware/mods more than hardware .
Full wipe and install stock firmware .

stock 4.1.2 leak with superwipe script did not helped. Im going to try ics in an hour.

I'm running cyanogen and this is annoying the hell out of me as well. the speaker on the back is amazingly quiet. It was the same with every version rom/android I've put on this thing. I'd switch to a particular one if the need be, to fix this problem. DSPmanager only slightly improves things.
Mort player has an equalizer option, and after setting the sliders all the way up gives me a much improved volume. Just use the sliders judiciously so that the sound does not flutter. Its a tiny speaker after all, so can't expect much.
Can u install dspmanager on nookie emmc rom??

Equalizer apps not working properly?

I have not got any Equalizer to work next to a music app, like spotify, on my SXS.
well, they work to a volume level of 60 % or less. greater than that and the audio turns flat again.
I´ve tried different equalizers, and a soundmod on different roms like Miui, KA and stock ICS.
Am I the only one with this problem or is there a solution?

[Q] Sound Mods

Hey mates!
Well, i wanted to ask something about the different sound mods available for our phone:
Is any of the sound mods worthy in order to make the quality sound better? when i mean better, i'm referring to the vocals of the songs being clearly heard 'as loud as the instruments, because right now the voice is like half the volume of the instruments'.
Why i ask?, well i saw different opinions in some threads and some said that this or that sound mod makes the difference... but i also saw some saying that the only thing that does is to put Better EQ settings in the sound so that it can be heard in a better way, like it was any normal EQ in a music player if you mess around with it a bit.
So if that is only like a normal EQ player, it means... that it will not change anything about the sound quality or vocals being more clear/loud, is that right?
Example: Mixzing has an EQ and in every single song you can put different types of EQ's like a preset, if you mess around with that EQ you will surely be able to have the same quality and EQ settings as any other Sound Mod out there right?, Putting Bass lower and the Highs louder and the Gain louder, i think that will do the trick.
So the question is: Is any sound mod gonna make a difference? or a normal EQ in a music player will do just fine?
If there is a difference, then tell me what mod is better for me to install in order to get that audio quality/louder vocals please .

You are right about putting the bass eq lower and the vocals eq higher, that is probably the only way to reach clear vocals. like you, I have tried pretty much every sound mod out there.
I used to think acid made a difference, but, on closer inspection, it didn't really.
Most sound mods only increased the bass in my ears, while others didn't make any differrence at all.
So I would recommend an eq to you, my favourite one being Viper for android, because you can exactly set howe much bass you want, it has a loudness increaser and many, many more features.
It took me a while to find out my favourite settings, but now I have the Ideal amount of bass and strong, clear vocals.
PS. Since a few days I have some mid to high end earphones, in combination with those, as said, VIPER fo Android works like a charm.

So that means i'm right in what i'm saying :S.
Can you do a screenshot of your Viper settings and share it here mate?. Well in theory, if you're saying that Viper is good because of the amount of bass and loudness control, then i think it's the same thing that mixzing can do but even better because mixzing can save presets for every single song, because if we think about it: the bass is controlled by the Left bars of the EQ ( mostly controls the Drums and Bass ), the middle bars ( mostly guitar and a bit of vocals ), right bars ( Voice and making the sound more clear ), and another thing: EQ settings are not the same for every single song on a normal EQ, because not every song has the same amount of Db's or amount of Bass, Middle and High, that way some may distort, be louder than other songs, or lower. Mixzing let's you control the amount of gain and EQ settings of every single song, that's why i like it so much xD.
But if you think that Viper really makes a difference vs EQ settings of mixzing, then send me your screenshots please .
Cheers

Make volume like on Apple?

Is it really possible guys?
I had 4.2.1 with dorimax kernel i think, and it could be customized, CPU, GPU and even sound. You could add some DB in headsets options.
I configured it like it won't be too loud and it didn't sound like crap - it was like on Ipod from Apple.
But the rom was too laggy and battery drained awfully.
Maybe there is some GOOD suggestions about how to gain a little bit volume when i'm listening to music in my earphones. But really proven way that don't gives you bad bass and sound.
Thankyou very much.

Xperia Z2 Ringtone Volume very low

Hello,
I have recently replaced the backcover of my Xperia Z2
and because i made a mistake one speaker is broken now. Stereo does not work. This ist not a huge problem for me but after the 6.0 Update (i am running eXistenZ 5.0.0) the Ringtone Volume is way lower than the Volume of the same mp3 file player as when played music with the music app. It is so low that i am not able to hear it with all the enviromental noise. This is apparently not a bug but rather a protection from Sony to not harm you wars if someone would call you during a call where you had your phone close to your ears. I am wondering if a custom tom would fix this problem. I tried to boost the volume of the mp3 with audacity and enabeld ClearAudio+ in the settings but after boosting it wasn't really louder , just more distorted. I even tried it with a tasker task to play my Ringtone as a music but the voulme wasn't increased. Is there any rom to fix this. I have twrp installed so installing a rom would not be a problem.
With kind regards
