Cyanogenmod is really awesome, just keep in mind that it has issues for the i9300, specially in the latest nightlys, as for me I love CM but I can't stand the audio issues with headphones, losing sound when stopping the internal mic (eg. music + calls, audio recording, video recording = no go), graphics glitches in long hovering lists, and the latest that for some reason when using headphones with build-in mic make the phone record the internal sound at the same time as the mic, eg. music + video recording = no go. As the usual ones, no WiFi tether, poor camera performance, etc. And also note that all of this issues are due to samsung not being completely open with his sources, thus the open community has to see how to compensate those parts...
So at the end, if you love android, you'll love CyanogenMod, it just needs to be ironed from some of the most infamous issues.:fingers-crossed:
don't decide until you experience it. good luck

OK so I know that the GS2 has the EU sound cap on it. And I know how to get to the service menu but that does t always work in CM10. My question is why is there no set sound level between ROMs? To see what I'm talking about, install Chameleon ROM and listen to audio using headset. Then try a CM ROM and you'll notice a huge loss of loudness.
Thoughts?

CM10 presently has a known volume bug.
You can use extweaks (with Siyah, dream or Dorimanx kernel) to boost three headset volume.
Or
download voodoo louder or similar apps to achieve that.
Swyped from my Galaxy SII
I do that but still not as loud as Chameleon ROM. Thanks for the info, Emma do some more digging around to see what happening.

Hi guys I wanted to share what I found to be working on my Sprint Optimus G.
I've been using this audio engine and the results have been pretty great.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002367
Use the universal installation in aroma and remember if you install walkman don't install any add-ons.
I personally skip the walkman installation and use the noozy add-on.
Please do a nandroid backup before trying and do not install on top of nocturnal's music mod until someone verifies it does not cause any issues.
Remember not to use music player equalizer as the installed app changes sound system wide.
Also don't forget on first boot let device settle and then reboot.
BTW this has worked on my epic 4g, gs3, touchpad, asus transformer and evo 3d with just about the same results: amazing control over sound with great clarity and bass.
I haven't tested on a att version so don't know if it works with no issues as on my sprint version but, wanted to put it out there for your guys as well since I've also been reading these threads from the beginning.
Thanks for viewing.
Backing up right now then I'm going to flash the Universal and then the Noozxoide addon just like you recommended! Will post back and let you know how things go Thanks for the link man.
Why make a separate thread...?
I find Noozoxide to be the best of the sound mods the recent updates only made it better

Alright so I backed up and flashed, they work and sound absolutely fantastic. Thanks a lot for the post once again.
That is awesome to hear..... I've definitely been enjoying the sound difference

Nothing beats Voodoo on the Nexus S or Galaxy S because the Galaxy S and Nexus S use a very good audio chip.
so, I've noticed that when using teh Nooz player, if i lock my screen, the music will play to the end of the track, but won't move forward to the next track unless I power on my phone. . . anyone else notice this?
Didn't work on mine
Did the ACID installation along with the Walkman (like they suggested). Followed all the instructions. It gave me the ACID app, the Albums app, the Dolby Mobile app, and the Walkman app. However...
-I didn't get any service for some reason. Just a red X by my bars while I was using it.
-I get force closes every time I go into the Walkman app to mess with the sound enhancements. Literally doesn't let me do anything.
-My music doesn't play...AT ALL. On ANY music player
I followed the directions for version 6.1 perfectly too. Sucks because I just went to Slick Rom and got rid of Nocturnal (and their Sony enhancement app) so I wanted to bring some good sound quality back to the Slick Rom. Oh well...

Don't do the 7.0 preview, either. Headphones won't work and you magically lose the ability to play mp3's.

Just curious if anyone else is having trouble with playing audio on 4.4 Roms. The music plays fine but I keep getting audio glitches throughout the songs at random intervals. I am running kitkang with viper4android. I don't think it's the audio mod because before I installed the driver on the latest nightly it was still glitching. Thanks for any input guys!

Yes this happens while running through the headphone jack, I never use BT

Ugh I think this issue is a double edged sword, after more troubleshooting I found that switching lpa.decode to true stops the glitches but also makes viper4android stop working. I guess I'll just have to wait for things to get worked out!
Edit: Come to find out after even more screwing around I finally found the culprit.........my kernel settings were not allowing to clock speeds to jump up fast enough to compensate for the audio processing, wow do I feel silly. Mod's you can delete this if you want!

Hello,
I'm having a problem with video playback. Whenever I pause the video or move the seek bar to any spot, the video will pause and play constantly even if it's already loaded until I replay the whole video all over again.
I'm also having an issue with the external speaker. Whenever I play music using the external speaker, the sound plays distorted even when no EQ's are active.
All of this started happening after I upgraded to 4.4.2 on Super Nexus. My question is, are these 4.4.2 issues in general? Or Super Nexus only. I'm willing to switch to another 4.4.2 rom but I'd like to find this out first.
Thanks in advance

I recently installed Cyanogen mod 11 on my Droid DNA.
Overall I'm loving the look and feel of Cyanogen mod, but I'm running in to some minor issues with maximum volume. For some reason the max volume for the speakers is now much quieter than it was before.
I've tried various solutions, one of which is here, I found the file they talk about but I have no "Speaker" section, just many variations.
Has anyone else had this issue? Does anybody know how I could force the max volume to be louder out of my speakers? I'm using YouTube videos as a reference.
I am running it and don't have this issue. Is your speaker partially blown or anything. Is there any physical damage on the phone.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Nope, no damage to the phone. And when I revert to the stock ROM the sound is perfectly fine.
That's strange. Maybe I'm just not used to it. I haven't noticed.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah with me it was a big difference, I might try going through the sound config file on my phone and upping all the volumes by a few percent to see if that helps.

Yeah I believe I was accidentally using a nightly instead of a snapshot.
However a couple days after I fixed this issue CM updated to a newer snapshot, and the sound is broken again. Do you think I should report this as a bug? Or just wait for the newest update?

If you did a clean install and it's on a snapshot you can report a bug. But if you didn't do a clean install do that first and then if it's still there report the bug.
Please press the thanks button if I have helped you in anyway.

viper4android Disables LPA
The only time I had ever had an issue was flashing a nightly dirty. I managed to recover the audio by installing viper4android.apk. The newer versions of V4A automatically detects if LPA (low powered audio) is enabled. It will give you an option to disable it, just tick that yes please button. Usually LPA only affects things like bluetooth audio so it wouldn't drain the battery as fast, but I know with previous CM versions they had a bluetooth audio issue. Most likely completely unrelated but there might have been a WIP that caused things to be construed. If another rom version works then i'd recommend just installing a stable release.
REMEMBER ~ you are able if you run stable :good:
This actually worked for me!
I downloaded Viper For Android, installed the updated drivers it recommended, then turned on "eXtra-Loud" for the phone speaker.
Audio is now just as loud as before.
Where's the thanks button? So that I can give you thanks.

Just wanted to pipe in with something that may be others source of low volume issues. I have had low volume on my stock Droid DNA for quite some time and really beat my head against the wall trying to figure it out. Turns out it was very simple for me but not terribly obvious. Get your phone out and look at the speaker grill (just below the Beats Audio logo on the back). Does it look a bit clogged? Mine was completely clogged (I don't use a case). I took out a toothbrush I use just for cleaning and cleared it up and my audio is nice and loud now. Just wanted to pass on this simple fix to try so others would see it.
Viper has been abandoned; what's a good ROM now?
