[Q] is there any way to adjust AOSP sounds - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I love how smooth the AOSP system works. I do not like how loud volume is. Is there any way to adjust that?

Well, you could install a custom kernel, then use STweaks to adjust the volumes that you want. I am however curious as to which AOSP rom you are using..in my experience most if not all AOSP roms have yielded really low volumes for me. =P

I think they might have meant that...
If it was a issue with it being too loud, they would be able to easily adjust the volume with the sliders. I'm pretty sure they meant loud in a way similar to volume level.

[Q] DSP manager on 2.2 cm 6.1.3

Is it possible to port the dsp Manager app to 2.2 or 2.1 so we can have the bass boost on our stable roms? The 2.3 music app was also ported so i thought it could also be done with the dsp....
try power amp pro, great equaliser on it from my experience
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
What ROM are you using? My 6.1.3?
Heres one that works with my ROM
http://www.mediafire.com/?1h2i2z3qygqvz2c
yeah thanks. i'm using your rom.
I actually tried some DSP's from the htc desire and hd forums but both hadn't the bassboost option...
I'll hope this one has.
****tt, after flashing your zip my x10 stucks at the white sony ericsson text @ booting
For those that are having problem with DSP manager i suggest you to do a full wipe + cache wipe + dalvik & battery wipe. and install directly the v3 of wolfbreak's release do not install the first version and update it. just install the v3 version without installing the Gapps. because its already installed on the v3. then try to install the DSP Manager. it sould work without any problem.
Regards.

Basically, it goes bass to mid to treble from left to right. I personally like using a 'scooped' setting, which jacks up the highs and lows while cutting down on the mids. It's the same setting I use on my guitar amps too and I think it gives a nice sound.
So my setting from left to right is 6,5,4,5,6.
I think though to find the setting you like, you'll have to mess with it a bit to find what works best for you. Hope this helps!

[Q] Headset volume low on latest AOKP - Need help

Upgraded to latest AOKP rom. One thing I don't like about the S2 is the low headset volume when plugging in my headset w/mic. I tried accessing the service menu using the #*#*197328640*#*# but I get an MMI error. Is there a way to access the service menu on the latest AOKP rom? More importantly, is there a way to increase the default volume settings for headsets on S2's?
Thank you in advance
Yes. There are apps on the play store that do this.

Depending on the kernel that you use. Voodoo Louder works pretty well, I think it was $1.23, but it checks for compatibility before you actually by the function. It claims CM kernels are compatible when it does the check, I can't speak for all versions of this kernel, but from all the stock kernels with AOKP that I've tried it on in the last two weeks it has had no effect. With siyah kernels, I've had no problems with it. It boosts up to 6db. If you use siyah, extweaks app is free, but it only boosts 3 db, so not a significant gain, however the latest version 4.3 (which works great with latest aokp ROMs) might have some extra boost. I haven't given it a shot because I didn't really need to boost much more since I already have Voodoo louder, but it's worth some experimentation before buying Voodoo. Yes there are MANY apps, and some that are free, but I thought I'd save you the hassle of trial and error and let you know what does work. Other things might work better, so definitely feel free to try others out. Also DSP manager, you'll have to google for link to apk, I don't think it's here in XDA, works with an EQ, but when you jam them all the way up it doesn't sound quite right to me. I did not like it, but it has several EQ setting you might like with whatever sound system you're using, plus custom EQ. Boosting sound is really my sole reason for changing kernels, but with latest siyah and extweaks, there are a CRAP LOAD of other settings to play with. Eventually I'll get around to them. Hope this helps.
Power amp + ex tweaks. Power amp allows for an increase of I think 6 db if I remember right
Or install Awesome beats + Siyha kernel + extweaks.
You can found the first 2 on mrRobinson Aroma from themes and apps section.

Played with the recent updates in Siyah kernel (in ex tweaks)... The volume boost is pretty damn beast now. Voodoo Louder is pretty much obselete. The headphone amplifier is indeed 6db now, plus the next slider down is an 'analog' boost that goes up 20db....ridonkulous homie... I'm loving it!

Thanks for the tip to use EX Tweaks. I was actually having the opposite problem, headphone volume too loud. Was having to keep it at just 1 click above totally off. Now I can keep it at the mid-point, with plenty of headroom to adjust when moving to louder/quieter environments.

Future ROM feature wishlist

So I know that the devs are hard at work on getting us all kinds of CM, AOSP, and/or AOKP goodness, but I thought maybe if any of the devs are looking for some features to add it might be nice to have a thread they can refer to with everyones "wants" once the "needs" are met.
I'll start it off with a request to add support for BLN (back light notification) to an upcoming kernel. This, combined with the option to put the navigation bar on while dissabling the HW keys would be a great feature IMHO. Not to mention our stock notification LED pretty much sucks a big one.
ROM feature requests
Flashlight in notification drawer quick settings
More options in the shutdown menu (Boot to recovery, etc)
Get rid of the idiotic audio policy of volume reduction when plugging in headphones
Allow dialer rotation
The option to see the standard swipe lock screen before the secure lock.
True music controls on the lock screen
Better control of status bar icons (center clock, hide icons, change colors of icons, etc)
The ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume
Volume rocker music controls
Universal Qslide
Kernel feature requests
BLN
Enable audio through USB for devices like the Infuse Car Dock (I think this is a kernel issue, if not let me know and I'll put it with the ROM stuff)
I didn't see a similar thread on here, so if there is, kindly point me to it and a mod can delete this one. And if BLN support already exists in Sk8's kernel tell me that too, ha ha.
I haven't looked into the ROMs because I'm liking stock, but a request I do have for when I do decide to flash is to have a flashlight if it hasn't been incorporated into the ROMs out now. There's a lot of times where I need to look for something and don't feel like turning on my light switch. Would be a nice thing to be implemented if it hasn't been done and can be done.

I don't know if this is what you have in mind, but I use TeslaLED: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&feature.. It has a widget you can add to the homescreen for a quick on off, as well as some other features. I actually have it as one of my lock screen apps. I wish there was a way to have it turn on when opened from the lockscreen, but it's only one extra tap.
Edit: Gah! John beat me to one.
PS: TeslaLED is only 512K, whereas Tiny Flashlight is anything but at 1.5M

My biggest things are center clock, ability to hide things on status bar, and a flashlight toggle. The Base has done pretty well but I would love a flashlight toggle in my quick settings in my notification drawer. The swipe for flashlight thing was so touchy that I disable it.
Also, I love the theme chooser app and ability to have easy themes for my ROMs like in CM10 and AOKP
EDIT: also the ability to boot straight into download and recovery mode like in certain other ROMs using the power button.

The Base ROM does have a flashlight built in, you can activate it in the notification drawer options.
I was using Tesla until I found this.
Though I do wish it was in the Quick Settings too.
I would also love native reboot options.
And lastly, I would love the ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume.
I know. The swipe thing only works half the time and half of that half, I end up with The Base force closes

Really, it actually works quite well for me.
Haven't had a base fc yet... you may want to reinstall and try again.

I had actually forgot about this feature. I just tried it again and sometimes it takes three or four swipes to turn on. Might be user error though.
Swipe for torch works perfect for me.
Reboot options would be nice.
Volume Button Music controls would be nicer.
I actually came up with a wish while looking at the android dev section.
It doesn't actually have to do with the rom itself, but I'm hoping that as things become further developed to not only have a Changelog but to have a what's working list/what's not working list or just the latter.
I see a lot of threads gets bogged down with DOES THIS WORK? IS THIS INCLUDED?
Granted there's a group of people out there that don't read and just flash, but it could be helpful for another group of people that compare and contrast roms (like myself) before flashing.
Anyone else agree?

That makes sense to me. :thumbup: I wonder if xda could get a ROM form together so all the devs can include all the same info in their ROM's thread's OP. I don't know how practical that would be, but it would be nice to have some standardization.

That is a pretty cool idea.
But from what I've seen, most ROM posts actually follow a pretty basic design.
We seem to be the odd ones out.

[Q] Wake using volume rocker

I had this when using the Base, but after going stock again in preparation for CM or AOSP I lost the ability to wake using the volume rocker. I know I need to edit a file in system/usr/keylayout but I can't remember which one, and if that was the only thing i needed to do.
I've tried searching this forum for it, but have not been able to find it. I remember when I read it, it was a offshoot of another thread within it.
Thanks for any help and have an awesome one.

Rootbox has it as an option, and I think the new CM10 has it as well.
If you're intending to use AOSP anyway, there really isn't anything for you to do.

Yeah I was able to try those and while I prefer their aesthetic I miss not having more control of the hardware. (eco-mode, wise screen, etc.) If any of the ROMs for the G had the eco-mode feature I'd stick with it, but as it is the Nova launcher and stock are more than ok.
So for anyone who might know could you let me know?
Thanks!

Go to system/usr/keylayout. Edit file "keypad_8064.kl", key 114 and key115 as shown. Save a backup of original file, just in case.
Get Trickster MOD from the play store. You can set ECO mode with it if you are using the Houcha kernel.

Thank you for the feedback guys.
I knew about the editing the keylayout file, but even after editing it does not change the rocker behavior. I remember needing to do something else to a file, but I can't find the reference anywhere.
Being on the houchu kernell would require me to convert the phone to the nexus 4 wouldn't it?

[Q] Notification sounds interrupt videos in different ways on different ROMs - why?

I've found differences in the behaviour of notifications on different ROMs, notably in the stock Jellybean ROM for my i9100 a notification will:
1. Mute all other sounds
2. Play the notification sound
3. Unmute other sounds
Whereas when I have AOKP installed the sounds both play at once, as in no muting occurs and the sound is overlayed.
My question is: what decides this behaviour? And can I tune it per-ROM? I'm a technical user so I'm comfortable hacking around a bit to get my desired behaviour, I just don't know where to look!
U better ask the dev of the AOKP ROM.
