I probably will never use the DAC feature as i never use wired anything anymore. I have a pair of Bob Marley headphones and a 2014 Kia soul that I use with the v30. This phone seems to put out no bass at all so I tried to get my Bass Booster Pro app that has been working for the last five years for my bass needs and it wouldn't mod any sound. I went around from site to site getting several recommended bass boosting equalizers but not a single one works(oddly). My previous phone the LG G5 didn't have this problem. I am on pandora a lot and cannot find anything to use with it. I use jetaudio for my mp3s and the effects through it are the only ones that I can hear a difference. But when I increase the bass at all it gets distortion from hell. Bass is actually a stress reliever for me and am trying to figure out what I can salvage with this phone or would it be better to just return it?

unfortunately the DAC is activated only by cable. regards
i was trying to get another eq to work but none seem to work. Base Booster Pro doesn't even work like it has for the last 5 phones.
i tried a lot still miss viper or dolby but noozxoide eizo-rewire works pretty well with pandora over blutooth. free on the playstore uninstall any other eq apps first

is noozxoide still working fine for you? I've been experiencing random crashes recently
No, I couldn't get it to work. Seems that the DC is overriding all equalizers even when DC is off. I contacted LG about it but all I was sent in response was how to turn DAC on and I already know how to turn it on and off.

it's a bloody shame that the devs stopped supporting the app, I've used and loved it since 2013

Alright, so at least for my case, I uninstalled Noozoxoide, turned my phone off+wipe cache, and changed the app settings for my native audio-processing app so that it is denied notifications, permissions, removed its default status, and cannot change system settings. After that I reinstalled Noozoxoide and launched it. Interestingly, when I went to settings I saw it was already set as a default app. Just to be certain I went ahead and gave it all the permissions also excluded it from battery optimization. Currently, when playing audio, Noozoxoide is listed under running services (in developer options) as "in use" and "started by application". The native app doesn't show up at all, having apparently been excluded from being used. So far Noozoxoide hasn't had any problems with crashing or being taken over by the native app.

So what app exactly did you deny notifications, permissions, and remove its default status? The native audio-processing app on my device (Verizon V30) is the Hi-Fi Quad DAC. Can't find an app associated with it anywhere...

simply switching it off doesn't work? can you find it under your system apps in your app manager? It might not be listed as "Hi-Fi Quad DAC" word-for-word.
Every time I plug in headphones, the Histen sound effects enable themselves and give me an awful echoey sound. I just go into the Histen settings in Sounds and the effect turns off without me turning it off, as in entering the menu makes it remember that I have the effects off and they go off. But the next time I plug in headphones, they're on again. Any way to disable the effects permanently?

I had the same problem. I haven't been able to disable Histen but by selecting Natural instead of leaving it on Auto I don't get any crazy effects or end up feeling like i'm in a cave!!
Just set every value to 0

Go to HiVoice app and disable all permissions.
Next time when you insert headphones it will ask for permissions just select dont ask again and deny.
Your problem will be solved.
I don't have a HiVoice app. In Settings > Apps, HiVoice has no permissions enabled.

Clear app data of HiVoice and try again.
If you are rooted simply uninstall. Works well for me
I also have echos when connecting headphones. Restarting the phone fixes it temporarily.
I don't hava HiVoice app.

The sound is good if the headphones are not cheap.

Histen sound effects ruin audio whether you're using Apple EarPods or AKG K702s. Terrible echo. Unless your headphones are really colored out of the box, there's no need for major EQ or sound effects. Any software messing with the sound is a downgrade.
In the same place the built in audiochip like good. I have headphones kz hybrid two-wheel. Pretty good sound.

That is so true, I tried it with Sony earphones and sound is very good, great bass and very clear sound.
I got original huawey headset..Model AM 185.altbough sound while you play music is awesome... If you try to watch any documentary and you listen a clean voice... It sounds like the person talks from a tube φ100. ( Plummers will understand)
Tried sony headset same. Philips same. So yea hands up and i don't know what else to say. Histen is good for music but it should deactivate somehow when you dont need it cause even in normal the sound is tweaked in a really bad way
for anyone finding this thread later, I got huawei p smart 2019, uninstalled 56 apps that I otherwise couldn't via adb (no root, it's even super easy to reinstall them, can recommend) one of them being the histen (com.huawei.imedia.sws) however, your maximum volume will be decreased significantly. it is barely enough for me so that alone would not be such an issue, but what is really annoying is that sometimes when i plug in headphones in the morning and play music i get 0.1 sec of louder volume (louder than max if you have it set on max at the moment) which promptly goes down to what is now "normal". reinstalling the histen gives you back the proper max volume, but uninstall and reboot will bring it down again. seems like there's no win for me..
Hi. I'm using the phone for the last couple of days and I wanted to change Bluetooth quality settings (codec and bitrate) from dev menu, but it's greyed out. Any hints?
They stay greyed out unless you are actively playing media audio on your device, then you can change these settings in Developer Options (while you are playing a song). The settings, however, do not 'stick' and revert to the default AAC codec when you exit Developer Options. Hauwei needs to fix this in the next firmware update because older headsets use SBC and top of the line headsets use aptx. We need an option to change these settings and save the changes.
I m still not able to get Aptx its still grayed out

It has to be supported and advertised by the BT device.

You won't due it is not compatible with Kirin Chipset, just with SD
It's see the official link below

Not really.. the chosen codec/option will stick temporarily, it will remain the same until you disconnect the earphones even if you exit dev options. They do not revert to default when you exit dev options.
And yes, having to re-enter dev options and change again to the codec you want, every single time, is very annoying. The user's preference should be saved..
aptX is on by default on my unit (developer options).
Does the grey aptX has to white in the Bluetooth menu to be enabled?
Hey guys,
I have connected my A3 to a roidmi in my car and i have noticed there's a very poor audio quality over a blurtooth. I have also checked it with a stereo in my living room. Does anyone else got a same problem? How to get over it?

Ya i do have this problem, its a bug that hasn't been fixed yet. Turn volume down by 3 steps and you will be fine.
just enable developer options and set it to the highest quality, by default it is using the lowest bandwidth with the lowest quality
There is an even more serious bug with this phone and Bluetooth : if you get a call while streaming audio to a Bluetooth headset, music stops as expected, but then playback fails after the call has been ended. You need to reboot in most cases in order to get back music playback.
Tested with several Jabra and Plantronics headsets and different music players.

Are you sure it's actually doing this? Because when I switch Bluetooth to using another codec or higher quality, then hit back button, then go back into dev options, all the settings are back to default, so I don't think it actually does anything. I have a Bose qc 35, which is supposed to support aac.

Try this Magisk module and increase the bitrate of SBC codec. You might need to experiment a little to find the best value for your setup. Start at the max (or just use the recommended value) and gradually decrease until it's stable. High bit rate SBC can have higher quality than APT-X (HD) - you will need to disable "HD Audio" in Bluetooth device setting to force usage of SBC.
I was using it with Mi A1, but haven't tried with A3 yet.
https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/gjf_bt
Btw. changing BT codec in developer settings never worked for me, not sure what's the purpose of it
Same problem for me. My bluetooth headset sucks at this device. I hope we can find an easy solution immediately

Its not the bitrate, it happened with me many times before so i can tell, phone boosts the volume past max for some reason which causes distortion, reducing volume fixes the issue

I'm trying this module. I turned on Bluetooth snoop logging to see if I can see what bitrate I'm actually getting connected with. There is text .log file enough which is only few bytes and a larger binary file with
cfa extension. You don't happen to know what format this is, do you?

CFA is a binary btsnoop file containing all the packets related to BT connection. It should be possible to open it on a PC in Wireshark. I couldn't find a way to open it on Android directly.

In my case (JBL Free X), this is not an solution, it's only quite better, when i set bitrate higher than 574
I think I have found solution for this problem. I have installed miui 11 on my mi a3. Then I have installed magisk and gjf_bt module. Noises no more. For some reason this module doesn't works on stock rom

Hi again,
I have the Audeze Mobius Headphones which use LDAC and I would like to set the LDAC Playback Quality in Developer Options to "Optimized for Audio Quality", but although it work in the moment, as soon as I close the Developer Options and I open them again, I see that the setting has been reset back to Best Effort, every time.
I do not know what to do.
Audeze told me that in their phones this doesn't happen, and that the Headphones won't work properly in Best Effort.
What can I do to force the "Audio Quality"?
Thanks!
Anybody?
If your phone is rooted and USB-debugging enabled, then you can try to edit related setting in device's files build.prop & settings.db by means of ADB, if such setting therein is present.
Hi to all! The same question for Lineage 16 on Huawei P9 and Shanling MW200. I;m trying to set this settings, but it reset to default after BT disconnect. How to change this default setting?
