Desire HD Sound Enhancement

Okay guys, this is an update from my thread in the 'General section'. New and improved, contains a list of working an Non-working ROMs and more scripts.

What is this you ask? Well have you ever thought your Desire HD's speakers suck balls? Can't hear the ringtone go off? Or just a crappy overall speaker quality? Well try this out and

HOPEFULLY

you'll actually like them :D

-> List of working ROMs (My experience)

- All variations of Cyanogen mod 7

- All Sense 2.36 based ROMs

- MDJ's ROMs

- All current MIUI ROMs (after flashing snd3254.zip)

- ARHD 5.x

-> List of

NON

working ROMs (My experience)

- Incredible S and Desire s Ports (Few Incredible S ports MAY work)

- Tested 2 3.0 ports and both didn't work, feel free to test for yourself

PLEASE Give me feedback on What ROM you are using when reporting issues and let me know if it works on your ROM if it's not posted up here so I can add it :D

Methods

-> Terminal Method

1. Download Terminal Emulator from the market

2. Open it and enable SuperUser permissions by typing 'su' and pressing enter

3. Then type either command 'snd3254 xx' where xx is a number from the sound table (Below) or 'echo xx|snd3254 -dspmode'

-> Gscript Method

1. Download Gscript from the market

2. Open it and enable and add a new script

3. Then type either command 'snd3254 xx' where xx is a number from the sound table (Below) or 'echo xx|snd3254 -dspmode'

4. Make sure you tick super user permissions

5. Run script

-> How to enable script on startup

Gscript application -> press and hold the script you want on boot -> save to sd -> download a program from the market called 'script manager' -> go to the folder sdcard/gscript -> select the saved script -> open as 'script' -> then tick the boxes 'run as root' and 'run at boot' -> save it and close the app and your selected script will run at boot!

Sound table

'snd3254 -dspmode xx'

01. Original_Phone_Rec

02. Original_Phone_Spk

03. Original_Phone

04. Original_Spk

05. Dolby_a_spk

06. Dolby_a_hp

07. Dolby_v_spk

08. Dolby_v_hp

09. Srs_a_hp

10. Srs _a_spk

11. Srs_v_hp

12. Srs_v_spk

13. Bass Booster

14. Blues

15. Classical

18. Latin

19. New Age

20. Piano

21. Pop

22. R&B

23. Rock

24. Treble Booster

25. Vocal Booster

- Keep in mind the above table is for sense GB Roms and the MIUI and CM set up is slightly different... Basically the same

- hp = Headphones spk = speakers

- 13 - 25 only applies to Headphones

- Replace xx with a number from the table

- If you are on MIUI or cm refer to - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12345725&postcount=2798

Optional

You can create script shortcuts on your homescreen by selecting -> shortcuts -> gscript lite -> then whatever you named your script

Please note that this has nothing to do with the kernel and I am not a Developer myself. I will however talk to Devs and work with them to TRY incorporate this into their ROMs

Let me know if this makes your speakers better in anyway :D

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Lord_Schrotty:
what does the Srs_a_hp and Srs_v_hp

just the a and v.. what do they mean?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
I'm not sure, although i find options with the 'V' provide better quality
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Nichie:
Will have a go at it when I'm off work!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] jags_the1:
on cynogen mod we have dsp manager , it does the same thing right?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] alienzgod:
will test that, thanks mate
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
DSP manager is nothing in comparison.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] ymcc:
anyone find out which one is better ? i tested most of them and the 07. Dolby_v_spk and

the 02. Original_Phone_Spk is pretty good
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Vita.T:
should the script include the word: dspmode, or just 2 digi?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Both
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] EazyVG:
This app from the link (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1055748) does really work for me.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] gextor:
i downloaded the .zip file and moved it to my sdcard, now what do i do? Everytime i put snd3254 -dspmode 08 into my gscript and try running it it says snd3254 not found...

This is exactly how i type it in gscript

snd3254 -dspmode

then i save it, and try to run it, but it will not run... i seriously want my srs enhancement back...

EDIT: i am running the newest MIUI rom for HTC inspire(desire)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Milini:
Thank you very much this tweak, it is so genius ! The DHD doesn't have a speaker problem it's just this crappy default setting.

Because it took me some time to get it done (i am still new with android), I post some hints. May be it makes it easier for you.

That's the way I did it. My hardware is a rooted (vodafone) branded DHD with standard HTC ROM (1.39).

- For me as a nooby the instructions in the first post seems like there need to be installed something. This scared me some weeks ago and I didn't do anything.

This is not the case ! The attachement is probably only there for other developers. You don't need to install something, everything is already there !

- In order to test the tweak load the app 'Anroid Terminal Emulator'

- Type in 'su' and click enter. In the following pop-up agree to give the terminal emulation superuser rights. (need rooted phone obviously)

- Type 'snd3254 -dspmode'. In the follwing text the dspmodes are shown and you are asked to enter the number you want. Type '04' and click enter. If you have music in the background playing you will notice the huge difference immediately.

- Alternative: Type 'echo 04|snd3254 -dspmode'. But you need to copy it from here or write it somewhere else. As CyberTod (thanks for this useful hint) described in the original thread the onscreen keyboard doesnt have "|" symbol. It does have a similar looking symbol, but it is not the same and it doesnt work if typed on the onscreen keyboard.

If you like the result you can automate the doing either with Gscript or with Tasker as Pleske explained here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13184812&postcount=99

I automated it with tasker and run it on every reboot automatically (the context is event/system/device boot).
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Snake-Plissken:
i didnt had the snd3254 file in system/bin

i copied it but i get the message:

cannot open codec aic3254 device -1

any ideas?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] ganjaweed:
Thanx for your work guyz.I tried this method and it worked but not as much as I expected.Then my phone started freezing.I dont know if this has anything to do with it.Wiped fon and downloaded equalizer, a free app on the market and damn that little thing is a devil .The base and the sound enhancement is just great.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] ButtonBoy:
run as root
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Kaljo:
Works fine on ARHD 5.1.7:D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Snake-Plissken:
what you mean run as root?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] ButtonBoy:
Type "su" (return) first
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] acidspider:
File not found??? Help please
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Snake-Plissken:
I tried it but didn't work. Well after a reboot now everything works. Weird...
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Snake-Plissken:
Check the OP the file is attached there...
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] acidspider:
It doesn't say what to do with it though
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
If you're referring to the snd3254.zip, you're meant to flash it in cwm
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Snake-Plissken:
i just extracted the snd3254 file into system/bin using root explorer and mounting it as R/W

after that reboot and try it....
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] aalwani:
I am having some kind of a problem with this script. It seems everything is running fine, both on boot and when i run it manually, however i realized that sometimes the sound goes back to low as if the script was undone. I am not sure if this is random or after a call or notification, but i am running the script a lot now and it is frustrating! running miui 1.6.17
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] LeeDroid:
I will make a flashable addon with boot execution today, the kernel needs to have stock audio levels or it will cause problems, il be doing that too ;)

Sent from my LeeDrOID loaded Desire HD
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] julian-bos:
Does this method work with:

Rom: RCMix3D 1.9

Kernel: LeeDrOiD HD 3.2.0

??
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Goran_M:
Sounds great, thanks!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Yea should work fine
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] vickyclewis:
can gscript be used to create a script to boot a kernel instead of flashing a kernel? this would be very useful to connect a pendrive or hdd to the already great Desire HD?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Mate, i have no idea what you're asking :/

When I have this on I can't hear anyone when they call me or I call them.

What settings are people using?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
I'm still confused. Are you asking about the kernel or the sound scripts?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Are you using a desire hd or a inspire? Also what Rom?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] io53:
Thank you for this. I've been using it for along time without even knowing you had a thread. I got tired of having to use the terminal to get srs on so I made a small app for using it :).

Again, my ears thank you!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tolakos100:
Hi,

After i flashed the zip file i cannot get su permision.

I get permision denied everytime i ask for su on terminal emulator.

Before the flash i had no such issue.

I checked the superuser permisions but seems ok.

Any clou?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Check your superuser app. Maybe there are conflicts there? Otherwise wipe your superuser data
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tolakos100:
Thanks for your help.

I already did that. In bin folder there is another app called "snd" which is something similar to "snd3254". Is it possible to have a conflict between the two files? After i flashed the zip file through recovery i can't erase the snd3254 file from bin folder because this is system's folder and i can't remove any file.

I forced to reinstall the rom to gain superuser rights again and erase the "nd3254".

Can someone help please?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Nope snd shouldn't conflict with it at all. Try using root explorer to remove it :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] blackEyEz2:
Noob question, what is the difference between flashing this snd file and using equalizer apps in the market?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rockztahh:
'snd3254 xx' not found in terminal emulator. assuming that xx is the number in the sound table. any help? im using rcmix 1.9 rom,leedroid kernel

It should be 'snd3254 -dspmode xx'
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] rockztahh:
tnx dude. tried that but still no luck

Do you have the snd3254 file in /system/bin/ ?

desire hd on miui 1.7.22

guys, i tried this out, and it works well, but i have a problem..

when i run snd3254 -dspmode 08, my headset sounds perfect, but my external speaker sounds bad, and when i run snd3254 -dspmode 07, my headset sounds bad but my speaker sounds perfect. also when i receive a call or make a call, i cannot hear anything! when i switch back to dspmode 7, the in call sound is fine again. any ideas how this can be overcome??
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] deanr1977:
Any luck with the addon Lee? & will you be making this one of your addons in your Rom on your thread?

Hey, sorry bud this is for dhd only

Cry:( it's so hard to port on Desire S? Maybe I'll find like-minded people and we will buy your work? how much want for this?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] aalwani:
Using MIUI 1.7.22, DHD, dspmode dolby_v_spk, when using this patch, I am having problems hearing people when they call all the time :(
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] io53:
I'm pretty sure it's impossible as it uses a hardware chip that the desire s doesn't have.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] jilee:
I still cannot understand how to get this work. Anyone please give a proper instruction? Have i flash the .zip first and then do the Terminal/Gscript method, or something like that?

And i've heard about the calling volume when using this (nice sound quality for music via headphones/speaker but cannot hear when in-call). So please confirm on that matter too and give a solution if possible :D

Thank you!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Everythings in the first post mate

Just go into terminal and run

'su'

'snd3254 - dspmode'

then choose what you want :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] huggy_02:
sense 3.5 has a different table , no srs or dolby

Thx for the file and the guide.

Working nicely on ARHD.

Is this going to be our fix for ADHD 6.1.0. ?

I would love to have better sound on my Inspire.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Quiksilver78:
This reply may be a bit too late or too obvious, but I am thinking that you can't run two fixes at the same time. Either you choose an enhancement for your headphones OR enhance the speaker output, but not both :(

Personally, I am not too concerned about it since I always have my phone on 'Vibrate' mode anyway, but others may not feel the same.

I am still trying to figure out what the 'a' and 'v' are in SRS_a_hp and SRS_v_hp (audio or video perhaps)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] krzych:
Illogical. v is much better considering quality.

On my LeeDroid all works as described. I'm happy not to be forced to install PowerAMP to have SRS switch. Great job.

Someone willing to make GUI for this?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] io53:
I actually made an app for it awhile back, but I lost it in a hard disk crash. I might do another one if I get free time and a sudden strike of inspiration. Or someone else could do it, it is very easy :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Quiksilver78:
I think the V is for Virtual Room sound, because I hear a bit of reverb when using any of the _v_ settings

Dolby_v_hp

SRS_v_hp

Which I find a bit annoying so I prefer the _a_ settings :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] krzych:
I would be very grateful for the GUI, even better for the sources :D (I'm trying to start learning android developmnet but still no time for independent reasons), but without sources it suits me too :)

About v as virtual room - may be. I'll test it at my sound system at home soon. But for plain "computer" speakers, v is right now much better, and if there is a reverb, it's not audible on such low quality speakers.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] cubases:
I tried now! It work perfectly in my DHD MIUI stable version.

A question:

My favorite settings I'll get them after the reboot, or I'll have to redo it again?

Am I wrong or does not seem to me that they can add more than one? For example, if chose bass boost as firts, and treble boost as second, remains the last and first disappears. Although this happens to you?

I don't flashed .zip file...
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Max399:
Hey, thanks for the awesome tweak, but i have some problems, im using MIUI 1.10.8 and LordModUE kernel, and GScript method. But everytime i disconnect my headphones, it resets to default, so i have to reapply the GScript, same happens after a call, have to reapply it. Is there any way to make it default? So it doesent reset everytime. Thanks.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] lieuliau:
I'm using ARHD 6.1.2. I used snd3254 -dspmode from Terminal with every mode but I didn't see any different. Do I need to flash .zip file attach at the first page?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Which miui Rom are you using? Sci?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
The latest 3.0 leak may not be supported.. I have to test it out and let you know :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Max399:
No, its the original one from http://miuiandroid.com/

Currently on 1.10.8, and it still happens.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] m47ze:
thanks man...good work! :D

runs perfectly on my cm 7.1 fueled dhd :)

the difference i recognized between 'a' and 'v' srs is a virtual hall effect as mentioned above...i don't like it because music has to sound clear and detailed :D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] xdgzm:
I opened Terminal Emulator after flashing snd3254.zip, wrote su, entered, wrote snd3254 -dspmode, and saw the menu from 00 to 25. But after that whatever number i wrote, got the same result : "not found". Anyone to help me please?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] mohammadsp:
thanks?

does it work on latest 3.06 leak firend?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
I don't have an EVO so i can't really test, but the hardware is different so I'd assume there would be a different method to do this

Which rom are you running?

Yep, it should work fine :)

Good job. It works perfectly and I'm really happy.

I'm not sure how stupid is the question I'm asking but should I run the script everytime that I restart my phone or once you run the script the changes made are permenant? just noticed a difference in quality from last night and I'm not sure if I will screw up my sound adjustments if I run the script again and again. :confused:

Hi,

gsmarena.com expects an official Gingerbread OTA Update for the Z within the next few days. :) The rollout of 2.3.3 for DHD and Incredible has already started.

Since i am a big fan of Sense, i´d like to hear your opinion on how long it may until we see a nice Virtous version for our beloved Z´s?

Cheers,

As soon as a stable release is released and the developer deems it suitable for a virtuous release. So probably not any time soon.

When I go out for a jog I take my HD with me for music and RunKeeper but I miss the wristband case I used to use for the iphone. The HD does not fit in there so I can't use that.

Does anyone know of a wristband type of case for the HD? Perhaps not spec. for the HD?

Cheers!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maikel16:
I don't think there's a wristband case for the desire hd yet ;). Maybe invent the idea hehe.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
But there are arm band holders (go around your upper arm rather than wrist (is a big phone to have attached to wrist!!)). Saw one in the local superstore but in your country you will just have to search. Google will be your friend.

Previously I would normally get the message that your screen resolution is not supported.

So anyone who have already signed up for Swype beta can install a working official version of swype for Wildfire.

Please link anyway, I at least want to try and mess with it to get perhaps Dutch working ;-)

I ame a bit reluctant for using it, don't see how swype can be so good. But afther all does good comments I think I give it a try!
[Wildfire General] Skye Menjou:
I was very skeptical about it aswell but when I started using it for a while it really gets faster to type and I cant miss it.

I have an older customized version with English and Dutch/French + few other languages that works with the Wildfire perfectly.

Downside the apps is 5 MB because of the languages.

PM me if you want it.
