excellent fix. Removed the extra zero and worked great.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wmblalock:
It looks like mine is going to the rma department .. I spent hours working on mine but I can't get even close to balanced volume without distortion in the left speaker. :(

I got it from newegg and i have to send it back first to get exchanged so that sucks, ill wait until I am close to the 30 day mark in hopes of a different batch.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] xBryan:
thanks this worked great
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:
I played with the settings but never got it to my satisfaction.

I can get it to balance but it distorted at higher level, lower level no distort

but can barely hear the speakers.

Finally extracted the srs_processing.cfg from the 3.0.1 backup

and pushed that to the 3.1 Prime ROM. Now I'm happy.:D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wmblalock:
Can you post that file that made you happy? I have the same issue, I can get the left volume balanced but too much distortion unless I lower the overall volume. Id like to give the file you used a try before I rma!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:
Here

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16959871/srs_processing.cfg
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wmblalock:
Ok, well you saved me an RMA! This could be sort of a "break through" in finding the cause of this problem. I thought it was hardware and was ready to RMA until you gave me that file. I don't have time to analyze and compare the two but I have attached them both here.

The srs_processing.cfg.txt file I attached is the one you provided in the link above, except that I increased each of the left speaker gains by +3. This file originated from your stock 3.0.1 Transformer. My speakers are now balanced and have no distortion.

The srs_processingok.cfg.txt file I attached is my "original, rooted, prime 1.4" srs_processing.cfg file with each of the left speaker gains increased by +3. It gave me all sorts of distortion and made me want to RMA the tablet. With this file, I tried messing with it for hours and could never get the distortion to go away and make balance sound.

If someone wants to compare the two files and try to figure it out, go for it. I am just glad I don't have to RMA.. unless the left speaker dies that is :-)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wmblalock:
Oh yeah, and I forgot to ask, does anyone know why each speaker has bands 0, 1,2, and 3? What is the difference between the bands? Is one highs, one mids, one lows, etc or what? This would help me fine tune the left speaker a tad more if I knew in general what each band represented!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jwilliamf:
Sir,

I am using the srs_processing.cfg.txt you post it and WOW!!! Big different from stock.

Problem Solve for me!!!!

Thank you!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Freelancerx:
i think it still depends on the hardware, i used the same file and i get distortion at the highest volume, just changed it so that instead of +3 there is only +2 im hoping that fixes it. also my left speaker was louder then my right haha

just wanted to come back and say that making those adjustments, (+2 instead of +3) has made the balance perfect and i have zero distortion.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Qazme:
I did the settings on the first page and got volume + set at +5dB. It sounds nice, even, and louder. Thanks for the fix guys you don't know how happy it makes me. ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Underwater Mike:
Tried this and it's MUCH better than before. Not perfect, but better. Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] douglasjboehme:
I'm actually on my 2nd Transformer. The first version was so low on the left that I could barely hear it and the new one just has a bit of a balance issue. I would suggest that anyone that has a very bad balance issue to return for a replacement. Also, the previous version had an overall lower volume whereas the newer one is much louder.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wmblalock:
I am still getting some low end distortion on both of my speakers, not sure if it's normal or not. I am probably going to get mine exchanged and see how that goes
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] slopokdave:
I'm using the settings in the 1st post. It's much better, but could maybe still use some more volume in the left side.

Any suggested settings? Thanks!

Edit: I've played around and still cannot get it any better. I think it's actually good, just the volume of the right could actually come down some. I did a left/right sample on youtube and my left is definitely working but also still definitely quieter.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] slopokdave:
FYI Update... The settings here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14453866&postcount=18

Worked better for me. Nearly perfect now!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Underwater Mike:
I took these and tweaked a bit. About as perfect as I can get it.

Thanks all! :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] avpmusic:
how about you post your perfect settings?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AlexTheStampede:
I think every TF is different. For example the file linked a couple of post above give me... a loud left speaker that overpowers the right one! Fixed that by increasing the right channels values by 3.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dazz87:
Just want to verify. Using the ADB method one does not have to be rooted correct?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sic_lic1o1:
My left speaker is louder than my right speaker too. Can you post your fixed for that? I still dont know which numbers to increase.

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:
You need root to access system folder
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Underwater Mike:
My left was louder, too, so I tweaked with the attached file. Since I don't know WTH I am doing, I was surprised that the result was nearly perfect for my transformer. See how this file works for you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AlexTheStampede:
Again, I think every single TF has a different degree of this issue... but posting it won't hurt.

That's all I changed from the file here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14453866&postcount=18

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] caaznkid:
Hello here's my question. My transformer doesn't really have a problem with balance...but just the left speaker. The left speaker distorts and makes a crackling sound and I'm not quite sure how to deal with it. Anybody find a possible solution?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] argie:
I simply copied the edited cfg and replaced the original one. It's worked perfectly... and the sound from both speakers is now balanced and louder.

Thanks freeza...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fin05:
My right speaker has absoutely no sound out of it. It worked fine until I flashed with the prime custom rom. I have tried to adjust the cfg file and no luck. I have also tried flashing different roms. Please help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:
did you do a nandroid back up? restore see if still broken, could be hardware problems
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] bukithd:
I used the Root explorer method with ease. I played with the numbers a bit and all is well now. I recommend paying 3 bucks for it. Its a lot less headache for the cost.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] supercurio:
Hi!

Did somebody open his Transformer and look at the speakers and what it's plugged to?

WM8903 doesn't have a speaker driver (amp) so I guess it's an external component on the transformer board.

It's probably where the problem is. If somebody find it and if it's controllable via some bus, I might be able to fix the issue for real and increase the output volume.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] superevilllama:
I am on my 2nd TF. This one sounds closest to normal right out of the box, however the left side is louder than the right. Can someone post a file raising the volume on the right side please? I have been messing around with different files and settings and haven't fixed it yet.

Thanks guys!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fin05:
yes i did a restore and it work until i pressed the volume up button and it quit again
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Adkinson:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] c0bra99:
Thanks everyone, When I first got the transformer I thought... Does this only have 1 speaker?

Using a combination of a few files given here I have it sounding great now!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] littlebitstrouds:
Is there a chance that my transformer shipped with a bad internal connection? My left speaker worked for a while, then stopped working and occationally chimes in for about 2 seconds before shutting off again. I've tried every modification and am using roms which come with the fixed cfg file built in.

I've updated to 3.2 (well, Prime! 1.7 actually) and I've noticed there's now 2 files in /system/data: "srs_processing.cfg" and "srs_processing_SL101.cfg".

I edited the first one but should I also edit the "SL101" one as well?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] steftolo:
Same for me. I would like to know because my left speaker no longer works.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rpavich:
Mine is this way...I think I don't even have a left speaker, but only sound from the right side making me think I do....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] white_devil:
These settings made a huge improvement, thanks. Both of my speakers are still lower than I'd like though, anyone know what I can do to increase the volume?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] deadman3000:
The speakers are puny and distort at higher levels. Also they can blow (Like mine did and I had to RMA it). If you can afford it get one of these. I know it's something extra to carry but it apparently sounds amazing.

Using prime 1.7 and have the same problem. guide on page 1 don´t work for me.

someone has a soloution?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dazz87:
in which method does it not work? ADB? I remember when I flashed to 1.7 beta I couldnt push the file. It gave me an error. You could ES File Explorer and open up the file and edit the value and then save it. Reboot after you saved your new value
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] CyberMicha:
Oh sorry. I used the file edit way =)

I think it depends on android 3.2 because there are 2 files in the data folder.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kodakeos:
I was working on this today, trying to fix it like it was on 3.1, i thought I had not changed something.

Lets try and figure out how this file plays into it and how to get L/R balance achived in 3.2!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] deadman3000:
It's already been mentioned. The other files are for the Transformer slate etc and are not used by the TF101. They are just leftovers from lazy Asus devs.

For me its my right speaker that doesn't work, I triedfiddling with the settingsfor right but didn't make a difference. I'm using revolvers latest rom
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rob77:
Thanks to all who have provided the fix. Would this mean I have to adjust the setting every time I flash a rom? I'm thinking I might just RMA it as its obviously faulty if I'm having to fix it every time. Cheers
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kodakeos:
Every time, and most of the times you flash kernels too.

Mines got no light bleed and i hardly use the speakers so its easier to swap 1 file, than it is to RMA the unit for 2-3 weeks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rob77:
Man that sucks. I'm based in the uk and it was bought from large electrical retailer over here. I'm going to give them a ring tomorrow and see if they will swap rather than RMA it. How do you check for light bleed, just Google a pure black imagine and look at it full screen?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Camaros_Kill:
On my tf, the defaultfixed file doesnt change much, if anything at all. The editedfixed file makes the sound much more balanced, but i feel like now the left is actually a tiny bit louder than the right. Guess im gonna have to tweak a little but for now this was a huge improvement.

EDIT!!!!!!!! While i was playing a video with a Carrera GT (a car known for its high frequency Formula 1 sounding engine) i was getting some left speaker distortion when the car would rev. I was just about to turn it down when the left speaker made a "pop" sound and shut off. I thought i blew it but i decided to hit it to see if itd come back on, and IT DID. However, now the sound will go on/off on my left speaker when i hit it, shake it, or even when too loud of a sound comes out. Im assuming sound vibrations around the speaker are causing that. SO, my thought is that Asus had the volume turned down deliberately (missing zero, anyone? ;)) on certain tf101 left speakers because of some physical fault with hardware/wiring? Either that or the volume is low because something is physically wrong with the connection. The odd thing is i never had the speaker go out until i played that video with the mod. I dont know what to make of it but i want to take it apart to see if its a pinched wire or something. Unfortunately i bought a squaretrade warranty for it and dont want to void it. I think im gonna live with it for now and wait for the TF2 to come out then get my money back from squaretrade...bummer because i was in love with this thing and ive had it for a while now. UGH

If ur the only person with that phone and that problem, ur phone is broken or ur rom needs a reflash(or i guess it could be a crappy rom too) but if ur not the only one with that problem, you shouldnt be posting here.

---------- Post added at 06:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

Does setting the hard limiter to 0(disabling it) make the max volume louder? Not sure what you meant in this part of the OP.

Edit: with my above edit, i dont care for the answer to this anymore, lol.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] chaotic646:
Thanks you so much to everyone involved with figuring out this fix. I used the values posted in the op and it worked perfectly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] outerdepth:
This worked perfectly!!

Thanks so much to the OP. You are awesome. I kinda thought for a hot minute that I had a bunk pad. Glad to see upping those values got my volume levels fairly even. I might play with them as stated in the 1st post, regardless, this worked out perfectly. Thank you again.:cool:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatchick1o9:
Thx baseballfanz, wmblalock, freeza & everyone else that contributed here.

I was just about to take my TR101-X1 apart to check the speaker, when I decided to do a quick Google search about Asus Transformer Speaker. Which led me here and to a modified SRS config that fixed my issue. :) woohoo!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] bcstolte:
Did also worked perfect for my Slider! Same annoying problem, but gone forever now!

Thanks!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frdurso:
Sad Discovery

Also started to play around with the values in my Slider, and the left speaker started to become louder, but in the middle of the process, I decided to play 2 .mp3s that I created some time ago, to quickly find left and right channels in my car sound... simple recorded 2 mp3, one only with left channel and the other only with right channel, I want to rear each speaker at a time to better realize the sound diferences between both, and for my surprise (and disappointment) both files have played on both speakers.... so the conclusion was obvious, the Slider sound is mono... so, doesn't matter if one speaker is louder than the other since the sound is equal on both... really, really, really sad....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] bosert:
Despite all the settings nicely shared here, I still haven't found the perfect setup. It is or too much on the left or on the right.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Sharpe351:
Thanks for this. Your settings fixed my speaker issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatchick1o9:
so I took my transformer apart ~7 days ago and I can tell you exactly what the issue/problem is. When Asus designed the transformer they placed the Left speaker slightly further behind the screen (more "rightly inboard") than the right speaker was placed. Also, the Right speaker is situated behind the rear panel and is covered (on the inside) by a rubberized aluminum sheet that directs more of the sound "forward" and is dampening some of the sound from conducting through the rear plastic panel. Asus really dropped the ball on the desigh of the internal sound system. The internal sound system is about the only thing the Acer Iconia has going for it it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] SiNJiN76:
Damn You! Why you step on my hopes like that! /s :p

So...now I'm wondering...if this fix is good for the left speaker. Will it 'blow' the speaker sooner?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatchick1o9:
Ok, so to be honest I really don't think you have to worry too much about "blowing the speaker" prematurely. If all you do is use one of the SRS_config files here in this thread, which adjusts the Freq's and bumps up the Db of the left speaker a little bit, you should be just fine. It's not like you are overdriving the speaker, you're just tweaking it a bit. As long as the speaker is not crackling and sounds distorted...you should be just fine.

Trust me...im not happy about it either. I want the Asus design + screen + level of quality, but i want the Acer Iconia speakers/soundsystem. I am working on getting my hands on an eBay special broke screen Iconia so I can pull the speakers and retrofit them into the ASUS. It will take a little work but should yeild good results.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] SiNJiN76:
Cool...thanks for the reassurance. Gonna give it a go.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] zedorda:
When you get the Iconia taken apart check the thickness of the speakers. I have heard but haven't seen that they are almost 2mm thicker than the TF speakers. I have a borked Iconia I would consider opening if it works for u. Please report back.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatchick1o9:
yeah I've already looked at the Iconia speakers. They are a tad bigger and "chambered" to produce lower freqs. But I do a lot of fabrication (plastics, polymers and metal) so I have a plan to rework the back of the transformer to make some room.

I just have to stop getting outbid on eBay auctions of broken Iconias. All I need is the speaker modules.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] visor66:
thank you very much for this solution. I used the OP settings for my right speaker. It worked out very well.
