[HTC EVO 3D] dvdee:
This happens to me with the HTC player, Double Twist and Winamp. It basically skips songs, randomly stops the music, when I shut the screen off it would stop the htc player and winamp would play. There's so many weird things happening, and they all affect the music.

Google Music is AWESOMENESS!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] kingsway8605:
I had this problem. I downloaded mp3tag on my PC. Click on file>add directory and add your music folder. After your music loads, scroll right to the "codec" heading,and click on the heading to sort by codec. I am not sure what codecs htc's player supports, but I deleted anything that wasn't "MPEG 1 Layer III" (mp3 is actually an abbreviation for this codec). This solved all of the problems you mentioned for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] jigabits:
Hi guys, long time listener, first time poster.

I thought I would share my experience with the music app. I'm also having issues, but it only seems to be buggy when my aux cable is plugged from the headphone jack to the car. The music will skip as if I'm fast forwarding through the track and will eventually start skipping whole songs. I've also noticed when the phone goes into the lock screen, the music widget that appears has both the "play" and "forward" buttons highlighted as if I'm pressing them. Clearly I'm not pressing them. It also bugs out with Google Music Beta, though the app doesn't have a lock screen widget, yet. I have yet to try other music apps beside the two I mentioned. I will report back with any findings.

Thanks for having me.
[HTC EVO 3D] jigabits:
After a couple days of searching and reading, looks like it's a bug with the headphone jack. The phone is reading headphones/aux cable as a control device. The Nexus One, Incredible and a few other phones had this issue when they launched. mrjkwik has posted a link to a fix in another thread, but here it is again.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15302923&postcount=4

Works for me so far, until HTC can roll out another update. Hopefully they do soon. The link to the market is for a widget, so place it on one of your home screens and make sure it's on before listening to music.

[EVO 4G General] cg 112358:
I'm pretty sure the official release was June 3rd, so that would make it 28 days into the 30. The second OTA was more like a patch to fix a few bugs. The 1st on was the major upgrade with new bootloader and kernel. So hopefully we'll get it in the next couple of days

[HTC Sensation] ariochenigma:
This app seems to be solving the issue with a low volume notification speaker. I find that the VR settings works the best and I notice a SIGNIFICANT difference.

volume+.apk 1.7.0
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
What are the appropriate settings? Like an average level boost?
[HTC Sensation] GorillaPimp:
I'm playing with it now. So far VR just gives a super tinny distorted sound. My preference for speaker is EQ on treble boost, bass enhance on +4 and volume level @ +8 for SRS. For ringtones I have it set to eq=goodquality, bassenhance=+3 and Volume=+8.

Stock ringtones don't require any fine tuning and sound pretty good regardless of setting but if you use music files with vocals you're not gonna be happy without playing around to find your preference. You're going to want to keep bass low no matter what with this speaker.

I haven't messed with the settings beneath that which seem to be fine tuning eq controls.

[HTC Sensation] greengoldmello:
I believe that is warez, because i just paid for volume+ yesterday..
[HTC Sensation] Derek0228:
Not warez. Volume+ is free on the dev's website, it supposedly has less features than the market version...
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Yep! this is listed at the bottom of the market page:
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I saw that option as well, but I figured I'd pay for it if it worked, which it does...well.

I have no problems paying for it. The dev worked hard to get this working and out on the market for us impatient hard hearing owners lol....
[HTC Sensation] greengoldmello:
Oh ok, my mistake.
[HTC Sensation] trilaxx:
Ya this worked really well, i d/l the app from the site but ill go and buy this. Really big improvement when using speaker phone and on a call.

[HTC Sensation] eliyunam:
still playing with the settings but works great so far.
[HTC Sensation] EyeAndroid:
I can't say that this works for speakerphone. I see the sound differences when playing music and ringtones but there is absolutely no difference on a call.

When on a call in speakerphone, try turning bass up and down, volume up and down etc. You will see it doesn't respond to anything.
[HTC Sensation] GorillaPimp:
Just wait for the volume mod from the evo3d to get released for the sensation. Unlocking may come first though.
[HTC Sensation] mynlal:
The download file is a ZIP file and there is no apk in there. Can someone please guide me on how to install Volume+
[HTC Sensation] GbNoR:
Just rename the zip file from zip to apk.(VolumePlus1.7.0.zip to

VolumePlus1.7.0.apk) :)
[HTC Sensation] mynlal:
Awesome Thanks, works like a charm now.
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
perhaps the developer got a wind of it and changed it but I just downloaded it and it's a APK file.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I have to disagree. My wake alarm which uses the speakerphone was pretty low as the app setting was to read on loud. After upping the speaker and headset settings to the max volume, it wasn't bazooka tube loud thump but it was loud enough to wake me up :).

[HTC Sensation] omar302:
When increasing the volume, has anyone noticed that the busy tone signal becomes too high?

Ear poping high especialy since you have the phone next to your ear while you are expecting a ring signal instead.
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
I tried this and found no difference while on a call using the speaker phone.
[HTC Sensation] djmaz:

Edit; ignore that ^ it now works :)
[HTC Sensation] EyeAndroid:
@ Shorty87

Thank you! That's exactly what I was saying! I'm surprised that more people aren't concerned with this. I thought this was the main gripe people had with this phone and this was the whole reason why this thread was started.
[HTC Sensation] NRGZ28:
What I dont understand is why a 500-600 dollar phone such as this, has audio problems out of the box! It's ridiculous that my free nokia phone sounds better...:/
[HTC Sensation] Kurisu87:
i hear a very slight difference when vr effects is on and thats its, nothing ti jizz in my pants for mind.
[HTC Sensation] fixxxer2008:
this new update is amazing... makes a huge difference on my thunderbolt!
[HTC Sensation] EyeAndroid:
Well I don't think that the external speaker was their primary concern here, instead it was dual core, 4.3 inch slcd display, 8px and everything else that makes a great smartphone. The reality of it is, no phone has it all. Its always going to be lacking in a few departments. Is this the best phone I've ever had? Absolutely. Do I care if my speakerphone isn't all that awesome. Nope. Way more pros then cons here.

In the nokias case, yes the speakerphone may be better, but that's about all it has going for it. Try to download an app, get directions, browse the web, take a super sharp picture, stream some music and then you start looking at it like a prehistoric old fashioned cell phone.

I guess its all about what's most important to some people. If a super loud speakerphone is your primary concern then you might wanna get an LG g2x. But as long as your ok with all of the glitches and random reboots, that may be the best phone for you.
[HTC Sensation] hah2110:
Anyone have recommended settings? Is advanced needed? What do I mess with to increase earpiece sound? Are there instructions somewhere?
[HTC Sensation] greengoldmello:
Tbh, a good g2x doesn't have that many more problems than the sensation..

But back on topic

It's very hard to get the ultimate phone. There will, in most cases, be something that your last phone did better. The g2x had a better amp than this phone, but this phone on a whole is a better experience. Just have to deal with it.
[HTC Sensation] draganus:
I am looking towards someone who can answer this. So far Sensation have lowest sound quality playing on my headphones from i4 and G2X.
[HTC Sensation] greengoldmello:
Thats the exact feeling I have. It's not that the quality is worse per se, its just that the amp isn't driving like the other two. I'm looking into getting a portable amp
[HTC Sensation] kabuk1:
Maybe I just have supersonic hearing or something, but I've had the sound problems everyone else is talking about. My phone isn't like ear-splittingly loud or anything, but ringtones, phone calls, and music are plenty loud. I installed Volume+ anyway after reading through this thread, and it actually made my phone quieter & more muffled. Weird.
[HTC Sensation] GorillaPimp:
Volume+ has been crashing when I make phone calls and when I watch video. Weird. Acting very different on this phone. Same app version.
[HTC Sensation] HashTagHell:
(Looks at section name, looks back at comment, then back at the section name)

[HTC Sensation] NRGZ28:
Save the preaching for the n00bs. I've been around smartphones long enough that I definitely know what you're talking about, without needing a lenghty explanation on what a smartphone can or can't do.

What I was referring to, was the earpiece being so low and underpowered, not the speakphone. That's a VERY important part of having a smartphone. While I may be able to stream music, play videos and browse the web (I can do all that with a Nokia smartphone, while getting GREAT call quality), if I can't hear the other party while I'm talking on the phone, then all those features are wasted on nice harware, but lacking basic phone functionality.
[HTC Sensation] paulove:
Hi NRGZ28

Do you have, or planning to get a Sensation?

I LOVED your roms for the Touch HD, really hoping you will join the Sensation devs.

Thnx for all the great work on the Touch HD it made the phone awsome!!! :D

paulove :)
[HTC Sensation] MarlinFF:
It definitely helps! For those who cannot tell a difference, check the "Turn on VR Effects" and you will definitely notice something :P

I only put my Volume Level on +6 because I don't want to harm my speakers any.
[HTC Sensation] benchproductions:
volume on music sounds a lot better and louder. However the app keeps crashing every time i receive a phone call.

This is very annoying because you first have to click the force close notification before you can answer the call.

Anybody else with this issue? Any solution? Maybe change the setting?

turned on Speaker Modifications, eq on drum n bass, volume level on +6, no bass enhance, VR effects enabled

Actually... I'm using it only for kill google apps (maps, rss reader, ...) on Mik's Cyanagon and there is not problem at all.

Because I'm using google maps time to time and some time I forget to kill app and killer do it instead of me. When I not kill it, it kill my battery much quickly than killer itself....

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MadDogMaddux:
So for some time I've been working on a theme for Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo. By some time I mean "since the middle of January". I'm a bit late to the show, but I've finally managed to cram enough time into it to get things where I'm fairly happy with them.

The whole theme is inspired by the idea of turning the buttons in the drop-down notifier panel into toggle switches. From there I went with a whole late-70s retro hi-fi and electronics theme.

Features:

Tumbler-style battery meter, complete with rolling animations for every percentile!

Old Sony-style LCD screens for information panels

Clear-plastic back-lit buttons

Toggles!!!!

Copious amounts of faux-leather plastic surfaces!

Here's a few screenshots:

Download it here!!!

ADDITIONALLY:

HERE is the link to ALL of my graphics files, xml files, etc. It's over 50MB of stuff that any developer is welcome to use for building themes, etc. Please be my guest!

Included are all the various graphic files used in this theme, .xml files for the rolling tumbler battery meter, a bucket-load of .xcf files for GiMP which contain the various layers and options for most of the graphics I've built, and the raw graphics I used to assemble what I've built.

FINALLY:

If any Dev looks through this stuff and figures out how to alter the CHARGING code for the rolling tumbler battery to make the throbber AFTER the tumble-animation work, please let me know as I'd really like to incorporate it in an update.

At this point I'm going to try to put together a theme with all this for Synergy, but it may take some time - so I definitely encourage anyone who is interested to take what you like and have a go at it.

Enjoy!
