/system/ect/init.d/90call_vol to be exact. ;)

Use root explorer to edit the file, I change all values to 2 and it works good, not too loud, lol, lines in the file to change are:

INCALL_BOOST_EARPIECE=0

INCALL_BOOST_BLUETOOTH=0

INCALL_BOOST_SPEAKER=1

INCALL_BOOST_HEADPHONE=0

Change 0,0,1,0 to 2,2,2,2 then save file and reboot, calls should be nice and loud(er). :)

Has anyone tried changing values to 3? :eek: LOL

Volume tweak sorta works with Semaphore. Here's how - increase volume to 3 in init.d. Then open Voodoo Control and set to +5db. I had to set Voodoo volume to +2db to avoid speaker crackling.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfantryMarc:
I use volume + which works well. It has a setting to up in call volume, boost speaker volumes, and headset volume. You can download it from the marketplace or you can download the pro version. Hope it helps

[HTC One X] techmatlock:
I have a pair of basshead headphones and was trying to listen to music, but even turning up the media volume all the way to the end the sound quality was mediocre. Couldn't hear barely any mids or highs and the bass wasn't being driven enough. Only tested on google music -- don't want to have to buy a 3rd party music player just to boost the sound (poweramp, voodoo).

Reason its a little bit of a disappointment is when you listen to a lot of music and enjoy quality sound, spending nearly $700 on a phone you expect it to be able to perform sound quality wise.

What are your guys thoughts on sound quality? I want to play most of my music through google music and if I'm out where I don't want to be streaming, just load playlists in the default music player.
[HTC One X] ext109:
Try to go to menu -> audio enhancements. There you can find in the top-left corner a menu to choose which headphone you have. Default it will be on "others" (at least I think it's called others, it's called overig in Dutch), but if you select beats urBeats or beats tour, depending on which ROM/version you are on, it sounds much better. I agree, it sounds like crap default :(. The beats selection WILL work on other headphones. I use it on both my Sony over-ear and my Shure in-ear.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
I don't own a pair of beats headphobes, but it gives it enhanced audio? The beats audio is turned on which is just a mediocre bass heavy eq.
[HTC One X] treebill:
Above is right by default its set to other which sucks change it to the other profiles.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Ok, thanks guys.
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Not being an Arsehole, but do you have decent Earphones/Headphones?

My Marley Zions I use to listen to music on my One X and I usually have to listen to it with the volume at like 70% to prevent my head rattling from the Sound/Bass (May be a slight exaggerateion) I'm actually very impressed with the One X sound quality :)
[HTC One X] HoboTheLegend:
Default beats profile seems to be the best for me with Razer Orcas. Of course,I'm no audiophile by any stretch of the imagination so I could be wrong
[HTC One X] adamgaltress:
I have £15 headphones and they have great bass and sound quality. Incredible when you compare them to the stock headphones especially for the price!
[HTC One X] OysterCatcheRR:
Same, I have some AiAiAi TMA-1s and I think audio on the One X is great. Far better than on any other phone I have owned
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Ah, yeah of course, the stock headphones are a joke, kind of insulting HTC even included them in the Box.

I paid quite a bit for my Earphones as I love my music, and I've used them on many Phones and I cannot fault the One X audio quality :)
[HTC One X] Radiognome:
I have worked in recording studios most of my life and can honestly say that Beats headphones are just a gimmick. If music was intended to sound this way what a shallow experience it would be. If you buy a £30 set of Sennheiser PX100 II's they will out perform beats by a mile and thats on, no enhancer and headphones other under settings. Go into any hifi shop and give them an audition.
[HTC One X] TommUK:
I second that, they aren't 'crap' they just aren't as good as they hype, I bought a pair.

one day later, I was returning them and buying my Awesome Marley zions :D
[HTC One X] Zesotar:
Hi to all!

What do you think about the external speaker? To me, it's nearly 0 improvement from HTC Desire. More over, I think the Desire sounds louder (just for high frecuencies).

It's true that the mids frecuencies are clearer on the One X, but I expected more quality.
[HTC One X] brent8577:
It sounds good on mine with no effects and sennheiser ie8. It's not cowon but beats Samsung. I think your problem is your headphones.
[HTC One X] Albert Poon:
It is not just about how original it sounds compared to the source, it is also about the taste of the listener. End of debate.
[HTC One X] Radiognome:
Possibly the end of the debate, but the One X is biased completely towards beats, just look at the volumne difference. If you switch beats off the volumne drops by a huge amount, this is all to lure the listener into selecting the beats profile. what is needed is a graphic equaliser built into the player so the listener can adjust the sound for the best experience.
[HTC One X] coupduberger:
I have a pair of in-ear cx870, and Beats Audio with the urbeats profile is definitely the best to boost most music; otherwise, "no effects" works fine. However, even though I'm no audiophile, my SGS with Voodoo did sound better...
[HTC One X] thegregulator:
I'm no audiophile either, but the beats enhancer sounds great with my Audio Technica M50's.
[HTC One X] kutbinahar:
Hii

I am using beats which are duplicate not even original and the bass is extremely high nd clear what i did is i flashed dsp manager of android made their 2 settings 1st i kept bass enhancements on nd level extreme nd 2nd i enabled the equalizer nd kept bass boost

Nd in the htc stock music player i kept sound enhancements on beats nd selected headphones beatsurbeats

Now sound is really fantastic even more more better than xperia s
[HTC One X] Sckank:
I also think the sound quality is excellent. I had a samsung s2, sounded awful, even with a fiio e11 connected. I listened to music only twice in 6 months with that phone :( But now its all good again, I'm impressed :) fiio e11 and sennheiser 25-1 II
[HTC One X] treebill:
For all you sound geeks lol get on good for dps manager I downloaded it and just changed the equalizer as bass boost made it lose the highs, now my cheap tenner head phones have pounding bass lol.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
It's not my headphones; I got beyerdynamic dt 770 pro 80s that are one of the best bass cans on the market. I'm not even going to get into Dr dre beats, but all I can say is you can be getting so much more for that kind of money.

I got to try out dsp manager - that's from the cyanogenmod team right? I might buy a fiio 10 if im not pleased with the sound boost because I don't need bass boost.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Nice, I bought a pair of replica Dr dre beat studios with the same build quality and sound from China. I didn't like the fact that I needed aaa batteries and the bass was way too punchy. My ears were fatigued within 30 minutes.

If anyone wants to buy the real deal replica Dr dre beats, let me know and ill send the link to the supplier out of China that sells the highest quality beats (I bought my studios for $80). They sell all the Dr dre beats and even more that nobody can get.
[HTC One X] treebill:
Yeh its a cm thing pretty cool you can change equalizer, bass boost, dynamic compression and some virtual room sounds (stero, large room ect.)

Thank you treebill.
[HTC One X] vickytom:
I am using my old Shure SE530s and the sound through those is superb; far better than anything else I've used. I can hear plenty of mid range and bass is balanced, rather than booming. However, they were expensive when I bought them, so I'd expect a good sound-even from a smartphone! ;)
[HTC One X] husenicaa:
You made me laugh. ATH-M 50 and no audiophile.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Quality is fine but not as good as Wolfson Voodoo'd. Quality via Bluetooth is a tad better by using the aptX codec.

I've got TDK BA200 quite expensive IEMs and HOX sounds fine with them via headphone out and via bluetooth aptX devices.

However the SGS Voodoo'd trumps both :)
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
Anyone in this thread notice the hissing and audio pops after sound is played?
[HTC One X] slapshot30:
This. If you wanted a legitimate music playing phone you should've waited for the sgsIII. It has the beloved wolfson + voodoo.
[HTC One X] rs1982:
Try running your mp3 files through stereo tool... check in google
[HTC One X] P1n3apqlExpr3ss:
Just tried running the HOX through a pair of Logitech Z623s, you can tell the difference between the phone and the PC but the phone's quality isn't terrible at all (my other 3.5mm cable is also a bit messed up so it can only get better)
[HTC One X] EmperorK:
I have Westone UM2s and I have to say that the audio quality of any phone is frankly, laughable, compared to even a basic iRiver or Cowon designated music player.

I think the fact that nobody seems to really care about hardware all that much, apart from Nokia (who sadly can't get software right due to their ridiculous decision to go from Symbian to the horror that is windows phone) and go for mono speakers on their phones shows just how much these companies really care about sound.

Granted, they promote beats audio, but that's only really because HTC are the majority shareholder of it.

Saying that, the quality is above average for a phone as you would expect for a flagship, but don't even begin to compare it to a real music player.
[HTC One X] slapshot30:
You ever tried a Galaxy device with that Wolfson DAC + voodoo? I compared mine with my Cowon J3 and the Galaxy did a damn good job. Better than any other phone I've tried. It powered my Ultrasones to a pretty high volume while retaining pretty good sound quality. Why let the iPhone users have all the fun and let them have a music player + phone combo? Samsung is looking to change that. HTC is utterly terrible. Beats does nothing, simply a marketing ploy and SOFTware enhancement. Not even a hardware related feature...
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Haha I know. The commercials for Dr dre beats they try to show them installing this prized hardware in your phone or laptop.
[HTC One X] slapshot30:
Hands down, great marketing ploy though. The average user doesn't know how overpriced and overhyped the beats line is, it just looks cool to them. Funny thing here, the stock gingerbread rom on the vivid didn't have beats or anything like that. Then on the ICS stock rom, beats was magically integrated. :p
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Haha nice. I'll admit that they do have the best design imo. Comfort, sound, and build quality - nope.
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Lol, A phone isn't supposed to be a boombox...

Just use a good set of earphones/Headphones
[HTC One X] schiphol:
I think you guys are expecting too much out of the sgs3. I still have an i9000 with the wolfson dac and voodoo and did a comparison with my hox using high-fidelty earphones (Etymotic hf-5). The key to a proper test is to use the same player (non-stock and no beats etc) and the proper quality music files on both devices. I used player pro.

I found that although the i9000 with voodoo can really blow out your ears, there is precious little difference otherwise. The hox is certainly not as bad as some in here are claiming. The real audiophile is not going to use either phone to listen to his music.
[HTC One X] raduch:
I agree with you,the sound quality is really good
[HTC One X] treebill:
You can improve it with dpsmanager :) I agree too the sound is much better then my last phone and better than my iPod.
[HTC One X] gyako:
I don't know why, but when I disable Beats while listening to music using the default player the difference is clear. But when I'm using another player (PlayerPro, for instance) it doesn't seem to change anything.

Do you use dspmanager with Beats disabled?
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
My HOX is excellent sound quality & volume - using beats urbeats.

I use spotify premium (320kbps) & DI.fm (256kbps) & I think they sound great for a phone.

It's never gonna compare to an expensive home kit, but for a phone - excellent.
[HTC One X] NZtechfreak:
I had an extended listen today comparing my One X (Beats on and off) Vs a Photon (no Voodoo) and an ASUS Transformer (Voodoo'd) and the One X disappoints Vs both (particularly the Voodoo'd Transformer). When you don't A/B it like that it sounds good enough not to offend, but it is not flattered with direct comparison and it's not a patch on anything with a Wolfson (unless you like horrid overblown bass via Beats, which clearly some do).
[HTC One X] treebill:
i find beats doesn't make the bass that high at all, it mostly boosts the sound by a few decibels, thats why i like DPS manager you can edit the sound to your own headphones and taste :)
[HTC One X] slashd0t:
I find the audio quality to be average at best paired with my Shute SE535's.. So far I find the iPhone 4 and Nokia N9 are the best for audio quality.
[HTC One X] rajitsingh:
DoubleTwist does it for me.

I have Beats Tour and I really like it.

But when I hooked it up to the phone for the first time after transferring all my music and listened to it through the HTC music player with Beats Audio on, I was utterly disappointed and flabbergasted.

In short, all songs other than those provided by HTC sound very crappy with my Beats Tours. They do sound more decent with my much cheaper Sony's, but they make Tours sound cheap.

Then I switched to DoubleTwist Premium and I've never looked back.

Their equalizer is amazing and using that the sound I get from the Tours is nothing short of phenomenal. Loud and crisp, yet warm with the right amount of bass.

The UI for DoubleTwist is sharp as well (shows the 3-dot menu unfortunately). Love this player. Give it a shot if you're looking for a decent sound experience.

P.S. BeatsAudio does not work with DoubleTwist, and honestly, I couldn't care less.
[HTC One X] -NRG-:
I have a Klipsch S4 In-Ear headphones and Sony MDR-V700DJ headphones and they have a pretty good neutral sound and the sound quality is very good even compared to my Zune. BUT you have to turn the beats enhancement off, it really screws up the sound signature. Problem is that sound is very personal and some prefer a lot of base and some highs and mids. There is nothing wrong with the sound quality of the HTC one X, there no obvious hisses or distortions from the CPU/hardware in the sound and there is enough detail. If it's about as good as a dedicated MP3 player then I think it's very good for a phone. Most important is having good quality mp3's and a decent headset!

BTW: You always have to keep in mind, that you get used to a certain sound, that doesn't mean that if something sounds different that it's worse!
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
Seriously am I the only person noticing the hissing and popping when audio is played through headphones? Had 2 One Xs and both had the same issue...
[HTC One X] adamgaltress:
Have you tried different headphones?
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
In certain situations I'm getting a very noticeable amount of audio hiss when playing sound over headphones via the One X. So far I've tried the following headphones with the following results:-

Apple iPod headphones - low level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.

Sennheiser HD 457 Open back Headphones - very low level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by a slightly audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.

Sennheiser MM50 earphones with Mic - high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.

Sony DR-BT22 Bluetooth Headphones - very high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.

JVC HAFX1X - very high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.

The only situation I seem to have found that does not generate this type of hiss/pop is using the FM radio in the phone.
[HTC One X] samuelong87:
Not sure if its the same but I hear hissing when I turn on virtual room enhancement using dsp manager. Not so obvious in loud bassy music but blatant when listening to quieter songs

One X to rule them all
[HTC One X] treebill:
Even when I turn all dps stuff off I still hear a hiss in that time when the music stops and the headphones power down basically any time the music stops.
[HTC One X] -NRG-:
Yes, that his and pop very obviously available after music stops and also a pop when it starts at first. But during a song you dont hear it and there is no his between songs unless it's in the mp3 file itself. But that doesn't have to do much with the quality when listening to music.

With the bluetooth headset it's normal, I didn't have any bluetooth headset yet wich didn't have hisses in it. So I stopped using them.
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
The 'popping' I don't hear during music as this only happens when the sound stops. The hissing however is constant, you can't tell so much if you're listening to a song with lots going on but if I listen to a song with quiet sections all I can hear during those sections is hiss :/
[HTC One X] elfary:
The HTC One X has a quite high noise floor thus the hiss with sensitive in ear monitors can pretty annoying.

I tried it side by side with the HTC One S and the latter has a lower noise floor i couldn't hear almost any hiss nor the crackle with my Shure SE420 where i could hear the hiss and the crackle pretty clearly on the One X.

Bottom line: the HTC One S sounds noticiably better than the HTC One X.
[HTC One X] debully:
my HOX sound quality is quite honestly shocking for a flagship device. The DAC is rubbish, that is obvious. Levels of noise are ridiculous and mid range is super flat.

My £15 Sansa clip pisses all over it in terms of sound quality.

---------- Post added at 10:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

That'll be the tegra DAC vs the S4 DAC I presume.
[HTC One X] NZtechfreak:
Careful now, nobody wants to hear actual facts in this thread...

Try looking at the RMAA results for the One S Vs the X at GSMarena, they clearly support your conclusion.
[HTC One X] coupduberger:
Do we even know what the DAC for the One X is?

And do you guys think there can be something like Voodoo to improve on it (better SNR, more volume)?
[HTC One X] VanHelsing207:
Has anyone found a solution to the hiss/pop problem? Very annoying when listening to music at low volume.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Flashed the cm9 ics dsp manager on my phone and the audio turned out a lot better on my dt770s. The dac isn't the greatest, but you can't expect them to spend money on a part in the phone that isn't highly concentrated on. Just saw that someone ported the newer dsp manager with beats audio, so I'm going to flash that now.
[HTC One X] aszu:
The headphone output in One-X is just terrible, truly terrible!

I haven't heard such a noise since these old AC97 integrated sound cards. SNR must be something like 70dB... I use pretty sensitive IEMs (Ultimate Ears 700) and the volume is 'just OK' at the maximum level. Forget about using more power demanding headphones (like Sennheiser HD595), One-X is just not able to drive them - a total disaster!

My old HD2 (with has got IMO pretty poor output) sounds like audiophile device when compared to One-X.

Totally disappointing for a flagship device in 2012. Seriously, WTF HTC were thinking? It is such a shame, as otherwise the phone is perfect.
[HTC One X] dantesnake:
Hi guys. This is all very troubling to read, in addition to personally testing

demo unit with my Sennheiser HD448 headphones (very low volume, unlike with iTouch).

My question is, would it be possible to improve sound by using some kind of

headphone amp? Or would that just amplify the horrible noise or something?

I'd really like to unite all my devices into one (no pun intended),

which means that I would have to use HOX as an mp3 player. :s

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Yeah definitely. If you buy a dac/amp that will boost the sound and enhance it driving more frequencies.
[HTC One X] treebill:
You can slow you dpsmanager to control EQ, bass boost and all that jazz, check my sig if you want to try it.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
Yeah I flashed your dspmanager v3, it worked good. Thanks.
[HTC One X] Arie McD:
I am in the same boat and completely agree with aszu. I am using a set of Sure SE535 and as soon as I plug them in and fire up some tunes, the 535s remind me how horrible my HOX player is. Even with music recorded .wma lossless, sound is just OK.
[HTC One X] mayad79:
Earphones are only good as the range of frequency response. Then your style. The sound processing is very good through all ranges of the spectrum.
