Re: [MOD] [N7] BEATS+XLOUDER! 4.1.2/4.2.2 [08/03/13] JB Louder Audio Improvement Patc

Yeah but your log is HUGE and I don't even know where to start with that 22 page log, you should have cropped out your personal info from this and trimmed it. Speakers distortion is one thing that can be adjusted, I hope you aren't using compression. Make sure no volume+ exists or that will cause issues.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Sephiroth_Darko:
Haha. Sorry about that. I have compression off but I'll try to make sure volume+ isn't there.. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll let you know how do.

Re: [MOD] [N7] BEATS+XLOUDER! 4.1.2/4.2.2 [08/03/13] JB Louder Audio Improvement Patc

Kernel, wakelock are all kernel based. I have all my nexus devices running it on stock and custom kernels and stock gives me 3 days on standby.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Atticustrd:
Thank you, great mod by the way. Im currently using francos kernel, first time ive seen this wakelock and it was after installing your latest update so id figure asking. Thanks again.

Just try to turn off your touch sound (settings -> sound). It may help a lot.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] lparcshinoda:
Oh yes, I know that... I was asking for a better solution (one that is not involving reinstall of some system app / mod). Thanks :good:
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] NicoGa:
I finally flashed V3B7 and I have been using it for a few days without an issue :) I'm on stock ROM and M-Kernel.

Thanks a lot Misledz (and others contributors) for this mod!

I have a few questions:

- How is it possible to appreciate the effect of this mod on the volume (without going back on the unmod ROM) ?

- I'm confused as you distribute both Awesome Beats and EIZO (while only EIZO is mentioned in the OP).

From my reading I understand that it is better to use either Beats or EIZO, is that right ?

Do I have to reboot or reopen an apps If I switch in Param -> Sound effects ?

I found that the equalizer of Beats (but also the other params) have a greater effect on the sound than the one of EIZO; In other words, besides the xlimiter (which is wonderful) and the equalizer, param of EIZO have effect on the sound that is hard to detect (albeit I'm testing with a Sony MRD-XD100 cheap headphones and N7 speaker). Is that normal ?

- Is there a way to save a user defined an equalizer in EIZO ?

- Is MediaMonkey compatible with EIZO/Beat ? (it comes with its proper equalizer And I did not found a way to switch)

- What is the utility of Param -> Sound effects, beside allowing a direct access to sound effects in apps (since leaving option activated in Beats while having selected EIZO in Music Effect still has an effect on the sound when using google music or apollo) ?

It would be nice if people using this mod with a N7 could post more info about their config (Like osmosis did).

Thanks a lot for your answers, and this awesome mod :):)

ps1: the title of the OP is not up to date

ps2: the video in the OP is kind of scary :)

Re: [MOD] [N7] BEATS+XLOUDER! 4.1.2/4.2.2 [08/03/13] JB Louder Audio Improvement Patc

Re: [MOD] [N7] BEATS+XLOUDER! 4.1.2/4.2.2 [08/03/13] JB Louder Audio Improvement Patc

Make sure under sound settings that the right equalizer is selected under sound effects. Also if i remember right (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that the stock kernel doesn't have the audio quality patch, which helps alongside the mod.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] NicoGa:
Why such weird questions ... you wonder ? maybe because I observe a buggy behavior !?

Well lets ask an other one ... can xlimiter and x-eq be activated at the same time ?

On my device (for both Google Music and Apollo, EIZO selected for Sound Effects and Beats not active) when xlimiter is activated, x-eq has not effects ?! is that normal ?

Furthermore, in poweramp (after doing what is in the op), if MusicFX is not active EIZO x-eq still have an effect but not xlimiter. Buy activating MusicFX, the behavior is as Apollo or Google Music ...

Speaking of analog, analog tube receivers are making a big come back, most of them are only available on the high end right now though, but nothing beats the rich full sound you get with analog.

New build out, V3B8

More loudness on speaker (safe)

Improvements with lib system, increased loudness where necessary. Speakers without much reliance to EIZO.

Replaced violent libs with more low tuned ones, this should lower static but at the expense of music experience, if you face static issues do let me know.

Updated libs for CM, Beats, XLouder

Improved stability on higher volumes and feedback

It is working for me on stock rom+m-kernel mr1 and up (both 3b7 and 3b8), albeit if I activate xlimiter the others options in EIZO have no effect in any media player (n7player, poweramp, ...) except with Apollo.

Poweramp behave weirdly, as the setting of EIZO only take effects if I open them through poweramp.

Skype calls are definitively louder.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] prestige777:
Works perfectly with PA(best nexus 7 ROM) and M46. ;) Sound is louder on YouTube through the speaker I could hear it over the TV pretty easily. Bass works better as well, on previous builds it would sound alright until a song hit a strong bass note then it would amplify it for some reason, now its even across the range. Two separate clipping settings would be nice on for bass and one for treble. Currently it cuts the high end and severely cuts the low end even on the soft setting with the bass all the way up, the bass is pretty much nonexistant. I think most people need just a very slight filter on the mid/ low end, maybe between 50-70 Hz. on the built in audio I set the equalizer from 1.5-20KHz all the way up and below 1.5KHz I set to around 1db with the limiter off and the maxxbass set to small. I have no distortion from my speaker and its plenty loud.

Did you flash this after flashing a kernel? When I flash a new kernel, I always flash this mod last, otherwise I notice a difference in the sound quality. You might want to uninstall/delete any sound controlling apps to be sure they are not conflicting with this mod. You can also use Titanium Backup and freeze the apps. If you set the equalizer properly, you don't need to use the limiter, I recommend avoiding the limiter setting.

Works perfect for me on prime and leankernel. Prime (vanir) being the best n7 ROM built with the best toolchain and omegaprime spent hundreds of hours optimizing code. You can def feel the difference. And leankernel being the best kernel, imoseyon is an android genius and has created many of the VM tweaks that people use across all devices. And this is clearly the best audio mod. It basically being the only DEDICATED audio mod for the n7.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Misledz:
Hahaha I take it you tuned build in? Power amp is glitchy, or atleast something is. What worked on N7 didn't work on Gnexus and what works on Gnexus doesn't work on N7 :/ I'm tempted to buy an N7 soon and see for myself.

I only tune stereo x and db level, i knew both devices are different but i just like poweramp and your mod very much. Well get your n7 asap it's worth to buy man :D :D

For some reason I had to revert v3b8 tonight (which terminated without error). However, after I did so, there were no more sound and my N7 was rebooting by itself every 10 min or so !

Flashing back v3b8 fixed the problems ...
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] prestige777:
Try going into settings/Audio/Replay Gain and adjust the Decible Gain according to what sounds best to you. Also the speaker in the nexus 7 doesn't handle wide variances in sound bandwidth very well, if you use an almost flat bandwidth you will notice very little distortion/clipping even at high db levels on the equalizer(to a point) however if you adjust just one slider on the equalizer to a point where it is significantly out of line with the rest of the bandwidth you will instantly notice distortion/clipping.

*Frequencies below 1k on the equalizer are controlled by the bass knob.

Having the 4k slider down away from the rest produces very noticeable distortion.(depending on the type of song, it had no effect on some rap songs but a huge effect on some rock songs)

* I used my previously posted Noozxoide settings with power amp and it sounds loud and clear.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] lesp4ul:
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. Yeap about those frequencies, i always slide down low-mid freq to avoid clips, poweramp mid range eq is too wide, rock songs usually have high mid gain and it is bad to phone speaker.

Unfortunately most of my tracks are jazz which is also uses wide mid range freq, few high range, but it sounds bad on N7 :( i followed your setting, it is good for some but it doesn't suits jazz. I wonder if poweramp revamp those slider levels like winamp on PC. Oh well, that is okay friend i will use my grado for jazz tracks for the moment :)

Thanks again :)

i am now 100% sure this doesn't work with m-kernel now i have tried with 3 roms, smooth rom, aokp, and pa 3.15 with faux kernel and franco kernel it works perfectly fine on all roms but m-kernel this mod doesnt work with, any solution?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Kaiyes:
I do agree with a bit of doubt. I'm using m-kernel & I also didn't see any sizable change in volume when using built in speakers apart from the distortion when using some of the options. The distortion went away after some tweaking around with the options and not using all of them altogether. However, the sound was cristal clear with line out. I mean it was beautiful. I don't know its the nexus 7 or the mod. I using the latest build VB8 . thinking of changing the kernel and see what happens.

EDIT# I had all this issues of sound not being loud, when I was using vb7. Just before posting the above post I installed vb8. I was using line out with speakers at that time so didn't notice the change in vb8. Its actually damn loud!!!!!!! The low volume issue is gone !!!!! I am actually not using half volume in MX player where I had to hold the speakers close to my ears in the same movie using vb7. It sounded bit distorted but I didn't have time to play around with the tweaks. So will keep you guys posted. So I guess at least the low volume issue is gone with vb8 even with m-kernel.
