Sv: [SOUNDMOD] PureXAudio v2.0 [15/03/2013]

Will this contain Dolby digital, beats drivers and all other things seen in AC!d?

TapaTalked!
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
For Beats Audio to FULLY function like it does on the htc, you would need htc frameworks, frameworkmodification and something to enable it via a app...

Dolby, I'm not sure but Dolby is really crap so I'm not going to add that in.

Beats drivers do not exist. You can have beats audio libraries and bin files but not proper drivers. Those are in HTC's kernel. Beats Audio will NEVER properly work as it is just like porting HTC's Sense camera - It requires a large amount of framework modification.

I do, however, included Beats Audio files and beatscore library but I highly doubt they work. Might remove them in v3.0 later

Why would you guys want beats audio? from my experience with the One X, Beats Audio is just a stupid Gimmick by HTC. It doesn't produce enough bass by itself, I started using Equalizers instead... IMO Beats Audio only compresses the audio even more and making the sound louder but less clearer... and that is why I switched to Sony, the Z with the qualcomm chip has loads of audio possibilities and I could spend more time discovering more of Qualcomms DAC features (Like in v2.0, I forced 96KHz playback audio)
[Xperia Z Android Development] ethan3686:
Well yes loudness and bass is all Sony XZ requires..the audio output otherwise is clean!
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Loudness I agree, but the bass is fine. If you had been on the One X, the bass was awful... Lucky we have Walkman Sound Enhancements to increase bass :)

I will focus on getting the volume for headphones to be louder :) Won't guarantee that it will work though...

Re: [SOUNDMOD] PureXAudio v2.0 [15/03/2013]

Anyone have a handy zip lying around to revert back to stock from Ac1d? :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
My Skullcandy aviators already produce enough clarity so adding even more treble to the headphones makes it feel uncomfortable

My UrBeats deliver good bass, true, bass is in there but it's just not enough. Even stock audio can produce more bass than clearAudio+

Your Statement " it's constantly changing equalizer settings throughout songs" is correct, all it does is that and improve clarity and adding volume.

PureXHiClarity also makes audio clearer by increasing treble (Whilst maintaining good bass volume) just like any other effect will do to enhance clarity, but ClearAudio+ is a bit over-the-top :)

Hope you guys can understand what I'm saying here, these are just my own opinions
[Xperia Z Android Development] Supersaiyan.IV:
V5 with stock volume mod here.

I must say that 192Khz sampling really shows great difference, no word on 64bit processing though. I've never encountered anything more than 32bit, but I'm assuming it's the closest thing to float.

It sounds great!

My only wish is that all the bass effects weren't software-implemented. But that's pretty much S4's only limitation, and will remain unfixable.

ZeroInfinity, do you have the MPQ8064 documentation?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Not really, I'm not sure about 64bit either but I'm sure it's doing something to the bits.

I modded the audio_policy_mpq8064.conf to use 64bit and it boots up fine

I haven't modded the normal audio_policy to use 64bit because for some reason the phone wont boot then (but 192kHz is definitely working there)

So no idea what's going on here, I assume 64bit is somehow working as the device still boots up without a problem and that it still uses MPQAudioDecode :)

Will have a look around for the data sheet and see what limitations it actually has :)

Here is the weird thing:

MPQ8064 is the model number of the processor, Snapdragon 4 Prime. Our DAC is WCD9310. Need to take a look in what happenes if we disable MPQAudioDecode...

EDIT: Found a peice of source code for MPQAudioDecode:

Source: https://www.codeaurora.org/gitweb/q...ff;h=1ee0884b0ea36652c2eac3e74fd01ad7594d01a3
[Xperia Z Android Development] Supersaiyan.IV:
What do you think about these lines from wcd9310.c

#define WCD9310_RATES (SNDRV_PCM_RATE_8000|SNDRV_PCM_RATE_16000|\
SNDRV_PCM_RATE_32000|SNDRV_PCM_RATE_48000)

Provided that the driver DAC is max 48KHz, how did you manage to get 192Khz?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Well, sound still works at just 192000 right? check inside audio_policy.conf and audio_policy_8064.conf and you will see inside both "Input" sections, I only left 192000 sampling rate there so it must work or else sound wouldn't be coming out if unsupported xD

EDIT: Yeah, con't confirm if 64bit is really working since modding audio_policy.conf to have higher bits than 16 results in no sound but modding audio_policy_8064.conf with MQPAudioDecode enabled seems fine with sound
[Xperia Z Android Development] Supersaiyan.IV:
So, if sound comes out when a .conf file is set to 192KHz, then hardware must support it? I'm not condemning anything, but I have my doubts.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
hardware should support it then yes, I remember in the One XL (AT&T) they have the same DAC and a kernel dev (sbryan) added 96kHz audio support, even my friend aznrice2k4 said that it can go beyond 48kHz..

but if the hardware didn't support it, sound wouldn't be reproduced since the only sampling rates in audio_policy.conf/8064 have 192000... so the DAC can't go below, the audio_policy is what commands what formats, sampling rates, bits etc the audio would play. If there is a error (Like the bits that go above 16 in audio_policy.conf) there won't be any sound

Bluetooth Audio Fix (But no 192kHz 64bit audio): http://d-h.st/f8W it seem to me the volume is better :)

I have also uninstall bass booster, music volume eq, soundboost and spealerboost that I have previously install in my rooted sony xperia z cos when I listen to music thru my original earpiece with all this after a while the sound just go thru the left speaker and no sound thru the right speaker. Then the earpiece totally no sound and the music just stop by itself.

I use PureXHIclarity in sound enchancement and the bass and sound is just simply awesome :D

[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
STOCK ROM IS ODEXED!!

Upto PXA 18 will work on Stock rom's as it doesn't contain any new apps.

But, in PXA 19 we have a new walkman app. So the app alone won't work on stock roms. Except those all sound libraries will be working. In order to utilize the full functionality of PXA 19 and to get the walkman working you need a DEODEXED rom like existenz, excelsus etc.

[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
Mate that's what I said above. Please read it. With PXA 16, PXA 18 or any other version before 19 as you've mentioned, there were no new apps, just libraries and enhancements. So it worked on odexed roms. But in 19, we have a new walkman app, so IT DOES require a deodexed rom to be pushed into system and to work. Please read fella! :p

Did you try moving the app into system manually using root explorer?

Hi ZeroInfinity,

I am not sure if it is mentioned in the OP (I couldn't find it), but it may pay to mention that V19 only works completely on deodexed Roms, due to the new walkman app included. I have installed on my Stock .423 and as others have mentioned now lost walkman app, when trying to manually install it fails obviously, this also causes the phone to upgrade the apps during each boot.

[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:

v20 will have major improvement over sound quality and also surround sound effect is more virtualized :D

[Xperia Z Android Development] fer2503:

[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:

[Xperia Z Android Development] Dsteppa:
Will there be more improvements PowerAmp? For example high clarity. Or will the improvements only be for Walkman?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Surround sound effect will only be for walkman (Because obviously PowerAmp does not have normal Virtualizer but StereoX which I cannot control/modify) but the overall sound quality improvement will be system wide :D

I'm back to Walkman I'm afraid (I just can't live without my Studio Surround Sound!) so there won't be any PowerAmp settings out for now...

If you can't wait, my suggestion is to try and fine tune the EQs yourself, it's very easy to do. When you are listening to music just move any slider up or down, stop until you think it sounds good for you and continue repeating for different bands :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] danw_oz:

System-wide equalizer

Hey guys, is it possible to use a system-wide equalizer with PXA? Everything is great when using the Walkman app, but when using certain apps like YouTube, it sounds flat and there's no way to equalize it.

What I'm looking for is something similar to the DSP Manager of CyanogenMod, but for the stock Sony firmware.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
IMO I hate cyanogen's dsp manager because it relies on using its custom library to do the processing meaning the other libraries won't have much use. And you can't use dsp manager without its custom library...
[Xperia Z Android Development] dbolivar:
Right, well so it wasn't a good example. Anyway, I tried some (apparently) system-wide equalizers I found on Google Play, namely Equalizer FX, Music Equalizer and Audio Fx Widget. They seem to do the trick, at least the changes in their equalizers are felt in YouTube for instance, and they don't mess with Sony Walkman settings and audio quality. But are they using PXA libraries in the background?

I remember in my previous Samsung phone, there was the MusicFX setting in the Settings/Sound menu, but I can't find something similar in my Xperia ZL. For what I've read, it should be something stock to any Android 4.x.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:

after changing bars on Purexpsychorealism and some other EQs, it doesn't create a new custom EQ? Now the current purex eq is kinda screwed up. Is this caused by 4.2.2?
[Xperia Z Android Development] doki81:
u mean you change the value of the eq and it didnt stick after your walkman restart?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Dsteppa:
No he means (example):

PureXRealism has the value of 20, to experiment he changed the value to 35, but he didn't like it. So now he's trying to go back to the stock value (20) but he forgot what it was, when he restarts his phone/app the value stays @ 35.

The solution is to reflash the mod.

erm.....i think he need to clear cache and data for his PureXAudio Engine then manually set back all value...no?
