Lol, you'll get a mouthful from zeroimfinity... Can't you read? Never mix audio mods, and if you don't have a tin ear, you'll do a wipe / reset to stock ROM and install pureXaudio mod instead!

Dead cookies leave no trails...

HELP.

after Flashing this MOD in my Xperia S my Call speaker not working :'(

Loud Speaker is working fine and the mod also works but Only problem is the "Call Speaker" not working.

I restored from my Backup but I really want this mod.

OP Please help.
[Xperia Z Android Development] dreamz0r:
Just flashed 11 and i haven't heard the sound bug yet on maximum volume! :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Are you using v11 on your Xperia S? What did I tell you in the OP.... LOL

PureXAudioLITE shouldn't be a problem, I will NOT be porting this to the Xperia Z, I will NOT fix the bugs on other phones simply because I already warned you that v11 is only for the Xperia Z/ZL.

Oh really? so is there no need for the volume bug fix then? :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] neuTrue:
These bin's are now in my download folder *too late* :P.

By the way, I still haven't played too much with 96kHz, and when I did it played sounds very fast (like a music with high pitch).
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
woah dude, that is really interesting. When you said that the audio plays very fast, that was the exact oppisite of what I encountered with 96kHz back in the ICS days lol (Slo-Mo)

the format S24_LE means 24Bit Audio, I can come up with a modified asound.conf (From tegra source) but I doubt it will be very stable.

just too bad it doesn't have as many audio formats as Xperia Z's S4 PRO with FLOAT64_BE audio format ;) hahaha
[Xperia Z Android Development] darkerm:
I Flashed the LITE version. Sad to know that you wont fix it for other device but Thanks for this MOD.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
That is strange, the LITE version doesn't have any device-specific files and should work...

Have you installed any other audio mods or is this the only audio mod you've flashed?

As I said, I can't fix since I don't have the device or knowledge about the device.

[Xperia Z Android Development] doki81:
thanks for the steps..i am following it until this last step "Go back on your file explorer and move it to data/data/com.sonyericsson.soundenhancement/shared_prefs/" where i cant find this 'shared_prefs' folder...

i try to create this folder and put the xml file with the chmod 660..after restart..i cant seem to enable the two PureX preset anymore :(...
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
set folder perms to the shared_prefs folder that you created, I think it was rwx rwx --x.

You don't have this folder? that is very strange. Are you sure you can't find it in data/data/com.sonyericsson.soundenhancement?
[Xperia Z Android Development] doki81:
yes...very sure...

what i did just now is..i install your V11 again after i create the folder and fail to get any pure x eq enabled...

now finally the shared_prefs is there...and i think the EQ finally stick...will monitor and see how...

walkman just fc after reboot my phone and now seem ok again...
[Xperia Z Android Development] forest1971:
I guess there is something wrong with your rom which caused quite few problems as reported. Maybe, restore a good backup or clean install again should help. Cheers.
[Xperia Z Android Development] neuTrue:
I'll try not to envy you. :P

Actually, the chip supports "SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_S32_LE", but it's need to be enabled in the kernel. I'll try to convince the developers to add this one, in their next build. :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] tanoxxx:
Flashed v11, all great and perfect :laugh:

Genius Zero, thanks :good::)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Supersaiyan.IV:
To those that want to minimize CPU distortion there's a really easy way to do that:

Install No-Frills CPU Control.

Change CPU govenor to ondemand.

Now phone automatically goes down to 384Mhz@850mV when display isn't used.

Interactive governor always jumps between ~1Ghz and 384Mhz.

Apart from doing the above I also installed Doomkernel v03 and undervolted the CPU.

At 384Mhz@800mV I've got so little CPU noise coming that I can just barely tell.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Andrewtst:
v11 is outstanding! Better than v10.1

Now I only use PureXHiClarity equalizer setting, no longer required turn on the Surround sound setting. Awesome!

* I didn't run the patch as I don't find any issue even run at full volume. :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] datagubben:
Is this working with Xperia V? :o
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Please don't ask these type of questions, try before asking next time...

Be sure to use PureXAudioLITE, I do NOT recommend downloading v11 because it was made SPECIFICALLY for Xperia Z/ZL's hardware...
[Xperia Z Android Development] mopby:
wow! great audio enhancements in v11

tested v10.1 and v11 today but with both version the same problem (did a wipe, then a clean install of a stock rom 4.1.2 - then root (different methods - then testet read/write in root explorer on system/apps - worked as it should - then did ur soundtweak)

always when I'm trying to mount system/apps as read/write the device reboots automatically. I can't do anything against it, happens with different explorerers (i commonly use root explorer)

how can i fix it?

thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
This has nothing to do with the soundmod...

Are you using SuperSU? did you root it normally from bin4ry's method?? It is better that you ask somewhere else as this has nothing to do with the soundmod
[Xperia Z Android Development] mopby:
i tried both, superuser and supersu, one time as system app and one time normally. did a wipe and clean fresh install every time. it worked well before installing the soundmod. so i guess it COULD be related to anything correlated to this mod (im not saying it IS ur mod, but maybe Im doing something wrong)

also i tried bin4ry's and DooMLoRD's method (each on a fresh installation of course)

well it did cost me 4 hours of testing every possibilty today

did no one encounter such problems?
[Xperia Z Android Development] diego9016:
Have you tried installing SuperSU and converting it into a system app via settings in the app?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Achille91:
Audio from the external speaker is loud but the quality is bad..

Inviato dal mio C6603 con Tapatalk 2
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Of course it is bad! What did you expect?

Loud = Worse quality did you not know that?

You cannot have both, that is impossible with our hardware. The HTC One has a dedicated Amp inside it's chipset which amplifies audio better with more sound
[Xperia Z Android Development] lyndonguti:
Perfect explanation this must be in op ;)

sent from my Xperia Z
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
good idea lol
[Xperia Z Android Development] mopby:
yes, didnt work :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] Erica Law:
Could you make this for the Xperia V? The full version of course. Not much love for the Xperia V. Thanks

Humans have evolved to be smarter, but there's one thing we can't get rid off. It's human stupidity.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
For the LAST time man, I cannot, it is impossible. I dint have the device, I cant make the full version work BECAUSE SOME FEATURES ARE DEVICE SPECIFIC!!

People constantly tell me to port this to another device, I will simply say NO.

[Xperia Z Android Development] MafiaManV:
Were you using latest V26 root method? I choose SU during install...Had the same issue as you and this solved it . If that is not working , then i guess you have to do full wipe and start from begining :/

@zeroinfinity

Would you mind making a patch that keeps v11 headphone volume, but retain stock loudspeaker and earpiece volume ?

THanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Is there a problem with the speaker or earpiece volume? I don't see the point in making such a patch....

[Xperia Z Android Development] eddietah:
I also just flash v11 and everything is just solid :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] Erica Law:
Okay I understand. Thanks. Sorry for making you upset.

[Xperia Z Android Development] nazrin313:
Liking this version very much, it clearly gives more detail (incl the finer ones)and depth which cannot be heard from the previous versions and Stereo sound staging works wonders. This one is a keeper.

Well done

EDIT:

However, after listening to some high density flac audio files, the jumpy bug is still there, although not as apparent as v10.1. Im still keeping it thou cos this still rocks.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Andrewtst:
My phone is root (using DooMLoRD's) but locked bootloader, I am using PureXAudio v10.1 before and now v11.

I still can use root explorer doing anything that required write access (example at system/app). No single reboot issue for me.
[Xperia Z Android Development] schuertzi:
Hi there. I installed this mode on fresh received Xperia ZL. I never listened to the sound yet. Is there another possibility if this mode is installed right? Any add buttons or so?

Thx a lot

Schuertzi
[Xperia Z Android Development] xIceCream:
The first big noticeable difference would be your ringtone.

Before flashing, my phone's ringtone volume was set at maximum. I put my phone aside after flashing this MOD, and went to use my computer, few minutes later, someone called me, and the phone was blasting with the music, I had a hug shock. This MOD obviously has been integrated inside. ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] forest1971:
Check under system/etc if there is a folder named "soundimage", then it is already installed.

Also under Walkman-settings-sound enhancements you can see a preset equalizer named as "PureXPsychoRealism". cheers.
[Xperia Z Android Development] thainl:
Hi,

Many thanks for your outstanding mod! I'm testing on my XZ, UK rom 434, the sound quality is perfect, bass is tight and deep, much details, sound stage is good. However, occasionally (after about 4, 5 mins playing), there is a fast clicking sound and jumping when listening the .flac file (quite big file, 1 file for 1 CD). I don't know if it is happen for other file types or not. Seem like this bug is less (after about 2songs) when playing with poweramp. My .flac files has a bit rate about 800kbps.

Hope that you can fix this in next version! Anyway, i love this sound quality!

Thanks,

thainl,
[Xperia Z Android Development] doki81:
in op...there is one warning on this clicking sound explanation..
[Xperia Z Android Development] schuertzi:
Thx a lot for your quick replies.

Will check it out and let you know.

Thx again.

Schuertzi

Hi to all

I checked now.

Under systems/ etc. the folder is there. But at the settings I have the PureXtenseBLAST. IS that the same?

Thx and regards

Schuertzi
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
strange, my FLAC files are all 1000kbps+ and I have not had a single problem with them in walkman...

how long are your songs? what size? every song of mine lasts around 3-4mins and the average size of my flac files are 30Mb each :)

yup, in sound enhancements you will see PureXDynamics, PureXIntenseBLAST and PureXHiFi :)

if you press on the equalizer presets, it opens up a menu with a few equalizer presets, if you scroll down there should be PureXPsychoRealism and PureXHiClarity, those will sound great :D These replace User Defined slots however, you may customize your audio still if you do not like those presets I made :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] thainl:
My file is the whole cd in one file so it contains about 12 songs, its size about 400-500mb. Because i usually use the .cue file come along with .flac on my computer.
[Xperia Z Android Development] schuertzi:
Hi, again me.

I checked again. In the Equalizer settings, this sound enhancements are not there. I have an Xperia ZL. Does it matter? My Bootloader is locked. I use the XZRecovery, means, I install it every single time new. I downloaded the latest version v11.

Any ideas?

Thx so much.

Schuertzi
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
are you using a different language other then English?

User-Defined 1 is PureXPsychoRealism

User-Defined 2 is PureXHiClarity

When selecting these you should already have a pre-made equalizer preset in those slots :)

woah thats big. I'm assuming that the Android OS can't take a very huge audio file like that :p probably because the buffer size is too small to load it all probably (buffer size is currently 4096, going higher mean more ram so if it goes too high, walkman can freeze a lot)
[Xperia Z Android Development] schuertzi:
Wow, you are right. I am using German as the phone language. Indeed, there are two defined presets already. Now it is clear. And, the Volume is really blasting now.

The a lot for your help, just great.

Schuertzi
[Xperia Z Android Development] thainl:
Oh, i see, so i think i should break it down to separate song. Will try that. Thank you!:good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
yeah, smaller size means less work the cpu has to do to decode the whole thing, it's just like watching a full hd movie: When you skip into the middle of the film it take a few seconds for the cpu to decode the part in order to play it.
[Xperia Z Android Development] nazrin313:
Update: reflashed v11 again n it the jump bug seems to be gone after 3 hrs of listening to my music.. Soooo strange.. But props, best one so far from u mate
[Xperia Z Android Development] eddietah:
Something funny about v11

Last night I flash it 2 times then go to sleep cos a bit tipsy forget I already flash so I go and flash it again. Now then I remember I did flash it 2 times.

This morning wake up and tested it with my earpiece but the sound seem like no bass and quite flat. Then when I reach office I use my office windows 7 and download v11 again and flash it. After that I tested it again with the same earpiece and who know everything is back like before. The bass, the clarity etc, everything is just so perfect. I also don't understand how come it's so strange. Never happen to me on v10.1 But I'm glad is okay now :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] tanoxxx:
@ZeroInfinity

For me v11 is so perfect, Bravo :good:

What do you think, this genius mod can work on our XZ with CM10 or Paranoid Android?

sorry if i ask it, but for now i havent this 2 rom, and i can try, im in stock Sony rom,,

thnaks
[Xperia Z Android Development] AbirXtreme:
Adding some of the extra features ti the universal would be amazing , do it please :silly:
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
That's not strange, the strange thing is why the hell is you music playing from the earpiece? xD

I can't say man, my XZ is branded so I'll never be able to use AOSP ROMs :(

It might work actually but I can't promise you though...
[Xperia Z Android Development] tanoxxx:
:(

ok, thanks the same for the reply, when i will try it i will report you back if it work, i hope yes, i cant stay withiut your mod :laugh:
[Xperia Z Android Development] eddietah:
Sorry typo error it should be SONY Stereo Headset MH-EX300AP :o

Here the image of the SONY Stereo Headset MH-EX300AP I'm using for my SONY Xperia Z to listen to songs, watch movies and play games ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] xddb07:
Your MOD is awesome, with my bluetooth motorcycle helmet it rocks,

Thanks a lot
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
ohhh I understand now, It takes a few seconds for the sound enhancements app to load all of the effects, after a few seconds everything should have the effect you last played again :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] thainl:
I usually use preset PureXClarity but everytime i restart Walkman it settings rollback to PureXPsychoRealism. Is this normal? Can you make it remember my choice?

Thanks,
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
some people already reported this bug and I still do not know what is causing this.

My only bugfix is that you go to settings > apps > all apps and scroll down until you see "PureXAudio Engine", tap on it and "Clear data"

After that reboot

Once your phone is booted, go to walkman, then sound enhancements and fiddle with the equalizer controls (Don't worry about it, just do whatever you like first) and then reboot again.

take a file from the PureXAudio zip you downloaded called "com.sonyericsson.music-SE-SETTINGS" inside data/data/com.sonyericsson.soundenhancements/shared_prefs and move it to your internal storage

use a file explorer and navigate to /data/data/com.sonyericsson.soundenhancements/shared_prefs in your device, copy your "com.sonyericsson.music-SE-SETTINGS" into that folder (Replace the old one if needed)

now reboot again, when you are back in walkman, go onto sound enhancements, choose whatever preset you like and reboot, it should stick then :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] eddietah:
I install Bass Booster - BETA and now everything seem like solid gold :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
lol walkman not good enough for ya?

Those stock earphones that came with the XZ, they suck ass at bass (And volume). :p

I'm currently burnin-in mine for at least 10 hours now :D so the bass and audio quality should gradually be better
[Xperia Z Android Development] tanoxxx:
@ZeroInfinity

I tryed you mod on Paranoid Android, unfortunately dont work :crying::crying::crying::crying:

i come back to sony firmware, the PA for now is so bugged :( but fortunately i have back your mod :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
Could I have some detailed installation instructions like if clearing dalvik/cache is required and if yes, when to clear them (Before install or after) ??!! If any additional steps are required too, please could you mention that too?!
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Is it really hard just to intall a modification?

wiping dalvik and cache is not necessary but you can if you want :) (It doesn't matter if it's before or after, the cache/dalvik cache gets wiped anyways lol)

just flash like a normal mod, it's not hard

Oh and if you want info on how to install, if you bothered to look carefully in the OP, there is a link on how to install :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z Android Development] Captain Droid:
Hi, i tried your Mod and i feel no difference.

Now how will i remove this mod and revert back to the stock version.

Mine is Xperia Ion :(

And when i select different mods in equalizer i cant find any one other than the defaults stuffs.

In the video that dude changes equalizer settings , selecting some extra settings. i don't have that. How to get that ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] FSN:
Did you install the light version? (As said from OP, no support for other phones besides Xperia Z)
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
you are not using a Xperia Z that is why :rolleyes: LOL

and if you HAVE READ THE OP YOU WOULD OF HAD A NAND BACKUP BY NOW!!!!!

and if you have read the OP you would of also come across this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=39932724&postcount=538

It's all in the OP dude, don't expect me to give you answers which are right in the OP
[Xperia Z Android Development] eddietah:
I'm not saying that your mod or walkman is no good just that I wanted more bass. And after install this it really did improve on the bass.

I also feel this stock headset that comes with the sony xperia z is really a bit low end but I'm still searching for a better headset but really have no idea which one to buy lol ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] sacredsoul:
Go Stereo Electronics or Jaben. Ask them recommend. :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] vaud27:
superb mod.
[Xperia Z Android Development] danw_oz:
Really, this latest mod has HUGE bass with decent headphones. IMO though it has significantly reduced the mid range & high end frequencies so sounds a little muddy/washy.
[Xperia Z Android Development] doki81:
which eq are u using? even with hi clairty eq you still find it muddy?
[Xperia Z Android Development] kashppo:
Does this work? I thought Titanium Backup was to backup individual applications..?

I've tried cmw and twpr recovery but they both took more than an hour so I had to cancel.. (I've got a crappy class 2 sd at the moment).

I'm dying to try this mod but want to make sure I've got a bk first
[Xperia Z Android Development] Supersaiyan.IV:
Try turning off EQ, PureXDynamics, and Clear Stereo.

In my world 192Khz doesn't need an EQ.

To everyone else - if you're unsure about anything always look in the OP (Opening Post, First post).

On the other hand I'm unsure if some of you can't read or simply don't know what OP means.

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
That really depends on what headphones you got, you probably have bass-sensitive headphones. My Skullcandy Aviators produce a nice clear and good bass which I can still hear the high frequencies and mids very well when using PureXPsychoRealism :)

But as for using my UrBeats, they are bass heavy, so PureXPsychoRealism just makes the audio very muddy. In that case, I use PureXHiClarity to increase tyhe highs and mids and not-so-much on the bass :)

dude, if your sd card sucks why don't you move the stuff to internal storage? it would be much faster then :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] mandarjoshiin:
I'm still getting the shuttering bug... :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Download that volume bug fix in the OP, it decreases the volume some more to prevent to bug.

Like 1% of users are getting this bug now lol

Oh and are you listening to audio at max volume? could damage your ears bro.

Even if they don't know what OP means, if they use their common sense, they would of read it the whole thing first :D

IMO People are just lazy at not reading the whole thing lol
[Xperia Z Android Development] eddietah:
I'm also facing the bug.

But I would like to know how much volume does the volume bug fix decrease?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
just slightly, i doubt you'll hear the difference. If you still have the bug I am willing to decrease the headphone volume even more lol but i doubt you want that
[Xperia Z Android Development] danw_oz:
Not to be rude, but the default PureXPsychoRealism has always sounded horrible for me, agreed PureXHiClarity now is pretty good, I was also trying to manual eq, trying to pull a bit more in the mids, but can't really pull it out now since about version 8. And yes I am using beats headphones ;)
