How i know if the mod work ok? When i installed the mod dolby digital and htc boomsound icon still showed

And what i need to select when i install the driver? Which cpu?

Thanks
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
To verify installation, Dragon-Fi_Audio.txt should be in /system/. If you have M7, there should not be BoomSound switch present, if it is from a ROM then that is normal. I only have disabled h/k and boomsound switches if you install Dolby on M8. Additionally, there is no Dolby Digital, only Dolby Atmos. Dolby Digital was in the previous versions of the soundmod.

Secondly, what driver are you talking about? There is no driver installation in this mod. Unless you are referring to V4A, for V4A FX you may choose yourself but logically most audiophiles will just go for super high quality. For V4A XHiFi well, I have said in the link in the OP titled "Extra trick for V4A FX/XHiFi!". If you can't tell the difference between the two then search on google. If you are wondering if both can work alongside, again, refer to the link in the OP titled "Extra trick for V4A FX/XHiFi!".

Just a little thing I've done since my break, got Atmos working on M9 and fixed volume leveller bug (Now headphone volume is normalised and not madly loud as before). Only thing is, you need to turn off HTC BoomSound and enable Dolby Atmos or else overprocessing WILL take place and it just sounds absolutely horrible. Same thing when using speakers, if you want theatre mode, turn off Atmos. This must be done everytime. No idea if it can be automated, I don't have experience in android coding.

Tl;Dr: Atmos working on M9 properly with most bugs fixed. Only thing is to actively switch from BoomSound and Atmos, overprocessing will occur if both are used.

No ETA or anything, maybe updates on progress from time to time but still won't be as active in development as before.

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Probably a bug from a long, long time ago. There should be no problems with installation on the M7. No need to do anything but flash the mod besides making a backup before flashing in case you want to switch back.

If i flash it i can't unistall it after?

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Do you see an uninstall zip in the OP? :p Have I mentioned it anywhere on this thread?

Short Answer: No.

Either reflash ROM or restore backup.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] albion93:
Haha ok i understood :) ..thanks..one last thing, i flashed it but if i want to change settings can i overflash ?

yes
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Wael:
Ehmm this might be a bit embarassing, but i don't know what is "Atmos" ? :D

And in your opinion is it worth it to remove HTC's Dolby engine? I remember how you praise theatre mode on Dolby :)

Good job [MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION]

Keep up the good work :good:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Give me one reason why you would even think of removing Dolby? :p

Dolby Atmos is another Dolby technology, google it.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ernoz:
I use a combo with Project Desire and XTREMEaudio where I got the Dolby Atmos app as intelligent equalizer and I really love the sound, its clear and all. While I thought it was too much I decided to just use one audio mod from now on. This isn't necessary, it's plain stupidity to be flashing two mods with almost the same files with the potential of making conflicts, I guess I was lucky that it worked.

However, not to be mean or offend anyone, the sound is massive - high - it probably comes form the beatsaudio experiment.

The thing is with this I experience with low sounds a kind of small hiss/buzz, static unnatural electronic noise which annoys me as I listen to very detailed low-volume chill songs that sometimes go down in volume quite a bit when it fades out and in etc so I heard the static if I'm listening in a place without noise.

Do you guys think there is any way to fix that additional noise? I have been thinking of going back to the roots and installing ViperOne 9 for my M7, so I thought about this classic audio mod would make a good combo with it. Especially if I can run the Dolby Atmos app with this audio mod? And how about the buzz/hiss, now while it might be wrong of me to blame the Beatsaudio experiment I feel like the high increase in audio by extra gain is making the hiss/buzz which I don't actually want :( So if anyone have any idea what I can do to make it work out I'll be happy to listen to you :D All I want is detailed and balanced sound without the hiss, as Project Desire also includes the beatsaudio experiment I'm so its in the same boat. This mod was made

specifically for the HTC devices so that's my best bet.

I always modify my audioservice to run so I can adjust my volume with 1% accuracy, that should probably tell you how much the sound matters to me. My music player of choice is Blackplayer EX, which supports changing volume at 1% each step and has a mode to disable the equalizer so that it works with any audio mods so far.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
If you hear excessive volume or static noise, that is a sign of over processing which you'd obviously expect when you mix soundmods which is why I have said countless times that I do not recommend it.

No, there is no fix. The mods are conflicting. Either stick with one or live with it.

Bugs are inevitable mixing soundmods like you have. There's no point asking for a fix about something that you aren't supposed to do because it's not a bug, it's a conflict of mods.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ernoz:
Thanks, I think I do see your point clearly - it reeks of overprocessing. So just flash Dragon-Fi and use the older Dolby DSP app there instead of flashing the Atmos DSP over dragon-fi, do you have a pic of the options included there? I'd love to see it.

I like the ones in Atmos which looks like this but thats mostly the intelligent equalizer, I guess I can live without it if it doesn't have that. The volume leveler, dialogue enhancer, surround virtualizer (distortes the sound?) as they sound awful really probably from the overprocessing. Here is the pic from it:

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yes, we have Dolby Atmos as mentioned in the changelogs/OP. You have an M7 right? Did you not see the Dolby option in the AROMA installer? It's right there. Literally the same one as you are using. I don't understand why you are flashing another Dolby where as the one in my soundmod is integrated without any problems for HTC devices and compatibility with my soundmod.

The problems you are having are likely because you are installing many soundmods altogether. Have you tried installing just my mod? You wouldn't be having ANY of those problems in the first place. Also you wouldn't be needing to ask this in this thread if you just read everything on the first page because all of the information regarding this soundmod is there.

Additionally, the notes are double posted at the first 2 pages in the AROMA Installer. There's no way you can miss it.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ernoz:
Ah, that last post that was in the thread confused me. (the one about HTC dolby engine)

I installed dragon-fi and disabled Beats Audio/BoomSounds on my Viperone M9 assuming I was supposed to disable those for this audio mod. The selection of Psycho, earbuds, in ear and hi res seems pretty crazy in terms of sound distortion that is, just setting it to Speaker and intelligent equalizer open sounded like it worked best. Maybe even disable the whole thing for all that counts.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Huh, I've never experienced any form is distortion in any of those presets with my headphones before. I don't think anyone else here has either :confused: There shouldn't be any distortion if you aren't mixing soundmods and DSPs.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ernoz:
Ah, deeply sorry here, I wrote the wrong term.

I meant it makes the sound too unbalanced and unnatural, that has always been the problem with software that has a "headphone setting" I've always thought that having it to speakers made it sound the best but that's probably subjective? :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Oh, now that makes sense :) some people like the completely natural sound without any EQ adjustments and some people like more "enhanced" music by tuning the EQ to fit their tastes. It's all optional though, good thing the DSP allows you to turn some features off. But if you really want 100% natural sound, might as well not use a DSP to get the cleanest audio/quality out there as there's little or no post processing involved :)

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Wael:
[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] i remember that there is some small background static noise that is only audible in low volume levels because of Dolby that u can not do anything about it. If i installed V4A to do that 24-bit trick, will this decrease this background static noise or remove it ?

And will your upcoming Atmos mod reduce/remove it ?

Thanks for your hard work and time :) very much aplreciated :good:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Most likely not, I think the static noise is produced due to M9's high voltage for the audio jack. I could be wrong though. However, decreasing the voltage might decrease the audio gain as well. Decreasing the audio gain will fix it but you'll be left with a really quiet phone. No other way around it I'm afraid, I've done pretty much all I've can. Atmos does have significantly lower noise than stock HTC Dolby but it's still there on quiet parts. It's a shame really, never happened on any HTC device I've owned and I'm sure M8 never had this problem (No idea, never had that one). Imo M9's audio is a bit of a lackluster I'm afraid :S
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Wael:
What is sad also is that there is no Harman Kardon version too :/

Anyway, it is better than nothing, see the A9 has a single bottom facing mono speaker :laugh:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ernoz:
The M7 seems to be working good with this audio mod, I didn't pick any Beats tweaks and I don't have Beatsaudio (HTC BoomSounds) enabled.

However, it appears like it shows a notification for HTC Boomsound on the speaker when I do not use the headphone jack is it still supposed to do this? I assume that it might be designed this way so that the speaker actually gives the sounds its supposed to but not that sure if that was the meaning...

Running ViperOne 9 with Sense 7.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
First, just to correct you, Beats Audio is not HTC BoomSound.

Secondly, are you sure it didn't happen before you flashed my mod? No one else in this thread using the M7 reported this bug before. Are you entirely sure it is caused by flashing the mod? BoomSound is not supposed to be on M7.

Also, I'm a bit confused because you are confusing Beats Audio with HTC BoomSound. Are you talking about a beats audio notification? or a HTC BoomSound notification? both are very different things and HTC BoomSound notification shouldn't be on the M7. Unless you're on a custom ROM like s.rom with BoomSound ported.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ernoz:
Ah, no, it's probably a ViperOne feature.

I just think that they ported BoomSound over from the newer editions and renamed it to Beats Audio as it's technically the same thing and back on the original M7 it is still BoomSound but they renamed the option to enable it Beatsaudio as that was the one back with KitKat before they sold their Beats shares. I believe that they probably changed it when they release the Lolipop ROM for M7 earlier this year to BoomSound too at the time I switched to running custom ROMs on this design.

The thing was that I disabled HTC BoomSound/Beatsaudio as you said that it will cause further distortion and it seems to only increase the already too little audio steps by one level higher volume on each for me. But, even if its disabled it still enables itself when I'm playing sounds from the speaker and not from the headphones. I wondered if this possibly is some feature in order to make the speakers give better sound and thought maybe the sound mod enabled it there since I disabled it in settings. Might be something ViperOne themselves have done, should I go ask them about it?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Oh, it's HTC's nature of BoomSound, it can't be turned off for speakers. This is normal. It doesn't really matter for speakers to be honest, you'll notice more distortions in headphones than speakers unless you turn the speakers to a very high volume. Besides, distortion "may" occur, it doesn't mean it will occur all the time. Also to note, this mod isn't focused on speakers, mainly for headphones. There are some enhancements for speakers but it isn't a priority, the audio quality is far more superior on headphones and most people use headphones to listen to music.

You shouldn't worry about the speakers, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" ;)

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
If you read his post again, notice how he has the M8. In the OP and changelog, I've stated and Dolby Atmos is already available in my mod for the M7 and M8, just not the M9. Also I've said in previous posts that M9 support is coming soon but as I am not dedicating my life for this soundmod, there won't be an ETA yet. Also yes, you can install the atmos mod you have linked above, I am also using that one on the M9.

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Wael:
[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] Yeah i missed that one :o*

He has an M8 :D*

Anyway, i remember that you stated that HTC has put a lot of voltage in the M9 aux (1.028)

According to phonearena, the M8 has more voltage! (1.28)*

So does that mean that the M8 suffers from the static background noise in low volumes ?!*

Thanks :)*
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
lol how should I know, I never owned an M8. Also, really? Are you sure there isn't a typo with that "0" in there? Either way, no idea what's up with the noise on the M9, it's the noisiest output I've ever heard from a phone before and there's not much we can do about it.

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

Then that means the problem is with Dolby audio in aux department.

Anyway, [MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] you said the noisiest output ?! Are there any non-HTC phones that are better in that department you came across so far ?!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
I've never used any other phone than HTC besides Sony Xperia Z back in 2013, that was pretty decent tbh. From all of the HTC devices I've had (Excluding the Wildfire because that phone was a piece of crap), the EVO 3D, One X and the One M7 never had as much noise as the M9. The noise is most noticeable for me from the jump from M7 to M9, I really was not expecting this much noise. Dolby could be one factor of excessive noise however on the M7, there is barely any noise in Dolby mods compared to HTC Dolby on the M9. My guess is that HTC, once again, did another crappy job in implementing third party audio technologies.

I am considering a Nexus for my next device possible in 2017. No more HTC until they come up with something completely unexpected that will save their company. I'm planning to keep the M9 for 2 years if it will even last that long, already spent £580 on it.

I have considered Sony in the past (Xperia Z in 2013) however, due to their completely idiotic and just plain stupid bootloader and rooting status BS, I'm never considering going back ever again. It's a major pain to dev with and I have once lost all my data before with no way of recovering due to something wrong with the system partition. Also, since mine was rooting status = not allowed, I had to use an exploit to install recovery in the system partition so it will load upon bootup. This was the only way to flash things but if the system is corrupt, say goodbye to recovery.

Also, I will consider LG in the future too. Not motorola as it's been handed over to Lenovo and they are just going to make it worse like they are already doing with their products. Project ARA most likely if it ever gets released but if not, it will be the next nexus. Apple and Samsung are a straight NO for me.

EDIT: Yeah, it's HTC BoomSound with Dolby causing excessive noise, HTC couldn't tune it properly or even implement it properly. Atmos has significantly less noise and, with my configs, almost got rid of all the noise :D release will be soon, I hope sometime next week :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] neniick:
I can confirm that with all the dolby stuff disabled there is pretty much no static noise at all, so its definitely the software.

With atmos from the test the sound is pretty clean, except for the volume leveler which is pure shyte on low volume, static and artifacts all over the place.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Wael:
[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] cool! Thanks for your work man :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
i also don't like volume leveler...pretty much sh1t, because on every volume percent, doesn't matter if headphones or Speakers it has annoying noise and also the fact that volume doesn't Change properly kills it
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
I've fixed that bug on volume leveller, now it's not insanely loud and it dynamically normalises the audio effectively.

The only reason for noise is because of normalization, loud parts have a limiter so it won't deafen you, quiet parts suddenly gain more audio to keep consistent volume thought the whole song. However, more gain = more noise and noise is always more noticeable in quiet parts.

Personally, I have it on since some of my albums have slight volume differences with others. Like I have one album just released and the volume is appalling, you just don't expect to hear "quiet" metal :D also I have 2 other albums which are too loud so volume leveller deals with my volume woes without me constantly pressing the volume rocker up/down.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] commencal661:
Ah, a fellow metalhead, I see :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
yea you're right. sometimes it really helps, but since only one Album is quiet and the others are louder i don't use it really...also i listen mostly to Music on spotify and 99% of the Music if you set to extreme Quality has the same volume so it won't damage your ears in any way :)

and as Long as i use the m7, which shouldnt be Long anymore, i will use the Walkman soundmod, beecause it's much better on m7, especially for my sony...with m8 and other phones it will be very different...

when using aosp or gpe i always used Dolby atmos, which worked really fine with those roms :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Haha, in case you were interested, the album I am talking about is Trivium - Silence In The Snow. The songs are good, the volume is noticeably quiet (one volume step lower) compared to all my other albums.

Yeah, but I listen to all my music on my 64GB sdcard [emoji14] around 20-22GB worth of 256kbps M4A (AAC), 320kbps MP3 and 1000+kbps FLAC. I don't really stream and I don't pay for any of my music hahaha, come at me NSA!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
i only pay for Music if the Artist really deserve it! :D mostly german guys who really did something great and who aren't or weren't big here at that time...also a good Thing i have with spotify and my contract is that it allows me to stream over mobile Network without loosing data. so i can stream highest mp3 or aac files (don't know which are in spotify) without loosing data!

i have also some flac files on phone...about 30-60 mb...are those really full flac? or are real flac files much higher when we say 4-5 mins of length?

when i get back the m8 or a z5 i will probably get a 64gb micro sd from sandisk which is sold by Amazon for around 20 €...and much better then the Samsung ones at the nearly same Price :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
16bit 44.1/48KHz are usually 20-40MB average per file.

Sorry if my questions are already been asked and answered. But 754 pages and no real idea which keyword to search made it hard for me to look it up by myself.

I'm using Spotify for listening music. After getting some decent headphones (Beyerdynamics 102 iE) I'm trying to optimize the playback quality software wise. My question is, whether I benefit from this mod even though I dont like to use dolby presets. I'm looking for more accurate, less noisy playback. Does this mod also increase the sound quality of the default playback libraries? Or would this requiere changes in the kernel, as the drivers are stored there?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
This mod might benefit for you without Dolby. Dolby is just an add-on to the mod itself. The soundmod is a system wide mod which means it replaces, adds and modifies internal system filed which are used by Android OS. So in other words, any sound output in the OS should be affected by the mod.

I should make it clear for everyone, Dolby is NOT the main part of the mod, it's merely an add-on to the mod. You don't need it for this to work.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mostafa Wael:
[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] so you fixed the volume leveler in dolby atmos ?! Awesome man! Keep up the good work :)
