You're right about clarity, the more advanced way would be something V4A does with XHiFi audio reconstruction and/or spectrum extension.

Most clarity boost is not generic treble boost, but targeting specific frequencies in the high end of audio that impacts the most in specific areas of audio. I meant to talk about that more specifically and not just a "treble boost". I don't like using generic bass/treble boosters, (thankfully Dolby has neither), I have my own signature audio curve to start with as a template, then adjust specific bands to match what I want to hear/improve. That's what I can do right now because Dolby is limited and I can see where you're coming from here.

I just don't recommend mixing DSPs regardless of whether or not it will overlap some DSP controls, but at the end of the day it's the user's choice what they want to do with their audio, I'm just releasing a base config so people can manipulate the audio further if they wish. Just a precaution is all, because if there were to be any bugs or glitches, most people's first guessed would be that this mod caused it.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
EDIT: tried thanking your post but had run out of my 8 thanks limit lol.

Consider this my thanks!

Uhm, i'm getting excited at how your mod sounds now... Will begin testing tonight :)

And yes, i find annoying how some people are always pointing fingers without having an understanding of what they are talking about.

As I have mentioned it on another thread... It seems there's too many people who feel entitled to things here in XDA. They fail to see the point of a community.

On a side note... Just out of curiosity, how did you deal with that annoying peak at around 1-3kHz range?

Or was it just me who noticed?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
what do you mean about annoying peak?

My signature audio curve has always aimed to significantly get rid of the mids (2-6KHz range) because our ears are most sensitive with these frequency bands
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
Perfect :)

I'll listen to it tonight and give feedback tomorrow.

Sounds like you've got it under control.

And it's exactly what you described, ears most sensitive at that frequency range.

Many audio mods don't address it.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
4 years of audio experience now my friend :) I've tuned so much ever since the HTC One X back in 2012 that I have a signature audio curve now! I can't listen to any music without reducing that frequency range anymore. As you may know already, reducing that frequency range will also make listening to long periods of audio have less risk of damaging your hearing as well as reducing fatigue :)

Alas, the most challenging thing I've ever had to tune were the HTC Hi Res earbuds. The flawed internal design makes that frequency range go mad crazy! I've been able to reduce it significantly but it still sometimes hurts your ears. There isn't much I can do to rectify this hardware problem but I'm doing the best I can.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
Hehe you are doing really really well :)

That's the device that got me into Rooting :P my first HTC device!

And yes you are perfectly right... (I studied music tech, almost chose it for a career. But chose IT/Networking instead lol).

Reducing that frequency range will reduce risk of damage :).

On that note, i have done some minor testing of your mod... I stuck with HTC Pro Studio profile.

That's AcousticX+ right?

It sounds great on my Shure 215.

Unfortunately have no full size headphones to try it with.

Only feedback I have... Raise Sub-Bass a tad (below 100Hz range), lower 125-250Hz range just a tad as well.

And yes... Def raise clarity, so i'm guessing above 10kHz range? I want to hear those hi-hats! :D

Everything else feels perfect, vocals and lead guitars were sweet... Taking full center stage.

Rhythm guitars were powerful.

Bass is powerful but overpowering at 125Hz, and it feels a bit canned, has overly tight low end at sub 100Hz.

Highs are great! Just want to hear the hihats and cymbals resonate above 10k range :)

[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] I've tried uninstalling your mod by dirty flashing rom but boomsound settings still display your settings (although no sound plays when your profiles are activated). Does this mean the mod is completely removed or do I need to do something else to remove it?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
The thing is, AcoustiX+ is only meant for large driver headphones (40mm+), they were only intended to be used for headphones. That's why I added AcoustiX Lite for earphones. The reason why (actually it's 200-300Hz high bass) is overpowering is because they were not meant for earphones.

I will try tuning AcoustiX Lite again, as well as AcoustiX+. AcouetiX Lite already has enough clarity imo, I could increase the bass a bit more though.

BoomSound still display my settings? What does that mean?

Dude, all you need to do, like I have said more than twice now, is to restore ds1-default.xml in /system/vendor/etc/dolby.

You must have done something wrong because my mod literally modifies one file, it shouldn't be hard to restore it back to stock.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jhadsfi:
I did do that. I deleted those files and then dirty flashed the rom. I still see this in boomsound settings.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
DUDE..... serious? you have by default those in the settings... everything is fine. you never saw the boomsound settings before? :o

a shame for an HTC user :o
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jhadsfi:
Haha wtf. I swear I never saw it them before I installed your mod. I have set a couple of profiles before too. But I don't remember them being there. There is no sound output when I select anyone of them btw.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
lmao those are stock profiles. My mod never changed the profile names.

Wipe system only then reflash your ROM and try again, must be something that you screwed up in your system partition to break boomsound.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jhadsfi:
Haha stupid of me. I will try that later. Thanks a lot for helping.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jwtiyar:
After flashong it i have some problems with launching games when the game laucnh it will force close setting UI, ANY ONE?

after first launch and fc second time work ok.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
wipe cache and dalvik cache? but it really has nothing to do with the mod. it modifies/changes ONE file. nothing more. if you face issues always wipe cache and dalvik cache!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jwtiyar:
didn't wipe cache /dalvik.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Definitely nothing to do with my mod. You've probably done something wrong. Reflash your ROM.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jwtiyar:
Yhe problem happened when i installed the mod

Camera app or any other camera will fc also.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
wipe system and reflash your rom, something is broken there, but definitely not related to the mod. which rom do you use?

i have tested that for zero several times, never an issue with system or whatever
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ahrion:
[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] Contrary to popular belief, misinformation, etc; if a library is loaded by a config (audio_effects) and is confirmed with the media server (audio flinger) as running then it theoretically can work without any apps. Dolby for instance may possibly work with just the required lib files without the two apps, however it wouldn't work to the extent that the apps themselves do. Once the audio flinger loads the files, the system can and might be changed/affected by the libraries. That's not to say that it will and there little to no proof that it would even happen or work. Sometimes certain libs that are loaded by audio_effects might reference other UUIDs which in turn would require those extra libraries to be included. However, it's difficult to find other dependencies sometimes, but mostly can be done by decompiling the libraries.

All the extra stuff can be considered bloat if it isn't loaded by the audio flinger or referenced in the libraries. Some of which are, some of which aren't.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
- So, technically they aren't working as intended/properly compared to the real thing.

That's what I'm talking about.

But yeah I get what you're saying, it's just most of the time I see other audio mods just shoving billions of files as much as possible into one whole zip.

Anyway, you work hard at what you do porting audio effects properly and I think I speak for everyone when I say we all appreciate that. I don't think XDA would get this far with Atmos mods/other ported audio effects if it weren't for you to give the development a push.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
[MENTION=5357345]ahrion[/MENTION] [MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION]

Hey guys, I've got some questions regarding dolby audio and Dolby atmos.

Ahrion, i know your port of Atmos ports over more than just the dax lib file.

But the other files, such as the stagefright file and the "hal" are already included by default in HTC 10.

Would using the native files of the HTC break atmos?

Let's say, if I include the lib file in the appropriate folder, add the dax-default.xml file in etc/dolby/ and make the appropriate change in audio_effects would that work? Using the stock HTC 10 files to complete the port?

Zero... How exactly do you manage to use the Atmos GUI to mod the ds1-default.xml?

Ultimately, my goal is to be able to use HTC native dolby audio as a base for max quality and compatibility + atmos as a sw effect to adjust the sound to the earphones I use, and possibly for the surround sound which is much better in Atmos.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Easy peasy, DAX and DS1 configs only have different syntax and structures, they still have a 20 band EQ and boolean/integer values (min/max) are all the same. The only difference is, HTC's Dolby stores EQ in ds1-default.xml because we cannot change it with a GUI, other Dolby ports (non-Atmos/old Dolby) used to store their current EQ configs in another xml file in the app data. Atmos stores all the info (not just the EQ but every EQ including ones in the config file) in a database file in the app data. I simply take the values out and place them in ds1-default on the HTC 10. That's what I've been doing for ages.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
You absolute genius!

Btw have you ever been able to get Atmos running by adding only the lib file and changing audio_effects? Keeping the other files stock as mentioned?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Nope, I would imagine Dolby Audio Service determines things like this but I may be wrong, [MENTION=5357345]ahrion[/MENTION] is the one you should go to about atmos ports
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mattie_7:
Can anyone confirm v29 sounding nice on the HTC 10. I flashed v28 a while back and it was a no go. BTW I love this mod. Thanks guys
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
I quite like the sound of v29 on my HTC 10.

I've tested my hi-res HTC earbuds... It was heaven.

On my Shure 215se though i will need to find a way to adjust the sound to play nice with them.

So it depends which headphones/earbuds you listen through.

v30 will be very good though... Zero found a way to improve the sound even better!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] p50kombi:
Yeah, I had the same with my klipsch x12i's.

The profiles never sounded right unfortunately. They're amazing in ears though of very high quality.

Hope 30 is going to sound great again.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
fyi, I don't specialize in-ears as I almost always use my Sony MDR1-RNC headphones :) That's probably the main reason why they don't usually sound right. But even with AcoustiX Lite (tuned on earpods and old gen HTC earphones), I'm not happy with listening to small drivers anymore as I'm so used to hearing large headphone drivers in my music. I will try and spend more time on earphones but honestly, I can't stand tiny drivers.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
Ohh... That gives me an idea :)

What do you think of doing "head/earphone name" editions?

So like, the AcoustiX+ stays as it is, and the hi-res one too.

But for AcousticX lite the preset could be optimised for a specific earbud. Then you could have a repo with versions of AcousticX lite for specific earbuds.

This way you could spend less time on earphones, and let the community help :)

Besides, i can see why you don't enjoy small drivers... You need a good pair of powerful buds :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
But the problem is, if I release a new edition ALL of the old ones will have to be updated. You see why I don't release multiple versions?

I'm just gonna keep it the way it is, if you want to modify it for personal use then feel free to but remember AcoustiX is exclusive to me so public released would not be permitted. Due to a bad history of stealing my files, I don't trust anyone else to maintain my soundmod.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
True, i see what you mean. That would be a lot of work.

And yeh, it sucks people steal other's works.

They can't see the idea of community.

I've been increasingly disappointed with users in XDA.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fairyshacker:
any mirror available other than AFH? tks.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Having problem with the AFH link? I know AFH has been slow lately but the mod is like 1MB to download.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fairyshacker:
yes sir, not able to open the link..
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
http://www80.zippyshare.com/v/d4cYRtOY/file.html Try this one
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CharliesTheMan:
Having seen an email to devs that AFH had something about server links not appearing all worked out, I decided to test Zeros link. It's back up and running fine when I test it.

[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] on a separate note, download speeds should increase, they are adding more physical servers/hardwars in several cities this week I believe.

I included the screenshot from the link in Post #1 that I just tested
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yeah it's really weird, ever since the server changes about a month or two ago, AFH has been slow recently, but I'm glad they're fixing the issue! AFH is my favourite file hosting site for my mods :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fairyshacker:
flashed v29. how to find acoustiX presents. Only "htc ear in" available under boom settings.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Maybe read the OP properly please? It's all there, only you and one other person have been finding it difficult to use this very very simple mod :confused:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fairyshacker:
Got it from post #8671

Thanks... sorry to bother you, never expect there was an option available if we press dolby headphone effects.

btw, nice mod! :good:

EDIT: should we need to flash the mod again, if we flash a new kernel?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
there is no reason for it. why should we need to flash it again? it was mentioned about hundreds of times. only one single file will be modified. nothing else. this mod never ever messed with kernel stuff

should be answered by yourself very easily :P
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sheik_Yerbutay:
I'm actually having the same problem with not seeing the additional settings. I followed the instructions in the OP and didnt see the Acoustix Hifix settings even though the file you mentioned exists and says it was successful. I rebooted into recovery (TWRP) wiped dalvik and cache and reinstalled the mod.. still not seeing anything different. Am I missing a step somewhere (and yes I do know how to use the boomsound settings)?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
the profiles are still the same. All names are the same as before

is it that hard to get it? he didn't changed the profile names in settings.apk. so therefore they are the same. the acoustix profile names on first page are just like insider names.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Where in the hell did I mention "AcoustiX HiFi settings"???

to quote the OP:

I've even highlighted the

vital parts

of the information. Honestly, it's not hard to follow. If you know how to change headset profiles in BoomSound settings you should have NO PROBLEM using this mod. This is the third time someone doesn't understand how to use this SIMPLE MOD.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sheik_Yerbutay:
No it isnt hard to get and I undersand that is the case. What I am referring to is the following:

AcoustiX Resonance Speaker Boost Mod: This is a special speaker boost mod which aims to boost speakers when using "Theater Mode". There are 2 options, an "optimal" version to boost speakers at a relatively safe level and an "overdrive" version which boosts speakers even further but at the risk of distorted audio, audio clipping, and possible reduction of speaker life span.

I am not seeing these options, what am I missing? Thanks for the assistance!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
using "Theater Mode". Also, those settings are in the AROMA installer as options. Are you familiar with AROMA installer? an installer to flash in recovery which you can select different options? If I don't mention the settings are an added feature of the OS, don't assume anything else.

I seriously don't understand where people are getting wrong information from. It seems like 3 people have not been reading the OP properly and/or misreading/misunderstanding it entirely.

about 99% of my users know how to use this mod, only 3 people so far are having extreme troubles using my mod.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
only one of them can be used for speakers. and since theatre mode is a dolby config and music mode just without any EQ or so this is tweaked. flash optimal and try each volume step when playing music and change the modes

then flash overdrive and test it again too. Zero never said or wrote that you can choose on running system between both since you can only choose when flashing
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sheik_Yerbutay:
Look, I get what you are saying but Im not seeing the two options you mention in speaker mode (AcoustiX Resonance Speaker Boost Mod: This is a special speaker boost mod which aims to boost speakers when using "Theater Mode". There are 2 options, an "optimal" version to boost speakers at a relatively safe level and an "overdrive" version which boosts speakers even further but at the risk of distorted audio, audio clipping, and possible reduction of speaker life span.)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Read my edited post after that one I posted

To dumb it down:

Those are AROMA install options. The OP does read "when using Theater Mode".
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sheik_Yerbutay:
Thanks for the clarification, it wasnt clear in the instructions that it is only selectable during the install. Perhaps thats whats causing the confusion for others.

Nice work otherwise!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
You know what? Since there's been 3 people already I'll simplify the OP even more.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sheik_Yerbutay:
Haha well thats probably easier than dealing with us simpletons
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Perhaps add screenshots for those that are confused?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Way ahead of you ;) update OP now!

EDIT: for people who may look at the Personal audio profile in one of those screenshots, AcoustiX Enhancer is just a simple PAP which the configuration is using questions and answer in this order: 18-34, more than 2 hours per day, quiet, contemporary
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Nice! :P Anyway, I can't wait until v30 drops. It's exciting. :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] p50kombi:
So how do I use this mod again?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
you're such a joker mate
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] p50kombi:
It's not just here though...all over xda I see similar stupid questions popping up..

Maybe stupid isn't the right word, unneeded is better I guess.

And since pokemon go reared it's ugly head xda has become an ugly place to be...

It's getting hard work to wade through the posts to actually find useful and interesting information.

Pointing people to the OP and asking them to read it properly will just result in them getting ticked of at you.

I said it a million times and I'll say it again... Xda has changed...

And thus endeth the lecture of the day.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sheik_Yerbutay:
I would agree this site has changed for the worse over the years. Its beyond me why you have to be made to feel like an idiot for asking a simple question... but whatever, if it makes you feel better about yourself I guess that's all that matters.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] p50kombi:
I rest my case since you've just proven my point.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
He meant ppl like you. But let's keep this sh1t now away from this thread. Just learn to read and use search button. Keep reading at least always the 5 last pages. Helps more than asking unnecessary questions, which are answered about hundred times
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
I'd go one better...

Go read the XDA rules and guidelines...

[MENTION=3141535]Sheik_Yerbutay[/MENTION], have you read them yet?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] altimax98:
It works... I am running it right now :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] suua:
Can someone confirm that it works on CM 10.2?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ipmanwck:
Geez. Try Yamaha eph 100. Them headphones suck. Soundmagic e30s are even good.

HTC one with beats on are bass heavy but with purexaudio mod all is fixed )
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] drmooooy82:
hello zero and everyone, 1st of all , thanks to zero for this awesome mod . i have a question for zero , after installing your mod which included in ARHD 13.3 , i installed noozxoid E and neutron player . do u think that both apps will conflict with ur mod ? and if so which music player do u recommend which will give the best result?

BTW i tried it with maven player 3D and i found no differance than before with V4. thanks anyway.:crying:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NumairRana:
Wait so this mod turns the bass down?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] slipudatung:
Did for me on GE 4.3 stock
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nashshafrulrezza:
It not turning down bass.. but it increase clarity..
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Clselfridge:
+1 I did notice the bass is still the focus if you keep beats on. With beats off it is more natural sound. Beats pumps the bass up so much it drowns out the other sounds. This fixes that.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] threetwentyfizzle:
I wouldn't say it really turned bass down all that much. Bass is still very clear and booms. Overall sound is much more clear now. Like every instrument and vocals are distinct and separate whereas before on stock audio, it seemed like every sound was muffled together. I've tested on some high end Sony headphones, Beats Tour earbuds, and my car stereo, which is a high end 7.1 system, and trust me, sound BUMPS now. Loving V5 Zero, well worth the wait man!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NumairRana:
Thanks everyone for the responses, really appreciate it. Yeah I just tried it out and it kinda turned down the bass which sucks and it feels like the overall loudness is down. BUT pairing it with Fauxsound fixes the loudness and bass part. Wanna revert back to stock to compare but this mod is freaking genius so far. Only thing I'd want in the future is the bass back, that's my only honest criticism.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] c-prodigo:
Yes, sound feels a lot better now, on viperone, breaks xloud, but that never worked for me anyway...
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nashshafrulrezza:
Just use any eq to boost bass.. bass can be boost by using eq but not clarity.. that's why zero mod always more to clarity..
