[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Perhaps will release this weekend buddy, sorry, just been too caught up in the kernel stuff lately haha!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Take your time. :3
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] frankcck:
It's gonna be a great weekend.:D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Hello everyone, I am just here to say that I haven't abandoned this mod, just been really caught up with kernel development lately :)

Good news! v32 is just about ready!!! Added speaker only option in the AROMA installer also which includes my AcoustiX HiFi sound preset for Theatre Mode ;)

Should be released very very soon!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
V32 is up! However it is NOT compatible with SYSTEMLESS MAGISK USERS. People who use Magisk on custom ROMs will have no problems installing the normal zip :)

Will need someone who knows Magisk to make a module for me :)

Changelog:

AcoustiX Audio v32:

- AcoustiX Cinematic: Retuned using Dolby Atmos port

- AcoustiX Lite: Retuned using Dolby Atmos port

- AcoustiX HiFi (Speakers): Enabled GEQ (only just noticed it was disabled ever since HiFi was introduced)

- Added AcoustiX Speaker Only Enhancement option

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Thank you for that! :) That means one can use AcoustiX v32 side by side with the Dolby Atmos Port by ahrion?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yes but only under some circumstances. If Ahrion's Dolby Atmos ports does not break HTC BoomSound then you can use them both. If it does break boomsound then this mod will be completely useless.

If you can use both, I would suggest you either use Theatre Mode on speakers and Atmos for headphones. I never recommend mixing DSPs meaning no mixing with BoomSound headphone presets + Dolby Atmos because you'll be overprocessing and can result in unnecessarily higher battery drain when playing back audio. You can still do it if you really wanted to though, it just won't sound the way I intended them to sound :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
I will try it! But one question: If BoomSound works as intended, how can I choose to use AcoustiX for speakers and Atmos for headphones? I guess by swiching between Theatre Mode and Music Mode, right?

But all in all, thanks for the update! Changelog sounds promising, now I'm curious about the sound :D :D

EDIT: Could this work side by side with Ainur Pandora Magisk? Or if you already said, it's better to only use one single mod?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
You can keep BoomSound turned on for speakers, just switch to Theatre Mode and leave it at that. Then when you don't use headphones, you would need to turn off Atmos as it will also play through speakers also. That's the main reason why I don't use Atmos anymore ;) Great for headphones, but absolutely sucks for speakers and I really don't have the time to be switching and turning on/off atmos all the time :p

Just a tip: Theatre Mode sounds A LOT clearer now, but this means volume output has decreased. You'd need to select "optimal" (or whatever is your personal preference) to boost speaker volume back to normal again.

EDIT:

Well that depends if it modifies BoomSound. I personally do not use any other soundmods except for mine because I like to keep it clean, you can use it if you must but again, if it modifies audio then my mod will not sound like I intended it to.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DaveedDB:
Yes that Theatre mode sounds so good I can hear all the instruments so clean and clear :svetius:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] johnnyman25:
Latest version works with full viper rom?

HTC 10 Matte Black Power
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
There are no ROM restrictions... besides the fact that the mod won't work on AOSP ROMs.

Please do at least try and flash it before asking the question, it's not like it's going to screw up your phone by doing so.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Martybug:
I use this MOD with last Viper Rom and works fine!!! The sound is good and clear!!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] Which headphones do you use for tweaking? I seem to remember that somewhere in this thread, you use the Piston v3? (I own them at least :D ) What about the HTC headphones which come together with the 10?

So at all, I have to say that the experience is now with AcoustiX v32 totally different than before. Espacially when sound is played through speakers, it's incredible clear. I guess this is the best setting for speaker output, as one cannot expect much bass through speakers anyways.

When played through headphones, I'm just a bit unsure....It's much clearer now as well, but a bit...I don't know...less "aggressive"?! I have to try a bit further I guess, though it sounds well all in all, no question :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
my almighty, one of a kind, Sony MDR1-RNC :D Literally use it all the time unless it's raining :p

Other than that, my backup earphones are these: http://www.mi.com/en/headphonespro/ (The first pair earphones I actually like to hear, and I'm a headphones guy :p). Planning to get these soon: http://www.mi.com/en/headphonesprohd/

But really, everything is tuned with MDR1-RNC except for the earphone presets. I've had them for a bit over 3 years now and if they were to ever break, I'd either buy the same again or move to the MDR-1ADAC which I am very very interested in buying soon!

Man, Sony makes amazing headphones.

They do sound softer as I've tuned them more precisely in Dolby Atmos mod, but more softer - less fatigue on ears :D They sound more "comfortable" I would say but still very clear and the bass is quite punchy still (at least for my headphones they are)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Thanks for your detailed answer :)

I'm just no headphone but more the earphone guy :D

But these Xiaomi earphones look great. Would you recommend your Mi earphones? I just ask because I thought about buying one of them :D Would you mind to give a review once you could try the HD version of the earphones? Because I would not be sure which version to get :D

And yeah I completely agree with you, the sound really is more comfortable now. I espacially noticed that when switching BoomSound on and off. Bass is a bit softer now, but the sound overall isn't that "sharp" anymore and yes, more comfortable. :) all in all, thank you for your great work :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
I highly recommend the ones I have now (Pro, non-HD version with dual drivers) but I have been thinking about the new HD version with 3 drivers. However I've been looking at the reviews over at head-fi and apparently there is a common issue with defective balanced armature drivers on arrival (so audio will not sound balanced). I may get it sometime in the future, but I won't be jumping right away (besides, I use headphones more than earphones because audio output is far, far more superior on larger drivers).

As for HTC's Hi Res earphones, I was highly highly disappointed in them because they were extremely uncomfortable (at least for me) to listen to. The upper mid are way too overpowered and the whole damn thing sounded too "compressed". It would just hurt my ears if I had listened to them for more than 10 minutes... Additionally I had to make a completely different audio preset for them which was awkward as f*ck to make, I don't even know how these could be "Hi Res". It definitely was not on par with any high end earphones I've heard.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Thanks a lot for this summary and espacially for the hint concerning the HD version! I think I'll get the non-HD version in near future :D

That's nice to know concerning HTC's in-ears. I thought they would sound well due to their "Hi-Res" label, but I haven't tried them out yet. But your review sounds really disappointing...doesn't matter, the Mi Piston V3 are good and then I am curious about the Headphones Pro :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yeah unfortunately HTC's Hi-Res label is nothing but to trick users into thinking they've really done something good with them.

Headphones Pro sounds really nice, but maybe a bit to "tinny" (very very clear treble thanks to Balanced Armature drivers) to some people's tastes. The bass is alright, as decent as I've heard through earphones at least with it's dynamic drivers at the back.

You should consider investing in some headphones though if you really want to hear quality, larger drivers (40mm+) can output much much better bass, mids, and highs while giving more spacious sound stage. Even mid-range headphones will suffice ;) I only rarely listen to earphones now because nothing has beaten the audio of my MDR1-RNC :p

Interested to hear how the Mi Pro HD earphones sound like, never heard tri-drivers in earphones before :silly:
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
On the one hand, it's nice to know, on the other hand, it's disappointing to hear that HTC is kidding us and wants us to believe this would be Hi-Res Earphones, but in fact, it's just a trick:silly::rolleyes:

Hmm, I really would be interested in the Headphones Pro, though you pointed out that they could sound a bit tinny. As I've already mentioned, I own the pre-predecessor, the Xiaomi Piston V3, and they are pretty good. The sound is more "V-shaped". But for the music I listen to, this is quite good :D

Yeah, I trust you concerning the headphones :) But for now, they are too expensive for me :/ Perhaps somewhere in future ;) Therefore, the earphones are the better option for me now :)

But asked in another way: You would never recommend expensive earphones, as headphones overall are much better concerning soundquality?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ahrion:
Glad to see you back man.

I've been trying to reach you on Hangouts. Hit me up dog.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
When you've listened to headphones for a long time, going back to earphones will make the audio sound really "packed" and not as clear as headphones :p I personally wouldn't buy expensive earphones due to tiny driver size, once you listen to headphones with 40 or 50mm drivers, the sound quality is completely different! It is a very good investment if you are an audiophile :) They may not be as portable as earphones, but everything else that is better will make up for it!

Sorry bro! Forgot to mention I don't use hangouts anymore :) I've moved to telegram though, will PM you!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Thank you very much for your opinion! :) Anytime in future, I will consider to buy worthy headphones ;) For nowm I have to stick with quite "cheap" earphones :D (just reading some reviews of the Mi Pro :D )
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yeah as for cheap earphones, Xiaomi's Mi earphones (Whether Pro or ProHD) are the BEST earphones you can buy for that price :p it can compete with £50-£80 earphones imo :) I will eventually buy the Pro HD one with tri-drivers when I do have some left over money but until then I don't think they're worth the hassle if you do get a defective unit. Be very careful of fakes though, once you get them listen to them immediately. You can only tell if the BA driver is working if the audio you hear is more tinny/higher treble than any other earphone's you've tried :p They really do enhance and make a difference to the treble!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Thank you so much for the hint!! If I get them, I thought to buy them via Xiaomi's official shop or via www.gearbest.com, seams to be a trustworthy shop :)

I'm just curious if they can beat my older Xiaomi Piston V3 :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DroidIt!:
To throw my hat in the ring :D I've been an earphone guy just for practicality to this point. I've been eyeballing this SteelSeries set as Steel seems to have quite a bit of iterations with Dolby 7.1 under their belts and there headphones average pretty high ratings....and I'm a gamer. :) However if you do need a good set of earphones, a set like these Creative's are really pretty nice. I've had quite a few brands over the years like Creative, Ultimate Ear and Bose and the Creative's have always had the best sound reproduction for my money. The UE's and Bose's did create nice sound, but the UE's were a bit flat and the Bose's a little base heavy. I personally like the earphones because I can do yard work, stuff in the garage and still use them in a quiet setting. :) I saw the Creative's I'm using right now aren't available on Amazon (US) but I have had a couple of different Creative's over the years and they do seem to make good earphones for the money. My opinion :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Thanks :) I also own these earphones by Creative, but they sound inferior to the Piston V3 to be honest. So I haven't used them for 2 years now :D There are so many earphones to choose from :D It's hard to decide :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DroidIt!:
Interesting. :) I might have to give a look at the Piston V3's then. Those Creative's look almost identical to what I had. Lol, I try to balance price with sound quality because I tend to be a bit hard on my earphones, like I said yard work and such. Thanks for the input though. Might be my next set after I kill these. :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
But I'm unsure if the Piston V3 are still available somewhere. If not, try the earphones [MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] suggested. :)

EDIT: Just did some research. And I found espacially this one: Meze 11 NEO Looks really interesting, reviews sound promising, and this all at a price level which is ok I would say. Perhaps I'll get these instead of Xiaomi's. I'll have to think about this, espacially because the price is triple than of the Xiaomi's...
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Me next! :) I keep going through earbuds because I accidentally keep tugging them, causing them to quit working after 2 months or so. Are there any earbuds that are:

•Durable

•Have balanced lows, mids and highs

•Affordable. Anything from the $20-$30 price range.

I plan on switching back to using AcoustiX with earbuds as I'm currently using AcoustiX for the speakers.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
For the price of $20-$30 I would definitely recommend the Mi in-ear headphones Pro. For any earphones below 30, either these are your go-to for being the best bang for your buck. Trust me, despite how cheap they are, the quality can compete with $50+ mid-high end earphones!

Pro might be too tinny for you due to only using a Balanced Armature driver and a Dynamic driver at the back. Pro HD has TWO dynamic drivers and one Balanced armature driver which "should" stop it from being so tinny as it was from the Pro version. HOWEVER, as I've stated before, Pro HD can have a defect where the BA driver on one earphone side stops working, making the sound shift to either slightly to the right of left. I have not bought these yet so I can't personally give you feedback on them. I'm just saying the Pro might be tinny for some people because of greatly enhanced treble thanks to the BA driver :)

Durability wise they are decent for what they are worth, the Pro have braided cable but aren't that great. It is quite durable but the braids can get worn out and can start clumping up in certain points along the cable - not too big of a deal as they just clump up on some points after a while but it's still really durable (at least for me) and have had no problems with them so far after half a year of using them.

There are probably some others but imo, at this price range, nothing beats Mi in-ear headphones in terms of audio quality :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ahrion:
Nice awaiting reply. Finally got Atmos to work in Enforcing Selinux.

Looking forward to see more of your work.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xunholyx:
Does anyone here use or have tried the JBL Reflect Aware C earphones? I got a discount code from Team HTC to get them for half price but I can't find any good reviews online except for their version for the iPhone.

If you've tried/use them, would you recommend them?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Or if you really don't want to risk anything, but want to have good earphones though, I would recommend the Piston V3 (I own them for ~1,5 years now, still working working without problems, and the sound is quite good as well). These are exectly the ones I own, these seem to be a slightly different, "fresh" version, but the price seems to be unbeatable ;)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mjh1978:
My experience, sound/music was much louder on v30 internal speakers with the same exact settings I had set for v30 on v32. Any reason?

HTC 10 ICE Rom

ElementalX Kernel

AcoustiX Audio MOD
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mjh1978:
I did select "optimal" just like I did in v30 and have Boomsound set to "theater mode" and the volume at max is much quieter on v32 then is was on v30. Also this is on a HTC 10.

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mobileman88:
Beyers are great especially their headphones. Good bang for the buck
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
I'm really curious and can't wait to receive them :D
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] miloshdrown:
I'm happy to make the modules for you but all you have to do is take the ones for V31, replace the XML in the zip with V32. Then just modify the module.prop file and change the label to V32 and bump the version from 1.2 to something higher. (That value tells Magisk Manager that it's a newer version of the module).

This is what I did and it worked flawlessly.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
improved my audio experience by a lot using stock HTC headphones on the M9 on "HTC Pro Studio" and wow especially with hiphop and edm lol
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tallywacker:
I've tried to install this MOD on my Verizon HTC 10 unlocked s-off running nougat and elemental x kernel every time I go and look in both system and sys and there isn't

a acoustix txt. File either by itself or any folder I literally looked thru them all lol. Went back and read OP for the 100th time and still can't figure out what I'm doing wrong any ideas would be appreciated!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
If it's not in /system (above build.prop) then for some reason the installer cannot mount your system in recovery automatically. If that is the case, simply mount it manually before flashing the mod and you should be good to go.

If all else fails, copy and replace ds1-default.xml in /system/vendor/etc/Dolby with the option you want (by going through the options in folders of the mod zip)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
mixing this with Viper4Android is amazing cause i like having my headphones be loud lol
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tallywacker:
you sir are a Badass that worked like a freaking charm!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jestercore:
So, latest version for M8/E8 - v28?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
That depends if your ROM fully supports HTC BoomSound WITH Dolby Audio (one found in M9, HTC 10 etc.). If you do not have this, this mod is useless for you unfortunately as it does not touch anything else but dolby config file.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
In the OP you mention GEQ which I'm guessing means Graphic Equalizer but how would we use this option assuming of course it's something we can edit. ⊙﹏⊙
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Well, it is still called GEQ but it's not really Graphic. It's in the config still, and since I've been doing this for literally 3+ years now I know how everything works in dolby config files. It is quite complicated to explain. If you want a real graphic equalizer, you are better off installing Dolby atmos mod by [MENTION=5357345]ahrion[/MENTION] in the Android Software Development forum so you can tune the settings yourself. It is much easier this way because having me explain everything will take too much of my time and the config is simply too complicated to understand without any knowledge about it.

You can edit the config file all you like, but without proper documentation you're going to have trouble understanding what each parameter does. The whole point of this mod is for me to tune for you guys, it may not be perfect and not everyone will have the same opinion because sound is very subjective to every person here.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jestercore:
I have stock latest Sense 7.0 with Boomsound only. So v28 for me? That's bad, hard to find old versions descriptions and download links.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Everything is in the OP. Besides, it's not my problem that the m8 does not have Dolby.

This thread has spanned for 3 years now, there's way too many versions to look through and i remove ones which are very old.

FYI I have deprecated the old HTC devices a long long time ago, so this isn't anything new. I'm not obliged to continue supporting these very old devices. Besides, it's not my problem if HTC did not make the m8 have HTC BoomSound with Dolby Audio.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jestercore:
You doing perfect work, I'm sure, but if i have old rom, and i need old version of sound mod, which is hard to achieve. Can't find link in op-post.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
You can look as hard as you want... It's just not there lol xD

It's like searching for an eagle by going deep sea diving... Won't find it.

Your best bet is to find someone who is still using and has the old zip of the old "dragon-fi mod".

That is the one which applied to M8 and prior (non dolby boomsound).

Or you've got the option of going to Ainur who has most of the same ALSA mods. Kronos for M8 should be what you are looking for.

I hope i've helped.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jestercore:
Thank you for info, gonna try ainus kronos. Even I've found AcousticX v28. Sorry for my bad English, I'm not native english speaker​.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Nah it's fine I love the modifications you've already made. I was just confused is all, but I only added V4A to my phone simply for 4x the volume I haven't turned on anything else....maybe it's the HTC headphones that are too low on output...
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
That's understandable, also using V4A for volume boosting is fine but you can expect there might be higher drain due to V4A being quite a power hungry DSP. I just wouldn't recommend you mixing Dolby with other effects in V4A due to the chance of overprocessing and making the audio sound distorted or worse overall :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kyuubi10:
You're welcome.

Just to help you out, so that you are not searching in vain, here is how it works:

AcousticX v28, still not compatible with Stock-based M8 ROMs.

AcousticX requires Dolby Audio, so if you are using a ROM ported from HTC 10 it could work because it will have the required dolby files.

AcousticX has nothing to do with the old Dragon-Fi mod.

AcousticX mods Dolby config files, Dragon-Fi used to mod ALSA + other things to force Hi-Res. ( [MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION] correct me if I'm wrong.)

AcousticX will never work on Stock M8 ROMs...

You need to look for Dragon-Fi mod, or use Kronos from Ainur.
