Downloaded and flashed it ...but..

Sound enhancements are not working, when in settings under sound sound enhancements dont open at all

In walkman mode sound enhancements also dont open

Plus, it says in the OP that the overall sound coming out of the internal speaker has been increased but again, I did not feel any difference at all, please make this happen since as always internal speaker of the Z1 also is very weak therefore please, increased sound from the internal speaker for ringtones and notifications and increase sound from the in-call speaker greatly will be really nice...

Also, upload the stock sound file in CWM flashable format as well so if anyone wants to go back to stock...I know backup restore from TB should haven been done or backuy CWM or TWRP but I did not do any of those ... CWM & TWRP will reboot after 40 seconds so no use in making a backup for now, plus since my 64GB card is on its way I have not made any TB backups now.. So having a stock sound .zip file will help very much to me and to some other users also...

Hopefully these issues will be solved in the next update..cant wait...:D
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] gregbradley:
As with all these mods there should be a health warning in the OP that the only way to go back to stock is via a nandroid backup or a clean reinstall of the rom. These sound mods change so many files its next to impossible to manually go back yourself with out a backup.

I know this does not help you, but I hope others will read this and take the backup.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Yeah hope so .. anyways all i can do now is wait for the new version which has increase in sound from internal + in-call volume speaker (like it was there for Xperia Z) and also have the sound enhancements settings working
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
I will release v2 today

With fixed Sound Enhancement

It was a straight port from Xperia Z

It takes time to settle

Sent From My Vanir guy across the street
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Great Thanks a lot buddy, V2 will help me since i am without backup for sure...

and lets hope the V2 will have louder sound from in-call speaker and internal speaker...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
No problem

I know a way to fix it via Flashtool

Just flash the system partition once again

If you want stock
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
I guess this is the only way for now until Doomlord fixes the 40 seconds reboot in recovery ... once thats fixed then only we all will be able to perform Nandroid Backup...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
i am not making any apps tweaking yet

i need to bring Zero's presets into Walkman somehow

but for that we gotta be deodexing the whole ROM :(
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
Now we should have Walkman working as it should
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Just installed the V2

Used TWRP to flash first

- After booting, in settings the sound effects are still not responding, meaning I when click on sound effects nothing happens

- In walkman, in settings the sound effects are also not responding

- In google music player, when I click on settings and goto sound effects it opens, but when I goto EQ settings and select any new EQ the EQ sliders does not move at all they all remain at Zero which is right in the middle.

Used CWM to flash and same thing as above for settings, walkman, google music player.

So V2 is not working for me either...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
i told you to reflash the system partition using FlashTool

and then flash V2 :)

i got scared

cauz i have removed all old frameworks and apps from Z
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Okay I will but I have a few questions

1. I only need to flash the system partition right? so I download the official .534 rom and select only the system partition and flash?

2. Will flashing the system partition erase all my apps and data on the phone?

3. Can just flash the .534 de-oxed version patch from here... will this replace all old mod frameworks and file and then i can install your V2 mod, will this work also?

4. Noob Question: will de-oxeding my .534 firmware through the patch stop me from receiving official OTA updates?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
For all am saying

Dont deodex as of now

Use Indian's Generic FTF to flash the system partition

Exclude everthing from Flashing except system

And untick all the Wipes also

So that you dont loose your data
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Great Thanks for your help and advise .. downloading .534 IN firmware right now and also the latest version of flash tool, I have the old one for my Xperia Z and the old one does not have Z1 as selection ..

Will do what you said and then flash your mod ..hopefully this it will work..

---------- Post added 10th October 2013 at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was 9th October 2013 at 11:35 PM ----------

Alright

- Flashed system only from .534 firmrware

- Lost Root and recovery, so installed it again

- Flashed V2 using TWRP

Now its like nothing happened, I mean after flashing all is same as before... stock...

- Goto settings and then sound effects it works but there is nothing new all stock settings

- Goto walkman and settings and sound effects also works but all stock settings

So its like I havent even installed the mod ...

Is this what you intended from V2?? i am not sure thats why I am asking..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
Until recovery is sorted out

I am not gonna touchc the framework

Thats why you have stock preset

But the resampling rate is same as the Xperia Z
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] fer2503:
sorry but i don't understand if v2 now working properly or not and if we can flash it on stock odexed 534. thanks :)

p.s. does this mod increase the loudspeaker and 3,5 output volume?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
Flash this on any ROM :)

i tested it with monx and it works brillantly :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Rashkae:
awesome, been waiting for this. However, I have installed TWRP, and when I try to flash the .zip, my phone just immediately reboots, and I can't find any of the enhancements anywhere. Am I doing something wrong?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
Currently the enhancements arent application oriented

instead we still preserve the Super Sampling Rate for better mids :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Rashkae:
How did you get it working? I realize I may not even have TWRP or CWM installed on my phone (I tried installing Goomanager, Rom manager, TWRP manager...), they keep saying the C903 is not supported yet, etc.

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

Thanks! But how can i find out if it's installed correctly or not? On my old Z I could see the PureXAudio settings in the equalizer, etc
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
look

i didnt yet add the PureXAudio Presets now
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kashppo:
That's okay, he's just asking if there's a way to know if it installed correctly. I'd like to know as well.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Rashkae:
Yup exactly that - Is there a file we can look at to see a file version/filesize etc?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
why are you asking this question?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Rashkae:
Because I'm trying to verify it was installed correctly, since there are no visual clues (as I mentioned/asked earlier).
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
it will lol!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Rashkae:
Ah, ok. Because I mentioned earlier that I could not see the sound enhancements, and you said they are not in yet, so I was asking what other clues we can have to knowing if it's installed correctly or not.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] olokos:

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] thelostark:
A small question~

After apply the PureXAudio v2 Mod on my z1~

The docking notification sound disappear. (when I use the charging dock~)

Is it just me, or it's a bug needs to be fix?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
i didnt change any settings on that

will check it and tell

probably will report this to zero :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ashray_Vk:
Maybe a noob question, but is a deodexed Rom compulsory as of now for v2 ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
Nope :)

Okay now some beta testing:

Check whether Dock Sound works now

Download:

GoogleDrive
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] thelostark:
I did some testing with my docking notification sound~

I re-flash the rom suing Sony service update~ (completely fresh )

When I plug on the station the notification sound still did not ring up.

Then I when to other forum and ask about the Z1's docking notification sound~

Some of the user tell me they do not have the docking notification sound, too.

I have Two Z1. with me. (one belongs to my friend)

It strange one with notification sound and other one doesn't~

I think it's nothing to do with the mod~

But is there anyway I can enable it ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
Did ya flash v3?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] thelostark:
Nope~ I use V2~

I could not find V3 .

May I know where I can get those?

(never mind ~ I found the link~ sorry~)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
flashed the v3 with twrp. On settings and on walkmann I cannot see the option to turn on the mod...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MightyBear007:
theres no on or off switch lol

when you flash it its enable

you will hear that the Mids will be stronger and you will get more bass

Why doesnt SONY use amp for XZ1? Its nowhere as loud or bassy as HTC ONE. The sound quality suffers due to using SOC sound. Disappointing.

Do you able to give us more dynamic sound?

In v3 there's no presets yet, but the soundmod should work anyway?

I followed the instructions for my Xperia Z1 (firmware 257) to get CWN working,( youtube clip and script by Doomlord)

The batch file is telling me it worked but I can't get into recovery mode.

The led isnot changing to another color, any ideas?

Update1:

Also I tried to get the following to work in the ADB Shell:

#touch /cache/recovery/boot

reboot (did not reboot)

Still no result.

Update2:

Tommorow with flashtool downgrade to firmware 534.

Root with Kingo (worked)

Script started -> CWM already on phone

Still the same problem, the led still dont lights up when holding the volume up button while booting.

While flashing I didn't whipe anything that will be my last possibility to try, any idea's what I'm doing wrong.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] topcads:
After a few tries I found the post from krabappel2548 about cwm installing on the Xperia Z1.

Run the script and removed the old cwm and installed with the perfect working cwm for me.

So rooted by kingo in firmware 534 and then installed CWM recovery from krabappels2548 and works fine for me.

And installed the soundmod thanks for that.

Tonight I will OTA to 257.

I would appreciate bare version of this mod - with qualcomm dac optimizations and good resampling (if pure 44khz output is not possible), without stupid dsp effects (super duper bass ultra clear crisp and more clarity turbo 2014).
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Luhccas-X10:

Appreciate the work of developer but being an audiophile i don't like this emphatic naming schemes and excessive tweaks.

Pure audio by itself is a balanced one with optimization only where it have downs.

Maybe someone adopt the idea and do something for who want hear a high grade quality of audio in our phones. :)

Will buy a cold beer with pleasure for that person with a chubby donation. (and i bet that others will do the same)

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] GPKrzychuXxX:
i wait for somebody who is able to give us more dynamic range
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] qbic2:
From what I know, android is fixed @ 44.1 KHz, so I wonder how 192Khz sampling is possible.

Im afraid that just resampling chain will be longer, and whole operation is pointless without kernel driver replacement.

Right now we have 48KHz fixed hardware (by kernel driver), so....

Sound player -> 44.1 -> Kernel driver @ 48Khz crapupsample, -> DAC

Im afraid that 192Khz audio chain will look like this:

Sound player -> some sound mod 192Khz upsample -> 44.1 Khz android downsample -> kernel driver 48 Khz upsample -> DAC.

Is it correct or I'm missing something?

From kernel sources:

#define WCD9320_RATES (SNDRV_PCM_RATE_8000 | SNDRV_PCM_RATE_16000 |\

SNDRV_PCM_RATE_32000 | SNDRV_PCM_RATE_48000 |\

turn your volume up ;), seriously I can't hear any difference until you get to a certain level, and try flac files then you will definitely here the clarity

I always use my volume at 40~50%

using flac then?, make a difference? because at the end of the day it is up to your source to determine your output

this is nothing but dtmf phone tones, i dont see how these can be used for quality measurements. It produced same quality on all volume levels.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] qbic2:
Not really, open it in any audio editing program and look at spectral characteristics, only DTMF tones should be audible, on many devices with poor SRC implementation this file plays back with cracking sounds and other annoying effects.

..so probably soundmod works....
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] taranfx:

Depends on what you mean by broken. In 136 the sound enhancements only work in the Walkman App. In Spotify and Google play music it does nothing, you only get the standard flat sound, fiddling with treble does nothing.
