[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Testing audio wrapper, patchset 9

[MENTION=3457922]stargo[/MENTION] ; [MENTION=4882455]soundgirl101[/MENTION]

Tested audio wrapper, patchset 9 this evening on stock cm11 05/04, XT912 Verizon US.

Results:

* Remark: Finally nailed SoundGirl101's "flutter" effect.

Installed patchset 9 this evening by overwriting current patchset 8, resetting permissions 644, -rw-r--r--, root:root. Rebooted.

Bluetooth Headset: Plantronics M155

Tested on Google Voice Search for "Shell Gas Station" and "Pizza Restaurant". Both times got UK Female artificial speech replying to both search results. Perfect w/out distortion on any kind.

Note: Language and Input, Text to Speech set for SVOX Classic TTS, Victoria UK. I like the UK accent and this may be what is disabling the voice dialer from speaking, not sure.

Used Speech Commander Free and set Language for English US, tested for call out while running Power Amp Pro to play Shania Twain, locally. App Power Amp Pro draws a load of over 50% @ startup (Using Xposed Module Cool Tool to monitor CPU Activity and percent load.) When trying Speech Commander (Uses classic Google Voice interface.) while playing music on Power Amp Pro, CPU Load approached 100%, 94%, music switches to phone speaker instead of Bluetooth headset, confusing the speech app. Had very difficult time deciphering my speech command. When CPU Load hit 80% and above, triggered Power Amp Pro to "Flutter", as in "stuttering". The music did stop stuttering when CPU load dropped back down again. Not effective to use Power Amp Pro while trying speech commands. Gave up.

Tested again w/out music, works perfectly to call out, search the web, or do anything. Searched for "Shell Gas Station" returned "Here are the listings for Shell Gas Station" in Google search with classic UK Female artificial speech, perfectly.

Repeated test with Google Search, running Google Play Music playing Abby Road. CPU load @ 15-28% in Google Play Music. Music stopped, phone politely waited for audio input (Google Play Music does not force it's way through phone speaker while being paused by Google Voice Search, they work quite effectively together.) Repeated command "Shell Gas Station". Google Search replied in Classic UK Female voice, "Shell Auto Care" at top of list, proper search string in search box "shell gas station". Google Play Music faded quickly back in, never skipping a beat. Repeat test with "Mexican Restaurant" while watching total CPU load, never breached 600MHz or 50%, no stuttering ever nor does it breach the phone speaker. "Here are your results for Mexican Restaurant within 15 miles" were reported by classic UK Female artificial speech, perfectly. Google Play Music resumed. CPU load never exceeded 50% with compatible Google services running for services and music.

Results Summary:

I do not believe Power Amp Pro to be 100% compatible with cm11 and Bluetooth voice services. The app demands a high CPU usage, thus skyrocketing CPU load, causing Power Amp Pro audio to "Stutter" under this incredibly high CPU load. App also refuses to "be polite" about voice search interruptions and will force music through speaker while Bluetooth search is in progress. Audio stutter only apparent so far with Power Amp Pro and high CPU loads. End Result to SoundGirl101's "Flutter" Report.

Bluetooth Audio Wrapper patchset 9 works extremely well with XT912 phones and Kit Kat cm11, build 05/04. NO issues at all other than with incompatible apps such as Power Amp Pro. The Google Play Music service got along with Google Search and Commands quite well, never exceeding 50% CPU load. I would say you have a winner here, Michael. Proceed to Publish unless you have any further spit and polish to apply. :highfive:

Sidenote:

I want to get off this build of 05/04. The black screen lockups are getting quite bad again. First time tonight called friend in car to test his Bluetooth. Call went through so he refused call as talking was not necessary. Total black screen, no way out but to force hard power down. Again while testing and typing up report. Bluetooth active in use, Google Play Music playing Abby Road. Music stopped, could not get screen lit, only buttons. Heard phone announce in Bluetooth headset that Connection has stopped. Had to force a power down again. Grrrrrrr! M6 snapshot is only thing out there. ...sigh.

These are my personal phone results. Your mileage may vary. ;)
