That's really something you should experiment with yourself. Depends on the music and your personal taste/what you're looking for. I change presets that I've set up depending on what's playing. If you Google something like how to set up eq or some basic sound and freq info, you should be able get an idea of how to go about it, then it's trial and error. A good place to start is a basic mid scoop with a bit of low and high increase, bump the first one or two freq up one or two notches and then curve down the center then back up to the highest freq, setting the highs about the same setting as the lows. This works pretty well with a large variety of music. Then you can start tweaking from there. Trial and error. Listen carefully to what's changing when you adjust. I think less is more. I don't go too too far above it below the center.

I'm totally new to the M8, but how do you flash the basic HK zip file with S-ON? That one sounds like it should work since I have the Sprint variant and I'd rather not mess around with unlocking the bootloader. Whenever I go to recovery I just get a screen with a giant <!> and no options at all, which is pretty strange. I'm used to seeing at least a few other options there.

Is boom sound still enabled? I cant see the icon or toggle but when i turn h/k off there is a drop in audio then it comes back up sounding almost as good as when h/k was on. If anything wheb on the audio sounds quieter and a bit distant like its underwater
[One (M8) Android Development] cbrown245:
With version 3 boom sound is disabled by default. All you need to do is go into system/customize/mns/ and edit the default prop from support Harmon false and change it to true and all is good .

Great work, working perfect on my VZW M8 and sound is amazing!
[One (M8) Android Development] buckifvr:
.

I've tried this about 2 weeks ago, and there was a big discussion about it. Yes you can do this and change the value to true and the BoomSound toggle will appear in Settings. You can toggle it on/off, but there is no sound processing. Nothing really happens. It's like turning a light switch on and off when the lamp is not plugged in.

[One (M8) Android Development] cbrown245:
It works on stock Roms and Roms based directly off stock , works fine for me.
[One (M8) Android Development] lumpaywk:
I might convert back, tbh with the loss of boom sound the front speakers suck big time and i think it sounds no better on headphones . Its a shame as i love the branding as well as wanting it to sound better will compare with the wifes m8 before i do to check its not my headphones.
[One (M8) Android Development] buckifvr:
So you have HK v3 installed and the value changed to true to get the BoomSound toggle back in settings, and you hear a difference when listening through the speakers when you toggle BoomSound on/off? Well okay then. Good for you.

Posted with my CleanROM M8
[One (M8) Android Development] cbrown245:
You won't hear a difference through the front facing speakers like on the m7 with beats . Boom sound is only intended to work with headphones through the headphone jack , bt headphones didn't work either . So enable boom sound and use it through headphones and you should hear the difference on both boom and hk
[One (M8) Android Development] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Yea if h/k is enabled BoomSound wouldn't work anymore...but if all who are having problems with the sound processing that it doesn't work, would do the same like me they will have better audio through speakers and headphones...

You can flash project era by zeroinfinity 16.1 which is compatible with h/k and should enable it really, or install another music player like n7player...since then I have awesome sound and h/k works as it should work :)

No if h/k is flashed only that will work...

No BoomSound works with both the front speakers and headphones. You can only turn it off when the headphones are plugged in.
[One (M8) Android Development] cbrown245:
Ok , if this is true then do this . Enable it and disable it with the default prop . Sounds the same . Enable and disable hk and you can hear a difference , and once you are on headphones it sounds even better . Boom sound isn't all that . Beats sounded better but that's my opinion . Hk is just as good as beats
[One (M8) Android Development] mike0122:
I'm not saying it works in tandem with H/K. Maybe I misunderstood his post. As far as I can tell BoomSound only sounded good threw the front speakers.

[One (M8) Android Development] NQNH:
V4A is an APK which you can install like a regular apk.

download the zip from the v4a thread and extract the files.

install the v4a for 4.x versions and install it.

open the v4a app and give it su rights, it will install the driver then.

after this you have to reboot your phone and your v4a should be activated.

i'm using it with h/k mod and it works great together.

[One (M8) Android Development] Div033:
Decided to give this mod another try as I'm now on a de-odexed rom, thinking odex was causing my earlier issues...

Unfortunately, LiveStage still force enables itself back on each time you skip music tracks. It won't show up in settings as being on, but toggle the setting on and off again and you'll hear the difference. This completely ruins the sound for me personally as I don't use ear-buds but rather car stereo and over-ear headphones.

Here's another who is having the same issue I am:

I wonder if this behavior is present on the official version too?
[One (M8) Android Development] mike0122:
I have never had that problem. What music player are you using?
[One (M8) Android Development] Div033:
Stock HTC music player. Which version of the M8 do you have? It might be a verizon specific issue, meaning the problem likely lies in the modded settings.apk.
[One (M8) Android Development] mike0122:
I have only used fusion player. On both cleanrom and viper no problems. VZW M8 here also
[One (M8) Android Development] Div033:
Interesting. I'll have to see if fusion player corrects the issue. I've already reverted back but I'll try it again in the near future and see what happens.
[One (M8) Android Development] Wired4Fun:
Does not work on verizon m8!!

OP, please consider updating your thread title, as well as the instructions for Verizon.

This method positively does NOT work on my Verizon M8, with S-OFF, using the Viper ROM. I spent considerable time flashing each zip file, and modifying the xml file, only to be end up with an unusable phone upon reboot. I received a message that says:

Unauthorized device

This app is not compatible with your phone.

OK.

Upon pressing OK, it simply shows this same message again, and renders the rest of my phone completely unavailable to me. I couldn't even take a screen shot to share it with you.

Please advise if you need any more info.

I seem to be having an issue updating thru OTA which MAY have been caused by this tweak.

I haven't done any other mods to other than this one.

According to the update, the file audio.primary.msm8974.so has unexpected contents. Has anyone else encountered the issue?

I'm running unlocked, s-off'ed on an HTC__622 and stock 1.54.708.5
[One (M8) Android Development] SmiLey497:
Your system needs to be 100% stock when you do an OTA. That should be common knowledge.
[One (M8) Android Development] mrlakadaddy:
you need to have stock recovery...
[One (M8) Android Development] MacGB:
Everything is stock. This HK tweak was the only one I did. I tried flashing the disable HK and stock adsp zip thru custom recovery then flashed back to stock recovery.

Still had issues with OTA, and it fails at an audio related file.
[One (M8) Android Development] -Apollo-:
I think something got messed up with your Default.xml. Do you have an original copy? I got that same error last week when I made an edit to my Default.xml using Root Explorer. Something didn't write correctly I guess and thank God Root Explorer made a backup of the original. I had to go into recovery and delete Default.xml and use the Default.xml.bak, renaming of course to Default.xml. Once I did this my phone was able to boot up and all is good now.

---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 AM ----------

That disable HK version isn't done very well as it still leaves a few files residing in system/lib.

Try deleting these 3 files in system/lib

libharmancorehtc.so

libHHS_ARM.so

libSD_ARM.so

Not sure, but those might be part of the problem. Also, if you have the original files like audio.primary.msm8974.so try using those.
[One (M8) Android Development] RossMacgill:
Once i ran the disable zip, (and installed stock recovery) i had no problem with OTA at all :)
[One (M8) Android Development] MacGB:
Which zip file(s) did you run?

But the quality is amazing. Just use a decent player (PowerAmp or Neutron - I prefer Neutron due to ability to really play with the settings)

Set up the sound as you like for both speakers and headphones and save to presets.

Play - this phone kills it. You don't need the HK stuff - you can do it all with the right player
