Wow I'm loving all these new sound mods it's brought new life to my hox the nee pon3 had given more volume or at least it feels that way and with elements and exbeats with v4a my headphones just sound awesome along with quake bass all I have to say is wow
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
Where is this pon 3?
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
In android software development section
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
Got it and it's compatible with eb? Gonna try this on my flo
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Yes just delete pon3 control panel if you use v4a
[Android Software Development] MetalOllie:
How is it possible to use Pon and another mod which has Beats and Dolby settings? And then use Viper on top of all that.. Won't they all conflict with each other? Wouldn't it be better to use just one mod with Viper (such as Pon or the new Fidelty mod)?
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
In using 4 mods plus v4a I have no issues and the sound quality is awesome not seeing any battery drain either try it you can always restore if you have issues just make a backup
[Android Software Development] masri1987:
should dsp manager ever be removed?
[Android Software Development] MetalOllie:
I can't see a link to download the Studio Master HD file?
[Android Software Development] jmxc23:
It is in my post with the attached zip file with 392 irs files.
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Elements Of Fidelity Audio Engine (EXPERIMENTAL R3) released. :)

WARNING: I HAVEN'T TEST THIS MOD (R3) ON MY DEVICE YET. SO, FLASH IT AT YOUR OWN RISK :p

NOTE: This version might be a bit heavier. Some system-sensitive libs are added

Changelog is on op

Test and report. Feedbacks are welcome :D
[Android Software Development] jmxc23:
Everything is working fine with the new mod. I am about to do another review.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
What's the control panel for I haven't flashed yet but I wondered
[Android Software Development] leo.riv:
After flashing R3 "Unfortunately, Dolby has stop." massage show & Every time open viper ask instal driver please help me.....................
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
It's a DSP. You can delete it if you don't want :)
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Thank you Can it be used with v4a or does it conflict
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Replace /system/lib/libeffects.so with your system default
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I haven't test it. But it should work
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
I will try it more options more oomph I hope I'll let you know the outcome
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
So I've tested R3 on my phone and found no issues. If you guys found any problems, report here :D
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Ok so I flashed r3 but I don't see any control panel anywhere confused should I have mounted system before flashing

---------- Post added at 09:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 AM ----------

With r3 I seem to have lost some volume and clarity it does sound nice just not as loud

---------- Post added at 09:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 AM ----------

Checked in system apps and private apps there's no vivo control panel and even my handset doesn't sound as loud
[Android Software Development] leo.riv:
Now I have 2 issue

1) Unfortunately, Dolby has stopped.

2) Unfortunately, SoundAliv has stopped.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
The bass is great the highs seem to be lacking I haven't changed my settings
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Yup. I've tested it too. Volume and clarity is lower. I'm 100% sure it's because I removed some configs. I'll be back with new and better configuration files :D

Oh yeah. Seems like there's a problem. I'm fixing it :)
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I'll try to increase the highs :)
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
That might be your ROM's problem or there's a certificate issue
[Android Software Development] leo.riv:
I am using SLT-Nexus-TSUNAMI (Micromax A116) Custom Rom
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Added XHR XtremeClarity+ IRS. High clarity audio :)
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
What's the bass like

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 AM ----------

Also sorry to be a pain but I can't find vivo control panel anywhere
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Frequencies below 50Hz are boosted for bass rumble effect

As for the Vivo control panel, I think I've mistaken it. It's just a service app. However, GS5 SoundAlive control panel works normally :)
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
But I can't see that anywhere either
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
SoundAlive is an equalizer :)

I'm still using V4A though
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
It's not in my app draw

---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

But it does show in sound music effects im just curious where it is
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Yeah it's in music effects panel. It does not have a launcher in app drawer
[Android Software Development] dinaps86:
Any body not being able to stream gplay music
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
I'll stock to v4a thanks anyway that was bugging me
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
What do you mean? Google Play Music streaming problem?
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Added XHR CrystalSonic IRS. This IRS might produce some audio artifacts (mostly on vocals) in my experience and testing
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Seems like EOF Audio Engine R2 is better than R3. In that case, I'll release R4 soon, of course with more tweaks and fixes :)
[Android Software Development] kaotikdragon:
I have the dolby has stopped problem too even on r2. What do you mean by this?
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Dolby FC problem is another problem. The app will not work on some roms. I don't really know how to fix that as I don't have that problem. Sorry :(
[Android Software Development] kaotikdragon:
Well it stops when I delete ds.apk from system apps.
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Deleting that will disable Dolby Digital Plus. But, as it force closes, then that's the only way I guess :(
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
R4 added. Changelog on OP :D

Please note that I haven't test it yet. This mod is no 10MB, which means it's a heavy sound mod. Flash it at your own risk :p
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Much much better thank you

Stuck in booting After Flashing Elements of Fidelity Audio Engine R2 & R4

First, thank you for awesome IRS and your audio mod. Loving it.

Using Waves MaxxBass + Waves RBass(Headphones) + V4A = Best sound yet from my Note2.

I had tried the Fidelity Audio Engine R1(flashed no problem) and I think it improved the sound but not sure. 2 files were left out from the flash. So, I had flashed R2 and R4. Both releases gets stuck after optimizing all of the apps and wouldn't go to the launcher screen. I had waited up to 10 minutes. Took battery out and wiped caches and fixed permissions and same result.

Can anyone help?

My device info:

T889(T-Mobile)

DN3 from ATT(4.4.2 - DN3_v5_N7105); Clean install

TWRP 2.7.20(T-Mobile)

AGNI Kernel v4.2.1_R3

4.3 MK7 Bootloader

Deleted all other audio mods/apks except V4A

Hey, [MENTION=5014976]jmxc23[/MENTION] you have the widest range in musical taste.
[Android Software Development] jmxc23:
That's due to my upbringing. I haven't tested the files with reggae or jazz.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
I despise jazz with a vengeance but reggae sounds awesome with quake bass
[Android Software Development] stueycaster:
Check out Spyro Gyra. They're my favorite Jazz band. I don't think I've ever heard tighter musicians.

I've got a wide range of musical tastes too. I like certain songs of Country, Classic Rock, Jazz, Folk, Soul, Blues, New Age, Celtic, Classical and especially Guitar Instrumentals. Tommy Emmanuel is so good he blows my mind.

When I was young I was always very open minded about different types of music. But then I heard my first Rap song. My mind slammed shut immediately. I hate that crap. And these days I consider Heavy Metal to be revolting. I've checked out videos of Yngwie Malmsteen and man is he fast. I just can't get to where I enjoy him though.

But I find a lot of stuff to enjoy on Pandora. And I have over 1,200 songs stashed in my phone.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Each to their own but I could never get my head round jazz it's too messy the only artist I ever liked was jamarequi if that's how you spell it lol
[Android Software Development] jmxc23:
They're not necessarily jazz. These days artists don't fall in a particular genre.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
I'm also a big fan of country music and r&b and classic rock zztop dire straits marilion elo Fleetwood Mac ect and I also absolutely love 80's power Ballard's I'm not a one trick pony lol Phil Collins and genasis are also brilliant I also really like Joe cocker MSF dogs and English men is a great album I love blues
[Android Software Development] roulley:
Hey, the soundalive keeps force closing :)
[Android Software Development] roblou56:
+1
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I'll check out the problem
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Can you provide a logcat? :)
[Android Software Development] roulley:
The fc is gone when i delete it and copy it again, but I dont know if the soindalive is activated or not
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
It's a Music Effects app
[Android Software Development] 3n3rg1c:
I flashed Fidelity audio engine R4 on top PA 4.4.4 final on my nexus 4. now I am unable any audio from earpiece. I am unable to hear a single sound from while calling.
[Android Software Development] 3n3rg1c:
any one??
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I haven't tested it on ParanoidAndroid. I'll try to make the mod lighter with less damage chances :)

Sorry for late reply...

If you can, please provide a logcat so I can fix the problems easier :)
[Android Software Development] 3n3rg1c:
I have same issue with other aosp roms.
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Hmmm... I think it's because some core audio libs of the mod aren't compatible with newer Android version. I'll release the new version ASAP after I figured out the problem :)
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
I'm on 4.4.4 aosp and no issues here sound is awesome with r4
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
That's cool then :)

I'll provide a lite version of R4 to reduce issues for some people. Standard version development will still be ongoing :)
[Android Software Development] TotallyAnxious:
Would it be possible to make an updated version of R1? R4 works but it causes clipping/buzzing. R1 is the only one that worked perfectly. I was able to get R2 to work but when I disabled lpa.decode it would do a soft reboot whenever I tried to access the tiles on my quick settings. The s3 has had a bunch of problems when it comes to lpa stuff. So maybe a mod that didn't need lpa.decode to be disabled would work for phones that have trouble with it. Sorry if I'm not making sense. Just woke up, but I wanted to get the idea out there. Lol
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Ok... It's on the way :)
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Elements Of Fidelity Audio Engine R4 Lite added. Removed most sensitive files while still producing audio 85% like the Standard version :)

LPA, MPQ, and Tunnel build.prop lines removed

For people who had problems with R4 Standard, try this one

On OP's attachment :D

Remember to backup before flashing as I cannot guarantee any success
[Android Software Development] leo.riv:

[Android Software Development] TotallyAnxious:
Works great. The clipping is gone! Thanks!
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Added Headphone Clarity IRS
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Awesome! Thanks for the report! :D
[Android Software Development] leo.riv:
R4 Lite & Headphone Clarity IRS simply awesome. Thanks Man

Except SoundAliv. When headphone connect "Unfortunately, SoundAliv has stopped." massage show. Now I delete SoundAlive
[Android Software Development] AE74:
Hope this helps.

Thank you.
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
SoundAlive won't work in some ROMs :(
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I'm going to rest. I'll try to fix the problem tomorrow :)
[Android Software Development] rimsilva:
Yeap, same with me (i'm running 4.4.2.LG stock ROM), I've disable SoundAlive and Dolby for now.

I was not sure what to do with Pon-3 Mod, so after flashing your MOD i've unnistall Noozxoide and pon-3.

EDIT: Ups.. no voice calls sound, I will try later with lite version.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Did you by any chance try lowering the db in v4a that would have stopped the clipping

---------- Post added at 04:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

Your headphones are probably not powerful enough mine sound sessions with r4 best sound I've ever had on my devise
[Android Software Development] DNA_Uncut:
EOF Mod has issues with most of the non stock roms , so please take time to fix it and come up with an universal version.

thanks

Headphone Clarity Review

For this review I will test for audio clarity and overall listening experience.

Songs used in this review :

1. Paradise by Coldplay.

2. Wish You Were Here by The Sounds.

3. Silk Pillows by Childish Gambino featuring Beck.

4. High For This by The Weeknd.

5. Touch Me, Tease Me by Case featuring Foxy Brown.

Song 1:

I was thoroughly impressed by the the clarity of the irs file. With this song every single instrument can be heard clearly. Vocals are crystal clear. The bass response is neutral with this song.

Song 2:

A perfect song to test the clarity since only one or two instruments are present. You can hear the sadness in the singer's voice with this irs file. The acoustic guitar is sounds so beautiful with this file.

Song 3:

The song sounds great with this file. The bass response is neutral so whatever bass is there isn't exaggerated. Again the irs delivers on clarity.

Song 4:

The irs file made this song even more enjoyable. The clarity is spot on. The bass response is also spot on.

Song 5:

See songs 1-4.

Conclusion :

This irs file does what its name suggests. You get a clear sound with an accurate bass response. The listening experience was amazing while not dynamic.
[Android Software Development] MetalOllie:
After installing Elements in CM11 there's a problem with SystemUi. When I pull down from the top of the screen it's fine unless I then select the button for quick settings. Then the display goes to a full screen, knocking out the status bar and the soft keys, before going to the lock screen. I've reflashed the rom with just Pon3 and it's fine, it's only when I try and add EOF into the system. Any ideas why it would cause it, or how to stop it.

I'd really like to use the mod, as the audio quality is stunning.

Now I'm only running Pon3 but the Viper side of things shows "processing = no". Any idea as to what could be causing that.. It was working fine before I reflashed the rom, so it plays ok with CM11 as far as I can tell.
[Android Software Development] jmxc23:
XHR Xtreme Studio Review

This file is similar in sound to Headphone Clarity.

Songs used in this review :

1. Trouble by Natalia Kills.

2. Drunk Love by Snow Tha Product.

3. Big Beast by Killer Mike, T. I. and Bun B

4. So Cold by Drowning Pool.

5. Passing Me By by The Pharcyde.

Song 1.

This song sounds good with the file. Clear and lively sound. Bass response is accurate.

Song 2.

This song brings out the best out of the irs file. Bass has a nice thump to it. Vocals are very clear. The irs file provides a lively club like feeling to the song.

Song 3:

See song 2.

Song 4:

This song sounds amazing with this file. The vocals are powerful and clear. Accurate bass response for this rock song.

Song 5:

Bass response is accurate with no added rumble. Very clear vocals with no harshness. Overall this file makes the song sound more lively.

Conclusion :

This is a irs file that provides a very lively listening experience. With the right setup you can get the most out of your music.
[Android Software Development] dinaps86:
Hey ik u r resting but i extracted your mod last night and literally wrote every file down and in its proper folders do u think if I just added the files one by one it might work better ? And than maybe I can report which one f.c or stopped sound etc etc

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

N if ur roms give no sound or f.c etc etc just reflash ur roms guys that's it no data wipe
[Android Software Development] TotallyAnxious:
The clipping would happen regardless of the settings in V4A.

The clipping would also happen on the phone speaker. It was connected to disabling lpa.decode. But I found a fix for everything that works.
[Android Software Development] sushobith:
By replacing some files from your mod,can i get the improvement in the audio ?????

[MENTION=5160317]Vinardo_ZzZ 2000[/MENTION]

i dont know why the mod is not working in my Xperia L...

I think some libs and apps(ds.apk) were making my phone to bootloop,

First i tried to replace libs from your mod system/soundfx to my phone --- eveything is working fine..

secondly i replaced some libs(excluding Samsung, preproces, parameters) --- everything is fine.

thirdly i replaced some files from etc folder(excluding samsung and all that stuff) --- fine, but i have a question...

Question: By replacing some files from your mod, can i get the improvement in the audio ?????
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
I would have said that enabling lpa decode is just a case of editing your build prop but glad you managed to fix things
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Some specific files are not fully required for the mod to run properly. Have you tried the R4 lite version? 85% same audio as the standard versoon but extremely reduced bootloop chances :)
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
You can try it. And please if you can, report in the thread if you found anything :) thanks!
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Have you tried the lite version?
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I'll check the problem. Have you tried the lite version?
[Android Software Development] TotallyAnxious:
I had the same problem. But find another way to get into your settings and toggle the quick pulldown option for the status bar to on. Once you access your tiles once with the quick pulldown and click the button to switch to the notification drawer you should be able to use it normally.
[Android Software Development] DNA_Uncut:
Lite version working perfectly (except sound alive), thank you very much :) for your hard work.
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
Glad it's working fine. Yeah, SoundAlive only works on some ROMs. And, you're welcome :)
[Android Software Development] sushobith:
Lite version is not working..

Lite version is also not working... Here is the logcat... check if you can find the issue
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I'll check it on my free time :)
[Android Software Development] sushobith:
List of necessary files for the mod to work

In previous post you said that not all files are necessary, please send me the list of necessary files. So that i will check and report back..
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
[MENTION=354265]vina[/MENTION]rdoZzZ do you think it would be possible for you to make a sound mod to amplify my internal speaker by any chance I would really appreciate it of it is possible when I listen to music through my phone speaker outside I can nearly hear it even with the steps we've already taken to address the issue thank you
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I mostly forgot about the files. I tried by trying one by one. What I remembered not too useful are: libacdbloader.so, libacdbmapper.so, libaudioutils.so, and ALSA files
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
I'll try but I can't guarantee it will work :(
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Thank you I'll back up before flashing so it's not a problem it's just my speaker is pants as we say in England lol
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
So, I've made some research for speaker volume hacks. Seems like it requires a device with Snapdragon chipsets or with built-in ALSA PCM card configurations. First thing is, you own a Tegra device right? So, let's see if you have ALSA config in your ROM. Can you check if your device has: /system/usr/share/alsa (directory) or /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml without mods? :confused:
[Android Software Development] StinkyToilet:
So. I checked the logcat and these are the problems:

I/ServiceManager( 842): Waiting for service media.player...

I/ServiceManager( 842): Waiting for service media.audio_policy...

I/ServiceManager( 842): Waiting for service media.player...

I/ServiceManager( 842): Waiting for service media.audio_policy...

I/ServiceManager( 842): Waiting for service media.player...

W/AudioSystem( 842): AudioPolicyService not published, waiting...

I/ServiceManager( 842): Waiting for service media.audio_flinger...

Try to remove these files from the mod and flash:

libaudioeffect_jni.so

libaudioeq.so

libaudioparameter.so

libaudioparams.so
