[Android Software Development] The Wrath of Kahn:
A quick search for "Android P" didn't reveal anything specific to dev preview 2, so thought I'd mention that (on a Pixel 2XL) Sauron causes volume to be set to max at all times and seems to be more distorted than stock. It might have something to do with the fact that media volume is adjusted by default now in DP2 but I'm not sure. If there's any logs I can provide to assist, I'd be happy to help.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Well, you are the only one who finally written anything specific about P. Are we taliking about headphines, or speaker? I need some information before we start digging logs.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Nope, stuff i'm collecting is for next major updates and i don't have any time, or chance for a leap atm. As for checking - it has been discussed here numerous times - graphs taken by pc sound card is the best way to represent changes.
[Android Software Development] The Wrath of Kahn:
Speaker, to be precise. I haven't tried headphones, but the experience so far has been that anything played is at max volume and cannot be adjusted whatsoever. It did seem to work normally in dev preview 1, so I'm guessing they've changed something fundamental. I used an app called "Precise Volume" in the past to force media volume adjustment by default, however in DP2 that's built-in now and disabling it had no effect.

Edit: I also ran the audio compatibility mod but enabling or disabling it had no impact either.

Anybody can give 22.03 and 24.03 versions?
[Android Software Development] bick:
Yesterday I had to re-install everything on my HTC10 (messing with a different ROM!). Discovered this mod gave no sound at all on HTC10 Stock Oreo.

After everything was up and running with Purefusion AOSP Oreo with SuperSU, I listened for awhile (using Grado headphones and Onkyo HF Player and hi-res FLACS).

The HTC10 sounds pretty good anyway, but then I installed Ainur, latest version (02.05) as previous tests proved this to be the best for me.

Well absolutely amazing. Sound staging massively improved especially bass, this stands out instead of being mixed in the entire music. Trebles, clean and crisp.

I can't see (hear) any reason for extra mods like V4A.

Well done dev team, can't believe how I've missed this mod in the past, a real audiophile delight!
[Android Software Development] Tautvydas:
[MENTION=6366997]UltraM8[/MENTION] Could you upload version prior to 02.05 ? Tried to flash 02.05 without prop files and still getting bootloop on essential ph-1.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
I need bootup adb logs in this case. UO is unset right?
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Pack me /firmware folders (both from /system and /vendor)
[Android Software Development] Tautvydas:
Sorry, but just reflashed and set up the phone. When I'll have more time, I'll get the logs.
[Android Software Development] PYCON:
NO, AS I KNOW NO WAY.

I've tried to flash it several times in different phones but there's no app, no consolle with settings or other and I cannot find differences before / after. That's the reason that pushed me to return to old Dolby Atmos that has an app to control the settings.

Hey i just want to say thanks for Simple configurable (for me) and awesome audio mod im on MM snapdragon 810 so.. User options all except IMPEDANCE are working fine with Arkamis and Dirac hw combo it make

[Android Software Development] Revontheus:
Hello [MENTION=6366997]UltraM8[/MENTION]! If I already have Arise installed on Oreo (S9), would It be safe to flash this over that? (Since this patches audio_effects.conf)

Thanks!

EDIT: It does, idk if its placebo but everything sounds better
[Android Software Development] marstonpear:
Thank you so much guys, this is great! I have a Huawei P8 Lite 2017 and on EMUI 8 I couldn't install v4a whatsoever, but this mod is a lifesaver. Thank you all so much again!

Hello friends. Does anyone have any good settings on Ainur useroption? to get the best sound on android phone

Wysłane z mojego MI 6 przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Android Software Development] jonny30bass:
Hello, I have been trying to look for the best sound for my device. I have a Galaxy J7 Perx and Audio Technica ATH-M50X headphones. I'm not sure what I should install. I'm using Magisk, so I've just been trying different combinations of modules. Right now I am using SAURON MK II.II, Dolby Atmos (LeMax 2), V4A, and Dirac Hexagon. Is Dirac necessary? Also, am I supposed to install both the software and hardware Dirac effect? Also, does SAURON automatically detect the best user options upon first install?
[Android Software Development] Vladuu:
Am also very interested in this!
[Android Software Development] kyzn:
Used Ainur with my old 6P. Definitely prefer it over the other audio mods. I keep it clean with just Ainur and Dirac mod.
[Android Software Development] LazerL0rd:
Use Audacity and a line in cable mate.

---------- Post added at 05:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 AM ----------

Use Audacity and a line in cable. Relatively minor changes skills be seen (as you don't want the song to actually be different lol). However, these "minor" changes do contribute quite nicely to the sound.

---------- Post added at 05:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:32 AM ----------

Personally I think Dirac isn't great on the 6P. It's better for low end speakers such as the Nexus 5X for example to improve it. However Ainur (it's actually called Sauron btw) should work great. PS - there's a few surprises I added in for the Nexii which give some pretty clear audio ;).

[Android Software Development] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
[MENTION=6366997]UltraM8[/MENTION] on my 10 with PAP and kronos v3 sound is very good, clean, good bass and sounds overall really nice. always listening to spotify just sometimes to my local music. going to get the next days some 24 bit flac files if i will find some in web :D but the 10 already had good audio in stock, so it's difficult to improve it even more, but for now kronos sounds good

speakers seems to be a little bit better now too. what has been exactly changed in kronos v3?

[Android Software Development] Mike Grace:
What is PAP?
[Android Software Development] uudruid74:
I personally think Dirac is useless. I also think Atmos is a joke. It's just a dynamic EQ and I can hear it adjusting, sort of a breathing type if vibe. I turn it off and go "Ahhh ... that's better!" Total listening fatigue. Viper is OK depending on what you to with it and your needs. James DSP is also really good.

Both Viper and JamesDSP can use the same convolved IR files. That'd where your real fun begins as you can plug in an unlimited range of sounds. I use the Joe Meeks compressor alot.
[Android Software Development] stylz3:
Do you have ir and profile files you can share?
[Android Software Development] mehrshad.shafaghi:
Guys. Can you please check and see if I've edited the useroptions file correctly? I can't feel any difference although I have a Snapdragon 650 device
[Android Software Development] Krystalmyth:
Just came in here to say, I tried this on a whim. Having been using Viper for years and spending more time fiddling than listening half the time. I thought this would have been too simple an app. I didn't expect the powerhouse this truly was.

Really, the satisfaction this app brings to my sound. With such minimum effort... Everything is gradual and smooth in its transition. Nothing is too harsh, and somehow even Convolvers I've known for years sound better here, with the option to modify them further or even use some I've never been able to get working.

The bass tool is effective enough to be dangerous. The equalizer is smooth and though not as dynamic as atmos, clowns on Vipers, and is more honest than Atmos. Nothing sounds fake or cold with this app... And the stereo widening, dear God, this is the best surround/spacial effect I've ever had on a phone.

I have an Axon 7 and on Super, the sounds coming out of my phone sound like they're being projected literally around my head at certain angles. It actually blows my mind. I lay on the floor with a friend with the phone in my hands facing down toward us, and we heard a song with guitars and a lot of live acoustics and it was like aural VR. We'd look around because suddenly sounds would literally play like they were somewhere else in the room. I could feel my earlobes vibrate when they sung, and they stayed centered. It was marvelous, I cannot get this anywhere else. I've tried so many. This is insane to be getting this kind of audio from phone speakers... And the headphones. ??

The only thing I miss from Viper is its clarity tool. There's nothing like it here. There's nothing to help with audio sharpness or clarity outside of the eq, but like the bass boost, Itd be nice to have a universal enhancement I don't have to do extreme eqs to fix. Convolvees help here too but I don't have much control over those. I'm too dumb to make em myself so I just have to sit on one I like that gets close.

Anyway I guess I just wanted to say great work. And thanks. Its nice not having to think about whether or not I'm getting the best sound in a given moment, and know I am because this app is so down to earth and visible. There's no tricks. Not so much tweaks as selections. It leaves most of the thinking left to what we want to listen to and not how. And I thank you for that. This rocks. Nice icon too, purple always gets +1 from me. :3 thx again.

[Android Software Development] Andrea17982:
Can I install it on my Oneplus 5t? No twrp, no root, no mod at all. Just stock recovery. I don't want to lose my warranty as I'm going to sell it, but I would like to try the mod... No hope for me?
[Android Software Development] ederekun:
Stock recovery will not be allowing you to flash it, though opening bootloader and flashing custom recovery will not void warranty (search google). Also if you will resell it you could reflash the stock recovery and relock the bootloader and it will look like nothing happened :)

Edit: however if you don't know what you're gonna do you should keep it like that since you may inflict damage to the hardware if you've done something wrong which will NOT be covered by the warranty and also VOID it, so know the risks :)
[Android Software Development] Andrea17982:

Is this the he reason why all audiomods do not work with Bluetooth on my LG G6 using fulmics (stock ROM)? They work on line in headset. I'm searching for the reason for a long time already..

Got many errors on a2dp with Bluetooth.
[Android Software Development] ederekun:
It may work without root (with twrp and unlocked bootloader) but you will need init.d support ???
[Android Software Development] bick:
The OP states this:

* Parameters forcing for DACs is achieved with mixer additions, thus either framework or service apps can reset some values back to stock. Sorry, but it seems like device manufacturers doesn't want us to mess with these things. There is a solution, but unfortunately, it won't happen till probably next major version.

I use the 'Onkyo HF Player' which supports 24bit DACs (paid version).

I'm not sure it really uses the internal 24bit DACs of my HTC10, but it does support USB DACs when they are plugged in.

I suppose the only way o find out if the internal DAC is working is to try both internal and external and hear if they are the same.

I feel and hear that it is using the internal DACs.

As for changing the user options, I've never tried it as I'm perfectly happy with the results of just an install.

BTW, I reported the answer you got earlier! It was very rude.

I am asking because first time I installed Sauron than tried to install Viper4Android but it did not worked (driver installation fail).

Than I deleted Sauron, installed Viper (it worked this time) and reinstalled Sauron. - Viper still works.
