[Android Software Development] jcmm11:
As near as we can tell Telchar forged it in the 4th or 5th century of the First Age. It was broken in the year 3441 of the Second Age. It would eventually be reforged as Andúril just before the Fellowship leaves Rivendell.

You say Telchor, I say Telchar, let's call the whole thing off. :D

If you mean using the earpiece speaker for audio, I wouldn't do that. People did that on the OPO, stereo, and a few people blew out the earpiece speaker.

Even if the other speaker was capable of the full volume of the main speaker (it's not), the best you could hope for was a 3dB volume gain. It's not worth it.

If you want very LOUD and CRAPPY sound, get a Bluetooth speaker. This mod is for making it sound better, not worse

[Android Software Development] Akti88:
Can someone please answer simple things for me, I'm having trouble understanding what this mod does even after reading through OP and some of the latest thread pages.

1 - Does this mod have a GUI or an easy way to toggle its effects? From what I've read, Im guessing no? It sounds like you have to choose what effects you want to flash, and if you don't like it, you need to re-flash new effects or completely remove them? Basically these are permanent audio configs that cannot be disabled/enabled without re-flashing stuff?

2 - I am /system rooted with SuperSU and I also have Viper4Android installed (2.5.05 FX + 2.5.0.4 driver). What exactly is SAURON going to do for me in terms of "sound quality" enhancement? I've spent a long time finding the best V4A settings for me so I'm iffy about anything that will cause a lot of conflicts etc.
[Android Software Development] DanGLES3:
Unlike viper sauron is not an equalizer its suposed to enhance your sound by tapping into the full natural potential of your device and unlike viper effects which are cpu based and use battery,sauron enhancements are hardware accelareted by your device's sound processor meaning that its enhacements are more natural and use less battery than viper's (altough both can be used together no problem),also sauron settings are more for advanced users as the default settings are usually good enough for most users ,also sauron doesn't have many 'effects' as it just enhances your sound by making your phone produce the best sound it can produce without software based effects like viper,the effects that ainur have are all hardware accelerated like shoebox or audiosphere
[Android Software Development] Akti88:
Great, thanks for your detailed response - I'm going to flash it now and report back after some detailed testing with and without viper turned on. Will be using 1more triple driver IEMs on 16/44kHz internal DAC soooo lets see what this baby does :)
[Android Software Development] DanGLES3:
I found viper+sauron to give me the best sound even on my cheap headphones
[Android Software Development] Akti88:
Okay! Well I don't know if I notice a big difference in quality upgrade, but flashing it certainly didn't break anything or cause any sound distortion or anything like that, which is mainly what I was worried about. Maybe my sound is a _little_ "clearer" when Viper is disabled? I probably should've done some (before) testing and spectrum analysis stuff etc before flashing, but meh. I'm sure it did something and my ears are probably just cloggy.

Just 1 small problem, audio seems to pause/skip when my screen is off now - and I have my gov set to interface + performance mode, soooo will need to see what thats all about.

Update: I fixed it, it was my mistake. I started playing a file in Poweramp and THEN disabled SELinux + enabled V4A, instead of disabling SELinux + enabling V4A + playing a file. My fault. Sounds great!

Hi, sorry for my English, only speak Spanish.

A problem with some old Samsung pones:

Galaxy 5, G900F, LOS15.1 oficial, only AINUR SAURON [MK II.I]26.02.zip, work, with MK II II and III, bootlock.

Galaxy s4 and S4 LTEA, I9505 and I9506, LOS15.1 unofficial, only with AINUR SAURON [MK II.I]26.02.zip work, some that S5.

Another devices, like Moto X, LG G5 work correctly with all versión of Sauron, and LOS 15.1 unofficial.

All pones work well with al versión of Sauron in LOS14.1.

Some problem with the MK II.II and III with old Samsung devices.

Can somebody confirm this?

Any fix?

Thanks.
[Android Software Development] loco-cork:
No interface or equalizer to tweak to your liking?
[Android Software Development] DanGLES3:
Its not an equalizer,there's nothing to tweak as it doesn't add any special effects to your sound,it just naturally pushes the best sound your device can produce naturally by tweaking things like mixer and device drivers
[Android Software Development] loco-cork:
Ok. Thanks for explanation.

Will have to still use V4A or some other way of tweaking ... because the system equalizer in OxygenOS works only for wired headphones.

Looks like it was last updated about a month ago, maybe less. It's pretty popular with Sauron users, so I'd imagine it gets updated as Sauron does. But don't quote me. :D
[Android Software Development] SD008:
Hey, I'd really appreciate it if someone here could please help me with something. I've recently bought an Asus Zenphone Max Pro M1 which has a Snapdragon 636 SoC and was advertised to also have a 3rd party amp (NXT smart amp).

Now the thing is, Asus has, for some strange reason, purposely worsened the output of the 3.5mm jack of this phone. Audio quality when using Firefox or using Poweramp beta with the hi-res output is quite decent and seems to have a very linear frequency response. But when using almost every other app, there're some alterations done to the audio causing a very distinct bass roll-off, harsh treble peaks and an overly tinny and compressed sound. Also the volume is much lower compared to the sound from Firefox/PowerAmp.

I have already tried the Sauron mod (mk ii from OP), thinking it might fix it, but the aforementioned issue still persisted. I've tried 7 different ROMs and a few of them boosted the volume, but none corrected the non-linear sound signature.

Now I've seen in the past that the sound from Firefox doesn't change with audio mods (V4a, for example, has no effect on it). So it seems to me that Asus has used a some software or kernel level modifications or used the Qualcomm libs/mixer path file in some way as to reduce the audio quality.

Can somebody help me in trying to revert these changes so that the freq. response is closer to what I hear in Firefox? Is that even possible? Any help would be much appreciated. I still have a day or two before the return window closes.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
First - amp you mention is for speakers, not for lineout. Second - web audio playback uses webrtc audio processing algorithms if I'm not mistaken, which has it's own spl/agc/compressor & limiter, so I wouldn't rely on that.
[Android Software Development] SD008:
Thanks for replying, my bad for not realizing that the amp was for the phone's speaker (although Asus's advertising didn't help).

Anyway, I've been able to use your mod to fix this problem, and I can't thank you enough for it. The 1st time I tried Sauron it didn't work because of some incompatibility with the ROM I was using. Going back to stock ROM and flashing it has done wonders for the sound. Again, thanks.
[Android Software Development] james3460297:

Hi there, congratulations for your amazing work! I've just installed the latest version and it works very well, my unique problem is that I don't have Busybox anymore: I use Magisk and, following instructions, I disabled Magisk Busybox module, then installed Ainur Sauron module, thinking Busybox was bundled, but apparently it's not there anymore (the app I use to verify Busybox presence says I don't have it, as well as apps which need Busybox to work). How is it possible? Do I have to enable again the Magisk Busybox module? Sorry if the answer is already elsewhere, I had a look but couldn't find it. Thanks in advance!

[Android Software Development] juanantofb:
Hello to all the developers of the mod.

I am blind, and there are many blind people who use Android who also have this mod.

I have had problems with some old Samsung devices.

This problem has been solved making a full wipe, reinstalling the rom and the GAPPS and instead of using SuperSU I have used Magisk.

Now there is no problem with Samsung devices.

Now comes my request:

With the vein of MKIII, all the TTS, the synthetic voices sound with a very low volume, therefore the screen reader, sounds very low.

Let's see if you can look and solve the problem.

It only happens with the beta MK III, with the previous versions does not happen.

Please solve this problem, blind we enjoy this great mod, to see if they can solve the problem.

Thank you.

1. Does it supports dual stereo speakers like that in Lenovo k4 note? I can clearly hear uneven sound in upper and lower speaker. (though the overall sound is great)

2. I also want to know that do you think that stereo surround feature like in poweramp degrade the quality like resampling do coz that surround feature greatly enhances my dual stereo speakers capability and earphones also sound better.

Also, which output setting out of OpenSL ES, Audiotrack java output with float32 option and hires for devices with DAC is best to use with Ainur?

3. Does the "Vibe X3" support means Lenovo k4 note which is also known as "Vibe X3 lite" is also supported?

If not, I beg you to look into it as its a great budget phone with a WM8281 DAC surprisingly. The dual stereo speakers are extremely amazing but they do need proper driver to sound at their maximum potential.

Haven't had much time to mess with with it considering the recovery hoops needed for the device, but I'm getting bootloops on newest MK.III build, and the last couple MK.II builds. Tried with both Magisk 17.1 and 16.7.

Device is Essential PH-1, stock Oreo 8.1 ROM (July 2018 patch level)

Reverting to 18.04.2018 build of MK.II resolves the issue (anything newer fails in same way)

The device boots up normally up to the wallpaper with the "Android is Starting" progress bar in the middle and locks up within a second, hangs for about 10 seconds, then reboots.

I have captured a logcat of the boot with Mk.III running on Magisk 16.7 with all other modules except the recovery Magisk Manager disabled.
