Actually my problem with bluetooth headphones is that the music skips. It's annoying.

DONE| :highfive:
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:
I don't get any skipping. I guess if the device is running to many apps or a bad music app it could happen. A good app and good headphones go a long way.

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DesertEagleSlim:
Does it skip or just go silent for a second every so often? I found mine doing that and found its from the firmware searching for WiFi. When driving or walking while listening thru Bluetooth I turn wifi off. It fixed the issue.

Hello all

If I want a nice full sounding stereo effect that's a little louder than stock but won't damage anything with high impedance headphones on an H910 which file should I go for? I have a Huawei Mate 9 which sounds awesome and would love my V20 to sound similar.

Also would it be possible to know how the differ from each other? Some are self explanatory, but some are not.

Thank you :D

Hello. I'm wanting the More pronounced stereo sound file but unfortunately the link is no longer working, does anyone have a link to a new place please?

Amazing work btw the other file are very good but the front speaker just isn't loud enough for me. Also I want to know how you guys could even listen to it max volume, I can barely put it to half with my Sennheiser momentum's without it being just too loud.

Thanks Ben

HI I'm new to the V20. Is this audio apk still good for the newer roms?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Divyas:
Hello,

I had a mess around with multiple of the profiles today but had issues with all of them.

The stereo ones are too quiet for many frequencies on the ear speaker so songs that rely on L and R mixing for guitars sounds really quiet at times. The personal mixer was best for equal loudness, basically balanced but was heavily distorted.

I tried the bottom speaker only profile but for some reason the sound balance is off. It acts like its still doing stereo mode but the ear speaker is disabled.

Is there a profile which is like default (or just louder) for the bottom speaker but with the high impedence fix for headphones?

My phone is a H990DS

Many thanks.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:
It is not an apk but a configuration file. Should work on all roms.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] KUSOsan:
Have you tried personal mixer 2? I like it better than the personal mixer 1. This one is still stereo but it's louder out of the bottom speaker so you don't hear the top one distorting at high volumes
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Divyas:
I gave it a go. It definitely removes the distortion but certain frequencies just dont output enough volume ln the ear speaker. I have a feeling my ear speaker is just weaker than average. Thanks anyway.

Still find it weird that the Bottom only profile treats music like its still using a stereo profile, cuts out certain parts of tracks. Might compare my default profile with the bottom only profile when I get back home to see what's going on there.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vlad48:
[MENTION=1877667]rootlinux[/MENTION] firstly many thanks for the mods - using PersonalMix2 set for long time...

Now on one of my V20's I got the famous distortion on the bottom speaker caused by faulty codec chip so is there any kind of preset which can lower the volume of the bottom speaker while keeping highest possible on the top one?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] KUSOsan:
I would say obviously try switching back to stock profile and see if it's a software issue or hardware issue before doing anything else. Not sure if you've tried yet but I would definitely take off the bottom chin of the phone and inspect the speaker area and grill. I just did that on mine after coming across an article about it and there was a layer of gunk across the whole bottom speaker. After cleaning it out good and getting rid of the weird "membrane" that they put on the inside of the speaker grille, my V20 now sounds much louder and slightly boomier.

Check out the article here: https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...eaker-sound-with-simple-hardware-mod-0176333/

It's extremely easy to take if off. It's only 4 screws. The top speaker on mine didn't sound that great either which is why I like the personal mix 2 better. The 1st one is loud but it doesn't mix well since the quality of the 2 speakers varies quite drastically

Also maybe try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.javeo.android.neutralizer

And see it helps the quality at all. It can get rid of certain frequencies that the speakers have a hard time performing.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:
I can make you one. Have to switch devices to test it.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:

Test this out.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vlad48:
Many thanks [MENTION=1877667]rootlinux[/MENTION]! Tested it and it is nearly perfect (needed to add some additional tweaks via V4A) - maybe it should be 15% less loud on Top and 10% more loud on bottom speaker.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Divyas:
I removed the grill on the first day I had this phone :p It definitely did make the sound from the bottom speaker sound more 'open'.

I just can't seem to get the stereo effect to sound balanced. e.g. A guitar solo where two guitars are mixed to the L and R channel seperately is the most obvious. Right channel sounds fine then it switches to the left and its almost like a whisper in comparison.

I'm going to mess around with the bottom only profile to see whats causing it to sound different to the default profile.

edit:

Did a quick comparison and I think I found out why the bottom speaker only profile is mixing like both speakers were enabled.

So default profile looks like this at line 2044

Whereas the bottom only profile looks like this at line 2044:

From what I can interpret the bottom only speaker is outputting to two channels still with a balance of 70/40 whereas the default profile is only outputting to one channel which is supposed to be the case when it's bottom speaker only. [MENTION=1877667]rootlinux[/MENTION] would you be able to help me work this one out? I want the default speaker settings but the high impedance. Cheers.

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vlad48:
Again, really appreciate your work, but this version is not working well - now bottom speaker can be heard only and no top speaker at all.

I have added some low pass filters to your previous mod it it is nearly perfect now - just missing bottom and some distortion and hiss in mids which I'm trying to eliminate with V4A.

<path name="speaker">

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:
I thought you wanted default with High Impedance turned on only?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vlad48:
I really do not want to turn this thread into a chat, but I think we are very close to nail down and eliminate the dreaded distortion problem of LG V20 caused by fault in CODEC chip (which actually stops processing PCM audio sent to the speakers in this device) and described here.

So, in brief when you have spare time just please add +10 to bottom speaker and reduce 10 from the top speaker in the attached xml file from my previous post (should be RX7 and RX8 volume lines, but I really have no clue or docs pointing me the right line)

Many thanks again and I think after that you can post this separate profile for all the folks suffering from this issue.

Thanks for all the efforts, but both presets are enabling somehow bottom speaker which brings distortion and hiss. Can you share the exact xml line which controls bottom speaker volume - i will try to reduce it apply additional EQ presets and share the final result here?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] will5:
Hi guys. Im trying to make the speaker volume a little lower than stock (bottom speaker, the one you use for music, etc). In the minimum, is too high for me.

Anyone knows what should I edit to achieve this?

Thanks.

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] lowridincrew,:
For some reason this doesn't want to work with my phone. Anytime I replace my files and set permissions it doesn't work at all. It doesn't kick in to high impedance mode it just stays normal. Not as loud as it used to be before I upgraded my software. I'm using H918S
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] KUSOsan:
If I'm not mistaken I believe it won't actually say high impedance but it will still be active. When you are listening to music do you notice a difference when activating the HiFi button on and off?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hadi99:
I used the stereo loud max 2 mod with high impedence and everything is working flawlessly, except that music occasionally stops playing from the headphones, and I have to replug the headphones to get sound. Is there any fix?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] lowridincrew,:
Nope no difference between sound
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] will5:
Any help guys? I want to lower bottom speaker volume.

I mean doing the lowest stock volume a little more low.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hadi99:
I know how to replicate the issue. Simply listen to 24 bit audio (with HiFi on)and then listen to an mp3, the audio will be muted.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vlad48:
Trying to achieve the same for 10 days already...

Until now can only decrease volume of Top speaker (which is assigned to left)

and no chance even to mute the lower speaker (right one) one via the xml...
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] will5:
Hi, I think if volume can be set higher, it shoud be possible to set it lower.

Im using stock mixer paths., really dont know which modded one try, cause I dont want to blow any speaker. And I dont need more volume than stock. Only will be nice using the stereo effect.

Lowering lowest volume on bottom speaker would be great for me. I do some night gaming and lowest volume setting/level is too high.

On my note 4 I changed some speaker out from 83 to 75 and did the trick, but here there are a lot more of speaker lines and not sure which one to edit. Tried a few without luck
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vlad48:
O.K. short tutorial - look at sections of your xml starting with:

PATH NAME="SPEAKER

(should have 3 in your file - speaker-fluid, speaker-mono and speaker)

Than try to decrease the 2 digit value highlighted in red:

ctl name="RX8 Digital Volume" value="60"

RX8 should be right speaker volume and RX7 is left...

Sadly for me only RX7 is working and audio volume decreases for the Left channel (top speaker) when using all other other RX switches nothing happens...
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] will5:
Hi. Thanks. Probably other line have to be edited to lower bottom speaker?

Too bad there is no description for all the mods. Im not looking for boost or high impedance.

Just lower bottom speaker volume and turn on top speaker to create a little stereo effect. Nothing more.

Will try what you said and see how it goes.

My stock mixer has only this:

<path name="speaker-fluid">

<ctl name="SLIM RX0 MUX" value="AIF_MIX1_PB" />

<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />

<ctl name="RX INT7_1 MIX1 INP0" value="RX0" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft COMP Switch" value="1" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft BOOST Switch" value="1" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft VISENSE Switch" value="1" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft SWR DAC_Port Switch" value="1" />

</path>

<path name="speaker-mono">

<ctl name="SLIM RX0 MUX" value="AIF_MIX1_PB" />

<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />

<ctl name="RX INT7_1 MIX1 INP0" value="RX0" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft COMP Switch" value="1" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft BOOST Switch" value="1" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft VISENSE Switch" value="1" />

<ctl name="SpkrLeft SWR DAC_Port Switch" value="1" />

</path>

<path name="speaker">

<path name="speaker-mono" />

<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Format" value="S24_LE" />

<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="84" />

</path>

I think I tried to lower this value <ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="84" /> with no luck some time ago.

Anyone using this mod on AOSP that found a camera that has good quality sound especially volume when playing back videos? So far the best I found is footej camera. It's the only one I can find that has any sound recorded at all but it's super low.

Edit: update [MENTION=1877667]rootlinux[/MENTION] I've been in touch with the Footej developer. He showed me a feature to increase the DBs for video sound. It helped but could use a little extra DBs. He said in order to raise it even further they're looking at the algorithms. He's very helpful. I recommend this app free or paid for those that love your mods but they want it on AOSP and want their videos to work with sounds too.

I figured it out. The file permissions weren't being applied because the file was on my sd card.

Using root explorer to replace the file in the etc folder and then changing the permissions to 0644, then rebooting solved the issue!

I have the tmobile version (H918) with Weta rom v5.07 and I installed the bottom file in the op. It worked and I was able to hear the top speaker outputting sound...but I had an issue with the display where the bottom left portion of the backlight went out. On a white screen the bottom left was visibly darker, even in twrp and during boot screens. I reverted a nandroid backup I had made prior to the install, and after about 30 - 60 min i discovered that the display had returned to its normal state...no sign of the backlight issue at all. I have no clue what could have caused this. I have seen reports online of v20 display backlights having issues, but nothing like this. Just posting to help anyone that had this issue.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:
Glad you like it. ?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rootlinux:
This is a sound mod only and has no screen code at all.

Maybe a sign your hardware is having problems.

I do plan on making a second display mod but it will be a modified apk only. Again the mixer XML has nothing to do with the screen.

If your screen does that again, I would have it checked out.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Pengu4566:
I understand and I don't mean to say that your xml has any screen related code. I will indeed keep an eye on my screen to see if it happens again. The only explanation I can think of is that the phones DAC may be under the affected display portion. Maybe a thermal situation? This hasn't happened to me before and it occurred after modding the device with the xml you provided. It's just something to think about but thanks for the advice.
