​

This modification is made to give the best possible audio experience on Sony Xperia Devices.

Unique features

ALSA custom sound control, crosscompiled with Qualcomm Compiler

updated opus, vorbis and flac codecs

stripped audio effects, for reduced audio processing (and better sound performance)

32bit / 96.0khz (Xperia 1iii / 1ii / 1 / 5 iii / 5 ii / 5)

24bit / 96.0khz (all other devices)

everything is logged, you can check what this modification is doing ( /system/usr/share/alsa/debug )

execute with a terminal as root:

check ( audioflinger dump )

test.sh ( place a wave audio file on your internal storage, name it test.wav, then execute the script, this will play your file direct via aplay )

you can also use aplay, arecord, alsactl, amixer alsaucm directly,

if you are familiar with it

( if you mess something up -

its your own fault

, but you can ask for help anyway )

custom Dolby Atmos configuration

audio output power is greatly improved, so be careful with the volume
