They have an EQ app but its VERY crappy bro, but most ppl were kinda happy about that app. Mayne adding EQ to ya app would make some ppl happy;) Mel-dawg
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
YAY!

hey, whaddaya know, now there is an EQ app in the Louder Volume Hack app by Meltus!

Thanks a bunch! I'll fiddle with it over the next few days and let you know what my thoughts are.

One other suggestion, could you add a feature that deposits one penny in the users bank account every minute, that'd be great.;)
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
There is? +_+

...that's news to me lol.
[G1 Android Development] q26000:
Thanks for the audiohack. It makes a great improvement for my g1.

I have an idea about the microphone sensitivity.

As I also working at a noisy environment. Others guys also said

my voice is different to hear since the background noise is very loud.

Therefore, I want to reduce the mic sensitivity. Is it possilible?

If yes, is it just reduce the following setting in the audiopara3.csv?

Thanks a lot

A8	CE_REC_INT_MIC

A9	CE_REC_EXT_MIC

A16	PHONE_HEADSET_IMIC

A17	CE_PLAYBACK_RESET

A18	CE_REC_HEADSET_IMIC

A19	CE_PLAYBACK_HEADSET_IMIC

F23	CE_REC_INC_MIC

F24	CE_REC_EXT_MIC

F13,PHONE_EARCUPLE_VOL1,1,4000,[4000],0,4000,197A,FFFF

In audiopara4.csv, is it only change the second 4000? it seem my setting is little bit different to u as I don't have (A24).

I change the [4000] to 1000 but do not get so much different. Am I correct?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Correct, the 2nd 4000 controls mic sensitivity. Experiment with different values and see which works best for you.

And don't worry about the A24, i think my files are from the sapphire or something, they will differ slightly :)

LVHv3.0

hey Meltus .. the new version looks awesome .. one thing .. the BUSYBOX responds as FAILED on enom's TheOfficial .. what is the test of busybox and why would it be failing? busybox works and i believe the location is:

/system/bin/busybox

if that helps anything on your end
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Yeah, on most 2.1 ROMs the busybox has changed location so the test doesn't pick it up.

Should be fixed in the next update :)
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
That icon is pimp Meltus. The interface is quite the upgrade as well. I actually didn't even know there was an update. I actually saw a review of it somewhere and didn't even realize it was the same app.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
haha cheers man! :D

The layout looked a little cluttered with all the buttons so i thought the drop-down menu's would make it look cleaner and more simple to use!

It's not finished yet though, got some other things to re-do, i kinda rushed it a bit ><

edit: which review? i'd quite like to read it lol :D
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
yes... I discovered shortly after posting that I am an idiot. Well, there IS a fancy eq graphic, so I guess we're half way there. Consider my praise an advance. I would've owned up to my idiocy earlier but my main machine went down and I've been swamped ever since.
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Of course I can't find the link again and had already cleared my history. I'll keep an eye out for it again and let you know.

hey i cant get the new 3.0 market version working on MLIGN 3.3 hero rom

any one has it working ? or its not compatible yet
[G1 Android Development] BlueBoar:
Strange problem.

Not really sure what’s going on but I am having an issue with the new 3.0 version. It doesn’t seem to make any changes on my phone. I have tried it with CM 4.2.13 and xRom Éclair 1.1.. Both of these have been fresh installs and the Audio hack was one of the first things I installed. Each time I noticed no change what so ever.

I then reinstalled 2.2.3 and it worked fine, nice and loud. My preference is v2r2 then I apply v6r2 + Headset Boost.

I am currently on a G1 with CM 4.2.13

Any help or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

BB
[G1 Android Development] MeatyCoins:
same here, link to the previous version ?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
That app most likely need 1.6+ Rom to show in Market so its a no go for 1.5 hero.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
No, it should work fine on hero ROMs.

And there is a slight bug, i say slight, in the latest version which causes the files not to respond.

Try pushing my files manually first, that should sort the app out.
[G1 Android Development] :
Not a huge fan of the new market audio hack ui (sorry :( but your work does rock!), have you the old one floating about anywhere I can download please?
[G1 Android Development] gospeed.racer:
Gotta say I am not a big fan of the updated market version layout either. Both are a bit confusing though, it should be streamlined more. After pushing the audio hack you then have options to adjust bt and headset...but then there is no exit button or instruction as to what to do next. Just seems a bit unfinished, especially the newest version- the last one looked much more professional.
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
I'd buy it.

Call me crazy, but I think it would be cool to have an app that actually translates the column values into sliders (or something thick & GUI), creates a custom file, pushes it, restarts media, and voila, slow but totally graphic EQ. Maybe, eventually, tabs for each output, headset, BT, InCall? Maybe in 2011 save the old file as something else and keeps it for later? I tend to "pie-in-the-sky" so....

One thing I noticed is after I pushed my fisrt InCall boost, it was as if the mic was picking me up twice. There was an impossible echo .5 sec after I spoke. I pushed a backup and haven't checked anything since, but it's likely I will, since other people are still complaining about echo, but I don't know if that's the phone or the service.

Speaking of InCall, in loud situations, shouldn't the mic and the earpiece volume be inverse? I mean, when I'm out on my helipad and my copter is starting and I have to shout over it, shouldn't the mic volume go down while the earpiece volume goes up? I dunno, my guess is that the Android developers didn't see this coming. I'm thinking these need to be entirely independent of each other. In quiet situations, I'd want both volumes to go up. Hm. Something to ponder.

The reason I'm posting is that I can't seem to get to any current file customization instructions. All the Meltus (with the exception of the cold medicines) links have been dead-ends for weeks+. I'm not complaining. Goddess knows Android development right now is tons of work with little payoff. What I'm looking to do is create a speaker-oriented file that's something between V2r2 and V3r2, that takes the top edge off V3. I'd reather not mokey around with each value if it's already been done. So if there's something there, I'd love it if someone would point me, (like my mom used to, just grab the back of my neck and point my face where I need to go.... Hey, just like Google does now....)

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] slick chick:
does this program help with the ear piece volume?...I have motorola milestone and I can barely hear the other person talking on the other end. Will this program help my phone? If not does anyone know of any other programs/apps to help me out?

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Motorola milestone? No, it wont work and as far as i'm aware, there has been no volume hacks for that phone yet.

It is unfinished as it's still very much in beta. The last layout was preferred by quite a few people, but it was totally unfeasible to use that layout with this version as it has many more files (such as all the combined files) and it would just look ridiculous with all those buttons cluttering up the screen.

I tried to keep it as simple as possible; You pick your version, then you pick your extensions, and that's it. Sorry about the lack of an exit button, that will hopefully be in the next version. The graphics will also be improved soon, i kinda rushed them a little bit lol ><

Yeah, what's your e-mail? I'll have to check my logs and such but i can e-mail you the old .apk if you want?

Also sorry for not being very active recently, i needed to take a break from all this crap (crap meaning boring java development and answering stupid e-mails all day long lol) so i wont be starting work on my app properly untill sunday. I'm also trying to get my website back up and running, which means learning HTML and Dreamweaver from scratch, but i'm getting there!

If anyone's interested, the new link for my website is http://androidaudiohacks.com :D

It is no way near finished (in fact, it's hardly started. What's up atm is just a 'placeholder') but it should be up and running again soon!
[G1 Android Development] e2zippo:
I can't believe i missed this little tweak!

I dismissed it because of the name, i had no idea audio quality could be improved, been looking for that for that since i bought the hero since stock audio quality if flat and distorted!

If i want the best possible quality (don't really care about the volume since it's never been to low for me i suppose i should use

"V2 revision 2

Completely distortion-less! The most popular version due to it's loud volume and good sound quality. Now being used pre-built into many custom ROMs."

am i right, would that improve the bass and and lessen the distortion in on my Hero?

Since i've never used ADB (really need to learn that) i was aiming for method 2 but where and how do i "sign" the custom rom once i've put the new files in there?

Thanks!

Meltus

Hey meltus i emailed you yesterday letting you know the App in the AM wasn't working on my G1.It works when i push the files only until my phone reboots and it also says BusyBox failed on the compatibility test. (It worked fine up until V2.2.1 and hasn't worked since.)

Any solution yet or anyone reading this with a solution?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
V2r2 will increase the sound quality (well, it does for the G1, i can't comment about the Hero i'm afraid) and it will also increase the volume a fair bit.

It won't, however, increase the bass frequencies. The G1 speaker is so bad, i felt there was no need, but i'm not sure about the mytouch.

There is one of my really old threads floating around on here which is basically a walkthrough of how to edit the Audiofilter.csv and mess around with the frequency settings, if you fancy having a go. :)
[G1 Android Development] e2zippo:
I might just do that :)

I've been playing around with your app since yesterday now and i can't say that audio quality has improved for me, bummer!

But i have another problem now, i played around with the extentions as well and now my GF complains that it sounds like i'm whispering. I tried the "in call loud" but that only distorded the sound like hell. I pushed the backup and i hope that restores the mic sensitivity as well?

/Martin
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Yeah, pushing the backup will restore everything to how it was :)

If you find my 'In-call Mod' thread, there are instructions on how to edit the file. You can edit the mic-sensitivity to your liking then!

I'll be making some more files when i get all the other stuff done :P
[G1 Android Development] kieranc:
all the links to androidclubhouse.com seem to be dead, i can't get a copy of the new version. i installed an older version and it's ****ed things up, initially my mic stopped working so i restored the stock settings which made the mic work again but it's very quiet apparently. i thin uninstalled audiohack and rebooted but the phone stopped before the splash screen and i had to remove the battery to get it to boot.

I don't wanna come on here *****ing that an old version broke stuff but unless you make the new version reliably accessible (and maybe you could make it clearer what all the millions of versions are, maybe remove links to old broken versions) there's gonna be problems.

so. where can i download the latest version from?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
my website hasn't been hosted on androidclubhouse for a very long time and it is now http://androidaudiohacks.com. It isn't finished and none of the files are hosted there yet (they are all in the first post of this thread) but everything is explained on there.

Also, what do you mean by the new version? the new version of my app? That is easily accessible via the Android Market for £2.00 or by paypal if you prefer :)
[G1 Android Development] kieranc:
the top 4 links in your post, faq etc all still point there. the 5th link works and goes to the lite 1.2 version which is what I used and what caused me trouble.

the 'push backup' doesn't seem to work, says not available. I've pushed the 'stock' settings back but the mic is still quiet. i'll try the adb push method, which versions have close to stock mic levels?

it seems i meant the paid for one, i hadn't seen that, it's rather tucked away at the end of your post. i had searched on the market but clearly not for the right thing. Says £1.50 in your post too, inflation huh? maybe if i'd found it to buy when i was excited about it I might have but now I'd just rather get my phone working again...
[G1 Android Development] mackster248:
I have the app and when the compatibility test comes up all were OK except for the AUDIOFILTER. Thus the app wont work. How can I fix this?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
yeah, i haven't got around to updating everything. Sorry about that.

I take it that's in the 'lite' version? It has limited functionality so most of it won't work. Also it's about 6 months out of date so the things that do work will be pretty unstable.

It's not exactly hidden. Search 'Meltus' or 'Louder Volume Hack' on the market and you'll find it easily enough. Also, yes. I put the price up by a massive 50p!! It's pretty irritating when google take 45p+ off EACH transaction, and that's before taxes. I don't have a job at the moment so as my only form of income i couldn't afford to keep the price as it was.

Although my app is on the market, i don't see why you just don't follow the methods in the first post and do everything for free?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Push the files manually once and then the app will start working again. There's a small bug in my app atm which causes the files not to push properly.

Should have a fix out tomorrow some time. :)
[G1 Android Development] davil124:
thanks for the quick response today over the e-mail Meltus.
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
Long time no talk to mel dawg. Just today I went back to a 1.6 rom and tried to 3.1 update...a no go. Even after rebooting a no go. So I just restored a backup I had and HOLY SNAP...its louder than ever. I thought it was a v6 push but its the v2r2 files W/HS+BT.

Is there a difference tween using 1.6 and 2.1 or am I going crazy
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
My apps a bit screwed atm, working hard on an update but this crap just doesn't want to work lol ><

I don't think there would be a difference. Unless, the audiopara was boosted too, as v2r2 only usually uses the Audiofilter.
[G1 Android Development] mailman1387:
Im hoping you find a solution fast cause i can't use your app cause its not working and i hate the default volume. I have faith in you man
[G1 Android Development] blackknightavalon:
The bug means that the new version doesn't work with Xrom, but 2.2.1 still works!
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
yeah, the old versions will still work, but i can't build an old version with all the headset/in-call boosts because they wouldn't work. It's kind of catch 22 tbh :(

For those of you who don't know, i have a quick fix available on my website - http://androidaudiohacks.com - (Basically just push the files manually first, and that should fix my app)
[G1 Android Development] gospeed.racer:
Hmm, I received the market update to 3.2 and with the new KiNgxKxlicK AOSP 2.1 rom it doesnt seem to "take". Fresh wipe on the 2.1 rom, installed from market, allowed always root access, and pushed the v2 files as usual. Tried with and without other boosts,it just doesn't do anything...no errors but also no boost in volume of any sort

Also, the exit button just takes it back a screen...doesn't actually exit. No big deal, just odd behavior

Is it possible to get the older version (the one right before this release) to test and make sure it isnt just the rom? I wish we could just roll back:) Got a few programs that I would roll back if given the chance!
[G1 Android Development] gospeed.racer:
OOPS! Went to uninstall (was going to try a re-install) and found yet another update...3.2.2 seems to fix my issue. Working great again:)
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Just wanted to report in that LV v3.2 is having some sort of issue pushing the files, because it seems to do nothing to the audio levels. reverting back to latest v2 for the time being, as that worked great

EDIT: followed your instructions, pushed files manually (or used v2.2.2 to push files, more precisely), and now 3.2 works fine. Thanks for the tip! Great work as always. The combinations are ENDLESS now, anything to suit your needs
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
For everyone who was having problems with V3.2.2 the update 3.3 should fix all your problems.

If v3.2.2 worked fine for you, don't bother updating, there's nothing new and the drop-down menus have gone :(
[G1 Android Development] :
Just updated again and still not working, had to do it manully. Last version that worked for me properly was v2.2! Not sure why but meh. I'm back off to 2.2 until this is sorted. Thanks for your continue hard work and actually prefer the new UI ;)
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
I am running SuperD1.7 and the app worked fine for me at 3.0 and 3.1. I thought maybe it was just placebo effect but I know normal volume does not make things sound distorted when turned all the way up. Its odd that only some people are having issues and others are not. If it matters I always push v2r2 and HT+BT boost. I have been pushing that since version 2.2.2 and havent noticed anything different with 3.0 or 3.1 besides the new UI so I think I will hold off on updating.
[G1 Android Development] :
Well on Super D 1.9.2 and have been on them forever.

Now v3.3 - Epic fail!

Just this second installed 2.2.3 and Boom! Volume increased.

So that rules out the rom being the problem.
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
Not necessarily. Can you confirm that v3 doesnt work for you on SuperD1.7. Its possible that if I decided to upgrade to SuperD1.9.2 I might run into the same problem that you did.
[G1 Android Development] :
What didn't you get? It can't be the rom if one version of an app works but another does not, its HAS to be the application.

The only version to ever work for me from Super D 1.5 is v2.2.3 and has never failed me no matter the rom version or rom (tested 2.5.1 for enom when released) so I know for a FACT it can't be due to the roms.

I'm wondering if it is an issue between G1's and MT3G's as I know my touch suffers on the SuperD roms but G1's don't?!
[G1 Android Development] gospeed.racer:
Using the market version 3.3 currently, I am having odd issues where it "looses" its boost. I try to push it again and it is loud again for a while. If I continue to push it over and over and over, it will come and go at random. (I can tell right away because I have my phone set to click when I tap a button).

I tried to use bluetooth boost but it doesnt send audio to the bluetooth for some odd reason. It shows as connected, and I can use the volume controls on it, and the call/hang up button, but the sound itself is coming from the main speaker. I had to just revert everything back to stock as I couldn't miss the call I was on. I have never, ever had bluetooth boost sound like it was working on any rom, on any version of the program.

The last version that worked reliably for me was way back when the program first came to market. I change roms like I change underwear but right now I am back on 1.6 to try to eliminate any rom issues.
[G1 Android Development] JRudnik:
I'm running SuperD 1.9.2, and the application does not work!

I've tried every combination, and the AudioHack v3.0 3.3 does not work.

The v3.0 3.2 didn't either.

I'll try your outdated 2.something, hopefully it will do the trick.

Running on a G1. Why doesn't it work??
[G1 Android Development] :
Okay been playing with 3.3 and can get it to work as follows...

You NEED to have media playing then open up the app and push whatever version (for me its v2r2) and it will kill the media, then if you try and play music it says file type not supported so tried start media in terminal emulator and no joy so rebooted and it worked. Gonna try to reboot again and fingers crossed it sticks.

If not there is always v2.2.3 to fall back on. Still reckon this is an issue with the g1 only, be interesting to see if those that work are on mt3g or g1 cause so far it seems to be g1's.

Edit: Okay done a few reboots and its all good. So works with the above work around bit long winded but it does work. Hope it helps some of you out.

This is great. I want to share my particular reason for wanting this mod.

I play my phone in my car stereo through and FM transmitter and the phone is not quite lowed enough without turning the stereo up so loud that the static also gets loud. SO hopefully the phone is now louder than the static and can drown it out better.
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
when trying to push the files I get an error that they dont exist, when they are on my desktop and I got all the caps/spaces right

Edit: I moved the files to a diff directory and it worked

I had done the previous script successfully, but decided to update the SPL. I ended up wiping and trying it again, but when I type "lucid update" I get this..

$ su
# lucid update
mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
mkdir /system/sd/lost+found
mkdir failed for /system/sd/lost+found, Read-only file system
EXT2 Not Mounted

So then I tried to redo the the previous script, but I get an error when I try to connect to files.lucidrem.us/jf/etc

What did I do wrong?
[G1 Android Development] pershoot:
according to your commands (from mount onward), your remounting your /system with read only permissions. remount with rw permissions:

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

then you will be able to create directories inside /system

i am not privvy to lucid's script so I do not know what lucid update is invoking/executing.
[G1 Android Development] skiptomylou11:
That's what the actual script said, all I wrote was...

$ su
# lucid update
[G1 Android Development] caleoss:
i tried this on officail us 1.5 update, and when i tried to reinstall it saiys E:no signature (414 files) i used the auto signer from other thread....what now??
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
i might need to move some of the script around .. at the moment it checks for the EXT2 partition and won't run without it (saves people from screwing their phones when the card doesn't mount right)

so i'll need to modify the script to allow certain commands to run without the EXT2 partition being there .. i'll get that fixed .. for now you could mount the system writable and create a folder as "/system/sd/lost+found" and that will allow you to run it
[G1 Android Development] skiptomylou11:
Oh I see. I don't have my SD card partitioned.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
it's all set .. i rearranged the parameters to allow for the absence of the EXT2 partition being mounted on /system/sd
