Was that a good aye or a bad one? If it was bad then, I know it works on hero and cyanogen, and that's all i really care about. If it was good, then glad I finally got it right
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
It was a good aye :D

as in a 'yes' aye!!
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Ok good because there's "aye, that's right" and "aye, aye, aye mamma mia" aye's. Never could tell the difference
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
haha fair enough :p

ear speaker stopped working

sorry guys, but any help would be awesome.

ive searched around, but this may be tough..

i was switching between roms one day, making nandroid backups of different roms [cyan, sensehero, and eclair 2.0] and between all of that, i ended up on sensehero for a few days.

the reason i switched around, is that on all of my cyan builds, my actual speaker for my ear on my phone, was a lil more quite, as well as the speaker on the back. i switched around roms just to see the sound difference. huge difference from cyan. so i go back to cyan, see that all my stuff [that i know now is on ext backup] wasn't there, so i did a full wipe of my phone, then just flashed cyan 4.2.7.1, and installed soundhack like normal, and everything was fine.

a day later..

all of a sudden , when i use my phone, its regular volume for the first second of the call, then dropped to a really really really low volume, and nothing adjusts it. after reseting my phone, now that speaker doesn't work whatsoever.

sorry for the long explanation, just trying to be thorough with details.

any tips on this?

gimme somewhere to start, ill look up the rest.
[G1 Android Development] g1lol:
Hi...I had similar problem. Till last week I never had any problem with my sound system (I have CM latest ROM since CM introduced). But last week I tried with Sound Hack Free version. Then my phone started weird things.

Sound use to go off suddenly and Phone use to reboot suddenly. Then I formatted my phone and reinstalled CM ROM without any Sound Hack. Now it is fine no issues at all. Some where i have read in forums that...Cyanogen mentioned not to use Sound hack on him ROM I think (I might be wrong, Correct me if I am). So just see......!!!
[G1 Android Development] docsparks:
*pardon me for this swaying from the Audiohack subject*

I clean wiped everything using amons1.5.1 and then installed the OTA, then cyan mod, without audiohack, and i still have no sound at all from the speaker.

Im gonna consider it dead. any other advice would be awesome.

---------

is there something i could of done, to have disabled the sound from working from the earpiece at all times?

no files i can push or mess with to try to get it to sputter?

thanks.
[G1 Android Development] g1lol:
Do you have Nandroid backup with proper working??

IF Yes, you could try restoring it and then update what ever you want.

I keep nandroid backup at each update.
[G1 Android Development] docsparks:
I have backed up all my nandroids on my pc, just an fyi.

anyways, yes ive tried them all. after more search ive come to

the conclusion that the speaker came loose in some way, for some

god awful reason i dont have an T0 screwdriver, and havent been

able to take the back off and fix it. Its just a crappy lil speaker

that just makes its contact just by being in its place.. if it moves

it loses contact. simple enough. check for corrosion, etc.

ill update this when i attempt to fix it.

otherwise it's got a home lined up.

V6r2 not working with 4.2.8

Using the Audio Hack v2.2.1

I tried pushing the V6r2 and the sound is as loud as stock.

I tried V1r2 and even that one is a bit louder than V6r2.

V2 and V3r2 both work fine.

I pushed V3r2, killed the media server and my phone was nice and loud.

Next I pushed V6r2 and the audio volume went way down.

I tried reboot and it stayed the same.

AudioPara4.csv isn't pushing through.

Everytime I try to push AudioPara4.csv and reboot and browse the file using Astro, it looks like it's an empty file (it show AudioPara4.csv while the others do not show their ext. and the size is 0 with the date all funny.) I've tried to busybox cp it and adb push, but nothing works! I even tried to remove the AudioPara4_sapphire.csv and AudioPara4_trout.csv files and nothing!
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
AudioPara4

what ROM are you using? what is the result of:

# ls -l /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv
[G1 Android Development] el_cabron:
I'm using TheOfficial's AOSP 2.3.3 and that command gives me "lrswrswrsw root root 2009-12-18 19:29 AudioPara4.csv -> /system/etc/AudioPara4_trout.csv

(By the way, the #lucid command does not work for some reaso, like it is not even there.)
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
AudioMod

that line signifies that there is a symlink connection to AudioPara4_trout.csv .. so instead of pushing to AudioPara4.csv try pushingto AudioPara4_trout.csv

# lucid -au v2

should work
[G1 Android Development] el_cabron:
I pushed it to AudioPara4_trout.csv and it seems to work, now. The speaker is a little louder :)

...but...

# lucid does not work and pushing other versions is going to be a pain on the go :(
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Lucid Script

if the "-u" is not working then use the app from the Market .. enom should be pushing my latest script release in the next version .. if you have v1.60.71 then everything should work .. post any error messages on the thread for my script

I can't get this to work via metamorph. Do I need to install something in addition to the metamorph file? I am on 4.2.9.1. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Why would it?

No offence, but where does it say it is compatible with metamorph?

This isn't exactly a theme :P

Un-modified atm, but a nice new 'edited' version should be coming soon :)

How is the quality?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Not a noticeable difference tbh, I need more time to test. :)

[TESTERS NEEDED]

Could some kind soul with a BlueTooth headset please contact me?

I believe i may (finally) made a bluetooth volume hack, but i cannot test it ><

I only need 2 things testing: Handsfree and general audio.

Thanks in advance ;)

[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
I use bluetooth every day in my car, I will gladly test this for you but the file is "currently temporarily unavailable".
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
how odd, let me reupload it.

edit: here you go - http://www.mediafire.com/?nwxjxvnqmdf
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
ok, refresh my memory, push this where?

I will head out in about 20 minutes and test both A2DP and handsfree, first without, then with the new file and let you know the differences.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
system/etc

don't forget to back-up :p
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
Working well!

Audio is significantly louder overall via A2DP, levels over headset seemed louder as well (though admittedly its a bit harder to discern over a mono headset). The party on the other end of the call said I sounded fine, voice was clear.

I haven't been watching progress on this closely since I purchased your hack, did the headset boost not work for BT audio on the last version? I could've sworn it did.

Anything else you need just PM me.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Excellent!! thank you for your help :D

The BT was very dodgy on my last versions; some reported success and some didn't (although, i believe that it could have been a placebo effect).

At least i know what i edited was right!

Thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
I was reading the instructions for pushing the bluetooth hack VIA terminal and i was lost...lol. Id love to test this out as well since im on my bluetooth CONSTANTLY...maybe about 19 hours of the day...smh.

Love some help on how to push this and id love to help do more testing

Is this what im gonna type? Not to sound like a noob but ive never used the #busybox command. And will i put the .csv file into the audiobackup folder on my SD?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
haha, i'll do my best :P

ok.

download the zip and extract the AudioPara4.csv to the root of your sdcard and then create an empty folder called AUDIOBACKUP (or whatever you want). This is where the backup will go that we will make shortly.

Then, open up the Terminal Emulator on your phone and type...

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

to set the system as read/write then

mv system/etc/audiopara4.csv sdcard/AUDIOBACKUP

Now you should have a backup of your current files.

Then...

mv sdcard/AudioPara4.csv system/etc

then

killall mediaserver

and you should be good to go :D

edit: Oh, you may need to add 'busybox' (without the quotes) to the beginning of each command if you are doing it via ADB. i think anyway. I can't remember :p
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
Thx you VERY much my good sir. Im going to test soon as my backup is done. And im doing this VIA terminal BTW.

My ppl at work wonder why my G1 is so damn loud...lol. Told them throw the P.O.S. iPhone away and cross over to the dark side..lol.
[G1 Android Development] BrutalHoe:
hey not fair i had to pay a dollar for that meltus lol
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
you paid for a bluetooth hack i made like an hour ago? lol :D
[G1 Android Development] BrutalHoe:
lol i thought its an .apk hahahhahaha dont use BT so that ok lolz
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
haha, nah i'm not giving that out!

the people who paid for it would kill me lol :D
[G1 Android Development] BrutalHoe:
yeah exactly cuz i was about to take a trip to UK fro my dollar lmao hahaha keep up the good work meltus still in love with ur app. thou iw as thinking how about a little widget? just to display which mode u running n when u click on it will open up the app to change it, jsut a thought
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
I think we have a WINNER...even tho its a Mono BT but i can hear a significant difference. I tested it out with voicemail 1st then an actual live call. Very clear and the person I was talking to heard me with no problems. I will do more testing outside in a bit but kudos nonetheless. Hope you add this to the market download soon...You tha man cuz
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Yeah i was thinking of 'expanding' into the widget territory, or at least have a notification icon so that you can quick change rather than opening up the app, if you get me.

haha cheers!

also, wayyyyy ahead of ya ;)
[G1 Android Development] BrutalHoe:
lol yeah kinda like SetCPU app has a widget
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
yeah somethin like that. it's a shame i suck at java lol.

I think it's time to find some widget tutorials!
[G1 Android Development] youngstacks74:
does this work for the cliq?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
I very much doubt it. But who knows, try it and let me know!

also...

UPDATE:

V2.2.2 of my app is fully complete and working. Should be released tomorrow!

[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
This is an ESSENTIAL app for android. That's why I donated. Strictly out of respect. Great to hear the progress you are making, even though I don't use BT. Never thought to ask though, can you "down push" without issues? Like right now i'm using v3. If I want to go back to v2, do i just push those again and it's all good right?
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
Dependin on my situtation...I switch all the time

:EDIT:

MY other test came out to be better than i hoped for. While on the phone with my g/f...i started talking in a low tone of voice and she heard me with no problems and even asked did i buy a new bluetooth cause she never heard me this clear
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Cool, just thought about that and wanted to double check. Thanks for the help.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Yeah, you can switch between all the versions without problems. :)

And that's great news! I still have some more testing to do with it but i think i can get it sounding better. I'm gonna go out and buy a bluetooth headset next week. Anyone know a good one?
[G1 Android Development] Charrion:
I've been happy with my Plantronics Voyager 520. But if you're looking for bluetooth headphones, I've got nothing. I don't use my phone much for music.
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
Depends on how much money you wanna spend to be honest. I use a motorola 30$ headset but want and Jawbone[80-100$]

I dont have any info for stereo headsets
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
sounds good. i'll have a look around!

I only really want them for listening to music, i don't make that many calls. :p
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
lucky you, mine is permanently glued to my ear:rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] illusive817:
i currently downloaded G7 V2 , but i want the bluetooth increase , how can i apply both?

do i just allow the file in the BT zip to overwrite the G7 V2 AudioPara4.csv?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
yup, it's as easy as that :)

unfortunately, you can't have both the Headset boost and the BT boost but i'll be releasing a combined file soon.
[G1 Android Development] illusive817:
Thanks , i only use BT soo for now that works for me

Thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] Xygod:
I really want to support this but it won't authorize my purchase because it's in another currency. Any suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:

[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
You can pay via paypal if you want!

[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
UPDATE

Headset + Bluetooth Volume Hack

This file should also have a lower ringing and message tone when listening to music through the headset. If someone could test and confirm this It would be much appreciated!

As it stands the headset boost overwrites the bluetooth boost, so as a quick workaround i made this file which combines the 2!!!

enjoy! (attached to OP)
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Meltus, I have been unable unzip this to try it. I downloaded it from the op and from your website. I don't know if it is just me or what. :( I guess I can wait until you add it to the app. Nice work...thanks
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
ok, i reuploaded it. try again :)
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Unzipped fine this time. This one is 3.6k, the last one was only 3.3k.

Quick question: Push it as AudioPara4HS.csv , or AudioPara4.csv?

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
AudioPara4.csv :)

Forgot to rename it ><
[G1 Android Development] sabin123:
dows this volume hack will enable mono bluetooth headset to listen to music.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
It doesn't enable anything. It just makes it louder.
[G1 Android Development] sipospeter:
as paid apps are not available here in my country i couldn't download from market so i had to find another source. i have to tell you that i really appreciate your work so i sent you the price of the app through paypal donation. thank you very much!

extra info: i don't know if anyone told you yet but i can confirm that the app works perfectly on the t-mobile pulse.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
thank you for the donation :)

I sent you the apk anyway and will send you updates whenever i release them!

And thanks for the info, it's very helpful! :D

How Come When I Push The Headset Boost With The Stock Files, It Makes The Sound Way More Louder Which Is Unclear?

Hi Meltus,

After some real-world use of the latest release via the market I've come to the following conclusion, the BT headset boost works a little too well! I'm not sure what you changed but the levels seem a bit too high and I'm noticing slightly over-emphasized bass frequencies.

Just my two cents, and it is a definite improvement overall, just seems like EQ settings changed a bit in the wrong direction.

Once again, thanks for your app, great stuff.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Haha, thanks for the tip. I'm a bit low on funds atm so the purchase of my own BT headset is on hold untill my app brings in some more cash at the end of the month (it sucks not having a job ><), but when i do get my hands on one, i'll fine tune the settings and make it sound as good as i can :)
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
NP, trust me, I get the "low on funds" lifestyle these days.

Honestly, I rarely use my headset anymore, usually I stream to a Blackberry audio gateway that is hooked into the aux jack on my car. I think that might be why it was so noticeable for me, I don't think I would have noticed the subtle changes over the stereo headphones.

Take your time, great work as always.
[G1 Android Development] chevycowboyusa:
What kind of headset do you want?

Hey mate! What kind of headset are you looking for??

P.S. Too bad theres no button for "Enable BT on Hero" LoL
[G1 Android Development] docsparks:
Will this make my ear piece louder aswell?

and will buying the app compared to donating on paypal, get you any more money? in regards to Google taxing you for having the app on the market.

thanks
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
I dunno, just some good headphones :P

And yeah, that would be much easier lol

Yeah, paypal take less off each purchase than google does.

For every £1.50 i get from my app, google takes 45p off me!! Daylight robbery if you ask me!

Paypal's fees vary quite a lot though, from 22p to 44p and seems pretty random.
[G1 Android Development] fastludeh22:
Hey glad to see your still working on this. Don't know if u remember me, I posted a bunch when u first started this and ur eq theard. I'm the one who kept a few different eq's on my sdcard, and came up with the term commends to have them symlinked and swap with just a few commands way before your app was avail...anyway here's my review/question:

The new bt+hs is very loud. Hears the thing, I haven't tried it on a bt or hs yet. Using it makes the external speaker much louder! Is it supposed to? I'm that guy that always liked the v3 files, norm turn it down and still had the option to turn it up on that "low file". it seems that with this update and stock files its waaayyyy distorted. Yes I can turn it down, but it seems I could get louder before distortion on old files. Using the bt/hs file with the v3 is even crazier louder. Just wondering which set of files u suggest to use this boost with? This would have def been good on the plane last month, was sitting right by the wing, could not watch this damn show, from all the outside noise lol.

Thanks for all ur work.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
Yeah the BT + HS file is a bit buggy, got a few things to sort out with it.

Also both the standalone files are a bit buggy too, i'll get some fixes out soon but i got loads of university stuff to do first. :) Also got some guides to write for AbsolutelyAndroid.com and some Nexus one compatible files to make. Fairly busy schedule atm :D

[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
input

I've had the best luck working w/ v2.2 w/ the BT headset boost, you can get good results at 2-3 clicks below full output. I have noticed that th EQ curve seems to respond differently with the BT hack, seems like low mids or high bass frequencies are weird. I'll admit, though I'm an audio geek I haven't paid close enough attention to the hex values associated with eq on the dream to make a case of any sorts but what I hear is a distinct change in those frequencies.

Could you repost your eq files, or if you make more in the future post them here. I wonder if it would be possible to write an eq app that altered the hex via user input, killed the media server, updated the files and then restarted the server. It wouldn't be real time but it would allow a user to create an eq profile that suited their needs... ie car stereo, bt headset, home stereo etc.
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
I'd pay good money for this!

I like the V2r2, too. I use my alarm for my kid a lot, and the G1's phone speaker is $#!+. I'd like to tweak for it, though. It's a bit distorted, but mostly what sounds awful is the high freqs coming out of that tiny speaker cranked so high, but I'm losing out on the mid freqs I know the speaker can handle when I use V1 (forget anything close to bass, it's lost).

The links to the EQ files and instructions seem to be down, though, all day today. I can push with the app and pull with adb the EQ files, but I have no idea what to do with them.

Yeah, I've started trying to use SAM instead of Market. I'm a non-profit fan anyway. I guess I think everyone should work for a paycheck instead of getting rewarded for already having a lot of money, at least not like it is these days. 30% is too much.
[G1 Android Development] Zei:
Mel-dawg[lol] made a in-call hack the other day and se ppl asked how they could reduce the noise with this new hack. I pretty sure the same method could be used to cut down the speaker volume as well.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5414762&postcount=26

And maybe send hi a PM or post for help if any is needed:)
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
lmao loving it :D

But on the topic of EQs:

As it stands, the EQ settings i can change DO NOT affect the sound of the Headset (but may affect the BT headset, i've not had chance to test them yet).

Assuming it does affect the BT, there is only 1 EQ, which means to get it good sounding out of the main speaker, it's going to sound terrible through the BT headset and vice versa. I suppose this isn't much of problem, it just means people are going to have to keep switching when they want to listen to music.

So say if i did make an EQ app, people are only really going to download it so they can tweak the sound of the Headset and i'm guessing that there's not going to be that many people listening via a BT headset.

Also, the external speaker is way too crap to have a decent EQ for it. It has absolutely 0 bass response and will distort at even a slight volume gain ><

I have a thread (albeit a very old and outdated thread) explaining what the columns do and how you edit them.

Lol just looked through that thread and it's VERY outdated, the EQ stuff still applies, but i'd pretty much just ignore everything else :p
