[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
excellent, that means it should also work fine on JF's build as they are the same in this department. :D

little bit of an update for you guys;

It turns out that the G1 uses a RMS compressor for Audio, which isn't good news as RMS compressors offer no real audio boost and are mainly for tweaking and shaping audio quality. i'm trying to boost it as much as i can but as it stands, it's much easier to make a really quiet, excellent sounding G1 than a plain loud one :(
[G1 Android Development] iPhotik:
Does anyone know what my problem is?

E: Wrong digest:

system/etc/AudioPara_TMUS.csv

E:Verification failed

Installation aborted.
[G1 Android Development] nockam:
I will trade you phones... the sound on me and my wifes G1 is way too low for anything. The only decent volume on it is when i use my wired headset (dont have a BT headset)
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
which method are you using? if you're getting adb errors try using method 1 or vice versa.

the TMUS one might not be essential, i'm not too sure yet. see what happens without it.
[G1 Android Development] amirnew:
mayba someone can write an EQ progrrame?

it's really missing in the phone...

the guide works on JF1.5 thanks!

amir!
[G1 Android Development] iPhotik:
I am using the first method.

Are you sure its not essential? I will do another update with just the other 2 files then.
[G1 Android Development] V1R3Z:
oh yeah!

Looks like im first in line for v2! im gona give it a try right now ill post when done
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
yup, 100% sure. just tested and it works fine without it. :)

btw, V2 is out now. managed to get it a bit louder, but i'm tired and goin bed soon lol.
[G1 Android Development] iPhotik:
I keep trying to do it, but now its like saying every single one of the files i overwrited has to be taken out and replaced with the original files. O_o. I don't have ADB on my computer, is there any other way to do this?
[G1 Android Development] amirnew:
i'm not sure what you did' but i see that every band has 4 parameters.

QF - States how much the side frequencyies will Be affected

from the change of the center frequency.the "FRE"

i don't know what the "type" means

and the last... GA is the gain like i think you already understand.

two requests.

1.

can you upload the original 3 files

? because i pulled them but they are not on my desktop.

2.

can someone raise the glove and write an app that can change these values within the android OS?

i hope i was clear...

i need the original files because i lost almost the whole bass in the headphones after the change...

thank you!

anypne know if this worx for Haykur's other builds because theres no AudioPara_TMUS.csv and AudioPara4.csv says it doesnt exist
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
Awesome! Working fine on DudeCake 1.1a. Definitely louder max volume. The entire range is louder as well. I used adb and version 2. This is great for those with the Seido 2600mAh battery and extended cover. The cover places the speaker further behind and inside the cover, which in turn made it sound muffled and quiet. With this tweak, the speaker is louder than it was with stock cover. :eek::cool:

Incredible work dude.... This kind of ingenuity is what keeps me coming back to this forum. :D:D Thumbs up x50!

#busybox cp /system/etc/AudioFilter.csv /sdcard/AudioBackUp

#wget http://files.lucidrem.us/jf/system/etc/AudioPara4.csv

#busybox cp AudioFilter.csv /system/etc

#busybox cp AudioPara_TMUS.csv /system/etc

#busybox cp AudioPara4.csv /system/etc

this is something i might add in to my script file .. to automate
[G1 Android Development] Jocutz1987:
u cant make from terminal emulator
[G1 Android Development] djind:
That last method, all done from terminal, do I have to be connected to my computer (with installed sdk etc) or can I just type that as I go?

It says:

cp: cannot stat '/system/etc/AudioPara_TMUS.csv' : No such file or directory

i'm on Cyan's 3.3.8.. Is this a problem?

The other 2 files backed up just fine..

Edit: I just did the rest.. all copied well.. maybe I was missing the audiopara_tmus?

But all went well.. nice and loud.. THNX!!
[G1 Android Development] arinpsycho:
Meltus, does this means u have found the bluetooth fix for Hero rom?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
good to hear it went well for you!

and yeah, some builds don't include the TMUS file and neither does my AutoMod anymore because it has no effect on anything as far as i can tell. You can remove it if you want and everything will still run ok.

no, i found a bluetooth fix for the volume, as my other mods didn't seem to affect it. If bluetooth doesn't work on a build, this wont fix it :)

it depends if you are using my AutoMod or not.

if you are, extract the zip file to anywhere and open up the v4 folder. then, replace the AudioPara4.csv with the bluetooth one and run the script.

if you're doing everything via adb, simply push the AudioFilter from v4 and then push the AudioPara4 from the bluetooth fix.

all the equaliser settings are stored in the AudioFilter.csv file.

it's fairly simple to edit, but with the new hero files there is an extra EQ that i still don't understand fully. editing the old EQ in the new file doesn't seem to have much effect.

[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
The Bluetooth fix did not work for me. However, I played around with the files and it seems like the bluetooth calling is controlled through AudioPara_TMUS.

Here is a link to the Hero Clarity files + working bluetooth on the Dudes 1.3b7. Hopefully it works for you guys too.

Don't forget to reboot!
[G1 Android Development] golferguy17:
ok so i used the new automodv4 and all went well. i chose option 4 which was the "quality" one and my music skipped to the next track so i assume everything went according to plan. the only problem is that now whenever i make phone calls, people ask me if i am driving with the windows down because there is so much static. Also, when i am using a fm transmitter to listen to music and get a text or a phone call, all audio completely shuts off and i have to reboot my phone. any ideas? thanks!
[G1 Android Development] youngstacks74:
got my phone connectected as htc with some numbers..... everytime i do one of the choices nothing happens.... tried to play a song while i was doing it and nothing happened
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
not sure what the problem could be. it seems as though adb is working fine. try rebooting your phone and trying again, or making sure your phone is read/write enabled before hand (adb remount). My script does this but it might be worth a try. :)

yeah the V4 files are pretty unstable atm, causing some in-call problems for some people whilst being fine for others. not sure what the problem is exactly but i'm looking to it.

The way the EQ works on the new files is pretty odd but i'm getting there :D
[G1 Android Development] creid2352:
I used both methods, adb and the terminal and nothing changed. I am running cyanogen version 3.4.
[G1 Android Development] kusotare:
same thing on Dude's 1.3b7. I used both methods (autoloader and adb) and tried with v2, v3 and v4. With the autoloader, it did restart the media, but no audio increase/decrease between versions. With ADB, same thing after reboot. No change in audio levels at all.
[G1 Android Development] charmartist:
Is "Haykuro's 6.0r1 with V2" a Hero build?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
yes, but not the version with Rosie.

and to the people having problems with it not getting any louder. it has been confirmed working on the builds you are running so try restarting your phones. Usually this fixes 99% of problems with the audio.

can i increase max volume on this build....if so how?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
did you read the first post? :confused:

the methods work on ALL builds.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
It works on beta 8-10.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
UPDATE: V5 details up. read the first post for information.

should be up somtime tonight once i've cleaned the files up a bit :)
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
yay :D can't wait for it, time to break my f5 button!
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
wow this should be awesome :) does it have to have the volume of v3 or can it be combined with v2 or v1?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
i don't even know myself atm, sometimes it works and other times it doesn't.

for some stupid reason, it wont work with my AutoMod, it needs to be adb pushed manually. at least on my comp anyway.

so far the audio sounds horrible through the headphones, but is stupidly loud. like seriously deafening. going to try and sort out the EQ and see if i get it sounding alright. no change with regards to the exterior volume, but coupled with V3 i don't think it needs it. i could always boost the EQ gains if people really want but that will jsut be distortion rather than 'sound'.

this is turning out to be a major headache lol :p
[G1 Android Development] big_d093:
jf 1.51

just making sure i am correct..so do i download rename update then flash??

noobie question!! sorry for the inconvience..
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
if you are refering to the pre-done builds then yes :)

guys, can someone test these for me.

INSTRUCTIONS: this is important. use my AutoMod to push V3, let the media server reboot, then put these 2 files in the 'custom' folder, and push custom.

if this doesn't work (about half the time it might not) use AutoMod to push V3 then once the MediaServer re-loads, manually adb push V5.

There is no guarentee even that will work, i'm still not too sure whats going on with these files yet. when they do work, the external volume is that of V3 but the headphone volume is VERY loud.

DO NOT start playing music with your headphones in on full volume.

http://rapidshare.com/files/243505165/V5.zip.html

also, this only seems to work with V3, for some strange reason.

cheers guys ;)
[G1 Android Development] emms007:
Hello Meltus,

I worked fine for me, I can definately notice that the headphone sound is louder. No way I can put this in my ears at maximum velocity.

I used adb push all the way to install it. Adb push V3, kill the media process using the shell, then adb push V5 and kill once again;

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
glad to hear it, i'll upload it to the first post.

thanks!! :D
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Just want to confirm that the audio quality is much better with version 5. I did some simple tests by using Voice Recorder.

I flashed the latest Dude 1.3b12 and did some recordings and wasn't happy with the audio with and without a bluetooth headset.

I followed your instructions by pushing V3 first, rebooting media and then pushing V5 and rebooting media. Did some more test recordings with and without the bluetooth headsets and its a good improvement, as previously I had to resort back to stock purely because I make quite a few calls and many people complain that they ca't hear me or audio quality is too poor.

The audio recording via bluetooth wasn't fantastic but I suspect it could be my headset. Will test again once my Jawbone Prime arrives.

Just want to say thanks to Meltus for this audio mod as the stock G1 audio pales in comparison to my Nokia N95 that I was using previously.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
glad you like it :)

the audio quality is never going to be amazing on the G1, the files we have to mess with aren't the best.

V4 is just about as good-sounding as i can get it, but using those files result in loads of in-call problems.

i'm continue working on the V5 file though. because it's using a different method, i reckon i can get the EQ sounding a bit better. not gonna be a huge improvement though :p
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
can u work on getting v5 to work with V1-3? that would be awesome
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
Awesome, Love these Audio mods. Keep getting better and better with every version
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
try it. theres no reason why it shouldn't work, it didn't work for me, but it may work for others.

just use the same method but replace the V3 with V2/1.

someone please try this actually, i'm intruiged as to why it's not working for me and whether it's a 'one-off' thing.
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
I shall be keeping tabs on this thread as really the main function of a phone or smartphone is to take and make calls! Least its louder, almost like my previous Nokia N95 and the quality is back now. Actually after listening in on my recordings the quality isn't fantastic to begin with as you said but at least its functional and clear.

Good work ^_^
[G1 Android Development] corp769:
I have a quick question about using the bluetooth file; after upgrading to V5 from the v3 mod, is it safe to upload the bluetooth file, or how does that work?
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
no, i forgot to mention this.

DONT use the bluetooth fix, for some reason it causesthe new V5 to 'break'.

if you want the bluetooth fix, then please use a previous build. sorry about this :(

i'll be working on it again tomorrow, 1:30am here lol :p

i also have my own little 'sub-section' on androidclubhouse where i'll be organising this thread and writing up some guides if anyone's interested. :D

[G1 Android Development] Stryder5:
I got the following error when running:

adb pull /system/etc/AudioPara_TMUS.csv BACKUP/AudioPara_TMUS.csv

Error: remote object '/system/etc/AudioPara_TMUS.csv' does not exist

And when I was running:

adb pull /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv

It just hangs and never completes the command. The file created is also empty. What's wrong?
[G1 Android Development] corp769:
first of all, you dont have the TMUS file on your phone, it is an added file that comes from the modded audio files. second, it is not adb pull /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv, but adb pull /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv /backup/AudioPara4.csv
[G1 Android Development] Stryder5:
AAh, didn't know about the TMUS file. Makes sense.

I was doing:

adb pull /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv /BACKUP/AudioPara4.csv

I just didn't specify the location in my post. The file is created but is empty. The command prompt just hangs there and never completes.
[G1 Android Development] fastludeh22:
You said command prompt so I'm going to assume your usinng windows. You need to put c:\ in front ie, adb pull /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv c:\backup\AudioPara4.csv
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
there's no need to do the 'adb pull' commands if you don't want to as i've included the original stock files on the first post.

also has anyone tried V5 with V1 or V2 yet? i'm curious as to whether it would work for anyone.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
UPDATE: V5_r2! This version should be working on ALL versions, but, it will not be the same volume. e.g. on V3, the headphone volume was stupidly loud, on V2 it's still loud but not quite as deafening, V1 is just about right (for me anyway) and stock is rubbish :p

basically, V5_r2 is an upgrade for any build, which incresses the headphone volume a bit.

DOESN'T WORK ON V4!!!!! as far as i can tell.

enjoy!

hey meltus, let me know when you get the time to try to incorporate the bluetooth fix into version 5, i'll test it out for ya man. also, what is the manual command to restart the media service? i use linux and i dont want to rely on a windows based program just to reboot the media service
[G1 Android Development] momentarylapseofreason:
My deepest apologies if this has been answered already but I'm curious if this has an effect on the Media audio. Reason I ask is because I use StreamFurious as a police/fire scanner for my area. It's ok while indoors but in the car or outside, it's not audible.

EDIT: I know it doesn't seem to change the volume but wondering if it is in fact possible to
[G1 Android Development] GT30RSUBIE:
I love the version 2. Thanks bro.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
no, it's just tweaked a little to work with all versions.

nothing 'volume wise' has changed :)

Try manually pushing them and leave out the TMUS file. see if that works for you.

should have it done by tomorrow/monday.

and the command to reboot the mediaserver is not getting released just yet ;)

i just don't want someone stealing my app idea.

tbh, most people on here know quite a lot about linux commands and it's not complicated, so i'm sure someone can figure it out :p

which volume are you talking about?

my hack boosts the system volume (except for bluetooth, which i'm working on) so it effects everything. Im not sure if aplpications have their own way of controling the volume but it should still be louder.

you're welcome :D
[G1 Android Development] youngstacks74:
when i put v3 on my phone it makes the loudspeaker really loud.... ok i notice when i put the v5 update the loud speaker got lower... i thought it was only suppose to affect the headphone volume... im using lucid to do it.... adb connects but it doesnt do anything... it says its pushing the files but nothin changes on my phone

[G1 Android Development] Asswipe44:
Thanks for all your hard work, Meltus! If I want to use the v4_r3 audiomod, do I just push the two files included in that zip or do I also have to push one of the files from v1 v2 v3? Sorry if I missed something but I'm just making sure. The main thing that's bothering me is that the v4 audiomod only contains 2 files whereas v1 v2 and v3 contain 3.

Also, is it advisable to upgrade to v2 and then upgrade to v4 or can I just upgrade to v4 from stock settings?
[G1 Android Development] zzrssh:
Just a small note, the command:

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

Is unnecessarily long. Since /dev/block/mtdblock3 has a fstab entry, this will do just fine:

mount -o rw,remount /system

Furthermore, some of the commands can be further condensed from:

#busybox cp AudioFilter.csv /system/etc
#busybox cp AudioPara_TMUS.csv /system/etc
#busybox cp AudioPara4.csv /system/etc

to:

cp *.csv /system/etc/

The busybox command is not necessary in any of the commands, since that is just the shell, and the shell is already running.

And, I would think it'd be best to remount /system as ro after you're finished (or reboot the phone to do that), for security reasons:

mount -o ro,remount /system

Hope that helps.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
it has made it less distorted. (which will affect the volume slightly, but it will also sound much better and not do as much harm to your speakers) If you don't like it, use the AudioFilter.csv from V3 instead of V5.2. It will make your loudspeaker all distorted but will also make the headphones sound terrible. I had to balance it out. :p

The 2 files in V4, the AudioFilter.csv and AudioPara4.csv, are the only essential files. The AudioPara4_TMUS.csv can be left out and everything will work ok. so in response to your question, no, just push the 2 files and you'll be fine :)

and yes, you can upgrade straight from stock to V4. you CAN'T do this with V5, however. This requires you to have V1, 2, or 3 installed first. (NOT V4)

hope this helps :)
[G1 Android Development] youngstacks74:
thanks i was just making sure because i thought i was doing something wrong... it sounds great but when it stopped being distorted i thought i messed up

[G1 Android Development] Asswipe44:
Awesome. Just one more thing: Would upgrading to V2 and then to V4 work in terms of improving my sound quality and making the volume of the phone louder or is it only one or the other?

Thanks man.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
one or the other. V1, 2, 3 and 4 are all seperate versions. V5 is an 'upgrade' and is the only one which is affected by which version you had installed previously.

my personal recommendation would be to use V3 with the V5.2 upgrade. makes it pretty loud whilst not distorting as much :)
