I don't believe the sound quality is any better than the diamond to be honest

I had the same problem in mind when buying blackstone, only I was using Nokia 5610 !!!
the speaker is pretty good!! -- you can tweak your blackstone using HDTweak to make the speaker louder!!! the sound quality is also pretty good, for me(Im a melomaniac ) the only problem which bugs me is- the speaker is on the back(when watching movies its pretty hard to hear something unles you "curve" the sound by putting your hand in the way of speaker!!!!

So, the sounds its the same on diamond? cause its really bad sound on diamond... The HD I think is good cause i see on top of the phone the connector for any headphone. So if really bad sound, i prefer stay with my diamond....
Somebody can help us? with test or things like this?
The sound from the phohe-speaker is really really bad.
Its the main thing bothering my right now, I would love to use some rintones with metalbands but the phone just makes noise, even if its its only clear guitartones it sounds like ****.
Only music that sounds fairly good is trance and stuff, without too much base.
The sound from the 3.5 connetctor is awesome though, especially when using Coreplayer.

In my opinion it's worse then Charmer, Kaiser, Diamond.
Sometimes I can barely hear the person on the other side.
The speakerphone mode is brilliant though...
So, weirdest thing. While listening to music on the stock sense player yesterday i moved my headphone cord on my Dr. Dre beats in a vertical direction to avoid tangling and my HD2 immediately begins to redial the last call on my history. I repeated this about, 3 to 4 times successfully, although it would be important to mention that it doesnt act this way every single time i jerk my cord, but a good 1 of 4 times. Any thoughts??
P.S. i am usind the Dre Studios, the larger model, and no i was not using the extra cord that has a built-in volume control and mic
yeah i notice something like that when i plug in my hd2 to my car i dont remember if i was playing with the volume or the cord but the voice command keep running over and over.
Bad music is bad music regardless of the device you play it on. The HD2 is smart enough to actually try and call for help. Load some System of a Down on your device, rm -rf all rap/hip-hop, and you should see your problem remedied instantly.

LOL beats by dr dre are headphones brands gots nothing to do with rap music. system their cool but if you hear some immortal technique or nas it will spice up your device. dont listen to the rap on radio thats just garbage i would rather listen to jonas brothers than rap on the radio or mtv makes me wanna throw up.

dude don't say that cause im just gonna spend 200 bucks on something i maybe use 4 times a month lol
its 350 and trust me you wouldnt be using them 4 times a month , after u hear them you wont be able to listen to anything else
Well I stand corrected (about the headphones only ). Headphones sound only as good as the source audio, and most of my mp3s are crappy 96kbps from the napster era. Is the HD2 capable of pushing out good quality audio (over 48kHz 24bit?).
The dialing might be a remnant of the way HTC used to wire their extUSB/Audio-Out, and since they allow for music controls, maybe it's making contact signaling to dial. I'll receive my HD2 on Monday, so I don't know yet, do 3.5 mm plus feel like they go in correctly all the way in? are the Beats' plugs anything fancy that might not connect right?
Yeah, Beats By: Dr. Dre are pretty ****ing incredible.
I'm a bit of an audiophile... and I've owned quite a few excellent headsets from, Sennheiser, Astro, and Tritton.
But in terms of MP3 player specific headphones... these are the best!
NOW, having said that... if you haven't tried using the application, WOW SRS HD for Windows Mobile, then you haven't fully experienced what your Beats By Dre are capable of outputting.

No alternative DRIVER necessary.
You simply install the .CAB file on that thread... and perform a soft reset immediately after the installation process is complete. ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS read the instructions (if they're provided) ... CAREFULLY!
it would be nice to have a deck with speakers like the iphone has from bose or other. I swear i think im just gonna get an iphone just because they have alot of apps and nice titanium and carbon fiber cases. but i want the beats the small ones not the dj ones
my Vmoda's do the same thing. the default HTC headphones do not, but the soudn quality is horrible.
I really appreciate the quick responses guys, xda ftw!!!! Unfortunately, my problem still exists. I see that other people have similar problems but no one seems too concerned with a fix. But, since the thread is not dead, im not concerned much. Shoutout to Reignzone because the before and after with teh WOW SRS HD was indeed wow.

Anytime boss, anytime. Glad to have been of some help with that suggestion...
Seriously, even a Wal-mart, bull**** pair of earbuds sounds high-quality with the WOW SRS application.
It doesn't do that with my AKG K271s... Or Beyers...
It could be a sign telling you not to use the Beats... Yes, I have tried them. Didn't like the overblown bass.
get a life deuche, this isnt the place to discuss your horrible taste in music
Audio booster

I use the Audio Booster that came standard on my HD2. It helps out a lot. No joke. A lot of pre-sets or you can customize it yourself I am sure. You should give that a shot. I try to avoid installing cabs when something similar is already stock on the phone. I guess I got that habit from my wing due to the lack of memory. But i dont think you have to worry about that with this bad boy HD2!
The audio booster has nothing on WOW SRS, at least imo.

Lol, saying you like WOW SRS just took away your audiophile card, every implementation ive herd of WOW SRS just mangles and screws up the dynamic range of audio.
Hi people, thought I would share a new application I found using "Omarket", for those who don't know what it is, its like windows market place but most of the cabs are free ware and actually made by some guys round here. Its pretty cool. The music identification application is called "Midomi"
I was using MusicID but this linked in with Shazam and so eventually it expired and wanted cash- aye right. Anyway I found this this app and I`m very happy with it. Basically, "hum a tune" or let it listen (grab) a tune for 10 secs, it then tells you what it is but ALSO gives you a preview of the song just so you are sure. Really am quite impressed with this and want you guys to get the benefit too. You may have heard of gracenote - similar thing.
Have tested it using TV and radio songs so far 100%, however it will never get my weird 60's psych stuff or my bad singing voice :/

It's been out for around a year now, and yes, I agree it's a good bit better than Music ID.
Hi azahoth,
Thanks for the heads up.
very nice app...
tested it with about 10 songs, and some of them arent really famous
but midomi found out every song
really useful and good to delete discussions at the tv, when everybodys asking "what song is that?"

weird, i just tested with billie jean by michael jackson and it came out as weezer - spider.
does ambient noise affect the results significantly?

Did you sing or play it?
Ambient noise may interfere but bear in mind what it is actually doing; its cross referencing the results with like a million formants or "peaks" of millions of songs it can give strange results sometimes. Sing "yellow submarine" by the beatles, that's a good example of how it does work with general tracks. Not sure how it would stand in a club but better the microphone, better the results imo
I use Shazam Encore. Works pretty good.
Just after getting my G2 i installed CyanogenMod 10.2 Milestone on it. I started doing some tests to see if CM could be my daily driver, and nothing really seemed to be a deal breaker, except, when i try to record videos (or I'm guessing any other sound recorder) the sound it not really that great. I went back to the stock LG software, and was hoping i only had to stay there until CM fixed the noise cancellation issue. But what do i find, the noise cancellation problem is still there.
I have been looking around here on the XDA forums, (This is my first post btw) and I came across this (what seemed like) amazing mod. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471900 But it might just be me being a droid-noob (Have only had android for 2 weeks now), but i cant figure out how to get this to work, it even bumps up the quality of pictures and videos including other cool tweaks. I have tried installing the .zip file via CWM, but that gave me nothing, also tried installing the cameraapp.apk the thread provided, but it just refused to install.
So please, if any droid-guru can help me make my microphone sound better, (both in the stock software and in CM) i would appreciate it!
Are you using some cover on the G2 ? If so, try removing it as it might cause disturbance to the reference microphone.

I do not have a cover or case, and I know the noise cancellation is software related. My phone is the D802, the one without a rear-facing microphone, maby that can have something to do with it?
I have the same problem witm my lg g2.After I record a video or use voice recorder the sound freezing and the quality is very poor.I thought that I have only my this problem...My phone is not rooted and I have it from yesterday morning.Today I sow this problem.I made a factory reset and the problem is not solved.Is something that I can do with this issue?
so title should be cm10.2 Noise cancellation, lol

This is happening on stock, CM and PAC-man roms, so its not just a CM issue.
my bad, you can disable it from dialer however, it might be good reason to return your unit

I have thought about that, but I've heard a few other people have this problem as well, and im 99% sure it is software related. Though to every rule there is an exception..
Just some more info. Here is a video i recorded going home from work, and as you can hear the sounds are very "Watery" or "Distorted" as many describe it. (The bad video quality is a combination of my using CM10.2, only recording in 720P and YouTubes bitrate being bad as always)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgdtWzoQkOU&feature=youtu.be
And no, I did NOT cover up any of the microphones, im 100% sure about that.

Video uses the rear mic for audio zoom. Not even sure if it cancels as well like the top. Verizons model ONLY has a top. I have no distortion or watery sound when using stock recorder or on video. I however do get dead silence between some sounds, very good cancellation, sometimes a bit too much. Voice Privacy in dailer has NOTHING to do with voice cancellation. It is an algorithm used to encrypt voice communications and is worthless being hacked long ago. VS980

I have the d802, and that does not have rear mounted microphone. So maybe it is just some bad optimization. There has got to be a way to disable the noise cancelling microphone, or use it as a secondary mic.

Okay..
So basically every rom out there for the G2 has terrible sound when it comes to the microphone, but there is a fix, i'm sure!
A few weeks back i downloaded the AOSPA 4 rom for the G2 and installed it, and guess what, it removed the noise cancellation!
But after the rom was buggy here and there, I decided to live with the bad sound on CM 10.2.
Now a few weeks has gone by, and I wanted to try out the updated AOSPA 4 rom, but what is diz, the sound is terrible!?
So it seems like the whoever is in charge of the AOSPA rom for the G2 has brought back the horrible sound.
Now is there a way to get the microphone profiles from one rom over to another? I have the old AOSPA 4 rom, with the working sound on my computer, and I want to take the microphone profile, and save it, so that i can manually add it to any other rom i download in the future, because I know that roms like CM probably wont update the mic profile for one specific phone.
Hey there, I just got myself LG G2 D802 and I find the noise cancellation in videos to be extremely annoying. Do you guys know if there is a fix to it yet? Something to disable it would be awesome.

Might be a HW fault or y'all are being too sensitive videos recorded with my D802 have great sound.

In the first second you can hear 'normal' sound, then it goes down. You can hear my voice very well, so the quality of it is fine, but then you can't hear very well the scratching sounds (it cuts in and out).

Could it be really a hardware issue? Should I return the phone?
Bumping this in hopes there's been some progress on this subject? I returned two Lg G2's due rto this issue, so its definitely an issue with the phone. Thanks

guys, anybody, Im bumping another thread just to get this issue alive, im going insane with bad recordings, I will throw the phone at the wall
Hi, I have S8 Exynos version and would like to give a better sound to it. It's possible to improve sound quality without root?
Other issue about de sound that bothering me, it's the min. volume of the phone. When I'm listening to an WhatsApp audio, or even a common call, the minimum volume it still a lit bit loud to me. If anyone it's near me, the person can listen to it. Anyway to solve this without root too?
Thanks
I use Poweramp. It does enhance the music output significantly.
How you installed any app recently or the phone has been behaving like this ever since you bought it?

The sound issue is present ever since you bought the phone? Or you noticed it recently?
I am asking because I want to know if the root cause of this issue is due to manufacturing or developed after you have installed an app.

It's not an really issue, is just something that bother me because I don't have a good amplification and like I said, the minimum volume of audios in calls or whatsapp audios it's too loud
I compared with my friend's iPhone X and noticed immediaty the sound from the iPhone X blew my Galaxy S8 Active right away!
The iPhone X speaker has much fuller rich tone and bass. Galaxy S8 sounds like all tremble.
