I9000 sound distorted. - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hi,
Does anyone know how to adjust sound mixer levels? It seems the no matter where i set the level to, it still sounds distorted .

Look into the dev section and get a kernel or rom that has voodoo sound. There are a lot of them, so just pick one that you would like the best.
Follow the instructions carefully and you should have a better sound as well as speed, battery, responsiveness and other improvements, depending on the rom/kernel.
And if you're afraid of flashing and/or want to support supercurio, you can simply buy voodoo control plus from market.

You can buy voodoo control plus on the market by Supercurio. His sound improvements are simply astonishing. You can have voodoo sound without a custom kernel as long as you have root. Also it helps support him

voodoo sound

i am using stock kernel and i realised that stock kernels are supersmooth in comparison to overclocked kernels....
the only thing i miss is voodoo sound...
so i m curious to know if i can apply voodoo patch on stock kernel somehow...?
does anybody know how to do that..?
On a related sidenote, can voodoo sound be added to CM7? And how is CM7 sound quality? (I'm using my phone mainly as a MP3 player)
I m also looking for the same.. I use it in kryillos rom it's great..want it in stock rom..

I thought that CM has DSPmanager that controls the sound of the speaker and headphones and where you can change bass treble EQ en such things for every sound produced by the phone or am I missing something
try voodoo control plus from market it needs root access to load voodoo onto ur stock kernel...
@above:
already tried that....
bt its not working..

[Q] Which ROM giving a great music experience

I'm own galaxy mini using cm7 nightly tass and sound quality is far compared with i9000 even using cm7 made. This phone is advance compare to mini so does anyone know what ROM comes with excellent sound quality.

All ROMs have same sound, this question is like asking which governor gives best gaming experience!
Do you know if it's possible to implement audio beats in our sgs?

Not true!
The SGS audio hardware is truly impressive... theoretically! However, in reality the software implementation from Samsung totally messed up the potential this phone had and wasted virtually all the awesome features & quality of the included Wolfson WM8994 Headphone Amp hardware & Codec.
Supercurio did some amazing work fixing these problems, and make his tweaks available to all rom producers in the Voodoo Sound project.
So, if you are running a Samsung Stock rom, then you definitely currently DON'T have the best sound from your device.
If you are running a third party rom, you might well already have Voodoo Sound available to you, but not fully active. To get the most from his tweaks (if already built-in to you your rom) you need to download the voodoo control app from the Play Market.
If you are on stock, (or a rom that doesn't include voodoo sound) you can install the Voodoo Sound stuff to any rooted phone, or pick any rom that has it included. Don't forget the control app too from the Play market to get the most from it.
Then... enjoy your phone as it was intended...

ROM is irrelevant, KERNEL with Voodoo Sound support is what you need.
Semaphore.gr has kernels made to run Samsung GB ROMS and ICS ROMS.

Yes. You were more specific (and therefore more correct) than me.
I re-read what I wrote and can see I wasn't clear enough. I was trying to answer the original question from the OP "which ROM should I get?" ...and do so as simply as possible!
Some roms include a kernel with Voodoo sound out of the box, so if the OP wants a new rom anyway they can pick one with Voodoo Sound already in the kernel and get better sound in one go. (or might find they already have it even, but not fully active)
Of course if the OP likes their current rom (stock or otherwise), and it doesn't have voodoo sound, then changing kernels will add Voodoo Sound for them equally simply. I'd already said this in my first reply, but without explaining how (ie didn't mention kernels), just that you could add it to stock.
Thanks for adding clarity to the discussion...

So writing that my post isn't true wasn't right, as I said that the ROM doesn't affect music. You need a KERNEL with voodoo sound.

Ha!
Depends how you consider a rom....
I consider a rom to be a complete package (which contains a chosen kernel... amongst other stuff). Therefore some Roms are baked with voodoo in... and some are baked without it in (depending on what kernel they contain by default). By that understanding, which Rom the OP picks DOES potentially make a big difference on sound quality (because of the awesome work that supercurio has done).
Of course, you can always change the default kernel to include voodoo afterwards, so no-one would disagree with your comment just now that the kernel is the bit that adds voodoo.
However OP asked specifically which "ROM" has the best sound...
You said it made no difference, which isn't exactly true (and I still stand by that assertion). In fact you didn't mention kernels or voodoo at all in your first post.
So apologies for disagreeing with your post. I was purely attempting to help the OP since I was surprised no-one had mentioned voodoo sound yet. That's all...
No offence intended...
Just trying to be helpful...

DarkyROM v10.2 ★ JVQ ★ with Voodoo Sound support.

[Q] Gotta start somewhere...

Ok, so I got the Note 2, with LTE. Great phone thus far. Had a few other android phones prior to this one, with those I would generally just run CM. But now I have my Stylus. And I love it!! Apparently CM is no good in regard to Stylus support.
I am also not very impressed with the sound quality with my earphones on the stock ROM.
What are the first steps to turn this phone into a even more awesome phone?
New ROMS? tips? Remember I want to keep my stylus and all of its great features.
Thanks! :good:
which earphones are you using? because the stock ones are pure trash. i've had no problems with audio quality on my N2. maybe just get poweramp and tweak the equalizer for what works for you?
You can start here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206868
Flash the Perseus kernel & enable the master sequence for near-perfect display calibration (Unless you really love the overly saturated signature Samsung look). Will also bring better performance, battery life, & sound quality, plus a host of other features. I use stock builds + Perseus & love it.

If your running the lte I recommend either deadmans or hashchecks custom roms. They both come with aroma installer and you can pick which mods you want. Im personally running deadmans with the perseus kernel acid audio engine with motomotoo theme. Looks cool and the screen calibration from perseus with acid sound is spot on

Best Audio Configuration : ROM+Kernel

Hi guys
Thinking about giving the Note 2 a chance since it has Wolfson.
Sound means a lot for me, i still have my old Nexus S with Voodoo Sound just because i love the sound out of it.
I would like to know which is for you guys the best combination for audio purposes, meaning ROM and Kernel, also which player u use and how happy u are with the sound, how u describe it, which are the strongest points, what are u missing...just your general opinion about it.
Depends what you like. personally I'm on Perseus kernel, which lets you change gain of volume and freqs but it doesn't color the sound, beats, xperia etc mod are not for me. ROM wise, It doesn't matter.

I have and old Nexus S, with CM11 and DSP Manager, i have direct access to the DAC, which is what Boeffla Sound does for the Note 2 as far as i know.
That would do it for me, pure Wolfson experience, then find the best audio settings and ready to go.
Custom rom, agni kernel (with boeffla sound) + viper sound mod + neutron player
for me the best combination ever
Yeah. You are right.

I Personally would use Jet Audio as has alot of Audio tweaks which are awesome, I have used Different kernels and they do a great job especially with Eargasm turned on, as for VIPER or similar they are great but i found that they muffle the sound and reduce volume so i actually prefer it without and use Jet audio to edit my audio as for ROM well it depends on what you like and what Android version you want maybe try Sungsonic or Sensonic I personally use JellyKat with JetAudio and sounds great for me
I had the original Galaxy S, and also used the voodoo tweaks. The Note II sounds broadly very similar to my ears, it really is very good. No chance of driving my HD650s without an amp or anything, but the quality is great.
I'm still on an old ROM - Omega v18 with Perseus kernel. Easy to tweak the volume levels and access the HW equaliser for adding a notch of bass for the stock earbuds.
I need some help guys.
Hey guys so i am kinda newbie in this things,but i installed a lot of roms till now. By just folowing carefully step by step everything. Never messed up,ocasionally got some phones into a boot loop but managed to revive them. Also bricked a Nexus 4 but revived that as well. Anyway. My question for you guys is....how do i know if my Note 2 (n7100) Has the boeffla or as a matter afact ANY Sound mods installed on it ? All i know is i have this:
Android 4.4.2

And it wasnt rooted. But somehow it had TWRP installed on it. So i went for it and rooted straight away and first i tried installing Viper4Android 4 but it kept giving me error on installing via TWRP so i installed the old one (2.3 i guess) Witch sucks actually cus the sound is very ... distorted and un-natural. I cant seem to find any setting that would sound good and i wanna get the most out of my Note 2 on sound as i am a huge basshead. I`m frustrated cus i bought a pair of Monster DNA In ear,Skullcandy Ink`D,Skullcandy Smokin`buds Skullcandy 50/50 and Skullcandy Holua Wood. And none of them sound that good. (I thought with some good earbuds problem will be solved but NOPE).
So please .... Please guys have some heart and help me out...
I have pretty much tried DSP Manager, Viper Mod, Beats Audio Mod, Sony Clear Audio Mod, Noozxoide and so on. But from my experience I found the best combination is "Dolby Digital Plus" combined with manual "Audio improvement Mod" in default_gain.conf file itself. Without any distortion I can hear crystal clear notes even if they are very low on frequency. I am on Dr. Ketan V14 Rom, Music FX and Default Music Player. Its worth the try. Follow these 2 threads:
Step 1) Install Dolby Digital Plus
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2/themes-apps/dolby-digital-plus-note-2-t2918922
Step 2) Audio improvement for N7100 : (here you change the DAC values)

Settings listed by Julian67 is more than enough, atleast for me. Good Luck.

Where can I get the latest version of Perseus kernel for note2?
Anyone can give me the best audio configuration for galaxy note 2 with CM 12 Rom and agni kernel
Hello guys can anyone please help me iam newbie for this I wanted my mobile to play audio like iPhone (if any left sound comes it should play in left speaker aka earpiece & if any right sound comes it should come to right speaker aka main bottom speaker) I done everything but my both left and right speaker are engaged in left audio & for right audio only right speaker is engaged. Can anyone say me how to play left audio to play in earpiece my device - Asus Zenfone max pro m1 , custom rom oxygen OS 9 ,rooted
At first my mobile didn't give access to play media in earpiece. now it has that permission but even bottom speaker is working in left speaker command

Best custom rom for a music junkie?

As the title says?. I listen to a lot of music via my headphones. Also is there any roms that improve battery life even further?.
Cheers guys

These kinds of threads generally don't go far. Everyone uses their device differently, and thus battery will be different for everyone.
As for music, roms won't generally make a difference in audio quality. Some may include Viper4Android, some kernels may have audio level tweaks, but those can both be installed on any rom.

What he said. Battery performance depends solely on you and how you use your phone, two people using the exact same ROM can have wildly different experiences with battery. As for which ROMs may have audio tweaks, the answer to your question is as simple as looking at them to find out.
dont expect high fidelity music out of a phone (especially this one), get a portable amp/dac... as far rom and battery life all of them more or less the same, the only way to extend battery life is be on wifi and have your screen constantly at 25% brightness or less
@gibbo82 Any one you want for sound just add this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2952137 and you'll be good to go. ? I personally use Dirty Unicorns rom and ak kernel and its my favorite setup but you gotta find what's best for you. That's the beauty of android. Choices.... We have many. Good luck.

+1 to what most people have said. Rom won't make a difference that much. Definitely check out Viper4Android. Not sure how much of an audiophile you are but like someone already said a dac/amp will also open up new avenues.
