Poor music quality

Hi guys,
I have searched and seached, but have not been able to find any information on this...
The thing is, that the music/sound quality on my HD2 running Android is really aweful. I'm currently running Froyostone V2, but this problem has been the same with all the builds I've tried. The music has a lot of bass, but high and mid tones are lacking. If I put the volume up, the sound distorts and crackles. But if I turn the volume down, there is a lot of background white noise. Also on quiet parts on songs, there is a lot of background noise "following" the quiet melodies.
So... Anyone have a fix for this problem? The sound quality when using the HD2 in Winmo is a LOT better.
Shameless bump...

Try dsp manager from the market,works for me....some sort of a equalizer.

[Q] Any ROM with normal sound volume?

I've tried three or four Android ROMs and they all have incredibly loud in-call volume. Hoping one of you guys can recommend a ROM that works properly and fulfills its primary function as a phone. It's frustrating to see so much effort being put into fixing things like blurry MMS and LED notifications when the basic function as a usable phone that doesn't blast your eardrum to smithereens is overlooked.

Thanks!
Odd. Usually people complain about the low in-call volume on phone's. Here is the complete opposite. I would choose loud over too low any time
What roms are you using? Might give it a go. ;-)

x3, I thought I was going deaf when I first switched to using these roms.
Seems like you're a sense junkie, but if you can live without sense, I'm using cmn 2.0 by ocm and it seems okay. Also, most the gingerbread roms seemed fine, although those come with their own batch of problems.

Volume boost options after root & ROM?

Looking to see what options we have to adding a bit more volume to the media levels of the external speaker.
Running LeeDroid 2.2.2/2.2.8 and even with the "20% boost" the ext. speaker is still very quiet.
What methods are there of adding more "loudness" to our external speaker after we've rooted?
Post your personal experience if possible..
Thanks!
Imho none, besides using external speakers. Don't forget it's a tiny lil speaker, what you expect from it?

Yep, it's definitely a small speaker. I've heard more (at least louder) come from comparable units. So it's an understandable expectation.
Thanks for the reply! Apparently the DSP Manager is broken when used on most new ROMs so hopefully that comes back to life.
Any other thoughts/suggestions appreciated.

Boost the sounds with a pc application and copy them back to your SD (soundforge comes to mind)

Yeah that would work with ringtones and notification tones well but wouldn't do much for media volumes. Especially when you're streaming.
Leedroid gingerbread Rom is louder quite a bit. Could always backup and try it. I can't go back to froyo even tho it will do more for me with custom kernel because I can actually hear my phone ring now.

Sad, but true. However the Desire and Desire Z do have some impressive volume levels.
HTC have fixed the volume issues with the latest ota update for those on stock. My hdh is now very loud.

Isn't that just the audio fix for the tinny sound coming through the internal speaker while on the phone?
Yes sorry you are right. Its just the internal speaker. I have tried volume booster from market and that works very good to increase volume level, but only with earphones plugged in.

In "Call Settings" you'll find a box for "Hearing Aids", check and enable this setting and you'll notice a slight increase in the volume.
Hope it helps,

I'm running cm7 nightly 36.I looked again but didn't see the option.I think only the sense roms have it.thx though.

Yeah I've noticed that the in call volume us a little low for me too. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
I am surprised at the lack of information and help on the net for this issue. The in-call volume, and the speakerphone, are very quiet. Forget the radio and driving with the windows down, a moderate breeze is enough... I press the phone hard against my ear and still don't catch everything.
I've used CM's DSP manager to boost the speaker signal, and this isn't enough.
Even with full volume & the DSP boost, there is very little crackle. It's as if the speaker is barely utilized.
I haven't met anyone else with an Aria, but every other Android phone I've seen works perfectly fine as, you know, a phone.
I've never found anything for cm that raised the volume to the level I'd like.however drowning child ported 2 different sense roms that actually have pretty good volume.better than stock or cm.
