[Q] need help choosing a rom/kernel - Nexus S General

ok so i need a new rom, currently having various annoying little issues with cyanogenmod9. these include high battery drain, laggy cm9music (music plays fine, scrolling music WHILE listening to music however is super slow) (i have all album art, although this only affects this player) "unfortunately music/settings has stopped working" and also random reboots while listening to music.
so either a) does anyone know how to fix these?
or b) can anyone suggest a good rom? im looking for something that does exactly the stuff cm9 did (i particularly loved the dsp feature) but without bugs.
ps. i tried miui music player, but couldnt figure out how to connect dsp to it

Try Bugless Beast. It is simply bugless and stable.

+1 on Bugless Beast if you like 'stockish' ROM.
Regarding music app, you could try PowerAMP, it's free with limited features.
Anyway I can say that's it's really worth it to purchase the full version.
It supports many audio files.
You could also flash a custom kernel that has voodoo sound installed.
Combine it with PowerAMP and you'll get similar & comparable quality with CM Music app + DSP Manager.
AFAIK, CM Music is still in BETA, and that explains those FCs you're getting.
I myself has been using Bugless Beast + Air kernel (with Voodoo Sound of course) and never had random reboots.
Listening to music is very decent using this combination.

My favorite ICS ROM is Codename android 1.4 with Matr1x kernel. It's been super fast for me, and everything works. I haven't had a single issue with it!

Have you tried clearing Music Data? Fixing permissions on CWM?
I've been on nuhetri v3.0.1 and it has been working pretty good as of now. Haven't tried with different kernels, but they say it's working excelente with Air kernel.

It sounds like your problem is just CM9 Music. Just don't use it. There are many other music players you could use, such as Google Music from the Market.
And you don't have to "connect" DSP to anything. The settings should apply to any sound that comes our of your device.

Are you using cm9 with the stock kernel? If not, try it again with the stock kernel. Or as others have stated, bugless beast with the stock kernel. My personal experience has been that most every highly modded third party kernel causes some kind of instability. Just my $.02. Ymmv.

Well that's weird. I once used CM and PowerAMP just didn't get any improvements from DSP Manager.
I've tried listening carefully but it seems that DSP Manager only works with CM Music app.
That's why my choice is PowerAMP + Voodoo.

I use Subsonic myself and DSP definitely works with it. I can't speak for Poweramp, I personally think it's a terrible app.

wow thanks for the responses guys and yeah ive tried using dsp with music players, but it only seems to work with the apps that cm assigns it to. ive been googling how to assign it but it requires root access, which (problematic) i dont have as my superuser app seems to have corrupted itself (which i can fix)
anyway all that crap aside, im on cyanogenmod7 now. i love it, but it just isnt... ICS. so basically what ill try now is probably bugless beast (after i reflash superuser) then ill flash dsp and see if that works.

[Q] Why there are lags during playing mp3

I have tested 3 different roms, but all of them have a problem: when my vibrant plays some of mp3 files, there are lags during playing. It is just like a sudden pause with wired sounds during the mp3 is playing, but only some of the mp3 files have this problem, others are normally played. I have posted this on other forum and many people says they have the same problem with me.
Have anyone know how to solve this problem?
I'm having that to since I switched to 2.2 roms. I've only been using obsidian so I can't speak from experience using them but I get random pauses while listening to music. The song is still playing but there's no sound for a few seconds.
You're not alone... lol

I have tested eugene's unofficial rom, obsidian, the new Jk6, but all of them have this kind of problem, I found a few threads discussing this problem, I tried deleting wigets on screen and killing apps, but don't work................maybe this is a feature of 2.2 ?
I have not noticed this? I'll try and play MP3's all during lunch.... anything I need to do to try and recreate, or just play a few songs?
This problem has often been attributed to the stock music player. Discontinue it's use and see if the problem continues. There are a plethora of suitable media player replacements in the Market (free & paid). Search these forums if you'd prefer some suggestions as they're plentiful.
I've noticed that jk6 is better in this regard. It's not widgets; in the past it's been most noticeable when changing connectivity, I.e. turning on wifi.

[Q] Srs wow hd?

Hi everyone,
The phone's spec sheet says that it has SRS wow hd. Any idea how I can use it? To clarify, what I'm looking for is something like the control center application which typically comes with the srs stuff. It allows the user to set various parameters of the srs algorithm. Any help would be great.

currently it can only be accessed via the stock music app and while playing a song..

I'm not using oxygen atm (will flash it later this day), but they should be located under the equalizer presets in the stock music app.
Okay, Im pretty sure the ROM did something to the music player. The player now shows only 4 Tabs - Artists, Albums, Songs, and Playlists. Cant seem to find Equalizer settings anywhere among the options on those screens. On my previous phone(galaxy fit), the equalizer settings used to come somewhere there. Any other music players that support this feature?
the music app in oxygen rom does not have the equaliser feature..

Install the latest version of PlayerPro (2.09). There is an option there to enable the SRS WOW HD effects. Just tested it on MIUI rom.
Can SRS WOW be activated in the official 2.3 (28.12.2011) firmware?
In the settings of the stock music app the equalizer option is inactive.
2.3.5 official, yes I'm using it now.

That's good news!
I'm using 2.3.5 official. However, in the stock music app when I go to Settings I can see an Equalizer option, but pressing it has no effect. Is this the only way to get to the SRS option and if so why might it not be working for me?
Had to register, been stalking this forum over a year...
Anyway, with this new android 2.3.5, you can't change equalizer without headphones. And when you take your headphones off, equalizer turns back to normal. And that is a big loss for those who listens to music from backspeaker. You can't have SRSWowHD if you're using the backspeaker (with that erm, stock player? Can it even be said as stock player?)
That's annoying. SRSWowHd worked really well with the speaker in 2.2.
Would Huawei have deliberately disabled adjusting the equaliser in 2.3.5? Could a third-party app re-enable it?

DSPManager and Voodoo on CM10

As much as I like how nice Android 4.+ looks, I'm still running CM7 because I can't seem to get the sound I want on CM10.
Just now, I think I found out the reason why.
FYI, JetAudio is my music player. I like it a lot and would never leave it since it has everything I want: folder playback and reverb.
On CM7, I'm using the combo JetAudio SFX + DSP settings + Voodoo.
On CM10, DSP settings + Voodoo only seem to work on Apollo. Maybe because other apps think DSP is Apollo's EQ instead of a standalone app.
At first, I thought it was JetAudio's problem, but it's the same for RockPlayer and BSPlayer.
Please some devs look into it.
Or is that how you guys want to implement it?
Why do you bother with dspmanager if you have Voodoo ? I always delete it at flash, so the Voodoo is used + players EQ. Too many EQ's doesn't make sense trying to set them up properly, like 3 people trying to drive the bus.
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk 2
I also rock both voodoo and DSP, but I usually disable any of its functions when the similar function is enabled in the other app. Example, I usually have bass booster enabled in voodoo and disabled in DSP. Also, I find voodoo crucial for its Smart Amplifier since I find that the sound on my headset is too low for my liking, while the DSP equalizer is quite useful when I want to tweak my sounds. If given the choice though, I'd prefer using the MusicFX apk from stock android, since I find that it works best with voodoo sound.

I'm using AOSP and manually flashed DSP manager bzw. voodoo sound. It's a great combo that simply gives more options.
Using the first flahsable zip suggested here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1891017 you may try the beats v3 one if you want to.
Yes, I'm using CM9 DSP manager in jelly bean, it's compatible.

If you read properly, you can see he already has DSP installed on his CM10 setup (surprise surprise, it comes with it!), just that it doesn't seem to engage properly when using any other player than Apollo.
OP, reading DSP manager help:
"DSP Manager is per-output audio adjustment application.....
The manager can only enable it for applications which are compliant with android's audio effects specification, i.e. most music players."
That means players with their own EQ in CM9/10 won't be working. Google Music will work, so will Apollo. It's an Android limitation I believe that was introduced with ICS.
So, that's not a solution for your problem sadly, but rather an explanation. Cheers.

Fine. But what do Apollo and Google Music have in common? They are system apps. Try migrating your music player to the system partition using Titanium Backup. My guess is that user applications don't have the right to tap into DSP manager.

And it's a bad guess. It's not because they're system apps, heck you can install Google Play Music and Apollo both directly from the market without having them installed previously. It's a limitation that is caused by changes since Android 4.0.1. It would be pretty nice if it was that easy.
For what its worth, PowerAMP now supports DSP Manager, see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37836540&postcount=12

I switch between Neutron and Poweramp. Neutron has arguably the best audio quality of all the players on the market, but the UI leaves a lot to be desired. Poweramp, while not as good as Neutron in terms of audio quality, provides probably the best balance in terms of sound and UI.
I use PowerAmp, as it has a great interface, lots of features, and varied widget options. Haven't felt a need to switch from it yet.
I using MyPlayer because ir have a different but useful way forma making playlists.

Are you referring to Google Play Music? If so, it is my go to when I want to play one of the 11K songs on my desktop, especially since Audiogalaxy abandoned me again.
As far as an offline player, Nexmusic is my current favorite and believe me, I tried just about them all. It has most or more of the great features that the big boys (e.g., PlayerPro, Poweramp) have and it's free. Although PlayerPro is pretty nice if you don't mind the price.
I've been enjoying the N7player on an S4 Active very much.
Coming from Neutron player on a galaxy S2 and wanted to try something different.
The equalizer isn't the best (Neutron's was very detailed, so I got spoiled), but there are better exclusive apps just for that and the built in has many presets and effects.
Easy to use and browse music
playlist creation comes quicker than most with lots of longpress options
album art is presented well
lock screen interface is a nice treat
simple, minimalistic and dark
So for the people who use poweramp and neutron, how different is the sound quality on both players? I currently use poweramp. Also most of my music is in FLAC. Would I benefit more from neutron?
Nexmusic, it does what i need it to do and it does it very well :good:
Anybody tried Rocket Music Player before? It's awesome, you can attach special presets to each and every song and can also upgrade to a 10-band equalizer from 5 bands. It's UI is also beautiful and customizable thanks to themes. I personally use the Light Blue theme thanks to my exposure from using Apollo

Ive always used Poweramp. Why? It was one of only a couple of players with a built in equalizer when it came out. I paid for it so I just kept using it
Lately though Ive been all about the Google Play Music app. Cant beat having my entire music library there without using up all my phones storage. The interface is actually really really nice and easy to navigate. Built in equalizer is nice too. Its definitely my go to player since they updated the interface. Not to mention the All Access feature now. A little pricet at $8/mo but I'm enjoying the trial I finally activated.
I use Apollo built into CM10.1. Basic, works for me. I absolutely hate Google Music. Even with music on my SD card, and not allowing it to sign in to my account somehow it managed to show up in Data Usage as using 500mb+ of my data plan. Never again. It's disabled now.

I use it along with ViPER4AndroidFX and ViPER4AndroidXHiFi MOD, if you have not tried this, you are missing out. Blows out everything of the water. I've never heard earphones sound so good. Even if you prefer another player, use this FX Mod, you will be amazed at the difference this makes.
EDIT: Just to clarify a bit more. ViPER4AndroidFX/XHiFi is an Audio FX app a bit like Equalizer, Music FX, Beats Audio?, etc... they improve audio effects coming out of the phone - globally, across all apps. It is not a music player.

[Q] Viper 4 android not working?

Hey guys! I have a Galaxy S4 on 4.2.2 that i have rooted and used TrulyClean v1.6 (Hardcore version) on!

I found out that the same issue I had with the beats eq mod I had with viper4android too.
Whenever I listen to songs in Google Music I cant just change tracks because when the next
track is playing there are no FX at all, just the stock sound! sometimes i gotta let a song repeat 2-3
times before this happens, it is REALLY frustrating and annoying!
I dont know if it's because I have to delete music FX or get another music player,
Whatever it is I know i'd appreciate some help!

I have a similar problem with the Allview V1 Viper(a.k.a. Gionee Elife E3/Blu Life Play). I have a custom ROM, Xperia 4.2.2 made by Orochi, and it came with V4A preinstalled. I set everything, I launch walkman, and start a song. For 10 secs, the sound is great, the effects definitely work, then it reverts to stock...
What can I do?
Deezer and Viper4Android
Well, I have a Samsung I9082L and a Xperia C2304, but I'm facing problems with Deezer when using Viper to enhance my Xperia sound. I don't know if it happens with all Xperia phones, but Deezer uses my Xperia audio enhancer as default. I discovered that Xperia audio enhancer and Viper4Android conflict when using Deezer. So I tried disabling Sony audio enhancer (SoundEnhancement.apk) and it happens that I was right... now Viper works as a charm for my Xperia. So, for the people who are having problems using Deezer or Spotify, verify if Deezer uses phone's audio enhancer as default and try disabling it. Do not uninstall it! Just disable at the application options or, if not available, freezing with Link2SD or TitaniumBackup. Hope it helps.
