Sorry guys if this is a duplicate but could not fine anything about audio quality.
Iam gonna buy this awesome device but just curious to know from u guys the audio quality for music from headphones (stock or other)
Also i have heard that the loud speaker is quite low. Now how weak would that be. Will it be not able to wake me up when the alarm rings??
Last question irrelevant to the thread title. My ISP in India is Sify. Now they have rpm and non-rpm (sh) based linux dialer. Will any of these work. There is also a free java based dailer with .jar extension where in i pass info like
sify.jar -u xxxxx -p xxxxxx from a batch file in windows.
. which would be the best java emulator to use in Andriod and how? Guys iam new to andriod. Thanks in advance.
actually the loudspeaker is quite load.. louder than my nexus one.. and with audiobooks and music you can get distortion..
plenty loud enough for ringtones etc.
Stunning!
Although I did have a 3rd party headphone buzzing problem that's gone away now......very strange.
The audio quality is absolutly amazing in my opinion. The headphones are very good and i also like the 5.1 option the musicplayer offers. (Sounds like sitting in the middle of the stage)
Via headphones the SQ is indeed excellent, check GSMarena's review - they use objective measures of SQ and the Galaxy S is essentially perfect.
Loudspeaker is tons better than HTCs offerings, I find it outputs quite a nice sound, definitely loud enough for alert/calls/alarms.
Thanks a lot to all of you who took time to answer it.
I have to agree. Speakers are awesome. Also, the amount of native audio codec that the phone supports is nothing short of amazing.
Samsung incorporated their mDNSe (mobile Digital Natural Sound engine) chip inside this phone (its the same audio decoding chip used in their home theater and HD LCD TV's except its a mobile version). It supports 5.1 SRS sound too.
i know this issue has been discussed for a while,
but is there any update?
sound quality is bad, and low.
is there some mod to overcome this issue?
success stories?
A favorite of mine is Volume+ (Sound Boost).
It is Gingerbread only and really does improve the audio.
Try the free version first here but the full version does have a lot more to offer.
Full Version includes:
* +8 in all settings (Free goes to +4)
* 9 EQ presets (Free has 1)
* Advanced Settings - gives you complete EQ control: you can control each EQ band independently. (NOT INCLUDED IN FREE VERSION)
Only had my GS2 for 3 days, but I love the sound quality, especially in the headphones with my custom EQ settings. Voice calls are loud enough as well.
I never have any problems with sound quality but this thread made it even better.

Would you care to broaden your opinion on the HS3000, I am interested in purchasing a set of these myself.
Sound would seem to have improved on KI3.

well i tried the DSP manager tutorial, but actually it fixes audio of other music players to become as the stock music player.
so no improvements,
i will try th audio boost and equl. settings
AudioBoost SGS2 doesnt install ALSA

Again I have to say ~ try Volume+ (Sound Boost).
The free version Volume+ FREE is limited but will give you an idea of what it can do.
Some people are saying XXKI3 brings sound improvement.

its actually gone so much louder and clearer i now have to put the sound down to 12-13 for comfortable hearing. awsome stuff.
i found that player pro (headphones setting)+ Equalizer app pumps my denon ah-d1100's well so as my yuin pk2's
i go with anything stock will be much better i guess
btw, a new firmware is available now
I9100CEKI2
does this one also features sound improvements?
because 2.3.5 isnt official
Looking forward to the audio improvements in 2.3.5.
slight improvement, but better.
but still :S
and btw 5.1 Sound in Music Player is pure bull-crap
I have a Nexus 4 and I don't have a matching headset. I did not buy the Google Play Store headset because I do not like plugin earphones. I tried the headset that comes with iPhone 4S and it works, however during calls the mic volume is very low, while the earphone volume is just unbearably loud. Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem?
I assume this has something to do with impedance. Again, however, I cannot find this key information in Nexus 4's specification or the Google Play Store headset's. This can also be compatibility or software issue. But I read somewhere on the internet that unfortunately the mic volume and the earphone volume are not separately adjustable on Nexus 4. If that's not the case, please give me a guide as to how to do it. I am running factory 4.4 rom, rooted and GravityBox installed. If it has something to do with compatibility and/or impedance, please recommend a model (with mic) that works best with Nexus 4 which is not plugin when it comes to earphones. In terms of sound quality, I am not picky. To me, the iPhone headset isn't bad in sound quality. And I'd be totally satisfied if the sound quality is at the same level or close to a Sennheiser MX500.
Thanks!
Hello. Help please. My note 4 sound too deep. Everything in the phone run well. The only problem is the sound. When I play a media with sound or I connect earphone,I can slightly hear a distant sound from phone speaker or earphone but this sound is not enough to understand anything. I flashed more than 5 stock roms but still persisting. What is the problem. I don't think it's hardware issue as earphones emit too law sound too. Waiting...

Proper etiquette aside (hint: don't use speakerphone while doing your "business" in a public bathroom), rate this thread to express how you think the Xiaomi Poco F1's speakerphone performs. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it's loud and it's clear.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Frankly, I'm disappointed by speakerphone
I can barely here what the other person is saying if I'm in noisy room.
Btw, it's just the call output through speakerphone that I'm unimpressed with, songs play pretty loud through speaker. One more thing I'd like to mention is, system ringtones sound louder than local files set as ringtones. This doesn't mean their sound is inadequate, it's just lower than system ringtones.
Is you facing discord mic issue while using earphone after recent update?
Is you are facing discord mic issue while using earphone after recent update of Miui 9.6.18.0
i am facinf 2 issues mainly
1- sound via pubg game is very unclear and broken and ofcourse very low after update while using earphone.
2-Mic is not working only with discord while using earphone its working fine with other applications.
Note- Earphone is not broken and i also tried other earphone same earphone working fine while calls and other stuff except this two.
Thanks.

The way the stereo speaker setup is implemented is so poor. For a stereo audio, there are two channels, left and right. One comes via the bottom firing speaker and the other comes via the earpiece. Just play a song where stereo content is significantly visible. You'll note that the channel that's played via earpiece is not at all audible, say 10% of the main speaker. It makes like an entire channel is missing. This is so disappointing.
Now, the dev team could do two things.
1) Increase the gain in the earpiece such that it becomes significantly louder. (But there is a risk of damaging the earpiece though)
2) We don't need stereo speakers at all! Disable the earpiece speaker and use just the bottom firing speaker for both right and left channels. (This is somewhat practical I guess)
Hope the stereo speaker issue is resolved soon.

Tried it and it uses both speakers anyway and audio is better with mono audio setting turned off.

Mono uses both speakers but they don't have any specific channels, ie both will play same mono audio so your channel issue should've been fixed.

yes. I just felt like the quality is better when in stereo than when in mono.
The earpiece is very unclear unlike Samsung which the earpiece is very clear.
The sound is very good, i don't know why people doesn't like it. The sound is strong and well balanced.
Don't imagine you will get a premium hi-fi audio quality with a smartphone
Audio in STEREO mode CAUSES serious issues (not only in FM Radio)
The FM Radio have issue which PREVENT the using the radio! :crying: The volume drops down up to be absolutely silent every ~10-12 seconds.
But not only the FM Radio suffers, the NEUTRON player too.
The problems exists only when the MIUI plays\operate with audio in STEREO mode. If you set audio to be MONO (System&Device --> Additional settings --> Accessibility --> AUDIO & ON-SCREEN-TEXT --> Mono audio) then the radio will not silent periodically.
Please tell this to the developers!
(The Neutron player have the issues when plugging the headphones - it stops to play streamed audio and not play it after the player restarts only once, but start to play the streams after two restarts only.
An addition issue when Neutron player used: when 3.5 plug disconnected, then the Pocophone plays short part of streamed audio after ~0.5 sec delay and then it can not be used without two restarts of the player.
The Neutron player work well when the MIUI converts (as this was described before) the audio to MONO)
NOTE:The issue with STEREO MODE AUDIO is manifesting on the genuine Pocophone Device which is managed by the LAST OFFICIAL GLOBAL MIUI ROM 10.2.3.0, as all this is stated on the following Screenshot:

Speaker Crackling
Since past 2-3 days my device POCO F1 showed up the loudspeaker Crackling issue.
Whenever I play some music the Crackling sounds occurs and when the device is on Silent mode, low crackling sound also occurs when I lock/unlock the screen, when app notification comes up, etc. Is it a hardware issue??
disappointed by the stereo speakers as the one of them used while calling is not loud ..... sound looks missing that extra punch compared to my late LG v20, and of course the microphone and noise cancelling is absolutely terrible on this phone especially when its on speaker mode in calls ( phone calls, duo calls, messenger telegram and whatsapp calls are have the same $hitty problem with echo and loud voices )
