[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.
Regards,
Soumen

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

It can be used with any music app that uses android's stock codecs. If you use music applications such as poweramp (that rely on ffmpeg) you wont be able to use srs wow hd effects, unless the dev makes it happen

I'm using dzo's Oxygen based Gingerbread ROM for the phone. I cant seem to be able to find them in the stock music player in that. Is it only available in the stock ROM?

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..

You have to start to play a song, then you will see the equalizer settings

guys! are you using oxygen rom?
if not, pls stop giving false tips!
the oxygen rom's default music app does not have equaliser option..
pls do not give advice based on things you are not using!

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?

I agree that first thing :/
And what comes for that second thing, I've been trying to find solution... still with no luck

yes, its a shame, but i mostly use the srs wow pre equalizer

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.

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.

Isn't voodoo integrated into DSp manager?

Congrats on posting and still not answering the question.
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 tried the instructions on the following link:
http://highonandroid.com/android-apps/viper4android-app-for-rooted-android-best-audio-app/
Skip down to step 9. I changed those prop lines and it seems to be working well with the Samsung music player contrary to what is said on that link. I check the driver status while playing music through the Samsung player and it says "Processing: Yes". I use Playback Gain Control and Convolver. Those setting are definitely working.
I am using Viper4Android 2.3.1.3 with M919 running JB 4.3.

Im using it without any build.prop.Works on every music player even stock

Well someone might need a solution just like me because I searched and found this post yesterday. Well this is how I have managed today with a simple solution. Just force stop Sound assistant and if possible hide it. Go back to v4a, turn off Master limiter, go to it's settings and turn on and off and on again the legacy mode. Then go back to Master limiter and turn it back on. This worked for my Galaxy s7 edge running Floyd Q rom. Hope this helps someone also 10 years from now

try another music player from playstore n turn off its equalizer or fx so it can use your dsp music fx ..... ex. best music player.apk

By mistake i uninstalled music fx in grand 2..how to get my music fx again?

if you are on stock or custom rom in both cases you have to reinstall the firmware or rom again. however, you can try copying the apk again to /system/app folder, but i guess it will not work.

Improve Audio?

The one thing that I really dislike on the LG G6 (LG-LS993) is the audio. It has a "tinny" sound. Is anyone aware of any way to improve that? I'm thinking of software solutions. I know I can use my ear buds or my Blue-Tooth speaker system but there are times when that isn't practical; such as showing a video to someone else. Thanks.

Have you tried : jetAudio HD Music Player or VLC Player???

If all of your music is downloaded into your phone into the file system there is an app called Poweramp in the Play Store..... It is amazing it's three bucks but you can have a three-week trial I have found it has Soothed me from not being able to have viper audio being that we are stuck without root. The only downfall is this EQ and music player system is for everything in your library or file system but the tweaks are great and it's full of features..... I just returned my G6 for a v30 plus it works on both.
We may be in the same boat I want something that works with YouTube and Google play music

I lied I just got it working with Google Play Music there's a ton of settings in it and it's sounding amazing you should try it out it's a free trial I attached a picture of what it looks like that way you don't have to pay if you don't like it but my car has garbage speakers and it really helps my Bluetooth Loud areas
There are game settings in the menu you can hike up and then the 7-band EQ the first bar all the way to the left is actually pre app control not EQ lol!
If you try it out and have any questions hit me up but I think this app works great I'm going to try and get it going with you tube. And if you like Last FM there is special settings for that app by itself

If you're a fan of Google Play music only I found this version of Dolby Digital just download and install it but do not open the app reboot your phone and install Google Play Music if Google play music is already installed then after you go through the reboot open Google Play Music go to the menu settings hit refresh then scroll down for equalizer and the Dolby app will open right up.....quite a few settings in it

Thank you for your suggestions. I tried VLC Player and it sounded pretty good but it kept losing my music. The music was still there but I had to keep pointing to the location. Anyway, I'm trying out Rocket Player right now.

Thank you for all your wonderful suggestions. Prior to seeing your post I tried VLC Player and it sounded pretty good but it kept losing my music. The music was still there but I had to keep pointing to the location. I'm trying out Rocket Player right now and it seems to work well. I'll probably check out Poweramp soon.
