[Q] Nexus 7 bluetooth support apt-x?

anyone know?

Sorry for the old bump, but I've googled this and can't find an answer. This is the only thread that shows up, so i figured it was better to bump than start a new one.
Few months have passed now since the launch of the Nexus 7, so can anyone answer this question yet?
Also, as I understand it, aptX is effectively a codec, presumably integrated into the bluetooth drivers. Thus, even if not supported already, is it an option in the future with a bit of hacking?
Cheers

As is Nexus 7 doesn't support apt-x. I would love to see it in future updates or be able to at least get it some other way.
Using it with Creative WP-350 Headset at the moment, stock bluetooth provides nice sound quality so I can only imagine
how good would it be with apt-x running.
There's two problems I cant figure a fix for - noticeable delay in sound - in gaming very annoying, so that's one
cause I managed to get Mx Player play movies OK, no delay - while using H/W decoder (not the "+" one)
But the second thing is and its probably connected to the delay issue - when using the tablet - no music in the background - I can hear the headphones switching, when the sound is comming and going. Lets say I select any of the apps, or select touch one of the options, when I`m
about to hear the standard selection action sound, I'll hear the headphones switch on,I can hear static. play the sound and switch off again - no static.
All this with less than a second delay witch probably is the reason for even noticing the damn thing
Getting the Apt-X support and fixing the sound playback delay would be vital for my personal Full enjoyment of the Nexus.
well... maybe I'm forgetting to moan about partial existence of Play Store and Google Wallet in Europe (Ireland in my case)
thereof lack of 25 USD bonus with the purchase, and no access to the Free Transformers film
but that's for different thread

I'm in Europe too (Italy) but is possible to get the 25$ play store bonus using a vpn while registering your device,i red a guide somewhere here in xda to do this and it worked perfectly
Anyway I'd love to have apt-x codec support for nexus 7 and the audio delay through bluetotooth fix.. I hope somebody will figure out how to do this.

New Nexus 7.2 with APT-X?
Does the new Nexus 7.2 support APT-X. codex.
APT-X is bluetooth that send music in CD qualify wireless.
All new high - end smartphones like HTC ONE and Samsung G3 and G4 have it, and together with a APT-X dongle (like QUE uPlay puck) connected to a amplifier or bluetooth speaker with built-in APT-X (like Klipch or Loeve2go) The sound is really great to listen to!
Nexus 7.2 is a low - budget tablet and there is no clue in tecnical spec. about APT-X . Does it support APT-X?

I tryed to hack this but with no luck i found how to modify bluez lib to be able to work with libbt-aptx but i do not have lib compiled for nexus 7. APT-X is a purly software decoder for audio and if your bt head set suport it then it is possible if some one can povide lib for nexus 7. And of cause this will be ileagal because CSR has contracts only with HTC and SAMSUNG

Nexus 7 apt-x transmission
Will hooking the nexus to an apt-x transmitter (eg: creative usb BT-D1) via an OTG cable help?

[Q] Galaxy S-IV (S4) confirmation for AptX audio

Hello,
As the title says , is there anyone who can please guide me for the following queries :
1. Does international Samsung Galaxy S-IV supports AptX audio compression for bluetooth audio streaming. I am a bit confused, although it is listed on the AptX website as a complaint device smartphone, some other places list only Galaxy S-IV Active as the complaint device. Would be nice to know which model variants of S4 support the aptx.
2. Would be nice to know about how to confirm that it supports Bluetooth audio aptX (any terminal or ADB command ? ), will this command even output the presence of aptX , even if the mobile is not paired to an aptX complaint device and actively streaming the audio. I am asking since I dont have an AptX enables bluetooth headphone or speaker at the moment, although I am researching prior to buying one.
3. If connected to an aptX complaint device , do we have to use the stock android ROM Music or Media player to get the benefit of aptX audio streaming. Or we can use any media player of our choice (like MX Player, Wondershare or even the ported Sony Walkman App) while running the stock ROM. I am running the stock WanamLite ROM 4.2.2 and prefer the ported sony walkman app for listening to music.
Would really appreciate the feedback and opinions for the queries, which are not only for me, but would help the community at large.
Thanks for your support.

So many views and not a single guru to advise and answer....surprising at the least....
Keeping the fingers crossed....
Pending my decision to buy aptx enabled Bluetooth headphones...till the queries are answered....hope these may help a lot of others like me.

Same doubt
I hace the same doubt in my case I do hace an aptx enabled headphones but I dont know if the feature is being used

I used S4 with an car adapter from htc and if i remember well the color from the led was different for the aptx/nonaptx. From what i know/remeber S4 has aptx.

What bluetooth codec is the best ?

Hi,
I've the OP5 128 GB, in the setting and advanced, we have an option Bluetooth audio codec. In this step we have 3 codec we can try :
* aptX HD
*aptX
*SBC
By default, SBC is select, but do you have try others ? what's the best ?
Sometime, i loose the bluetooth connection in my car and i must to off/on the connection.
Thank you.

When this was brought up before: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/help/whats-to-aptx-hd-aptx-sbc-bluetooth-t3627794
tl;dr set it to aptX HD and hope it falls back gracefully when not supported. No idea why it wasn't set as default...
I don't think the Bluetooth connection issue with your car has anything to do with the codec. Mine has trouble connecting every time regardless of what is picked. It is really frustrating, so hopefully it'll improve with a future update...

Depends on which codec your headphones supports of headphones supports aptxx

If your device supports Aptx (like some High-Rez Audio headseats), go for it .
If not select SBC
Aptx HD in only for Bluetooth 5.0 devices (actually no headsets or car audio system are available on the market with this feature)

Why not just select aptX[ HD] and let the devices negotiate down if it's unsupported?

Hmm my Sony XB650BT seems to connect using aptx hd. It doesn't appear to step down, but maybe it's playing aptx but still on aptx hd? The headset lists that it is aptx.

Unfortunately no because most of the time the AD2P protocol will choose SBC as the default codec if the codec you chose (aptx or aptx hd) is not compatible/available

As far as I know this is true and matches my experiences bouncing between aptX in my car and my non aptx Bose qc 25..

AptX implementation on ZE552KL and chip support

Hi everyone,
Android O brings bluetooth audio codec option that includes AptX. Does 625 actually support AptX? Is there a way to verify this? I have an AptX ready headset, it isn't fancy by any means, but I intend to make use of the feature. It's probably gimmicky but let's give it a shot.

This is screenshot of connected devices in action.

@sanctitude:
Which app does the notification about runnig "BT aptx codec" on your screen shot come from? How can i show that on my device?

You can find it on developer option, scroll down to bluetooth section where you can select your codec

Thanks, santitude!
I know about the "developer option" for the general setting of apt-x for BT but this is not the same thing as your screen shot.
Your screen-shot above is apparently a notification about the "running" codec, being actually used at the moment of playing music through BT.
On my device on LOS 15.1 i do not see a notification as on your screen shot, but this is exactly what i'm looking for.

I'm on stock Oreo, the notification just showed up during playback using aptX headset, it's probably OS related or behaviour. Anyone using LOS, please clarify

Does M3 support LDAC?

in Developer settings you can choose LDAC and Aptx HD, but when you connect headphones they only use Aptx. why? Software problem?

Or the headphones only can work on aptx.

How is your Bluetooth range? I recently just tried it on my Bt speaker/headphones and the range is bad. If I put it in my pocket or cover my phone with my hand, the music gets choppy right away even if I'm right next to the headphones. Also, I can't even get my bt smart lock to work with it, it just doesn't connect.

try with another player? like poweramp ?
