AptX Bluetooth Codec? - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does the Moto X Play support CSR's AptX Bluetooth codec?

Yes it does.
(the screenshot shows it set up an AptX link to my Onkyo Bluetooth adapter for my stereo - note the Vendor ID that shows "APT Licensing Ltd.")

I guess we don't need two threads about the same thing, do we?

[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.

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 [H870DS] - How to verify if AptX or AptX-Hd is working

Hi All,
I have purchased a bluetooth headset recently, which claims to be having AptX (not AptX-HD). I would like to know whether the headset supports AptX codec.
I believe the HiFi icon will be shown only with wired headset and that does not show up with wireless headsets.
I tried catching a logcat via adb, but I wasn't sure how to catch it up from the logs. I tried to change the options in developer settings too. I don't think that's the perfect way to do it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
D
Go into the developer mode and you will see there if the current bluetooth connection is SMB, AptX, AptX-HD or whatever.

According to this topic in the Oneplus forums, it has been down by design. Is there a mod or something that you can do in order to unable it?

No, since otherwise, your headphones wouldn't work. You can't use AptX HD on a headphone that only supports AAC or SBC. If your headphones support both AptX and AAC, the system will let you change that. The same goes for the rest of the settings. Every BT headphone supports the SBC standard, headphones that are Apple branded (AirPods, Beats) and others use AAC and higher priced BT headphones with Qualcomm chips support AptX (HD) and AAC. Higher end Sony headphones use LDAC. All of these support the lowest quality standard SBC. There's absolutely no need to any of these, since it would just break things.

aptX

Anybody know how to enable Qualcomm aptX to work with Bluetooth headphones?
snapdragon 430 does not support aptx codex, even you have aptx library.
maximum codec for bluetooth is aac codec, you need enable this in bluetooth device setting > HD Audio.
