Getting good sound - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since Oneplus removed the built in equalizer, I've been left with bad sound with all my earphones and my headset, it just sounds so bad and tinny. Has anyone else had this problem, and anyone know a good equalizer app/fix? Thanks

PowerAmp got Equalizer integrated

HT820 Problems

I just got my HT820 tonight and I am experiencing some sound problems.
The bass sounds fine. However, high pitched sounds is terrible. It is distorted and awful.
There is this ringing sound whenever there is a high pitch sound.
Anyway to fix this?
I saw a posting about some RegEditing but I can't figure it out because the last two registry entries don't show up on my Wizard.
Try a program with an equalizer so u can lower the treble like gs player
Well, that is a good temp fix, but it is painful to listen to people on the phone using the headphones and it would be great to actually hear sounds other than bass.
Any other solutions?
I have moto HT820, the only thing I don't like is mid, it sounds like putting a cup on the ear (hollow sound)
if not, I like this headphones well
now I have plantronics 590a, the sound had been distorted first, but it's gone after couple of weeks of listening, it appears the headphones needs to be "cooked", with Koss KTX6 earpads, the sound is pretty good, esp on treble side, clear and detailed
I am waiting for Logi bt headset, the audio unit will not be used (I don't have ipod), I heard the headset, the sound is pretty good too (not good as plantronics, however), it's said the headband is pretty fragile (I doubt the manufacturer used wrong plastic, it should be made from PE+ABS)
The sound in my HT820 sounds almost like I am listening to a low quality mp3.
There is distortion at certain pitches.

Any way to improve the sound??

Is there any way to improve the sound on the loudspeaker of the device??
I used to have a Blueangel before and I used to have a program that could adjust the bass and treble of the speaker.
Its just that music sounds aweful through the speaker, its so 'tinny' hardly any bass and the speaker ressonates like **** on loudest because there is so much treble.
Perhaps someone knows of some registry settings I could play with??
Maybe i'm being fussy as I used to have an A1000 also (vibe sync is goooood!!)
Cheers
S.K.
I have noticed that if you have the speaker up loud it makes the sound go weird. A fix would be great.

Bassless audio player sound in HTC diamond

Did you guys notice that the sound quality in htc audio output when we listen to music is almost without the bass even with bass boost or audio booster,at first i thought that it was due to lack of good audio player so i tried Pocket tunes and coreplayer but both didn't give any improvement ,its like you are listening to music with the twitter and without the bass,i tried increasing the audio quality but in vain ..its like almost horrible when it comes to audio music but pocket tunes and coreplayer in palmOS treo sounds very good with the volumes care software and even without it,the bass that it gives is almost like live..Then again I thought that it was the headset that is giving me the problem but when I listen to FM radio the sound quality is just superb so obviously its not the headset or the hardware but the audio codec that are used in the music player so I thought it will be better if there were a software like Volume care for Diamond ..i think that will do the trick.I will very thankful if any one can suggest me a way to improve the bad bassless sound quality either by enhancing software or another music player
DId you try adjusting the equalizer in the other audio software?
Are you referring to the old audio player bug where you would hear no bass at all when headphones were plugged in whilst audio booser was enabled?
Funny you should mention the FM radio sound being superb as I struggle to hear anything as the volume is too low
Yes I have tried the equalizer with full bass boost and custom mode and even volume boost feature available in pocket tunes ..there is a huge difference in FM Radio sound quality and the audio player sound quality,former gives the live like sound quality and latter is like i said its listening to twitter despite the fact that the ear piece is HTC original from the box and another thing ..don't you have the same problem?? or is it my HTC only..have you notice the FM radio and audio player sound difference..in FM radio the drum and the bass are thumping sound and very good but in audio player the drum sounds like a distance can cover banging and no bass at all(in the ear piece).

By old audio player bug means what?i don't understand.. Is there a new audio player upgrade available..if their is a new audio upgrade which solve these problems then can you point me to the right direction..your FM radio sound is too low mine is perfectly OK ..might be due to poor signal..and besides i have mention its not only the internal audio player but coreplayer and pocket tunes 4.1 too
Problem solved Did hardSPL and Radio upgrade but I think it wasn't by this coz it had nothing to do with sound quality ..may be all i needed was a hard reset which was done automatically when hard SPL upgrade was done..thanks to all
Is there a tool to reduce bass ? I have Audio Booster, but people says it has bug...so is there different tool ?
I got coreplayer, but there is no way to reduce bass in equalizer..Thanks

Hi
I've experienced something similar:
Tinny sound (no bass) hard reset everything fine.
Restore my SPB clone (push mail, all my apps) tinny sound again.
Interstingly, calls via the headset are lovely and bassy but any audio application playing files sounds really tinny and quiet.
I suspect the new version of Schapps advanced config myself as it seems to have started around the time I installed it and made my first change of some of the settings.
QUESTION: What settings in Schapps advanced config or Diamond Tweaks might I have missed? Are there any registry keys that I can delete to restore all the sound to default?

"People of Judea, Wome is your fwiend"
there's a work around for this that involves
Plugging in your headphones (vital!)
Closing Windows Media (or any other player)
Going to Audio Booster
Turn off Audio Booster
Start player - sound back to normal (sourced from Modaco)

HD2 Sound Quality (Tones)

I know about the audio booster, but that's just for music (isn't it?). Does anyone else find that ring and message tones sound very shrill and tinny on the HD2? I found an app (Advanced Configuration Tool), which had some sound settings, but didn't seem to do a lot, so I was wondering if there's an app, or a cab somewhere that would 'tone down' the sound, and make it a little 'warmer', if you get what I mean?
Unfortunatly due to it being a tiny mono speaker thats as good as its going to get.
don't expect too much from phone speakers! Just look at the stupid kids walking throught the streets with their cellphones playing their **** music that sounds like crap coming from the tiny speaker. Totally annoying!!
Audio Booster just works when you have connected headphones/speakers via the 3.5mm jack or paired with a bluetooth speaker (I think). Otherwise just turn down the volume a little so it doesn't sound that thin and bad. I always use 2/3 of the max volume and my ringtone mp3s sound ok.
The HD2 mono speaker doesn't come close in terms of sound quality to the Rhodium. It's unfortunate, but I guess HTC couldn't cram another speaker into the HD2. It is pretty darn thin.
Oh well, I guess I'm stuck with it, then. Thanks for the replies.

Bad headphones sound after update to Nougat

Hello all ZF3 owners,
I own ze520kl model and It is just me or sound is terrible after updating to Android 7? I have (almost) no bass sounds, anyone else feels this kind of difference? Equalizer makes a little of difference, but not like previously did on Android 6.0.
2 different set of headphones and 2 different player apps.
Regards,
Dan.
Others reported the same.
Looks like I have to hold on to update my phone.
The Android N update for the Zenfone 3 enables AudioWizard audio processing with wired headphones, meaning that any EQ you have on your phone's speakers will carry over to the headphones. There also may be a bug that activates certain AudioWizard presets on headphones without warning. Either way, you can fix the problem of headphone audio sounding tinny or weird by going into the Sound and Vibration settings menu while your headphones are plugged in, and selecting AudioWizard. Once in AudioWizard, set the preferences to your liking or just select Pure mode if you don't want any EQ or anything like that.
Big thanks, it worked like a charm!
Regards!

Will try that settings. Thanks for the advice. :good::good::good:
Sorry for reviving this old thread. I updated to Nougat the day I got this phone and learned that audio quality is worse than my last phone, even with AudioWizard set to Pure. Will audio sound better with the AudioWizard app and service disabled?

I also found two audio packages, "com.asus.maxxaudio" and "com.asus.maxxaudiowizard" which I can't disable via ADB because I'm not rooted.
