Someone has distilled this for us, with special reference to Marshmallow.
Apparently having root is very important. .....
For starters, every single equalizer app you can download and install without having a rooted phone is basically the same. They all tap into the Android AudioEffects class to use the Equalizer, BassBoost, Virtualizer, PresetReverb and EnvironmentalReverb derived classes to apply audio effects to a specific instance of an audio session, and system-wide effects to the global audio mix are depreciated and no longer work. This means two very important things — the only differences between all these apps are the user interface and features, and that an equalizer app can't control the sound from more than one app at a time.

Enjoy!
I would have to say the best is Noozxoide EIZO-rewire Pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noozxoidelabs.eizo.rewirepro&hl=en that i personally have come across for non rooted phones
Very interesting! Will give it a whirl ....

Hello,
Does anyone know if the audio booster or an equalizer is available for the desire? I had a quick look on the app store and found one but is was quite expensive witness mixed reviews.
thank you for your time

yes please. only one paid app that's overpriced and buggy. something that does EQ as a plugin to Desire's stock music app would be great...

I have a feeling this will be added in FroYo as it's been requested by a lot of people. Best bet is to wait until may 19th and see what 2.2 is like.
That said, I don't want any Equalizer on my phone. Equalizers muddy music and they add distortion.
Has anyone installed this on their note? Which cpu should we select?

Yes, I have it installed, I can't remember the name of the CPU but it's the one on the bottom.

I grabbed the one from the playstore and selected the last option for cpu. I can't remember exactly what it's called but I think it was Cortex A9. I asked around and that's the one everyone else recommended. It's been working great for me by the way.
Yeah, on my S3 & S4 I used the second one from bottom (cortex 8 I think). Wasn't sure if this powerhouse used the same. Guess I'll try it out and see.

cortex a9 with neon. almost 100% positive
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium HD app
A9 with neon is correct, even all the way back to galaxy s2. however, if u are using the most current version of the app, the Xhifi secondary is not needed and the only choice to be made is audio quality, which u'd pick the super audio unless u have battery concerns.
i had know idea a $20 pair of ear buds coud make bass this clear and with such a clear sound stage. highs and mids sound clean, no clipping if set right. I've only been using FLAC files though, i guess i should try some lossy files.
Edit: I should clarify about the XHiFi app. While it's not being developed further, I still use it, it still has it's uses. Dual FIR equalizer, and the documentation mentions the eq in it is higher quality then the main app. My favorite use of it is to use the Lo Contour option to increase the attack and sustain of the low end. instead of thumps its nice rich bass.
Hey guys (and ladies too well all one of you LOL ) Needing some help in regards to finding a specific type of MP3 player ...

was browsing and saw your question
if you are still on the hunt for a music player l would recommend power amp. I have used it for years. You can do a trial and it is very cheap for the full version. Worth a look.
I personally use the Sony Walkman app. I haven't managed to get everything working on it yet namely the visualiser but yeh poweramp as suggested above is a cut above the rest :good:

Go with Power amp mate, it's also worth upgrading after the trial.

I too was for the hunt of the perfect audio player for quite a while. Found that there is no "perfect" one ...but Power Amp is as close as you can get. It really lets you tweak it to a level no other player I used has. Trust me that is THE audio player. You won't regret spending those $4.
Anyone have a recommendation for a music app similar to the stock samsung TW app? I've tried all of the popular ones and they're UI's aren't as simple as the stock samsung. I'm running 4.4.2 and am not able to use that samsung app.
I suggest Poweramp I've used it for the past year. It works well with DSP manager and has a very convenient UI once you get used to it. Its really worth paying for! It offers a trial if you want to try it before buying it.

I am liking the GoneMad player. Have been using Mortplayer, but wanted a change and GoneMad may be it.
Available on Amazon appstore and if you got the free $5 from them it will end up free.
I use poweramp, I got a playstore card pretty much just to buy it. Song fade is really good, the next song starts playing very fast. I wish there was more EQ's in it though..
What's Music Player and/or EQ are you using?
Looking to try new ones.
Power Amp as usual.

Dvc is fixed, hi res output, boost the preamp. For example

Pretty much the regulars like Shuttle+ and Phonograph. I also just use the stock EQ since I don't have crazy good earplugs or headphones, so why bother? I'm also not an audiophile, so yeah. PowerAMP is the solution if you want full control of the audio though.
- PowerAMP/PlayerPRO = If you want full control.
- Shuttle/Phonograph = If you care about design
- Spotify/Google Play Music/Apple Music = If you stream your music
I am just using the htc music app.
