[Question] How to regain excellent audio quality on X Pure? - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear folks,
Currently I have installed custom ROMs on my X Pure to experience Android 7.0 Nougat beforehand.
However, I cannot bear the terrible audio quality my phone offers now. Loudspeakers reduced it original volume down to about 60% compared to stock. And when plugged in a headphone, there was almost no bass to all songs :crying:
It there any way I can regain those things back please? Any help?

It's a current problem with all Nougat ROMs.
There's a fix somewhere in the dev forums. I'll edit in the link once I find it.

Switch back to stock??? You can also try v4a.

I've created a fix

Not sure what kind of volume problems people are having with Nougat ROMS. I'm on CrDroid and I don't have this volume problem. I do have Dolby Atmos installed if that makes any difference. My problem is when using speaker during phone calls, the other person cannot understand me cause it echos.

Question about any of the Audio mods/Kitkat.

I am on Stock KitKat rooted, I've tried Viper and I tried one of the other audio enhancing methods, and none of them seemed to do very much for the audio in terms of making it any louder. Is there a mod out there for my specific model that will make it louder? It's kind of strange, my boyfriends phone is loud as can be when it comes to ringtones and videos but mine is quiet as a mouse. Viper made the audio worse and I'm afraid to try and figure out what numbers work best for the snd_whatever_taiko file.
So basically I'm asking if there's anything I can do at this point?
Edit: If it helps I'm on AT&T, Kitkat with all the latest OTA's.
There is a sound increase mod 1.3 on the development thread... Install both speaker and headphone zips... I did that and my speaker is really loud... For my headphone music I also use viper and turned up the gain completely

[Nova Plus] Low headphones volume with stock Android.

Hi everyone,
Has anyone noticed the headphone volume is low in the stock software? I have compared this to my old Samsung Galaxy 3 and the Nova Plus could use a bit more volume.
I wonder if this is a known issue and if it has been fixed in Lineage OS or the Nougat beta.
PS: I have tried several headphones, earphones
Thanks

[solved] Require a kernel or ROM that can adjust sound gain

I have the Sony MDR-XB950N1 and they sound awesome on an iphone and ipad. But they sound like crap on my android device. I've tried both NucleaROM 7.2.1 and Bliss 6.4, and the sound is too low on both ROMs. Kernel Auditor's sound setting doesn't help at all. I would like to stay away from Viper4Android. I don't need to enhance the sound. I need to be able to adjust the gain or amplify the sound.
I don't get android at all as this has happened to some Bluetooth headphone I've used in the past. But for a USD$300.00 pair otf over-the-ear headphones, this should not happen! It sounds like a pair of headphones you buy at your local 7-eleven. Maybe I should go back to the official firmware?
Interestingly.. i installed CM13 6.01 (Dec 2016) and BT volume is 100x better than the ROMs I mentioned above. This is without the kernel auditor sound mod. I DON'T GET IT.. But at least my earlobes, eardrums, and headphone are vibrating at max volume again. I still would like a solution for Nougat ROM.

You can have a look at here https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z1/themes-apps/apps-to-gain-microphone-volume-t3450390 it's not only for microphone problems
Yea enabling volume level works great with my daily driver, NulceaROM 7.1.x. Thanks for the heads up! Its on par with CM13 and iDevices. I'm not convinced that this issue only happens to our device. I used to have a MI phone and BT volume with nougat was abysmal also.

Horrible distortion on speakers

Hey there
Before changing to an 8.1 rom, i was purely stock and the sound was great. During my time on oreo there was some distortion but it was ok. now that I'm back on stock using the twrp files and keeping bootloader unlocked my sound from the speakers is horrible, it distorts on the middle of the volume bar.
Anyone has the same problem?

Unfortunately not. The sound is now messed up even in stock 7.1.
I'm afraid it's going to be like that for ever
Is this with bluetooth or wired?
If bluetooth, go to developer settings, scroll down and find "Disable absolute volume"
If greyed out, turn it on, see if it helps.

Speaker Issues with Custom ROMs

When I first got the V20, one of the things I was always impressed by was the speaker. It was loud, clear, and it seemed like LG had implemented some sort of volume compression/limiting to keep things clear without clipping or distortion. I rooted the phone about six months ago, finally, and have tried a few custom ROMs. Some amazing work done by the people here, but it seems that the speaker no longer sounds anywhere near as good, and it often crackles and distorts when playing anything just slightly above hearing level. I reflashed the h918 stock mod and all was taken care of, but I don't wanna be stuck with a stock ROM and lose the versatility being rooted brings. Another thing I noticed was that when I send audio messages on Facebook Messenger, they don't record nearly as loud and clear as they do with the stock ROM.
I'm currently using LOS16 with Gamma Kernel (SS).
I was wondering if anyone could maybe figure out what LG did with their speaker (and possibly mic) settings and find a way to implement them somehow with a mod? I'm not sure if this can be done via XML or anything like that. I just hate how all my custom ringtones sound now and having YouTube, my music player, and anything crackle has just taken my enjoyment of these ROMs a notch. Maybe even come up with some similar settings via Viper4Android using the compression tool?
Thanks a lot of any help! :laugh:
