Has anyone gotten AptX to work with their Nexus 6p? I know that Google has not officially added support for AptX to the Nexus 6p within Android Oreo, but they did add this support for the Pixel phones. I also read various articles on how people have been able to enable AptX on developer preview builds of Oreo (for the Nexus 6p) and in some cases within LineageOS. A few weeks ago I tried all the methods listed online, but the information is sparse and it wasn't successful.
1) Has anyone gotten AptX to work within any version of Android on the Nexus 6P?
2) Has anyone been able to flash the necessary blob or drivers to enable AptX within any Rom of Oreo for the Nexus 6p?
If you have this working and could write me a step by step, I'd appreciate it immensely !
I don't have a pair of AptX headphones, otherwise I'd like to test it out, with the new Oreo rom from SuperXE, I remember seeing an option for bluetooth codecs and I saw AptX and AptX HD in the list?
Oreo brings an aptX codec selector option to Developer Settings.
But it does not work on the 6P as there is no aptX codec installed.
I know, because I'm an aptX enthusiast (see my signature) and I just tested it a few minutes ago with my Velodyne aptX headphones.
aptX does not get engaged, so I didn't even bother looking at the logcats since those won't indicate anything without aptX engaging.
I'll probably try hacking aptX into my new/used 6P that I just bought today.
But I don't think it'll work, since recent aptX success stories have all been with Lineage OS 14+ ROM's and I plan to stay with Marshmallow.
But I'll give it a shot over the next week and let ya'll know what I find out.

Yeah, it works fine on my Nougat Resurrection Remix.
Just unzip the attached zip.
Copy the two lib files to /system/vendor/lib
Make them rw-r-r- for permissions.
Reboot and you should be good to go.

I am on RR too so this is cool, after this the headphones just pick up the codec automatically?
edit: would be good to make a flashable zip too.

Yep, just reboot and you're done. aptX compatible receiver devices (such as headphones) will automatically connect via aptX now.
You know, I've had the worst luck trying to create flashable zips.
The last time any of mine worked was on Marshmallow.
I gave up on them. But if someone points me to a working flashable zip that puts items in /system then I'll mod it for aptx.

I have always just taken an existing zip and modded the contents honestly. But this is fine too, not hard to manually add the libs.
@CZ Eddie
How do you know for sure if your phone is using apt-x codec or not when connected to headphones? Is there an app or something that can tell?

My headset flashes blue a certain amount of times (four) if aptX is online.
But you can also run a logcat. Connect to the headset, then play some music (or aptX won't start). Then stop the logcat and ctrl+f it for "aptx".
If you see it mentioned anywhere at all, then it's working. :good:
Sorry for the dumb question but is it possible to push these files via ADB without Magisk?
Lol there's a magisk module I found that works for enabling AptX on the most recent Oreo Build, it was intended for Oreo beta but it works ! I can't find the thread even though I know it's still out there. Credit goes out to them. Just flash with Magisk and connect a pair to see if it works.
Tested this on Nexus6P with Lg tone Pro using AptX.

cbaronne has posted a set of compiled binaries to change the default bitrate of the Bluetooth SBC codec to increase A2DP audio quality on the Nexus 4 over on this thread. It seems that the 2013 Nexus 7 suffers from the same issues, but can also be fixed with the same binaries.
I've very lightly modified itlnstln's update script to work on the Nexus 7 and have tested these files as flashable under TWRP. The binaries in the flo-4.3-BTFix-googledefault.zip file are from the ParanoidAndroid 3.94 ROM (which I would highly recommend) should you experience troubles with your Bluetooth devices.
I would recommend trying the 328kbps version first, and would expect it to provide the best quality in most situations since it matches the sampling rate of most MP3 files. Most Bluetooth stacks for other devices have 328 as the maximum quality. Of course, test with your devices and ears.
For device testing, I've used it to great success with a BlackBerry Music Gateway (still stuck at low volume, but that's an AVRCP volume control issue) and a Philips AEA2000/37 Bluetooth receiver. I also have an eBay/Chinese receiver which identifies itself as DMZmusic where this change causes continuous popping noises from both my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7. That device is perfectly fine when paired with my other devices that stream at full quality with A2DP SBC (BlackBerry Playbook, WP7 phone, and Windows PC using the Toshiba stack), so clearly Google still has some work to do. Until then, hopefully these files prove to be useful.

Yes, just flash with TWRP. Note that this only affects A2DP Bluetooth audio (ie: wireless headphones and stereo receivers) in situations where it sounds like Internet radio from the year 2001 and won't do a thing for the static noise when using the onboard speakers at low volume.
328K did seem to help with Netflix + BT but it certainly wasnt perfect. Its rather disappointing that such a powerful tablet cant even BT + netflix properly.
Thanks much for sharing.
Aren't any Android Tablets/Phones out there which support BT-MP3/AAC Codec? Maybe those can be ported to Nexus devices?

I don't think you can blame the Nexus 7. I reverted to the previous version of the netflix app and the audio is fine. It appears netflix broke something with the latest update.

I don't know if this is related to the problem of BT keyboards working properly (interference on the 2.4 Ghz band between WiFi and BT), but if it is, would you know how to fix that problem as well? Only reason I ask is that I was under the impression that BT audio also suffered from the interference issue, and would especially make sense if paired up with netflix streaming (which would be sending data over WiFi simultaneously).

I haven't dealt with that issue specifically on the Nexus 7, but I have had nothing but terrible luck with most Bluetooth HID devices for PCs and now just recommend using sets from Logitech or Microsoft with proprietary RF USB dongles. Apple's devices tend to work OK though. As for interference, I have no trouble streaming BT audio while also pulling HD video over my 2.4GHz WLAN, but then again I'm not in a very RF saturated area and also have automatic channel hopping disabled on my WiFi AP. If you're in a highrise or something like that, the only possible solution is going to be to get your WLAN onto 5.8GHz to try and free up some spectrum.
I don't think I've heard of any Android devices that do MP3 or AAC BT audio, but there are quite a few that can do AptX. As far as I know, only the manufacturer ROMs provide the codecs for this (ie: flashing CyanogenMod to an SGSIII will kill AptX), and receiver compatibility is pretty low. It's a shame that there are so many cooks in the Bluetooth kitchen that we end up with this metaphorical beef and Cheetos stew.

You know, I downloaded a Beats Audio APK and that did the trick. Just google BeatsAudio07.02.zip and the first link will where you can download it. I noticed a big difference on my N7 I use at home and definitely the N7 I have installed in my car. The sound thru my Infinity System sounds like crap. Once I downloaded and flashed this zip, it was a huge improvement. :good:
Just got a netflix update last night (3.0.1 build 1016,) fixes the bt issues I had with it =]

Error: Unfortunately, Bluetooth share has stopped
Hi Guys, I'm new to N7 and first thing I wanted to do is to upgrade BT audio q. After causing endless bootloop (X), I had to restore device to factory settings using Nexus Root Toolkit v 1.7.8 and loading Android 4.4.0 - Build: KRT16S. Only after that, I tried again to flash "flo-4.3-BTFix-328kbps-2013-08-18.zip" and everything looked ok until boot when there was a pop up message with an error: "Unfortunately, Bluetooth share has stopped". Same with other zip (345kbps). Any idea where might be the problem?
EDIT: Obviously I was trying to use 4.3 fix for 4.4. build When I realized it, I loaded again 4.3 system, flashed zip and seems to be ok now!
So anyway @random_n, could you please update this fix so it would work for 4.4 as well. It would be greatly appreciated!
Has anyone found a kitkat audio fix yet? I justvtried my BT headphones with my n7, and the sound is ungodly bad compared to my galaxy s3.
Since the tablet gets longer battery life, I'd prefer to use it for my wireless audio instead of the s3.
Having an issue pairing my Motoactv to the new bluetooth headset I just bought, the LG Tone+ (HBS-730). Motoactv won't even see it. Headset connects just fine to the phone, and Motoactv connects to phone and old headset (Motorola S10-HD) without a hitch. Tried removing all existing bluetooth connections on all devices. On Motorola's advice, factory reset Motoactv. Nothing seems to be helping.
Does anyone know if this is something that a dev could fix? If it's a simple "no, there's no way modding will fix that", please let me know, so I can return this headset. I really appreciate any help. I bought this thing because it can connect to 2 devices, where the S10 could not. Doesn't do much good if it won't pair, does it?
I couldn't find a better place to put this, since Motoactv doesn't have its own section. Hope that was OK.

If the MotoACTV does not see the headset while the headset is in pairing mode then it won't work. It will not pair with something it cannot see. Not sure why it wouldn't see it though. The MotoACTV uses bluetooth 4.0 so the LG's bluetooth 2.0 should be seen with ease. My suggestion would be to remove all bluetooth devices from MotoACTV. Reboot the MotoACTV and try again. Also make sure that ALL other devices have their bluetooth turned as so they don't see the LG and try to pair with it. If that doesn't work then odds are it won't work at all.
I think this new version of the headset is Bluetooth 3.0. It's the Tone+ 730, not the Tone 700 original (which, apparently, has no issues pairing with the Motoactv).

MotoACTV is still 4.0 so it should be compatible with 3.0, good luck

Ill let you know i own one of these headsets and should be recieving my motoactv in the mail soon.
Any ideas on the issue guys? I have a Motorola h500 and an LG-HBM 235 and neither will pair with the motoactv. It drives me absolutely nuts that the Motorola headset doesn't even work with the motorola motoactv. I mean really, WTF man? I don't want a big stereo headset. SMH. If i could finally get bluetooth audio, this thing would be great. In fact, they need to make a new model with a speaker and mic then it would be the greatest!

Any suggestions for 3rd party apps that would do this? I'm willing to try.
Also, does anyone think that modding the ACTV with some of the work the guys here on XDA have done will have any effect? I'm reading threads dealing with similar problems with other devices (e.g. car kits) and some are saying its a bluetooth driver issue. Maybe a custom UI will include different bluetooth drivers?
I know it's annoying to hear people ask for free work, but if any of you ACTV programmers/modders think you can tackle this issue, we'd all really appreciate it. It's incredibly frustrating when you buy 2 things that should work together just fine, but for some unknown reason, just don't.
Thanks!

Perhaps something like this could work? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.IG.BluetoothManager
Alternatively, if your device is rooted there are .conf files under /system/etc/bluetooth/ that could potentially be modified to get this working. For example, audio.conf could be modified to remove "Disable=Headset" as well as enable HFP. These changes could possibly resolve the issue but I haven't tried tinkering with them.

Ok, so I decided to tinker a little and the app I mentioned did not work.....neither did some of the modifications I made to to the audio.conf file.
However, I did download this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=es.qrr.android.btoolkit
In the app settings, I enabled experimental mode and was able to find the HBS-730 headset and pair with it. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to go any further than that. Even though it is paired, music wasn't routing to it (granted I didn't use the stock music player -- that may have worked).
I believe the actv is treating the HBS-730 like a phone, tablet, or comp rather than just a headset which is why it is not interacting directly with it. There may be another app with root privileges (like the original app I suggested) that could possibly route the audio correctly but I haven't had the time to tinker with it and don't typically need audio output from my actv anyway.
Hope this somewhat helps.

I had similiar problems pairing my motoactv with a pair of UE 9000's. It could see the device, but would not pair through the stock menus.

No worries .
Yes, you'll need to download the app to the ACTV. It will require rooting of the device and installing a custom ROM is the best way to get everything necessary for the market to work so that you can install these apps.
There is a step-by-step tutorial in the MOTOActv rooting thread in this forum.
Any further updates?
Just curious to see how this solution worked out. I am having the same problem and am definitely a NOOB. Attempting to download an app to my Motoactv seem a bit daunting to me...

Tidal working 100% on my 6P. However I found after first install, needed to renew my subscription (I cancelled it for a while) and did this from within the app. But directly afterwards (like on your 6P) the HIFI options were all still greyed-out. Removed the app and re-installed it solved this issue.
Btw too bad we don't have aptx (no Nexus device has it due to their choice because of license fees)

Hello there,
some of you probably know Android has a problem with Bluetooth audio quality when there is another device for example a watch or other wearables connected.
The s8 was one of few phones which solved that problem for me, because enabling the dual audio function would allow higher bitrates on sbc. However after the last update which included the security patch from August the problem reoccurred.
Is there any place where I can trustfully download the old version of firmware eg the July update? I would like to try if that really caused the problem because the changelogs are not giving it away. I have been searching endlessly and I have come to the point where I would actually pay for it...
Greetings
Daniel

you cant download that portion of the firmware that im aware of as it has to do with the bluetooth stack overflow which goes into far more than just the audio eq portion of the software. Have you gone into developer options to look at the options there?

Im talking about the firmware from the July 2019 update. I wasnt planning on changing only the BT stack.
Yes I have been in the Developer options, but changing stuff there doesnt change anything. There have been topics on this on reddit and also a youtube video which shows the difference betweeen dual audio on and off...
obviously they changed something in the august 2019 update without noting it in the changelog.
The thing is: it seems its pratically impossible to download official firmware from samsung other than the newest one. its so frustrating, but i dont wanna give my credit card to these shady websites, they dont even accept paypal...

you can only notice the difference when using bluetooth audio with for example a fitness tracker connected at the same time.
