hello,
i've searched now for a while and could not find a solution for this problem:
on my device (and this was the same with my note2) and on stock kernels i could not get the equalizer function properly.
the stock equalizer does not alter the sound in the right way, in fact it makes it LESS "loud" on the opposite frequencies i want to adjust.
example: if i want to add heights the bass goes down significantly, but no hights are added. same for adding bass: the heigts go down, but the bass level did not increase. if i turn the EQ off, the sound get much louder then, although i adjusted the typically "U" formed curve!
as far as my search showed this is a problem for other people as well, here in the note3 forum there are almost no postings regarding this.
is your EQ working as expected?
what apps do you use? stock music player or something different? i use google play music, but its the same for other apps as well.
even tried to remove all other music apps (as suggested in some postings) due to possible conflicts, but this wont help! i also installed a different equalizer app (and removed the stock one, after only disabling it) from the market, same results.
on my note2 i had the same issue, the only thing which helped was to flash a custom kernel. with this i was able to use equalizers the way they were meant!
does someone has some experience here?

thx for the answer,
i used poweramp for years, and it did me an excellent job! but for convenience i switched to google play some time ago, and since then i have this equalizer problem with samsung stock kernels! if i remember right this is since the introduction of 4.0 or 4.1!
because of my migration to google play i would need a solution how to get the equalizer right, and i'm curious if other people have the same problem! and: if someone managed to get it work!

Now I know this is many years old, but I see from your sig you have an S8+ now. Do you still have this issue with the stock EQ? I'm getting exactly the same behaviour with the S8+ and the S9+, turning any slider up just seems to cut the entire volume down, it's so annoying!
After a lot of research about that KitKat 4.4.2 bug i found the cause of the problem. The audio glitching bug is because of hotplugging of the cpu cores. A common bug, as someone told at Xperia Z forum section. To fix this, disable mp decision through Trickster MOD (Search for it at Play Store). This should fix it. But this also means your cpu no longer shuts off cores when not needed. But it shouldn't affect your battery usage much... At Trickster MOD the Mp Decision is located at "Specific" tab. You ONLY need root to make it work!!! Tested by me!
You can re-enable MusicFX and Sound Enhancement without problem now
P.S. If you restart your tablet you have to disable Mp Decision again cause it will return to the default value.
For me, it doesn't work

Do you have .FLAC music files in your tablet?? Cause the dropouts/music skipping is caused by KitKat native FLAC decoder... You can try to download the PlayerPro music player from Play Store. After install, go to Settings->Audio->Download DSP pack. Install the pack from Play Store, run the installed application and then follow the simple instructions at the second tab (swipe left). Hope it works!!!!
Thanks man! Now it works perfectly

If files are in .FLAC format then there is an issue with FLAC decoder. Check the post #3 above!!
I found the root cause of my problem. It is related to my /etc/hosts file (~10MB). I guess it is too large (mooab)
Thanks for your support!
after a long wait for lollipop (i mean after release)
a few days ago i created Pre rooted fw with PRF Creator and flashed it without wipe data
before that i had 157 rooted and my bootloader was unlocked and didn't had any TA backups
and now here is my small review
1-the UI and Animations are lovely i really love the new animations new lockscreen is defenetly better than the old one specialy with analog clock!
2-speed is increased (i kept all my data and apps) but it boots up faster,open apps faster,and more importantly the Previous apps stays open for longer time (on kit kat i was able to open 4-5 apps multitask between them now on LP i opened 6-7 apps and multi tasked between them)
3-THE SOUND!!
the hot thing about LP!
the speaker sound is less than KK which is bad very bad!on headphones i tried on stock MH750 and philips citiescape .....on first boot sound was flat..flat as paper!!no basses at all!
but on second boot everything went back to normal!
i didn't use any sound mod on KK it was clear enough for me and now its as good as it was
4-camera real time iso caused lag on it but overall the colors in pics are better now( i used drm hack Bionz is working just ok)
it boots faster now
5-back on Kk it had some delay to wake up but now it wakes up before you even know you pushed it
6-i've included the smart backlight and smart rotation and 4k in my zip they all work ok now i hardly suggest you to install them!
thats all that came to my head right now
thanks for reading

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone has successfully found a working SYSTEM WIDE speaker mod for N that improves quality and volume.
I used to love Dolby Atmos. I know there are some of these floating around but didnt know if it was working with N system wide. I prefer not to use V4a but if it's the only option I will.
Thanks all.

Hey thanks.
Yeah I did see that rom. I may try it in the future but for right now I'm sticking with Tupac4u's debloated stock rom. I'd like to find something I could simply flash like Dolby Atmos that used to work on prior versions of Android.
I appreciate the recommendation tho. Will probably eventually try that rom.
Thanks
I grabbed the files from here and flashed. I have both Dolby Atmos and VIper working without any issues on stock N. Enjoy.

Niiiice. Gotta try this, I sure hope this works bec iv been told before something works many times and It didnt for me. Thanks a lot tho. Fingers crossed, will Download and install those 2 exact files and report back.
Edit: @john7760
I did what you said. Flashed those 2 zip files.
Can't get Atmos to work
Thought maybe I had to delete music FX , did that, still didn't work, then thought I had to change selinux , did that, tried permissive and enforcing, no go.
Has no effect on Spotify, YouTube.
Don't know what else to try

Have you also followed the select/deselect instructions when you first open V4A in the ARISE thread? Up until now, I'd had zero luck getting any sound mod to stick or work system wide on N. I still haven't tested enough to know if it's system-wide, sticks through multiple re-boots or works for speaker and bluetooth, but so far on headphones, so good. Like you, I'm on tupac4u's debloat N, as I couldn't keep a clean system after all my sound mod attempts on the stock OTA. If it helps, here's exactly what I did:
- make build.prop copy for restore purposes
- reboot to TWRP
- flash ARISE 2.11 file (also flashed the Atmos GUI add-on, but I can't stand that app)
- reboot system
- rename /vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf by appending .bak
- reboot system
- begin playing audio file, open V4A
- select/deselect/select enable and then begin adjusting settings
As I said, not sure if things will stick, but got it working better than before and the sound is considerably better than the most recent Viper4Android mod.
PS - I agree on those instructions. I think guitardedhero could use some editing help, as the copy is such a wall of text, getting the info or files you need is a real challenge.

Is this different from the past? I've found V4A speaker optimization really nice for the 6p. You don't have many settings other than making them louder and clearer, but there is still a noticeable improvement.

Thanks. I will have to try your steps . Im pretty sure I did close to that and couldn't get either to work. I actually prefer Atmos app over V4a app , but if all I can get is V4a to work, I'll take it, I just want to be able to improve the quality and volume a bit if I can, as long as V4a can do exactly what Atmos can do, I mean to be able to adjust certain eq settings. I know V4a app has that in it, just hoped it worked just like Atmos did.
I am running a custom kernel, I wouldn't think that would matter tho.
Like I said, I'll give it a try. Will check back. Thanks again for your time.

I run ElementalX and had it in place through the entire flashing process. The one thing I forgot was that I disabled MusicFX through TB after I flashed ARISE V4A. I actually find V4A set to expert UI has about as many tweaks as one could stand. Always found Atmos very clunky to use, but to each his own.
The external speaker is definitely improved, too. Finally, my system notifications are clearly using V4A, so it would appear on first blush that it's truly system wide. It will be interesting to see what happens after my next reboot, but very happy so far as I thought I'd have to stick with stock sound for the foreseeable future. Still waiting for that damned factory image.

Well that's what I liked about Atmos. It's simple compared to V4a.
Yeah the more I hear from you the more I'm worried it's just not gonna work for me for some reason, bec im pretty sure I did what you said, maybe not in that exact order. Although,
Instead of freezing Music Fx I deleted it.
Soon as I get a chance I'll try in exactly the order you said, I don't see how it can't work if we are running the same thing, unless another mod I'm using or an app I'm running could have something to do with it.
Frustrating.
Thank
you.
Edit: just noticed, the 1st guy said to flash numbers 2.1
You are saying to flash 2.11, could that be something,?
Also when you say select, deselect, select enable to mean press the check mark, uncheck, then check again?
Edit 2:
I had tried YouTube , Spotify, and notifications on my first attempt with no luck. But before I retried with your exact steps I figured lemme dl an mp3 to see, and it does work playing a random mp3 on speaker but nothing else. Is this normal?

The ARISE thread suggests an order of doing things for V4A, so take a look at that (if you can scroll through all the text). 2.11 is just the most recent zip in the repository. Good luck. I mostly use it for Play Music. Haven't tested YouTube or other media apps.

Ugh. Finding even the ARISE installation is super inconsistent as to whether it sticks and sometimes even from song to song. Think I'll dirty flash the ROM and then flash Extreme Beats as I find it helps a bit. With that and additional gain from ElementalX, it'll be livable with MusicFX. I'm going to wait until Nougat sound mod dev is a little more mature.
Ok I'm an audiophile musician, as many of you I think
and, though stock audio just works I'm trying to look at audio mods here
I looked in many threads and I can see that ARISE is very well known, supported and loved, but looks like is very customizeable and confusing....
dolby atmos in apps section doesn't work well, it lowers volume and...well, I can't feel any improvement
viper4android should be nice, but I never tried it
now...what are you using? things that work nice and stable, with quality enhancements....don't need thousands of profiles or eq since I'm a big fan of flat sound (the way is meant to be listened)
Thank you for your attention, once we'll have some satisfactory answer I'll make a poll and a general AIO audiophile thread with all working options as referral.
EDIT: ARISE audio system simple guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709
go to this thread, don't be scared, just search for lastest deuteronomy zip and flash it
you will find a nice app called viper4arise that will let you manage settings separately for every audio output with simple and nice UI
you can also import presets and plugins, but it's secondary.
Im going to tune in on this. Would like to install ARISE on my nexus (comes with Viper4Android) but there are so many versions to choose from, it gets a bit confusing.
Any tips on which ARISE works for our phone on 7.1.1 ?
ARISE is the right answer. It's customizable for true audiophiles but simply flashing it seriously improves audio quality without you having to tweak anything. Seriously. I know there are several zips for ARISE. Just make sure you get the most current stable release (Deuteronomy� 2.3.3) and I usually go for the smallest zip file because I don't need all of the extra stuff like Dolby Atmos and whatnot. It comes with a modified version of the Viper4Android app that allows you to tweak settings to your liking. The app, by default, is setup for novices or people that don't need to get too specific with any settings so you can boost bass, enable clarity options, spectrum extension, etc. by toggling the switch next to it. Simple as that.

if you're sure it works, is stable enough, simple and it has graphic (not text editing or changing files on system) settings through an app....I'm going to test it right now....

There's a zip with v4a profiles, Copy it to v4a directory in sdcard and choose Audiophile 10.0

I never did any of that. I just flashed, booted up, went into the ARISE V4A app and toggled the options I wanted. There was an immediate difference in audio quality. You can toggle the options while playing music and hear the difference.
EDIT: Oh. Make sure to disable MusicFX or whatever that nonsense is. Settings > Apps > Show system apps > MusicFX and disable.

ok! so this is a solution. I'm going to try it right now....
for anyone else who pass here, if there is any other thing you are using please reply here! we want options!
EDIT: Ok guys I tried ARISE and it works damn well, I can manage audio settings without profiles since I know how to tune that, but main mportant thing is that it works.
Now, regarding higher bitrate? or anything else?

Really depends on what you're playing the music on. I usually enabled Spectrum Extension (0.4 strength) as a lot of my music is 320kbps MP3 and Bass Boost (default settings) for Bluetooth and Headset (3.5mm jack) while enabling "Speaker Optimization" for the speaker. I mainly use the bluetooth audio in my car and while my car stereo isn't that great but I did throw some Kickers in the front doors. Spectrum Extension is awesome, but make sure to disable it if you're listening to any FLAC files.

I really only listen to music through headphones/AUX in the car so I edited some of those to the audiophiles info in the post. I turned on the spectrum extension and will see how I like it since it's all streamed from spotify (no flac).

Why do you disable MusicFX?
And it's necessary on stock too?

Because it interferes with ARISE / V4A. If you're completely stock with no audio mods there's no point to disabling it.
