I flashed stock oreo roms on my g5 plus using fastboot and twrp methods. I also tried different versions of it (soak test 1 and october patch).
Each time I flashed the stock oreo rom, I encountered audio issues on music player apps like play music, spotify etc.
When a song played, I could hear a slight buzz as the song was playing, making it seem like the audio file has problems. Happens when I plug in headphones/use speakers.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling those apps and factory reset but nothing seems to fix this.
This does not happen with apps like youtube or the phone app, where the audio is absolutely normal. (with headphones/speakers/earpiece).
I have used custom nougat roms (stock and custom) and custom oreo roms like RR, PE and never faced such an issue with audio quality before.
Can anyone help me identify what the problem is?
please help if possible!
can anyone help?

There's most likely no way to figure out why some apps sound normal for you and others don't. A clean flash is always a good advice, if that doesn't help it's most likely a hardware issue (of your device or your audio hardware). I flashed stock Oreo a few days ago, rooted with magisk and flashed viper4android and ainur sauron as modules. The sound is great using Poweramp, YouTube or any other source.

Hello,
I am currently using goldeneye 6.3 with kt kernel TMO variant, on an SGH-i337m.
I tried installing V4A every way possible, and only got it working on 2 occasions (out of hundreds of tries!) for at most 3 songs. (Switching to and from safe mode and compatibility mode, rebooting every few steps; moving the apk into system, installing it there with root; doing these steps with cache/dc wipes; redoing these steps, etc............!!!)
Although few in number, those songs that played with the V4A eq sounded so good that this utility is now a must-have for me.
Can anyone recommend a ROM they know plays nice with V4A, and also is touchwiz based? (I can't help but feel like I don't want to give up any of those samsung features!)
Thanks!

None, i cannot get it working on any TW Rom, i think it may work on a CM rom
Works perfect on GE 6.1 / KT for me. I assume you selected the right driver, followed the V4A instructions post exactly, etc? I use PowerAmp for music and copied the EQ settings from a post I saw on the GE thread. I know it works because turning the V4A Effects On and Off I hear a huge difference. Without V4A, music sounds more muffled. Having it enabled, bass is deep, clarity is crisp, etc. And I go from The Beatles to Wu Tang to Swedish House Mafia to comedy albums...all sound great.
Hello guys.
2 weeks ago my oneplus one got stolen and after that i decided to get a new contract with the p9 lite for free.
In this 2 weeks my phone crashed so many times, spotify crashes non stop, everything feels so slow. In my opo i used most of the time cm with viper4android cuz music is for me one of the most important things on my phone and the other stuff was great too for me. At least i have to say that actually all oft that sucks on my p9. I would give that phone a try with a custom Rom or maybe stock? What would u recommend to me? I cant believe that this is normal with that hardware.
Best regards Woozyclown
That is NOT normal behaviour, my phone never gave me a single problem. Unfortunately, the custom ROM scene is still in an EXTREMELY early stage, I tried them all and would NOT recommend any custom firmware for daily usage as people are still working on those and maybe in some months, but not now. If your bootloader is unlocked, I would recommend flashing your firmware ex novo (possibly a debranded one specific for your device), installing a custom recovery and root your device. From there, you can install all the mods you want (just be careful and do backups before you install any). I am using A.R.I.S.E. sound mods, they work very, very well. If you need any help, just ask!
Sorry, but in my opinion custom ROM for our P9 lite are already usable as daily driver.
I used CyanogenMod 13, Resurrection Remix (6.0.1) and now LineageOS 14.1.
So far, I can say that CyanogenMod 13 is pretty stable, it does not have any bug and I used it as daily driver. Resurrection Remix only has a problem video video recording, but everything else works. LineageOS 14.1 is already stable, the only "big" issue that is has are USB tethering, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth hostpot but I guess they will be fixed soon and SELinux.
If you follow carefully the instructions to install a ROM, I don't see any problems.
I am personally on LineageOS and I managed to install Dolby Atmos, it works very good
Thanks for ur answers. I will take a look on cm and lineageOS. What sound options would give me Dolby atmos? Is it like viper4android? I dont need 5.1 Simulation or something like that, just need it for a eq and to enhance the loudness.

Dolby Atmos boost up sound, I have excellent bass sounds and also volume increase without losing quality. Also it's customizable and you can modify the options, although default settings are already great.
Same here i havent flashed any rom and im still on marshmallow phone runs perfectly fine
Hi shurs!
I have sent audios on Telegram and WhatsApp and it turns out that on WhatsApp, nither reciever or sender (no one) does not hear it as loudly as it should, that is, as if there was a "jam" in the microphone ... But on Telegram (and Facebook, and whatever) they listen well.
it has no dust and nothing more, and I've tried to uninstall/reinstall Whatsapp, as clean cache, data, blablablablabla and NOTHING WORKS!!!
Does someone happen with it? It has a solution?
I've had the same problem since Oreo update, the audio of Whatsapp note have a very low volume even with OOS without any mod(OOS stable, no modded kernel, no root), and even after installing a custom kernel, the Whatsapp microphone bug was present.
Just yesterday i've flashed blu_spark kernel and the problem is gone, now the audio is fine on every application.
Which version of oxygen are you running?

Thanks! But I've to install other kernel? D=
And whats the link to follow?
I haven't got that low sound issue and I am on Franco's kernel.
Can u flash a kernel and see if that fixes it?
(What a dramatic subject title )
For links just go to the OP5 main forum to see every kernel, rom and every other mod listed.
Same problem, someone has the solution without root?
No solution yet? Without custom kernel?
This has been a problem since my OP3T the nougat update lowered the mic gain on Whatsapp and it sounds like I'm under water in Facebook messenger.
Hi! I have some issues with my V20
After install the SuperROM with Stereo Sound in Aroma, the speaker was distorcing so much
I have changed the mixer in /system/etc, the "tasha" file, but not makes any difference
Someone had this problem and fixed?
I changed the kernel many times after this, not maked so much difference, the more stable sound is the MK2000 kernel, but in maximum volume, keep distorcing. The speaker before the root was working so fine.

Sound hissing and distorcing
no one can help ???
After rooting, did you upgrade with a newer KDZ using KDZwriter?
There is actually a known issue of speaker distortion with the first / earliest stock ROMs on the V20.

not working. disabled, switched did all things possible, now using another rom which have premissive selinux by defaulf
Have you solved the problem? I also have the same problem
I unlocked the bootloader 2 weeks back. I have tried havoc os 2.9 3.3 rr pie lineage 17.1 miui by rinku, op5 port etc. I took backup all most every rom. I think I also made a couple of calls(call was working on havoc 2.9 previously). Yesterday while I was on havoc 2.9, I received a call. I attended the call. I was not able to hear any thing from the other side. The other side was unable to hear anything. Same with speaker also. Then reinstall (fresh install, restoring backup fresh install with gapps also) havoc 2.9, 3.3, rr pie, lineage 17.1. but same result. But no problem with miui. And no problem with superior OS Q. I have searched xda and found certain foxes for gsi's and dolby patch for oreo. But my problem is not with gsi or oreo rom. Does anybody have the same problem. Any solutions?
