No aptx-HD after installing stock Oreo Firmware - LG V20 Questions & Answers

On Ressurection Remix Rom it worked great.
Since I did the format and installed stock, I can only get it to work with AAC.
Headphones: Sony Wh-CN700
Settings in developer options, Sony app or Poweramp don't change it.
Any idea besides reflash other KDZ? (I have different region firmware now)
FIXED: You need to select best sound quality under bluetooth settings!

[Q] Bluetooth autoplay issues in custom ROMs

Disclaimer: I searched THIS forum over the last 8 months and I did not find any mention of this issue.
I have this issue in all custom ROMs I tried (CM11, LiquidSmooth and OmniRom) and not in the stock rom and its derivatives (like Negalite and ACHERON).
I have Pioneer DEH-4500BT stereo. Bluetooth connection gets set up properly, but the default audio player (Smart Audiobook Player) app does not get automatically started the next time I start the car. This happens with ALL the custom ROMs but with none of the stock derived ROMs. (I mean: in the stock derived ROMs, the Smart Audiobook Player restarts when I start the car with stereo in BT-AUDIO position. Not so with any of the custom ROMs. To confound the matters, If I cycle through the inputs - BT-AUDIO -> AUX -> TUNER -> BT-AUDIO, Smart Audiobook player restarts properly once I reach BT-AUDIO again).
Also, CM11 and LiquidSmooth restart Smart Audiobook Player appropriately on Samsung Galaxy Nexus (which was my default device till last week).
Much as I like Negalite And ACHERON implementations, I like LiquidSmooth a lot and I would like it to be my daily driver.
The only reason I am asking this question here, instead of LiquidSmooth thread is that this issue is common to all the custom ROMs.

I just tried installing the LAST cm11 for jfltespr image before unified stream (cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY-jfltespr.zip) and this issue (no bluetooth autoplay) is not there in that image. This rom (old as it is) is going to be my DD for now.
One more piece of puzzle: I updated to latest stable (M8) of the unified via the cyanogenmod updater. Exact same issue of no autoplay on Bluetooth. I reverted to my backup quickly.
Can anybody tell me how to debug this issue (bluetooth autoplay not reaching the concerned media player) in unified roms?
Thanks.

Need help with choosing the right rom

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

Upgrading From 6.0.1 ROM to 7.x via TWRP-Best Nougat ROM for the Axon 7?

I haven't been following the Android scene lately, and have been thinking about upgrading to Nougat. I'm running an unlocked bootloaded, TWRP, and a "debloatded + root" ROM based off stock (can't remember which one). When I say "best ROM", to me that's the least problematic ROM. I'd like to have a ROM where the power management doesn't go crazy and force me to reboot in order to not have it auto-kill NPR One every day. I'm aware of the CyanogenMod / LineageOS shakeup, but I'm not clear on if there's a build for the Axon 7, and the state of things. It seems like about enough time has passed to where there would be a few Nougat ROMs out there where all the basic functionality is working (GPS, BlueTooth, etc), but I'm not sure what the good options are.
People running Nougat, do you have any suggestions for ROMs you're using / loving? In the past I've been quite happy with CM-based ROMs, but I'm not adverse to stock or stock-based setups provided they are less buggy than the stock Marshmallow ROM. I prefer to have a rooted device so I can use an adblocking solution if possible.

Well, if you have an A2017U or G, it's best to stick with Marshmallow. B15 (Nougat for the A2017U) is buggy and slow. A2017G doesn't have an official Nougat version for now, so in order to have Nougat you have to flash B15.
If you have chinese model, there's 7.1.1 which works better but some users are experiencing problems with the Google Play Store.
I don't recommend AOSP roms at all, they have many issues like:
Camera (currently it crashes when recording videos and the quality is subpar)
Bluetooth (many incompatibilities with some devices)
Sound (no dolby atmos and only one channel is working so speakers are mono)
Fingerprint sensor is very buggy on some devices
Animations are not as smooth
Sometimes the device will unlock to a black screen or an unresponsive desktop
Can't remember more, but there's more
There's only a few... Check them out.

Stick with MM, it's great. It's fluid, the camera is good enough, the sound is great and the battery life is very good.
7.1.1 is on the way for us A2017U users.

Audio quality problem on stock oreo

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?
guys can anybody help me out??

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.

No audio from the microphone using non-stock ROM

Hi everyone,
I have the following audio issue with my Note 3 (N9005 - HLTE).
If I use either the original stock Jellybean or Lollipop (latter from here: "SM-N9005 Stock ROM 5.0 for United Kingdom (BTU)") everything works fine.
If however I try to flash any alternative ROM I get no audio from the microphone and I mean complete silence.
That happens recording audio only (with the default and alternative audio recording apps), videos and in phone calls (both conventional and VOIP/WhatsApp).
I tried many alternative ROMS (LienageOS, ViperOS, ResurrectionREmix, HavocOS), in a number of different versions, for the last 6 months.
I also tried the latest BL and CP from "Bootloader and Baseband ( BL and CP ) from Samsung firmware for SM-N9005" with no success.
I made any possible search I could think of, both here and on Google, but again with no success in finding a solution.
I can certainly exclude an hardware issue because the moment a flash the stock ROM back everything works fine.
Please, can anyone help?
Cheers,
Ivo
What is your recording app ?
I'm using HavocOS and no problem on voice recording including phone call.
