The international GS3 supports AptX (higher quality codec for A2DP Bluetooth streaming), but I couldn't definitively find support that the US version did. And then Samsung said it didn't support AptX. Those clueless people....
Well, I hooked my AT&T GS3 up to an HTC A200 Bluetooth receiver, which has AptX, and ran a catlog:

Yup. I waited until now, but no luck. I'm leaving the country for a year, so here's hoping they figure it out by 2015.
Instead, I just added the HTC StereoClip to my car's AUX port and now I get high quality AptX in my car. Of course, if I'm not listening to the AUX mode, I won't get interrupted if a phone call comes in or if a GPS direction comes through, but not a deal breaker.

Yeah I am the one wondering,
I have the international i9500 Galaxy S4 and trying to confirm the presence of Aptx . Running stock ROM ( fork of stock) WanamLite 4.2.2. Hope you can help me with my queries.
1. How to confirm that it supports Bluetooth audio aptX (any terminal or ADB command ? ), will this command even output the presence of aptX , even if the mobile is not paired to an aptX complaint device and actively streaming the audio. I have tried running the logcat via ADB mode and from inside the android app (Catlog and aLogcat), the logcat freezes after a while and does not updates any new messages. Apparently from the available output I am unable to find any messages with text strings " D/audio codecs aptx" or anything similar.
2. Just wanted to see what messages are output in logcat when connecting to a Bluetooth device, at the moment I dont have any aptX enabled device, just regular bluetooth headset and DOSS DS-1155 Bluetooth Motion Speakers. However still unable to do so, although I am just researching prior to buying an aptX headphones.
3. If connected to an aptX complaint device , do we have to use the stock android ROM Music or Media player to get the benefit of aptX audio streaming. Or we can use any media player of our choice (like MX Player, Wondershare or even the ported Sony Walkman App) while running the stock ROM.
Would really appreciate the feedback and opinions for the queries, which are not only for me, but would help the community at large.
Thanks.

A/V Receiver is splitting signal into HDMI video part and 5.1 audio part, but i can get only 2 audio channel. I am using this test files https://www2.iis.fraunhofer.de/AAC/multichannel.html. Do you have any idea where is the problem ?
My scenario is "LG LG3" -> Slimport -> HDMI -> "A/V Receiver" -> 1) "HDMI output" -> LCD
-> 2) "5.1 channel audio"
Slimport is very picky about 5.1 audio. That test file doesn't work on my Nexus 7 (only get 2 channel audio), but on my G3 it seems to be working fine:

I haven't changed any settings on the G3, just using the standard video player
Ok, so, it is obvious that LG G3 slimport is capable of playing 5.1 audio. The real question is how to force LG G3 to send 5.1 channel audio into slimport ? Unfortunately i have no other settings on receiver than change mode stereo, 5.1, pass pass throught.
I think that LG G3 simply doesn't know that it should send 6 or 8 audio channels. May be this information should come from slimport and receiver but it doesn't.
I have this "cheap chinesse" receiver http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6156575582.html. I will appreciate any suggestions.

The problem is not with the G3. As I posted above, I played the exact same file as you on my G3 and got 5.1 output, without 'forcing' or changing any settings on the phone. It automatically sent 6 channels
I think the problem is with your receiver.
Can you try playing the test file using VLC For Android? VLC will transcode the AAC audio to multichannel PCM which the receiver should be able to support.
Also try this test file which has AC3 rather than AAC audio:
http://www.tfm.ro/win32-projects/test-avi-ac3/
I have tried VLC with "test-avi-ac3" but without success. The strange is that all 5.1 channels are comming from FL and FR output, etw. CENTER is comming equally from FL and FR outputs, but no sound from CENTER output, RL is comming from FL output, but no sound from RL output.
Hello Developers !
I have an issue with my Galaxy Note 10+
It started yesterday . The problem is :
When i play audio files on the note 10 + they play normally no matter the audio format
But when i connect Galaxy Buds / Akg Earphones that came in the box *wired*
M4A audio files don't play anymore . Instead the file starts with a sound like a bubble pop and then a noisy sound like glitchy sounds with crackling . As if it's an audio hack
* that is with m4a files and some facebook messenger voice records for some reason *
So i tried searching for a solution .. i went to the settings and searched for a while
Then came across advanced bluetooth settings . And then i enabled dual audio
Tried again . Everything works fine . M4a and FB voice records . But only with the wireless galaxy buds .
The akg wired earphones still have the same problem and i can't find a solution
*I wanted to provide an audio sample of the problem but i don't have another phone to record
Hi, I have the same problem.
I have converted alla "m4a" Music File in "mp3"
The problem has appeared with the last firmware anda the July patch of security.

Here is a link to the next firmware that will be released. Perhaps your issue is what they are referring to.

I have this problem too. Downloaded music from youtube converted to music would play weird sounds through bluetooth speakers, provided headphones and car. But music from spotify works. What I did was unpaired everything and it works now, except for the headphones. I am still having problem with the weird noise using the usb headphone.
Hi.
Looking at gsmarena, it doesn't list as aptXhd or adaptive is supported by this phone.
Anyone can help?
Comfirm It has aptx support.
You can assume that the Snapdragon cpu will support aptx because it's Qualcomm's command code.

aptx different from aptx adaptive and aptx hd. Pixel lineup is an example. Pixel supports aptx and aptx hd but not aptx adaptive. however Poco f3 stock miui 12 support all aptx codecs. Just a small info for you.
I'm using the Nuraphones which work best with aptX HD (adaptive would be better) and what do you know, I'm upgrading from my OnePlus One (from 2014) and I'm not sure what to buy really, but I know I want AptX HD
thanks.

thanks for the information I went to find out about their differences in attachments, so how can I know which devices support their code.
Please advice on how to check devices support.

I don't know how to check supported devices. I speak from experience as I have a f3 , pixel 5 and an aptx adaptive earbuds. And f3 recognize my earbuds with hd and adaptive. So it supports both. Pixel 5 on the other hand doesn't show aptx adaptive. XD

like i said, aptx hd supported. Even newer aptx adaptive supported
depends on what tws you're using...
also it depend on what you're listening (music files & player apps) if it only spotify mostly it just boost the volume sound, the details & clarity improve but not so much
i didn't yet have tws, however i use usb c dual dac...this part improve a lot on SQL, on tws (just barely tested it) with sony XM3..it does ups your sound (again depends on what music files & player apps) but since i'm cable type guy..so i stick with my usb c dual dac
It wont let me change these settings, regardless of if im connected to a bluetooth device or not. Do i need to have other settings enabled/disabled before i can change the audio settings under the developer options menu?
I have the U.S model with the Qualcomm snapdragon chipset, running android 12 and One UI 4.1, in case that's worth noting.
Im not sure if these will be of any use but just for reference heres 2 screenshots of the menus im unable to interact with.
All other bluetooth settings between "HD audio" and "Bluetooth Audio Codec LDAC:"
I'm unable to change, even though i can open the menus and none of the options appear to be grayed-out.
Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere. Im fairly new here and android 12 as well (most recent android version ive used in recent years is android 8.0 oreo). still learning my way around.
thanks in advance for any help, answers, etc.

tldr: I’m no help, but I can confirm some parts.
I’ve got a pair of Sony WF-1000XM3. As long as the headphones are connected, I can turn on and off the HD audio setting and switch between SBC and AAC (they don’t support better standards).
My old Bluetooth speaker and a Jabra Evolve 65 don't activate this settings, so it depends on the Bluetooth version and supported audio formats?

Yes I can confirm that, same here.
It's as simple as connecting a headset capable of this codecs/options.
I think generally the best option would be selected automatically.

You can only initiate the changes for HD codecs when the bluetooth device is connected. Example, With Sony linkbuds S, I can select LDAC Or AptX. Once configured, the codec activates every time you connect the BT device.
Hello.
I have installed the AOSP based ArrowOS and CrDroid roms and the audio lag on my bluetooth earbuds is considerable. According to the Audio Checker app, the latency is 244 ms, but in reality the latency has to be close to a second, especially when I'm using the Moonlight Game Streaming app.

However, in Miui or Xiaomi EU the latency is imperceptible. Audio Checker shows 80 ms of latency in these roms and in practice it is the same, I have even played Resident Evil 8 with bluetooth headphones and with a kishi connected to the mobile transmitting from my computer. The experience is good considering I'm using $30 Tozo T12 headphones.
As you can see in the attached images, in the miui based roms the audio buffer size is smaller than in the Aosp roms, at least that is what the Audio Checker app shows. So is it possible to modify some system file (I have root access) on those AOSP based roms to reduce bluetooth audio latency?
What Bluetooth Audio Codec is used on both? AptX? SBC?
The Codec makes a huge difference in the Sound Lag (and Sound Quality)
Ideally use AptX, if supported by the headphone

The app was last updated 7 years ago. I wouldn't trust its values too much..
But I've heard of other people complaining about significant Bluetooth Audio Delay in AOSP ROMs, compared to MIUI...
But does your Bluetooth headphone support AptX? You might be able to enable this in Bluetooth device settings.
Could try asking their respective Telegram Groups...
