Increase bitpool? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

It looks like someone did it with Samsung source last year.... First time I've heard of it in a tw rom....
Anyone else dumbfounded by this being set so low? This was the reason I started running aosp roms on my EVO 4G.... And kept with them on my Galaxy SII.
Why isn't this more important to people? Music sounds like poop over bluetooth.
Anyone know of a fix for the Note 3?

this message didn't go quit as I planned, so to bump it and get what I wanted to say in...I'll Reply:
someone actually did this with the Samsung Captivate Glide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880298
I would LOVE this to be fixed once and for all by Samsung, but....doesn't look like that will EVER happen....
Basically highs sound too compressed and scratchy almost...am I the only one who's almost quit listening to music from my phone in the car because of this?
Thanks

quick fix that (at least) make BT music sounds better...
edit build.prop and add this value:
lpa.decode=false

I missed this post, but thank you!!!
I just made the changes, but haven't been out to my car yet. Hoping for the best, but honestly, not expecting much. What do these changes do? I'm gonna google it, but....I'm asking here too.

You're welcome ^^
From what I googled: it reroute your audio stream through main CPU instead of special DFX introduced in JB+, the Low Power Audio decoder -lpa.decode- (thus increase in batt usage like playing music in pre-JB Android)...
I would be glad if it works for you as well ad solve your problem ^^

I was super excited, but ...it didn't work. Highs still sound like poop. It's hard to tell sometimes, but, when my random playlist hit In The Mall by Weezer, it became very obvious that it still sucked.
the cymbols in that song are pretty isolated, and that's where you can hear the static compression. just sounds terrible to me...and i'm far from an audiophile...
Thanks for responding though!

Ah yes, its still suck but better than using LPA Decoder...
Still have to find a way to make it at least listenable....
I'm an audiophile... And this problem made me crazy...
Some says that its intentional by Sammy, coz Sammy use APT-X protocol for streaming music (maybe its their marketing strategy to make ppl switch to Samsung Level headset/APT-X compatible headset?).

I didn't mention it in this thread, but I think last time I tried an AOSP rom for this phone, I still wasn't very impressed with the sound quality. Have you tried? I think I tried a PAC-Man rom a few months ago....

Umm, nope... I never tried AOSP/AOKP anymore since my Note 2....
And I give up using bluetooth for music, can't bear the sound quality...
I tried Viper but it stuttering too much, and I don't like equalized/tuned sound... I listen to music as-is....
I'll try to get cheap APT-X bluetooth headset (not $500++ headset as I'm cheap )

[MOD] Audio Tweaks (Including Silent Camera)

Audio Modifications​
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for problems you may incur.
Please do some research if you are a first timer.
Only you can choose to use this software.
By downloading you agree to these terms.​​WHAT THIS TWEAK DOES:
This flash-able Volume-tweak.zip includes both mods simultaneously.
1) Silent Camera!
Volume.db
Replacing the existing volume.db file, the one I'm including disables all shutter sounds (which I may change to one of the shutter sounds), autofocus sounds, and other obnoxious camera tones. I understand that Samsung's idea is to make people aware that others may be photographing them, privacy stuff and all, but let's be honest shall we? Creepers are going to creep one way or another, and the autofocus 'beep' disturbs the baby and makes the dog bark! It also disables the boot sound. Best part of this tweak, it doesn't even touch the actual camera apk!
2) Volume Enhancing!
default_gain.conf
The next is a mod adapted from the developer Meltus. You may know him for other awesome volume modifications, but this one he made for the GSIII international. This should make the phone overall louder in all respects. I have, however, adjusted it from his original settings to keep the volume from reaching 'crackling' volumes and possibly damaging the speakers. This level sounds loud and still sounds good. :good:​
DOWNLOADS:
Flash the following file through CWM:

Hand-Tested on my stock rooted SPH-L710.​

Do you have this mod working on your device? I ask because I got burned on the teh kernel, and I'm a little more cautious about what I flash from now on.

It's brilliantly simple. Most android phones come with these settings ingrained into the kernel, but Samsung has left them out. In theory, one could make these adjustments from on the phone itself, if you can open a .db file. Very simple, nothing that can break a phone. Just be careful not to blow out your speaker or your ears.
Sweet, Camera sounds really annoys me.
Time to creep!!! (on my kids ) lol
edit: flashed and tested camera. No sounds on focus and snapshot so :good:

Sweet! :highfive:
As an addendum, this tweak is even neater because it disables the camera noises on a system level. I've seen a supposed higher-resolution camcording camera apk floating around that 'supposedly' disables camera noises as well... but it doesn't matter if it does because this tweak stays in effect. I don't believe this will affect other camera apps... but any Samsung camera variant should be muted.
Random you rock. Great to see you here. Your OG epic stuff was awesome. Thanks for the sound free camera!
Randomking ive seen your work before amazing stuff glad this got ported i was gonna try to port the volume mod but still no phone yet =( thanks a million anyways
Thanks for this mod. It works great. Would it be possible to mute the lock/unlock noises? I love water but I'm a little tired of hearing water droplets every time I use my phone.

For the sound boost (using the international tweak) you used the config file, correct?
That file does not, by default, exist on our US variants. I've personally included the tweak in my ROM over on T-Mobile. I've had a person or two say it made no difference. Me personally, I thought it was louder then hell (changed speaker boost from 0 to 40 and headphones from 0 to 25). If I put the volume on the lowest possible setting, its very audible still. With my headphones, I put it on three ticks and it was loud. Putting it up fully made me feel like my eardrums were going to pop.
What are your feelings on the tweaks? Do you think they actually work? Considering the config file doesn't exist by default, do you think they're actually pointed to in our system to be used?

I too noticed that the file isn't there, and was momentarily skeptical. But as the base coding is likely fundamentally identical, I thought I'd give it a chance. It's hard to fully test while at work... but I can hear my mp3 alarms quite clearly now. I had made a thread days ago regarding how my songs play fine in the player, but at half volume as alarms. The alarm was much much louder! And I generally have a fairly discerning ear.
That said, I now have to experiment the individual settings I think.

I agree the coding is likely identical. My skepticism comes more from the fact that the file doesn't exist by default. If it doesn't exist, and we add it, does anything in our system actually point to the config file in order for it to actually take effect?
Regardless, I'm pretty positive it works. I just was hoping someone had a better understanding of how it works and if it's actually pointed to.
When you play around with it, mind PMing me your results? I'm curious what you get.
For one, change the headphone settings and try with your headphones plugged in. I think they're extremely loud with the boost set to 25..

Certainly. If different values draw drastically different effects... I'll probably be making a "Louder but comfortable" version and an "Extremely loud, hearing damage may ensue" version. :good:

There will be, but I have to write up the script to delete the conf file later. The volume.db file need only be replaced by the stock one.

yep, clearly - I'm sure that you also do a few things on your Willy I'd never like to try out
But that reports that BE would just be a "dirty trick" (obviously how else you could get bass on 3mm membranes lol) and would break the Android audio system didn't just come from Xeno's dev - I already read about that long before...
But as I also mentioned a few times: I do use my phone for listening to music but I don't own one of these expensive headsets... and I can live with it easily
BTW: don't know when exactly you've tried Xeno - but the headphone calibration (which to me is the essential thing) doesn't exist that long...
--- EDIT --- for the quality headset: I'm pretty sure a lot of the excited guys in the app's thread do own such thingies...
--- EDIT 2 --- what about those HTML tags in your post WTF? How come? lol
Well,I've heard some music on One X(of course with beats audio) enabled,and TBH it didn't impress me much,PowerAmp with right configuration sounds so much superior than BA with same headphones on my wildfire.
I tried Xeno as well,liked its headphone calibration feature.It gives some visualizer kind of effect,but PowerAmp is something I cant give up for anything. :laugh:

Although it's the sound (and the HP calibration) what keeps me sticking with XenoAmp, initially it has been the playlist concept what triggered my attention as I always thought - with any player (I also tried power amp) - it was a hazzle to do a simple playlist on my phone - just quick and easy. Besides those 2 reasons I recently discovered that Xeno can do even more (I never read any manuals unless big fat red warnings to do so). I didn''t know that it also supports shoutcast radio stations (+ planned feature: LAN)
--- EDIT --- and I like the UI of course

Indeed it has a better UI and as you said provides you with much ease to create playlists.I'll probably make Xeno my default music player when I buy a good piece of earphones.

What do you mean by it didn't work ? If you mean you didn't get an app or a beats symbol anywhere then pmsl !! It's basically just an audio enhancement and to the naked eye will remain invisible and to the naked ear is also debated if it does much anyway but I personally noticed a bass enhancement. Ok so if you don't notice a difference then try something else,if you do then BONUS.....don't just say it doesn't work !! We can debate this until the cows come home lol some use and some don't final.

[Q] Microphone sensitivity on Note2 GT-N7100?

is there an option, on some app, mod, ROM that i can reduce the sensitivitiy of the microphone itself so that my baby(note2) can record music on a reduced level so that kicks and snares on a drum dont pop out, click on the speakers?????
... i use it for info recording ideas of my garage band... nothing serious, i dont need to be perfect, just one the sound of each instrument to be recognizable, so we can develop the music idea that we recorded later...
i used to do it on the iP4 and it had better recording capabilities in the native recorder that comes with iOS , there were no such problems of that kind...
thats about ONLY thing i resent on my gt n7100 ... :crying:
anyone??
here are the recordings with iphone 4 and galaxy note 2 in the same booth, room that we are practicing... the sound difference is unrealistic... its like galaxy note is some cheap crap ... it has better bass recognition but overall ip4 wins easily...
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rgtbyn8poiw7h75/t_PGFzwQFS
**** REMOVED the LINKS***
the folder contains two small mp3 songs of 20 sec cca each...
anyone again? help
I've been looking for the opposite, in my case the problem is that I need more sensitivity. I've been looking for kernels and apps and so far I've just found one kernel that implements microphone gain tweaking via four modes of operation:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2000328
I have to say that I tried it but had no luck, the mentioned modes didn't work. Switching modes only made it more unresponsive, to the point that i had to yell to get heard.
I'll be watching that thread for the next version. Maybe it works for you.
BTW I'm on 4.1.2 stock.
tnx 4 the reply man eventhough it was not heplful, but tnx!
im on 4.1.1, stock, and i cant belive that there is kno one here that can write some information with sense about this, im not expecting someone to solve this out, just to say is there is something like that in development or maybe it already exists. This forum is full of genius people but no one can help me...cant believe it...
I advise you to stay in tune with that NEAK kernel I posted about above. One of the mic operation modes is intended for very noisy places like concerts, so it seems to fit on your purpose of recording with your band.
I can't post outside links due to my poor post history. Google for "uNEAKWolfsonAudioControl" Have a look at that info. It's the audio tweaks included in that kernel. I insist it might help you once the bugs in kernel get solved (hopefully next version).
Cheers

ViPER4Android Audio Effects Settings

Hello,
I installed ViPER4Android Audio Effects in the effort to make my phone speaker louder, and, perhaps, sounds better.
However, after installation, I played around with all the different settings.
And for the life of me, I can't get it to sound anything decent. In fact, stock sounded much better, sans loudness.
Please kindly share your settings, I would like to mimic them.
Thank you.

Viper 4 Android is really geared for headphone & IEM users TBH. for the regular speakers it just crackles and makes the experience worse

Tab S sound Boost, cannot find Mixer paths xml file? Help needed

I love my tab S and maybe this is the best screen I've seen my whole life.
But one thing bothers me that, I've been using the s and note devices from past 3 years, one thing I always did was Boost the sound for Speaker and the Headphone in the Mixer paths xml file.
I've searched this tab for a similar file and have got absolutely nothing.

I love my tab S and maybe this is the best screen I've seen my whole life.
But one thing bothers me that, I've been using the s and note devices from past 3 years, one thing I always did was Boost the sound for Speaker and the Headphone in the Mixer paths xml file.
I've searched this tab for a similar file and have got absolutely nothing.

Yes, this was a great help, but I am not able to understand what I have to increase in that file
To be specific I want my Earpiece (in call), headphones, and Speaker (both in call and music one) boosted
Can you help me with that?

You could install my ROM and use the DSP manager, it also uses mixerpaths though a more serious answer is look at the comments it should point u in the right direction.

I was just searching but couldn't find the right direction, actually M reluctant to move to Cm I don't like touchwiz but I want a fully functional stock ROM, saw the comments section couldn't make it what were you telling my friend
Can you please consider me a noob and help me out? :angel:
you can edit default_gain in system/etc
I thought xml edit only applied to CM/AOSP/GPe roms.
OP, did this end up working out for you?
I can't watch a movie without headphones on this nice device.
I need to boost up my tab s's volume too.

I've attached some screen shots to what you need to modify to increase your external speakers along with headphones.
You'll need Root Explorer or equivalent.
Let me know if it helped.
It's best to raise the digital volume it sounds less distorted ...my setting are +12 to all digital volumes and sounds great
Just to to clarify, you only need to raise the digital volume? I'm going to give it a shot.

Any way to do this without root?
Anybody tried this, the free version gets mixed reviews but the pro version (£2.00) get good ones.

I have tried that and multiple others. Some work well, some dont.
None have given me what I am looking for which it the ability to boost things like system volume, notification volume, etc. Still looking for a way to do that.
The best that I can accomplish is boosting media volume via a music or video player. If that is all you are looking for then the equalizer and bass booster will work fine.
