Audio Bug Fix [MM][LOLLIPOP][MIUI]

[phantom97]

The audio bug on our devices which cause the music to stutter and pause can be fixed by a very simple hack. You just have to download a kernel tweaking app, preferably kernel adiutor, and disable hotplugs from the hotplugs section. And manually enable two or more cores and voila music will never lag from now on!!!( even with viper4android or audiofx switched on ). Also you can preferably use AwesomePlayer instead of nuPlayer. This setting can be switched in Developer Options. For cm13 with default kernel you need to enable audio offload in the build.prop file in system directory.

Alternative / better method

Thanks @vicky romero

Great! I will try it later and give you feedback.

Have a question, about awesomeplayer. I never find it in my current rom. What rom do you use?

It's a Developer Options

I'm using Dirty Unicorn 10.2 but I never find that option in developers option as see in screenshot.

I cannot use custom kernel until some issues that I've experienced has been fix. So this feedback is for default kernel of DU.

I removed media storage in "don't optimize" state. I cannot retain to use only two cores because it dynamically change, so the only option that I change is mpdecision. I disabled mpdecision, I also use PowerAmp and enabled "use wakelock" under mics tweaks, then reboot.

I've surprised that I don't experienced annoying audio bug. I don't know the impact in battery but I really happy with the result.

This is initial because I've plan to use custom kernel and I will do this again if will replicate the result. Still, I'll give feedback in the future.

Thanks for the fix.

Do you still suffer from audio bug even if in lollipop?

 

[IvanX9]

I use Mokee 5.1 Lollipop (History versión) with STOCK kernel and I never face the music bug.
Nevertheless I know that changing into a custom kernel will bring me along the music bug.... That's why I want to know If this hack really works fine with custom kernels.
If it does for you, say Rom and Kernel, please. Thank you.

There isn't awesome player option on MM Rom. The awesome player option only exist on Lollipop Rom. I think the problem is on mpdecison cause I only change/disable mpdecision using kernel adiutor and the music bug is definitely gone.

This seems to work!! Oh.. man finally something which works.. but doing what the OP says to do so makes the phone a little bit hotter. But atleast the issue is gone! Thanks Bro! :highfive:

Yeah with xcelerate kernel i do

Try setting the max frequency to 300Mhz if you are only using your phone for audio. Btw nice signature

 

[s27moto]

[manuhackzzz]

tq brother i followed ur method music lag is no more on my redmi 1s , actually iam using xsop 6.1 rom with god's kernal music lag is not there ... tq so much ......

 

[phantom97]

@iam_babloo With God's kernel you can set the minimum cores screen off to two in the hotplug section and it won't bother you

yes its working bro.... tq so much

For now, I have added the code provided by @fefifofum in his thread to build.prop, you know the one which makes MPDecision to keep two cores always on. That kinda fixed the Audio bug :highfive: . But, the heating issue is still there though. But, that aint no big deal for me now!. So, :highfive:

And, Thanks!
