[CM12.1/CM11] SoundFix Ultimate

[marouane80]

Hi everybody,

This mod will fix every sound issue (sound recorder, camcorder, audio playback...)

Flash works only on twrp recovery !
For official CM12.1 recovery don't flash ! just unzip and copy the files inside and set permissions.

Update : google voice command fixed
Everything works now perfectly !:fingers-crossed:

Hi everybody,

Today i have a great surprise for every cyanogenmod user !

This mod will fix every sound issue (sound recorder, camcorder... yes anything you can imagine !)

Where is mod?

Where is mod?

Up

There are :
- some missing files (audio_platform_info.xml)
- some errors (audio_effects.conf) : DSP broken on PowerAMP in the last update from CyanogenMod (aug.29)
- media_profiles.xml (60fps) / mixer_paths.xml and build.prop were tweaked => clear sound (audio and video recording)

Everything is fixed now !

Enjoy

 

[marouane80]

What' up man ? are you happy now ?

 

[djdana]

Thanks works better than the original

 

[marouane80]

New update out (OP).

Please flash over the new nightly from 13.09.2014 and up !

Could you explain what this "fix" does in a bit more detail (e.g. what was broken before). Because I think this thread is going to rot and be forgotten because of no proper info on changes... People usually want to know exactly what they flash.

Did you do any volume boosting?

Just saying...

There are a lot of modifications on : build.prop, media_profiles.xml and mixer_paths.xml :

- Z1c doesn't have stereo speaker or mic. I tweaked mixer_paths.xml and media_profiles.xml for this.
- FPS on video recorder was increased on media_profiles.xml (smooth video at 60 fps with better background)
- CyanogenMod always forget to put a file called "audio_platform_info.xml" on amami builds (without this file recorded sound feels crapy) and there are some errors on audio_effects.xml that doesn't match with soundfx and audio_policy.msm8974.so (it brokes DSP Manager on PowerAMP)

No Volume Boost ! (it makes only distorsion and had no effect on sound quality)
This mod is for pure and clear sound as it should be on z1 compact. It's not a placebo !

That's all !

insert a coin and try

Thanks for your work.

Have you tried to get those changes merged into the official CM11 source?

 

[amnher]

is this needed by all non stock roms? (e.g. AOSPA, AOKP, CarbonROM, OmniRom etc.)

i don't use all these roms, make a backup and try to see

Will try this out, thanks! Could you perhaps provide a zip that reverts the changes, in case something happens? And I guess I need to reflash this every time I flash a new nightly?

Cheers!

Backup before flash??

Backup before flash??

I always do that, just thought it might be easier & faster to flash a restore file, just in case. But everything seems to work so far

Do you have clear sound recording and smooth video without this mod ?

 

[Barracuda77777]

Excellent

@marouane80

you are a genius, Now I can start using my Z1, the problem with Mic was the only reason this phone never left my drawer, with your fix (I had to edit build prop to make it work with Z1) now the microphone when using speaker phone is comparable to my nexus 5.

thank you very much indeed
