Hey everybody,
I guess I was not the only one being a bit disappointed that google didn´t make adaptive audio available for the Pixel 4 devices as well.
To be honest I personally think it´s a bit of a gimmicky feature that´s not very critical, but making it exclusive to Pixel 5 left a bitter after taste.
Here´s how to enable the feature persistent across reboots on a rooted device:
1. Download the pixel 5 device personalization app from apkmirror and install the app:
2. Flash the attached magisk module Adaptive_Audio_Settings_Enabler.zip via magisk manager app and do a reboot.
Wait a few minutes after the phone booted successfully and the entry in settings will appear.
Manual command method, doesn´t survive reboots but works on unrooted devices as well:
1. Download the pixel 5 device personalization app from apkmirror and install the app:
2. Make sure to have USB Debugging enabled via developer options and have a working adb environment. Then connect your phone to pc.
3. Type the following:
4. then type (this step is not needed)
grant superuser permission in the window that opens on your phone.
5. Now paste the following commands:
You can enable it now in settings and try the feature for yourself.
A few notes here:
I´m unsure how much profit this feature really gives, even on the Pixel 5. When enabling it on my 4XL the sound gets a bit more bassy.
Judging from the logs it should be working as it is with the steps described above. It might be that it´s tuned towards the Pixel 5, but well... Having options is always nice
The guide with the manual commands works without root, for those that don´t like to run rooted. I was able to disable and enable the feature back again without the need for root. Maybe some apps can execute scripts without root on the phone so it will stay across reboots. Somebody else has to figure this out though.
Have fun with it
