HI,
I read some comments regarding sound quality of NC. It seems that some guys who use CM7 complained about bad sound quality. Is this true??? I am now using the booted 1.1 version and find that sound quality is average but at least not bad. Compare to my another android cellphone Moto Defy, the sound quality of NC is poor.
Is there a way that can improve sound quality of NC?
Is the sound quality of CM7 really worse than the stock version???

Sound quality or volume? I hear about people complaining about the volume, but not quality. How's the quality with earphones? Is it just the speaker?
I always use my NC in a case when I'm watching a movie or playing music, as it GREATLY amplifies the volume. Quality I haven't noticed an issue with, but never really done any critical listening, always just background music.

Earphone is better than speaker.....regarding the speaker....I think the only way I can hear the sound from the speaker is to stay at home...
I am always listening music when I am reading via NC. I am not satisfied with the sound quality compared to my another android cellphone. So I think about a way to improve sound quality. I want to play lossless audio music like APE & FLAC on the NC but I dont know how.........
On cm7 u can use dsp manager, it can improve quality by a great extent( use speaker volume to adjust headphones volume too).
If it's volume of the NC that you're concerned about, use volume+ app from http://androidaudiohacks.com/home/volume-gingerbread
But if you mean the quality, then I'm equally clueless about what to do.

I currently have an XDA IIs and the sound through the speaker is kinda meh, I'm thinking of getting a Touch Pro which I assume will have the same speaker as the Diamond and I'm wondering if you who have one will give me the heads up.
What's the quality/dynamic range like?
Is it loud?
Does it distort too much at higher volume levels?
I know some may question what I can expect from a phone speaker, lol, but there can be differences.
Thanks.
Not good. The sound is thin, so as the phone.
That was honest and helpful.
Thanks.

the sound from mine is fine, works like a charm.
The external speaker is for voice, if you want it to play "decent" music get some headphones or plug it into a stereo.
Could you tell me which music player you are using??
I am using the default player in TouchFlo3D. Tried built in speaker, bundled headphone, and my own headphone with 35mm mini plug adapter...all sound like old AM radio. No bass and high pitch is a bit scratchy.
Bluetooth A2DP + my headphone is much better, though far from perfect.

Of course I agree with you that we can't expect too much from the built in speaker.
Sound from external speaker
I have Pocket Player for my TD and it has an equalizer built in that you can customize. I have the sound from my external speaker sounding very good, ( I think) with Bass. It doesnt rock my pocket...but...its much better than it was. I find it very acceptable.
not good for mp3 ringtone it like the speaker cant Handle it
the sound get crap when you turn up the volume

Of course. This is the answer

I come from a nokia 7710 (first real touch screen in the world) and that speaker was LOUD, the one on Diamond is kindo bad. Forget about bassss.
gbye.
Yeah, I think the problem is not just the quality, but the loudness too.
If you use this with a Sat nav program (e.g., TomTom), at the maximum volume the audio commands are not loud enough when driving and with the car's radio on
Anybody knows of any trick/tweak to modify the volume range on Diamond, even if it gets distorted, as I really just need loudness for sat nav directions.
Hello Everyone,
I have a Moto Milestone. I would like to use Milestone as MP3 player. I plugged the original Milestone headset and the sound quality was awful. There was no sub bass at all!) From that time, I used my previous phone (Nokia N73) as MP3 player (it's sound is extremely good compare to Milestone.)
Today I got a Nokia headset with a voice call button on it. I plugged it to my Milestone and the sound was awful, BUT if I push the button on the Headset the sound of the Milestone become extremely beautiful, I hear sub basses and higher sounds too.
Can anyone has idea for this? Can someone tell me, how will such a good voice come from Milestone's original headset?
Thanks.

Hi There,
There is no one, who has this problem?
I just use DSP Manager and poweramp's EQ to adjust the audio. Now I get really good audio from it after massive tweaking.
Still not as good as my old Archos Gmini400.
Also I re-read your post and that thing with the headset button is weird as hell.
I just use fairly high end headphones. (AKG K518LE)

Thanks for the answer. But it is true. I use a Sony-Ericsson X10 mini's headset and if I push the button in the headset, the sound quality became as same as my Sennheiser HD435.
I'm thinking about short-circuited the headset's button ...
The sound output from the speakers while playing any MP3
songs etc is pretty low. I could hardly hear the music, though
the sound quality thru the head phones is awesome.
(I use a Media player application called PowerAmp.)
Initially I thought that this low volume and quality is due
to hardware limitations..internal amp and the speakers
located at the bottom of the phone.
The other day I tried out a Game called "Jetcar Stunts" .
( This game has good built in sound effects )
Surprisingly, the sound level and quality was superb !
I couldn't imagine that the Phone could have this output level.
So its all linked to the SW now..which means there is hope
we can soon find a good media player for this Phone to
display its real power.
It is really a good phone.
PowerAMP amplify the speaker or u can use volume+
I tried that apk..but not much improvement.
I believe the Hardware is there to produce good quality
sound from the LG P990 speakers.
Bust somehow the SW is unable to make use of it.
But , that game 'JetCar Stunts' seems to have got over
this shortcoming.
Already disscussed before. Hope voodoo plus will add speaker add on soon. My ringtone are so high and of good quality. I don't understand why music is so low
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
just get cm7 with inbuilt dspmanager... that with the eq you can adjust the output
Hello there,
I have made some video recordings with the phone, at several (plenty) concerts and when I re-view the videoclips the sound is terrible, there is too much bass, you can't hear anything. My wife's Galaxy S2 records videoclips with very clear sound.
Is there a way to make the sound from the videos to sound more clearly? (I repeat, only on high music volume, like concerts and stuff)
Thank you!

I think this "phenomenon" happens with most phones, most cheap camera's. I'd say it's just a matter of adjusting the sound input volume while/before recording, but we can't do that. There is just 1 lvl of sound we can record in. High end devices deal with these things better.
I tought so, uh well at least I can record with my wife's SGS 2 )
Can someone comment on the music player audio quality and how it compares to viperaudio mod? If it is subpar, what music player are you using? I'm on verizon so viperaudio is not an option until/if we get root. Thanks in advance.

My experience so far has been good. Through the 3.5mm headphone jack it plays really well through my car stereo, nice dynamic sound with pretty low distortion. More base heavy than I would go for but definitely well rounded. The phone speaker itself I find a little distorted due to the big base but it depends on your style of music and volume levels. The volume goes quite high also.
I'm comparing this to my last phone which was the nexus 5, personally I felt the nexus 5 volume was too low and lacked any base and made it sound tinny because of it. Even with viper audio I was never satisfied with it. The Moto x on the other hand got a few smiles from me with how it handled some of my favorite tracks on my commute.
The last phone I can remember really enjoying my music on was the galaxy s1 international version with voodoo music mod. That was quite a while though and honestly can't remember it enough to compare. Still, maybe that gives you some indication to what I would be looking for audio wise
Im using Apollo for my music player and the sound is great. If u have upgraded to 5.0 theres a built in EQ under settings/sound where u can modify how it sounds thru headphones and front speakers.
That's also in 4.4
