Stereo speaker mods? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers

So now that the the S8+ has been rooted, is there anyone working on a mod to enable the earpiece as a second speaker? When I had the nexus 5x, I immediately went for the stereo mod after rooting. The earpiece obviously wasn't as great but it was nice to have it anyways.

[Q] [Mod]Use Second Speaker on Xperia Z for Stereo Sound (Like Tablet Z)

Hey Dudes/Dev's
What i want:
I want to Create a Mod which us allow to use the Front Speaker+Side Speaker for Stereo Music
See Attached Pic...
I have tested the Loudness of the Front Speaker and i think the Volume Level is nearly the same to the Side Speaker!(?)
I want to let the Music play over the 2 Speakers like:
Front (Call-)Speaker=Left Audio Channel + Side (Loud-)Speaker=Right Channel=Stereo!?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steps:
-1. Find files which include the Speaker config. Maybe lib-so files?
-2. Find the right way to edit. Maybe i can compare the files between Tablet Z and Xperia Z to find the diffrence?
-#. Edit files to -> Playing Music-> 2 Speaker's active (2 Channels Left-Right),Call Option1-> 1 Speaker active,Call Option2-> 2 Speaker active
-3. Find a Way to make both Speaker's to the same Loudness Level
maybe more...
I really don't know what's needed for this so Please Help!

Good idea
Another excellent idea, though sound when watching movies is allready pretty good, true stereo imaging would be a massive plus.
Good luck with this

Thanks Guys!:fingers-crossed: only a thing of time
To bad that here is still no Dev. Section for things like that. This Thread will go fast to the last pages,and no one will see

Sounds like a good idea but then again, earpiece is not nearly as powerful as the main speaker and can result in funny stereo audio lol FYI, the stereo speaker positions are a bit weird
In order to achieve in what you want, we need to route all audio playback to play on two channels which is the earpiece and speaker at the same time. We can either do this on a specific configuration file or kernel modifications. I am not sure how to do this as I haven't tried before but it's a start
It's too bad that Sony did not make two speakers positioned like the HTC one... Would of been epic...

wow didnt see you Replied to this thread nice to hear from you...
It's really bad with the Speaker Position... sometimes my right hand mute the Speaker
but back to the idea... it's like you say,the Earpiece is not really Powerful (It's a really Clear Speaker,but no Bass) so you think it's not loud enough for stereo? Maybe we can use it to Support the other speaker (more Virtual Sound or such,i think you know whats good )
The Point is still to find out how we can use the second speaker :crying:
the only idea i have is to find the related files and watch the same files on a Stereo Speaker Tablet to see what we need to change...
when it works we have really found a General Mod for a lot of Devices with low Volume Speaker Devices.

You won't find any related files which will route your speaker and earpiece together.
We need to re-route the audio playback with earpiece and speaker activated at the same time to make both speakers to sound like stereo. If you compare with Tablet Z, you will not find anything because the configurations for that is to route audio playback to both the speaker components and if we do that then it still won't work because we don't have that 2nd speaker.
If we can re-route the speakers into stereo, then we can manually increase the earpiece to make it sound as loud as the main speaker
This is just an idea remember, I don't actually know how we will do this
Any progress on this excellent idea?

nexus 6 poor audio

Hi,
Is it me or has the nexus 6 have really bad audio from the headphone jack? full blast i can still hear around me. On my old phone htc m7 the headphone sound was amazing. Also i have noticed when playing from speakers, for the 1st second its loud then you can hear a slight decrease in sound. Like theres a sound limit. Anyone else had these issues?

speaker distortion

Is it only me or anyone else got tiny speaker distortion on highest volume??
Yes i noticed that too. What i did was root my device with Magisk and installed viper4android and turned on speaker optimization. Gets rid of distortion and makes the speaker sound better ??

◇Stereo Dual Speakers Surround Sound♤N910F/T/P/V/G/W8♤N910C/H

DISCLAIMER=WARNING PLEASE FLASH ON YOUR OWN RISK AND MAKE SURE TO HAVE A BACKUP ROM BEFORE TRY IT JUST INCASE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG.AND DONT BLAME ME IF YOUR SPEAKERS OR EARS DAMAGE BY THIS MOD IF YOU RAISE VOLUME TO MAX BECAUSE IT'S EXTREMELY LOUD.
Hello xda members.
If you want to get surround volume stereo speakers from note 4 like iphone7+/htc boom sound stereo this is a right place this mod will give you stereo surround sound from back speaker and front ear speaker and surround loud sound from headphones and also when your phone will ring the ring tone and notification sound will come from both back and front speakers
AFTER FLASHING IF YOU WANT TO CONFIRM THAT BOTH SPEAKERS FRONT AND BACK WORKING TOGETHER JUST PLAY ANY SONG OR RING TONE THEN COVER THE BACK MAIN SPEAKER WITH YOUR FINGER THEN YOU CAN HEAR SOUND COMING FROM FRONT EAR SPEAKER TOO. FRONT EAR SPEAKER VOLUME IS NOT LOUD OBVIOUSLY BECAUSE ITS NOT AN SPEAKER BUT WHEN YOU PLAY SONG THE SURROUND EFFECT YOU WILL GET FROM COMBINATION OF BOTH SPEAKERS ITS JUST AMAZING.
You must have custom recovery installed such as TWRP OR CWM in order to flash the zip file.

@ Trex888 Thanks a lot tried the medium volume for N910F and works great, but curiously how safe is the front speaker with using this mod for a long term use?
@mcfotty: Even Chinese smartphone makers test their phone with loudspeaker ON for hours. I am sure the Note4's earpiece speaker also went through rigorous testing, and some folks just use the loudspeaker all the time.
My device is like 3 years old now, getting slower and slower every day. At least there is something I can still get out of it. So, why not?
(Nvm just read N910C does not work. RIP.)

I am using this mod from over 3 months and no issues so far with speakers.
Just dont raise volume to max for too long it could possibly distorted the speaker sound.
Appreciate all your kind and timely responds and wondering if you can make this mod for n9100.....thanks

Not working on n910c erobot rom
Thanks for sharing this! On my 910T (Magma UX 1.0), using the loud version, it definitely works, but the rear speaker still over-powers the earpiece so it seems like it's not really working. Is this how it is supposed to be, or should the two volumes be more balanced? Thanks!

It's because front earpiece is not an speaker. the volume will be low because if it's loud it can damaged easily
Just replace the mixer path file (in the zip file) manually from N910F version on the N9100(dual sim Chn) and working great. Thanks for sharing the mod
Just tweak it for myself
Hi, can somebody tell me how to edin the power of back speaker (make it quiet) to "feel more stereo". What do I have to edit ? I see in etc two different mixer_paths. Thanks.

I've flashed the Medium and Regular zips via TWRP on my N910T (tried both), but only the ear piece speaker is firing. There is no sound out the of main speakers. I'm running the OvrDrive ROM and stock kernel.
Any ideas?
Thanks. :good:

Hmm ... yea I don't have either and I've even re-Odin'ed the stock firmware again just to be sure....
This is so strange. If all else fails on the software end of things then it's 'gotta' be hardware related... I'll report back after replacing the speaker to see if in fact it is a hardware issue....
Is there any mod for aosp pie rom?

Stereo Speakers During Calls

Hi there!
I was wondering if the earpiece speaker was supposed to work when you activate speaker mode during a call.
Currently I only get sound coming out from the bottom firing speaker during calls. I find the call quality and volume of the calls lacking because both speakers don't work in tandem.
I have a Pixel 4XL and just got it new out of the box yesterday. I use speakerphone a lot during conference calls and this is annoying.
Cheers! :good:
Been this way since Pixel 2.
Do other stereo phones even output speakphone to both speakers?
