Although historically the Dolby and other sound enhancements didn't work well on other phones or required complex procedures beyond the lay person, for this new phone it is a different matter.
XDA has a tradition of porting Sony's strength in phone sound quality to enhance other phones. In particular sirdoha's work comes to mind. Unfortunately in 2020 it is now up to new users to enjoy some harmless porting. Given that porting will not be successful due to DRM, I believe that extracting DSEE Ultimate and Sony'tuned Atmos would at least be a good start.
I require assistance because Android is very difficult.
From xperifirm software a set of folders can be unpacked into .sin files.
Then use https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-unsin-sin-v3-unpacker-t3128106/amp/ to unpack sin into img or ext files. The problem is that although there are some individual files and an apk for sound enhancements within the 'super' sin file, the actual content of the features is nowhere to be found.
Why does any of this matter?
https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...ee-hx-ai-dsee-ultimate-dsee-extreme-do.14832/
tells why.
dsee-ultimate is a game-changer, and with it as the tool for playback, streaming services can equal hires downloads. It is in the interest of streaming services to have enthusiasts use dsee-ultimate even on non-Sony devices, until Sony ports dsee-ultimate over to Music Center/Songpal app in the Play Store. It also helps wireless headphones equal the quality of wired headphones. There is no doubt at all that our work here is urgent and imperative until Sony ports dsee-ultimate over to Music Center around October this year.

Please help me.

[Q] how to use BackgroundAudioPlayer in WP8.1 SilverLight

Hi everyone I tried to use BackgroundAudioPlayer many times on WP8.1 Silverlight but couldn't be played anything
Now I started searching about what's going wrong I found tht :
The AudioPlayerAgent and AudioStreamingAgent classes, which supported background audio playback for Windows Phone 8 apps, are not supported in Silverlight 8.1. If you want to support background audio playback, you can continue to use a Windows Phone 8 app or create a Windows Phone Store app, which supports new background audio APIs.

What is the solution or other way to run same thing as BackgroundAudioPlayer in 8.1 silverlight ?
Are you expecting us to tell you something other than what's already in the quoted blob?
Option 1) Use Silverlight for 8.0, not 8.1
Option 2) Make a Windows Phone Store app and use the new background audio APIs (first search response for "Windows Phone Store" background audio

I need only to open this control :

Is it possible with any other ways except MediaPlayer Class and BackgroundAudioPlayer ?
Thank you GoodDayToDie
Hmm, not sure how to cause that control to display on the screen programmatically. It's easy to make the app update it and get events from button presses on it, though.

e-Cigarette Mod with a touch screen and music capabilities - firmware upgradeable

Hey there guys, I'm writing in the off topic section about this e-cigarette I've just got, it's called Joyetech Ocular C and it comes with a color touch screen , music player and photo viewer capabilities , bluetooth conectivity, a pedometer to count your steps and from what I understand, it has around 2Gb of memory , it is firmware upgradeable and I'm wondering if there is more that can be done to it in therms of functionality.
It's true that vapers, the people who smoke e-cigarettes as their called, dont really need any of this functionality in their devices since they mainly use them purely for smoking, it's nice however to have something a little extra to go with it.
I've looked online for custom firmwares or methods to customise your firmware for these type of devices, but i've only found info on old devices that come with small monochrome screens and the most you can do is upload logos on to the device.
My interests are on how you can access the root of the system built into these devices since it must have a processor and a file sistem inside, how to edit some of these files , per example, you have the option to upload around 100 pictures and some songs ( the memory on it is 2GB ) but there's no way of deleting them once uploaded, in case your storage gets full.
Also it would be nice if users could implement or extent more functionality in the device, par example it only suports .jpeg files in the photo viewer , .png &/or .gif to use as a screen saver would be nice, more so even video playback capability .
And before I get laffed at for asking so much out of an electronic cigarette, I think that since it does come from the factory with all these functionalities and hardware, it's a shame they dont use it to it's fullest.
So is there anyone having any clues on how to "get inside" these devices and tuning them up ?
I've included the latest firmware I could find for the device as well as the program they offer for you to upload it onto the device. If anybody could crack it opn and take a look inside and see at least what's in there, that would be a start.

[SoundMod] [MIUI] Sharing Quasar Atmox and guides for Install [Fully Working]

Features included:
Viper's Audio || Dolby Atmos®
Xperia™ Audio Enhancement || xLOUD™ || ClearAudio+
Dirac HD || Beats Audio™
[Fully working, even the Sound Enhancement app]
Hi. I'm sharing a great sound mod made by @nitesh9 (thanks to him) in this thread. It was the first mod which made me a lot happier both of its sound quality and simplicity(but complex to install in our roms). I'm giving instructions for safe install for it, because there are some side effects and bugs on Nougat. Follow the instructions to install it perfectly.
Original Thread Link(pay a visit)
Downloads: v 4.0
Installer
Uninstaller
Instructions:
For MIUI:
Install QA 4.0 in TWRP. Reboot and you will get "no Processing" in Viper and also Dolby.- Just edit in build.prop in Viper tweaks section or add an extra line at the bottom.
audio.deep_buffer.media=true

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now reboot and it should work fine.
*In MIUI MM(6.0), nothing is needed to edit, just flash and enjoy.
Edit: *You have to set Se-Linux Permissive or you will be gifted with high CPU usages.
*only tested on Stock MIUI 8(QA 3.0, without Sound Enhancement app), 9 and 10.
Beware, it won't work in MIUI Oreo.
For Custom ROMs(MM, N):
It's not fully working, mostly the Sound Enhancement of Sony, but another thing may work.
Install sound mod, and reflash your rom. (don't flash sound mod again. It's for the high CPU usages fix.)
How to test Sony Sound Enhancement app:
Play a song in Sony Music, open Audio Settings, click Clear Audio+ or any other useful things. The sound will then pause and play again. This means its working. And you will feel the difference.
Good news is that Sound Enhancement works in Google Play Music. Have fun with Google Assistant.
Cautions:
Never ever use any other sound mod with this one. You may use ad ones from the original thread. I've tested some. Faced some impatient bugs. Whether you face or not, its your responsibility.
The good thing is that it has much natural sound effects without tweaking much, and containing some convolvers(Audiophile Profile needed) in Viper4android which will give you greater sound quality like PC (I don't like to use it though, made sound unnatural). Use Audiophile Profile from his thread, one of the best settings in Viper4android.
*For Oreo, Dolby is not working. Other things may or may not work.
Notice(just ignore it): Sometimes audio through DSP does not work. Playing/pausing music and looking at CPU usage through app like Android Assistant will help you find. I've it enabled. Sometimes it works sometimes doesn't, pausing and after a few seconds playing again few times solved the issue sometimes.
*audio through dsp can give us up to 2x battery life while playing music(and it will lower little quality too)
audio.offload.disable=false
*thread has been updated.

Bad Bluetooth audio quality?

Hi. I'm about to get this phone. I borrowed it for few hours from my friend to check some things.
Currently I'm on P20 pro and I have a problem with Bluetooth audio in note 9.
Take a note, it's not something that average "Joe" would be able to hear.
My headphones doesn't support aptx but it doesn't matter because I'm comparing the sound that I got on p20 pro and note 9 (exynos, but it doesn't matter for bluetooth I guess).
I bought my Bluetooth headphones (JBL) mainly because I was tired of choosing my future phones by DAC quality. In theory Bluetooth headphones should sound always exactly the same, because digital to analog converter is located in headphones.
Now the thing is it doesn't. I noticed FAR worse frequency separation on note 9. P20 pro output (and not only p20 pro, my PC, TV as well) is more... How to put it... Punchy? Especially with hi percussion and snares. Additionally high freqs are hissy and upped too much. I tried with Poweramp and direct audio (bypass all Samsung software audio eqs etc) with exactly the same settings on both phones.
It's seems that Samsung screwed up somthing on audio encoder level. Exactly the same was S8+.
And it seems that it's not only me:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/help/bluetooth-audio-bad-quality-t3622984
Is there any way to do something with it? This thing is keeping me from switching.
In developers settings have you set the bluetooth audio codec etc.? If not first try changing those settings and see. See the screenshot , you'll see the address numerous settings which should improve your sound quality.

That stuff usually gets reset when you re-pair your headphones. I've never heard a difference in quality when using them (and I can be picky about audio).

Can't use LDAC via WF-1000XM3 from Verizon LG V40(Pie)

So I just picked up the Sony WF-1000XM3, which are great for me(as a wireless audio solution), but I just noticed that these are connecting via AAC, and changing the developer options for codec/ Bluetooth Audio LDAC Codec: Playback quality doesn't seem to want to stick.
I can change the settings, but if I window out, go back, or close the options, the Codec changes back to streaming AAC when I look again.

If I never noticed it, I could have probably have just been ignorant of the fact, but now that I know I can't ignore it, and it's driving me insane. please help.

I can tell you from my experience with wh 1000xm3 and v50.
First after pairing go through Bluetooth connection and hit settings on the headphones. Select high quality instead best stability.
Then also in the headphones and music center apps select best the Bluetooth connection to best quality- ldac. So in 3 different areas you should select.
You can should be good to go.

I just got a set of the Sony WF-1000XM3 and use them with my V30. Check the specs, I believe that the Sony WF-1000XM3 doesn't support LADC, only AAC. They still sound great, the best bluetooth buds I've tried.
