[MOD][Aroma]StereoMOD™ & S-Force Z/ZR/ZL v4.0 (10/10/14)

I am happy to present my StereoMOD™ based on dontbelieve mod from Z1. I did modify XZ snd_soc_msm files so that they will output Speaker and Earpiece at the same time like in Z1 mod.
What will this do?
Achieve real Stereo and surround sound effect from both left and right channels by using earpiece as additional speaker.
To test out rotate the device to landscape and try some stereo video or music.
Try this:
-Left/Right Stereo Audio/Visual Test.: http://youtu.be/dvqbq_0jZ_U
-Dolby Digital - HD Surround Sound Test: http://youtu.be/PvnlpPWAcZc
Disclaimer
I am not responsible for any damage caused by this mod. Eg, your phone is broken, you miss any important call, alarm didn't go off and you were late for work, or your earpiece is busted. It's your own risk. Proceed with Caution, you have been warn.
Requirement:
Xperia Z, Xperia ZR or Xperia ZL
Stock, or Stock Base 4.3-4.4.4, Dirty Unicorn v7.8(4.4.4), KMA AOSPA 30/07 or possibly all custom roms, u name it?
recovery installed
4-way rotation enabled, if auto channel swapping is selected.

Manual Installation: obsolete
Unzip the package
Copy snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 from the package
Replace this file in to /system/etc/snd_soc_msm folder
Set permission -rw-r--r--(644).
And Reboot!
Not satisfied just yet? (obsolete)
How about having full control over the volume for both speaker and earpiece?
Open the snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 file that you just replaced and edit with editor. I recommended using 920 Text Editor or DroidEdit on mobile which could run such a big code.
Go to line #2966, you will see that the following code is related to speaker. Scroll down to line #2985 and #2986, you will see these code:
'RX1 Digital Volume':1:73
'RX3 Digital Volume':1:71​RX1 is Earpiece and RX3 is Loudspeaker. Change these blue values will effect the volumes for xLoud off.
If you scroll down alittle bit to line #3010, you'll noticed instantly that it is related to xLoud on. Do the same to Line #3029 and #3030.
'RX1 Digital Volume':1:74
'RX3 Digital Volume':1:72​Change these values will effect volumes for xLoud on. Becareful not to raise RX1 volume too high, it might fry your earpiece. Both of their stock default value is 68. You take full responsible for your own tweak.
How about swapping left and right channels? with the cost of broken Loudspeaker during call (obsolete)
As now you are familiar with the code. I'll go short this time.
Modify these Lines between line #2972 and line #2975.
'RX3 MIX1 INP1':0:RX1
'RX3 MIX1 INP2':0:RX6
'RX1 MIX1 INP1':0:RX2
'RX1 MIX1 INP2':0:RX7​And these Lines between line #3016 and line #3019
'RX3 MIX1 INP1':0:RX1
'RX3 MIX1 INP2':0:RX6
'RX1 MIX1 INP1':0:RX2
'RX1 MIX1 INP2':0:RX7​All you have to do is to replace all RX3 with RX1 and all RX1 with RX3 in the BLUE values. And you're done.

Thank you for porting this mode to ZR:good:
I'm so happy, good job

Waiting for more reviews, Im still unrooted. Hesitant as its my new phone. But I like the idea and will try it.

Worked
Downloaded the 1.2 Version and the sounds are reverted (I rotated my device to left landscape and when i tried the youtube test, the sound was revert, anyways, I hope it could be more balanced as the earpiece is not that too noticeable

Tried first time, Its good and thanks for still working with ZR group
request:
1. In call also, the volume is stereo which must not be in that way I guess
2. The treble is way too high in earphones in comparison to bass and mids which is kindof irritating to ears. (I'm using Sony MDR-EX110LP earphones)
EDIT: also the experimental Left/Right interchange on ratation is not working

Thanks for ur feedback. The auto channel swapping is not really working the way it should yet. It will only be swapped upon portrait and portrait upside down orientation. Their for 4 way rotation must be enabled. Therefore, rotate upside down first before entering landscape. A demo on how it works will be posted later!
Edit: 1) incall speakerphone stereo is the only thing that i can't achieve right now.
2) High treble is the hardware limitation of the earpiece. It wouldn't be able to sound as deep as speaker. However, this mod is more preferable on Xperia Z, since Xperia Z main speaker goes through water proof membrane. So it doesn't sound much of a difference between both speakers.

Working great!!!! thank you

Reboot
**HINTS**​
Safe Usage​
Lower all android volumes to below 50% (system, in-call & media volume, etc) BEFORE installing for the first time (to ensure vol is not set to high upon initial activation).
Do not use high volume for long periods of time.
Your general listening volume levels should be set between 25%-75%
Only use max volume (75%-100%) for quiet sources as even the main speaker can distort at high volume.
When using your device in landscape: ensure buttons face up so the handset speaker is on your left and the main speaker is on your right (rotating your device will not change left/right output).
To equalise speakers; adjust the L:R balance/pan in your default AudioFX App or favourite media player, if the setting is available make L>R.
If you also have 3rd party sound enhancement/processing mods or libraries installed (EG Viper4android, Dolby, Sony, Beats, etc) then; It is recommended to use a balanced-soft-medium release as the volume increase in the louder releases may be too much and cause distortion &/or impact sound quality.

I installed the boosted variant/edition on my moto g3 (osprey) along side the xtrememusic mod and gotta say..
Bravo man, bravo
...I like how the earpiece is a tad lower than the main speaker...like the HTC 10 sound (top speaker is for treble and bottom is for bass)

**WARNING**
The handset speaker on this device is not designed for media-audio playback and is not capable of matching the max volume or quality of the main speaker.
After installing this mod you should not play audio at high volume for long periods of time if you are concerned about damaging your speakers.

*MixerMod Editions*​Overview
From balanced -> loud
The main/right speaker volume increases and the handset/left is constant.
The handset speaker (left) has now been activated at max volume but it is still significantly softer than the main speaker (right) by upto 30dB at default ±0dB
Due to this limitation the only way to achieve L:R balance is to reduce the main speaker volume proportionately.
The balanced edition addresses this issue with ±2dB variance but the softest main spkr (right) & overall volume.
Considering the overall volume reduction of the balanced edition may not be practical or necessary for everyday use;
I have created separate editions with different volume levels within safe min/max range to hopefully suit most use cases and device setups.
The different editions can now be used to achieve the best available L:R balance for your desired overall volume;
If one edition is to loud/unbalanced then try the next edition down in volume
If one edition is to soft then try the next one up in volume
If you want a custom package just ask
Tech Spec
Activated: ±0dB for all outputs and ±0dB master volume (NOT balanced)
Details of other editions below
The following editions apply +10dB to the left spkr volume and ±0dB in-call
Balanced: -20dB to right/main speaker volume
Soft: -10dB to right/main speaker volume
The following editions apply +10dB to the left spkr volume and +2dB in-call
Medium: -4dB to right/main speaker volume
Loud: ±0dB to right/main speaker volume
The following editions apply +12dB to the left spkr volume and +2dB in-call
Boosted: +2dB to right/main speaker volume
All editions (excluding activated) include the following audio tweaks;
Master volume: +2dB
Headphones/tty digital volume: +2dB
Handset/Left speaker output gain: x4

*FAQ*​
Q: What does this mod do ?
A: Improves output audio quality by modifying system file/s for the hardware controlled audio configuration.
Checks device compatibility
Installs a modified /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml file for audio routing, output, volume/gain, etc
Preserves existing/stock system file/s as .bak until restored
Installs /system/addon.d survival script to preserve mod files across ROM flash/wipe
Includes the latest updates, fixes & cherrypicks from multiple sources (Vendor/AOSP/CM)
Q: Do Left and Right speakers output stereo or mono sound ?
A: Stereo.
This mod routes the Left audio channel to (only) the upper Handset speaker and the Right audio channel to (only) the Lower Main speaker.
Factory default routes both channels to only the lower main speaker for mono output.
Q: Are you sure the handset speaker is working ?
A: Yes, output is a lot lower than the main speaker due to device limitations.
To test put your finger over the main speaker or adjust L:R balance/pan so R=0 or L>R
Q: Is this mod safe to use ?
A: Yes; provided you do not manually modify the system files yourself (ie to increase the volume further or make other changes).
Q: Will this damage my speakers or ears ?
A: No, Provided you adhere to all warnings/instructions and do NOT modify any relevant system files manually.
Volume/Gain for all outputs are set to a safe level.
Q: Has anyone bricked or broken their device using this mod ?
A: No damage to any device has been reported due to using this mod, nor similar mods for other devices.
HOWEVER it is still recommended to make a Nandroid backup of /system before installing, not to playback audio at high volume for lengthy periods and do not make manual modifications to system files.
Q: I have a compatible device but the mod will not install or flash !
A: Please report details here and provide from build.prop your ro.product.device value and if possible any relevant log files such as /cache/recovery/last_log, logcat, etc,
Q: Is this mod compatible with xyz device ?
A: This mod is currently only compatible with recent Qualcomm Snapdragon based devices that use the onboard soundcard only.
Q: Can I try this mod with a device not listed as compatible?
A: Not recommended unless confident of h/w similarities to confirmed devices. Advise posting a request here with your mixer_paths.xml & device details so I can provide a test package.
Q: I still want to try this on an un-approved device on my own !
A: Test at your own risk but do not be surprised if you can no longer boot or experience audio issues/failure;
Flash a Test Release, as Stable Releases are restricted to approved devices only (see OP) or manually extract & install mixer_paths.xml as per OP.
Q: Should I expect any issues after installing ?
A: No
MixerMod has been confirmed to be error free & stable for all compatible devices listed in OP.
(may work on devices with similar h/w; post your mixer_paths.xml if you wish to test on a new device)
Q: After installing this MixerMod I have errors, problems, questions or requests to report !
A: Post in this thread with your original mixer_paths.xml(.bak)
Include as much relevant detail as practical: Device, ROM, kernel, any & all active sound mods or libraries, + non-stock audio settings/FX, etc
Q: What are your testing variables ?
A: Before any release I first test the new audio settings for a lengthy period of time on a Moto-G3 XT1550 osprey with different settings & variables to ensure no adverse effects:
MM 6.0.x ROMs
Custom kernels
Stock/built-in AudioFX, on vs off
3rf Party AudioFX apps/libraries
eg ViPER4Android, Dolby, Sony, Beats, etc
Multiple MultiMedia apps/players
eg Spotify, Poweramp, SonyMusic, GoogleMusic, Soundcloud, etc
Other sound/audio mods
eg eXtremeMusic, ExtremeBeats, Project Desire, etc
Various Headphones, IEM and external speakers
Built-in speakers with music, video, podcast & audio-test signals
Different environments & ambient noise levels
Volume/Balance measurements tested/recorded with a basic dB soundmeter.
Final field test and selection of each release/edition based on realworld results, compatibility and my personal experience.
Q: What are the Limitations of this mod ?
A: It will not walk your dog, laugh at your jokes or save you from an alien invasion.
I do not currently have access to suitable pro sound equipment so dB measurements for volume & balance are obtained via a basic soundmeter from another handset.
L:R Speaker orientation is locked ie Rotating your device will NOT swap Left/Right channels
Different sized h/w speaker drivers (handset vs main); to compensate for the smaller handset speaker this mod reduces the main speaker volume to achieve better L:R balance.
NB Without reducing the main speaker stereo sound would not be practical as the main speaker is too loud.
No 3rd party soundcard/DAC/DSP to utilise (ie only onboard Qualcom Snapdragon Hexagon processing is available for this device)

*Guides*​
General Inquiries
If you want me to make a custom file/mod for your specific setup (I'm happy to), are requesting a change to this mod, testing your own mod, reporting an error, tweaking your setup or just sharing your settings for others, then;
Post here or PM me, and include
Your desired changes
Original un-modified /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml(.bak) file
Details of your sound & device setup IE model, ROM, kernel, mods, etc
Specify any & all active sound mods/libraries + non-stock audio settings
To manually adjust your L:R speaker volume and achieve equal balance; Try A, B or C as follows.
A) via ROM audioFX app, your preferred media player w/pan, or a custom soundFX mod:
Adjust Left:Right output settings so L>R under Balance/Pan according to your preference.
**WARNING**
The following manual steps can be dangerous if a mistake is made and/or volume/gain is set to high/low so only do this if you are confident, have read all the provided info, follow the instructions implicitly and of course;
do so at your own risk, accepting all responsibility if any damage occurs.
B) via a file manager (root + RW /system)
edit/open file /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml in a text editor
Search or scroll for MixerMod under <path name=speaker />
Make your changes to XX for;
<ctl name='RX1 Digital Volume' value=XX />
<ctl name='RX3 Digital Volume' value=XX />
Where;
RX1=Left handset speaker
RX3=Right main speaker
XX sets the volume as a number between 74 and 94 in 1dB increments (stock=0:84 ±0dB)
Play some media and set Android volume <50%
Reboot to apply your changes
Test your changes & repeat the above until you are happy with the volume and balance
If you want to post your new settings please make sure to include any & all sound mods/libraries + non-stock audio settings.
C) Test temporary volume/gain levels live:
Start playing some media
NB I recommend a long playlist with varied but short music/video selections as when media focus shifts your changes will revert.
Run the following code from a terminal
Code:
su
tinymix 'RX1 Digital Volume' XX
tinymix 'RX3 Digital Volume' XX
Speaker: RX1=Left and RX3=Right
Headphones: RX1=Left and RX2=Right
Adjust XX and re-do the above until you are happy with the volume & balance
To save your desired settings edit /system/mixer_paths.xml accordingly (see above) then reboot.

Which edition/s have you tried?
Do you have any other sound mods or libraries installed?
FYI
*Only the balanced release aims for equal L:R speaker volume as achieving this greatly reduces the main speaker volume.
*The L:R difference on my test device (osprey, stock, no other sound mods) with balanced edition ends up 0-3dB, varying slightly per frequency.
I am hesitant to lower the main speaker much more than it is already for this one but can do if requested.
*Stock/default/flat there is generally approx 30dB difference between the two speakers on this device, which is a lot for this scenario.
So perfect balance may not be practical for many situations.
*Currently L:R balance will even out as you choose a quieter edition of MixerMod (see the OP for more details).
*Volume levels for most releases can be tweaked so feedback is welcome but please provide device/setup info!
edit: Added this info to OP

i had balanced but noticed that the loudspeaker(the earpiece speaker) was a bit louder than the real speaker

The soft edition from OP will increase the main spkr a few knotches (10dB)
I've attached some alternate editions for you in case you only need a small change;
balanced2 will only reduce the handset spkr by 2dB
balanced3 will only increase the main spkr by 4dB
Alternatively
Run the below command/s in a terminal while audio is playing then let me know your results and I'll post a new edition for you.
(tinymix changes only last for that audio session)
Adjust main/right spkr
Code:
su
tinymix 'RX3 Digital Volume' 68
raise/lower the number until you are happy (OP balanced = 64 and stock = 84)
Adjust the handset/left spkr
Code:
su
tinymix 'RX1 Digital Volume' 92
raise/lower the number until you are happy (most OP editions = 94 which is generally the max without distortion)

Would this be safe to use alongside the xtrememusic mod?

Sure is !
Currently MixerMod will not conflict with any other sound mods, though you may need to try different MixerMod Editions to get your desired sound/volume/balance.
Pls report results here for others with same setup.

There is a native headphone boost etc included in MixerMod and I can confirm it works very well in combo with V4A !
RE speakers; I would recommend to start with a balanced/soft/medium edition of MixerMod if you also use 3rd party sound libraries eg @guitardedhero 's Viper|Atmos packages, Sony, Beats, etc

Go for it, just set n forget !
no need to reflash MixerMod after a ROM upgrade addon.d survival script is included.
You should see a few messages from MixerMod in recovery during the process to let you know it's doing its thing...it will even backup the unmodified files from the new ROM before patching so you're never in danger.

Installed the boosted variant along side the xtrememusic mod and gotta say..
Bravo man, bravo ??
And actually I kinda like how the earpiece is a tad lower than the main speaker, kinda how I imagine the HTC 10 would sound (since the top speaker is for treble and bottom is for bass)
And yes I installed it on my moto g3 (osprey)
Disregard my signature ?

[Brought to you by a collaboration of Ainur and ARISE]​
Description of the issue:
The issue with all Oreo ROMs for mi max 2 right now, is that there is very apparent audio distortion at max volume.
The reason for that is this:
The phone uses a stereo setup with the earpiece acting as the left channel and the bottom loudspeaker acting as the right channel.
Of course those two speakers are not of the same quality or meant to play the same frequencies.
Reading a bit around the official miui forum you will find that the earpiece speaker is meant as a treble speaker playing mid to high frequencies and the bottom loudspeaker as a woofer playing low to mid frequencies or even high ones since it can.
Using an aosp Oreo ROM though loses that optimization and treats the two unequal speakers as equal with the result of having the earpiece rattle heavily when it must play a frequency under 550hz.
Using an equalizer such as the one included in Dolby Atmos Axon 7, to reduce every frequency Lower than 500hz worked to remove the rattle from the earpiece but also removed the bass from the bottom loudspeaker, which isn't the ideal solution.
The final solution was to implement a high filter pass (suggested by UltraM8/Sovetnikov from Ainur), which was elaborated upon and implemented by Joe0Bloggs from ARISE.
Description of included impulses:
If your left channel is the earpiece and the right channel is the bottom speaker, (which is true for mi max 2) you need one of the following impulses:
1) Hi-Low Speakerphone HiL:
Which simply applies a high filter pass of 500hz to the left channel
2) Hi-Low Speakerphone 4-Way HiL:
Which applies a high filter pass of 500hz to the left channel but also redirects those left channel frequencies that are cut-off and merges them with the right channel.
So in the scenario that the left and right channel have a difference you will he able to hear it instead of it being just cut-off
If your right channel is the earpiece and the left channel is the loudspeaker, (which may be true for other phones with a similar issue) you need one of the following impulses:
1)Hi-Low Speakerphone HiR:
Simply cuts off any frequency under 500hz with a high filter pass on the right channel.
2)Hi-Low Speakerphone 4-Way HiR:
Cuts off any frequency under 500hz from the right channel with a high filters pass but also redirects and merges it with the left channel.
To test which is your left and right channel, you can use anyone of the myriad left-right channel test videos in YouTube:
Left Right Channel Test
All the impulses are wav files and they are zipped in ImpulsesOxygen.zip, so you simply unzip them and import the wav file of your choosing in the JamesDSP Convolver.
Those impulses can also be used with ROMs of other phones that either come with dual-speaker setup or use a mod to create two channel audio.
Installation Procedure:
You will need to flash the following modules through Magisk (They can all be found in the Downloads section of Magisk Manager):
1) Ainur Sauron
2) Ainur JamesDSP (you can also use viper4a fx, but it has some bug when switching impulses)
3) Audio Modification Library
4) Audio Compatibility Patch
After flashing the requirements:
1) Reboot so all Magisk Modules are installed
2) Copy the impulse of your choosing (wav file) at 'Internal Storage/JamesDSP/Convolver' (I suggest you use the 4-Way HiL wav found in the zip for mi max 2)
3) Open JamesDSP
4) Enable the Master Switch on top of that window to activate JamesDSP
5) Enable the Convolver option near the bottom of that window
6) Select as Impulse your chosen wav file (4-way HiL for example)

Sure, for the user, all that's involved is
1. Have the problem--a phone that's got a big speaker and a little speaker for stereo and a custom ROM that isn't optimized for their difference
2. Test and find out whether the "small" speaker is for the left or right channel--using this video https://youtu.be/hTvJoYnpeRQ for example
3. Install the solution: the OP mentioned 4 programs but you mostly have to just make sure Ainur JamesDSP is working. Then copy the files from ImpulsesOxygen.zip to (InternalStorage)/JamesDSP/Convolver .
4. In JamesDSP, enable Master switch for Speaker and, some way down the menu, enable "Convolver enable" for convolver and choose one of the files from ImpulsesOxygen.zip as "Impulse response". Choose "hiL" or "4way hiL" if (referring back to step 2) your small speaker is for the left channel; choose "hiR" or "4way hiR" if your small speaker is for the right channel. Below screenshots are example config for the Mi Max 2 with small speaker for left channel.

Someone more experienced in that level of modding can chime in here I hope... The OP was working on a modified mixer_paths that should have similar effect but it hasn't worked so far. The lines that were supposed to do the job read like this I believe
<ctl name="RX3 HPF cut off" value="MIN_3DB_850Hz" />
https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/device-flo/blob/master/mixer_paths.xml
The present approach with JamesDSP and convolver files does have more fine-grained control over the sound and the bandpass+phase shifted signal of the bass redirection channel in the 4-way filters should not be doable outside of JamesDSP or V4A.

Sounds interesting, I am not an expert but will try and look into it.
Thank you for your kind explanation. I hope developers will also take a look at it.
Btw, stereo is awesome now! It would be interesting to tweak a bit more as I think earpiece might carry over a bit lower frequencies, thus pushing stereo even further!

AML has been included in Ainur Sauron, I can see AML libs and scripts inside the zip file. This is exactly what I did with my Max2, as I mentioned in MXM review, but I have lack of deep investment as yours, instead I use some other impulses and luckily fixed the problem too. Nice to see this thread since it can help other users. Btw, can you please write a guide to install these mods with SuperSu instead of Magisk? (AML can not install in recovery without Magisk)

I don't know about AML but as far as I can tell the essence of the mod doesn't require you to install Ainur and only requires you to install one of JamesDSP and V4A, hence AML isn't necessary.

Ainur provide better audio quality. So if you only need to fix the distortion, Jame DSP or V4A is enough. But it's worth to install Ainur audio mod too, because the AOSP audio quality is worse. What I mean here is AML has been included in Ainur zip, we just need to install 1 instead 2 files.

Thank you worked very well for me. Even with Dolby atmos same time.

Reading a bit around the official miui forum you will find that the earpiece speaker is meant as a treble speaker playing mid to high frequencies and the bottom loudspeaker as a woofer playing low to mid frequencies or even high ones since it can.
Using an aosp Oreo ROM though loses that optimization and treats the two unequal speakers as equal with the result of having the earpiece rattle heavily when it must play a frequency under 550hz.
Using an equalizer such as the one included in Dolby Atmos Axon 7, to reduce every frequency Lower than 500hz worked to remove the rattle from the earpiece but also removed the bass from the bottom loudspeaker, which isn't the ideal solution.
The final solution was to implement a high filter pass (suggested by UltraM8/Sovetnikov from Ainur), which was elaborated upon and implemented by Joe0Bloggs from ARISE.
Description of included impulses:
If your left channel is the earpiece and the right channel is the bottom speaker, (which is true for mi max 2) you need one of the following impulses:
1) Hi-Low Speakerphone HiL:
Which simply applies a high filter pass of 500hz to the left channel
2) Hi-Low Speakerphone 4-Way HiL:
Which applies a high filter pass of 500hz to the left channel but also redirects those left channel frequencies that are cut-off and merges them with the right channel.
So in the scenario that the left and right channel have a difference you will he able to hear it instead of it being just cut-off
If your right channel is the earpiece and the left channel is the loudspeaker, (which may be true for other phones with a similar issue) you need one of the following impulses:
1)Hi-Low Speakerphone HiR:
Simply cuts off any frequency under 500hz with a high filter pass on the right channel.
2)Hi-Low Speakerphone 4-Way HiR:
Cuts off any frequency under 500hz from the right channel with a high filters pass but also redirects and merges it with the left channel.
To test which is your left and right channel, you can use anyone of the myriad left-right channel test videos in YouTube:
Left Right Channel Test
All the impulses are wav files and they are zipped in ImpulsesOxygen.zip, so you simply unzip them and import the wav file of your choosing in the JamesDSP Convolver.
Those impulses can also be used with ROMs of other phones that either come with dual-speaker setup or use a mod to create two channel audio.
Installation Procedure:
You will need to flash the following modules through Magisk (They can all be found in the Downloads section of Magisk Manager):
1) Ainur Sauron
2) Ainur JamesDSP (you can also use viper4a fx, but it has some bug when switching impulses)
3) Audio Modification Library
4) Audio Compatibility Patch
After flashing the requirements:
1) Reboot so all Magisk Modules are installed
2) Copy the impulse of your choosing (wav file) at 'Internal Storage/JamesDSP/Convolver' (I suggest you use the 4-Way HiL wav found in the zip for mi max 2)
3) Open JamesDSP
4) Enable the Master Switch on top of that window to activate JamesDSP
5) Enable the Convolver option near the bottom of that window
6) Select as Impulse your chosen wav file (4-way HiL for example)

Great, very very good work.Amazing sound now.
Thy for this outstanding workaround.
Would be really great if this could be implemented in lineageos as standard.
Greetz

Thank you so much for your clear explanation. Oreo sounds much better now. Again, thank you so much.

My oxygen audio is better now, dolby atmos & viper uninstalled :laugh:
Thank you ?????

Any update on getting this natively? I'm on a Pie ROM and would like to get this to work either with a kernel driver or custom module. Not really sure where to begin...Haven't built my own kernel or written an actual kernel driver in years but I would love to jump into some android dev with finding a solution to this.

CHANGELOG :
Code:
- V1 initilal release
- v2 fix speaker glitch because wrong audio configuration on v1
- v3 using latest module script template and fix DTS:X Surround code
- v4 enable all weather effect on lockscreen and fix some configuration media_profile
- v5 enable Steady Record @60fps work only FHD 16:9 and 18:9 doesn't work on FHD 21:9 @60fps
enable Cine Shot for rear and front camera, also enable potrait mode on rear camera (forced using ultra wide angle)
- v6 fix Cineshot, Updated LG Equalizer from LG V50, fix build.prop code for weather lockscreen effect and Custom Equalizer
- v7 Reconstruct all Audio Configuration, added newly audioeffect format, added auxpackagelist for lge apps, enable auto framing smartcam, enable shot solution, remove HDR10 Video support, currently doesn't work (temporary removed until i find the fix), remove older prop code.
- v8.0 :
*add missing audio decoder configuration that supported in our phone
*improved audio with Quad DAC off: disable low power mode audio quality uLP/LP and change to HIFI, change echo preference from mono to stereo 48Khz, this will also improve audio output when using bluetooth headphone/speaker that didn't using Quad DAC.
*add missing permissions for audio, bluetooth and camera, also add permissions for spesific LG V30 Variant.
*reconfigure bluetooth stack a2dp offload
*Added Dual Stereo Speaker
- v9.0 :
*Added paid search features pemissions for chrome
*Revert back mixer_path to default, only HIM Quad DAC and Stereo Speaker mod (at least work on H930DS) other variant to be confirmed
This may fix all your problem to install this main module for variant that have bootloop issue except for CineShot and Equalizer that some variant need special permissions, so i seperated the module.
- v9.1 :
*change back default headphone mode to HIFI instead ULP
*configure initial value for dual speaker as i'm forget to change it.
- v9.2 :
*add missing permissions as system is always looking for
*some changes in media profile (always 100% Jpeg quality)
*some changes in mixer path (dual speaker code follow vendor structure)
- v9.3 :
*bug fixes
- VERSION 9.4
*Add variant dual speaker and without dual speaker
*bug fixes
*some change in audio output config
- VERSION 9.5
*Cleanup unused files
*fix flash sometimes doesn't work when taking photo
- VERSION 9.6 :
AUDIO
- Enable 16/24bit offload
- Enable bluetooth a2dp hw offload (can be disable in developer options)
- Enable gapless playback for any music player app that use system properties
- Use High Dyn Sampler rate for any music player app that use system properties
VIDEO Recording
- Increased bitrate video recording from 36Mbps to 52Mbps (high [email protected]) / 1080p @30fps is 36Mbps from 24Mbps (high) ON ALL aspect ratio
- Increased bitrate for 720p too on all aspect ratio
MEDIA
- Re-enable some codec that disabled by LG
- Try to Re-enable miracast WFD (didn't tested)
NO Changes
- 4K UHD @30fps remain the same at 52Mbps
- AVC Profile baseline lvl 4 for auto and AVC Profile High lvl 5 for Manual Video is remain the same
REMOVED
- Potrait Mode for Rear Camera has been removed due to poor quality and i can't found solution to change to the main camera instead of super wideangle without editing the app, is more complicated if we edit the system app because of signature verification in framework
- remove duplicate aac compress offload (unused code).
*STABLE VERSION 10.0
*AUDIO :
- Fix sometimes internal audio recording not working
- Add/fix some missing code in audio_policy_configuration

FAQ
Q : How to install this Module?
A : Install via Magisk Manager.
Q : How to update this Module to newer version?
A : Remove old version from Magisk Manager then reboot. After booting complete install new module via Magisk Manager.
Q : Is this module compatible on CUSTOM ROM based LOS/AOSP?
A : No. Only for Official Based Stock Android Pie/9.0
Q : Is this module compatible with Official Android Oreo firmware?
A : No. Only for Official Based Stock Android Pie/9.0
Q : Why DTS:X don't work i'm using PowerAMP?
A : You need to disable DVC in PowerAMP to make DTS:X working or use other player music. Just like other phone outside LG, if DVC enable Dolby or vendor sound enhancement don't work.
Q : Why 384Khz is not working no sound in PowerAMP or UAAP?
A : 384Khz only working if you turn off Hi-Fi Quad DAC. Hi-fi Quad DAC can properly handle up to 352KHZ to make sure everything work like sound preset and dither
Q : I don't want to to boost Hi-Fi Quad DAC under 50 ohms headset/headphone, how can i do that?
A : Extract mixer_paths_tavil.xml from the module zip then find and edit the following line (look at the BLUE value, this value is from stock).
You need to change that value same as this code below!
HIM mode remain unchanged since the two following mode (NORMAL & AUX) i set to 0 value to make same as HIM mode in the module, so you need to change it back to stock value that has BLUE value
<!-- This is Normal mode for headset under 50 ohms -->

After editing you can put it back to the zip file and re-install module with a new one!

Nice. Thanks for this

It seems build.prop code in system.prop didn't readed by system, so dts:x don't work, i use my phone to create this mod.
I will try to fix my module. Thanks

Sorry too late update, new version 3 uploaded, please redownload module and remove old version!
If you already add DTS:X code into build.prop you can remove them by using root explorer with text editor.
Please note that this module include LG equalizer if you already install LG equalizer before installing this module please remove that!

Wow...this seems interesting... Trying out right away...

Wow. This is a new level of forcing HIM (see the screensho !). Thank you a lot !
I played a bit with magisk modules recently, and I noticed that the module.prop file was working on previous 19.4.xxxxx canary version. It's weird you're forced to use a separate script with resetprop...
I'm just completely confused about the huge hissing noise I have when listening to music... I modified the gains in the ESS DAC section of mixer_path_tavil.xml (0->18 or 20) but still : how do Poweramp HiFi mode (24bits but just 48kHz for me) achieves perfect sound with gain set to 0 ? Is there another file/value that I can edit for my own setup ?

Awesome. Just one (probably noob question) :
This doesn't play well with Narsil, right?

Ya i use resetprop to make sure it's working, because on my phone it's not working with system.prop magisk 19.4
What's your headphone/headset? Because on my phone using IEM TFZ King Pro and Sony WH-1000XM3 (using AUX Cable) don't have any hissing, also i use PowerAMP latest beta, it's working fine 24bit/192KHZ,
PowerAMP in LG V30 Android Pie it's ONLY supported DVC with output 24bit 44.1, 48, 96, 192KHZ, if you choose other sampling rate DVC don't work.
Unfurtunately forced HIM is to set value to 0

What is Narsil? this module didn't override any audio effect only audio configuration and mixer, if you are talking about other sound mod, this module probably working with them

Well, difficult questions : I don't have high quality headsets or headphones... I use a HyperX Cloud I, a Beyerdynamics Custom Street, a Sony 250AP-ish headset. The situation is always the same : hissing without high quality option...

Yeah this works perfectly : no noise with high quality output (with DVC, and I put 48kHz because I can't hear any difference with more sampling rate). But I would like to use OpenSL output option (or other apps...) without noise and with DTS / JamesDSP... I don't understand what PowerAmp is doing to suppress the noise ! Can we do the same thing with a (your) mod ?

Hmmmm I changed the value, and still it was forced.
[EDIT]
Maybe my faulty jack plug (I stop hearing from the right when I push in a certain way) can generate the noise issue... I just realized that ! It's a bit stupid, sorry. I guess we'll see after I managed to send back for warranty repair.

Yeah, Narsil (like Ainur Sauron) messes with mixer. So they're probably not compatible with your mod. But hey, this one is specifically for v30, so it might be better. Gonna try it as soon as i get home. ?

Bro can you tell which file i should remove from the module to remove the performance improvement
Since its already hot in my country and overclocking will make it heat up and consume more battery

It's not overclocking. Lg handcoded it so bigger core frequency will get stuck on 2361. He just removed that. So there's nothing you can remove, rathee you've to add.

[MODULE][AUDIO] Jackshi Audio (improve the volume levels n moar)

Yo there.
Brief summary
My previous device was a Mi A1 which packed some punch on its audio jack output. It could go LOUUUUD. Obviously I found X3's sound very lacking in that regard but very good in other audio aspects. Upon inspecting MIUI's mixer_paths, I found out that qualcomm's codec ULP mode (ultra low power) is used by default when you plug in some headphones. AFAIK this mode disables the codec's dedicated headphone amplifier (or something close to it, didn't really investigate further after getting the results I wanted lol). But no. We don't want this.
Sooo?
This module will increase/boost your jack**** 3.5mm volume levels. It does this by enabling the HIFI mode provided by the SoC's codec and disabling its compander module. It also tunes both the analog and digital values to more optimal levels.
Why not just increase RX_blablablabla?
Becaaause, with that method you increase digital gain only, which introduces distortion and similar artifacts. We don't want that. Before increasing the digital gain as high as possible, we need to do it with the analog gain first. The module does this for you, using values based off my testing.
If you want to go louder still, edit the mixer_paths_wcd9375 file present inside the module zip and increase the RX Digital Volume values of the headphones-ce section. If you're using AML do the same on the .aml.sh file (it is 83 by default).
What about HPHR/L?
It is already maxed out by default (20) and doesn't work unless you disable qualcomms compander. This module disables the compander and actually reduces it to 19 just to be on the safe side. If you want to go higher still follow the same steps presented above.
Why LOHIFI and not HIFI?
From my testing, there's no difference between those two and I'll always favor the mode which is more battery friendly.
Compatibility
Should work with any audio mod out there as long as you use AML.
Can also be used standalone.
It has only been tested on the lastest Xiaomi.EU build but should work in any MIUI based ROMs and most likely AOSP ROMs too (didn't test yet but it SHOULD work).
If you want to be 100% sure it works on your ROM (AOSP or not) install AML and Ainur NARSIL. I'll also leave my narsil_useroptions if you're interested.

Interesting, but isn't Ainur Narsil module doing the same thing? Like removing compander for example?
Also, doesn't Ainur edit mixer_paths too for higher volume?

@SkaboXD Ainur doesn't adjust the volumes but yeah, you can use it to disable the headphones compander module as well (although I'm not sure if that actually works). AFAIK.

theres 2 zip which one should i flash? im on eu, no other audio mod installed.
nvm. im just stupid

its magisk module ?

thanks bro

at least mention AML as Audio Modification Library (magisk module) once I totally had to think hard what it was. Also you made it sound with Ainur Narsil you can test it, not that it should 100% work with it and AML.
also looking at your narsil_useroptions, the value for impendance is wrong? it should be 48000 instead of just 48 for 48ohm
thanks tho, much appreciated.
