Audio Settings

[jstrick5]

Try this one.. I believe it's a 2.2.1 version, so probably different than the one they've reported as working.. but should hopefully work (?).

It's a patch, so install via recovery (no wipe).

Sorry, I know this is a noob question but i'm a little confused and new at installing/updating ROMS in general... I'm in clockworkMod Recovery do I choose "install zip from sdcard"? Not, "apply sdcard:update.zip. Am I on the right track or going at this completely wrong? Thanks.

Since you stated that you're a bit new to it.. going to give a bit more detail than you may be looking for... but I'd rather mention something and have you not need it, than to leave it out.

Some ROMs have different install instructions than others. You DEF. want to make sure that you're following the install instructions for the ROM that you're installing! (I believe drod left the install instructions out from the 1.8.9 and 1.9.0 versions of Focused, so best place to look is the first post of the 1.8.6 thread, assuming that you're installing Focused, if not, look for instructions for your particular ROM.

If/when the instructions say to wipe data/cache, they will mean going into mounts/storage, and format cache, and format data. From the main menu will work as well to wipe cache and data, also resetting a couple of other things (won't hurt).. either is fine.

For installing the .ip, an update.zip is the way that packages/patches come from Moto/VZW usually, so there is an option for it in the menu.. however for ROMs, you can simply install .zip from SDCard, then choose .zip from SDCard, and select the .zip.

That should get you started.. Only other suggestion.. is that this thread is for an audio settings patch specifically for the Focused ROM. If you have specific questions regarding a ROM, make sure you post it in the ROMs thread, you'll get better/faster answers that way!

GL! and hope this helps!

Edit: after re-reading.. possible you were just asking how to install the patch... and are already on Focused.. sorry if I got confused.. lol

Uhmm, for patches, pretty much all of them are just going to be install .zip from SDCard, with no wiping at all...

HTH!!

Thanks man you rock. Always great when someone is nice enough to go out of their way and provide MORE info and finer detail than originally requested

You're edit is correct - I've got focused running (love it) just never installed a patch before. Your patch and "install .zip from SDCard" is what I was looking for. Thanks again.

Confrimed to be working fine on 1.9.0.
Framework is COMPLETELY different on 1.9.5 (being AOSP settings)... and I believe that even when loading it, it does not work on 1.9.5....

Might as well post here.

I noticed that when changing from 1.9 to 1.95 the enhanced audio for bluetooth is now gone. Any way to get this back?

Ya 1.9.5 was based off gumjar which was AOSP, which was basically a complete gutting of the rom, which in effect handicapped certain portions of it by replacing or removing parts that were actually better than what they were replaced with... hopefully a script can be written to replace those inferior apks & replace the severed appendages... ;-)

curious.. what would those be? and gummy isn't aosp. obsidian is aosp, and so is ultimate droid, along with epic unleashed

My bad... aosp-like* anyway, I was referring to dialer, camera, gallery with hdmi support & image editing tools & audio effect settings & dlna. All the other blur can be left in the trash.

I was hoping you could (re)implement those features somehow... Posted about it in another thread, as well.

Those features will be in blurry. Camera is only "superior" cause it has panoramic, widescreen options. Gallery isn't what controls the hdmi support. DLNA is compatible, but I haven't had time to integrate it. Dialer has the neat feature that shows names as you type the number, but that's about it. That might be integrate-able with the correct coding.

Dialer, gallery, audio effects, etc. are incompatible. The only two that are compatible are DLNA and the camera. DLNA and HDMI I see as more functionality than blur. HDMI is a PITA to bring back, but I'm working on it, even though its low on the list. DLNA has to be tested. IF it were possible for me to add dialer back without HEAVILY re-writing the framework, I'd have to include blur contacts as well. The point of "Focused" is more for a clear, free rom. Blurry will have all of the features you listed, as will Fuzzy (Low blur, only camera, gallery, dialer, contacts) once that comes to be.

DSP Settings and/or a way to adjust audio effects will be implemented once I have more than 5 minutes to sit down and work on it, but not likely till 2.0

Thank you for the more in depth explanation, I appreciate it (most devs seem to have kinda sidestepped the issue).

Ya the dialer also had the ability to end a call from the notification bar, use that alot in speaker mode). As far as the gallery, I was referring to hdmi out slide show, as well as the link to the arc photo & video editing (separate apks).

Thank you for the continued support, I'm sure many would love a hybrid edition. & I would love to help theme...

 

[unboostedzc]

just caught the explanation on the audio and hdmi issues, thanks for the clarification drod

is there any way possible to simply raise the audio "range" or baseline? i just want louder volume, specifically in-call but an overall up in the audio range would do the trick as well. poweramp does a great job of boosting music, pandora/slacker are fine for radio, but i still cannot hear anyone on the phone while driving or in a loud environment. ive tried different headphones, bluetooth headsets, everything; its just simply too low.
