In my opinion, the audio via the 3.5mm jack in this device is terrible.
I've seen Dolby working in a lot of other devices without root/flashing. Is the same possible for this device?
Thanks in advance
P.S I've already tried all modded Dolby apks, be it for Razr phone/moto g8. None of them have worked so far (the app keeps crashing when launched). I've tried it with the native "Audio Effects" app enabled and disabled. No luck. Any idea why? ?
Flash a dolby for pure Android and the same version of Android that you have, there it will work for you, greetings

Hi, i have it installed with the dolby atmos addon. I never used any profiles, i just adjusted the settings myself. I gotta say its the best out there!
I use this mainly for my car audio through bluetooth and USB (Android Auto). Turns my 6 speaker car into a true 360 surround sound system. Its so realistic and worth a try.
Search through XDA which contains guides to install.
***NOTE: Only problem i have at the moment is android auto (when plugged via usb into the cars usb port) seems to disable a.r.i.s.e completely. After checking the driver status, it shows as enabled but processing is disabled, so its not producing the setup i have. Im trying to search the web for a solution.***
Running on Oneplus 3 Cyanogenmod 14.1 lastest release with Google assistant mod
Have fun!
UPDATE: MISSING/INCOMPATIBLE LIBRARIES DEEM THE APK MENTIONED BELOW USELESS (AS OF 02/16/2018). ALL FILES WERE PULLED FROM THE FASTBOOT IMAGES HERE (LABELLED AS FULL DUMPS BACK TO STOCK). APKS FROM 8.0B3 AND 8.1B1 AND THEIR LIBRARIES FROM /VENDOR/LIB/SOUNDFX ARE ATTACHED IF ANYONE WANTS TO PICK THIS UP.
Seems like it was removed in 8.1. This is the apk that was pulled from the 8.0B3. Untested and for mata only for the time being.
8.0B3 MusicFX.apk hashes:
MD5: 5C070B09BA76A1595E3C95D500E26BA3
SHA-256: DC39794D01BD8D454053D2522B8CD826EC9FF4FBDBBAF2AA0B961C876C7B68B6
I have it installed how do i test it.?
Would be interesting to know if Essential pulled it to make some changes to it, then repack when public build or another beta is released.

Get a music player of your choice that has access to an EQ and you should see snapdragon audio EQ. Some 3rd party music players may have a setting in them, named such as "use system EQ" that is the one you need.
I just tested it as a normal install. It works, but not 100%. Audio quality is noticeably different than the generic EQ. But when you try to adjust bass boost or surround sound, it tells you to plug headphones in. I'm guessing it needs to be updated to be fully functional.

I'm pretty sure that everyone is totally missing the boat on this Snapdragon Audio+.
The key feature of Snapdragon Audio is a pseudo-high-quality DAC to improve audio quality. Essential phones do not use this hardware. Our phones have no analog audio output. Even the bundled 3.5mm adapter includes its own DAC.
Thus, Snapdragon Audio+ acts only as an EQ with some DSP effects. You can get the same result with a myriad of apps on the Play Store.

Doesn't work because of some incompatible/missing libraries unfortunately.

Could be some restriction they ran into when switching from pass-through HALs to binderized HALs. The apk from beta 3 depends on external libraries from API 23 whereas the newer apk from 8.1 depends on libraries from API 27 exclusively, so they seem to be in the process of moving forward, and hopefully we'll see it in their future builds.
I don't have the time or resources to make this work, so I am abandoning this. I'll post the 8.1 apk and libraries from both 8.0 and 8.1 if anyone wants to work on it in the meanwhile.
How do you install the libraries

If we knew what files they were, they'd be packaged in a zip and this would work. But we don't know what libraries are needed.
Did they remove the "fx boost" mode?
I had it on my mi5 oreo developer rom but now i upgraded to stable oreo rom and it's removed from audio profiles.
Snapdragon Audio+ replaced by MusicFX OP 6T Oxygen OS Beta 30 w/ Android 10
I tried installing the Snapdragon Audio+ apk on android 10 update but it didn't install probably because MusicFX prevents it from being installed.

I haven't used the stock EQ on the Essential for quite some time, but it should already be there. When you launch an EQ menu from another app (such as Google Play Music, YouTube Music, etc.), it should launch the built-in EQ app in Android. Essential has used Snapdragon Audio+ since the beginning. However, when Android 8 released during the betas, Snapdragon Audio+ wasn't there. That's why this was created and it never worked anyway. Essential eventually put Snapdragon Audio+ back into Android 8 and it's been there with Android 9 too. It should be there in Android 10 as well, but I've been using Viper4Android instead. Previously, I was using JamesDSP, but it doesn't work with Android 10. And frankly, Snapdragon Audio+ doesn't sound all that great compared to either Viper4Android or JamesDSP anyway.
hi all, i have found some ported dolby atmos from this thread
after i extracted the app and it worked like a charm, i am using nokia 6 ta-1021 and android 8.1
install it like normal app
Thank you, it works perfectly on my TA-1021 with latest 8.1 android )
Does it fix the Oreo sound problem?
What is this ? an music player ? if it is i will give a try soon.
Its worse then before....
My stock dolby are working better then this app
This is a system-wide equalizer. I didn't notice any deterioration of soundquality. I think, it has nothing to do with the preinstalled Atmos surround engine. I must admin that I don't use the preinstalled Dolby app and I'm listening with earbuds to music - for this purpose I'm glad to have this equalizer
At LAST!!!
The thing what I've really missed is the customisable equalizer. I used to listen music on my Lumia 625 that was offerred with WH 530 headphone ( Coloud Boom ). That was the point when I decided to use only Nokia phone in the future. I loved that because it has amazing sound quality with affordable price. After I bought a Nokia 6, I had previously decided to get a same headphone. Generally, for the best performance devices shall be customisable because different headphones has different characteristics.
Now it's aviable and I so happy with it!
Thank you so much!

like you said maybe it worse than stock with some nokia touch inside the preset
but some people missed some settings that we couldnt see in our stock dolby atmos app
if you talk about quality, i only used dolby when on phone speaker only and turn it off when on handsfree or bluetooth just let our plug in devices take the rest if want some quality :good:

now its discontinued with the new coloud number 16
missed pop, knock, boom and bang
it works but the sound on speaker is so much compressed after you put the volume at more than 50% it's all distorted
I can't compare the sound to 7.x because I got the phone and updated to 8.1 first
this is both with stock Dolby and this app

is on nokia 6.1 have default dolby ? If no you cannot install on your phone, in nokia 6 2017 has internal dolby and this apk add some view of dolby atmos than in installed phone dolby apps. there some apps but if you want feel better effect some apps need root like viper, am3d port and dolby atmos itself. But i suggest you using music player that include equalizer like poweramp etc.
Works for me!
Thanks man, awaited many months for this
Doesn't work on xiaomi mix 2s.

Please release Dolby Atmos app for Android Pie version for my Nokia 6 TA 1021
Dear Developer,
Please release Dolby Atmos app for Android Pie version for my Nokia 6 TA 1021.
Right now I can't feel the taste of music which I was having earlier with Dolby Atmos.
So simple if you have magisk, I would never of thought that Oreo 8.0 aptx library install would even work considering that the 8.1/9.0 magisk aptx module as a completely different install, but yeah, the Android 0 aptx magisk modules works. I didn't even realize I turned off my headphone processor till I checked, better inmho. If you use it you can't complain to anyone if doesn't work for you,as pie is unsupported. Just thought I'd share. The module is towards the end of magisk download list, the actual module that's been made for pie doesn't work as it stops loudspeaker playback, the 8.0 module just works, ldac, aptxhd and aptx.
So, if you install Magisk on Andoid 9 Pie you will get ALL the Bluetooth codecs to work or what ??
or which custom ROM does fully support Wideband codecs under Skype Audio calls ?
I would like my BT Stereo Headphone with APT-X to work with Skype with Wideband codec and also use my BT Headset for
Audio recordings with at least 44 or 48 Khz sampling frequency and not just the 8 Khz Mono SBC Codec that is really crappy....
Many thanks.
Regards. Stefan.
Root your android 9 stock ROM, install magisk, and use the aptx module, if your headphones use aptx then it will work .better still , use this with thanks to the ppl who made previous mods.

Will this then also work for instance with Skype to have a Wideband audio codec when using skype audio calls ?
What is the best and easiest method to root the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ?
Any tutorial... Sorry have not looked around here for this.Many thanks for your help.
Regards, Stefan.
I'd imagine it would, it's using aptx then it should still use aptx noattwr what app your using, still trying to figure out how to enable AAC also because that codec is missing aswell
There's plenty of tutorials, look for the one that says something about still use otas. Is the a2dp hardware offload toggle greyed out for everyone in developer settings?, or is just for ppl who have unlocked bootloader?, ive just noticed it and thinking thats why AAC codec isnt working.

Hi folks. I'm using my PX5 with Hal9k's rom since a few months now and I'm really satisfied with the sound quality when using viper4android.
The only thing that bothers me is that viper4android only works with my music player neither with BT Audio or Apps like Google Maps.
In the viper4android thread they wrote you should use compatibility mode in viper settings but I don't have this option. I'm on 2.5.0.6. Has anyone a solution for this problem. Thanks in advance.
