Android :: Phone With Good Sound Quality?

Oct 22, 2010

My girlfriend is looking for a new phone - and she likes the android platform (I have a Nexus One).

However, she is not impressed with the sound quality (both in terms of what you hear and what the other person can hear). Plus, the speaker phone on the Nexus One is nigh on useless.

I don't have any experience of the Desire HD, or others - can anyone recommend any that they know has good sound?

HTC EVO 4G :: Watching Movies With Good Quality Video And Sound?

Jun 25, 2010

I'm going on a trip soon and wanted to put some movies on my phone. I found some DVD ripping software, ripped The Dark Knight as MPEG4, and was thrilled when I saw the picture- it looked fantastic. Then I put my headphones in. Where's my sound?

Before this, I had the movie The Book of Eli on my computer, MPEG4. I put that on my phone- sound, but not video. Converted to H.263, got both, but video was terrible quality. Near unwatchable. Should I try converting to a different format? I mean, there has to be some way to get good quality video.

Motorola Droid :: Good Voice Quality With Phone?

Jan 20, 2010

Does anyone actually have decent voice quality on their Motorola Droid? I am on my fourth DROID and so far every call I have made people have complained that I sound muffled. I know there are a slew of threads on this, especially on Motorola's forums, but no one has an answer. Some people say they do have good voice quality. I am wondering who does and if they can post recordings of their voice quality. The Droid is an excellent device, however it should always first be a phone. It absolutely sux in that department, and I am seriously considering exchanging for an old fashioned flip within my 30 days from verizon. My RAZR and RAZR2 were far superior.

HTC Droid Eris :: Want A Better Sound Quality On Phone

Jan 21, 2010

So my wife just tells me (5 days after the last day I have to return my phone) that lately the sound quality when I call her is terrible. She has trouble hearing me and mainly hears a bunch of background noise while my voice is kind of faint. My signal strength doesn't seem to make much of a difference. On my end calls sound great. Just trying to see if anyone else has had any complaints. She claims it was better before. Not sure what's going on but I'd hate to think this phone sounds terrible to the people I am calling.

General :: Sound Quality - Same Phone / Different Roms

May 29, 2012

How and why sound can differ so much between different Roms on the same phone. I primarily use my phone to push music through my head unit in my car. I compare the different rom's sound quality by putting my phone on full volume level and controlling music with my car's volume knob.

I'm on an Evo 3D so,

2.17 based roms sound the best for some reason with the ICS leaks coming in at a near 2nd. All AOSP roms sound like trash for some reason. MeanROM and FreEVO roms with Beats Audio enabled sound the best, but I've had a few 2.17 roms that didn't sound too good.

Right now I'm on Newt's One S and I'm really digging the rom except for the sound. An example being... On MeanROM and FreEVO, volume level 35 is a nice listening level, 40 is loud and at 45 my speakers start to distort. Now on Newt's One S (and AOSP roms), 35 is way low, 40 is low, 45 it starts to distort but is still low compared to 35 on MeanROM even though beats audio is supposedly enabled.

I guess I'd like to know where the difference lies whether it be with the rom or kernel and is there anything I can flash or tweak to get the same sound quality from all roms that I put to my phone.

HTC EVO 4G :: Looking For A GOOD Quality Mp3 Player

Jul 1, 2010

I don't expect a cell-phone to outperform dedicated devices (camera, camcorder, etc.), but I figured that my mp3 player was one thing that this phone might be able to replace.Thus far, that hasn't been the case. Pandora and Slacker are "okay" with sound quality, but I understand the limitations, so that doesn't bother me.What does bother me is the underwhelming sound quality when playing mp3's via the aux input on my car or through headphones. My first generation Zune has far better audio quality and I can't bring myself to put it away just yet. All of my mp3 files are at a minimum of 192kbps, with most of them being 256kbps or higher. Are there any audio players that offer better sound quality and at least SOME level of adjustment of the equalizer? Presets (Rock, Acoustic, Jazz, etc.) are just fine as I'm not trying to tweek until I'm blue in the face. If nothing just yet, I expect an update to offer some sort of remedy. The last firmware update for the Zune did a great job improving what was already very good sound quality.

Android : Recommend Bluetooth Headset With Good Quality Volume?

Dec 17, 2009

I call internationally on calling cards A LOT (gv to those countries is 2x more expensive). Because of the calling card, sound quality and volume already takes a hit. Translation from a non-native language is more difficult over the phone, and damned near impossible for me if I can't hear them CLEARLY and LOUDLY. Same goes for the party at the other end if my microphone is sub-par.

Can anyone recommend a Bluetooth headset that works well with the droid and has AMAZING call clarity, quality, and good volume? Aesthetics are unimportant, I don't care what it looks like or how big it is. It just need to sound loud, clear, and have a good mic. It also needs to be comfortable because it will get used 1-2 hours EVERY day.

Bonus points if its stereo and supports A2DP audio, as getting one of those for music listening is also on the shopping list... but I'm perfectly willing to get two separate units if I need to.

HTC Incredible :: Google Voice Quality Not So Good

Jun 11, 2010

Has anyone else noticed that calls placed using Google Voice don't sound as good as a regular cell call? I hung up from a friend and called right back using Google Voice, and it was more difficult to understand. I was using my bluetooth speakerphone, and their voice kept fading in and out. So I hung up again and called back via the handset, and experienced the same problem. I did this last week and also had this problem, but thought it may just be a temporary glitch. Apparently I also sounded fuzzy to them. Shouldn't be too much different from a normal call should it? It's just basically calling a Google number, and then Google is calling to the actual number you want to call.

Android :: Slacker Radio Sound Quality

Dec 15, 2009

I just downloaded Slacker 1.0.375 (I think) and have found a huge sound quality issue...

I'm currently using Shure SE310 earbuds on multiple devices and have noticed no issues with their quality... I also use Pandora (on my droid) with no quality issues... So I know it is neither the earbuds or the 3.5mm headphone jack on my droid...

What I notice with Slacker is that the bass, probably 50%-75% of the time, comes through with a lot of distortion / crackling... It is apparent at all volume levels that the music is actually audible and varies across all music genres...

HTC EVO 4G :: Best MP3 Sound Quality

Jun 14, 2010

Is there a program that runs on the EVO that produces the best sound quality while listening to MP3s? I have some Shure headphones that I use with my itouch and they sound great. The EVO sounds just "OK". Anyone have a player that they use that works better than others? Maybe one with an EQ?

I am using (3) cubed as my player and like the features, but just wish the sound was a little better.

HTC EVO 4G :: Sound Quality

Apr 21, 2010

Does anybody have any clue of what we can expect from this phone in terms of sound quality? I'm an iPhone 3G user (), and I'm very pleased with the audio quality on the device. I'm something of an audiophile, and will be using these babies with my Evo, when I get it.

So, not having owned an android device before, how does the audio hardware generally stack up? I'm quite exacting, but anything close to the 3G should be good enough for me.

Android :: Bad Sound Quality When Recording / Playing Audio Files

Oct 16, 2010

Hey, I have a problem with android programing when I try to record and then play the file that was just recored. I can both record and play the sound but the quality stinks. Its not just bad is really hard to listen to and sound abit like its a computer generated voice. I use the andriod SDK-emulator. The code that sets up the recording looks like this;

MediaRecorder recorder = new MediaRecorder();
recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.RAW_AMR);
recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
recorder.setOutputFile(path);
recorder.prepare();
recorder.start();

And the code playing the file later looks like this;
MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer(); mp.reset();
mp.setDataSource(path); mp.prepare(); mp.start();
I don't know what part that makes the audio file sound really bad or if its just the emulator that makes it bad and that it would work on a real phone.

HTC EVO 4G :: Video Sound Quality

HTC Hero :: Sound Quality

Oct 7, 2009

I joined the forum a week or so ago, just before I got my new HTC Hero on Thursday and it's taken me until now to drag myself away from it to visit the forum again.

As much as I'm addicted to the phone, I was a bit disappointed the sound quality wasn't great- comes out a bit 'tinny'. I got myself some Sennheiser CX 500 earphones and it seems now the sound it much much better.

I just wondered what other people's experiences were with the music/sound quality on the Hero...

Also, if it's not too much to ask further, what music player do you use? I've got Rockon and the default player and kinda like them both but neither are perfect...

HTC Incredible :: Sound Quality From 3.5mm Jack

May 11, 2010

I use some higher end balance armature earphones and also some regular traditional earphones.

Anyone else notice the sounds quality ... isn't exactly that great?

I hope its just me but the frequency range seem incomplete. The highs are missing and the low end is clipped out pretty early. The midrange is decent though.

HTC EVO 4G :: Crackled Sound Quality Of Music / 3.5mm Jack

Jun 9, 2010

So yea I'm a hardcore audiophile and any crackle/pop in my music really annoying. I have had the EVO since Friday, and everything I try (Slacker, Pandora, last.FM, whatever) cracks/pops when the audio is going through the 3.5MM jack to my car. I'm already on a wait list for replacement because I think it's faulty hardware. I've tried multiple cables and even HQ settings.

Coming from a Touch Pro 2 which had amazing sound quality through the 3.5mm jack, needless to say I'm less than happy with the EVO since I primarily stayed with Sprint for uncapped data. If I get a replacement and it still continued, looks like I may be wandering over to that new iPhony. I urge everyone with this issue to post here so they can resolve it or figure out whats going on.

HTC Desire :: Sound Quality - Volume Level

Apr 21, 2010

Just wanted to make sure if this is a common issue or something wrong with my handset (so that I can try getting it replaced).

When I hear calls using phone's default speaker, the sound comes okay till one volume level. If I move up, the sound distorts.

If I use speaker-phone, things are worse. After a certain level, sound crackles a lot.

For music via phone's loud speaker, the sound doesn't crackle. But as identified by many, I can hear music with no bass & lots of treble.

Is this normal for Desire?

Comparing it with my wife's N95 (which has stereo speakers) was a nightmare for me.
