Issue 9308 - android - eaac+ and aac+ decoding sound quality problems (Android 2.2) - Project Hosting on Google Code

HTC EVO Froyo users

Google has changed from OpenCore to Stagefright as their codec system in Froyo 2.2. This introduced yet another AAC bug. Please star this bug so we can get the attention it needs for google to fix!

This issue applies to all Froyo phones.

Huh, I thought my Pandora sounded weird yesterday.

The bigger problem I am having with Pandora is that it pauses when navigation gives directions.

Yeah, Pandora sounds TERRIBLE now!!

Nevermind. Thought this was posted but it was on another forum.

I had to turn the volume all the way up to hear music with pandora. It wasn't like that with 2.1

if you're rooted, you can do this fix...

A hard reset after updating fixed my Slacker problem... Does Pandora have a 2.2 version out on the market yet? Sounds more like Pandora needs a fix than Froyo...

 

[I want my EVO]

I do not have this issue in Slacker.

However, I updated to Froyo using the leaked copy last week (.3) and did a hard reset right after to start fresh so im not sure if those 2 things fixed it prior to knowing about this or not.

But at the moment i have no issues.

Ill wait until HTC has me upgrade to .6 and ill try again.

turned on pandora this morning and it sounds terrible.

I used Pandora all day today and I didn't notice any difference at all. Updated to Froyo Monday night.

I think this is really a good example of why I find the phone fun, fascinating and frustrating all at the same time.....there does not seem to be consistency with several issues. LOVE the phone. But why do I have sporadic battery life cycles while other friends have no problems (all un-rooted), why do some have Pandora issues and not others? hmmmmm

 

[tracerit]

it's not noticeable playing from the speakers, but when i connect my phone in the car it sounds of low quality... evne with the settings set to high on pandora.

 

[ChadInOKC]

I'm having the same problem. Horrible sound quality after 2.2. I turned the quality to high and it still sounds bad.

Anyway for is non rooted people to.fix this. I have tried to save the file but with no avail. If there is a way around this help please. Lol.

I've also had problems with Pandora on 2.2, the songs sometimes end early, then go to the next song when I don't touch it. I also have noticd the quality is bad sometimes, tinny, or more like mono and not stereo. If anyone knows a sure way to fix that on a non-rooted phone, let me know.
