you'll have to get one from the play store

Which variant do you have? Mine is in the settings menu. I really don't like it because it decreases the max volume when I have my Bluetooth ear buds.

Try Music Volume EQ by K & K works great

Do you have a equalizer in setting menu in Google play music app?

I'm using a third party EQ and it works with Google play music.

Same problem here, but others with different carriers have an EQ? Seems like a glaring issue with this phone's DAC built in to not be able to tune music to personal preference.

settings > audio >advanced = uncheck first option, check MusicFX
in the player, between balance and stero x/volume, enable the MusicFX button, then long press that button.
viper pops up,configure,enjoy...:good:

I use PowerAMP for my music. In the equalizer/tone settings, there is a MusicFX button - press-n-hold will open the phones 'global' built-in audio effects.
I'd image you could also use something like Nova Launcher with adding an action/app shortcut from the widget drawer and selecting the AudioFX app/settings.

DOLBY ATMOS - what is use of this app and how to turn it ON while listening to music?

I use PowerAmp to play all my music. I found Dolby Atmos app on my Axon 7. But I could not turn it ON while my Poweramp player is playing. Also what is use of Dolby Atmos and how it works ?
Atmos is just a software eq. You can just stick with PowerAmp eq if you want. If you have FLAC music and want to use the hi-fi DAC, you will have to use the ZTE music app. The DAC doesn't work outside of the app from what I can tell.

I'm pretty sure you can if you enable MusicFX in the Advanced Tweaks

That's software equalizer. Hi-fi DAC is hardware component.

Checking MusicFX means it will use the phone's built-in EQ which is the Dolby Atmos one which should use the Hi-Fi DAC.
EDIT: Ok I guess I was wrong, but it is possible to use the Hi-Fi DAC with Poweramp 3.0 Alpha! See HERE

Poweramp Alpha does work with Dolby Atmos. You just need to put Poweramp in Hi Res Audio Output through the settings.

Nope, just have the installed version from the Play Store. I'll get the alpha, thanks for the response.
Am I the only one that can't get the tracks to be listed in listed order in the stock music app? No matter what I do or which section I choose to view the tracks, they're always listed alphabetically.
Got burned by Lenovo's A10-70 tablet that also have implemented Dolby ATMOS. That tablet sound will get screwed up every time I loaded Poweramp normal Play Store version. Even disable Direct Volume Control in Poweramp does not help. Please tell me if both normal and alpha version of Poweramp works fine with this phone since I am very much interested. I am also not familiar with ZTE software update policy. Not sure if it will get updated as often and as long like Google Nexus phones.

Shuttle (and Shuttle+) work well with Dolby Atoms, just disable the built in EQ.
DON'T use "n7 Player" - Before their update, it messed up Dolby and I had to reset my phone twice (a 3rd time was my fault). After their latest update, it renders Dolby Atoms useless and when you try to enable it, it restarts the phone (had to reset my phone twice). Thanks to n7 (my favorite player) not playing well with Dolby Atmos, I've had to reset my phone a total of 5 times since getting it 3 weeks ago.

Headset HiFi and Dolby Atmos works with my music player of choice as well: Clean Music. Probably because it's just a simple GUI (entire player is less than 1MB) and leaves all the processing to the system.
Okay apart from Poweramp and builtin music player - what are other good options to make use of best available audio on board with Axon 7 ?

Well Spotify seems to work well for me. It probably doesn't use the Hi-Fi chip but with Dolby enabled the sound is very nice.
Call me stupid or lazy but the volume is tiny compared to my old LG G2. I have to turn it all the way up to 70%. Is this the case for you guys?
Hello
I tried to use poweramp, but this isn´t dolby Atmos enabled, but, I ´m using Jetaudio plus... and this works PERFECT, remember that this sound app was designed for use in high -end mp3 players ( like cowon), and i can say with full confidence that works great with dolby atmos, boosting very well the music in the speakersphone, in the bluetooth car stereo and headphones ( wired and wireless)... this app bringing bass optimization ( in the original speakersphone the bass is very poor), let me know your experience, i´ll try to help
Please don't recommend warez. Against XDA rules. Getting paid apps for free is warez.

i love when someone expresses gratitude with an aid. The post was edited, It was with pleasure!
Someone on the Zte forums said you need to disable direct volume control and BT direct volume control in the settings. In order to get power amp to work with Dolby.
And I can confirm that I am able to use the hifi setting and Dolby with Tidal. Which actually makes the music sound better to me than my dp-x1 onkyo player, which makes me mad cause that thing cost me 800$ lol

Equalizers don't work and Audio Effects only works in Google Play

As the title says, I have downloaded several equalizers and none of them will work in any audio app I have tried (google play, slacker radio, etc.). When I tried to use the built-in audio effects app, it only works on Google Play and not Slacker Radio.
Are there any solutions to this issue? Does a custom ROM fix these issues?
Thanks.
Yes it is the issue. I have poweramp and it has its own equalizer which works only in poweramp. And if I change the effects in default equalizer, it won't affect poweramp settings.

Is this a device issue, ROM issue, an app issue or a Marshmallow issue?
No idea. Probably device issue.
I think BlackPlayer might have an option of letting you pick the EQ, at least when I used it consistently it asked if I wanted to use the system or app's EQ.

Will this allow the use of an equalizer within other audio apps like Slacker, Amazon Music, Pandora, etc.? If the EQ only works within that app it doesnt solve the problem. Thanks.

Improve Audio?

The one thing that I really dislike on the LG G6 (LG-LS993) is the audio. It has a "tinny" sound. Is anyone aware of any way to improve that? I'm thinking of software solutions. I know I can use my ear buds or my Blue-Tooth speaker system but there are times when that isn't practical; such as showing a video to someone else. Thanks.
Have you tried : jetAudio HD Music Player or VLC Player???
If all of your music is downloaded into your phone into the file system there is an app called Poweramp in the Play Store..... It is amazing it's three bucks but you can have a three-week trial I have found it has Soothed me from not being able to have viper audio being that we are stuck without root. The only downfall is this EQ and music player system is for everything in your library or file system but the tweaks are great and it's full of features..... I just returned my G6 for a v30 plus it works on both.
We may be in the same boat I want something that works with YouTube and Google play music

I lied I just got it working with Google Play Music there's a ton of settings in it and it's sounding amazing you should try it out it's a free trial I attached a picture of what it looks like that way you don't have to pay if you don't like it but my car has garbage speakers and it really helps my Bluetooth Loud areas
There are game settings in the menu you can hike up and then the 7-band EQ the first bar all the way to the left is actually pre app control not EQ lol!
If you try it out and have any questions hit me up but I think this app works great I'm going to try and get it going with you tube. And if you like Last FM there is special settings for that app by itself
If you're a fan of Google Play music only I found this version of Dolby Digital just download and install it but do not open the app reboot your phone and install Google Play Music if Google play music is already installed then after you go through the reboot open Google Play Music go to the menu settings hit refresh then scroll down for equalizer and the Dolby app will open right up.....quite a few settings in it

Thank you for your suggestions. I tried VLC Player and it sounded pretty good but it kept losing my music. The music was still there but I had to keep pointing to the location. Anyway, I'm trying out Rocket Player right now.

Thank you for all your wonderful suggestions. Prior to seeing your post I tried VLC Player and it sounded pretty good but it kept losing my music. The music was still there but I had to keep pointing to the location. I'm trying out Rocket Player right now and it seems to work well. I'll probably check out Poweramp soon.
