Max Pro M1 Audio Hardware - Hires Driver Support? - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

Morning one and all!
I am strongly considering this phone probably just 4gb variant (don't game don't really mind camera much).
I am an audio enthusiast so I have a request.
For Android exists the Hires Audio driver designed to provide a better interface to many USB DAC/ AMPLIFIER and also quite a few internal audio chips;
Extreamsd dot (the usual!) Is the place to find out more on this - both the android app, the driver itself, and somewhat hidden on there is a list of phones with known compatible INTERNAL silicon (which I hope we can add this phone to!)
I want to find out if the audio chip Inside the Max Pro m1 is currently supported by the somewhat confusingly named USB Audio Player Pro.
Installation of the trial and follow sin the instructions in the site above (sozzz @ cannot link yet ∆∆) wouldide us with the current answer. So, would someone kindly help me with this test?
thanks!

Bluetooth PC software : : Widcomm BTW 4.0

Exclamation Arrow Broadcom Corporation announced the Widcomm BTW 4.0, a new release of its Bluetooth software, with enhanced security and adding advanced audio/video (A/V) capabilities to the industry's most widely adopted Bluetooth software. The new software was tested and qualified for native support and seamless operation with Mcft's recently announced Service Pack 2 upgrade for the Windows XP operating system (Windows XP SP2).
Wireless, high quality stereo audio headsets and speakers enabled by the new WIDCOMM BTW (Bluetooth for Windows) 4.0 software is a new application expected to drive widespread Bluetooth adoption for consumers over the coming years. A/V enhancements built into BTW 4.0 software will bring a new level of audio quality to wireless headsets, enabling a generation of products capable of delivering CD-like stereo sound without the need for wires. The same A/V Bluetooth profile support can be expected to appear in upcoming consumer electronics products like MP3 players, cellular phones, PDAs, and other appliances.
The company sees wireless headsets or speakers enabled with this technology streaming high quality sound while also performing remote control functions such as pausing or stopping play, and selecting tracks. In addition, consumers can utilise wireless speakers, enabling enhanced sound and audio distribution for DVD and CD playback.
Broadcom's WIDCOMM BTW 4.0 incorporates the latest software "profiles," which ensure a common set of features between two Bluetooth devices. Bluetooth profiles are developed and standardized through the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG). BTW 4.0 features many of the latest profiles, which provide advanced multimedia capabilities including:
GAVDP -- Generic Audio Video Distribution Profile
A2DP -- Advanced Audio Distribution Profile
AVRCP -- Audio Video Remote Control Profile
BTW 4.0 also supports the Basic Imaging Profile, which provides the ability to "push" and "pull" images wirelessly between a mobile phone or digital camera and a PC.
"BTW 4.0 answers two distinct needs in the Bluetooth space: enhanced security, and the ability to effectively stream high-quality audio to wireless headphones or speakers. It is changing the dynamics of how consumers will experience multimedia content on their PCs," said Ron Wong, Senior Product Line Manager for Broadcom's Bluetooth software products. "Broadcom's unique ability to design and deliver all the critical technology pieces for next-generation wireless electronic devices enables our partners to bring products to market quickly and with features that hold great appeal for consumer markets."
PC OEMs are already shipping Bluetooth in a large number of their commercial notebook PCs and are expecting continuous growth and accelerated adoption into 2005. With this rapid adoption, large enterprises have expressed growing concerns over security and software virus spreads. The new WIDCOMM BTW4.0 software incorporates enhanced security capability to help address these concerns
The software is currently shipping to Broadcom's early access partners...and is available free of charge to all members exclusively

i tried it and installed fine but now my bluetooth isn't working when i try to start the BT i get this error "Your Bluetooth Software License doesn't include use with this bluetooth device. [6] and i have a billionton 100m bluetooth dongle
Somehow I'm doubtful that this really will do waht I'm looking for, has anybody tried it to get audio sent from the unit to their BT headset with this software?
BT 4.0 "patch"
You also need the attached to get the Widcom to work. Follow instructions in #2 folder.
I've got the same problem
What ya mean with folder #2 ??
Edit Aaah now theres a file
thanks man.. all working now..
Sorry forgot patch
after installing the Widcomm 4.0.1.700 software i can't set my computer as a handsfree device on my O2 mini (the voice gateway seems not to work too)...
both of them used to work.
anyone else has this problem? :?
BTW: how can i transfer files throw this bt software to my mini?
everytime i choose filetransfer it says the device doesnt support it.
even with MICROSOFT drivers i managed to send files to the device :shock:

I replaced the files from your .rar dewild1 but i get the same message when i'm trying to "start using bluetooth" : " Your bluetooth software license does not include use with this Bluetooth device". Is something that i can do to make them work? I had the "rom version 2.06.00WWE" and the "radio version 1.18.00" and i can't syncronize my xda to activesync via bluetooth, and i hoped that this driver will help me.

answering machine (without recording, I have read others)

Well from reading other threads I learned that an answering machine software is not possible due to lacking ability to record from the radio audio output (on most phones, possible on univ?).
Well then how about not recording, but automatic pickup and sending prerecorded audio? Would that be possible? Like in: someone calls my phone->software picks up and plays back prerecorded message to caller "I'm in a meeting, please call back at 5pm" ->software hangs up.
Possible or not? Who would be willing to write something like this?
I think there's the same issue - the phone audio path is seperated from the PDA audio path. Read Odeean's posts on TAPI and his frustrations. However, the http://teksoftco.com boys seem to have hinted that this may in fact be possible anyway.
It may be possible I suppose, by writing specific drivers, but I don't think any of us have ever tried I guess.

We'll keep you updated with what can be done altough the system is not built to support this kind of features. Firstly because in the US recording audio on phone conversation is ilegal so MSFT doesn't supports this and onestly i don't see HTC being able to offer this kind of support.
Also what Vijay outlined is correct... but we have a few more ideas that we are curently testing...as i said we'll post it if we succeded.
Cheers,
Raul
i believe that it is not a hardware limitation.
The sound from the gsm is not analogue. It passes through the OS somehow, otherwise how is the audio transmitted to the bt hfree?
I don't believe that the transmition of audio (from gsm) to the bt hfree is done only by hardware.
Please comment
andrew_sh is making a good point there. Maybe something can be done by "faking" bluetooth data input?
We have a working answering machine on Himalaya.
See last ROM from TofClock...
Good point made by Andrew. A new bluetooth headset driver or a fake one might do the trick. Cross your fingers guys.
The OS has evolved since Himalaya and HTC has restricted access to drivers by creating a locking mechanism and also the signing process is a hop to pass.
Guys, from my understanding and a poll I've run:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=40100&highlight=telephone+poll
it doesn't seem like many people have succeeded in recording calls, and those that have are generally using the Himalaya only. The gigabyte can, but it has custom hardware.
We've discussed spoofing the bluetooth audio path before by using a dummy driver and receiver, but mamaich has stated that the audio path for the bluetooth is in hardware only, and seperated from the interceptable paths in the OS.
Rain (for those who don't know, is one of the genii at http://teksoftco.com) - if you have any new ideas, may I ask you to PM me?
Odeean, Mamaich and I have had numerous discussions about this and I'd be interested to know how your research is going. I read that you guys have experience at low level audio driver work (great work on the speakerphone btw!), and I think that might be a good way to go. There is certainly some OS control of the audio path (speakerphone, mute, headset<>bluetooth etc), so I've thought about this way...

[Q] How do I get the system to return the currently used Bluetooth audio codec?

Dear XDA code pros,
I have a problem. I am currently programming a simple Android app which is supposed to confirm that an established Bluetooth connection from my phone (Galaxy Note II) to any Bluetooth audio device (e.g. a mobile BT speaker) uses aptX as the A2DP codec. To my knowledge, aptX is chosen automatically when the source as well as the sink are capable of aptX, so there has to be some form of negotiation between these devices when a connection is being established. If one of the devices is not aptX-capable, a lower level codec (such as the mandatory SBC) is used.
With the Android SDK and my basic programming skills I was able to shape an app that would display the desired information. However, I am now stuck at the code where I ask the system for the A2DP codec that is in use. I looked at the A2DP developing reference, but it seems that the information I can get there is very basic. I also found no hint on how to ask the system for this information in any other Bluetooth developer reference.
With the help of this forum, I learned that the information about possible codecs is embedded in the bluez stack, and that the use of aptX can in fact be intercepted by logcat. However, can this information also be extracted by code on a non-rooted stock phone with a simple app?
Any kind of help and hints will be greatly appreciated!!!
Best regards
the Interceptor

[Q] Support for Huawei ascend mate 2

I was wondering if there were anyway to get spirit light working with my Huawei ascend mate 2. When I launch the app it seems to be able to tune the stations but there is no audio output. Is there some settings I need to changes? I'd really like to be able to listen to radio over my bluetooth headphones.
Thanks for the help.
I'm unable to support most Huawei phones, and know little about them.
Do you see letters like "QC" etc. in the display when it starts ? What do they say ?
If it's rooted Spirit2 may work if it uses a Qualcomm FM/combo chip. Qualcomm SOC is needed, but doesn'g guarantee Qualcomm FM.
Just FYI, posting in my general thread will often get quicker answers than a new thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059296&page=924
I don't see any letters when I launch spirit1. Spirit2 gives me an error about no tuner api so I'm assuming spirit2 won't have any chance of working for me. I am rooted but my phone is an Asian version of the mate2 which uses a HiSilicon Kirin910 CPU whereas the NA version uses a qualcomm. When I scan channels in spirit1, the signal meter changes from channel to channel and is stopping on my local stations so it must recognize the tuner, no?

Looking for a board

Hello,
I am looking for a board to develop a project related to video recording.
One major drawback is the camera compatibility with Android. I need one to be recognized by the Android as a native camera, I guess it would be connected through MIPI-CSI. Is there aboard like this?
I have seen boards like PICO-PI-IMX8M and Dragonboard 410c but I can't find information regarding the native camera.
My needs for the board are:
- Not bigger than 90mmx60mm, the smaller the better
- Android
- Camera to be recognized as a native camera
- Low consumption
- Performance similar to IMX6 Quad
- At least 1 GB RAM
- HDMI output
- GPS, IMU would be a plus
- Bluetooth and WiFi
Best regards
