[H930] how to force an aptX Bluetooth transmission? - LG V30 Questions & Answers

Hi
I have H930 on rooted OREO (H93020d_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0326.kdz)
I use 2 sets of bluetooth headphones that support the aptX protocol.
RHA MA750 Wireless and Bluedio Victory.
Unfortunately, after connecting the headphones, the phone does not display in the notification bar in which protocol is connected.
Every time I connect the set to the phone I have to enter the programming options, to the Bluetooth
transmission where AAC is selected by default - and manually switch on aptX.
When I change it, I hear a break in the transmission and then it displays that it works in aptX and I can hear better sound from the headphones.
Is anybody know the possibility to force permanently this protocol?
Has anyone observed such a problem?
Best regards
figer

If the highest quality codec your headphones support is Aptx, then you can go to the bluetooth pairing settings of your headphones and select "Best Sound Quality" underneath "Connection type".

Could you give me the path?
Options / Network / Bluetooth / ???

Seems like your "V" headset doesn't even have that option. Check for the option with your "Bluedio" headphones. You should see "Connection type" above Pair/Unpair

V is my Bluedio Victory. They support aptX.
I switched to RHA MA750 Wireless and changed the language for you in my phone - please look in the attachments
When I change in advanced settings on aptX - it is aptX - until the headphones are disconnected.
On reconnection - AAC is default again

Hi, did you find any solutions for this? Have same problem here on oreo with aptx support headphones. The setting always going back to aac.

I didn't found any tool or resolution

I have very same problem on latest build on my LG G6

Same problem with V30+ and Audioengine B1

same issue on lg g7

Go to the dev settings and codec Bluetooth. Select APTX or APTX HD.
Work?
Regards.

have to do that with every connection.
lg sets aac before apt-x, who knows why

ahh.. you mention Dev Settings so I thought it was some app specific settings
Another option.. Maybe try the Fiio Music app? Read reviews that it gives you the option you guys are looking for. (Please note.. I myself do not use wireless headsets. just trying to help)

The problem is that lg sets aac higher than apt-x on devices that had both.
I have tried to contact them, no luck.
Having to manually select apex each thine of ridiculous

Has there ever been a fix for that? I have to select AptX in the Dev settings every time I connect my Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless to my V30 as they default to AAC every time I connect them again. This is really annoying but so far I wasn't able to change this behaviour - we probably can't, right?

changing Bluetooth settings

Hi. I'm using the phone for the last couple of days and I wanted to change Bluetooth quality settings (codec and bitrate) from dev menu, but it's greyed out. Any hints?
They stay greyed out unless you are actively playing media audio on your device, then you can change these settings in Developer Options (while you are playing a song). The settings, however, do not 'stick' and revert to the default AAC codec when you exit Developer Options. Hauwei needs to fix this in the next firmware update because older headsets use SBC and top of the line headsets use aptx. We need an option to change these settings and save the changes.
I m still not able to get Aptx its still grayed out

It has to be supported and advertised by the BT device.

You won't due it is not compatible with Kirin Chipset, just with SD
It's see the official link below

Not really.. the chosen codec/option will stick temporarily, it will remain the same until you disconnect the earphones even if you exit dev options. They do not revert to default when you exit dev options.
And yes, having to re-enter dev options and change again to the codec you want, every single time, is very annoying. The user's preference should be saved..
aptX is on by default on my unit (developer options).
Does the grey aptX has to white in the Bluetooth menu to be enabled?

Poor bluetooth audio quality

Hey guys,
I have connected my A3 to a roidmi in my car and i have noticed there's a very poor audio quality over a blurtooth. I have also checked it with a stereo in my living room. Does anyone else got a same problem? How to get over it?

Ya i do have this problem, its a bug that hasn't been fixed yet. Turn volume down by 3 steps and you will be fine.
just enable developer options and set it to the highest quality, by default it is using the lowest bandwidth with the lowest quality
There is an even more serious bug with this phone and Bluetooth : if you get a call while streaming audio to a Bluetooth headset, music stops as expected, but then playback fails after the call has been ended. You need to reboot in most cases in order to get back music playback.
Tested with several Jabra and Plantronics headsets and different music players.

Are you sure it's actually doing this? Because when I switch Bluetooth to using another codec or higher quality, then hit back button, then go back into dev options, all the settings are back to default, so I don't think it actually does anything. I have a Bose qc 35, which is supposed to support aac.

Try this Magisk module and increase the bitrate of SBC codec. You might need to experiment a little to find the best value for your setup. Start at the max (or just use the recommended value) and gradually decrease until it's stable. High bit rate SBC can have higher quality than APT-X (HD) - you will need to disable "HD Audio" in Bluetooth device setting to force usage of SBC.
I was using it with Mi A1, but haven't tried with A3 yet.

Btw. changing BT codec in developer settings never worked for me, not sure what's the purpose of it
Same problem for me. My bluetooth headset sucks at this device. I hope we can find an easy solution immediately

Its not the bitrate, it happened with me many times before so i can tell, phone boosts the volume past max for some reason which causes distortion, reducing volume fixes the issue

I'm trying this module. I turned on Bluetooth snoop logging to see if I can see what bitrate I'm actually getting connected with. There is text .log file enough which is only few bytes and a larger binary file with
cfa extension. You don't happen to know what format this is, do you?

CFA is a binary btsnoop file containing all the packets related to BT connection. It should be possible to open it on a PC in Wireshark. I couldn't find a way to open it on Android directly.

In my case (JBL Free X), this is not an solution, it's only quite better, when i set bitrate higher than 574
I think I have found solution for this problem. I have installed miui 11 on my mi a3. Then I have installed magisk and gjf_bt module. Noises no more. For some reason this module doesn't works on stock rom

Aptx HD?

Our phone was announced to be capable of aptx and aptx HD. I own two different bluetooth receivers with aptx HD enabled. But when I connect the phone to them, it uses only aptx, as the connection info on our device and the LEDs on the receivers reveal. This behaviour did not change from Android 9 to 10.
My wife has a Mi A2, and with this device aptx HD works on both devices under Android 9 and 10. Is there a hidden way to activate aptx HD on our phone? Meanwhile I think our phone is heavily neglected by Xiaomi because such features present in a Mi A2 mysteriously vanished.

It's on developer settings.
Also, if forcing aptx HD is not working or has bugs, remember to report it.
This was the first thing I tried, but predictably switching to aptx HD in developer settings has no effect (I wonder what use these settings have - I never heard that someone succeeded in activating codes this way which his phone didn't choose automatically).
Update: I changed to crdroid 6.6 - and now aptx HD works flawlessly.
Hi sir, today I've got issue with connection to Fii0 BTR3K - no sound from PowerAmp which I was using for weeks without problems before. I did security update from May yesterday (yep late a bit) and got this issue. Fortunatelly to me I have SBH50 from Sony to test everything on low profile SBC connection. Lucky to me, I did another update to August security patch for Android 10 today.
Now I have Aptx LL ([email protected]) working with BTR3K (purple indication on LED). What I learned from today: Do not touch Dev settings! By misstake Dev settings could store your input as wrong data in 'system default' for application (PowerAmp in my case) and lead to missfunction. In my case PowerAmp was reading [email protected] even from non-aptX device. Second: actual condition of connection could be changed during SW initialization. So test your player SW and try to reset it as I did.
For specified [email protected] I am using Hi-Res output of PA. I am pretty sure in numbers as I can hear the difference between SBC and aptX, and hear difference with 16 to 24 bit resolution change (by enabling\disabling tone processing in ounput pipeline). To enable 24 bit in PA you should disable \reset to default dithering method.
I think AptX-HD isn't fully supported by 2 reasons: no real benefits over LL profile + licensing catch.
Hope you will learn something from my evidence
I have haylou gt1 plus earbuds. Apart from bad connection , the buds are aptx-HD compatible, one of their selling points. When i go to developer settings to check, aptx is used. When I change it to HD, it detects the change, nothing happens, and when I go back, and enter dev settings again, it is still on aptx . I think that's time to throw it in the sea... it's already blue
Sapper Morton said:
Your earphone doesn't support AptX-HD, that's why when your manually change to it using Developer Options, the codec isn't selected; use AptX or AAC, as advertised by Haylou.

It's weird cause all reviews I read, specifically said aptx-HD, but you are right. It's only aptx. Nevermind. My mistake !

Question Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G High Definition Audio Codec Compatibility

Does it support any High Definition Audio Codecs like ApxHD/LHDC?
I haven't been able to find any useful Information.
I haven't been use HDAC but i can see those settings in the developer set.
Does this mean that it can be turned on?

The headphones are more impotent than the codec. But "aptX Adaptive" is also supported.

Nice, thanks! What I am still missing is information if "aptX Voice" is supported. It is a feature in "aptX addaptive", but I read somewhere (but am not sure if this is true) it is an optional feature.
I would like to know if I can boost the quality of my voice calls by buying a new "aptX Voice" enabled headset.
Too bad mine don't support aptX

Question Does this device do apt-x?

I am almost ready to pull the trigger on buying this phone but just wanted to be sure of the audio options first.
If I pair my BT headphones and go into developer options then I can set the Bluetooth codec to aptx. Does this mean that the phone supports this? I have seen reports that aptx is not available on Samsungs but this seems to contradict that.
If I have to go into dev options and enable it myself - that is fine.

In the dev settings, there are these options:
SBC (active for me)
AAC
aptX
LDAC
Scalable Codec
But I'm not sure if aptx works. I'm using SBC with the Buds+

I tried it with my Haylou GT1 Xr that supports aptX recently and it worked just fine. Looked under dev settings and aptX was showing as currently used codec. You should be fine.
