Any System Level Equalizers That Work Over Bluetooth? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know of an equalizer app that works over Bluetooth for any Android phone running Android 8 or 9? Is it impossible to write an app that will do it because bluetooth streaming basically always turns the phone into a Preamp and you can only equalize at the streaming endpoint and can't alter the music signal before that? Or are there some phone manufacturers or music player apps that have built-in equalizers that will work over bluetooth? (Specifically I'd like to find one that works on LG Phones [V30/G8], using Google Play Music)

AVRCP support?

Hi
Anyone know the specifics of the Hero's AVRCP support?
I've got a set of Sony stereo bluetooth headphones with play/pause/skip controls on them. They work fine on the HTC audio player, even when the phone is locked I can control the music.
However i've just signed up to Spotify and installed the app.... the controls don't work at all, however music is played through the headphones. If the HTC music application is running in the background but paused, pressing 'pause' actually starts the HTC music playing instead of pausing Spotify! This is the same as other audio apps like Google Listen, audio comes over Bluetooth but commands are not listened to.
It seems HTC Music is hard-coded to intercept all AVRCP commands, and not pass them on to a more suitable program if one is running. Can this be changed at all?

Podcast/media players and headset controls

I listen to alot of podcasts (using either BeyondPod or Pocket Casts), and would like to control playback using headset remote controls - e.g. the play/pause button on a Sony MW-600 bluetooth remote, or the same on a Klipsch S4A headset. The problem is that headset controls like these usually fire up the default media player (PlayerPro in my case), rather than controlling the Podcast player (e.g. BeyondPod).
I could theoretically configure BeyondPod to use the standard Android media player instead of its built-in media player, but then I would lose the enormous benefit of it remembering where I left off when I pause a Podcast at the end of a journey.
Has anyone here worked out a good way of controlling a Podcast player using a headset remote?
Doesn't have PlayerPro an option to disable headset interaction?
In PowerAMP for example you can toggle if you want to handle handset commands or not, giving the chance to be handled by another app.

Yes I've discovered the option in PlayerPro to disable the headset control. Now I can control the volume using the headset controls in BeyondPod, but none of the other buttons are functional (on either the Sony MW-600 or the Klipsch S4A).
Has anyone here managed to get headset playback controls with BeyondPod?
Disconnecting audio controls from default music app
Hi,
I use my bluetooth headset mostly for listening to Audible and Google Listen.
Media controls automatically invoke default music player, and control it. Only volume controls work in other players.
Is there a way to associate a different player with the bluetooth media controls (stop/start/skip)?
I am using hydrog3n ICS on a Galaxy Sii, but I believe this is a generic issue.

[Q] Using bluetooth headset to hear media on ics rom

hi all
here is my question:
can i use the bluetooth headset to hear media mp3 player or others media i see an option on mp3 player to listen the music via bluetooth but when i make a scan nothing appear i can only use it for call's ? is it something miising on ics rom's i have try an application called bluemusic on ginger 2.3.6 and it's can root the media via bluetooth headset but it's in demo and i can buy the full one because i can't do this operation on my country so i there any other solution ?
thanks,
The only way is through a 3rd party app like BTmono i am using. Or you could buy a headset that supports media playback out of the box
I havent had any problems with music over bluetooth
What ROM are you using?
i am using ics wanam 10.7
Really you should try the BTmono app from the Play Store, it does the job for me. You just run it before the music player and all your audio is routed to the headset

[Q] music player app to use with bluetooth

What music player app do you use for bluetooth in your car?
I'm trying to find a player that will work with bluetooth in my car but every player I tried doesn't work in my car. No song info is shown and I can't change songs on the steering wheel, everytime I do it pauses and I can't get to play again through the car.
The stock player does all that but it doesn't have a good eq like poweramp or the fading options like that.
I've tried playerpro, rocket music player, jetaudio, and n7player but none of them work with bluetooth
N7 works over Bluetooth for me. Same with Google Play and numerous streamers like Pandora and Songza to name a few.

I have never had this problem ever, on several devices and cd players. But, my habitual usage includes Google play music app. It works well enough for me, and is fast on hsdpa or better.

Any player should work over BT. Once your connection is up, just navigate to the player and you should be good to go. Since BT is just providing the A2DP connection, the player doesn't care where the music is being sent to. It just plays it to the audio out source. I think your problem is your headunit, but can't be 100% sure. My players (all of them, both streaming and non-streaming) work on any BT car I've connected too. Some cars won't display the album cover art and so forth, but the music comes across just fine.
Well any music app will play music, but I can't seem to change the song from my headunit, it has to be changed from the phone. Changing songs from the car will pause it everytime.
I would like this feature to work with my car on an app like poweramp
For me, All the controls work from steering wheel for every music player I used (from stock to ASOP) May be it depends on car stereo too.

2 android devices (steering one another) (Spotify)

I have 2 devices, one is a tabled installed as car dash media and phone. I was wondering is there a way to control spotify with a phone or stream music through a phone on tablet with bluetooth. I know i can control playing if i'm logged to my spotify account but thats not what i want to have.
Mayby some player is able to recieve music from spotify on tablet and play or some app can controll and search on spotify installed on tabled. Any ideas?

I've searched and seen similar setups, it seems like it doesn't support, if it was supporting I don't think somebody would attach a headset to sound system.
It is something implemented in low level, in order to add such capacity you might need to find a rom which is capable or need to develop one. I asked because, it's the easiest way. In general your phone and tablet is acting as a driver/server for an headset. If a headset is connected, they cut their sound output on speaker or headphones and channels through headset. If there was a such a profile it would be extremely easy, if not it's as I said something in low level.
There are some streaming applications which you install a server to one device and a client to another. The applications are not transferring media played, but some sort of data that can be played in clients' integrated player, through implemented compression algorithm. There is SoundCloud synchronizer, but I couldn't find a Spotify version. It is also something hard to do if Spotify doesn't help.
Since, Spotify support WiFi speaker, you can try to find a way to turn your tablet into WiFi speaker. But, the applications I found requires a server installed on a PC, so it can be assumed that they don't actually mimic the protocol of WiFi speakers clients, still worth to try.
Another solution is implementing a virtual device as sound output in your phone, which will transfer the something supposed to be sound in desired protocol that can be played on the tablet.
