HT204387 iPhone 6+ A2DP implementation and blutooth sound quality

My iPhone 6+ plays over blutooth to volkswagen RNS810 media system with much lower sound quality than CDs or even AAC. Normally I cannot tell the difference between AAC and CD in my car. Does the A2DP implementation here send AAC files from iPhone to RNS810 or there is some other re-compression going on on the way ? Also no titles show on the RNS810 screen. How to get best sound quality here and see track information on RNS810 screen? TIA.

I had the same problem on my 4s after the update. I rebooted phone and all is well.
Hope this works for you.......

IPhones 3GS dead pixel and bad sound quality

As i was going through some photos i notice a small white dot then looking closer to the screen i recently notice about 4 dead pixels and also when playing music through headphones the sound quality is not clear. I tested my iphone and a ipod touch with the same song and the results were the ipod touch had better sound than my phone. Can apple fix this?? Thanks

As for dead pixels, Apple considers a small number as unavoidable with LCD displays and covers only a "high number" under the warranty. Apple would have to inspect the phone and determine if it's a covered defect. Make an appointment with an Apple Store Genius Bar.

HT200006 My iPhone 5 is freezing and the sound Is not loud how it should

My iPhone 5 has been freezing locking by itself and the sound is not loud how its use to be can someone tell me why this is happen I have only had this phone for this year

wait it for your iPhone to die then before it turns it plug it into iTunes while holding the home button and it will force it into recovery mode.
will be hard to get the timing right cause u will need to wait for the battery to die and charge up again. Other then that just take it to apple and have them replace the device for a fee.

How do I make screen brighter and the sound quality better with W8 OS on my iMac through bootcamp assistant like it is with my mac os ?

How do I fix my screen brightness on my imac via W8 OS on my Imac through boot camp assistant and How do I fix the quality of the sound coming from my imac when in w8?

Alright, first off, thank you for your help so far. I really appreciate it. However, now I have a new problem that I need help with.
I did exactly what you've said to do, and it worked fine, the screen itself became brighter again, it was just too dim before and the brightness settings were all the way up, but after doing what you said to do, It's as it is when using my Apple/Mac OS. The sound coming from the computer speakers and all the other audio issues have been fixed as well. It all sounds like it should in terms of quality. It's just now that I did that, I'll shutdown my computer, or even restart it for some reason, and each and every single time I do that, It's all back to the way it was before installing anything, dim and poor audio quality. Until I install the drivers again like before.
Am I going to have to get used to that or something? Or is there an option I'm just not seeing that would make these preferences and instalations permanent until I input/imply otherwise??
Thanks in advance!!

I have just updated my iPhone to ios 6 and my sound is now dodgy.

It is all fuzzy and won't go to the top volume it used to. Any ideas or solutions??

Hi ckuan,
Thanks alot for the advice - great to see there are so many helpful people out there . Anyway, I followed your instructions and although some of the apps transferred from i tunes to my iPad the first time, unfortunately some of the apps that I selected to transfer (which were purchased) did not transfer. There were only a few but it would have been great to have got them back onto my iPad!
Chow for now!

IPhone 4s - Battery issue and poor voice quality

I had bought my iPhone in May this year. It was working fine till i think a week back battery started to drain quickly at 10% every hour. I have configured office exchange account for mail and accessing global exchange contacts, Google account as exchange for contact sync and iCloud. i dont keep any contacts on exchange, keep in Gmail only. Was Android user earlier.
I read a lot of posts and tried all solutions such as turning off timezone service in location, turn off and delete all email accounts, kept manual sync for emails, ran the battery down till switch off and charging back to 100%, removed apps i doubted could be syncing data in background, turned off locaiton service totally, turned off calendar, turned calendar notifications, turned of iCloud reminder, notes but no effect. Wifi and Siri are also off.
I notice today that I am getting small circle near operator name rather than E symbol (for edge)and at the same time voice quality of person on other end is bad too, can hear small cracking , clicking sounds, voice breaks. Otther person can hear me properly. I get back E symbol in some different place than my desk. I havent changed my desk so thats not a possibility either.
Someone had suggested queued network thread with exchange can cause the issue so Installed System Activity Monitor app but it doesn't show battery graph or which process is taking CPU or network time. Moreover, it shows 4-5% less battery level than on top in disharging mode !!
Used to get good stats of what is eating the battery in my old HTC Desire but iPhone doesn't offer such feature to diagnosis. Ideally should not be required if phone works as expected.
What do I need to do to get battery life and voice quality back? I will try voice again at home just to rule out bad network at work.
Thanks,
Ashish

Well, most of what you did is black magic, and has nothing to do with battery drain. But we have no way of knowing how your battery life is below what you think it should be. What are you using it for, what apps do you have, and how much Usage life do you get (settings/general/usage).

Why is the sound quality on iPhone 5s videos so poor compared to iPhone4?

I used to take lots of videos with my iPhone 4 at nightclubs and or music shows and the sound quality was always very good.
Now I have just bought an iPhone 5s and the last thing I expected was that the sound on videos would be clipped and distorted badly. Does anyone have any suggestions, or is it simply that the new phone is rubbish compared to the old one (I really hope not)?

It could have to do with the noise-cancelling microphone on the device. If you are in a loud area such as the shows, it is trying to single out a sound, normally closest to the phone. I'm not exactly sure if this is the case when recording video. I just know you can turn it off in Accessibility, but that mentions phone calls. Worth a test though.

Sound quality is extremely poor out of iPhone head jack.

I have tried every EQ setting the phone has and the sound quality is no way even close to my old Dell MP3 player. It is so bad I am keeping my Dell JukeBox and not using the phone. Why is it so bad? Doesn't Apple have a clue?

+Maybe all the extra electronics on the iPhone (wifi/bluetooth/EDGE) is interfering with the sound coming out.+
You might be right -- you can do some testing by using your phones with another iPod or device as close to the iPhone as you normally use your headphones and see if the interference is still there. If so, it's the iPhone (interference is unlikely to go down the wire, particularly two or three feet away).
I'm with the majority here -- sound is superb (at least on the movies I play -- I don't play music on my iPhone as that's what my Nano is for :>)

Iphone 5 poor outgoing sound quality

Don't want to sound stupid but I am getting complaints that I sound like I am inside a tunnel. I tested my iphone5 and outgoing sound quality is up and down. for a few seconds it is normal then it drops and then again normal and drops again, like a wave. Any sugestion? Anybody experienced it?

We finally gave up on the iphone 5. I think it is a dud. We started to address our issues by speaking to Verzion tech support. They recommended a reboot / restore of the phone. No joy. They passed us on to Apple. Apple thought I was crazy, but replaced the phones. Ten minutes later, was still having the same issues described in an earlier post. Over time, they became more prominent. Worked with Apple support over the phone and email. Worked with a more senior technician and even he became baffled by the problems, but atleast acknowledged that their was growing evidence their was a problem. Apple could provide no solutions to any of the 4 issues I posed, nor could they provide a timeline for an OS update that might resolve some of the problems. After listening to crappy calls for more than a month and having my ear pop no less than three times a day on phone calls, we finally threw in the towel. Apple / Verizon could do nothing but recommend reset processes and genius bar appointments to consider replacement. How many times do you have to replace it to acknowledge that a problem exist in the device, not just one of the devices??? Verizon agreed to free us of our contract and we returned the phones to the vendor, albeit for a very reduced restocking fee. We couldn't get them to agree to nothing given all the technical issue we'd had; but honestly, it was worth the nominal fee to be done with it. We went back to AT&T and decided not to risk the iphone 5 even on their network. We went with the Samsung Galaxy SIII and it has been great. Great sound, great speaker, great functionality, no popping, fluid messagin, etc. No complaints. The iphone 5 was / is just plain disappointing when you take a step back and look at the what Apple has done, and then compare it to the Galaxy. Apple is losing its edge fast; and that's coming from someone who owns an iMac, Macbook pro, iPad, ipod, and 2 ipod touches. Look at the new touches... same thing different shape. How inventive.

Just Upgraded to iTunes 10 and Noticed WORSE SOUND QUALITY!! Please Help!

I have been using iTunes as my preferred media player ever since I can remember. I have never noticed a decline in sound quality. I recently upgraded to iTunes 10 and for the very first time found the sound to be simply inferior.
Initially I thought it was in my imagination, then i started testing to see if the speakers were at fault and they were not. I ignored it, but it kept on bugging me.. Eventually i loaded up old Windows Media Player and played THE SAME FILE and it sounded WAY BETTER!!
I tried fiddling with the sound enhancer and the sound check but it just isnt great.. I played songs off iTunes 9 on my sister's computer and the sound quality is higher..
Am I the only one having this problem? I have upgraded iTunes many times and this is the first time I'm experiencing this lack in audio playback quality.. I would hate to back up my library and re-install iTunes 9... Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

I do have my grumbles with iTunes, the biggest being the installer.
It's not good at removing problems from previous versions and can bring up new problems on newer versions too, they just get carried across or are made worse. Basically they should have an option to do a clean install, (remove all trace of iTunes on the computer, not including the library, just runtime files.) I think you'll find it can mess up registry keys on new installs.
Make sure you backup your iTunes library first.
So you're probably better off finding a way to COMPLETELY remove the iTunes runtime files, and re-installing it again and see what happens.

TS1718 Rental Video Sound Quality

ITunes 9.0.2 sound quality issue

Since I installed iTunes 9.0.2 I have sound quality problems. Everything sounds like a bad 64 bit mp3 song - when I listen to the same track in QuickTime or VLC everything sounds as it should.
I checked all settings in iTunes but can't figure out the problem. No active equalizer, sound via line-out to high-quality AKG headphone.
Does anybody have the same issue - or maybe a solution?
Thank you for your advices ...

Not to belabor this, but in case there are others with similar issues, I wanted to add what I hope will be a coda to our whole story. Today after playing one or two songs we were back to the static and poor sound quality--even with the replacement amp! In both cases (old and new amp) we had the airport express connected via the "phono" port, so this time we tried another port--and it seems to be working fine for an entire album's worth of jazz.
I googled the problem and right away turned up the following sentence in the Airport Express setup guide at http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/AirPortExpress_SetupGuide5.1.pdf.
"Note: Do not connect AirPort Express to the phono jack on your stereo."
No elaboration is given, but I can certainly attest to the validity of this advice. Whatever you do, in connecting to your stereo, don't use the phono port!

Itune 6 sound quality problem

I just downloaded itune 6 and the sound quality is horrible - distorted and fuzzy sound.
I thought it was my speaker so I listened through quicktime and the quicktime played alright.
Any idea? did I do something wrong?
my computer's G4 powerbook / panther.
please help me if you have any solution.

Hi, i think i've got the same problem as you, the music played in iTunes 6 has a hiss whenever there's something being played; whether it's mp3 or CD. if i play the same file in Windows Media Player, it's perfectly fine there.
I was using iTunes 4.9 before upgrading to 6, and everything was fine then. I really hope this gets fixed soon, i'm using iTunes everyday at work.
If Apple's reading this, please solve this quick! <=(

How to get an iPhone app to implement A2DP?

I use a Plantronics Voyager Pro BT headset, and just found out the hard way that it doesn't support A2DP, so I cannot hear any iPhone audio on it other than phone calls. I understand that there is an app for jailbroken phones (Bluetooth Mono for iPhone) that can implement that functionality, and there is a legal app for the Droid that does the same thing.
There must be a large market for people who'd like to do this with their BT headsets. How does one go about requesting a legal app like that? From whom?
BC

the problem with A2DP is that when a Headset that supports A2DP is connected to the iPhone 4 no sound come through the headset for Texts or email.
Here is what I have found...
I have my iPhone set to play sounds and vibrate for alerts
I have ensured the phone is not on Silent via the side switch
When my iPhone is connected via bluetooth to another headset that doesn't support A2DP (e.g. BlueAnt V1) the phone will sound an audible alert via the phone speakers when an email or text message is received as well as vibrate. Additionally no sound is heard through the headset.
When my iPhone is connected via bluetooth to my new Voyager Pro+ (supports A2DP)the phone does not sound an audible alert via the phone speakers when an email or text message is received. The phone only vibrates. Also no sound is heard through the headset.
It seems to me that the headset goes into standby and email tone is too short.
By the time the headset responds to the sound, the sound is already over.
I could change the text tone to something longer, but the new sounds are obnoxious and the standard tri-tone is too short.
If there was a way to allow the iPhone's internal speakers to play sounds while on a A2DP headset (like an override switch) it would be ideal.
