Anyone in direct communication with Cyanogen Mod Devs? Can we get them to talk about their software stack?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 2, 2012 at 11:30 PM, Ben M <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ben@sixgirls.org">ben@sixgirls.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

That is saying a LOT. It is not suitable for playback in an open space stereo but with quality headphones the sound you can get out of a cooked rom surpasses anything I have ever heard aside from a direct line out of an amp EVER.<br>
<br>
I would like to focus for a bit on learning how audio is handled in an android device, who wrote the soft dsp for CM7 and how can a motivated user control their audio totally?<br>
<br>
I am left with going on android developers and searching for roms that mostly work. I just want the DSP on mostly stock rooted devices. I want to be able to switch on the fly from "wet" to "dry" signals if I am moving between headphones and stereo.<br>

Subject: [Tiny-tux] Android Usability Workshop,<br>
for the user or the rooter: Jan 15, 2012, 4pm, at Noisebridge<div class="im"><br>
<br>
If you can't open it, you don't own it! How many times have we heard or<br>
read that? Doubtless, we've heard it or read it on our most closed and<br>
inaccessible possessions! The contracts make us feel like we are renting,<br>
software that serves the carrier more than the user, but they are ours and<br>
they should operate under our terms.<br>
<br>
So, I would like to propose that NoiseBridge host an "Android Usability<br>
Workshop" event where people of all skill levels and personalization<br>
commitments gather to truly make people feel at home with their devices.<br>
<br>
I invite people to talk about:<br>
<br></div>
- Productivity<br>
- App selection<br>
- App development<br>
- Customization<br>
- Rooting<br>
- ROMs<br>
- Spyware, bloatware, nagware, and how to scrap it all<br>
- Skirting the the boundaries of the ELUA and getting what YOU want from<div class="im"><br>
YOUR device.<br>
<br>
And a personal favorite of mine<br>
<br></div>
- Android as an embedded platform<div class="im"><br>
<br>
Among other things, I would like people, before the event, to talk about<br>
what they want out of their devices. So, feel free to reply with how you'd<br>
like to get the most out of your phone!<br>
<br>
How can people help?<br>
<br></div>
- If you feel like a resource but are worried about becoming over<div class="im"><br>
committed, message me directly and we'll see if there are others with<br>
similar or complimentary skills so that no single person is left fielding<br>
all the interested users<br></div>
- Tastebridge, care to help FEED people?<br>
- Got some friends at Google working on Android? Anyone from Motorola,<div class="im"><br>
HTC, Samsung, etc? Have a club, a bag, and a locking trunk? GOOD! Kidnap<br>
them and drag them along! We have ways to make them talk.<br>
<br>
If people use the book of faces,<br>
