I just finished an extensive test whereby I copied one R1L file at a time into the R1BC drivers to find which file is causing the hissing in the R1BC drivers. With each file I always started with a fresh set of R1BC drivers on the phone. I am 100% sure that I have found the one file that is responsible for the hissing. It is PHF_2_play.apf - no doubt about it. I have tested twice and I have found that adding only the R1L version of PHF_2_play.apf to original set of R1BC drivers makes the hissing almost unoticable. The difference really is dramatic! The Static noises and crackles between songs are also dramatically reduced! Unfortunately, at full volume there is still distortion. BUT, if you don't pump the EQ all the way up the sound seems quite acceptable - probably just as good as the orignal drivers. In fact, if you're like me and like to pump the eq to the max on all settings you may just find that pushing all settings no furhter that full orange will result in the same max volume as the original drivers without the distortion. I now reckon the distortion only happens because PHF_2_play.apf results in louder volume when the EQ is maxed out than the phone can handle.
Everyone, try it. I'd reall like to know what you think. I'm pretty sure this is the best we are going to get and all you need do is copy one file!

I've been really picky about the sound quality through out this exercise. Just to make sure I was sure of what I stated above I just tested several songs back to back at both max and low volume. i.e. original R1BC with EQ set to full versus R1BC with PHF_2_play.apf from R1L and EQ set to full orange (not red). With these settings I don't think I can tell the difference at max volume. And, the low volume improvements are major. I've tested for an hour now and am convinced that what I said above is the best resolution so far for the hissing bug. |

@mongoose3800
Kindly provide us with the step by step procedure to do this wherein all that is needed is to copy one file. By the way, is it easy to revert back to original R1BC in case we find something wrong? Thanks mate!

arnarn911: The steps are (at your own risk):
1) Obtain a copy of the original R1L acoustic drivers. AKSD kindly provided a link to them in the 1st post in this thread: http://rapidshare.de/files/23[....]Acoustic_R1L_and_R1BC.rar.html
2) Connect to your phone with FAR and navigate to ifs/settings/acoustic
3) Backup the entire contents of ifs/settings/acoustic to a suitable location on your computer.
4) Use FAR to copy PHF_2_play.apf from original R1L driver set to ifs/settings/acoustic.
5) exit FAR cleanly, unhook your phone, turn on your phone.
To undo the changes simply copy back your backup copy of PHF_2_play.apf
It's that easy.

I replaced the PHF_2_play.apf from the R1BC driver set with the R1L driver set, but there is quite a hiss from the phone's speaker. Well, I have to put my ear all the way up to the speaker to hear it. I haven't tested it with the earphones yet.
My acoustic drivers are all R1BC except for the R1L PHF_2_play.apf.

just try the acoustics from w810 they have no hissing and the media player hears a lot louder. i'm trying now to put more bass in the fm player. i've managed to do that but the speaker options for fm radio doesn't work no more. I have an exam tomorow but i'll try to modify de apf flies and sent them to you tomorow... |

I also have the farfield_play.apf and farfield_ring.apf from the W810i already installed. It definitely makes the ringtones a lot louder + good quality when I do the MP3 for ringtone trick.
Edit: I just tested it with the headphones. The hissing is virtually inaudible. I don't even think there is hissing anymore...
Great job guys. I'm using the PHF_2 play whatever file from R1L, and the W810i farfield play/ring acoustics.

hissing problem was solved but the cost is it made MegaBass almost unuseable...

Is it possible to copy ifs\\settings\\acoustic folder from a w810 to a w800?
