Aeolus Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) @maxmp Poweramp is failing to activate 32bit on LG V60 after Android 11 update. When I use hires out it just uses 24bit and doesn't use 32bit anymore. LG V60 Android 11 Build 899 Edited March 14, 2021 by Aeolus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Do you still have the unlocker app installed (assuming this is a Google Play purchase, you don't mention)? What error messages do you see? Andre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewilley Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Sorry, I misread your post as failed to Activate (i.e. a trial/licenced issue). Android firmware versions can make a difference as to what frequencies/bitrates they support (or even break hi-res completely). Try going into PA Settings > Audio > Output and restoring defaults again, which will remove anything previously picked up for Android 10 and give you a clean slate for 11. Also some devices (Samsung particularly, but also others) lock frequency and bitrate (so 192kHz will be 24-bit, and 384kHz will be 32-bit). To be honest there is no real advantage whatsoever to 32-bit output anyway - even 24-bit provides the dynamic range of silence up to a hearing-damaging 144dB (louder than being next to a jet aircraft during take-off).

Aeolus Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 It used to sample 32bit 384khz when I listen to my DSD files now it just samples them at 24bit 192khz. I tried restoring the audio settings but that didn't do anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Which output method are you using, and what frequency options does it offer you via the Settings > Audio > Output > (chosen method) > Cogwheel icon? The current results of Settings > Audio > Advanced Tweaks > Audio Outputs Detection Log might help too. @maxmp might be able to offer more insight into this if he has an LG V60 with that particular firmware update.
