This app enables the use of your LG V10's high fidelity ESS DAC/AMP output mode for any app on your phone, not just the built-in music app. Use this app at your own risk! I'm not responsible for any damage done to your device! It is suggested that you only use this for music apps and YouTube, as games can be buggy. Expect extra battery drain!
NOTE: This app is ONLY intended to be used on the LG V10. Though it's possible that it may work on a select few other devices that have DAC setups similar to the LG V10's.

How to install DAC Fix for LG V10 APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download DAC Fix for LG V10 APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.phascinate.lgv10.dacfix-v1.0.1-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Clever, lightweight workaround to force your LG V10 to utilize its dedicated DAC for headphone audio in all applications. Highly recommend to all V10 owners!
5 ★God bless the creator of this app!! It is both sad and amazing - how LG guys have overlooked such an important thing as making the hi-fi mode of the DAC switch back and forth reliably, without stacking in the "crap-fi"! Even though I found the switch pretty soon when I began to be using my v10, I kept feeling some inexplicable discomfort sometimes. I would catch myself again and again on the impression that my previous value phone sounded better (Samsung Avant). I strongly suspect that the hi-fi switch in Settings is bugged. Or maybe some apps turn it to low quality, and then the DAC just stays "low-end" when you start Poweramp after that? (By the way, who in the freaking world needs 32 bit ? Rediculous! I had a demo piece of Prokofiev's "Romeo and Juliette" (4 mins of 32/192 music and 900 MB!) I have downgraded it to 24/96 and honestly could NOT hear ANY difference in my AKG 712 cans. OK, back to the gist. With this app installed the sound makes you happy right on and ever since. No suspicions, no weird impressions whatsoever! Silk and butter, warmth and clarity, fantastic soundstage.
5 ★Simply amazing. Thanks for creating this. You've got my vote! Btw, I had to restart my device to get it to work, so that's my heads up to folks downloading this.
1 ★It sux
5 ★Didn't crash. World of difference in sound now. Will have to see the battery consumption pattern though. Thank you Phascinate!
5 ★Wow totally works. Good job to the devs lg should give you some cash or some over the pants action for this at the very least.
5 ★Great app. For even louder experience on low impedance phones edit some values in system.
5 ★Good job due
5 ★Great and simple solution. By the way, this won't work with bluetooth because of how amp/dacs are wired, so don't worry if your bluetooth headphones don't respond to this.
2 ★Does not work with Android 6.0 kills 4G signal 4G signal calls down to 1x had to remove and restart phone, this was according to Verizon remove app restarted phone and was able to enable HD calling couldn't before may have been glitch.
5 ★It works but only some times, most of the time it does not work as it should. Please fix. Otherwise, great attempt.
5 ★This app solves the problem: Some say the HiFi DAC does not work together with all media apps, for the case of the European model variant H960, but it does. It is amazing that LG has not corrected this feature. It should clearly be a manual setting to define hifi or not, not some obscure automatic feature that sometimes work, sometimes not. And since the natal mediaplayer is granted a dramatically higher max volume level, unless this app is used, LG is actually violating EU regulations with regards to "auditory protection mechanisms". Why? Because, switching from e.g. Tidal to the native media player, your ears burns off unless you remember to turn down the volume before changing. This is a normal thing to do, hence the solution is idiotic . I am using Focal Elear and these headphones have now found their soul-twin. What a sound! On the move, the Huawei noise reduction earplugs are used, but these plugs are not (yet) working unless an "aux" 3.5 mm adapter is used in between to "fool" the LG "Headphone detection algorhitm. I anticipate it is possible to have this work too, and will investigate. Finally: Battery usage (with screen off) is non-alarming after upgr to Android 6.0.
