Install App From another Android?

I got my self the hero, and my wife the Moment. I am slightly jealous of the hardware she has..but that aside, I am in love with my Hero.
However, she does have one app that i really want and the market place does not have. I assume this is an app installed by sprint.
It is Photo and Video uploader. You set an email address or other location and after a video or photo is taken, it automatically uploads the photo to the predetermined destination. GREAT FOR BACKING UP PICTURES! But, her camera hardware blows. 3.2 MP and it is sooo slow. So picture quality is no where near that of the Hero's 5 MP.
So the real question here - -
Can I ADB into her phone and just take the .APK and ODEX file for this app and push it to my phone? Is it that easy???

Some apps are that easy. Give it a try and find out! The worst thing you'll get is some force closes.
However most stock apps require files from /system/lib that help run that apk. And they don't have the same naming convention therefore you won't know which one(s) it is amongst the 100s there. But I always say try and see what happens.

And if it works upload that .apk for the rest of us!

Thinking out loud here...well..you get the point.
Could I copy all of system/lib and only copy the files that dont already exist?
That could be a giant waste of space though, and it could still rely on a file that I have, not just one that isn't there....
Also since I am not "installing" the app, could Apps2SD hinder me? I am not entirely sure how a2sd works other than tricking the phone into using the SD card as a partition and unioning it with the existing part.
I love how open android is supposed to be, but how the darn manufacturers kill us with the different platform crap.

Am I aloud to do that? I have seen XDA Mods get on to some people about uploading APK's. I guess I should read the EULA for that app before I do?

Copying the ../lib/ over and not replacing existing files could work. lol. As for apps2sd... you kind of have two ways you can try installing this. Without copying the lib and all that just try putting the apk on to your sdcard and browsing to it using astro or linda (a file manager) and click on the apk and installing it. See if it errors out or fails. If it does, THEN try copying it and the odex to /system/app (if it has an odex I'm pretty confident you won't be able to install it using package manager). If that still fails then you can go crazy and trying copying the lib ha.

I don't remember if I read it on here or ppcgeeks but I believe officially the only stock apk's not allowed is quick office. But don't quote me on that.

So I hooked up to the Moment through ADB last night.
Found out really quickly that I can SU with it....
There is a "non permanent" hack out there to become root, but I tried it and still couldn't mount the file system to copy from it.
Any ideas guys?
From what I understand the Moment uses an FS16? file System? Something Odd that non of the other droids seem to be using.

Just an Idea, thought I would throw it out there.
Does the temporary root allow for running applications as root an the device itself?
There is an app in the market called root explorer that allows copy/paste/cut/delete from the system/app folder.
It may be possible to use that app to copy the needed filed to your sdcard and then extract them from there.
This would all be contingent on the app being able to mount the directory as r/w though, so who knows, worth a shot though i guess.

This root doesn't allow you to run Root apps. not sure why, seems like root would be root.
After some reading, the root method that is being used on the Moment is not the safest. Apparently if you skip a step you have a brick. And with no Nandroid backup at the moment(pun?) I would HATE to attempt it. Apparently though Root sticks until you reboot. There is an INit. script that runs and resets the permisions.
I know, "Don't skips steps and you'll be ok"
I may get brave and try it tonight...

as far as I can tell you cannot install this app on the hero. I'm not sure what the app is called and unless it starts in the /data folder it is under the system dumps

ROCK ON! Thanks for the link to the dump, I hadn't thought about looking around in one of these.
I will post what I find out.

WOOT IT WORKS!!!!!
So any how the application is in that Dump under apps, its only an APK
xms-android-1.0.42-prod.apk
If you are interested in what it does:
You setup predetermined "places" Flikr, FB, EMAIL, what ever.
Any picture or video you take automatically gets put in an upload queue and it sent to your predetermined places.
I am using it for back up, I have 2 kids and sometimes the cell phone is the quickest way to snap a great picture. Keeping these pictures in mutltiple places, like your 7 gig google account, is a nifty way to backup.
I am waiting for a Mod to get back to me if I can post the APK or not. I don't want to get in trouble.

wonder if their youtube app has better picture quality than ours?

I will let you know in a few minutes. As soon as I get done with my WiFi teether I will compare the two. Pretty sure they should be the same.
EDIT: I am not sure if it is hardware or not. Running the same youTube video side by side - Our HERO has better color quality, Deeper blacker. The Moment has slightly sharper edges to the pictures, not quite as blurry. the moment does not go "Full Screen" for videos either which could be contributing to the sharper look to things. My assumption would be that this is a difference in the hardware. Quality of youTube videos seems to have diminished over the years anyways, none of the really look "good" any more. Probably in an effort to save bandwidth.
However, if you want to take a look personally, I will post the APK for you. Just please don't blame me if you forget to back up the original and want to revert....I love disclaimers.

I was trying to use that picture uploader, for me it stalls on picking a new location. Wonder if it is because I am on gutted rom and missing some pointers somewhere

I am using MoDaCo + Optimizations w/ ZipAlign. Not sure if its worth the switch for you or not.
I have never used Gutted so I do not know what it offers/doesn't have.

Gutted is as vanilla as our Rom can get. It's quick too

that's pretty cool and sounds like a great idea for backing up pics so what all would I need to do to get this and install it I have root access already

Wow... that's a really cool program... and just so you know, you can "install" it using adb and it still works fine
Code:
adb install xms-android-1.0.42-prod.apk
Then it will install in /data/apps (or if you have apps2sd, on the sdcard under /system/sd/apps)
Works great on the Sprint Hero and MoDaCo ROM

The only rule regarding it would be
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.

which your app doesn't fit in to. Posting it is not outside of the rules and should be fine.

[Q] disappointed in the 3.5 roms i must he doing sonething wrong right?

So these ses 3.5 roms coming out (I won't name spacifics so to not offend anyone) are disappointing me so far I don't see any difference except the massive amount of lag and minimal changes to the appearence of the pop up menus. I can't figure out where the New clock widget is or how to install it. and if its apart of the 3.5 why isn't is stock with the roms? I hope I'm just missing a piece to the puzzle here. But so far I don't feel that the 3.5 has been captured successfully yet when comparing to the videos of the ryhme or bliss.
I mean I really want to enjoy the update has anyone achieved this?
Anyone want to put in their 2 cents? ,
I didn't bash anyone on here so I would appreciate no bash back.

1. What new clock widget?
2. Name the ROMs, but I have had NO issues using my ROM and other 3.5-based ones at all

the full screen clock widget with the app drawers aligned to the left. I mean Im sure i can find a good kernel for the 4.1.0 to improve on the leg. maybe my expectations were too high or maybe i have a perfect setup for me on 3.6.1. but im trying to embrace it the new 3.5, maybe you can tell me some of the advantages.
and please tell me if i got someting wrong with the clock widget Im talking about.i hope its just something im over looking, its not in widgets or apps.
edit. sorry im talking about arhd 4.1.0

THAT clock widget is only in the Bliss ROMs - it's in no other ROMs as it's in the lesser version of 3.5

It's a widget called Shortcuts or Quickstart or so, I have only seen it in German.
I have seen it in the RCBliss and in Synergy. In Synergy however I get display corruption. Only text is showing, which is a shame. Love the new widget, really awesome.
But I must agree, rest of 3.5 in most parts is boring.

ok see thanks i was getting frustrated. that was the only reason why i wanted to upgrade but i guess ill just stick with what i got for now. maybe ice cream SANG which will have some more attractions.
has anyone explored the 2.3.7 ginger bread?i read a brief article on it.( while we are discussing the latest in android development)

Seeing as we've not officially got 2.3.5 yet I don't think we'll see 2.3.7 any time soon - not with Sense anyway

Ya still an interesting topic tho

One question, kind of off topic but I downloaded my digital copy of transformers to my sensation and have not found an application yet that can play the file. Not even mono player pro. They all force close when attempting to play. Is it because it's a digital copy and there's a lock on it? Properties say it's readable and writable. How can I get around this.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think Digital Copy is for Apple/iTunes devices only. Are you pulling it from your iTunes and placing it directly onto your SD card? I have a couple Digital Copy movies I have tried to drag over, and they do not play as they are protected media.
If you have a Mac, download Handbreak (free) and rip your DVD's to MP4. If you are on PC, find an MP4 converter on the web (most likely not FREE) and use that. Both work gloriously!! Like iTunes, Digital Copy is weird. Hope that helps.

No this one is available via windows 7 which why I've been trying to move it to my android. When i got the batman dark knight digital copy on my Mac it wouldn't even let me transfer it being a protected file.
However with transformers I was able to transfer the file onto my sd card no problem. The file name is DOTM_PC_ENG_WMV I don't know what all that other stuff is but being that WMV is the last I figured any media player should play it.
I'll try a converter but ya the digital copies are stupid not even good quality. I get it its to protect against piracy but come on.

Agreed. If we've paid for it once, we should be able to do whatever we want with it, even copy it as long as we aren't selling it. Hollywood are Nazis in disguise.

Updated 14/04[Camera Mods] 4K, 1080p and 720p bitrate increase

Hi there. About 5 days back I posted up a question over on the other forum section asking if there was any way to do this and never got any replies. I decided to go searching and found an awesome XDA user called tomascus who in the past has modified other device cameras and some of the Xperia Z range cameras to increase bitrates when recording. He was nice enough to modify the 4K camera APK for me and I wanted to share it with anyone else who has been looking for the same thing as I was. Remember to thank him if you see him around!
There are two files now three files.
The first is;
SuperVideoCamera-xxhdpi-release.apk
This is the file you want if all you need is the 4K bitrate increase. It's set to record [email protected] 80mbps.
To use it copy the file using a file explorer with root access to the
system/priv-app/SuperVideoCamera-xxhdpi-release folder and give it the permissions 644.
I would strongly suggest you rename the original rather than overwriting it or deleting it just in case something doesn't work or you want to go back to normal.
Clear the camera app's data/cache and restart then you should be good to go.
The second file is just a modified media-profiles.xml
You don't need this unless you also want to modify the bitrates of [email protected] and [email protected]
The APK above will change the 4K bitrate without needing this file.
You can use just this file on it's own and not the APK above if you don't want to change the 4K recording but want the increased 1080 and 720.
To use this one, copy the file to the system/etc folder and give it permissions 644 and reboot.
Again, I really think you should rename the original rather than overwriting it for the option of changing back.
I set the bitrates as;
[email protected]= 54mbps
[email protected]= 24mbps
These settings also apply to recordings taken using the Timeshift camera feature.
The third file is SemcCameraUI-generic-xxhdpi-release.apk
This one will modify just the [email protected] 60FPS bitrate up to 54mbps
To use it do the same as the first file and copy it using a file explorer with root access to the
system/priv-app/SemcCameraUI-generic-xxhdpi-release folder and give it the permissions 644.
Rename the original rather than overwriting it or deleting it just in case something doesn't work or you want to go back to normal.
Clear the camera app's data/cache and restart then you should be good to go.
As far as I have tested everything worked fine. Please let me know if you have any problems and I'll try fix them.
I've added copies of the original files on the next page in case anyone ever needs them.

Thanks for the input , I installed the apk and file.xml and I have not noticed improvement in video quality. What I have noticed is that the videos take up a lot more storage space than before ...

Thanks for the feedback. I've not done much testing of it myself yet. I've had time to playback one 4K recording I took on my 4K TV vs. A couple of other ones I'd taken before the mod and the new one does look slightly more crisp. The two videos are in different conditions so it could be the lighting. I'll need to take some before and after shots of the same thing and see how it looks.
The 720 and 1080, I agree, I can't see much of a difference except slightly more dark "noise" and a larger file size. It could be a limitation of the hardware or something. Perhaps it tells it to capture more and it tries - but it just can't.
It definitely needs more testing and more feedback from anyone else who wants to try it would be greatly appreciated.

Could other things also be incorporated like some manual unlocked controls ? Or maybe ISO control in 23 MP too? Some of the features from the other camera based thread for the xperias ?

I'm pretty sure I saw something like that for an old xperia camera and there was an xposed module for the z2 that unlocked the 20mpx in certain modes so I assume these things are possible. I'm not a developer in any way though and have no idea how to do that to be honest.
I've learned some stuff so far messing about with this about how to decompile and look through the code but that sounds like a job for someone who knows what they are doing

I've had a quick look at that APK from over there and all I've really been able to see is the ISO names and values. I could change the values but as I don't really know what I'm doing I don't know where I'd begin to enable ISO control at 23mpx. There's nothing simple I can see like "change this to enable it" :laugh:
This is why devs get paid the big bucks and I'm definitely in over my head.
Maybe send off a PM to xswxm and ask him if he could mod the camera for you.

OK so after a lot more messing around it seems there is a bitrate point at which there is no longer an increase in notable quality of the video but the file sizes still get bigger as you keep increasing the bitrate. 54 mbps to my eye seems to be a good maximum for 1080p and I couldn't see any real increase of quality after 22mbps on 720p. 54 1080p might even be too high still. I'd be interested to know what other people see in terms of quality.

When i want to copy files with root explorer it gives me an error and siad failed to copy files, i try with es explorer and it says these files are read only system files, what can i do? I have z5 premium android 6 rooted

You need to mount the folder as read/write instead of read only or you can't make any changes inside it. Going by what you described you never tried to rename the files you were going to replace first which would give you the same error too and which I would advise you to do too
You'll be glad you didn't overwrite them if you want to change back at some point.

Just in case you never kept the old ones and want them back later :laugh:

### ONKYO MUSIC PLAYER MOD 3 V ###
GET THIS MODDED ONKYO PLAYER
ITS FRICKEN AWESOME WITH HUGE BASS
SEE POST 15
################@@#
1 l. I apologize for nor posting this a couple years ago.
i have been screwing with these mods and have somwthing that can totally change what these mods do for you.
i have tips for huge audio that begin even before your ausio mods are even installed.
But i am goin to give you a fat piece of the steak then come back and to the begining
######## edit 1
using these edited files on many different nods i have no need for an equalzer. infact most will destroy the sound these creat.
exept for equalizers at direct source. What i mean is when the app that plays the source file
For music i mostly use the Onkyo player. has an equalizer,upconvert and other cool stuff
For Movies i use a copy of Mxplayer that has a dts patch
Sonetimes i use The Vlc video player has a nice preamp and equalzer.
My experince has been eqalizers aplied down the line destroy The Artists Intentions.
I reco mend disabling all mods and eq to get the true value.
As i write this i have srs and beats files uploaded. turn off dolby maxx and viper4android If you have them Just to see what these do

Backup and prep
most people know about custom recoverys
but often we make edits or changes where the negative effects that dont show up untill after we have new data and stuff we dont want to lose.
Zipme by jrummy can help you greatly.
it can be directed to files and folders it can create a flashable signed replication that can often repair problems without full restore
exanple
flashable backups of soundeffects.conf,build.prop,launcher,framework,systemapps,etc can save you many hassles.
also another huge tip
my recovery twrp has a file manager
example
i have a copy of my build.prop in my system named build.prop.bak
say i made a build.prop edit but wasnt worried or forgot to backup
my edit bootlooped me
i boot to recovery mount system,go to filemanager delete or rename the build.prop then remove .bak from the copy ,reboot,Problem solved.
you cab use this for anything franework ,apps ,init.d
I mod everything so i do bootloop trying things but i can often fix problems without ever doin restore
Another valuable tool
an app nandroid backup manager
it can go into your Backups and extract files and data Even if your backup wont boot
example
Say you flashed a new kernel You forgot to do a backup
Oh **** you flashed a kernel for your other phone .
you are totally screwed
Go ahead make a backup even though it wont boot
once you get a rom installed or firmware flash
you can use the manager to easily get everything you want out of your backups
Prep
i am gonna say all phones have "govenors and Restricters
Most have badass hardware. But none of the software was ever written to get full potential of all high tec hardware
Often just few build.prop edits can make your phones sound much better.
This is different anongst phones but the concept is the same
i have a samsung tab 4 7 inch 4.4.2with marvel processors.No delopment at all for it. There is no api for bluetooth,Couldnt run an eq Well **** that sucks It so fricken quiet i couldnt here a thing even through bluetoot
.i forget exactly what i did but in build.prop was a line telling the system where calibration files are
something like gen cal.db tel/cal/gen_cal.db i forget exactlty
removed the cal files also removed cal applet from System/bin I think the was some crap on nv
well after that my phone wasnt limiting my audio
then while boppin around through my decompiled global.jar i stumbled across something like
playback_resampling=0
well i changed that to a 1
then 20 lines down i see
blahblah_allow srs_processing=0
hell ya i changed to 1
Holy Crap Wow was i surprised.
another common one is
framework res "maybe elsewhere"
blahblah_safe_mediasound=1
changing to 0 reduced phones software limits
If you have this You will see it if you use app like sqlEditor and look in data/data/android.provider/settings
safe_media 3
when disabled will show a 1
OFF TOPIC BUT VERY VALUBLE
amongst global.jar,framework.res or settings apk there is a line
device_provisioned=0 i forget the exact line
change to 1
often when modding or tweaking or just by accident that after a factory reset your phone starts acting Dumb
like home key doesnt work reboot menu isnt all there.
so you have to use sqleditor and correct devisioning in settings table and reboot
if you change this as i explained this will never happen to you

Srs
for those that know what they are doing.
uzip these. srsprocessing goes in system/etc/srs
the two truemedia files go in system/etc/soundimage
REBOOT
depending on your specific mod truemedia files may be in system/etc and not in a soundimage folder
these will add huge huge bass to your srs while using BLUETOOTH
Be careful some small speakers may tear or simply RUN AWAY
amTruemedia i have decreased compression and windows. Added gain and added huge place holders to bass mins
srs_processong decreased compression and window dropped freq to 55hz and added gain
you will need a min of 90 mb free in system
these took hours and hour to make as i dont have a computer so all was done from my phone. just to load a file in jota takes 5 minutes then another 5 to insert aditional lines
Anybody with a comouter can open these up and make these sounds four times increased than what i have
ps. on the srs_processing file i got tired and stopped editing. So the 55hz is more inxreased in the video aspect. But this is just the surface anybody can modify these.
Its possible for audio mod creators to package these in there mods already
also with addin huge boost at srs level its likely that some dolby and max will tone these down. Try turning them off in build prop to see. Such i have down. i shut max complely off except for dts ,also i have dolby off as well.
And you can make huge eq to these wirh edits turni on eq turn on all bands,add gain and add placeholders to band mins

beats
This is my next project, but maybe somebody here can play with it
there the beats files Extract and put to system/etc/tfa REBOOT
Some beats mods have more eq files than these
you can likely use these settings by makin copy and renaming

Dolby and Sony
these can give you huge sound if your audio mod uses it.
the folder is system/etc/sony_effect

beats
This is my next project, but maybe somebody here can play with it
there the beats files Extract and put to system/etc/tfa REBOOT
Some beats mods have more eq files than these
you can likely use these settings by makin copy and renaming
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think i'll try this... XD

One question: Why the file size of these are times 1000 the size of any srs configs i have known?

i am trying to make use of all the intelligenxe on these files.To be real about your question. Most audio mods you see are a ton of files put together All having big names."sony,etc" i have been able to use them for what i want.
i havent found any other way to get the sound i want.
The files are so big because sound has been added to them.So far the only way i have learned to do so is by increasing values and file size is the cost.
The srs files have Huge bass boom that is very clean if the system runs properly.
I want to spend alot of time to explain everything. I am homeles and do everything from a phone. I have a weird life and get side tracked often .
If people here knew what i have learned Audio mods would be changed forever.
i have a 49 dollar samsung light and a shark bluetooth speaker that sets the air on fire when i play music and videos.
i have mods and edits for alot of various mod packs.
Again i apologize for not giving you everything i know.
Hey i just noticed by removing the small srs lic files increases my output.
I will get two dolby files up here tonight, They are big files also. But if setup right will make your phone a movie theater

i am hoping someone will test this.
I have gotten this onkyo app to run its equalizer on 50 bands
on my little phone. it required a little data manipulation
Now trying to make it apart of the app
This is weird since Onkyo has alot of signature crapThe gains are already set to 12
install and turn eq on . then raise the eq bar up.
Honestly i have alot of system edits that i am unsure of how
much this does alone.its sounds fuc****in great on my phone
Edit
had to upload this in another post for some reason
Scroll down to get file

if you use Bsplayer
in its settings you can raise presmp to 500 percent
thats great when you files low in sound
Want even more?
in its data folder Shared prefences
these will give you even more
this is the preamp string bsplayer uses to tell its preamp what to do
the app only gets it to 500
i changed to 1000 Bam signifacant gain
<string name="papreamp">1000</string>

here it is
if this works correctly you will have a 50 band equalizer set at full. turn on eq and raise its bar
i am not sure whats gonna happen if you start adjustin individual bands. i may work on this more
if this doesnt work right i can give you my data files
Edit
i am uploading another copy that doesnt bother plist
If you try this
results are more valuable thank yous
i dont have anyone to test And my phones are so tweaked with audio crap i dont need more,But i want it if i can make it.

onkyo mod2
to make this more clear
the eq comes stock with 11 bands that are set to 0
you use the apps eq to modify
i rewrote the eq file with 50 bands and set gain to 12
so the app is running the file as written but isnt aware of what its doin
Originally i just the bands in its data folder which made it temporary. Tryin to get it a permanent mod
##
I think the way i did this the app applies band gains even with eq off
not sure
Let me know how this works for you

1 Anybody here want to work on an audio mod package
I especially need someone who is good at adding libraries to the sound conf also creating flashable scripts
After trying many audio mods i havent found 1 i am totally happy with..
2
i am using a copy of
_UNIVERSAL__HTKaudio_2016
basically its another decent audio mod
I have it to make my speaker blow smoke
i even get deep base like them cars drivin by.
i hsve s shark bluetooth speaker .the 15 watt one made of metal. its pretty heavy. Well i get it to hop around .
If you want to try sonething new I will take time to give you step by step instructions And all the modded files
to have badass audio on your phone
Nothing compares to it at all. The phones like Htc these files come stock on are weak.
Since theres nothing close .Its a little chore
i have done the most the time comsuning work
You will just need to flash the htk mod All the edited files i have and a little time to make edits and replace files
If you do You will ask yourself why this Sh** been around for years but never sounded like this

You have got to this
MY third rendition of Onkyo music player
Holy crap
This little bastard puts out alot of sound with tons of bass
Unzip and install.
if you already have a copy installed Delete data after updating
PLEASE POST ANY RESULTS YOU HAVE
tThanks

50 Band--unbearable screech. What's that? Why are all the Mod.O.HF.players same size after your modifications? Anyway, fyi, sound in a little better without FeaturedEQ.

[Mod] Audio-"Unleashed1" dolby sony

Yes,i am going to give you an audio mod for your phone,but first some information usefull for everyone.
What i have is not a " release of my work" so much as just sharing what i am using know, as i change and tweak on a daily basis. Its so very unique and powerful i want to share it. I am not finished but thats ok. a few changes then i am gonna do something different.
Its called Unleashed because i have released the true power . its unleashed 1 because i have a plan that will be even more powerfull, i will share when its done.
most mods you will get seem to me be as many effects and stuff crammed into a package.
if you study them, nothing is utilized and often working against each other.
like a bunch of engines set at slightly above idle.
I can install almost any mod package found on this site and in minutes make it more powewrfull than imagined.
2 points right here
srs is tiny in size but is a HUGE POWERFUL bit of software
i can make a nice full mod using nothing but srs. wont have all the effects but huge quality sound.'1to3 l;ibs and 1 cfg file3'
problem, most srs files arent configuered to do much,infact some may conflict. like setting minus gains where others are trying to add gain
If you develop and release mods, imay be able to help you make your stuff more powerful and unique.
if you have mods installed i can help you tune it to get the sound you want.
So i am going to explain what i have as of right know.
i live outside basically and cant set up my laptop or use net alot so forgive me if dont get everything at once
infact for me to give you all what i have may take awhile so if this interests you i advise to check back regurlarly
To think as i do
E#ven the most baddass mod you can get made by someone doin it for years.
Look at it as an "Audio BusyBox"
They are audio applets that can be configured to do what you want
ok what i have is a couple mods that most mod guys throw into there packages to get more labels or icons , but really there not configuered and you wouldnt even notice if they werent even there.
so i have dolby atmost 1.4.1 as the core. yeah everybody has that.
i changed it to run at 60 bands giving you a very smooth sound that may be worthy of you badass onkyo integra thx50000zcr
now to enhance the lowend i have dolby digital plus set to run 20` band eq starting at 40hz up to 500hz
this is the hardest to reproduce `Your twin 12inch velodynes might apreciate this tiny spacing in frequency sampling.
next i have xloud at srength 6
then comes clearaudio configuered with a bit of gain at the lowend. this adds bass and Clarity
thats basica.lly it theres qcbass and i used the beats lib and sony pre and post effects
honestlyi am still learning as i go so maybe not perfect but i learned alot in making this, maybe different proxys can be better, but i dont really know how to get uuid and proper proxy use, i may have mistakes but have got enough right to make great sound almost theatre like on my bluetooth hdmx chill. this little speaker was crap when i bought, with this mod it somehow sounds great.
if this doesnt get quite what you want you can actually drop a few files on your computer and make the sound you want.
even if you dont use what i have you can take files from almost any mods you have now and modify them to your needs.
So i have no clue how to make flashable update scripts like most mods you get, so i am gonna use zipme.apk by jrummy to make a flashable package, you will need to add a few lines to your` build prop.
zipme is sweet app you can make flashaple pack of build.prop audio effects files, framework, apks, almost anything.
so my eyes are getting sore and tired and i need to stretch ,i am sitting outside a closed cofee shop using there electricity.and my leg is falling asleep and throbbing
i am gonna make a list of all the files i need to zipme and the few build.prop lines you need. i will have these all for you when i come back, if not tonight for sure in the morning,
oh before i go,You will need alot of system room to use this, i will add it all up but at least 200meg prolly abit more
Back now, look its fricken freezin now here, so about to pack up and go to my sorta spot to sleep, but i have a feww more notes for you
t6he two dolby mods have apps, the apps write your settings to there data folders, the ui apps read the settings from the service apps folders, the problem is that the preset gains are so big that it cant handle so the data files are empty this causes the ui apps to not function,.therefore neither has an ui, also for both the preset gains are to large that activating the leveler actually reduces the gain, untill i learnb java and smal;i to be able to modify the apps i cannot do anything about, i deactivated the optimize and tuning features also because this will reduce my presets, virtualizer is deactivated, also to preseve settings, these two dolby are basically equalizers only but set at huge gain in comparisuion to what the ui apps are able to do, plus even if the ui operated correctly the ui app isnt configuered for 60 bands so would oprate right,agauin i could probably correct all this with knowledge of java and ability to interpret smali files.
so there is no real time equalizer as of now, but i will teach you easily to make files to change settings t5hat just need reboot
also in order to make this more universal i removed somethings that came with my phone like mysound and soundalive, as i have no clue what to include to make work on your phone, plus i doubt it really matters.
also in am going to try to incl;ude extra audioeffects.confs i have, by simpl;y vreplacing the audioeffects conf you can ru8nj only the 60band eq, 60band with xloud, 60band with xloud and cleraraudio various combi8nations to get what you want,
i am tired and typing reall bad, gona take off, i will have your mod to play with tomorrow after i wake up and get some coffee and find some wifi, plus i may try to find the virtualizer effect i was trying yesterday. i added 3 at once and didnt like it, but theres one that goes well this.
over n out
#
back now
almost ready adjusted a few things this is pulled from my tab that i used to create it. tab4 7inch t237p 4.4.2
assume it will work on most phones but i cant guaranty anything
assume we all know about backups
if you use zipme.apk to backup system/lib/soundfx folder and audio_effects.conf you will be able to flash those easily be back to normal .
if you have any srs folders in system/etc or system/data remame them somehow like adding an "A" to the beginning of the folder. that way to stop any conflicts with what i have for you.
i recommend removing all existing mods eq and soundfx and dsp managers. but thats up to you.
So the file is going to be a zip file
unzip it Will be a text file you need to add to build prop for xloud and clear audio.
the other will be the flashable zip that will add the 2 dolby service apps to system/app the ds.default xmls to system and system/etc the xloud and ckearaudio stuff as system/etc/sound/effects 5hen srs file to system/etc/soundimage ,replace your audio_effects.conf and add libs to your system/lib/soundfx folder
i think thats it . I will have more like a 40 band flat cfg and others to help contour your new mod to acamadate your needs. But first i got the main pack up before it rains.
which i think its gonna . Be
#i recomend a dalvic and cache wipe
THERE WILL BE NO MISTAKE OR DOUBTS HERE YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO TELL IF IT WORKS IMEDIATLY WHEN YOU START A MOVIE OR MUSIC.
Please post results sovi know i packaged it correctly.
#in system/etc/dolby/presets i included a 40 band eq preset for you . because of 20 less bands there was room for each band to have higher gain
the loaded cfg is 60 band what i call 350 flat the zip is a 500 flat at 40 bands . i zipped it to save room incase you are low in system space. unzip to sdcard if you want.
i have a couple more like a 30 band and various gains i can dig up
Or
if you are wanting just ask, i will show you how to make your own,same with srs and clearaudio
i use zipme to make these flashable. you can flash one pack and change all these in 1 minute. Say you have presets for your bluetooth carkit,another set if cfgs f9r your home stereo,another for your portable bluetooth. Or anything else. the files are pretty easy to make and use.
also once you have a collection you can download almost any mod you find,paste or flash your files and Bam, your mod is enhqnced 20 fold in minutes.
AS son i get a chance i will add adjust clearaudio and change the whole way Srs runs. Those will be simple changes on your end, copy paste or just flash. Both will be nice upgrades. Also i am trying to learn more about audio_effects.conf
i maybe able to get more out of this with more knowledge of proxy uuid and effects
If you know about this maybe take alook at what i have done. iam trying things i havent seen anywhere else. so its hit and miss.
