Just wanted to know if there was some way in changing the default sound enhancer of the stock music player to 'No effects'. It always sets itself to 'SRS enhancement'- on startup, and even if I just selected 'no effects'- it reverts back to SRS automatically.
And this is just in regard to the stock player- I'm not a big fan of PowerAMP or Winamp. It's just that IMHO, I feel that the 'no effects' option delivers the best quality without much disruption. 'Beats' feel good as well- but only at times.
Thanks in advance,
Tony
Just checked on mine as I usually use Poweramp. Switched it to no effects and then played a few songs. Restarted the phone and then went to the music player again and the no effects is still selected. So I'm not sure why your one is overriding the setting and reverting back to SRS.

Seriously? Is it just me or is anyone else having this issue? Just for info I'm running on ELEGANCIA Rom v1.3 and on stock kernel. I'm not really sure but I think I had the same issue when I was on Leedroid. Had the bug from the very start- so it shouldn't be an error in any custom apps. And I did a superwipe before flashing- so rules out errors there as well.
Like I mentioned earlier, it never stays on 'no effects'. It's always on SRS no matter what. The beats option works fine though..
If it helps I'm running ARHD 4.1.8 with the no-sense script. Have only just flashed back to this as was running the Miui rom but found the screens too awkward to organise. In saying that tho - you may find it its the Beats add on that is causing the effects.
Bump. Can I confirm if anyone else on Sense 3.5 w/ Beats add on is facing this?

It's a problem with beats mods up to a point and me and a couple of others have solved it and the best way to get rid of it is to flash my Beats Audio XE mod in the themes and apps section and it will be solved

Thanks mate, the beats mod from your thread seemed to solve the issue. Can select 'No effects' now and it sticks to it. However- it does revert back to SRS after a reboot- not an issue though, but is this set by default?
I have a similar issue with a stock sensation - however it always starts the player on no effects, rather than one of the equalizer settings it was left on previously. Maybe we should swap phones?

No, maybe a bad flash coz I don't have this problem, although maybe that's coz mine is permanently set on Beats Audio mode, I shall look into this though as I consider it a bug

first Thread here, please be kind.
first of all, awesome website, awesome developers, and awesome ARHD roms.
i flashed my sensation with ARHD sensation XE rom and it has been nothing but awsome so far. however, as a audiophile myself, i cannot help but noticed something changed in the audio department.
with the default HTC audio player, the music became almost unlistenable without Beats enabled. the overwhelming amount of bass pretty much ruins everything. I don't recall this was the case before flashing the ARHD rom. and when i use 3rd party player (like Winamp) with no EQ change, the music is on par with using HTC audio player with Beats turned on.
so here is my theory:
1. HTC is really play dirty here by purposely making the musics sounds so bad that user has to enable the Beats audio on models that support Beats audio.
2. Sensation is not compatible with Senstion XE rom?
is this an isolated case? or are you guys all experiencing it?
Thanks
Never had that, flash again maybe?

i think i flashed a number of times and i have noticed this every time.
could you do test on your phone?
listen to a music file with HTC music player with beats off, and beast on.
and listen to the same file with a 3rd party player with flat eq setting.
since 3rd party player cannot trigger beats audio, it should sound just like HTC player with Beats disabled.
my problem is it sounded like HTC player with beats enabled, while the HTC player with beats disabled sounds like carp (granted my head phone cost as much as sensation itself so i might hear a bit more, but the difference should be very significant to spot with just regular earphones)
For ICS, HTC have modified the Beats algorithm (imho)
So now, beats enabled is as the player should be,
Beats disabled, has HTC crippling the sound to make Beats sound better than it is
I think.....
A very nice posting from my ARHD XE
Sorry but.... do you guys use piracy OLD version of power amp? New version of it has Beats Audio in EQ. Better just buy Power Amp and get an update with Beats Audio in EQ And on topic, I don`t have this issue. Maybe it`s related on headphones, as I`m using headphones from SE Xperia Arc S, but with some others headphones sound is really bad.
I don't use Beats anymore as it sucks out my battery.
Google Music has pretty nice sound, don't need more than that.
I've found that using dsp manager as well as beats audio gives the best sound.

For those who don't like the beats working in their device instead of DSP Manager then you can flash the file below.
Warning you will lose beats, and the following libs will no longer function ##libbeatbas.so, ###libsrsfx.so
Note: It does not matter what kernel you use eg. bricked or anthrax as the file related only to the ROM
WHATS WORKING:
Dynamic Range compression
EXTREME BASS Settings - prepare to be blown away
Equalizer
Virtual ROOM
Requirements:
0. SENSE 4 ROM and AOSP ROMS, SENSE3.6(theres workaround just keep reading below)
1. Google Play Music - included in zips - Comptable in the HTC lockscreen player
2. DSP Manager - included in zips
3. Musicfx comes in goole music - remove this as it will override settings in DSP
4. High end Headphones with deep bass - Frequency response 6-22k khz or must be closer range fail to do so will have a worse effect ordinary headphones cannot handle extreme bass. eg sennheiser mxl60 works better in audio beats.
Now try with your originale beats headphones comes in the package and you will feel the difference.
NO EFFECT ON SENSE4 Music player
NOT COMPATIBLE ON SENSE 3.6
the audio_effects.conf will f### up the ext.jar, widget.jar, then you will wrestle with FC on HTC music, and HTC video otherwise you dont need them then you can use this, try AOSP player with shinzlon theme and remove them instead
TRICKING THE BEATS notification to appear while playing google music
played the htc music player until the beats notification appeared then closed it
and played google player then the beats notification still remains
tested on
ROM: ORDROID 2.0.5
Device: HTC sensation XE
XE beats headphones come in package
Sennheiser hd 201
If you dont like just flashed the returntobeats.zip, also if you tried to flashed this in sense3.6 or AOSP roms
Credits goes to kristofpetho for working libcyanogen.so on AOSP roms, he might retired but his legacy moves on
Thanks a lot
But I can't download, it says file damaged, maybe because the space between "no" and "beats" try to remove it please, thx

Yes it will work but the rest of lib like beats and srs will not work it will exclusively activate only libcyonogen.so. also i will doubt the revert to beats will be similar to that ROM just back up your audio_effects.conf in system/etc/audio_effects.conf if anything goes wrong
Can both beats and eq work together??? I think I am using them both in my old HTC desire...

i get bootloop on SenseLite v4.0
and now restoring the system
works with venom 1.3.5 ? anyone pls confirm it..
I'm not sure why, but the only setting I now have under Sound Enhancer is just turning Beats on or off. This happened sometime after I updated to the new firmware. I'm not rooted. Completely stock, just using the Apex launcher. Anyone know what could have caused this and how to get the settings back without a factory reset?
Thanks!
Pretty sure this was HTC doing, don't have them on custom roms either.

I wonder how someone would go about re-intergrating the old sound enhancer settings. I loved beats ur beats setting. That got LOUD and made my system pound hard!!!

You just got lucky..yeah..that is the 'new menu' in the new base/firmware update..I have used InsertCoin with the new base, and the sound enhancer menus are just like that..no need to worry..
Before the latest JellyBean HyDRO update I had Beats Audio installed however after this update, I have not seen it in action. The first time i installed it, it ran in the notification bar, however now, I wonder if its even in action. I also use the program, Volume+ which seems to take over Musix FX and give me FC with the Apollo Player. I also tinker with Poweramp.
Has anyone tried the AwesomeBeats Version 3 (only for CM9 i believe...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732763) That seemed to work pretty well.
Basically im in need of some audio gurus who can get the best audio experience with thie TF300T. ANy ideas or advice to would be really appreciated.
Yes. I'm using awesome beats v3 on JB Hydro. Working well and all.
Give it a go.. just back up. :thumbup:

A quick glance in the market after Searching "Beats Audio" I found [Root] Beats Audio. It is compatible whether ot nor it works I could not tell you since I don't have it installed. Just might now though...
i just installed the root version and its ok but not as good as on my htc sensation xe, and im using the beats audio ear phones but if you pair it with volume + then your getting there if you tweak the eq on volume +

hey strapped, in your supreme sense rom i can enable the sony xloud audio in the miktweaks app... is this the same as beats audio? right under this option it shows beats boost, but its gray'd out, so i wasn't sure if it was redundant. also, dps manager seem to always force close on me when i tried playing music thru my headphones so i got rid of it, is that supposed to happen?
i also noticed in system/app there is htcmusicenhancer.apk and audioeffectservice.apk, can you shed any light on what these are related to and what would happen if i removed them? thanks man! always appreciate your help!

In SS their is a mixture of beats and xloud. Its grayed out because beats really isn't compatible with Sense 2.1 or whatever. But if you remove the apks it would most likely just quiet the sounds down. I gotta merge all my files over to my new os today so ill look at them. I'm not one to remember things off top hand till I look at all the files
