[Q] Beats Audio and bad links - HTC Sensation

I just dled the old ARHD 3.6.13, I had looked at getting InsertCoin but the DL link was bad. Now I have 3.6.13 but I'm looking at getting ARHD 4.1.13. I want beats so I was trying to find the DL and all the links I came across were bad. Is something going on I don't know about? Anybody have the link for the improved beats audio?
Another question. The larger MMS mod says you must have CWM, I have 4EXT, can I not flash with 4EXT? If not, how can I flash mods that say CWM using 4EXT?
Thanks

4EXT will work fine

Maybe a tad off topic, but poweramp player now has beats support since yesterday, if you keep the bass and treble at 50%, disable the EQ and enable the tone and limit, and enable the beats button, it sounds exactly like the stock player with beats enabled. Only with poweramp you can then customise this sound if you really must have that additional bass or treble.

beats audio on sensation rom

im am not fully understanding the whole beats audio thing with the new revolution 3.6.x rom.does this actually load software in the phone that makes the phone have this actual feature or is it just there as something to show off to people.im just not understanding it because i thought that one would have to have all other types of internal equipment to add an audio system to a phone.
Well I think its some fancy set of equalizer maybe alithrograms that the music runs through (software side)
I assume on the sensation XE it has the beats amp built into the phone
So really yes you do have beats but only the software side of things
If that's the case you could pretty much get the effects using DSp manager with something like poweramp and vet close if not better sound
Hope this was helpful, I'm going to bed now lol

No.

its basically a software thats included on a rom. if you were to flash any of the roms without beats onto the xe, you would lose beats. this is basically a scheme that htc came up with to promote beats audio. all in all, xe is only a sensation clocked to 1.5 which is what the regular sensation is supposed to be on, and a bigger battery with more red accents
Sensation XE does not have ANY DIFFERENCE from the orignal Sensation ( unless you count cosmetic differences. ) Beats is only software side. Dont fret it.

[Q] Dre beats media player on sensation

I have a sensation and I was looking to upgrade my media player tobthe dre beats branded player. Is there a way to do it? Or would my best bet be to just wait for the ics update since ics introduces music equalizer into the os?
Sadly the sensation won't get beats audio MOD, as far as I have heard. But you can install a custom rom, which includes that MOD. But to be honest it isn't that good.
Is the dre beats app just like an equalizer on roids?

No, Beats audio mod is an addon which is featured in the current HTC phones, the sensation is the one without it. But you could flash a ROM, which includes it. But I wouldn't recommend that, as it isn't worth taking a risk bricking your device, for something stupid as that.
Oh ok I have yet to root my sensation because I know HTC is building a stable ics update. So basically it'll be better to just wait for ics and use the equalizer built into the os?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yeah, that is one way to say it
And one more question for you, and im out of your hair. I currently have a rooted evo I use it to listen to my music. Its rooted with cyanogenmod and I use a good pair of skullcandy headphones i keep bass boost enabled is that pretty much the same outcome to dre beats? I mean I understand dre beats are clearer but in terms of volume and bass?

Beats audio in ARHD rom?

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?

yes... I also facing same issue when listen to music using poweramp. But as far as I know beats function only work with stock music player.

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.

Beats audio?

Hey guys, I see that a lot of ROMs have beats audio ported. On the HTC Sensation, would the Beats Audio port be equivalent to a HTC One S in terms of sound quality? And what exactly does the Beats Audio mod do to the sound?
Thanks

Just applies an equilizer preset.
Remember that on the xe original 3.6 stock Rom, if you don't plug in headphones with a Mic you get the bass boost preset - that or beats. If you want pure sound without any effects for.your good headphones, perhaps you should try either a sense 4 rom or a pure ics one, or not using HTC built.in music player

Sense 4.0 (ordroid) now sounds different, for the worse and j believe it is being worked on. Otherwise you can always try android revolution hd

No its not supported I dont think. However, beats audio is just an EQ profile so why dont you download something like PowerAMP from play store and configure it to a beats sound or maybe a more pleasing sound to your ears
You find beats audio only With sense 3 and up!

I think CM9's DSP manager is powerful than Beats

Second that. DSP Manager wipes the floor with Beats.
PowerAMP does a pretty good job too. Why not try out the free trial.

I've tried CM10 and I flashed the AwesomeBeats tweak alongside the ROM... The tweak installs an app with Beats profiles and an built in EQ you can modify. After using some time tweaking with the EQ and Bass Boost, I ended up with beautiful sound, so if you want Beats Audio and a powerfull EQ, go for that mod!

Allright, dsp manager is the best for headset volume, but Beats is not good. Bassmodd v.18 is working very vell but dsp manager doesnt support this programme.

Only reason IMHO to really want beats audio mod in a aosp rom to begin with is IF U USE BEATS HEADPHONES alongside. I'm guessing 99% of the people that want beats don't utilize the technology it was intended for.

Are you sure that it is only EQ profile. I thought it has something to do with hardware too. I have tried 2 phones(sensation&XE) with the same headphones, way different. by the way normal sensation used a custom rom beats EQ

Also for the general topic as an EQ profile jellybam rom has Amazing beats app in it probably it can be found as an apk
