I am running Lithium as my rom, which has beats audio installed. This has caused some problems for me, as it lowers audio quality when using poweramp. If you disagree, keep it to yourself and don't tell me I am wrong in this thread. Wow, that just sounded a lot meaner than it was meant to. Anyways, is there any way to remove it completely?

I was looking at that at one time... and I started writing down all of the files that get installed with the mod... but then I got to the /system/etc/ folder and gave up...
If you're feeling motivated, check out the attached zip for everything it installs, and then you could attempt to remove those files... by your method of choice.
NOTE: NO ONE SHOULD ATTEMPT TO FLASH THE ATTACHMENT - sorry for yelling, but it's not a flashable zip, just the system folder from the BeatsAudiob0314.zip for reference...
You should probably cross-reference and take the proper files from a stock ROM you have lying around though, because a few of the files are replaced, like /system/etc/media_profiles.xml and /lib/libreverbwrapper.so & libvisualizer.so (and possibly others?)... In fact, if you do manage to do all of that it would definitely be worth making a "remove beats audio" script/zip
Well, I removed it from the rom after setting it up with rom kitchen. This has worked before, but now it will not flash, I get an error in CWM that says something about status 0 and it aborts the zip install I think that has something to do with the update binary. anyone have any ideas?

Yea, that sounds like an updater-script or update-binary file issue... You could try borrowing the META-INF folder from a different flashable rom...
Or maybe you could remove the necessary files through adb in recovery (or make a script if you can - that's beyond me) and make a smaller update.zip with the files you need to replace. I have much better luck making small flashable zips as opposed to full roms. Either way, good luck! And keep us posted..

...and a blank line at the bottom of the script..
Another thought... don't know how well it would work but - you could possibly make a cwm backup, get it on to your comp, open the system.ext3.tar with 7-zip, and do all of your deleting/replacing through 7-zip... then close her up, move it back to your sdcard and restore as normal (or restore system only).. obviously not touching the name or md5 sum..
again, never tried anything like that, but it sounds possible (in my head at least)...

well all I need to do is replace and delete the right files, I am almost done with a flashable zip to just do that. do you know if the files that were listed as needing to be replaced instead of deleted (which is true) will work on all devices?

That's probably the best you can do.. if it boots, no FC's, audio still works, files gone, then you're probably good to go. I would offer to test it but I got no beats mod installed right now... Did you successfully remove it on yours?

not yet, there are a ton of files and I have to manually type out all the file names into the zip updater file, so it is taking forever, I'm getting close though. I will put it up in an hour or so, assuming it works.
What a pain in the arse. I installed beats, to my dismay, it hurt sound quality. The voodoo sound mod is much better. If you made a backup, I didn't, prior to install you are in good shape otherwise, full wipe and reinstall rom. It would be great if someone made an uninstall zip. Good luck!

my uninstall zip will be up in less than an hour, assuming I am not doing it completely wrong! It should work on the Atrix 2, but some files get replaced, not deleted. I think this should be fine, cross platform but you know the drill, not my problem if it does something bad and all that stuff.

Well, people keep posting in this thread so I figured I would do a very very large update. I know its been 7 months, and for that I apologize, been very busy and this wasn't a priority.
Now, its one version of Pushboot for everyone. Load it up, follow the directions and you should be set.
Remember to start you need:
-HTC Drivers installed
-A working bootanimation.zip
-An mp3 file if you want boot sound
-Your phone plugged in to the usb port (lol)
-Only ONE .zip and/or .mp3 in the folder containing pushboot
Other than that, I included everything needed to make this work.
Any issues let me know and I can try to help you out!
And leave feedback and if you like this, press the thanks button on this post =D

I changed PushBoot so everything needed is included.
Basically, upzip, put your zip file (and if you want an mp3 file) into the folder
plug in your phone
open pushboot.bat
follow the prompts
(make sure that when the phone goes into recovery that you wait till it connects to your pc before continuing)
and you should have a custom boot animation and boot sound!
Any problems, let me know
I also included the dancing android bootscreen and the nexus one bootscreen.

i'm fully rooted and this method is not working for me. it doesn't load the sound or the boot animation.
Fixed for full root

well first of all I JUST reuplaoded a new zip, so get that (forgot to hide all the random code)
also, I assume you put an mp3 in the folder right?
and to reboot you have to choose reboot in your recovery on the phone

Re: Easy way to change your bootscreen *updated for fullroot!*
On your computer in the same folder as pushboot.bat is where the bootanimation.zip and SPC_animation_final.mp3 has to be.

would you mind making a zip for your red theme to work on ef02 instead?
Maybe I'm missing something. A su that works for all apps... for gingerbread...What?
Noting the snippets from your updater-script (you might want to edit this in the future)
Code:
ui_print("Superuser 2.3.4 for Eclair/FroYo");
ui_print("Written by: ChainsDD");
su really hasn't changed much from eclair-gingerbread.. it's nearly the same binary just patched for a few different file system here and there.
Leaves me to ask again, working su? They all work.
If you want to link to anything, don't just link to an arbitrary updated superuser.
There's a huge problem with this as super user is signed by a public key that everyone has access too. Without having a hardcoded pid for the specific service, anyone on the market or any "developer" can grab said key, sign another malicious utility with it and brick nearly every android device.
But that's irrelevant as I don't even see you getting that far. I'm just confused by this post as it has 1) no detail 2) holds no merit.
actually to be fair its chain's from his post.. i snagged it and renamed it su.zip for the nexus s 4g one click. when i was testing rroting ef02 i uploaded just the zip.. its posted in that thread.. so decad3nce please forgive me.. ill try to kang better next time ;P
you guys dont understand, the old su.zip didnt have sh
sh? you mean that file thats on android to begin with? thats how oh.. EVERYTHING runs? trust me ive seen the effects of a phone without sh... there is no reason to add it in... unless its bash sh you're nicely replacing stock sh for everyone?

I didn't want to clutter up the dev thread with these questions, but I've never used any CM build on any phone.
I unzipped Bryan's CM7 build to see what was inside and noticed it didn't seem to have a launcher and didn't seem to have any market app. Ok so does that mean you have to pre install Google apps from the SDcard to be able to access the market?
In reading the instructions, it seems like Bryan's CM7 build uses the same kernel as his regular beta kernel thread but that can't be right, can it, with the discussion on the thread....
I noticed that the Google apps were all modified for CM7, so does that mean that ordinary apps won't work unless they're modified?
Can I still use the TW4 launcher on CM7? Used to it.
The business about USB storage not working in Android. I assume that means you can't put anything on the SDcard using the USB cable after Android has booted up so that you have to push everything on there with ADB, is that it, in recovery mode?
1. It does contain a launcher; Its called ADW Launcher.
2. Yes, you would need to flash the google apps. I use this one
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
and this one http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip​
3. You flash the gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip file then the gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip google talk with video chat support.
4. Its a different kernel. CM7 is using the MTD version. While regular stock roms use BML.
5. I believe you can use the google apps on those files on any rom. But most roms already bring them integrated.
6. Apps developed for use on the Galaxy S phones like TWLauncher et al will not work as they hook onto some samsung specific programming.
7. As mentioned in 6, you cannot use TWLauncher on cm7.
8. Yes you would have to push everything through ADB in the meantime. Pushing/puling through adb does not require rebooting to recovery though.
Can someone make a video on how to install the rom?
Just follow the written instructions on the thread and you'll be fine

Honestly they confuse the crap outta me. A video would dumb it down for me and im sure a few others.
IDK how the heck I made my efs backup.
But if anyhow, you manage to make some sort of a tar file with your efs files, you should be fine.
After that,
do the erase_image
and mount /efs
and cd /efs
and tar xf anybackupname.tar
you will install. That is if you get your.

My suggestion is to wait until the install procedure is easier.
In the CM7 OP, Bryan said (twice) to re-read OP after updates.
Making a video will give you proper instructions for this build, but if Bryan updates the install procedure users following the video are going to have a mixed bag of results, and possible bricks.

I have a question as well. Yes, I know that this isnt exactly high priority, but I'm wondering if later there will be a build with Wifi calling. I was trying to install it myself, but it kept force closing, and I don't wanna try anything that'll mess up my phone any worse than I have before.
Wifi calling is basically a must for me since I basically live in Smallville, KS. I get little to no service here, and without it, it usually takes forever to get anything. And yes, I've tried every modem I could, KG4 works best, since I can sometimes get one bar.
I'm trying to complain or anything, and I thank Team Acid for bringing us CM7.

Are you on windows? If so open command promt. Cd into the heimdall suite directory. Put your phone in DL mode and connect to usb. From command type "heimdall detect". Should say device detected. Then just put the boot.img in the same directory and follow the OP.

That's just Samsung-specific stuff like TouchWiz that require Samsung's modified frameworks and extra libraries.
Just use FB's install guide instead. I was going to wait until it was installable through CWM, but this is essentially the same thing with a few extra steps.
I just got my HTC One S via T-Mobile and I was curious to see if Carrier IQ was installed. If so, are there any measures I can take to disable/remove it while I await the development of some Custom ROMs? Ever since I read the article on Carrier IQ, I feel really uncomfortable using a stock ROM so though I've had my phone for a few days, I've yet to do anything except root it.
Yes carrier IQ is there as an option. You can either choose to allow T-Mobile to have the info or not. You should see the agreement accepting or denying the service as you set up your device.

ICS has this option built in, at least in the EU ROMs of the HOS it is available. You can encrypt the system/data area or everything (sys/data and the sd storage partition).
However, just like TC this will not help you with any malware that is already on the system at the point of encryption. And unlike TC you can't just "decrypt" and retain the data. Removing the encryption means going back to total factory reset and a full wipe of data.

Thanks for reminding me about this. After looking into it the damn thing is installed on the phone =(. It's installed as a rootkit though so you can't see it in titanium backup to remove it.
It exists in /data/data/com.carrieriq.tmobile and also /system/lib something something. It's late here so forgive my lack of effort.
my attempts failed at removing it. It keeps rebuilding itself in data/data even after I delete it but not in /system/lib.
Although a pretty awesome thing is that after deleting **** it no longer has that red text warning about my boot loader being unlocked when my phone boots up.

Ok, looks like it's removed completely. Again it's late so I'll give a better answer tomorrow. There was some entry for it in TB the icon for it is pink and looks like a cog.

What u deleted to get rid of the this is for development blabla stuff??
figured that out first day glad some one else posted how to it saves me from having to write a tutorial
Actually i couldn't really think of a possible explanation why the red warning text on the first splash is generated by any file within the android system as it is loaded before any android component. the first splash has its own dedicated area on the and from what i know from the HD2 it can only be altered by a flasher that is capable to write to that adress range. That again is only possible if security is disabled (S-OFF).
If this theory is wrong please correct me but i am fairly sure the red warning cannot be undone by removing carrier IQ related files.
So what exactly does this record/report?
Well google pointed me at A LOT of info about this, I had no idea about it till now. Was surprised to see how many people have open suites going on with the company. I used the voodoo scanner and it's on my phone but it says it's not running. I am going to rip it out anyway, can't trust companies these days.
Well followed the steps and it's down to 170 now.
Lol

I'm fairly new to the xda community... So I'm hoping this works for others like it worked for me. I tried about 20 different modded phone apks that were supposedly designed to work for 160dpi setting on AOKP and CM9 roms and I was just about to give up when I stumbled across one that actually works!!! Directions are pretty simple...
1. Download phone.apk file from below
2. move to root of sd card
3. In root explorer (or any file browser with root access) go to /system/app and rename original phone.apk to phone.apk.bak
4. Copy and paste new phone.apk in /system/app
5. Reboot phone and enjoy
No need to change app permissions to -rw-r--r--
UPDATE!!!! For those of you that prefer a flashable zip, Mr. Apocalypse was kind enough to upload one in post #12 of this thread
If you run into any problems let me know and I'll try to help with troubleshooting.
Wat exactly does it do?

It replaces the stock phone app... The stock phone app will crash on any LCD density below 200 dpi. This modded phone app will run on the lower densities so you can use the 160 dpi setting and still be able to make/receive phone calls without a FC error.

It's nothing major... Just a fix for a force close error when using the phone app on different LCD densities. A lot of ppl like the look of 160 dpi and 128 dpi (tablet mode) but you lose call functionality as a consequence... This fixes that issue.
Also... If you decide to return the phone to stock LCD density there's no need to revert back to the old phone apk... This one will work in all densities from 128-240 dpi. (I haven't tried anything larger than 240 yet... IDK why anyone would though )
Ah, okay got it..

thankyou so much! fixed my issue wondered why it kept crashing when it was lower than 200 lol
I'll try it out. That FC pop up gets annoyings as stopping and clearing data after every reboot gets annoying lol.
Does this permanently replace the stock phone apk?
I can't get anything to work. Not the rename, not the copy and past. Nothing.

Make sure the /system folder is mounted as read/write before you do this... If your file explorer app doesn't have the option to give you root access you can mount /system by using terminal emulator.
Use the following commands:
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
[TROLL]You know, a flashable would really help [/TROLL]
Lol, jk, attached is a flashable, uses the same Phone.apk in the OP for those who's having trouble with the push process.
I personally haven't tested it, but it should help with those who are.
Thanks I'll give that a go. Can I flash this directly to the appropriate file or do I need to move it after flashing?

Flash it and it will replace whatever Phone.apk you have with the one in the OP.

Thanks for that! Yea I'm not quite skilled with these things as of yet... Hopefully I'll get there soon though.
The file flash fine, but I'm still experiencing a problem. Fortunately, I think I've narrowed down the problem to Wfi Calling. I started a new thread in search for an answer. Eith way, thanks for the effort guys!
Does this fix the issue where the slider to answer the call is off the screen?

No, unfortunately not.
I just ran in this issue, looking for a fix right now.

Didn't find any working package so I started browsing the Android source.
I think I found the root of this problem:
https://github.com/AOKP/packages_apps_Phone/blob/ics/res/layout/incall_touch_ui.xml#L52
Code:
<!--
(1) incomingCallWidget: the UI displayed while an incoming call is ringing.
See InCallTouchUi.showIncomingCallWidget().
Layout notes:
- Use an opaque black background since we need to cover up
a bit of the bottom of the contact photo
- The verticalOffset value gets us a little extra space above
the topmost "Respond by SMS" icon
- [b]The negative layout_marginBottom shifts us slightly downward;
we're already aligned with the bottom of the screen, but we
don't have an icon in the downward direction so the whole
bottom area of this widget is just wasted space.[/b]
-->
<com.android.internal.widget.multiwaveview.MultiWaveView
android:id="@+id/incomingCallWidget"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
[b]android:layout_marginBottom="-46dp"[/b]
android:background="@android:color/black"
android:visibility="gone"
I guess this -46dp is too much and needs to be lowered a bit.
Downloading AOKP source right now and trying to rebuild the Phone.apk
