HTC Sensation Audiophile ROM - HTC Sensation

I am wonder is there any audiophile oriented ROM for Sensation XE BeatsAudio ?
The most decent ROMS were CM7 ports,but since it dissapears,there is no any ROM audio oriented. Especially for persons with hearing dissfunction as I am myself who needs louder volume output.
I have tried all modds and variations and even ultimate producted Pink Floyd sounds "boxy" bad on ICS based ROMs..
Also Volume+ or any loudness app does not work as good as it works on CM7.
I tried out almost all ROMS avaluable here, and nothing found. Does it really seems that I have to go back to oldschool CM7.
I forgot to mention that I do use headphones model Sennheiser HD800.

Virtuous rom whit the play music app i can tell you it sounds freaking good ! I am no audiophile (not yet) but sounds feels good

What are you using for a DAC and headphone amp as Sensation DAC as I can't imagine the Sensation driving those cans very well.

If you are an audiophile why don't you buy an app for this purpose?
I use PowerAmp Pro and it really fulfill my needs. Also, sounds is not really related with rom but more with kernel, so it is up to you to find the "good" kernel.

Running Elegancia with Bricked sound is so-so but as soon as I load the latest SebastianFM' s v1.52 kernel sound is awesome. And I am an audiophile.

Can you explain a bit how sound is related to kernel? I'm a bit of an audiophile myself, not so much with the Sensation but I'm just curious how the kernel plays into it? I'm currently on Bricked 1.4 kernel.

The simpliest comparison I can do, consider the kernel as the equivalent of a Windows driver. Windows can provide a music player but sound will be rendered by the driver.

Any Ideas for A New Rom Cook

I have been trying to cook a rom but i have no idea what to cook. I am very familiar with everything.
Can someone please help me generate some ideas?
Easy, check the Dev forum here for the S4G and cook something no one else has.
Instant success.
I'd like to see some of the better parts of Sense (I really like the weather lock screen and the Friend Stream widget) blended with CM. Just a general idea.

+1 like sense camera with Miui or cm7 rom would be absolutely great. Maybe even Rosie. Combine sense and cm7 /Miui. Beats, or something that really boosts headphones volume while maintaining/boosting audio quality.
Port TouchWiz over
Port a xperia build.

Idk if the kernel is close enough for modification. I'll try it though but probably fail.

People in development section said the same thing but I'm not sure if it possible to mix them like that. A lot of the other and better cookers would have already done it.

I'm talking about trips Miui. Equalizers and such don't work very well.
yea it seems to be difficult. The main problem for me is that I really hate the camera app. The sense cam doesn't work cos it needs the sense framework. If you manage to make it work with the framework of whatever base you use it should work. I tried it but my comp picked a nice time to pack up. And it'll be a while before I get it working again. I love the sense and arc cam apps. With one of those working on cm7 / Miui ill have a rom I can settle down with an xperia port would be nice as well good luck with your developing ill help where ever I can.
I need to get a new computer as well more than 7 years old running on 512 mb of ram not a real thrill.
I'm going to try touchwiz as of right now and see where I go.

[Q] Equalizer not working on ICS Roms?

Been using ics roms for a while now. I just notice that the app I have been using called equalizer is not working with my HTC music. The setting that I have made on it will not take effect. Is this a known issue and how can I fix it?
Thanks

Hi looks like we have the same problem i upgrade to ICS and found out that Equalizer is not yet compatible with ICS, though I really like it coz it produce good quality on the music player combined with the Beats. Gotta wait for that officially from developer. So there's nothing we can do for now

Firstly, HELLO FELLOW SINGAPOREANS!
And yes, sadly, Equalizer is currently not compatible with ICS ROMs. But don't you fret, it should be compatible soon!

[Q] beats audio

couldnt find a straight answer on this so i figured i would post. im running EaglesBlood™ Ice Cream Sandwich [AOSP 4.0.4] on my g2x 2.3.4 what beats audio can i use with this rom that would work?

Please search first. But I'm sure that there is a thread in the android apps and games forum.
If I helped you, push the thanks button for goodness sakes!
i tried. i see people using older versions of eb but like i said i cant find a straight answer to my question
ICS builds all have something called legacy audio, which is essentially the same as beats audio (which is essentially just an equalizer). There are beats mods for gingerbread, but they would drastically improve anything on an ICS rom.

[Q] In-Ear headsets sound is really bad.

Hello, for example i took the SteelSeries Siberia (In-Ear) and i connected it to the Sensation...
Well the sound is okay, but if i get some bad headsets in 1$. the sound will be kind same.
and then i connected the Siberia In-Ear to the Iphone (4S), and the sound was so good!
The volume and the quality was away higher.
Why? I really wanted to bought it, but its not worth it because the sound is bad that it connect to my Sensation.
Can I fix this?
Thank You, Adar.
It depends on kernels i flashed bricked and virtuous rom whit google play music and i own icrap headphones and sound was fantastic !

The sound quality depends on the rom/kernel.
Beats Audio
well buddy you should had posted the ROM details.
Preferably, any of the ROMs with beats audio should be good.. these days htc ville is comming with good sound mixers.
Also at play here is the DAC the Sensation uses and the amp to power the headphone jack.

I'm using first on my sensation, but they both work on my SGS2. I'm pretty sure they will both work but my personal preference is the first one.

My fault fellas, I should have mentioned what Rom I'm on. I have been using this mod on JB Roms. I'm currently on Linaro 4.1.2 JB v.17. The first version is what I'm using no need to deal with changing build prop. Just how I like it nice and simple, Flash Awesome beats than install Noozxiode from the market, I also control sound with noozxiode. Awesome beats is the first DL from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992553. Same link from my first post but this is the first page.
Flashing the awesome beats gives better sound then just noozxoide alone, but I don't do anything with the awesome beats. Control the effects with noozxoide. Here's some ss

Anyone know why mods like this don't work with Poweramp? The only reason I'm still using Sense-based ROM's is because nothing works with Poweramp. I really want to make the final move over to Jelly Bean but I like the SRS, Dolby and Beats enhancements you can get for Sense ROMs.

Something to do with the way in which poweramp handles audio threads, idk much about it tbh, it never bugged me enough to investigate...
Maybe it might be worth you doing a few google searches and see if it comes up with anything

Haha I have done in the past and it mostly throws up people replying to audio mods for various devices claiming they do and do not work with Poweramp. I have found that Dolby Mobile should work on newer JB ROMs, now I just need SRS and Beats too I wouldn't mind if they worked with another player that wasnt Poweramp, but sometimes its hard to tell if you can't turn them on/off on the fly like you can with Poweramp.
