I'm using Viper, but I gotta say I don't hear what all the hubub is about. Another way to tweak your sound well beyond what is natural and the artist intended. I downloaded it to try to boost the input in my car.
Beats doesn't sound good. Viper does tho. See here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528397

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

Equalizer is the only reason I went back to gingerbread. Volume+ is working with ICS roms , but is not like in gingerbread.

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!
Cheers!
Like the sign says..is there anyway to add beats audio to hashcodes stock cm9 rom. I know there are custom roms with beats built in but a lot of my apps just seem to work better with the stock cm9 rom he built.

I just installed the same one I always have, the one labelled for Gingerbread, I think.
Do you have a link to one that works? I've tried two or three different ones floating around and I get an immediate system sound f/c upon reboot.

Installed your ROM yesterday. Works great!.
As for Beats Audio, I don't even know what that is or why I should care
Can you point me in the right direction?

It's a set of software libraries that should provide you with better sound I'm able to hear a clear difference when comparing the stock ROM and gedeROM, but be the judge of that yourself.
I thinks it's funny how Beats Audio on the hardware side is so terrible but the software aspect is pretty damn good. I was really skeptical but the bass is much fatter in comparison and the whole thing just has better sound overall. It's now totally obvious to me the main design focus was cosmetics to make all the little hipster kids happy when they should've been smart and focused primarily on functionality. But who does that nowadays, right? On a side note, I can't stand the ridiculous white ones. They might as well make them bright yellow with flashing lights, like "Hey, everyone, look how trendy I am!"

Oh don't get me wrong i'm using ged's rom too and love it..i just have an issue where dsp manager does absolutely nothing (ie: i move the sliders no sound change) and any other eq app i've tried f/c's immediately when opening. I love the sound change beats provides but i also would like to be able to fine tune with and eq. I've flashed G's rom with a fresh install and 3 different downloads and still get f/c's on any eq app? So i thought maybe one of the thousands of beats.zips floating around might work if i flash it over a stock cm rom. I want your rom to work for me ged, but the lack of eq bums me out. Any idea what i'm doing wrong with dsp manager?

I tried DSP yesterday. I heard difference as soon as a changed a setting. This is from the internal speakers not headphones.
So is it possible to add Beat Audio to, say, Modaco ROM?

Same here, headphones don't register. Found an eq that works and sounds great with beats on ged's rom.

I installed the Beats 5.1 ZIP from this thread, using TWRP on Hashcode's #10 ROM.
Works great, other than the DSP no longer works and the ROM likes to throw an occasional error at boot up to tell me so. I think this is generally intentional on the part of Beats, since it now manages sound. Since stock DSP no longer manages sound, it would make sense it no longer works.

Yea I actually found beats audio in of all places the play store! Now I can flash it with any rom! Just get that " sound system has stopped" error on boot but it goes away and the sound is much improved.

WTF?!? IIRC, Beats and HTC have an exclusivity deal in place. I'm surprised HTC hasn't requested this be removed from Play.

Yep. It's just an Apk that builds a flashable zip that you use in CWM. I didn't think it would work , but it did.

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

I recently upgraded from stock firmware to custom firmware and installed awesome beats v3 via pimp my rom but since then i don't hear any bass boost or sound enhancement. I was able to hear presets of awesome beats and virtual room setup before very well on stock rom. I have tried flashing back stock rom but awesome beats still does not work.
I have tried music fx, volume+ etc but there presets makes no audio difference either. Please help ..
Device- galaxy note 10.1
Model number- 8013
Custom firmware- 4.1.1
This is a question would request you to post it in Q&A section.
You sound will be as good as you hardware (speakers) allows it to be so if your speakers are performing at its best no amount of software can do that much good it will make some difference though.
Its like putting make-up will that change how you look no it may improve your looks

Well the headphones i am using now are the same i used when awesome beats bass boost was working on stock firmware. I have also tried using a different pair but noo sound difference.
May be the rom is not compatible and has issues with it
maybe rom already has it or something like that pre installed and you can not notice difference because of that?
maybe it's already enhanced ?

I have tried several differnte roms but i don't hear sound enhanced at all . The bass boost or any other sound preset output are all similar. i have tried different headphones as well but no difference.
You have to believe in the brand and Dr. Dre and if you try hard enough you will think it sounds better. That's how beats work.

I have tried almost all major brands of headphones but headphones would definitely make a difference if sound quality is either coming from amp or good sound preset system otherwise there was no need of amp or equalizer before a speaker.

Every device I've had, I've tried beats MOD with no difference other than downgrading the sound. It's funny seeing people comment saying how good of a difference it made lol
