Just a heads up to those who may not know, there is a Beats Audio/xLoud mod/port on the board and it works on the Atrix 2. Beats adds a deeper, cleaner bass and cleans up the mids/highs too. xLoud is a Sony Ericsson thing, it basically boosts the overall volume of ur audio. I just flashed this mod to my phone and holy ****, huge difference! I had to turn all my volumes down media/ringer/alarms. My good cans are packed (moving this weekend) so no testing with them yet but after hearing the difference I just heard with only the phone speaker I'm expecting to be very happy.

where is the xloud .zip file?
Whoa - déjà vu!
xLoud is included in the zip.
Audio volume really is increased overall (I too had to turn everything down) and the beats makes the bass sound sweet!

Yep, very noticeable difference. This one is much better than the first one w/o xLoud.

Maybe its just me, but I can't seem to find a difference in quality using the car dock. Audio goes out the car docks 3.5mm jack to my Volvo s60r's stereo. I was hoping for some more volume.

Tried this tweak last week and it's great. My highs have come alive and it sounds much cleaner.
So how does the mod affect the Motorola stock equalizer?
I'm assuming the beats audio is only effective in the My Music app? So do I have to disable the "Effects" in settings to hear the Beats Audio? Or should I switch that to custom?
This work well seems crisper...... Did notice if the bass is overpowering the mids and lows go to sound settings and un-tick enable audio effects..... For me with headphones will set effects enabled effects profile custom surround ambient eq bass punch WOW!!!!!

Mine are....I have had to turn all my volumes down since installing this mod. I haven't done any critical listening since I don't use my phone like that anyway, I was just hoping for louder system sounds and that's exactly what I got. The Beats is just an added bonus.
Ok are we supposed to download the one that says older zip files test301.zip or the allandroidzip.zip that looks to be the newest?

Works great thanks! Sounds a lot better ican tell right away
So im sorry but I did this. And to be honest it didn't sound better at all. In fact I think it was worse everyone keeps saying stuff like wow... what a difference. But I hear worse clarity, more bass but... im a musician and so sounds I hear more clearly maybe than most but Idk.... anyways like I said im not trying to be rude.

Yea these are some of the same complaints I've heard about the actual beats headphones because they're made really for more hip hop songs and not a wide range of music the highs are where those headphones usually suffer IMO

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.

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 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.

It basically driver-libs driven mod. The audio fx widget enables the massive boost in audio output when turned on. There is a flat eq which just boost audio output like no other. It's a mixture between hardware/software mod.

mmm...running on Yuma75s AOKP Build 40 ROM using only headphones (Brainwavz M4 IEMs)
-On EQ 1: I can definitely tell there's a cleaner output in vocals and the higher frequencies.
-Beats Audio Bass definitely is noticeable and does sound nice: nicer than the Sys apk "Awesome Beats" equalizer variant of Beats Bass.
-I added the two lines to the build.prop and noticed cleaner output from my lower-bit files.
-I didn't notice an overall audio output from the music though the same way Voodoo Control's Headphone Amp does it though.
-Mixing both Voodoo and this mod together with the right equalizer setting is pretty heavenly.
I hope this one fixes problem that I have with my Three way earbuds that has lower volume than four way earbuds.

Yeah this plus voodoo just makes it almost perfect. This uses filters and library based on the phone. I advise to not use auto volume. Set gain to 5 then get it rip.

Sorry if this is completely obvious, what do the various settings in Audio fx do? Dialog mode doesn't bring up a dialog that I can find and I'm not sure what I'm toggling with Toggle mode. And 'restore defaults' restores the phone to it's default settings, is that right? I'm a little unsure about how well the flash went because in the post you link to in the OP, there are controls, but I can't find any on my phone... unless I should be using the DSP Manager?

Pull it up as a widget. Settings in the apps section affect how it will work and appear as a widget. Once you see the widget..it will make more sense to you.
this MAY be obvious to others, but just want to clarify. I have been known to be kind of a dullard.
i am running Cypher ROM, do we just flash this on top of the Rom, like GAPP's ?
i know your title suggests what this will work with, as always, i just want to be 100% sure.
if this is what i hope it is, this and YOU are my savior. everything in this new flood of development is great with ICS & JB. my only personal issue has been sound of music.
NOT THE MOVIE.
it has been a little lacking compared to GB. i am not complaining, every other part of development lately has been ORGASMIC.
wondering if this is my answer ???

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 ?

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.
