Turning off beats audio - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yesterday i installed beats audio and the sound is great with headphones but not so good with the speaker. Is there any way i can deactivate it like in the htc one x

Unless there's an undo zip, you'll have to reflash your ROM (no wipe).

Beats really enhances the device audio via headphones using extreme bass boost.
I really respect the exploit port. No need to come here and bash on it.
But I respect opinions. What would you recommend instead?
ANd as Chris said, you will have to reflash. Or you could try installing another audio manager from the market. You will be prompted to set default.
Or
You could explore audio settings in settings.

You cant turn it off, if you want to remove it you have to reflash your rom.

Voodoo sound vs beats audio

Thinking about flashing beats audio. I already have voodoo sound.Which the difference detween them? Which is better? They are both sound amplifiers?
I dont know whether beats audio works on 2x but voodoo does work. Plus DSPManager along with Voodoo makes music complete. One more PLUS LG'S default music player is very high audio quality music player with lib dependent HW equalizing unlike other players which uses cpu for DSP.
So in summary,
LG music player + voodoo + dspmanager thats way enough for an ear

Now i'm using audio beats with boose and i have to say that i feel the difference between before (using vodoo sounds^^). Finally i think that audio beats is better...it's my opinion of course.
My vote goes to beats audio.
of course voodo sound, beats audios take no effect=.=
Well, manage to find working dsp manager.. my settings:
1) v20q rom+stock kernel
2) beats audio
3) dsp manager: bass boost moderate+rock eq
Results: Listening to Metallica, and surprisingly superb..
Wish Jason Newstead's bass sound a bit clearer..

Listen Metallica"s "fixxxer" or "the memory remains" for real deep bass. Jason newsted was a great bassist

According to supercurio, The Creator of voodoo, he said beats makes no diferrence, he measured it. Also I would really believe something really optimised to our phones, to our hardware.
Anyway, if beats do something(which I dont believe), it would be just some software enhancement like equalizer or anything faulting the clearness of the sound.
Just my opinion based on my logic.

I think its not which one is the best.. its about which is convenient to users. For me, the Beats Audio advantage is we dont need another app to configure it, as Voodoo we do need the app to activate it.
Just flash Beats Audio, install DSP Manager and find your settings. (To me, its simpler)..

Yea it does. I've tried pretty much everything (acid audio, king beats, beats louder) and in my opinion, the combo in pimp my ROM is the best. I do the bravia engine2, pimp my beats, and xloud clear audio
I've been using Awesome Beats by ...Awesome... setup is tricky at first but the customization is amazing. Using BT with Jbl On Tour and beats ear buds. Pandora, Walkman, Google Music, SiriusXM all sound amazing. Just gotta pay $4 and you get updates as he rolls then out.

I beg to differ, I know for a fact the x-loud mod modifies audio lib files for louder and better sounding music and notifications, it also has various other modifications to unleash the quality of music while impacting battery life ever so slightly.

Agreed.. You can add all the new libraries etc all you want because in the end what really matters is the DAC and if the DAC sucks, so will your audio quality and the Tegra DAC is awful.. But what do you want for a $250 tablet. ?
For my car I use my Nexus 7 and use my headunits EQ for dealing with the bad tegra DAC
For a walkman I use my Nexus S because it has a wolfson DAC and it's absolutely incredible and no EQ needed as it actually makes it worse
For home audio (when not playing through my PC) I use my Nexus 10 which also has a wolfson DAC and is incredible and no EQ needed as it actually makes it worse.

AwesomeBEATS has 3 dynamic compression settings, 3 levels of beats boost and room size adjustments along with beats eq settings, and they are all fully functional. His install also includes his v5 install that allows all system sounds to be tweaked to your liking. No, not just equalizers.

That looks similar to dsp manager from cm, a little TOO similar....
Looks like BS to me, like most of these sound mods going around, ESPECIALLY ones that use beats to market themselves.
Beats is Sh*t.
Edit: just had a quick look there and it's plain to see that this beats whatever is a blatant rip off of dsp manager.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Best audio you can get from an N7 is not to use it for serious audio purposes. Use something else if you're serious about sound. It will never be good, no matter what mod or headphones.
Dang someone's critical. It's not the same lib files check out how many modified dsp managers you can find and get back to me. I just appreciate that it works as promised.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I use the Fiio E11 coupled with a pair of Audio Technica m50s for hardware, and Neutron for my player. While they are right about the Nexus 7 not being able to create audiophile level quality sound, my ears enjoy this setup. YMMV
I like the nexus 7 sound. Use poweramp, a great set of wesc cans, and use FLAC files for all my tunes. Can`t complain at all.

If you really want quality sound w/headphones, otg cable to external DAC is the way to go! Need to be rooted and have the poitee, trinity 7 or Timur's Kernel. Much better with a decent DAC than any equalization or software mod. I'm listening to Joe Lovano's latest album right now on my Shure SHR-940's ->FiiO e10-> USB otg -> N7. Sounds really good.

[Q] Best Rom for music and sound mods?

So I'm getting a note 2 very soon and so I'll be using my IncS as a media phone in my car, speakers at parties etc. So what ROMs would you guys recommend with what sounds mods? The reason I ask "what ROM" is because some ROMs support different mods to other ROMs, cheers guys.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
AOSP if you want to be flashing mods like awesomebeats and ac!d with equalisers
Viper if you want to use the built in SRS, Dolby or beats. SRS and Dolby on viper is actually dope so I highly recommend those for sound enhancements
If the note 2 has a Wolfson DAC though, I'd be using that
Thanks for that. I'll probably use the note 2 aswell, but my IncS will most likely be the primary sound device.

[MOD] ViPER4Android Audio Effects

EDIT: I am not affiliated with this MOD at all, I'm simply spreading the word.
Alright, forget AwesomeBEATS, AC!D Soundmod and DSP Manager. I've been trying this out for a few weeks now, with incredible results. I have tested this on both Borked ROM and PACman, and works flawlessly on both so it should work on all ROMs available for our Vivid. The only bug I have noticed is the separate bluetooth settings don't seem to make a difference, it just uses the Headset settings. Here are the settings I've found with the best sound for me so far, it will make your ears happy.
V4A-FX Powered On- CHECKED
PlaybackAGC- Unchecked
FIR Equalizer- CHECKED- I use Vocal Booster
Convolver- CHECKED- srs_2_1_normal+headset.irs
Field Surround- CHECKED- Both set to Moderate
Reverberation- Unchecked
Dynamic System- CHECKED- I have Denon headphones so I select High-End, sometimes Extreme. I can tell a difference between the two.
Tube Simulator- CHECKED
Just read through the thread and you'll find the .irs files and what to do with them. Installation is super easy and makes a huge difference.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
For our Vivid, choose A8Cortex with Neon when it does the initial driver setup.
If you have TitaniumBackup or can otherwise completely remove DSP Manager, I highly recommend this as to avoid conflicting settings.
thank you it works! my cm10 flashed vivid is so much louder and clear thanks again
I also want to point out my edit, if you can remove DSP manager from the system I recommend doing so, as its settings will conflict and deteriorate Viper's.
I'm glad you said something cus I deleted dsp manager and I'm using viper and I was gunna reflash the dsp manager since I think there's to much bass and music is a bid distorted.

It really does turn your phone into a high-end preamp/mixer, the audio profiles you can create with a little tweaking are amazing. This is one of the best setups I've found so far, for my headphones and the cassette adapter in my car-
Headset-
Master Power- On
Playback Gain- Off
FIR Equalizer- On- Vocal Booster
Convolver- On- IRS I use is samsung_i9300_soundalive_11_virtualchannel7.1.irs
Field Surround- Off
Headphone Surround- Off in the car, On for headphones (sometimes)
Reverberation- Off
Dynamic System- On- Extreme Headphones(v2), 16% Dynamic Bass, Tube Simulator enabled
Fidelity Control- ViPER Bass- On- Natural Bass, 40hz, 3.5db, ViPER Clarity- On- OZone+, 3.5db
Auditory System Protection- Cure Tech- On, Moderate
Master Gate (Limiter)- 0db, 0db
Glad it's working out for you guys!

I started to install it but got stuck. When I go to put the apk in the system/app folder it says "has not been copied" but it does list it as there twice both having 0kb size
Does it have a huge difference compared to DSP Manager? and what are the difference?
considering trying this mod...
but i need to know how to uninstall this mod ...just incase i don't like it ....
(I'm currently rooted running a stock dedoxed rom... using beats audio and poweramp so headphone wise i have no issue with the sound, but sound through the phones speakers is just too low.)
I'm on 4.2.2 Unofficial Dirty Unicorn (7-18-13),
after flash the rom,on phone speaker, default bass was too heavy to make it sounds horrible, and the dsp manager didn't work.
but this MOD works great!
Really thanks for the info, it fixed my phone speaker problem

I gave it a try. For me ACID sound was much better, but it's currently not supporting 4.3 well. I tried a lot of options in VIPER, but still with only Poweramp settings it sounds amazing, so no 'audio boosters' are needed.
Yep this is the best.
Totally recommend.
Easy installation, superior quality and tons of settings.
I think this is better in overall than ACID mod.

Tried standard FX mode (super quality and power save). The sound is awesome but I experience high cpu temperature and massive battery drain. Even charging doesn't work properly anymore (connected but it's not charging, like -1% in 5 mins).
Does anybody experience similar problems or know why this occurs?
EDIT: I'm on Vanir nightly of 21.10
with Optimus Play kernel.
UPDATE: Tried to install it again as I wanted to figure out why I got this drain. After driver installation and reboot I watched the cpu freqs with Trickster Mod for quite some time and they got stuck on 4 cores over 475 MHz all the time (heat and drain apparent).
After another reboot I played around with trickster's settings (1core max, 2 cores max, power save mod etc) and suddenly after about 3 mins my cpu cooled down real quick and only the needed cores were online.
Now after 2 hours I have no drain anymore. Not sure what happened but I'm glad I can use this awesome mod.
