[MOD] Beats Audio for all GB ROMs

Here is a flashable zip that should integrate beats audio to any GB ROMs, I flashed it over my own Morrisoft Gen 0.7, no bootloops yet. I am currently at a pretty noisy location, cant tell much difference.
The scripts in the zip does not do anything other than copying over the system files, so any ROM devs can just copy it over to their ROMs
Edit: New version with Xloud I have not tested this yet, use with caution
See the original post
Please do make sure to ask for permission to the developer of the MOD if you can use this for your ROM.
Happy deving

i flashed on my ics and noticed a change in sound so not sure if im just hearing things or not

I certainly did read it lol I just thought I'd ask.. I flashed the Photon 4G beats audio which has been tested on CM7 and CM9 and I am notice a significant difference using my full metal jacket Skullcandies.

My ear had an orgasm after I installed this. The sound quality is amazing now! You don't even need the equalizer that comes with the DSPmanager now

This is just a dsp manager. Its just balanced a different way to make bass heavy music sound better.

Beats audio + Dsp manager sucks
Dont do it. Stick with dsp.

well with my headphones (triplefi10) it sounds awfull...
I read somewhere that you need good headphones to hear the differences, but this is more for bad/medium headphones, to compensate the lack of sound, but its better to custom tune the EQ to match your headphones.
If you have good headphones stick with flat or custom EQ.

Is there an undo flash for this?

Delete all the files manually... Patience!

dead link
the links dead

turns out he updated the project with Xloud?? not sure what it is.... looks sketchy but here is the latest link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525226

I tried this with some bossa nova, bass sounds bloated and undefined now... it just goes up and starts EDIT:messing with the mids. If you know about sound I would recommend you keep away from the mod. If you have skullcandies or beats headphones install away.

Beats By Dre for cm7

Mod please delete per our conversation. Thank you

Is it possible it may work on other roms? Either way this is awesome thanks!

I tried it on a broken beats Rom - Joelz TwoPointThree 3.5.
It flashed, the boot initially took a little longer but I went to try it and no sound. Should I try a different player instead of stock or a different Rom? I was thinking of switching to ICS momentarily because Newts 3.5 has gone broken on me.

Just flashed this on a new flash of the official CM 7.1. I haven't had any trouble with music playing or clipping. Just pure sound. Albeit I did not do a comparison so I cannot say if I hear a difference in quality but I am happy with it and will continue to flash it.

What is really Beats by Dre? Sorry

well if the rom didnt have working sound before its not going to give it to it now. so i guess it needs to be cm7
Can someone else confirm that this works on another GB incredible build???

did you try it?

Can i get a link to the original post? I dont feel like making an account on another site just to get a file.
edit: nm with googles help i found the file, i can confirm it works on miui

Joelz new 3.5 had a broken beats file allowing it to not work. Now I switched to cm7, listened to the music first. Very shotty headphones (ifrogz) as my latest earphones died on me.
The sound was eh.. flashed this beats zip and came back to hear it, the clarity and quality increased so much. Should note there is a tolerable difference when not using headphones as your speaker phone may actually sound like bass. Well at least I can gear it, I will try it on Joelz 3.5 again. Cause there is no notification or anything say it works its difficult to pinpoint if it only works on stock players or various ones.
I am hopefully getting new earphones tonight, JVC Xtreme Explosives is what I'm looking at.

I've been using this mod since I saw it on the portal the other day. (or twitter. I can't remember)
It really does make quite a bit of a difference. For you guys trying it out, use nicer headphones. The difference is marginal on $15 skullcandy buds, but on high end speakers, it's really noticeable. Definitely worth the flash.

Here's the file, no need to register somewhere else....
Just flashed it, does this add a menu entry/some new setting to the interface or no?

Can anyone confirm this working (and making a difference) with Gingerbread-Inc-Deck?

May i send to my ladies phone, sir? I have tested side by side with same phone using same ROMs (CM7 newest nightly) using 115 by Treyarch (yes the Black Ops zombie song) and quite a noticeable difference. Also not sure, but I had tested started with volume at 50% and my phone with the zip was louder by 2 notches (decreased volume to regulate) and her phone at 100% was to mine at 80%. I do not use DSP manager as I get a weird noise from it after any sound from speaker ends. Anyone else experience similar volume performance?

Loud earphone call volume fix?

The recent 905 update appears to have fixed the insanely loud earbud call volume problem l was having. But I am itching to get off of stock. I've tried eclipse 2.2 and 3.0 as well as kin3tix. All still too loud even after 905 update. Stock is the only one that fixed it and I still have to have it all the way down. Does anyone know of a ROM that has dealt with this issue? Has anyone else had this issue? Haven't tried Liberty yet.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA

Have you tried applying the Dre's Beats Audio with it. I haven't tried it yet with anything other then Eclipse 3.0 and headphone audio been great.

I thought Beats audio was included in the builds. Headphones sound great and volume adjustment is fine in everything except in call. Whenever I make a call I can't keep the earbuds in my ears unless I want ruptured eardrums.

What's the difference between d Dr Dre Beats Audio and the beats audio cwm installer? The .zip installer sounds like it may gut the stock sound defaults. May be a good thing. What do you think?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

Thanks for the advice about beats audio. I installed the cwm installer version from Google Play Store. Seems to have worked. Call volume is much lower. I'm back on Kin3tix Theory rom with Honeyscream theme. Highly recommend it BTW. Great looking rom, fast too. I like it a lot more than eclipse 3.0 even though it's based on an older bionic build. Thanks again for steering me in the right direction. Now if only I could get Swype to work on my Kindle Fire.

The CWM version is the only one I would use along with a eq app from playstore to enhance the audio 150% more then stock. The CWM version does replace some lib files in the rom with a inhanced version. None of the roms have it included so it is a good idea to keep the zip file on hand for when you change roms. I just took to plung and installed bootstrap for the first time, always used safestrap, and installed the update through it. Playing Pandora couldn't be any better then this. You don't need to get it from the Playstore its avaible through the forums I beleive under Themes.

Glad to see it worked out for you. Yes I do beleive KIN3TIX is a awsome rom as well, its stupid fast. I just wished DT would come back to work on our devices, but what can one do.

Make speakers louder

I've looked all over for a solution to make the speakers louder on 4.2.2 but no luck . When I got the phone it seamed loud but now I can't hear people when making calls in the car. I've tried beats off all different volumes and all the crap apps but still it's no louder than my note. I've read that HTC have lowered the volumes on 4.2.2 is there any way to get the volume back and make the speakers louder. Please don't respond by saying your phone is loud enough as mine isn't!!
Thanks

There is a zip to make it really loud again.

Sorry fella, I have the 4.2.2 update stock rom (UK unbranded) and the volume is so loud I cannot listen at full volume in a quiet room and have it max of 75% my age 49 so my hearing not as good as a teen obviously. I think your phone may well be faulty?

Both are correct. HTC has lowered the volume repeatedly in their upgraded firmwares. The man who said his is still loud is most likely still running old >1.26 FW.
Now, as of a way to raise these volumes im not quite sure how to do this through file editing (Maybe the zip in post #2 or #3 works, idk, if your in dire need, nandroid and flash it) BUT if youre up to flashing a kernel (assuming youre running 4.2.2 and are on sense) you can flash Tbaldens Performance Kernel (in Orig. Android Dev. section) and that will give you options to boost volumes on multiple fronts. I can confirm this works myself, as i use this feature actively and dont experience any crackling or popping. If you decide to download this kernel, youll need Trickstermod Kernel Control app from the Play Store to edit the values.
(Lol, seems like alot but i promise its not. Plus you get extra sweet features like USB Fastcharge, and Overclocking and all that jazz with the kernel. Its worth it)

Extract the tfa folder and then replace it with the tfa folder in system/etc/tfa. Set permissions, reboot

4.3 Low sound issue

Since the update, I've noticed that the sound is noticeably lower than 4.1. I'm thinking of taking the audio files from 4.1 over to the 4.3 zip and trying that. Before I do, any feedback would be appreciated. I'm trying this as opposed to a 3rd party mod 1. because sense 4.3 is new, and no mod is really out there for it yet and 2. it's HTC code, just from an earlier rom, and wouldn't require updating.

+1 I'm sending my phone in for camera and u told then to check my BoomSound because its not as loud as it was on 4.1.2 and I asked the rep if they turned it down and he got offended by it like oh no we would never do such a thing . I'll laugh my ass off all the way to the next company if you can bring back sound like it was before
Pure x audio just doesn't do it

any link for the mod ?
is it applicable over stock rom or a custom rom ?

No, this has to do with extracting firmware files from earlier versions, before HTC reduced the safety levels due to warranty claims. I can do it, but I was looking for some feedback before I get going with it this weekend. I will let you all know how it turns out.

There's Viper4Android if you're rooted, and PureXAudio if you're not, both claim to accomplish making it louder, but there are comments that say "not enough," or that it's buggy, etc. So, I am taking a different approach to it, and pulling everything from HTC's own firmware before they lowered it.

well there are some build.prop edits that will happen
Ipa.decode=true to lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=true to tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=true to lpa.use-stagefright=false
try that, it worked for me plus i installed viper4andriod
