To clarify: It's the sixth link (bottom) 'DOWNLOAD03/02/12' on RockoDev's thread (MOD)(PORT)BEATS .............will pm you shortly.

Here is the 'test0301.zip'.........can't promise no bootloops w/ this, but it worked for me yesterday morning...........since then 4 additional test zips have been added + the thread keeps getting more interesting w/ its cast + dialog + testers = thread updates et cetera.

Hope this helps.

I'm just confused about the permissions. i'm unsing root browser in rom toolbox and on the permissions screen it has three rows from left to right labeled read, write, execute and theres three boxes under each of these labeled in order from top to bottom owner, group, others. I can't figure out whick of these are supposed to be checked. Any help would be great. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DCRocks:
This is how I did it, worked with no issues.

I grabbed the zip from the other thread, extracted to a DIR on my SD card, copied over and rebooted.

Running CM9, Alpha5, all stock.

From the other thread..

set permission each file as "rw-r--r--" (left-3, middle-1,right-1)

Here is a screen shot, how to set this in Root Explorer

Also, system must be set to r/w
[Epic 4G Android Development] ajf64:
well seems only the very first zip works all the others including the latest fezzes at boot. But it defiantly works much clearer sound and the bass is much higher with out losing quality

So I flashed this and I think its working.. I can kinda hear a difference in a few songs it does sound better

But I was wondering is this only for while headphones are on or also on the phone speaker?
[Epic 4G Android Development] djjoshplacid:
thankyou. screen shot is just what I needed. how do I set permissions to r/w for the system? Should I have all 9 boxes shecked? I don't mean to ask a dumb question. I've never had to mess with permissions before. Thanks for the help!
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
Nevermind.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pen0r:
Awesome...I think i hit the spot:

currently on a fresh CM9 alpha5 untouched

- uninstall DSPmanager (this is a must!)

- dl, go to recovery, mount system & flash the beats zip

- search, buy & install Volume+ Full version (the free version is missing all the good stuff)

- search & install ³ player (search for 'cubed player', hit first result)

Now open Volume+, go to headset settings & check speaker mods then on EQ settings pick Beats Emulation then on Volume settings hit 5 (you could go higher but it kinda freaks my earbuds out)

Note: Bass Enhance & Virtual Room on Volume+ dont seem to work on CM9 or ICS, go to dev's site for moar info. I picked the Cubed ³ player just cuz it looks and feels way better than the stock player on CM9 so if you like the stock one then take the cubed ³ as optional.

went and compare it to my friends HTC Rezound at work and he just couldnt believe it.

once again, if you're Android...XDA is your house.

[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Has anyone else noticed quality getting worse? When I use volume plus, my bass gets distorted on all of headphones.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BrooklynsFinest:
Same for me when set too high. Delete dsp manager and disable any other equalizers... Some I forgot about were in player pro.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
Are you getting conflicts w/ player pro?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BrooklynsFinest:
Yes I was, until I turned off its equalizer. Now it's fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigdbag:
Tried out the mod, thanks for your efforts, OP. I do have to gripe a bit though, regarding the Beats-branded audio.

My issue is not with the mod itself, which does work.

I just have to say that the Beats "enhancement" doesn't do much more than artificially crank up the bass on its eq and add some dsp effects, maybe a little virtual stage widening. It may sound better on $5 earphones, but for anyone with decent headphones, this does nothing but make your music sound artificially skewed towards the bass end and make random ranges sound enhanced while others are recessed.

Tested using AHD 5000's + FiiO E11.
[Epic 4G Android Development] .Elite_The_King.:
cause you need to add the audiofx on the framework.jar so it won't sound that bad. gruesomewolf from the evo4g could lend you a hand on that side.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Patrck744:
Have you tried listening to FLACs with this mod? Its only good for rap, hiphop, techno, trance, industrial. Everything else, they sound terrible because the bass was cranked up and its not neutral anymore. They sound really good on low-end head/earphones but if you try a high-end headphone + voodoo sound, you will notice the difference, in a bad way.

[Epic 4G Android Development] thadialeckt:
love this response!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] djjoshplacid:
Through researching it I can confirm that beats is nothing more than eg tweaks. I dunno if anyone knew this or was wondering but here you go! it's something that pretty much bombed on the htc phones it came out on. You're better off tweaking the eq's on your own.
[Epic 4G Android Development] .Elite_The_King.:
Seems you really don't what beats is really about everybody thinks its for bass only and if you're one of those than......beats is about crystal clear from low and high and coming together as one voodoo is a joke comparing to beats, its so much ****ing coding its not funny for this mod to be 3/4 clear you would have to add the missing codecs in the framework.jar if you know how to smali n baksmali I could shoot you the folder to put it in. and couple other files that are missing.

[Epic 4G Android Development] elevans:
If you want good sound, get good headphones and a headphone amp. Messing with the eq really shouldn't be necessary with a digital source.

I know right, people these days i know so many people who have beats for the headphones, or earphones and paid 150+ and bass is whack and goes in n out and isnt that great for the design and build quality. i have the klipsch s4's and the bass is the best for that price range and is far superior than the beats. the type of the driver that is used is awesome which is a "micro-speaker" which is 10 or 11.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Screw that I have a pair of head phones with 30 mm drivers and 30 mm subs which are sick. Those head phones beat every pair of beats I have ever tried. The inky time I would ever get beats is if a HTC phone with it comes to sprint I actually like those and that actually sounds good, there even good phones.

[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
Just realized it uses a special 8mm driver, but I can tell you I have a pair of skull candy ink which uses a 11mm and there no way capable of being good. Plus I have a pair Bose IE2 and they aren't as good as the Klipsch s4, you never even probably heard of them or tried em out. Trust me they blow 200$ ear phone and headphones out the water. you can't compare Head phones to Earphones.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
I'm comparing the headphones I didn't say earbuds. I only payed 70 dollars for them, ill get the link if you think I'm lieing. I was comparing the 400 beats headphones because my friend has them and the solos are just bad. There all way way over price.

[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
I understand plus edited my post again so yeah, but headphones are a different beast but the klipsch headphones for 150$ is still better than the 200$ or 300$ pair of the beats, as long as you hate them were good lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
All good but I don't hate them there not bad but not worth the money at all. I just like the HTC phones with it built in they actually sound good and don't cost any extra. They also have good hardware specs and I love HTC sense.

Sense has been deterriating for some time and there's an interview with a dev on XDA and he even said that he rather use a htc hero or even an older nokia rather than his HTC Sensation. Battery is bad,UI is boring, and not what it used to be. HTC is a good Manuf. But need some motivating good ideas to progress to make it better
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
That's the dev opinion, just like it's Ruly opinion sense is good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mjben:
I am really not getting what this beats mod thing is supposed to do well. It mildly enhanced my sound when used with Volume+, but not nearly as well as even just the Poweramp eq.

And that was 100% useless for me because V+ makes my sound skip.

Now I've installed a voodoo kernel and flashed this as well, but can find no way to use it. (Is this thing on?).

My phone sounds awesome, just flippin AWESOME!, with voodoo and poweramp. And the longer I see this thread hanging around and the more posts I read in it the more irritated I get with Beats and whomever it was that thought I might want this on my phone. Thanks. Now I have to spend an hour restoring and flashing to get rid of it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _pigro_:
Hi. my UK note (baseband N7000XXKK5, 2.6.35.7.N7000XXKKA, CF-root, stock ROM) has recently stopped turning the screen back on after a call (or during a call when I take the phone away from my ear to use the dial pad, go on speaker, etc.).

Normally the only way I can get the screen back is to hold the power key in until the phone reboots (though I've randomly managed to get it back sometimes, possibly when the other party hangs up and/or I'm pressing the power or home keys to try and get it back).

I've turned off the proximity sensor in settings meantime, and calls are fine in that state - but I don't want to waste battery and/or risk pressing stuff on screen with my head/cheek so I'm looking for a fix. Anyone else got this problem or suggestions for a solution?

I used the *#0*# test menu and chose "sensor". This gives a value of 0.0 for proximity until I put my hand within a few cm's of the sensor, at which point the screen goes green, the phone vibrates constantly and the reading changes to 1.0. Once in that state it stays that way when I remove my hand and doesn't change until I hit the back key.

Is the proximity sensor test intended to be a one-shot affair, or should it register 0.0 once I remove my hand?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcjtse:
My galaxy note is having a similar issue, however when I run the sensor test from *#0*#, I observed a different behaviour, where the proximity output says "1.0" and constantly vibrates all the time (which would explain the screen went black when a call comes in even if I put it on the table, as the phone constantly detects something)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _pigro_:
sounds like yours is likely a hardware fault then. I ended up just leaving the proximity sensor disabled for calls and I don't really miss it. The only other thought I had was that my front cam has a load of dust built up under the display glass and it's adjacent to the sensor. I wonder if a layer of dust could trigger it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _pigro_:
actually I just re-ran the sensor test and it now toggles between 0.0 and 1.0 each time I move my hand over the sensor - so looks like in my case I have an intermittant problem. At least now I know how that test is designed to work. I will run it periodically to see whether anything specific is triggering my sensor to stop working.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcjtse:
OK, the following steps resolved my problem:

1. Remove microSD card and turn on the unit

2. Goto *#0*#, sensor test and verify that the issue is resolved

3. Put back in the microSD card

4. Repeat step to and now everything should be back to normal

Just rebooting the unit does not help (as I tried this before), but the above steps have fixed my problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dandwhelan:
Hello,

I purchased a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and connected them to my google galaxy nexus with aokp_maguro_build-27 with kernel 18.6 fransco.

I have my MHL adaptor plugging into my TV via the HDMI cable. I have my WiFi on trying to stream youtube or browse the web, but it seems the signal strengh of my wifi router has dramatically dropped as soon as the MHL device is plugged in.

Maybe all the power is being concentrated in projecting the image out the phone to the MHL adpator and not leaving enough for the wifi to operate properly.

Does anybody have an idea on whats happening?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
What your thinking makes sense. Have you tried leaving the phone in the same place, but unplugging the adapter? Try to eliminate interference from the tv. Try this:

- Start everything a you described to replicate the issue.

- Just turn off the TV and test your wifi

- Just unplug the TV side and test your wifi

- Unplug you're phone side and test

- Move the phone away from the TV and toast

- etc etc

Same Problem here.

Seems as if wlan won`t work while MHL connected. At least not with AOKP. Itried different Kernels with AOKP. No change.
