Quality headphones, some jazz & hiphop it sounds great. (In my exp: Shure e3c, Klipsh S5i etc.)

I don't & wouldn't recommend any EQ set with IEMs.

Hell I wish I could afford a pair of IEMs of my own. I want UE 18 pro IEMs.

Sent from my EVO LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gutrrob:
I have the UE triplefi 10 IEMs and must say it sounds better with beats enabled!

They sound the best with (beats ur) selected...It brings out the highs and lows.

Maybe the sound will change when I fully burn in the IEM

All my mp3s are 320k
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arrogantbastard:
LOL I should probably qualify my previous post. By sounding "right, " I mean natural and balanced. From a critical standpoint, I think it unnaturally exaggerates the bass and treble at the expense of midrange definition. Kinda like all those boom and sizzle systems I always used to hear in my high school parking lot (late 80's :eek:)

A lot of the time I actually have it enabled (I agree on urBeats being the best setting). It's good for casual listening, and let's face it, who uses a phone for critical listening anyway?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gutrrob:
+1 on the critical listening on a phone!

I think its a hardware/software problem why the EVO sounds flat with the EQ off... Or maybe HTC wants beats software to shine by making EQ off to sound like crap.

Usually quality IEMs sound great with EQ off but not with the EVO.

What model Alpine in the car? Sorry for off topic but a car audio guru here and always love to see members that have car audio equipment.

Yes, that's me in the video.

Anyways, back on topic for me, sorry. Am thinking about picking myself up some good headphones here soon. I personally like the Beats By Dr. Dre EQ to be honest but definitely is a Genre mood IMO

That has to be the most disgusting screen shot I have ever seen on Xda.

On topic, I see no point in Beats audio. With my Grado SR60-i, the sound is ruined by the terrible amounts of base, just like using actual Beats branded headphones. I hate to imagine the sound on actual beats along with the EQ, because just the EQ itself ruins anything but rap music, which I look upon with distaste.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bmoreboy02:
You gota look at the big picture. The selling factor of just slapping that beats audio label on these phones. Bc say what you want beats dose make a noticable difference when listening. Now people here on xda are alot smarter then the average phone user (including myself lol) bc you guys are always thinkin outside the box and have a way of figuring out ways to make things better. But to the average public you just slap that beats audio label on and well take it lol. I listen to alternative and classic rock. (shinedown, chevelle, stones, zeppelin, a7x) and can now hear certain things hidden real deap in the song that i couldnt before.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AB33:
I use the Rocketfish Bluetooth headphones from Best Buy and they work perfectly with the phone and Beats Audio.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unknown_owner:
Works with bluetooth car stereos because I get more bass with it when synced with my car radio. I also see the Beats icons and it's enabled.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] engelsione:
My ear phones are Skull Candy metal ones....with beats audio and this ear duds you don't need anything else
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ryanalan82:
Yeah shootU needs an update I guess. first time I've used it in months. Anyways I really recommend using those exact headset settings. It was hrs of testing to make it right.... Not just with rap. And the more you increase bass boost, it lowers the volume some, so maybe only increase to 1. This should be the maximum best sound you can get from this phone right now without hacks like xloud, or kernel tweaks.

Swyped from my eVo
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hercules rockefeller:
I've been right there with you before - the only reason my stereo isn't worth more than my car at the moment is that my Fit is relatively new. But it'll definitely be worth more than the car by the time I'm done with it, becuase I'm too darn cheap to buy a new car until I've nearly run the old one in to the ground. I need my money to buy more audio EQ and accessories for my Evo LTE!

Personally, I've got the CDA-9886 with the audio processor (KHA-100 or something like that. my JBL mids / two way mid/tweets are running through a JL Audio amp and I've got a single JL 12" sub running through a Rockford Fosgate sub amp. I haven't had a chance to try it with my Evo LTE yet, becuase my head unit doesn't support bluetooth and I wired my aux input up through my dash to where the car mount for my old OG Evo was located (I haven't found a car dock just yet. But I'm anxious to see how it sounds, as the audio on the OG Evo wasn't nearly loud enough when it ran through my Seidio car Dock.

Any opinions out there about audio quality through bluetooth vs the headphone jack on an aftermarket car stereo? I'm wondering if it might be worth it to spend the money on the bluetooth interface for my head unit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lacrossev:
I've used quite a few bluetooth headsets and after you get used to them your standards might drop a bit then you get acclimated to them, but whenever i plug something like my UE SuperFI Vi's in, its a world of difference. I used to have the kenwood KCA-BT200 addon for my kenwood deck, and while it sounded alright, traditional A2DP using BT 2.1 is not going to sound as good as straight wired, especially if you've got an aftermarket setup.

With that said, I've heard good things about Apt-X on the steroclip and the samsung HS3000, going to order that and wire for permanent installtion for my car so its one less wire to plug in when i get in.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
Personally, I think the sound that comes out of this phone is awesome. Beats isn't that great when listening to rock, alternative, metal even. When I listen to Pretty Lights or some club, bass heavy music it sounds really good with the urBeats setting.

When I first read the reviews and what true critics were saying about Beats technology and headphones I was expecting straight diarrhea to spray into my ears. Yes, they are overpriced and not the greatest technology. If u don't take in all the negativity and listen to mostly hip hop/club music I have to say Beats deserves a 7/10.

When I was actively dj-ing, vinyl not the cheap cd/mp3 ****, u had to have a good pair of headphones to hear subtleties that u sometimes couldn't make out with run-of-the-mill earbuds. This phone and some Walmart headphones sound just as good as my old $350 technic headphones did 10 years ago.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
Personally I like BlueTooth for a few reasons, Hands Free car stuff, some pretty "wow" features for a 1994 Honda. Also with BlueTooth the audio stays Digital instead of Digital/Analog/Digital conversion with an AUX cable. Sounds, to me, much more crisp. Personally the extra money for HD Radio and BT has always been worth it if you spend enough time in your car.

But since we are breaking down the systems - Alpine head unit, Memphis MClass 6's & 6x9s, Memphis Poly Tweets, 2 Pioneer 10's, 3 Alpine Amps run through an old MTX Digital cross over - the old ones sound a ton better than the new ones. Doors and Floors are Dynamated. I've also got a set of 12" Fosgate Punch G's in a QLogic box, but really don't have anything I can do with them right now 2 10s and 2 12s would be way too much....May put them in my wifes car.

The sad apart about all of that /\, I listen to talk radio 80% of the time :-/.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
+1

Sound is something obviously personal and not going to be the same for everyone. If you don't like Beats, turn it off. I use it when streaming BT to my 2012 CR-V head unit, makes the sound 100% more enjoyable to my ears. Kind of reminds me of DBS quality or enhancement devices such as aural exciter etc..I know the difference between those technologies but talking about the result not the actual algorithms/hardware used. For me, it works and 100% better than my EVO4G.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niclz:
Hello, I just received my galaxys s3 and decided I wanted to intall the Omega ROM on my phone. It states that its for the stock XXALF2 but my phone shows I9300UBLE6 on baseband version. Can i still flash this rom with that version? if not, what do I have to do to be able to install the omega ROM?? thanks in advanced!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svprm:
It does not relate to Baseband Rom.

First root your phone using CF-Root.

Backup your rom first.

Then install Omega Rom via Recovery.

If it is cause any problem then restore.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niclz:
Thank you for replying,

Kk I got it. .il go ahead and root my phone n install cwm n .il do a nandroid backup before I install the Rom. Thanks ages for your help!!
[HTC One X] gowings23:
For some reason when I try to install this ROM, everything seems to install fine, but after starting up the first time nothing works. It just shows a blank home screen with a white Triangle on the left side of the notification bar. After about 20 seconds the phone just reboots.

I fastboot erase cache, then fastboot flash boot boot.img, then go to recovery and install the maXimus V2.0 ROM.

I'm sure I'm screwing something up. Any ideas?
[HTC One X] pewpewbangbang:
Try a full wipe??
[HTC One X] gowings23:
I figured it out. I had the boot.img in the wrong directory so it wasn't flashing right.

Stupid me.
[HTC One X] Thulith911:
Boot.img solution

If ur havin issues flashing the correct boot.img/Kernel etc i recommend you download the "HTC ONE X THE ALL IN ONE KIT". Just search this on forums and it should come up. This might help:D
[HTC One X] cecoboy88:
I have the same problem but I forgot to create that boot.img.

How can i connect my phone via USB ? because hboot doesn't work
[HTC One X] SamStone:
I changed the color of the text on my home page and now I would like to change the text color on the lockscreen to match it but I can't see any way to change it, is there a way? Thanks
[HTC One X] DarkMio:
You cant change it, without ans Kind of lockscreen reppacement, or a hack of the lookscreen-apk.

And Trust me, without root is any lockscreen-replacement crap, since there is a 5second rule for opening an app after switching the phone off, and a hack would be impossible without root.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hasan10:
Hello everyone

Has anyone else been experiencing graphical glitches on their tablet ever since .28 update? These glitches were completely fixed on .21, regardless of which program I used. On .28, these have returned and happen mostly in gallery, Polaris Office, and Smart Office 2 application while editing any document (PDF, word, excel) which I do ALOT.

Also, beside graphical glitches, I have also noticed an increase in Browser crashes. Again, on .21 browser crashes were almost non-existent.

I was perfectly happy with .21 with EZOverclock and custom build file. The new .28 update is really ruining the experience for me.

Is there anyway to downgrade to .21? I manually updated to .28 by placing the update file on my MicroSD card, can I downgrade that way as well?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zurcaled11:
.28 glitches

I just updated last week and began noticing these glitches.

They occur for me in the bottom left corner and makes certain rows of pixels on the back button flip the opposite direction and when in certain applications the bottom left corner/side has rows of pixels that go haywire.

I also noticed that with this update occasionally my status bar on the bottom will move a pixel row up and back down (same with the keyboard on occasion) giving a bouncing look.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
lol sweet its not just me :)

it was bugging me for a while lol i'm just staring at it moving up and down up and down xDD
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tritium3.016:
This is exactly what happens to me. Particularly when viewing videos and pdfs. Sometimes I get the left edge crazy lines thing. Hate to say it but .28 does seem to be a bust for my machine, .21 was pretty sweet.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Defiant79:
I too was getting the glitches, I did a factory reset (several actually) and re-installed everything on my non rooted non unlocked Prime and it seems to be doing much better now.

I would mainly see the glitches while using the YouTube app or Firefox.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zurcaled11:
I'll have to try some factory resets. Hopefully they'll put out a fix soon. Thanks.

Well i have Yahoo Messenger and the Plug in installed, it's allowing me to make video calls, however it only shows black screen. wonder why..

is it bec. im using 2.2 only? should i update to 2.3? or should i root my phone?.. i really don't know what to do.

read something about verizon disabled the front camera or something but i dont know if thats even the issue, since even my back camera aint working, and i can't even see the other person as well who's using a laptop.

Hehehe.. hope someone can answer my question..

i will try to update to 2.3, and rooted it, even i'm not really sure the advantage of being rooted..
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OhioYJ:
There is no front camera on the Fascinate. The two things on the front are a light and proximity sensor.

So I'm wondering if people can come up with clever uses for these things. So far I've only got a couple of ideas

#1 A sticker on my laptop so I can just hold my phone up to it to auto initiate bluetooth.

#2 Same for a PS3 controller. A sticker on it that enables bluetooth connection with it, and takes me right to my games folder.

...beyond that I can't really think of anything.

Any ideas?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b0vine:
Hi guys, this is a friends Nexus S he bricked during an ICS update (official one). I can't get it to work at all. It boots up an android guy with a red triangle and a (!) coming out of his chest. The bootloader is locked (version I9020XXKL1). He's never tried to root beforee

Things I've tried:

Got ADB drivers working

'ADB factory reset oem unlock' gets me a dialog screen on the phone confirming the unlock, then when I confirm, I get: 'FAILED. remote erase: fail'. Tried with serial number (saw a random post mentioning that), but same result.

I tried flashing an IMG file through fastboot with a similar error. the device shows up in getstate and devices, but you can't write to it it seems.

Mentioned to someone at work and he said I should be able to get a stock RUU exe file and you just run the RUU. Similar to a 1 click odin fix, but...not. Cause I can't get into download mode. If I try to go into recovery mode from fast boot, that's when you see the dead android guy with the (!). If I just try and let it boot on its own..it just boot loops. Doesn't turn off/on, but never passes the 'Google' splash screen.

I've searched for the RUU files and can't find them anywhere, at least for a Nexus S. Am I missing something here? Not sure what else to try.

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigaTiger:
Firstly is this still under warranty? Since its the offical ICS update. Just tell him to go to his provider and ask for a replacement since it was not the user's fault.

A few questions. Why is he receiving the ICS update now? If this was ages ago when ICS was first released, Google stopped ICS update for a weeks or so since there was some problems.

And if the warranty doesnt work. Id say root it and flash a Recovery.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b0vine:
It's a few months out of warranty, and no, TELUS won't replace it, he's already tried.

I also can't root it as mentioned. I get to this point in the guide

For Windows:

fastboot oem unlock

And get the ERASE:FAILED error once confirming the unloock.
[HTC One S] tobia996:
I've just bought my new one s , but it is personalized by an Italian provider, with many apps and new icons. Does exists a way to unbrand it without unlock the bootloader ? I only need to change those horrible icons and uninstall some waste

Inviato dal mio HTC EVO 3D X515m con Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
You need root to remove bloatware, To get root you need unlocked bootloader.

You could however run an RUU, but if you dont have an unbranded one for your region, You will have to change CID, Which also requires root.
[HTC One S] tobia996:
thank you very much! so i don't have any other option... i've to unlock it
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
He's got no clue of what u just said lol dude what version update is ur phone on ?
[HTC One S] lbrfabio:
I'm in the same conditions of tobia996(branded vodafone) but I disabled most of the crap apps instead of unlock\root to uninstall them.

However, in the future I'll put cm9 and I was wondering if I have to do something different to unlock\root considering the branded version.

also(a little bit off-topic?), it is possible to flash radio with whatever stock\custom rom without problem?(following this guide)

I asked this last question because I have the 1.78.161 instead of the 1.78.401.2 (currently not available the update on vodafone)
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
Yeah ! you have to unlock it, but dont worry, its easy to relock too !

Its is the same procedure for rooting regardless of branded / unbranded device.

And yes, you can update radio using that method. Make sure the radio is for your region, or you might get signal issues, By that i mean, Dont flash a radio from say a Tmobile US ROM if you live in the UK and vice versa :)

And dont forget, Always have regular nandroid backups ! I cannot stress how important they are. ! :D

[Hardware Hacking General] Rick_1995:
I'm going to use it to write a High performance micro kernel (i will later fix up for cortex-A8, HD2 :D) and for testing the ARMASM code i write, (which i currently test on my only phone, HD2 and it's painful to do so thanks to HTC's SPL, MPU, NAND fatigue and the fact that i need it working the next day).

It has Thumb (2) support so i will try my hand at that too, thumb2 promises quite a lot of code density with somewhat the same performance.

Also I'd be porting the Little Kernel to it, which already has support for cortex-M3
