[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] DroidGnome:
I think I might know why it isn't working for some... I'm curious what Kernel version the successful are running?

I noticed that while my phone is updated with the LF9 ROM, I noticed my Kernel is still dated May 23 (Instead of June 28 like it should be)...

I'm not sure how that happened as i took the OTA update and THEN rooted.. but I'm thinking perhaps that kernel difference might be the reason neither beats nor DSP is working at all on my phone.

EDIT:

Well I've now updated my phone with Sprints newest update (LG2), and confirmed that my Kernel now has a date of Jul 4, like it should....

Ensured that DSP and Beats were removed completely (from the new rom being flashed there was no trace , which was good).

Then I reinstalled Beats per the OP.. This time I no longer got an FX Error message.. I can freely switch between the two.

AND... in Google Music and the "Transparent" music player someone posted a few back, I noticed that if I go into settings and choose "Sound Effects" it takes me right into Beats.

Played with some settings... no sound change at all.

Went back to phone settings and switched back to MusicFX and didn't even have to relaunch the Music apps.. but went back into settings/sound effects as a song was playing and it took me to the MusicFX settings screen.

Played with settings there... WOW major sound changes, it definitely was working...

So went back to music settings and tried Beats once more... back to music apps.. still no change in sound no matter the setting.

So unless someone can tell me they are on a Sprint device with STOCK ROM/KERNEL, then I'm going to have to assume that sprint did something different and that this is not working on this particular device. (Note: Custom ROMs are often built on non-standard frameworks like pure google so it might very well work on a custom rom on Sprint's network... but that is not the same platform as a stock sprint rom.).

For those that have it.. Congrats :) If not.. well MusicFX seems quite fine now that I know how to get into settings.

It just sucks that things like AudioGalaxy, Slacker and others cannot benefit (Guess they have to program for it specifically).

tHIS APP IS AMAZING WORKINS GREAT ON MY SGS3 SKYROCKET i know this is sg3 but thanks alot for it
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] kemtehani:
I am sorry it didn't work for you. Maybe the Sprint kernel is different. I haven't got any update on my SGS3 but it seems to be working. Maybe if you get a chance you can try Poweramp and see if the combination of Beats and Poweramp works.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] kemtehani:
Great. You can definitely post it on SGS2 SKYROCKET forum if you want.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] kemtehani:
I haven't tested on Sprint, you can give it a try. The whole installing, testing and un-installing takes less than 5 min. But according to one of the posts it might not work on Sprint.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] DroidGnome:
I've tried it on a sprint device.. doesn't 'appear' to work (no sound changes), but perhaps I did something wrong.. Please go and try it and report back.

Lots of people are saying it works (not just on XDA) but very few ever mention which Device/Rom they are using...so hard to tell.

See my post a few above yours for everything I've tried...

Did you run into any problems? I can't seem to get it to work on my Verizon S3.

Copied AwsomeBeats.apk to /system/app/, set it 644, ran the installer, it rebooted at the end... But I can't find "Music Effects" in Settings -> Sounds. Does this exist before AwesomeBeats is installed? I'm on the stripped rooted ROM, so if so that might explain it.

I can enable it in the Awesome Beats app, but don't hear a difference in PlayerPro.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] seoulstyle:
I am having this exact same problem. I don't want to switch to the full ROM just to get Beats working. What I'm wondering though, is there a specific system app that is needed in order to make the "Music Effects" menu option appear? Here's a list of all of the apps that were removed from the stripped version. I'll end up playing around, install a few system apps and see if it will make a difference.

EDIT: Took down the list. Why?

MusicFX.apk
MusicFX.odex

Oh hey, what do you know. Just push these and reboot, it should work just fine. Working on Verizon GSIII with stripped/rooted ROM.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] slf123:
Confirm what apps it works with

Hello,

I use Pnantom's Blazer v1.4 on Sprint and it is built into the Rom. The only app that it seems to work with is Google Play Music. There is a selection in the program itself that opens Awesome Beats and it works great.

My question is should it work with any other programs? Such as Itunes radio, Pandora, iHart radio, Jango? None of these programs how anything built into them to adjust sound like Google Play Music does.

If it is not meant to work with not compatible programs then I guess it is working perfect on my phone. But if it is supposed to work with everything then it is not working as the only programs that makes any difference is in Google Play Music.

Can you confirm which apps Awesome Beats is supposed to work with if not all?

Thank you,

SLF
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] DroidGnome:
Just as an FYI, it appears the issue is something with the Sprint Stock ROM after all. I had upgraded to the newest update LG2 and it still wouldn't work, neither would DSP. (Yet the built in MusicFX worked fine).

I've since installed the Blazer ROM , which has Beats Built into it.. and it works just fine now... So while I cannot pin down the exact cause, it's not the hardware sprint used for sure.. Something is obviously different between the Blazer ROM's sound implementation and the stock Sprint ROM (Which I'd expect from a custom rom... )
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] jtcarnes:
I just spent 15 mins trying to even find this setting. It doesn't appear to be in the phone settings, at least not on my VZW SGS3, but it does appear in the settings on SOME music apps. It looks like it's a dev thing whether or not the option appears in the app or not.

I haven't installed the Beats app, but just using the stock EQ makes a huge difference in Play Music...

Working on T mobile S3....After tweeking, dare I say this is as good as voodoo...:D
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] smccall:
Power amp is the way to go. Our phone will never sound like beats there is a lot of lib files involved and software. All this does is boost the bass and make the music distorted. This is just dsp manager with the bass turned all the way up and beats logo slapped on it. Just download dsp manager apk and you will see. Becareful if you do use it this will blow your ear buds and headphones.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] :
But the beats logo is soooooo nice :D

I agree with most of this. Ive blown my cars 6x9's speakers using awesome beats (not ...awesome...'s fault... i pushed it too hard). Poweramp is pretty awesome and its my go to music app. No beats logo tho :(
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] seoulstyle:
I agree with you. It was completely buggy for me. I didn't hear a difference and sometimes it would make the sound very sporadic and weird. I'm using the DSP manager for CM9 now. It's basically the same thing, but actually works. As far as making my music sound better, it's still subjective to me. Here's the thread:

I use Rhapsody (long story, but there it is) and I have noticed no effect since installing this. However, MusicFX is even worse since the controls won't come up in Rhapsody. I installed the zip that was in the Jelly Belly thread. Does this only work with Google PLayer?

I used awesome beats in a rental car this weekend and it sounded better than the radio stations... Used a auxiliary cord and Google Music and I could control base, treble and midst... It is a great product
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] slickdaddy96:
This is kind of unrelated but also related to this app. I know this doesn't work for Sprint's version, but reading through this thread I see that by downloading the CM9 Music player apk I get the option in settings for the Music FX sound effect or equalizer screen.

If I use a 3rd party launcher that supports activities such as Launcher Pro I can set up a shortcut directly to the equalizer screen but that shortcut shows the screen briefly and closes (less than a second). I know that the specific activity is com.androind.musicfx.ActivityMusic . I tried using AnyCut to make a shortcut so I could use TouchWiz and not actually have to load up the Music player since most of my music listening is either the Sirius app, iheartradio or Google Music. In AnyCut it lists things not as descriptive as the LauncherPro Activity Shortcut menu does, so I am picking and guessing where specifically that activity is at. There is no listing for MusicFX, equalizer, ActivityMusic or anything else. Does anyone know where in AnyCut the MusicFX setting menu "Sound Effects" which pulls up the equalizer is located so I can make a shortcut on my stock rooted sprint S3?

I am not interested in using any other launchers.

Edit:

I just figured out that the Equalizer activity is not meant to be opened outside of an app, so that is why it closes. Wish there was a way to directly link it to my home screen, or better yet wish there was a way to get this beats audio to work on the Sprint version.

Edit 2:

Nevermind on the whole question, it seems unless i actually play music through an app that actually incorporates the functions of the equalizer in MusicFX changing those settings with another app running has absolutely no effect to the sound. Guess I will just go back to the third party equalizer app I was using off the market...

I guess be glad it is failing. Don't encrypt if on custom rom, it will become difficult to flash ever again (without a full device wipe) and nandroids won't even work after.

Try going back to stock recovery and see if encryption works. Also, you could try twrp and see if it works there as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
I'll try TWRP first, but if that fails, how do I get stock recovery back? (I'm using the GSM maguro if that makes a difference)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geoffcorey:
To get stock recovery, find your stock 4.0.4 google image and flash the recovery using fastboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
Even with stock recovery it doesn't work.

Edit: Just tried it with CM9 nightly as well, and the same thing happens. I'd really like to get encryption working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geoffcorey:
Try going back to stock 4.0.4 ics and encrypting there. If it works, there are some test recoveries that support encryption and you could possibly flash a custom rom on top of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
Thanks. I'll give it a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
i would advise against that;

check this thread, 2nd post
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
Thanks for the warning but I'm aware of that. The latest TWRP can work with encrypted /sdcard though. Plus if I get stuck, I'm told "fastboot erase userdata" will format /sdcard and remove the encryption.

I got this while replying to a text message...

I've been getting quite alot of these, from even various applications. It's driving me nuts!!!!

Is there any (permanent) solution for this??

ROM: Gummy

Kernel version: 3.1.10_IcyGlitch_V14-BS_I896-I897 antioch@prometheus #1

Baseband version: T959TLJL3

I'd be forever grateful if this problem could be solved... I really love this ROM :(
[Captivate General] simple man:
First I would reboot to recovery, then wipe cache, in advanced wipe dalvik cache, then fix permissions. If the problem comes back , I would back up your apps, msgs, that you want, then, wipe system,cache, wipe data/factory reset, and reflash. Maybe a newer rom.
[Captivate General] aduka:
This is a bug firmware, also sometimes a problem when using swap. I recommend flash newest ROM, they are much better.
[Captivate General] duwii:
I did the first thing you reommended, it didn't work and to make matters worse, ma phone doesn't pass the boot screen....

I quickly rebooted in recovery and made a nandroid backup - followed your second suggestion but i never made a backup of ma msgs because you didn't say so in the 1st suggestion... i can load new roms but can restore from ma nandroid backup :(
[Captivate General] simple man:
When you wipe dalvik cache, your phone can and will take several minutes to reboot, because it's rebuilding the dalvik cache. Secondly, wiping dalvik cache and fixing permissions wouldn't cause your phone to not boot. Between my wife's and my phone, I've flashed Roms, updated, experimented, fixed, stuff, etc... hundreds of times, and never has a dalvik cache wipe / fix permissions caused the phone to not boot. Hesitant to try to help, because you seem to be blaming me..... But if you can't restore a nandroid, it could be you're on a kernel in which the nandroid backup/restore feature doesn't work, you are running an earlier ICS build.
[Captivate General] duwii:
Please elaborate... btw i have a friend tht has the same ROM and doesn't face the same issues like me :/
[Captivate General] duwii:
I'm sorry if i came across like that...

just that the phone is driving me nuts :(

ALSO.... it's the second time i am seeing where reboot take way longer than usual after restoring from a nandroid backup. I av done quite a few and reboot takes less than 10mins. I attempted one the other day and 2hrs 30mins later all i saw was the splash screen and boot animation, phone HOTT!!

This evening again, it looked as if it was going to do the same thing thing... it passed 20mins, i can't sit around waiting for that again :(
[Captivate General] simple man:
It sounds like a flash to stock KK4 (Full Reparation) would be your best bet. If you're already on G. B. bootloaders, I would recommend the NO BOOTLOADER version, no use flashing bootloader unnecessarily. After that, I would flash the rom of your choice, following the instructions in the O. P. line by line.

Maybe a lot more current rom.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
[Captivate General] aduka:
Then I recommend re-flash the stock kk4 NO BOOTLOADER, format the internal sd, install the ROM again and install all the programs manually, not with the nandroid backup.
