DSP Manager: how to?

In several places in the forums I see DSP manager mentioned as a way to change the sound output from the phone.
It is possible to use the .apk file or flash the .zip file to a stock firmware that is rooted (no other changes), or does it have to be applied to a custom rom?
Ta.

Here you go...

Flash as you would a ROM

Hmm, I flashed it and the settings appeared, but they seem to make no difference to the sound output!

Trying via headphones? As I doubt you'd notice from the internal speaker
Other than that I can't help, have no issues personally

Yep, trying via headphones. Seems to make no difference at all. I am running a stock rooted HTC Rom.

Hi, I flashed the DSP from recovery and rebooted. Installation was successful but I can't find the app anywhere in my phone? where do I see it?

For anyone else having this problem:
I didn't find the app I installed so I searched the net for other installation files, and found this:
h ttp://androidforums.com/1446319-post107.html
after I flashed this and rebooted, I got a 'force close' notification for the app. Than I went to /system/app/DSPManager.apk and installed it.
DSP Manager now working great ^^

I did as u said but it gives me a force close and when i try to install it i cant cause its already installed, cant uninstall it either, what should i do ? BTW I'm using AuraxTSense v7.4

did you install the one in the second post as well?
I'm using AuraxTSense 7.0

Yes, first I installed that one, it didn't work, then I installed the other. Is that the problem ? I thought so... so how should I fix it ?

good question..I'm not sure.. try installing the first again

Ok I did it, it removed the app from the app list. What now ? If I try installing it from /system/app it gives an error.

I don't know.. i just rebooted my device and it gave me the force close again. so I did what I did the previous time and ran that app from the location I wrote.. worked like a charm.. again..

I installed the other zip again, gave me a force close so went to system/app and tried to install it but I can't, only have the options uninstall and launch... No idea why is it working for you and not for me...
EDIT: Ok it works now, had to remove first the odex file and install the other zip again

Update DSP Manager
You can remove the DSPManager.apk file using the terminal emulator.
NOTE: You need to have a rooted phone, Superuser & Terminal emulator.
STEPS
1. Change to root user it is granted super-user permissions.
su -​2. Then change to the system app directory.
cd /system/app​3. Then move the DSPManager.apk to the tmp directory.
mv DSPManager.apk /tmp​4. Move the new apk file to the system app directory.
NOTE: Change to the directory where the DSPManager_1.0.apk is.
cp DSPManager_1.0.apk /system/app​5. Reboot the phone.
6. Check in the apps list and the new DSP Manager should be in there.
NOTE: If it all worked you can remove the DSPManager.apk from /tmp
rm /tmp/DSPManager.apk​
Attached is the version I use on my rooted HTC Desire.

In order to work, DSP Manager also needs a file called libaudioflinger.so in the /system/lib directory in addition to the apk.
The easy way to get this done is to use an update zip for DSP Manager. Get it from one of these links (all links from this page):

I don't think you can install the zip from Astro Explorer because it needs to copy files to the /system partition which is read-only when the phone is booted up. In other words, you must have a rooted phone to do this.
If you do have a rooted phone, then reboot into recovery mode and install the update.zip the usual way.
If you don't have a rooted phone, well that's a whole different story.

i , please help me.
I've installed it via recovery and I made backup with my original needly files: libaudioflinger and libaudio. Then i copied my files back (deleted new files and moved old files) . I restarted my phone and it didn't boot. Just show me the White window (T-mobile)... Can i repair my phone by myself? Please help me and sorry for my english.

I'm sorry I don't really understand the problem. Normally, installing the update.zip should be all that you need to do. I don't understand why you copied the old files back and were those two files the only files that you backed up?

Remove System Apps, Bootanimation, format with root...

Hello All,
I got root with surdu_petru's modified firmware (Stock ICS w/ root) for my 80 G9 and have the following q's which I couldn't find answers to by searching:
1. I tried deleting different system apps with root explorer that I don't need (Email, Youtube) and get the "Failed to delete" message. Why is it not working?
2. Once rooted, how do you format/clear all data without losing root? I tried it once and got into a boot loop and had to reflash the stock firmware and then the rooted one once more...
3. Is it possible/safe to remove the bootanimation to speed up the booting process? The latest Cyanogen Mod version on my phone allows this...
Thanks!

1. Are you sure the app really has the permissions? Check that the root is working with root checker.
2. You can do this 2 different ways:
1. Delete all folders from /data except the folders where the ROM is.
2. Follow AOKP install guide, but instead of transferring aokp ROM, transfer the ROM you use , and change the location to transfer to correct for the ROM. No need to reflash kernel.
3. You can remove it in AOKP and CM, but removing it doesn't help in this tablet. I don't think it can be removed. It can only be replaced. Otherwise the ROM will recreate it.

1. Which app has what permissions? Root Browser or the app I want to get rid of?
- When I long press an app and click properties, it says "Permissions: N/A"
- The Root Check Basic app says that I have root access.
2. /data is void of any files... What is AOKP?
Thanks!

1. Sorry, but i don't know whats wrong then. Maybe you can install ES file explorer, enable root from setting and try deleting the with it?
2. Aokp is a rom. Its install includes deleting files and moving the rom after that.

1. Make sure your Ascend G330D rooted. This is must be request.
2.Find 2 or 3 apk:
a>GoogleServicesFramework(Check your phone via RE explorer)
b>GoogleLoginService
c>Google play store(lastest version is better)
3.Copy those 2 or 3 apps to your phone(Internal or Extend are ok)

So I solved my problem with the Xperia S LT26i Chinese:
I found the rom ITA LT26i_6.1.A.2.50_1257-5499_Generic_Italy.zip
and I installed it with flashtool
It was very simple
I did not understand if the device is rooted now
Now the device is fully Italian as if I had bought in my country
Ciao!

Changing file permissions was critical
Thanks for the information and the attachments xjarl!
This worked perfectly for me, but only after I changed the permissions on the 3 files! I bought a Coolpad (Yulong) 8022 with Android 2.3.7 in China through China Mobile. I rooted the phone but was unable to install Google Play until I found this post. I downloaded the attachment, extracted the files and copied the 3 APK files to my system/app folder and rebooted. After installing Google Play and running it, I could browse all the apps in the store but I could not download or install them. The progress bar didn't move.
So I launched Root Explorer and went to the system/app folder. Then I changed the permissions of the 3 APKs: GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk to rw-r--r-- to match all the other files in the folder and rebooted. Since then everything has been working fine! Now I can browse the App store and download and install files without a problem!
So, the steps I recommend are:
1. Root your phone.
2. Download the attachment above.
3. Extract GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk from the RAR file and copy them to the system/app folder on your phone with Root Explorer.
4. In Root Explorer click Mount R/W. Change the permissions of the 3 files to match the permissions of the other files in the folder (rw-r--r--). Then click Mount R/O and exit Root Explorer.
5. Reboot your phone.
6. Go to Accounts & Sync in your phone's settings, click Add account and enter your Google/GMail account details.
7. Go to your apps and Launch Google Play.
I'm guessing that this will work on any Android phone. Good luck!

Thanks for shared.
I get the same problems, but my phone use Spreadtrum CPU SC6820 and it very hard to root.
If not root then can use this solution?

Hi - I believe you will need to root your phone first - I used SuperOneClick to root my phone. I wish you good luck!

It is a very good solution and I tested in my China mobile Note2: GT-N7108 and it works fine.
Thank you very much.

Crashing
I hope someone can help me here. I have a Green Orange N1.
The first thing i tried was to simply install vending apk.
App was crashing before loading.
I tried this method and followed all steps
Root - adding 3 apk to system/app - set permissions- but no luck. Google play still crashes.
I tried also with different G Play versions and still i can't access the application.
Do you have any idea about other steps?

I got it working by downloading different versions of GoogleServicesFramework
i have found 3 versions on the first page searching for GoogleServicesFramework.apk on google
One of them was 2.3M not 4M and it worked. i have also downloaded different GoogleLoginService
Now all google apps work perfectly except for voice search... looks like it doesn't connect.
I can give commands and it keeps searching. don't know if it depends on the GoogleLoginService i installed.
My solution is probably messing up something.
It would be really nice to know which versions of Framework or LoginServices are available andhow to choose the right ones for 4.2 or 4.1.
hope someone can explain here

This kinda works with a bit of play around
These files are KING!!!!
This method works if you root your phone!
I rooted my phone(Samsung Galaxy S4) bought from China loaded with spam and bloatware. The phone by default has a whole load of crap installed into the system apps folder and can't be deleted unless rooted!!!
I rooted using:
Odin3 v3.07
cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar
Google_play.rar
SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1_3_2300_0
System App Remover
Root Explorer
Step 1: Put phone in USB debugging mode in order for ODIN to successfully detect and install 'cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar'
Step 2: Power phone on holding Volume Down, Menu Button and Power Button. (This put it in download mode)
Step 3: Plug phone into PC(Ensure USB drivers have been installed)
Step 4: Open ODIN
Step 5: Select PDA and locate 'cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar'
Step 6: Click Start (Sit back it takes a few)
Step 7: Once completed immediately unplug battery before phone restarts.(This apparently ensures the CWM will root the phone for S4 new security)
Step 8: Power phone on using Volume Up, Menu Button and Power Button.
Step 9: Root phone option
Step 10: Install from SD card
Step 11: Select the CWM option
Step 12: Restart phone from the options
Step 13 : Super User app should now be installed on the phone
Step 14 : Given that you can't access google play you may need to download apps via pc or web browser on your mobile.
Step 15 : Download the following apps a) Root Explorer b) System App Remover.
Step 14 : Be smart and write down the names of the apps you need to remove and take note of the icons.
Step 15 : Delete what you can through System App Remover (Some will not delete through this app but you'll understand a little later)
Step 16 : Once you've deleted what you can, open Root explorer.
Step 17 : Copy the Google Play files (There are 3) into a directory you can find on your phone.
Step 18 : These files should be stored on SD in Root Explorer, Tap Hold and Move.
Step 19 : Go to System then Apps.
Step 20 : Paste and extract the folder.
Step 21 : Delete the remaining apps that System App Remover couldn't remove.( be careful deleting the wrong apps can be troublesome)
Step 22: NB!!!! Change the permissions on theses 3 apps to all permissions or your phone will keep bringing up alerts and freezing!!!!!
Step 23 : In any event copying the framework from another device you will be forced to do a Factory Reset to have it all fully functional!!!!
This worked for me. Thought I'd put the full list of instructions because it took me a few hours to gather all this info from a mix of sites.
All credit to everyone I resourced to finally get this working!!! This seems to have been an unresolved one on many sites with no tutorials for newbs.

How to install Xposed Framework on the Huawei GX8/G8.

I was curious to know to how xposed framework can be installed on the Huawei GX8 so I went through different sites to find at least an easy way to do that but honestly i didn't find any easy steps. They are more or less complicated depending on the individual attempting the procedure. ok
It is advised to take complete backup before deodexing so that you can replace the deodexed apps with the odexed backups in case you face some Apps crashing. Deodexing is important in order to make xposed framework install successfully and use some modules as well.
Warning: You attempt this procedure at your own risk, bare in mind that I will not be held responsible if you brick your device for attempting this procedure.
Prerequisites:
Rooted device.
Fully functional TWRP recovery or any other recovery with File manager support.
Backup all your data & apps.
Download this APP for deodexing:https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0BwSanb5zBfFiaHN5MGV2ZnFqcVU&export=download
Deodexing the ROM:
Step 1: Extract the BatchAPKTool to your preferred location.
Step 2: Open BatchAPKTool.exe. Set Language to English when prompted.
Step 3: The tool will now ask you to chose task.
Step 4: Type 83 and set smali version to smali-2.1.2.jar by entering 2. Now type 84 and set Android API level to 21 (Android 5.0), 22 (Android 5.1.1) or 23 (Android 6.0). This value must match with the firmware you have currently installed on your device.
Step 5: Now connect your device to PC. Make sure USB Debugging Mode is enabled and necessary Huawei Drivers are installed.
Step 6: In BatchAPKTool window, type 13 and then enter 4. This will pull all files from /system/app , /system/framework , /system/priv-app from your device. This may take some time so wait patiently. (You might also do it manually using Root Explorer)
Step 7: Once it’s done press Enter to return to main BatchAPKTool Menu.
Step 8: We’ll now deodex the apps. Enter 01 in the tool. It will now ask you for your ARM version. Enter “arm” and press Enter. Wait for the process to be completed.
Step 9: In the directory where you have extracted BatchAPKTool, you’ll find three folders named _priv-app, _app and _framework. Remove the underscore from the folder names so that they are now priv-app, app and framework respectively.
Step 10: Create a new SYSTEM FOLDER and name it DEODEXED SYSTEM and copy those three folders inside it. Now copy the System folder to your SD card or Internal Memory.
Replacing Odexed Apps with Deodexed Apps:
1: Boot your device into recovery and backup System partition
2: Using the built in file manager in recovery, delete the app, framework and priv-app folders from your system partition.
VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure that in twrp in the "Mount" section the "Only mount system read-only" is unchecked in order to copy the files to system.
3: Now copy the app, framework and priv-app folders from system folder (which we copied to SD card or Internal) and paste them to the SYSTEM partition i.e. /system/
4: When done, reboot your device. First boot will be extremely long. Might take 20-30 minutes so be patient.
ALTERNATE METHOD:
NOTE: It may not be possible to copy files from one folder to another in recovery mode, so this is what i did...
1. Create a NEW FOLDER in your internal memory and name it ORIGINAL SYSTEM.
2. Copy PRIV-APP, APP and FRAMEWORK from the ORIGINAL SYSTEM FOLDER and paste it in the ORIGINAL SYSTEM FOLDER in the memory of your device.
3. Now copy the THREE files in the DEODEXED SYSTEM FOLDER to the ORIGINAL SYSTEM FOLDER in the root of your device.
4. Your device will reboot immediately the files are copied. The boot may take 20-30 minutes so be PATIENT..
Installing Xposed Framework.
1. Go to the official thread and download the latest version(xposed-v86-sdk23-arm64) for Marshmallow
2. Download the apk and the uninstaller arm zip just in case anything goes sideways you can flash the uninstaller to unistall xposed framework.
3. Install the apk file and flash the v80-sdk23-arm zip in recovery. Again device might take 20-30 minutes to boot.
4. For Android 6.0:
Open build.prop
add these lines ro.config.hwtheme=0
ro.config.hw_theme=0
For Android 5.0-5.1.1:
Open local.prop (in system/emui/base/prop/local.prop)
add these lines ro.config.hwtheme=0
ro.config.hw_theme=0
The commands is to ACTIVATE the framework.

How to Enable Viper with Stock Rooted Android 7

Various links in Google world. Some worked. Others had issues. To keep this simple I am going to attach two files to use. This is based on the use of Magisk for rooting your setup. It does NOT work if you are only using SuperUser. The mods that stated how to do this with SU did NOT work for me, so I will not include anything with regards to that. Again, this is working for me with latest just posted Android 7 firmware for my SM-G925T and rooted with Magisk and TWRP recovery installed. Please don't ask if you are not rooted or no TWRP or whatever. They ARE required and Magisk is required too. Plus go to Playstore and make sure BusyBox is installed. I would also uninstall any prior versions of Viper prior to doing this. Or use Titanium BU to delete so as NOT to have competing files. After the above, take the attached file audio_effects.conf and replace the one located in your system\etc folder. The file is zipped simply to allow uploading. This is NOT installable from recovery. Simply unzip to use the conf file. Disregard the backup file in this zipped upload. The .bak is not needed. You will need an app like root explorer to do this. Make sure you set the file permissions the same as the app you are replacing. This is important. Permissions must be the correct same as the original file. Finally...take the attached v4afx_v1.4 zip and install from TWRP recovery. Reboot and should be good to go. If done correctly the left menu in viper that shows driver status will show everything processing, enabled, and working when Viper is ON and music is playing

Added webcam shot showing driver status. A screen shot would remove that window showing driver status.

Do you randomly lose root after this install?
