[REQ] Beats Audio Hack - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

^^ Anyway to port over BEats to SG2?

No.
Why would you want Beats when the audio on this thing is already decent enough without it...

Beats is basically just an equalizer. The closest thing you'll get to it (and its pretty damn close) is downloading Volume+ from the market. It's a louder volume hack and it has a Beats equalizer option. I've been using the app since before it was released on the market and it is amazing.
I'm pretty sure you can Google it and get the app for free from the developers website (Meltus) but if you like it, maybe buy the market version. He's an awesome dev!
And no, I'm in no way affiliated with the guy I'm just giving my opinion. Here's the link if you'd like to give it a whirl. http://androidaudiohacks.com/?p=158

I agree beats audio is just another equalizer. Have it on my Sensation and its not that impressive.

Have it on my Sensation as well. Its decent but I use Playerpro with DSP and Equalizer app on my Galaxy S2 and that surpasses Beats Audio.

I'm running Tuesday which has the bravia xloud working with Power Amp. The sound quality is great. I use it everyday in my car.

Beats = DSP Manager = Power AMP

[Q] Beats Audio?

What happened to the Beats Audio .zip that you could flash?? It's been removed from everywhere!?
I would love that for this device right now. but maybe HTC finally got to the zip and issued c&d orders. I may be wrong though

Had it on my device or a bit, made absolutely no difference in audio quality through quality headphones. Imo, Beats on a phone is a cheap gimmick and nothing more. Nobody buys phones for superior audio, nobody builds a phone with high end audio in mind, and if you know even a little bit about quality audio components, the Beats name is not in your vocabulary.
If I can get to a computer sometime soon I'll get the flashable zip for our device, if it's not against the rules.

Just use DSP manager and enable Bass Boost and enable Equalizer and use Bass Booster preset. Voila, Beats Audio.
Does dsp manager work?

Beats audio in non stock player

Hi.
Is there a way to get beats working with player pro? Reason is I really dislike the stock music player and find it poorly designed. Player pro is perfect for me but the beats audio doesn't have any effect.

I would love to know if this is possible!
I am using PowerAmp and the beats are working,probably that it isn't working with all players.Try to check if you didn't disable it.

I'm also using PowerAmp but in PowerAmp you have the ability to disabled DVC (Direct Volume Control) thereby enabling Beats.
Not sure if there is an option like that in PlayerPro
I know there's a few ROMs that have enabled system wide Beats.
As well as PowerAmp, UberMusic also works with BeatsAudio.
I have Player Pro it works fine with Beats. I also using Extreme Sound Enhancer 10.0. If it's not check under the Settings > Audio there you should fine an option something like use ROM sound setting or something like that. Don't have my phone with me to check
Beats and other audio effects are system wide, poweramp does not seem to like beats very much, you can enable sound effects in settings>sound>sound enhancer but the audio effects can only be enabled with headphones.

I have extrme audio as well but I don't see any settings. Can you check on your phone ?

So far I am satisfied with the quality of the sound played with stock player. Bass and treble are perfectly balanced in my ears.

Beasts audio & voodoo removal help

I recently installed beats audio and voodoo sound boost. My phone is simply waaaay to loud and beats audio DOEs not sound like beats audio. No matter how much I flash roms and reset my phone I can still tell the difference. How do I go about discontinuing the effects of both apps?

I'm using Equalizer with Skullcandy Hesh headphones, the boost in audio is very noticible and it offers presets along with effects like bass booster and virtualizer.

Best Audio Mod for LGOG

There are quite a couple of audio mods for the LGOG, I would like to know which one do you guys prefer best?
I currently have the Beat audio mod but I only chose this I had great experience with this mod before.
Are the other mods any better?
Please share your comments.

I found that incorporating the beats Audio scripted in my old s2 always outrageously distorted the bass, even while using beats Audio headphones. Now I just use power amp and it does the trick

I tried so many mods like acid and beat but the best so far is power amp like kmull4 said. You get powerful bass and rich highs. It actually adds more power to those Hz.
I've only used Acid +nooxide and love it. As long as you don't push the effects too hard. The" wider" sound option is actually achieved by manipulating phase coherency which if overdone will result in some may nasty sounding audio. I'm curious about power amp. Are you guys dust using the built in eq settings on the app?
Ps: I'm an audio engineer so I'm always looking for the best sound possible
Yeah built in. Way better than DPS manager

For me yes. I've used a lot of music apps and I feel that this is the best one. Although in your case being an audio engineer, you might want to check out jet audio in the play store. It has more options to change the sound.

Are you really surprised that Beats distorts bass with all the artificial bass added in for no reason in the first place?

Lol no I'm not, but I read that some people claimed it gave them better clarity. Unfortunately that wasn't the case for me

Thanks for the heads up on jet. I'll check that it out for sure. The ui is kinda meh though but that's secondary to the sound IMO. I am really digging noozy player. Especially the podcast section. That's a nice feature.

I have really good headphones that support a high current/voltage. I put up the dB on the DPS manager and it gets distorted. With the poweramp it does make the freq. more clear and powerful.
Poweramp and good headphones are all I've needed for clarity. Even without fiddling with EQ the clarity is good.
