[Q] Beats audio problem - HTC One V

HI,
I just had my phone board replaced and now its working fine but I am facing a problem with beats audio. I am getting an option to turn it on/off but am unable to access the beats presets which used to be a drop down option on the top left and included 4-5 presets. I have checked settings-sound-sound enhancer but the only option I find is to toggle beats audio on/off and there seems to be no difference whatsoever in audio quality between the two.

Beats really is a placebo on the phone there's nothing to back it up. Just a line in the kernel that says its compatable to the software. Just download an equalizer on your phone

Have you try to plug your earphone into HOX?
If you listen to music by the phone speaker, beats will not active....
Just to let you know that ARHD was the best rom in HOX... Thank

Of course - stupid me. Was playing the music though the phone speaker and not the headphones.
Thanks.

Loud bass = turning volume down (AUX)

Hey.
Im a very satisfied One X user, and its really a great device, but I've found a bug/problem that is a pain in the ass.
When my phone is connected to my cars stereo (Aux port) and im listening to music from One X music player or youtube, the volume decreases when the bass kick gets loud, why is it doing this?
I have used my Desire and Sensation on the same "setup", and they did'nt make any problems.
Help?
Could be something with sound enhancement settings you use.

Im using Beats, because it gives me the best sound quality I think.
if you use "bass boost" on anything you will lose the higher end sounds and also volume, i would try using a different profile.

Beats is the problem, turn it off.
Beats uses very high compression, to produce a loud sound, this is your problem, get your player out of this dreadful setting, re-adjust your hearing and then enjoy your music!
Sounds like compression, can't say I've heard it that bad on my one x even with beats on though it will notice more on certain types of music, especially some modern music or remastered albums.
Maybe it's a setting in your stereo or choice of player, are you using an FM transmitter plugged into the Aux or any type of input box or is it a straight jack to jack?
Im using a jack cable directly from my One X to my car stereo.
And the type of music im primarily listening to is Hardcore gabber, the hardest type of electronic music.

Beats compresses the hell out of absolutely everything. All it does is EQ the sound a bit, compress everything and add some stereo widening. You're MUCH better disabling it and using PowerAMPs built-in EQ or something, It'll give a much better sound.
Probably best to turn off beats and use a flat eq on the phone and use the eq on your car stereo to get the sound you want.
Or try DSPManager for your phone
head over to my post to install DPSManager allows you more control over the sound then beats

Sound through head phone jack is flat?

I'm running the latest ICS app and I went to hook up Spotify to my stereo using the headphone jack this weekend and it sounds very flat. If I run Spotify from my Galaxy S, or my computer using the same input on my stereo it sounds great.
Has anyone else noticed this? I didn't really find any settings in the tablet itself that would improve this.
Check to make sure Equalizer in Settings is enabled and play around with different sound schemes.

Anyone tried volume+ or DSP manager? The volume is much lower than my SGS II or Galnex over headphones. The EQ seems to just make all the music overly bassy and muffled.
**Edit: Just tested the full version of volume+.. it works...sorta. it gets louder BUT once you se it louder it will not get quieter again by reducing the setting. It sounded OK but the louder it got the more tinny and crackly the sound got. I had to disable it once I got to +20 as it just sounded bad in the opposite direction. The EQ features also didn't seem to have any impact. I didn't want to test DSP manager as I'm at work and goofed off for an hour doing this test. I went back to my Gal Nex as my media player over headphones :-/
Go into settings and set up Dolby sound

Power Beats by Dre mic not working with HTX One X

The HOX has Beats Audio inside but somehow I'm not able to fully use my Power Beats with my phone as the mic work work most of the time. I actually got it to work once after resetting the device with the headset plugged in, but since then, nothing.
The original headset works perfectly, but still I would love to be able to use my regular headset with my phone. Any fix

well it should work without any problems but if you are rooted then you can try this mod:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692233
its effect is system wide and
u can also goto your music and play any song and then click on the 3 dots on top right corner after that you will find an option for sound enhancer
there you can choose beats audio or other options{ may be this option is on stock ROM also} u can try checking it
on and off
Hello all,
After a few more tries, here what I picked up: While plugging my power beats to the One X, the "headset+mic" icon could be replaced by the "headset" icon. When it's the latter, the mic works flawlessly. Whenever the "headset+mic" icon is displayed, then the mic won't work.
Weird, especially when it should at least be the other way around. The question is, what can cause my phone to recognize the same headset as a regular headset or as a headset+mic?

What is your Rom code? I think you are using AT&T or Tegra 3 Chip?
Is everyone aware of most beats (except for HTC editions) are made for iPhone and iPods? That means volume.buttons on there will not work, the Mic might work but since its not native to android there will be some bugs

I can't seem to find the ROM code ... @ZeroInfinity, I understand that and that's why i'd like to pinpoint the bug causing this and hopefully find a fix for it. If it wasn't working altogether I wouldn't even bother. But when it works then don't, I guess there's a logic behind it

Sofware # 2.17.401.2
No actual "rom" section mentionned
I opened a thread about the same problem not so long ago as I searched for a solution and not seen this thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1860611
It only occurred when I updated to 2.17.. On 1.28 before hand the beats worked flawless! Just hope it's fixed in next update (miss my daily music!).. Works sometimes just takes a good few times (unplugging headphone/plugging in headphone) and have give up as i don't want to damage my audio jack!

Related issue. . .
So I have an HTC One X+ and powerbeats. My issues/question is this--can I completely disable the inline remote? Because when I wear mine in the gym, after a while (clearly related to perspiration/moisture) the music player will start to randomly skip to the next track. I love the sound/fit of the headphones but it's unbelievably annoying to have it just start to skip 2-3-4 songs at a time while I'm running! I don't need/use the mic/controls so I'd be happy to just simply turn them off.
Any and all thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

HTC RC e240 issue?

So just bought these HTC RC E240 seeing as they are classed as a HTC ONE accessory on HTC's accessories store but I've noticed that the loudspeakers play music when the headset is connected. They play low, but they are playing either way. I was really surprised to hear audio coming from the headset and the boomsound speakers at the same time.
Does anyone else with this headset have the same issue?
Mine work absolutely fine. When you insert the headset does the headset icon appear on the notification bar?

Yeah the headset icon pops up, and in the settings menu the beats audio section says HTC In Ear. Headphones are clear and work fine for calls etc, but music definitely leaks out of the top speaker. Wondering if I've got a faulty headset since it only happens with these. Hmmmm
Nevermind. Updated to 4.2.2 - Issue has gone
Dear galactacus,
I'd love to ask you something, I bought this hands-free cause the original one came out from the box aren't working anymore, now I am experiencing a strange issue after update to 4.2.2.
Basically when I use this hands-free the sound seems to be better with beats audio not enabled. I don't know why, all the other hands-free works really fine, even the original hands-free from the HTC sensation have better quality and audio while using them than the rc e240
