The phone was too loud when booting up (too loud to reboot when in school ) so I created an update.zip which disables the sounds at boot time - when the little android pops-up and later at the HTC logo (boot sound).
You should be able to install these whit the cyanogen's recovery image (copy the file to the /sdcard as update.zip, boot the recovery image, apply update.zip and you are done).
* file disable_boot_sound_update-signed.zip disables the boot sounds
* file enable_boot_sound_update-signed.zip reverts it to the stock (re-enables)
The process is done by replacing the /system/media/boot_animation.xml so if you have any custom boot animations/sounds this will possibly override/discard them. You have been warned
If anyone would contribute a new (better/different) boot sound, I can package it into an update.
WARNING: To disable boot sounds on a MoDaCo custom ROM versions 1.2-2.0 use the 1.5.1_bootscreens* files
To disable boot sounds on the 1.79.482.3 firmware or prior please use the disable_boot_sound_update-signed.zip.
Enjoy
Changelog
1.1
MoDaCo custom ROM ver. 1.2-1.5.1 support
1.0
Initial release
Nice... Maybe you can also change it to get and install bootsounds from the SD card? If no sound exist there, then it will be quiet..
If these files exist in /sdcard, use them:
/sdcard/popup.wav
/sdcard/htclogo.wav
Hmmm... must check how to do that with the update script... I know it could be done by a bash/shell script within the system (booted up/no recovery)...
It's actually only one file (boot.mp3) and there are also .gif files for screen animation.
Thnx for this i was so annoying to start the phone in quite places.
very good! it works! thanks dude!

No problem. I am also planing to do it also for the 1.2-1.5 MoDaCo ROM and later for the 2.x branch update.
Sweet! You made my day! I've been trying to solve this and here's the solution. Thx!
I made this change for some weeks ago on my HTC Hero too, but what I made was to split the MP3 file and only keep the Android "blip" sounds when starting up, but removing the LOAD HTC sound. I love my change, it's great
If anyone wants it I've now attached it.
Hi there,
Im using the Sprint CDMA Hero and just put the newly released 'Fresh' Rom on it.
Is there any way you could either make a flash/zip file to disable its sounds or explain how I can create one?
Really appreciate it.
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/app3. Then move the DSPManager.apk to the tmp directory.
mv DSPManager.apk /tmp4. 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/app5. 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?

Hi i re flashed jaggyrom which is fine, its the beats zips that dont work ive tried all of them and reflashed jaggy fresh each time, need help getting beats onto htc explorer as i dont seem to be able to do it,i think im just dumb lol
try fixing it by going to APP2SDGUI and pressing "rebuild" ig if you are experiecning force close of apps.
also, out of curiosity i wanted to know the exact build version of your rom ie jaggy rom 3.x.x
hope this works.
REroblem fixed and solution included
Please note for method included your HTC Explorer/Pico MUST be rooted, and yes HTCdev rooting does work with this.
Hi again, ive now solved and by far improved this issue method follows:
You will need...
Fresh copy of jaggyROM v 3.2.1
HTC Pico/Explorer
Beats audio installer app from google play
search google play or ask Rockodev for the link or search for his beats posts i think the link was in one of them
Beats audio version of google play music (which includes the (b) status bar icon)
ask Gadgetz for the link or look for his mod post
ROOT explorer.
Method...
install root explorer and grant root permission, then look in /system/app and mount r/w then find htc.music.apk and com.htc.music.apk
and long press each of them and select delete, confirm this. you now have the standard music app removed as it causes a conflict.
next copy google play beats edition onto sd card from your pc as it downloads there not on google play open root explorer again and look in /sdcard and long press music2beats.apk select move, then navigate back to /system/app mount r/w and paste.
now for permissions, long press musicbeats2.apk and select permissions
(noob guide) Owner: read [/] write [/] execute [ ], Group: read [/] write [ ] execute [ ], Others: read [/] write [ ] execute [ ].
(NON-noobs) rw-r-r--
this makes the apk appear as play music app in your apps after reboot
now for beats audio installer, this installs the plugins and working audio configs, the actual beats audio experience.
download from google play and open
grant root permission
just follow it through install beats etc etc by rockodev etc etc... once finished it will ask to reboot select yes.
if thid does not result in play music on your apps menu, manual reboot long press power select normal restart, and hey presto it all works even the status icon when playing music (for me at least) any problems im not a dev and so have no tech expertise but there are good people here on xda who can help you, just make a general post like i did.
Thanks to previous poster for thier help and rockodev and motioncoding for the plugin installer on google play
[NOTE: all posts referred are all available on xda already they are merely here as they directly relate to the post and the problems i had, i have supplied this mini guide purely for the purposeof informing any readers who have had the same problem with beats audio on an HTC explorer]
I've searched all forums for a solution to make Viper4Android work on Nexus 9.
None has been working for me without killing Chromecast support.
So I've made two solutions to make it work:
TWRP, Root and Busybox is required!
As system app:
In TWRP install V4A_2.3.3.0_[Quality].zip
Boot Android and open V4A
(Uninstall and) Install driver
Reboot Android
As normal app:
In TWRP install V4A_Conf.zip
Boot Android
Install SELinuxModeChanger and set it for "Permissive" mode
Install V4A
Open V4A and install driver
Reboot Android
I've testet with Google Music and Wimp.
PLEASE hit thanks if this helps you!
If you're on another Lollipop device the tricky part in making the V4A driver stick, is to manually edit the audio_effects.conf on the "Vendor" partition. V4A only writes to the system audio_effects.conf.

I got a similar response with the pure AOSP build, but not with these zips. I used the zips mentioned in the Q&A V4A thread. I think this only works with stock?

I got around to flashing the Super Quality zip and the V4A_conf.zip on the pure AOSP build. NuPlayer in Dev options is disabled and I'm running SELinux in permissive mode. I still can't get the driver to stick.

I had to edit the audio_effects.conf file in the Vendor folder to get the driver to stick. Add the lines in Step 6 of the following link: http://www.hacktabs.com/how-to-impr...ity-with-viper4android-audio-drivers-effects/
Leave out the lines for xhifi and look at the screenshot for the location in the file to add the lines.
After you do this, try to add the driver again, then restart.

I reverted to a backup before I flashed the Super Quality zip.
Which vendor folder? The /system/vendor/ folder that the driver creates or the /vendor/ folder in root? And the .conf file in /system/vendor/ already contains those lines. Even then, the driver won't stick.
If this provides more information, I'm using Dilligaf's kernel. But I'm positive that wouldn't affect the driver installation.
EDIT: Got it. I copied the audio_effects.conf in the /system/vendor/ folder and replaced the one in the /vendor/ folder. Driver sticks now

Good to hear. I'm not sure why some people have to add the lines and others don't.
Hmmm... The /system/vendor folder is just a shortcut to the /vendor/ folder on my device, so it should be the same...?
I'm on pure stock and as I see the posts, the ones having problems is on other roms or kernels.

You're right: I'm running Lollipopalooza ROM. That explains it.
Has anyone got convolver to work? The app sees all my irs files in the kernel folder, just has zero effect. Everything else works for me.

I haven't gotten mine to work either. I just noticed it. However, my Oneplus One has IRS working on 5.0.1. It could be how the driver is behaving?

Igothacked said he was using my kernel/ramdisk, I'm not sure what ROM, but the kernel in my boot.img is completely stock, the only edits were to the ramdisk, and I'm positive that would not effect anything with this. I'm not sure about what Roms were being used, I guess it could make a difference, maybe permissions are slightly different or there is a difference with some symlinks with different roms and stock.
Thanks, also working on stock Acer A1-810 too.
I'm also running theLollipopalooza ROM and had to edit the file manually before the driver would install. All seems to be working fine now though. Thanks☺
Nevermind I re-read
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?
