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?

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]

Cannot install system apps

I've spent hours upon hours working on this phone, and i've tried basically every solution I could find:
Below I'll type a more detailed list of troubleshooting i've tried but currently my main issue is that I deleted my systems.apk file, after trying a recovery none of the files in my system/app folder are actually installed and if i try to install them it tells me I can't because they aren't market apps, but because I have no settings menu I can't allow non market apps to be installed. If I can find a way to install non-market apps without selecting the option from the settings menu I might be able to solve this issue.
More information:
This is an "old" phone that i recently turned on to used and found it was full of bloatware, adware apps so I rooted to delete some of it and it seems in the process I managed to delete the settings.apk file. I installed CWM & rom manager, tried to run a recovery through that (Can not run a factory reset because i have no settings menu and the hard reset does not work) and when I booted up my phone, I kept getting an error message that vzw setup wizard stopped unexpectedly, the only option was force close and as soon as I hit it it would come back up. eventually someone texted me and I realized when I had a notification and plugged in my phone I could get to the text message-through the text message menu I added my gmail account, and emailed myself the google play store URL and was able to gain access to the store. Using the store I installed Go Lancher EX and then had an (almost) functioning phone- I have to be careful not to back out of Go launcher or I'll have to send myself an email so I can get back into the store and finally back into go launcher. I had my boyfriend send me the settings.apk file from his phone, and could not copy it into settings/apps because it was read-only, so i tried downloading an app that would allow me to change permissions and realized it would not install any .apk files. I then started selecting some of the apps already in system/apps and none of them are installed- It will not let me install them because they are not technically market apps.
Other things I tried:
SUES: Tells me my phone is up to date and will not do anything more.
PC companion: Tells me there is no software available for my device.
Android commander: Gets stuck on "loading" and won't actually start up.
Flash tool: Tried two different stock ROMS, always gives me this error message: "Sin header verification failed" (Yes, I selected the option to not do a final verification"
How can I force my phone to install the system apps ?

Look for a developer who can make a flashable zip including system.apk and setting.apk for you, then flash it from CWM.

I tried flashing two .ftf files, flashtools gives me the "sin header verification failed" error message. I'm unfamiliar with flashable zips- will that get around my flashtools problem? Should I send you just settings.apk and systemUI.apk?
Thank you !
Edit:
I've done some reading about flashable zips and it seems pretty promising, thank you!
I've attatched a zip file with systemui.apk from my phone and settings.apk from my boyfriends phone- he doesn't have an xperia play, if that makes a difference.
Also, I don't know how much of an effect this would have with flash tools but because I can't get into my settings, I also can't turn on USB debugging.

Hey guys. I have coded and put together a .zip files that includes the latest Beats 2.0 drivers and DSP Manager V2.
The beats audio drivers install perfectly on my phone but i cant seem to get DSP Manager to install. If you would like to check the zip out and see what the issue is and help me out. Im completely stumped on this. I put the apk in /system/app and i also added all the other files for it in the other folders.
It flashes and reboots (trust me NO BRICKS lol). If you can get it to work please help me out.
Thanks in advanced!
