[MOD] Universal "Beats" \ Audio EQ Add-On

Has anyone gotten the AIO Beats mod to work on the Galaxy Nexus? It installs fine, but appears to do nothing. Anyone else care to share? volume+ just inst cutting it for me.

What for? Beats is just a software EQ, and not even a good one at that. PowerAMP has much more features if you're looking for a software EQ for your music.
Or you can just buy a better set of headphones, then install a custom kernel and enable the high performance audio mode.

No beats is not just software... this mod has lib audio files and bin files... I've used it on my epic and it sounded quite a bit better. Clearer... I have the full deal on my laptop and it blows away my phone with a software EQ.

Beats on phones is just software. Beats on laptops on the other hand has some hardware mods.

Gotcha . That explains some things... but i mean i could definetly tell some difference when i had it on my epic.. things cleared up. Although it could have been mostly placebo. Anyways back on topic... i just tried the samsung version and the original none of which booted... it went to the android is upgrading and then wouldn't finish... just restored my backup and all is fine again. SO nope.. cant use it .

DSP Manager > BEATS imo. And works with not just your music app but also with everything else that uses audio.
IE: Pandora, iHeart Radio, Video player, etc...

Nope.
Beats is the software equalizer. A shielded headphone jack and isolated circuitry are things you can find in any good desktop or laptop sound card, and the fact that they didn't exist in prior HP laptops means HP just has a history of terrible design.

Equalizer > DSP.... but i use both.. DSP for the compression and Equalizer for EQ . I definetly miss my voodoo sound and EQ... but i guess this will do... just doesnt sound the same at least through my speakers.. headphones wise it sounds similar.

Better music player than winamp??

Is there something better than winamp out there? It keeps locking up on me and uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't seem to help. I like the swipe to skip songs feature, so if there's something that has that feature, that would be great.
Any suggestions?

I'm using Apollo. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done plus it has equalizer settings.

Can I get it from the market? The link to download it from the site is blocked here at work.

I used MysteryEmotionz Blacked out Miui Music. Works really well. It's in the old Epic apps area. Zip won't work in recovery, just push apk to system/app.

Poweramp... best there is!

I love player pro

I used apollo for a bit, but the sound quality was not great. i got a lot of distortion. the eq does not work at this moment to my knowledge. mine kept reverting to fx or w.e. its called.
to answer the OP question. Poweramp is the best, hands down. It is a few bucks, but you get what you pay for. The eqing and sound customization is phenomenal. The overall appearance (including the lockscreen) is great as well. Give it a test drive and youll see. I think its a 14 day trial.
edit: i dont use it, but im pretty sure you can swipe to go to the next song in the app and lockscreen

Yes... PowerAmp is awesome.

Poweramp. I believe you can still try it free for 30 days.

poweramp is great, only complaint (big one for me) is that if you use bluetooth for your car stereo, it doesnt pull the song title like the stock music player does

I believe so, atleast for me. like i said, you can give the full trial a go for 14 days

i got poweramp, player pro, and mixzing
i say poweramp, equalizer is better.
but mixzing was cool cuz it would set up a playlist for you and now it doesnt work well anymore.

its unanimous, poweramp. play pro is good too but I didn't like the eq very much

I was having massive winamp problems too and recently found Doubletwist. Its been working really well for the last week or so. It does shoutcast streaming as well, only complaint is that seems to time out and not reconnect to the stream if it drops for any reason.

JetAudio or Poweramp.
I used poweramp for a while but I'm really starting to enjoy JetAudio, it's brand new as well so it can only get better.

poweramp!!!

I just tested jetaudio. it doesnt display song title info from blue tooth on the car radio either

Stock music player and Awesome Beats

I am using Jedi rom and seems like awesome beats only works with this fugly Walkman app.
Is awesome beats suppose to work with other players? Maybe even system wide with video apps and youtube?
I would like to use stock music app with it. Is this even possible?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

I have the same issue.... I just flashes the stock Samsung player. (which in my opinion is a million times better) and the beats audio booster does not work with it... It's a shame because the added bass boost + my audio technical ath m50s makes a killer combo.... Does anyone know how to get it to work on the stock player?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

Yeah, it doesn't seem to work with the Stock Music Player, but it does work with Google music player. You may prefer that to the Walkman app.
I tried awesome beats last night and can't say I'm a fan. The bass boost was horrid, it was way bloated had no definition and sounded awful! At least on my phone.The other settings weren't as bad but still prefer it flat.

Flash Ac!d audio.

I read the thread but it warns not to flash on any rom that has another music app already on it.. What would instructions be to flashing this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

I wasnt expecting too much from it but actually I liked the bass of it. However that walkman app is pain in the back to navigate or add toba playlist etc...
I tried to freeze music fx hoping awesomebeats might replace it but no chance. Still doesnt work.

Guy just flash the purseus kernel and choose the eargasm setting and you will have a eargasm lol.no joke

Can't say I notice a difference between eargasm and flat (disabled). Enabling Stereo expansion did add a little something though. At least it didn't destroy the audio like "Not-So-Awesome" Beats.

[APP] ViPER4Android Audio Effects

I am not the Dev nor I am a paid user. I am just relaying my experience on this app on my I747.
All I have say is that this APP blows everything out of the water. Not just your average Effect processor it goes FAR and beyond.
I can go on about it all, but you guys can click on the link and read more. I now enjoy my S3 for listening to music 300% more.

ViPER's Audio made great improvements in Bass with its dynamic bass system and ViPER Bass. ViPER's Audio also outshines in terms of Clarity with its unique ViPER Clarity and XHiFi technology. Surround sound had never been enough until the presence of field surround, differential surround or haas effect and Virtual Headphone Surround+.
Talking about audio effect, nothing is more significant than convolution. Being the first audio mod to have Convolver makes ViPER's Audio a must for effect lovers. Convolver lets you load technically any impulse response sample you have.

Appreciate you sharing this. I've been trying to install this since u linked it in the PA thread.
If possible, could you give me a little step by step on how you got it up and running?
I'm on Carbon 4.3 nightly.
Did u make any build.prop edits? Are u on the 4.3 version now since it was updated yesterday? Are you running this as a system app? I can get everything installed including drivers, but something is just not installing correctly cause when I make adjustments to the Fire Equalizer there just isn't any change in audio. So something is a miss for me.
Thanks again.

download the 4.3 apk download drop it into system/app 0644 permission reboot then install 9/15 with neon(something like that dont know exact verbatum) reboot again and done , jus make sure any existing audio processor is removed DSP, AWESOMEBeats, KingBeatz etc

This is truly beautiful sounding. With the .IRS files and the ton of options is just like a serious soundgasm.
I also have started listening to even more music.

If you've got an SGS3 then pick the "CortexA8 with NEON" option. That worked for me.
EDIT- quoted the wrong post.

Which music player are u using? For me, using Power amp, I had to disable the EQ, DVC, and Audio Buffer in order for this to work.
Also which ROM? Make sure in sound settings Viper is enabled and if u have DSP in your ROM uninstall it.

Poweramp messed up with Dolby Atmos setting and won't change back after uninstalled..

I just installed PowerAmp because I don't like using Google Play Music. The Poweramp equalizer somehow messed up with the Dolby Atmos, and now I only get one side speaker on when it is on. It is fine if I turn it off tho. Any solution?
Update: Switched to a new one, but it happened again as soon as I installed Amazon Prime Music... I guess there must be something wrong with the latest Dolby Atmos update.

I had to do a factory reset to get my top speaker working again, after a similar experience.
I reinstalled my equalizer app & haven't had the problem return.

I am not so sure how to reinstall the equalizer app because Dolby Atmos is built in to the phone. There is no way to reinstall or remove it.
