Default [MOD] HTC Beats Audio for WRE 1.5

Hi everyone,

I'm new to XDA and this is my first thread. I have been using WRE 1.5 on my Sensation XL with great pleasure; even though ROM is amazing the only thing missing for me, was HTC Beats.

I've tried searching XDA forum for a way to install Beats to WRE but to no avail.

Fortunately I managed to do it myself; I pulled out htc.music and htc.beatsnotify apks from ICS + Sense 3.6 and installed them both on my WRE 1.5.

I have attached both apks as a zip file.

Do not try to install them as you do with normal apps as they will not work.

You could use root explorer to add both files in /system/app; don't forget to reboot.

Alternatively you can use adb.

A short tutorial to use adb:

Connect your phone to your pc (make sure debugging mode is on);
Open command prompt and navigate to android-sdk tools folder. (e.i. cd C:/Andoroid-sdk/Tools)
Then type in command prompt:

su
adb remount
adb push com.htc.music.apk /system/app
adb reboot

Do the same for com.htc.HtcBeatsNotify.apk


I tried this method and worked absolutely fine; I have Beats and Beats Notifier on my WRE.

Hope you'll enjoy it.

Below are links to my dropbox to download both apks:

Do not try to install them with any file explorer as will not work.

Instead you can use adb.

A short tutorial to use adb:

Connect your phone to your pc (make sure debugging mode is on);
Open command prompt and navigate to android-sdk tools folder. (e.i. cd C:/Andoroid-sdk/Tools)
Then type in command prompt:

su
adb remount
adb push com.htc.music.apk /system/app
adb reboot

Do the same for com.htc.HtcBeatsNotify.apk

As I am new to XDA I could not post this on development thread; but feel free to do so.
Hope you'll enjoy it.
Brilliant work! Put [MOD] in your thread title mate. People will come here then. Also maybe PM the Forum Moderator who could move this for you.



She's up all night 'til the sun,
I'm up all night to get some,
She's up all night for good fun,
I'm up all night to get lucky

Thanks for your suggestions; I've changed the title and PM the moderator.

Also I have attached a zip file as the links to dropbox weren't working.

XDA is about developing and is for developers. Any user that recognises that will gain the most benefit from this site


 
This is and always will be a site for developers, pure and simple. Without them we are nothing, without them there would be no reason for XDA Developers to exist; we should never ever forget that. Without them this place would not be called XDA-Developers but something else, e.g Mobile Phone User Support Services For Ungrateful Nerds.

Adb push commands listed are same as using root explorer and copying apks there. After reboot it should be fine. If you can get apk signed then will install as normal apps do without need for push via Adb or root exp. Drops apks into /system/app then reboot is same as adb push /system/apps. Same thing done differently

Thanks for that. It makes sense now as I've tried root explorer myself but possibly forgot to reboot. Will edit the post so people will know that works with root explorer.
