Ok so there are many people on the Desire HD/Inspire 4G forums looking for a Mod that can enable the beats audio on their devices....I have ran into several differnt ideas but considering the fact that i have absolutly no experience with developing anything, i can't do this...but i am hoping that a couple developers can help us out....


The General Idea​

The general idea actually sounds legit, its based off the fact that the software is what makes the beats feature what it is, just like the SRS/DOLBY Digital and many more Sound Enhancers, but what i was thinking is that the Beats Feature is just a few tweaks based off these features, they add a little bass here and a little treble there, oh and why not lets raise the vocals a little....so what i'm thinking is that we have a feature already that can act as a base and all we need is a friendly developer that can modify these bass,treble,vocals,etc. values or even show us how to modify these values ourselves so that we can make our own "Enhancer".....Sounds good right?? or maybe we can find a dev that can modify the beats feature to work on our devices....

ANY IDEAS???? Throw Them down, this thread is just for the Beats/Music Features and any questions you have about it (try and save some forums from answering 8 million questions about the feature)

Different Ways Of Getting Beats To Work Floating Around​

BEATS AUDIO-Flashable ZIP, MODIFIED BY IN-Freak/FASTER STARTUP, WITHOUT SKIPPING SONGS​

http://www.mediafire.com/?382u5cyyy8a1fpa

v 0.2 released!---09/18/2011

Changelog:

-More small fixes (maybe better performance)
-improved the request if there is a beats headset, so music player only switch once before playing a song (after the first try/start the music player doesn't switch between the songs, even if you plug out your headset and then plug it in!)
-Sounds is a little bit better for me now, but it could be that im not enough objective (need to be tested!)

btw, the new file is a lttle bit smaller

Try it and tell us how it works.....

Kinda sad that the beats dosen't work.... It had me tricked, but going back I realized the reason I was fooled was because I was using the Volume+ Equalizer.

I will go over the Files for the sensation to see if there is anyway to get it working for the DHD....


BTW... Links for any1 else interested is located here:

i believe these mods are for the htcmusic app....so it will work on pre-sensation roms....but new roms with sense 3.0-3.5 use htclisten....so unless the underline code is the same i don't think this will work...does anyone know how i can rip apart the apk and look and see what i find....

I get underlined text from this mods HTCMusic. Method do nothing. Sensation roms can't support beats at all. Only one port from runny (HTCListen) try set beats properly, but it now not working on Desire HD. You can use apktool for disassemble apk.

HtcBeatsNotify only show gray or red beats icon in notification bar nothing more.
When HTCListen try set beats his send signal to HtcBeatsNotify, icons show, but sound system crashing and beats not working.

    IM RUNNING RUNNY BASED ROM FROM RC TEAM AND BEATS WORKS BUT AFTER SOME TESTING SRS ACTUALLY SOUNDS BETTER THAN THE BEATS SOFTWARE.

    I TESTED USING MANHAIM STEAM ROLLERS FRESH AIR SONGS WITH THE HTC MUSIC APP AND SKULL CANDIES TITANIUM EAR BUDS.

    BEATS SOUNDED FULLER THAN STOCK HTC ALONG WITH EXCELLENT BASS AND HIGHS.
    MIDS ARE SOMEWHAT MUDDLED AND CEILING IS NOT THAT HIGH.

    I FOUND SRS BETTER SOUNDING THAN BEATS ( ARD 6.1). SMOOTHER
    BASS CRISP MIDS AND HIGHS.

    MY PREFERENCE FOR SOUND IS SRS ALONG WITH POWERAMP PRO. MUCH MORE TWEAKS AND OPTIONS YOU CAN CHOOSE SRS, DOHLBY OR NONE AND EQUALIZER AND PRE AMP GIVE U SOUND FAR SUPERIOR.

    IF BEATS HAD CUSTOM EQ AND PRE AMP MAYBE IT COUL SOUND BETTER. OR IF POWERAMP COULD USE THE BEATS ENGINE THA WOULD BE SOMETHING TO WATCH.

    MI OPINION, ON THE HTC MUSIC APP ANYWAY, SRS

    First try guys :)
    I tweaked the HtcMusic smali in HtcListen...
    Just push the HtcListen.apk file with root explorer or adb in system/app und change the permissions!
    Always do a backup first, for me the new file works but its safer if you do a backup first.

    But atm i dont know if the sound is better, please tell me if it is for you and beats is working ;)

    enjoy!
