I personally didn't think beats was all that great but alot of users like it so i made this flashable version for my rom. Figure everyone else would enjoy it as well. It does replace some files though such as services.jar and framework.jar. I have only tested it with my rom but it should work with any rom but i suggest making a nandroid backup just in case.
This is the full beats with icons and eveything
Now with HotSpot working (Thanks Leoisright)
Sense Roms ONLY
Anyways just flash it in recovery and enjoy
Now has universal updater-script so it can be flashed on any device But probably will not work so try at your own risk !!
A few have reported that it flashes on other devices and it boots so it may just work on some.
This is developed for the Evo 3D it is on the portal and because of my title it says for ANY Sense rom but it was made for the 3d. but if you want to try it on other devices i strongly recommend a nandroid backup before testing. I'll be looking into the possibility of multiple devices soon. Sorry for the confusion..
If you are getting FC with Music try the FC-FIX and see if it works and post if it did or not. I am trying to figure out what the problem is

I'm currently running gingeritis 3D and Chingy ported this over in his ROM, now I hear a slight difference but i assume by HTC it was made to best be heard using beats earphones/headphones. Have you tried this and confirmed it working?

Yeah. most are saying its best used with Beats headphones. But those already have amplified bass. So I dunno if they are just thinking it works better or not.
I cant flash it on my phone (well not yet at least) the stock music player wont load on my. I broke it somehow. . I do however own a set of very nice headphones that are better audio quality than 'Beats' but cant test the new audio stuff yet... Would be nice to get a little deeper bass with stock music app (once I reflash a clean ROM)
What difference did you notice?

a very slight difference on stock ported gingeritis, but when time permits I'll make a backup and flash this and test it out. Hope someone has tried or is trying this and keep us informed, I also read from adrynalyne that 95% of the beats ports where fake so...I'm not sure if this on a software level or if this includes hardware.

Most people commenting in the original thread are saying they hear a difference. But it might be all in their head.
As far as trying this out, he stated this was is based off desire HD roms because of the sense 3.0. And Im pretty sure our roms are also based off the Desire HD rom for the sense 3.0. So theoretically it should work... but we all know how well those go... Hense all the warnings i put in the OP.

All it is is some compression and.altered eq...maybe a bit of gain....on a pair of studio monitors it.makes everything sound ****ty but for a pair of cheapo headphones it might have some benefit, I also noticed it accentuated audio clicks, glitches, things that overshadow the whole objective of the app/dsp in the first place.

This is kind of useless unless you have a beats optimized output device
You should have killed me, when you had the chance

Go to the software part, it tells you pretty much what "beats audio" does to the output. That being said, I have a pair of beats pro's and *maybe* noticed a tiny difference at the most. Most likely all this does is take the stock EQ and bump it up in certain places, if it actually does anything at all.

No go on synergy r267. Shows install went ok. Cleared davlik and cache.

that made me LOL. Beats optimized output device...? So... over priced headphones?
I tried the beat mod on chingys Gingeritis. It does slightly increase the mid bass. That was the most noticeable change, well besides the fact it also greatly increases the hi's so the sound doesn't become muddy. And as stated before you will definitely hear crackling on max volume.
I have played audio out both to my car stereo via head phone jack and to my headphones (definitely not cheapys, and better than any "optimized beats equipment") Its all the same noticeable difference. I haven't tried on my cheap ear buds yet, but will give them a good run tomorrow when I take my street bike out for a Sunday put put.
Using this mod does disable the stock EQ that is built into htc music app. or at least it did on my phone.
I will officially classify this mod as 80% hype and 20% function.

If you have anything professional you wont need to eq anything that was recorded and mastered properly. I promise.

Its not like I need more bass or high end out of a radiohead album, the Guy who's best at deciding the equal of everything already determined that. All of this post processing bull**** is just to make wank headphones sound "Fuller" "richer" but by no means more accurate, and to be honest a complete waste of CPU.

I wrote this on rootz, figured I would share it here too.
People seem to forget what beats are about. They don't make the music sound "better" they make it sound "clearer". You want "better" sounding music then yes, the others do a good job of that. But if you want to hear the music, how it sounds to artists in a studio, without extra filters, eq's, etc. put on by Bose, Sony, and the other manufacturers, then Beats are the way to go. I'm going to guess none of you have ever been inside a real studio (not your friend's basment with a mic and a padded wall, that isn't a studio) so you saying that beats don't do this, and are all marketing bs, don't really know what you are talking about.
I have had the Solos, sold them and got the Studio's, and sold them and now have the Pro's and I can say I have never heard music clearer before than I have with these. Want to know why the base sounds "deeper" or the treble is "louder" with other headphones? Because that's how they are made. Beats are made to sound exactly how the artist made the song in the studio and wanted people to hear it.
/endrant

I am an audio production major, my school has a multi million dollar studio and no one uses beats. AKG, SENNHEISER, AUDIO TECHNICA are the three major brands for lower end accurate audio reproduction. Truly "clear" headphones are electrostatic such as the ~$1000 stax in Japan, they require their own amp. I think its hillarious that you think beats (which have over accentuated lows and highs...to give compressed music come off of a ****ty audio driver (like the tbolt) a bigger richer sound? More accurate? Absolutely not recessed mids are guarunteed when you "eq" a set of headphones like beats chose to do. The most hillarious part is were in a discussion thread talking about a plugin that does that same eq/compression/gain bull**** and above poster is repping beats to be about accurate sound reproduction. You obviously know a lot less about audio than you pretend to....

Not to mention with all of the money they put towards marketing, Justin bieber beats, p diddy beats, lady GaGa beats....its obvious that its directed at the commercial consumer market, NOT FOR THE AUDIOPHILE/PRODUCER. Go test a pair of ATH-M50s if you don't believe me...

Case and point, beats useless, if you really know how you want your music to sound use playerpro with dsp pack, if your getting cracking, then lower your preamp and get a better output. My brother works the sound board for the starland ballroom in nj, very big venue, and I'm assistant production manager. We have had everyone from Justin bieber to as I lay dying. Beats that you guys are using isn't even the true beats that comes with whatever phones its coming with these days. Do some research and you'll find that out
You should have killed me, when you had the chance

And what I mean by beats optimized is its set up to work best with the way beats headphones are set up...is that alittle easier to understand?

Whilst I did not have any complain with my snapdragon 800 powered Note 3 I gotta say I just love the music player and audio quality of my G3 more with its astonishingly clear sound through headphones.

One of the reasons I bought this phone. Listening through headphones (ultrasone dj1 pro) about 5h/day.

According to the OP the best sounding phone is the HTC M8 & HTC Mini One :crying:

LG is making some pretty competitive phones nowadays!

V4A is a piece of crap. If something is is for everything then it's for nothing. How can something that's made as a universal sound enhancement can work well throughout all kinds of phones with totally different hardware? I always say the best is stock! Designed specially for your phone with particular hardware. In some cases a port can do well such as xperia walkman and audio libs but not always.

That's like saying vandersteen speakers can only run with a tube amp or it just won't work. Not correct my friend. I have worked for R&D in a state of the art audio company my family owned and I currently work for a high end stereo company. If you know what your doing this app can greatly improve how your phone sounds. Especially with badly compressed files. But I'm not trying to change your mind. Just want you to know im semi educated.

I'm just sayin' that software created for a particular hardware is better and more efficient than any universal crap. I like the sound quality in G3 as I liked beats audio in m7 I owned before and I can say that there was no sound enhancement that was better than stock. I use Sony MDR1-RNC headphones. No offence though

It's kinda like adding a nice eq to an existing sound system. No offense taken. I can see what your saying but it is a pretty decent app. Better than beats or the Harmon edition of htc. I had both the m7 and m8 and used viper on both just to get it to sound the way I like. Plus it's free so if ya end up hating it just uninstall the driver and move on. Again no offence taken. Hope your day is going well.

There is a huge clarity improvement with Viper through my Shure SE535's and my AKG's.
@Mahapederdon There are two update files, which version do you use? I used the 4.x version before but that didn't work.... So I assume you are using the 2.3+ version?

Electrical Noise Through Headphones While Charging
Is anyone experiencing faint electrical noises, related to touch screen operations while you have headphones connected and the G3 is charging? I've tested two different sets of (wired) headphones and am experiencing the same issue in both cases. It only seems to occur when power is connected when charging. However, I listen to podcasts or music when going to sleep, while my phone is charging. So, this is a definite issue/concern for me. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Music Mod [XtremeMusic][V4A][Dolby Atmos]

Hello everyone
Found a very useful sound mo - latest version works on Z5C, with Xpower 5, Z3C (Confirmed) and probably others.

Just sharing it with the community

Which one did you install?
did you notice any difference?

Installed the latest (Non systemless one) pretty sure it was version 7.9 or something.
And yeah the difference in what you can change, if you know what you are doing, it can sound amazing

Well they're not bad
Quite good
Can get more bass out of the stock player
And i noticed the sound also doesnt go over the normal volume limit which is nice

Do we have to use the stock music app to see some changes or it works with every music app (I've Soundcloud in mind) ?

Mwa, using 10 different audiomods is overkill. This is just a combination of 4 equalizers, 5 bass boosters, 6 sound enhancers and so on. It's true that a good sound mod can improve your sound a lot, but only if you use it in a clever way.
I used this for a while, but I removed these mods because this just doesn't work. It does give you a lot of extra bass and treble, but it also amplifies noise. Not just a little bit, but a lot. If you just stick to one mod (like Viper4Android) it's much better for your sound and you have more control.

I used to use this soundmod back on the Xperia Z2 that enhances bass and clarity, however it also became one of these "Supermods". Too many audio engines running would kill your battery (as to what I've read) and most of them overlapping would just give you a placebo effect. Good share though. I have been tempted to flash one of these supermods again, I guess I'll be holding back for now.

PETITION for: CAMERA API2 Support, lets try!

We want ZTE to add Camera Api2 support for Axon 7
why do we want it? it is easy to add! and axon 7 supports it, But is not enabled by ZTE yet.
"Camera API 2.0 is New API which allowing you much better camera control by camera apps and also increase the performance of camera.
Camera API 2.0 is fast enough to take advantage of the full resolution of the sensor at 30 fps-burst mode. This means HDR or other such computational photography should be much "cheaper" to do on Android devices. The new API also allows for much more fine-grained control of the sensor, lens and flash per individual frame".
https://www.change.org/p/zte-camera-api2-support-for-axon-7

Great idea!
In the same time would be write to send a petition
About stock player improvements or api for the sound libraries.
We have No useable player since release that fully utilizing the DAC....
What do you think?

I'd rather have them do it like it is done on LOS based roms ie only AKM dac is used.

On listening tests, neutron NOT. AIMP not tested A/B yet.
Neutron sounds differently that stock player on all settings.
I have wrote to developer, but no reply yet.
Also wrote to N7 player develeper, how he do that,
because it is the closest sounding to the Stock player. I can't say that it's exaclty same, but it is a good news listening on hiend monitor speakers or Sony headphones.
Neutron messing up the sound, and goes up until 48khz.
Thank you for the reply.

I'm on stock chinese v2.0 b13, no other custom ROM tested yet. Would be great to do A/B test with between theese two roms, but rooting custom ROM is tricky, becuase of guarantiee. I'm afraid that any problem on unlocking the phone and anything goes wrong I could no live without this phone even one day
(I could record the same sound to hi end recorders from each ROM and compare them in studio quality tests, it's not problem for me from the sound perspective, but "bricking axe" is always above us

Well how about we add --" DAC on/off "-- function toggle? for general use off, for some hi-fi moments you can turn it on, to use the very capable DAC.
What do you say? ( the more attention this matter gets, The more likely it will be taken into consideration and approved, and added .
Cheers!

That already exists and is a quick settings toggle on MiFavor 5. On MiFavor 4 it is under Sound - Hi-Fi

Did you guys actually buy this phone for the camera? I thought that it was literally the worst part of the phone.
Nothing wrong with wanting it though, if we can get the better camera api I'm all with you, but it seems fruitless for this phone unless someone can figure out how to update the firmware for our phones. I doubt ZTE will update ours until the axon 8.
TL/DR: I participated in the petition, but don't expect anything they never work. You should go over to the ZTE forums and try to request it there

Solved Xperia AOSP Problems - Better as Stock

Hey Folks, while working on My next Snappatch Version was i able to fix the biggest Problems on the XZ Premium which should also affect other Xperias. Here are the main Points:
-Camera Noise (Solved)
-Display Quality (Solved)
-Audio Output Quality (Solved)
-Microphone Handling (Solved)
In conlcusion:
I added and enabled some Camera Services and Functions to enhance the Quality and to allow full Google Camera Mod Support.
I added and enabled Display Services and Functions to deliver a more Natural Output besides HDR Support and Adaptive Backlight capabilities.
I added and enabled Audio Services, Functions and Libraries from Qualcomm and SONY Oreo Firmwares to enhance the Output Quality over all Sources like Videos, Music and the main System.
Last but not least better Microphone Handling. Adapted and ehanced from many Android Devices and Qualcomm Documentations to deliver better Recognition and Input Quality over both Mics on top and bottom of the Device.
Nothing against switching from Stock to AOSP anymore. The benefits of Snappatched AOSP over Stock are huge. Latest SDK, full Substratum Support, better Audio and Visual Quality (In and Output), better Performance (Shadowgun Ledgends on Ultra - 60FPS, No heat, no glitches), more freedom of UI Layouts, better App Support, faster Storage Speeds, newer Kernel, Smoother UI, Adaptive Icon Support, Pixel Features and so on. The Snappatch for the XZP is coming soon and i Hope i can raise the Interest on AOSP on Xperias with this!
Forget Stock! This is the next Level! Love My XZP now...
Stay tuned and try it by Yourself!

I hope that you are right. But i want to try it very bad want i want a good working aosp! I CANT WAIT!!!

I'm on 8142 dual SIM I'm willing to try too

:cyclops: Ufff!!! sounds amazing !!! can't wait to test it

G8142 here also. Can't wait to try this out

I think I will unlock my bootloader ?
Can't wait for some reviews

I would really like to get some advanced Feedback and compares between Stock and AOSP. RAW alone should be worth the Bootloader unlock and going away from Stock. SONY does a really great Job on the Sources for our AOSP Bases and everything runs really well compared to other Devices like from LG. One Thing that really bothers Me is the buggy TWRP on our XZP. CPU Temp isn't showing right, MTP fails 90% of the Time and AROMA has a Displaying Bug. Since the Snappatch is coming with My own crafted AROMA Installer will we face a invisible Utility, but i will make a Video showing how to easily flash the Patch anyways on our Devices (Side by Side with working AROMA on the Axon 7).
Hope @Myself5 can solve the TWRP Issues one Day, and that more Users will pay attention to him and his Work on our Forums! Thanks a lot Mate for contributing that much to our Devices, and Sorry for People like this "FartyParty" Guy! Much respect for You, i know how it feels to be on XDA sometimes...

That makes Me very glad and proud, Thanks Guys! Sadly can i not use PayPal, but i would really appreciate if People would Donate to My Mother. She had a Hard Time and is now caring My Grandma which is diseased. I think she would be very thankful and happy about some Donations based on My Work here. I will talk to her and if it's ok do i share her Paypal Address on My Thread or Signatur somehow. Think that would be a nice Idea if You're also ok with that!

Strange. I Googled a lot about this and this was always a Issues with some TWRP Recoveries. Most of the Time did it helped to use older TWRP Images but the last one gives just a Black Screen after booting into it. I will test a Copy of My old Light Patch again and take a look on whats different! Thanks for the Hint!

If it possible release your patch for less than 5 hours because my internet time is going to end.please.

How was RAW support achieved?
From what I've seen, this wasn't possible before because there were no drivers that enabled that with the used camera chip.
And there's still one thing missing; SloMo support. Is there a chance this can be added as well?

I had trouble with the Camera Configs (Camera not starting anymore), but solved it and added more of them. Last remaining Problem are Issues with Google Service Audio (Music and Video not playing due to failing Audio Configs). Think i need more Time to solve this, but the release is close...

It's all there on AOSP. Camera2 API is supported but not configured right (There are X Lines for the Cameras), i've seen the same on the Z1 and Z3 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...ussion-development-custom-rom-t3479108/page11) some Years back, and i was sure it's all depending on this right now. Other Xperias may have the same Camera Problems since AOSP is coming with just the barely minimum of Build Properties and Configs. That's also the Case on the most other Devices and AOSP based ROM and one of the Reasons for doing My Patch. Some missing Things are causing Issues (Like Microphone Problems), and others do just bring a lack of Features (Like with the Camera and Display, Audio, etc.).
It's pretty Time intense to test all this Entries and Values but it's really worth the Time. And if i would do a OS would i start with that Things before changing the Kernel and adding ROM Features, but i can only talk for Me. Not sure how much Time ROM Devs put into building of AOSP for the own Devices, but i work for sure at least 40 Hours on One Major Release of My Patch (Including copying, flashing, testing and editing).
AROMA was also really Time Intense but i removed the Installer over Night and edited the Updater Script to flash the recommended Options without it. Here is a little List of what gets flashed:
-Original Oreo Pixel Bootanimation
-Original Oreo Pixel Ringtones, Alarms, Notifications
-HTC U 11 UI Sounds, Ringtones, Alarms, Notifications
-Prop Patch (Including many changes and Configs)
-Snappatch Core System (Including the mainly needed Content)
-Snappatch Audio System (Based on XZ Premium Oreo Stock)
-Snappatch Emojis (EmojiOne replacement Font)
-Magisk Stable V16
-Busybox with many Applets, SElinux & Magisk Support
-GApps (Barely minimum Set)
And that's it for now. It includes all of the Features of the Patch, less optional but i can ensure a great Experience with this Setup! Like said am i now about to fix the last Bugs which are Audio Config related and after that will come the Thread with the new Release. Hope You will like it Folks!

Stupid xda -__-

Keep up the good work brother

I'm done for now! Release is in the next 24 Hours...
Changelog can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ak5DsenMjuSyypPBAjQact6MhtsE2MRFlvCHLTn9uHA/edit?usp=sharing
I removed the Audio System for now due to Issues with Xperias AOSP ROMs but i'll work on it again after releasing the actual Patch. Sounds already a lot better even without the replacement Libs and Configs! Stay tuned...
