Beats Audio - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do installation of beats audio on rooted phone makes it really work? Mean does it improves the sound quality like the original beats audio phones?

yes.but u need a beatz headset.it also works with other headsets.but not that effective.

Yea
The result is different with different device. This app really have system files of beats , i open and extract this archive and found folder asset where system files like bin , etc , lib.. and then i copy to my mobile ,sound fells good. It have just only little bit clarity and sound was abit louder with my Samsung Stock Headset
It will be great to buy the Beats Headset

Well I've tried it on many of my Droids and it does seem to bring about a change especially in bass and treble terms . The difference is not too noticeable with oem headsets or so it feels to me but on others , a few premium ones I've tried it is noticeable indeed

Thanks all of you for your suggestions, may be I should try a beats headset to see the difference

beats headphones are garbage...

audiophiles laugh at beats headphones and Bose. for a quarter the price I could find headphones that would blow them out of the water. people are such consumer whores

if they actually sounded good I might understand, but they sound terrible imo

It doesn't make such a big difference unless used with high end headphones where it does slightly improve the base but most of the time you won't notice the difference.

Oh god Beats, why not just get Bose? They both cry "I love to over pay for mediocre headphones."

[Q] Fluctuating/Auto volume issue

Since there's no Q&A forum for this phone (yet), I'll try in here.
I've noticed this morning, when listening to my music through my earphones, that the volume tends to subtly fluctuate - perhaps slightly reducing the volume on the louder parts of songs.
I don't like this (it's not even at max volume either) - is there a way to stop it? I've looked in the music player's settings and also the sound settings for the phone itself, but no luck.
This is my first Samsung Andrdoid so if I'm missing something common to these, feel free to hit me with the noob stick
You've got the SGS II already?
You are probably in the wrong forum, mate.
Nope, he is not.
Some lucky dawgs got it through P4U.
I got it yesterday afternoon from Phones4U, although I think I've sorted this problem out now. I think it was related to the bass enhancement setting, because I disabled that and it's not doing it anymore (or it's no longer noticeable).

Big question how do you find the sound quality what headphones are you using? Thanks
Swyped from my Desire HD using XDA App
I'm using Soundmagic PL30's and the sound is great, although I did notice a bit of crappines when I had the bass enhancement on and turned it right up. Now I have it on Auto/Rock EQ with no effects - perfect for my needs.
I've yet to test the phone's speaker.
I don't have the phone and only played with android briefly before, but in theory, what you are describing is known as "normalizing", where the device tries to make the songs sound as even as possible. This results in capped louder parts and sometimes increased quieter parts. Is there any option like this in the equalizer?
May I say... Congratulation and I HATE YOU... J.K...
Post up some more details of what you DISLIKE of it so far

Actually PL30 are slightly bass heavy themselves and at best average if sgs2 sound is even somewhat like sgs. If u really want something better without breaking bank get brainwavz M1 or nuforce ne6 if you prefer boomier bass. This phone does deserve more than PL30.
PL30 respond very badly to presets on SGS1 as well.
Magically posted from thin air!
Aw, I only bought these a couple of weeks ago!
I'll bear your recommendations in mind though, thanks.
Actually, the earphones that came with it look better (not the awful standard things you usually get). I probably won't open them though.
Edit: no normalization option, Deathangel. It sounds ok now anyway

Really? The Yamaha DAC that was included can actually best the Wolfson 8994? I've been torn between the SGSII and the Sensation for quite a while now. This tips the scales in the GSII's favor.
P.S.- How does it compare to an SGS with the Supercurio Voodoo mod?
It's very close mate. I haven't done a proper comparison between them but I get a full range from Bass, mid and treble using PowerAMP to listen to music with the SGS II. I'd say it maybe slightly better than the SGS with Voodoo if I had to chose.

This seems the best thread to ask...
I'm looking for the best earbuds I can get for £30 or less (preferably less of course) for the highest quality listening. I'm hoping to use the SGSII in place of my iTouch since it can play FLAC natively!
Any help/suggestions is greatly appreciated!

S3 Audio Quality

Hey all!
Just wanted to share my opinion ...
I personally think after using S3 for about a Week now, that S3's Audio Quality "is far superior in Comparison to an iPhone or hTc Beats".
I've used these both.
Does someone else thinks the same, or is it my Love for S3 which makes me believe this ???

As per other SGS3 audio posts try reading them many say not loud enough .
Personally i will not disagree with your viewpoint .

I love the quality but don't think it goes loud enough; its noticeably more quiet than my S2.

You could give franco's kernel a try, he has boosted the volume significantly and it sounds great without impacting the audio quality.
Highly recommend it, and the bonus of better battery life too

Like I've said before, listen to a Nokia N95 speaker or headphones and you'll realise how poor S3 really is.

HTC One included headphones Beats Audio?

Ok so I have noticed the included headphones with the One look just like beats without the branding. Also to me at least they sound very good. Could they be beats internally? Any thoughts.

HTC only owns 25% of the Beats brand. Beats is its own company and they build all their own products. The headphones included do look like they belong in the Beats line but they don't match any of Beats' current offerings. That said, I'm sure they were designed to give off a Beats vibe but Beats they are not. They are good quality for a free headphone, I will give them that. Beats headphones suck anyways so don't look at it like it's a negative that they aren't actually Beats headphones.

That is not true. Beats never made their own products, Mosnter Cable did until last year. HTC makes ALL of them now. Go to Bestbuy or Frys and look on the back of the box. The box looks exactly the same except one will say made by HTC and the Old stock with say made by Monster Cable. But yes you are technically correct, "Beats" is it's own company. They just don't actually make anything.

I am aware that Monster used to make Beats headphones. In fact, when Beats first came out they were not only manufactured by Monster, but were also completely designed by them, regardless of what Dre and Iovine would have you believe. When Beats and Monster split, Beats got all the patents. Now they manufacture their own. HTC doesn't design or build Beats headphones. They just have a percentage of the company. They had the controlling stake when they first bought in which would explain the "By HTC" on the box because technically if you own 50.1% of a company, you can say you build their products. They only have 25% now. Either way, HTC never actually built Beats headphones. HTC's factories are in Taiwan, Beats are made in China. You can Google all this if you don't believe me.
Just my opinion but they look like crap and the bass is all muddled. That being said, they tend to stay in my ear better than some of my other earbuds and I do like the flat cable.

When Monster made Beats they were actually made by Foxconn (as most Monster products are), but now they are indeed made by a HTC owned (ok controlled may be a better word) plant. As I have said before Beats doesn't make anything as with most American "brands" like this. And yes, I know this for a fact. As we all know, the actual plants that make these types of products are always subcontracted.
The point I'm making by all of this, is that fact that the old Beats and the new Beats sound completely different (for the better) and HTC can make headphones that are identical to "Beats" and not call them "Beats". Case in point. This is exactly what they are doing with the included headphones with the One.

Actually Beats got back most of their ownership from HTC. They were 50/50 owned but Beats bought back half of the HTC owned section and now the Beats brand owns 75% of Beats and HTC only owns 25%. Far from HTC controlling them

I agree. These are easily the best sounding free headphones i've ever got. :good:
I've been prowling the these boards and heard that the cheap looking headphones were better than the ones included in my S4. So I did a comparison today and grabbed the cheap red and black ones from my girlfriends HTC One box. May I say I am disappointed in Samsung. HTC not only has better sounding speakers but a better sounding headphone. From lows to highs and bass these headphones rival Beats. They're ugly though.
They sounded good for a whole 10 minutes. The wire at the base of the jack, when wiggled just a tiny bit, causes loss of sound and distortion. That wire didn't last long.

Haha, love the people that think they sound... they sound TERRIBLE! The apple earpods sound almost as good as a $200 pair of earbuds. These beats audio ones that came with the phone and in general are so muddy sounding... You guys need to get your hearing checked.

Audio is far inferior to V20

Tested back to back with my wife's V20 using the included AKG earbuds using a high fidelity flac file of the Allman Brothers song Old Friend, which is two acoustic guitars with strong vocals. Night and day, there was far more detail and less hiss using the V20. Tested also with hih quality flac files of Metallica and Andrea Bocelli. Same. Far more detail.
Used Poweramp Alpha with high fidelity output enabled. Nothing scientific, just back to hack.
I mostly like the Note 8 otherwise, but for sound quality alone I think I'll return for the V30 when it comes out. Haven't Used the S Pen hardly at all, which surprised me. For me, audio quality is important.
Just one man''s opinion.

So what was your purpose of buying a Note then if you had no intention of using the pen? Seems you bought it for all the wrong reasons and decided to post here to get others to sway away from the Note 8.
Just information others might find useful sir. Not trying to sway anyone in any direction.
You are comparing a phone that was made for quality audio to a phone that wasn't.
Now, LG V20 stylus is inferior compared to the Notes.
"audio quality is important"... what the Note 8 could do was known before you ordered it. Sorry but all one had to do is search and then look at the history of Galaxy phones in regards to sound. For me the word 'NOTE" says it all. Now.. again for ME... MUSIC? Yeah.. not going with any phone
After my Note 7 Fiasco I got the LG v20. The sound was good on it. But I don't listen to anything on my phones anyway. The phone it's self was ok at best. The LG v30 will be the same. Lg is incapable of making a phone with the build quality like the Note. I can tell by looking at the v30 that it is going to feel cheap.

Opinions are always welcome but your opinion is of the "duh really" variety. If you want the best sound get a V10, V20, or V30 when it arrives. For that matter I'll trade you my U11 straight up, if music is that important to you.
Enjoy your Note8.

When I first receive my Note 8. I was despised with how it sounds.
I think you want to make your own adapt sound setting first. only then it sounds good. really good.
Listen with Tidal and Neuron. boy. it sounds so good!!
Adapt sound on note 8 is much more better than adapt sound on my last note 3
Yeah amhave to agree with everyone else. If audio is important, LG V10/30 is for you.
Comparing quad dacs to what Samsung offers is not an even match.
If audio is important, i would advise you to get a separate audio device. I have note 8 as my daily driver for work, personal and games. I own a DP-CM1X for audio with 2.5mm balanced cable to my im03.

I have the Note FE, Note 8 and LG V20.
Note 8 is much better than the Note FE but no way as good as the V20 when you use 24 bit music (Lossless). But I believe most consumers use streaming services which use high but rate MP3s so most so consumers would be happy with the Note 8. I am not which is why I use a dedicated Sony NW ZX300 DAP.

If they're saying sounds 1.4 x louder on the plus i would reckon so right?
Fingers crossed
Waiting for more info on this as well. Thinking of retiring my v20 and getting this instead.

I have been in different stores trying the speakers, and I have to say they sound nice pretty nice and loud. I never buy phones with no dual speaker configuration, and for the first time Samsung is doing this, I have to say I'm pretty impressed. About the headphone jack, I wouldn't be able to say, but I think most of the phones are in the same level except for LG V line.

I think many of us would like that, but they didn't say anything about a special DAC, so I doubt they implemented something really special for audio.

Sigh. Wish they did. I love the v20 but the lack of updates on LGs part is just pitiful. Still on 7.0 with Dec security patch. Nice camera, Excellent audio output through the jack [what i care about].
Might as well buy a dedicated dac and the s9.
Edit: What would be a good DAC to buy?

Honestly, I don't care that much about if they use a specialized DAC or nor as long as it sounds decent. I was more worried about the speakers, but they sound really nice.
Usually I'm not much time with headphones, maybe 1-2 times per month, but everyday I see videos and I appreciate a lot the stereo speakers, which are really good.

Looks good! But slightly beyond what i can buy especially after buying the s9+ :silly:
How does this look?

It's around 149 bucks on amazon.
So apparantly it's running the latest cirrus logic we will have to wait a bit for root to tell exactly which one. Sound is great through high end headphones, rich sound louder than the s8

High impedance?
I have the Amiron and DT 770 80 ohm and the volume level in the S8 is too low.
If S9 is louder I'm seriously considering a switch

Guess will have to wait for Dolby to be ported to the S8 before rooting.
Sounds quite good with the sound personalisation (test tones) all with "yes" - using AK T8ie mkII it sounds pretty credible.
Dolby Atmos is a major turn-off to me though
It does sound different to the Note 8 (both international versions), more authorative - so, definitely feels like an upgrade.
The audio chip in the S9+ is the same as in the S8 series.
Cirrus Logic CS47L93 Audio Codec.
