I noticed it has a special link for Samsung . What 2 do ? Hmmm .

TookRDerbs · March 8th, 2012, 04:34 AM

installed and running on both phones. you really dont notice the difference unless you listen to music with a lot of bass. basically the beats audio is a background service that adds super awesomeness to your existing music player. id just stick with the Download03/02/12 cause i know for a fact it works but hell try the samsung one out see if it works too

johnny424 · March 8th, 2012, 08:00 AM

well flashing with cwm didnt work..it says it installed but i dont think it did..ill try root explorer like the ops directions

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 09:03 AM

What did you find Johnny?

Caeadas · March 8th, 2012, 09:08 AM

Edit: I'm a complete moron. My feeble, coffee-deprived brain read that as Rom Manager this morning. Something about clockworkmod and flashing made me react too quickly, trying to stop someone from bricking their phone. My apologies.

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 09:40 AM

I've been in this Forum almost a year and been running Root Explorer just about that whole time . I've never heard that nor ever had a problem with it . As a matter of fact , a lot of the DEVS I've spoken with even recommend it . I believe that you've been misinformed about Root Explorer .

One way that Root Explorer COULD play a part in damaging your system is being in the hands of someone who doesn't know what they are doing and accidentally delete or move the incorrect file . That would crash your phone 4 sure in a lot of cases .

johnny424 · March 8th, 2012, 09:42 AM

lol not for me..root explorer is the best app i ever bought..just gotta be cautious when changing things up..but anyway i dont think it will work inless your running a custom rom..im running stock gb rooted with my TU..but it wont install..not sure what you need to be on a custom rom for..but ill mess with it tonight when i get off of work

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 09:43 AM

Did you try the link that says for Samsung phones or just the first link ?

You're right, I'm an idiot. I misread Root Explorer as Rom Manager.

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 10:19 AM

LOL . That's def. one ya don't wanna mess with . Atleast not on the Prevail .

UPDATE

The top link and the link for the Samsung devices DO NOT work . Both installations were aborted in CWM .

I will not try again after reading the thread in XDA . Some people had to re-install there entire ROM after trying this . HEH atleast I tried .

PhoneMan93 · March 8th, 2012, 10:57 AM

None of them work for me

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 10:59 AM

I only tried the top link in the thread and the one for the Samsung phones . Those were the ones that were supposed to work . That kinda sux man . I was looking forward to trying it out .

I know, huge let down

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 11:07 AM

HEY !! The EQ is nice and works very well . That's a plus . I'm jammin' to "Animal I have Become" by Three days Grace as I type and it's freakin' JAMMIN' pretty hard ! LOL I've got some good headphones on too . I'm sure that has a lot to do with it .

na its cool dude..but root explorer is a must have for root users

anyway thanks for the find..i shared with the Tranform forum..one person posted its working pretty good..

TookRDerbs · March 8th, 2012, 11:56 AM

yea so ive been reading up on this for a few hours and just about everyone is saying not to great things about the whole beats audio for android. sorry guys i thought this worked for me but i guess it was just my eq lol. ill keep a lookout for more on this subject and let yall know if someone gets it to work

wetbiker7 · March 8th, 2012, 12:09 PM

Just for future reference , check when you are installing using CWM . It will tell you whether or not it installs or aborts . Thanks for trying though . I do like the EQ .

One plus is its working for the tu..how much improved I'm not sure yett..noone has been able to install it on the prevail?

Lordvincent 90 · March 8th, 2012, 04:23 PM

If you open the zip as an archive and replace the update/updater script inside with the updater script from the apk installer it should work.

Riotpump · March 8th, 2012, 11:43 PM

Appreciate the fix Blood. Tried this out a while back when someone from XDA ported it over. Wasn't working then, does now.

wetbiker7 · March 9th, 2012, 12:30 AM

Good lookin' out Blood . Installing now .

VoltronMaximus · March 9th, 2012, 03:23 PM

I flashed Bloodawns prevail zip. How do I know if it installed? Is it an app? I see nothing in my apps.:confused

its audio drivers and shit like that. only way to see if they're installed is if you actually notice a difference or you use root explorer to see if the files are there.

Thanks dude.

Wilalva11 · March 10th, 2012, 03:48 PM

Is there a specific file I need to look for? I searched beats in root explorer and found the zip file in my SD directory and a bunch if files in I think the etc folder with the words ibeats in each

theres really no need to look for the files cause I've never seen a cwm zip complete and then fail to install the files. but if you really want to look, just see whats inside the zip and look on your phone to see if the same files are there.

Roguefoxx · March 11th, 2012, 07:30 PM

Wow this actually sounds great! Just installed and can really notice a difference, thank you!

Bloodawn · March 15th, 2012, 05:38 PM

the port got updated yesterday so heres a new zip

this version will take up about 12 mb on your rom btw

BeatsAudio-Prevail-031412.zip

J6Remy · March 17th, 2012, 12:10 PM

12 mbs and I can't personally tell a difference.

I must be partially deaf or something. I can't really tell the difference. Hmm maybe it's something I'm doing wrong. I believe the hardware is also a key factor which is why there isn't much of a difference. Then again I could be wrong lol.

I want to thank you though for converting this for everyone

ive been running this for a little while the only difference ive noticed is the low low bass hits extremely hard and the highs are toned down just a bit, but thats just me. i also have been putting a huge sound system in my truck for a few years and i notice things like that :P it could be the 4 12's 2 10's and all the other crap ive put in just rattling my brain loose haha

oh yea i would install that eq i put in the first post that does waaaaaaaaay more than the beats does

Okay so that's what I thought. It isn't much of a difference then. I thought maybe I was doing something wrong since I wasn't hearing anything from the ordinary.

It can't do anything with phone speaker, but car or head phone speakers is where work is done.
