I got my 14 year old an evo 3d for Christmas and some beats headphones. What stable, everyday, no lag rom would you recommend with beats audio? Also does it make a difference with the beats audio in the rom? Thanks in advance.

ok i'm just gonna say this for every one. Beats audio is a gimmick. I'm going to make a post later why this is so. but here is one that's nice

To answer your question does it make difference yes and no.
Yes it does give more bass response, but at a cost it takes out the highs.
Here's an easy fix to get good sounding audio.
Don't use MP3'S They take out some of the upper frequencies of the audio file and it removes alot of the stereo effect. They just don't sound good.
But if you want more bass just get an eq app and boost the bass.

Gimmick? Yes, but it does make a BIG difference for this phone. If you have a kernel with the Rezound drivers, expect a significant difference.
All I have done to the phone is root it. I believe I will need a rom to flash before the kernel? Any suggestions on a rom? Thanks for the info.

ROMs
There's a list of ROMs here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192661
From that list, I've tried Olympus Trinity 3D. It comes with Beats and a few 3D games.

I personally found better results and more audio customizations with DSP Manager.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795233
But I don't have Beats headphones, so I don't know how the sound quality will differ.
If DSP Manager is enough that you don't need Beats, then CleanROM is fast and stable.

I personally like Airborne ROM. It's a nightly, so changes are being made often. It's fast, highly customizable, and Sense-less, using Launcher Pro as Home.

do Beats Audio In ear tour work on galaxy ace??i mean do they work on any devices or needs supported devices like Sensation XE??
thx for your help +1
its an headphone why would it not work??
Are you looking to me?? i have an chinese ARMY !! (-(-(-.-)-)-)
its not just the headphone, its proprietary thingy htc put into the device itself.
personally i think its just marketing trick, maybe just some equalizer implementation, renamed as that "beats audio".
u can just install any equalizer from market and get similar effect, and maybe even better than beats audio.
take a look into our own chinese zckpa stock rom, it had louder audio volume compared to any other rom exist for us until now. its something chinese dev put into it to make it sound louder and better. its proof of similar thing can be achieve just in software (read:rom) level.

Is there a way to have beats with dspmanager on an ics 4.0.3 rom or just beats with any other equalizer?
I don't know, but after owning the Rezound for two days I'm finding Beats Audio overrated. PowerAMP + the right equalizer settings give you the same effect.
beats earbuds are sweet tho

Ehhh, they're okay I guess. I bought some MEElectronics M6-BK's for like $20 that sound just as good for me. Beats by Dre is just a brand. Don't get me wrong, they're very decent headphones and earbuds, but you can buy buds or headphones for half the price and get just as good of a sound or better.
So does anyone know how to get dsp or some other equalizer working along with beats like we had on GB?
Forgive me if this a stupid answer, but seeing as beats is fixed in ICS now why not just download the DSP.apk and install it? wound that not work?

That actually doesn't work.
So I installed the Beats Audio mod of bassini and predator today everything works finde included LeeDroid Tweaks.
But my problem is if I change the sound enhancer to Beats Audio it won't start playing my music.
My ROM is KingCobra 1.5. What could be the problem ?
Use SRS mate. Much better sound quality
Beats is **** IMHO, headphones and software

Have to agree here. Beats is placebo effect and is essentially just an EQ setting.

Indeed, if you set up EQ by yourself you will have better improvements then with beats.
And about headphones, there is much better cups for that price.
But HTC is owner of beats and he need all promotion he can get. If that means put some EQ and promote it as big sound enhancer, then let it be.
For rizzle. Beats sounds like ish, I don't know why ROM developers even include them. It sounds especially horrible over stereo bluetooth.
people....it doesn't matter what your opinions of beats are, you're almost starting to sound like apple haters
what he wants to use is his preference at the end of the day
the guy's asked a question on this ROM regarding his beats EQ not working...either answer his question or "politely" don't bother posting. For all you know after you provide him with the solution he thinks of it as **** anyways so just answer the question.

are you using v10 from his thread? and also didn't kingcobra include this in his ROM anyways?
Yes I'm using v10 and KingCobra doesn't include it so I installed via Aroma installer.
After giving a try to SRS I can say the quality is really better than normal. I just wanted to test Beats.
exactly...at the end of the day you should be the one to decide since its your phone

I feel the exact opposite, I happen to love beats over Bluetooth going to my alpine head unit with jl audio 12 w7, infinity kappa interior speakers 1000 watt jl audio amp, vs any other sound enhancers ie Dolby srs, pop, etc... I cant wait till we get a new kernel with beats to roll on my newts sence 4.0 Rom...

Don't think so on my creative WP-350, actually makes it better.
Today I realised that I had turned on SRS all the time, and sound is very good too.
Anyway, beats is image, not for me, but for my friends when they see phone with 3D AND with beats.
As far as sound enhancers go.....thx and dts are the best ones for me....too bad they aren't on phones yet

Hey Guys, I would like your Good Ears to be the Judge.
For you people who uses Walkman Mod by ThilinaC before, might have used AC!D audio for now.
Which Mod do you guys prefer? Which have good sound qualities in terms of Clarity, Distortion & Bass (How Noisy is it? Did it Suppresses Vocals? How Deep and Clear it is?)
Walkman Mod by ThilinaC 7.5
- Beats
- SRS
- Clear Bass+ (<- Clear Audio+?)
- Alsa
Ac!D Audio 4.0
- Xperia T Alsa
- Walkman Z dynamic Bass
- Beats
- Srs
- Dolby
- Clear Audio
- ???
I owns a Sony MDR-XB41EX Earphone. But you people out there, I'm sure owns some more better earphone than I did eg, Beats Tour, XBA-4
Guys I need your opinion, as I would like to rebase my Rom one LAST time. So that I can only stick to that particular sound Mod. Aduh, Rebasing a Rom is so Time Consuming ==
First I Thank people who gives Feedback, Second Thank me if I've solve your Woe too

Good Feedback guys, I'll try to seek Walkman V ports.
One More Thing, it might probably change your minds, Try Using N7 Player from Market and Compare it's sound quality with Walkman's
*Knight47 says N7 Player offers more clarity
N7 Player Packs with 6 Band EQ and SRS effect, feel free to try it out, but don't get your head twisted :#

Reason: My HeadPhones are Build for BASS, so Bass need not to be high. Whereas others, Treble need to be high
Well for me beats is ****. I ahve tryed beats audio on sensation xl and it was ****. Sound depresed me. You actualy cant enjoy what teh artist has done. I tryed it with my philips in ear(o'neel series) and beats headphones out ear. Both were ****. Well my philips was slightly better.. Then i tryed teh same song on my ray with 7.5 by thilina. The saund was awesome - with my philips. And with beats it was the same as on sensation with my philips.(****). Acid audio is close to what the sensation xl was. Well it has good trebles but the bass is awful. I mean its way toomuch. People think that more bass is gud but its not. Even 7.5 walkman hasnt got good bass on high quality tracks by artists like Massive Attack. So i think that beats is just to be cool. Like iPhone is not a gud phone but if you have one you will be cool. And in Arcs themes and apps. There is Xperia V walkman full port by Till Kruise. Its teh best walkman for now. Its with clear bass 2 or +. But not with beats. And every track is balanced on it and Massive Attack's tracks are amazing with it.
At least give a survey on the topic
For me ACiD is the best since it can Xloud and Bravia Engine and all that to CM Based ROMs. And the sound is incredible. Way better than ThilinaC's Walkman in my opinion.
In my opinion the original Walkman on my Ray using only the new lib files etc from the newer phones is the only way to go. I have tried all the mods on here and for me the Acid 1 sounded really tinny and almost hollow sounding like there was no depth to the music whereas the original Walkman with just updated files sounds way more complete.
I like to keep it as close to stock as possible but with any updated files to improve what was already there and the sound quality coming from my Ray with my setup is way better than anything else I've tried but then this is only my opinion and everybody likes music a different way, I like clarity and treble and not the deep punchy bass but the style of music you listen to also affects it so it's really about what sounds best to you.
... Just make a backup in CWM and try various ones, that's what I did

Hi MrTapa
Who said beats is a _____?(Google it mate. Even David guetta said that he dj'ed with beats). if you have good ears you can notice the difference. Actually we didn't port beats from sensation xl. Our mod includes many good things other than beats. And last You can adjust the bass effect in our mod.

Im using livesound, tried sens px100mk2 and sony xb500 with this Ray, well, nothing impressive no matter u r using which Walkman, Ray not pump out enough juice for cans, only iems work. Use whatever you can install fine on your phone.Beats software is worthless, don't turn it on if you have decent pair of iems. The environment and clear bass work, but sound will be a bit muddy compare to EQ off.

Not a bass fan, but its clear and enough. Treble is coming out great (that is what is important for me).
Have two Rays at home, one of my better half- so I have really compared with the stock player. You'll notice improvements on the speaker as well.
Now, I'm using my phone for music again--
