[Q] installing a mod on locked photon - Motorola Photon 4G

Hi I'm new to the whole android system.
I'm rooted but not unlocked.
I installed the Rocko 3.0 rom for locked users and i want to install the beats audio mod. I wanted to know how to install it. do i do it thru recovery mode and just install zip, or do i just do it thru file explorer.
any help would be appreciated. thanks!!

Doesn't Rocko already come with the beats mod included? Or am I mistaken? Either way you could just copy files with root explorer to destination fix perms and do it that way if you wanted.

what "beats" performance fix ? care to share the link ?

Beats audio libs, like beats by dre. some claim it helps other say it's useless.. Do a search on xda, I would for you but on photon

I don't think rocko comes with the beats audio included cause there was a separate link for it. and i don't know how to replace the lib. so my question is if i could just install the zip file the same way i installed the rom thru recovery mode?

i found the thread that discuss it, but the link was removed, can anybody give me the link to the working one ?
thank you.

[REQUEST] Need the default Radio app

Hi! I am currently using an unofficial port of CM7 on my O1. I downloaded from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354
However, the radio app in this ROM is not pretty good, it won't scan channels and the quality is bad as well. While fiddling with Titanium Backup, I deleted the default app!
I was trying to find the default radio app but couldn't find it. Can someone please help me with installation of the default radio app for O1? I would like to go for the original radio that came with 2.2 since that was perfect for me.
Guys please help me!!
It will not work on CM7. Extract it from the CM7 build.
OK. Well, can you tell me or guide me to some threads which can tell me how to go about it? Or is there any other app that I can use to tune into local radio? Please help me with this.
Download the build that you've flashed and open it with winrar or winzip. Navigate in it to apps and search for the radio app. I think it is called FM.apk. After this, push it via ADB or copy it with root explorer to /system/app.
Don't forget to change permissions.
P.S: also copy FM.odex and change permissions.

Thanks for the info badeaioan. But can you please direct me to any posts which can guide me regarding pushing files using adb? I tried using Ghost Commander but couldn't get it to copy files into the /system/app folder since it is giving me a -Read-only File System error. Can I use Terminal Emulator? If yes, how??? I am not a developer that's why I am asking so many questions.
Froyo FM Radio app needed
I'm with the same problem, I had 2.2 Froyo on my O1, and today upgraded to Cyanogenmod 7 port, Gingerbread 2.3.3 witch came with an FM radio app tha does not suit my needs, incluing turnig bluetooth on without needing it...

Hey guys. Copy the file to /system/app/ with the root explorer change the permissions (rw-r--r--) and reboot.
Working on 2.2 with devoid.franco.
Try it and leave your comment.
2.2 Radio app wont work with CM7, Radio app "hacked" by Mik has some problems, if you cant live with CM7 radio app, then I suggest for you to go back to any 2.2.x ROM.
Previous instructions were just for reinstalling CM7 radio app

I love the FM radioapp by from LG. Is there any way to work it in CM7.2 !
yes please
The Radio on froyo 2.2 was indeed much better than Cyanogen Mod7.2 . It had 12 channels, as opposed to 6 channels. and auto scan as well. Can someone suggest me how to get a better Radio App than the one on CM7 ?
You would have to buy spirit fm unlocked else try to hack on your own. There is no way yet to make it work. Also as mentioned previously on this forum fm and Bluetooth are on same chip. So turning on one will start the other
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
Since FM & BT are on same chip (H/W), whichever rom u use, it turns on both, only the BT icon is not enabled in default FM

[Q] das bamf in ROM manager?

Hi All,
Possibly a stupid question, but I searched around and couldn't find the answer...
Where is Das Bamf located in ROM manager? There is no download link in the ROM thread (for the latest version, 1.3.2), just says to use CWR. Does it require the paid version? The only ROM providers I see in the manager are Extras, IncPacker, MrBobrowitz, jdlfg, jcase, MIUI, t3hh4xx0r, RetroKid223, and Google Apps. None of these seem to have Das Bamf.
I was able to find Das_BAMF1.3.2_te.zip by manually browsing his site's directory structure (hxxp://adrynalyne.grdlock.net/bamf/roms/themed/Das_BAMF1.3.2_te.zip), but when downloaded, it's only 3kb and is not a valid zip, so I assume that is not correct.
Thanks, all help is appreciated.
I am not completely sure about this and someone can correct me if I am wrong but I don't believe the ROM is available through ROM Manager. If you go to the thread and download the Themed or Non Themed ROM and save it to your SD card, you can then use ROM Manager to flash it. You probably ended up downloading just the Kernel, it's 3MB Also, you may want to wait a bit because 1.4 is supposed to be out today

Yea you may have just downloaded the kernel. The Rom is 200+mb I believe. Just download it and save it to your SD card. I the opened ROM manager and rebooted in recovery and then selected flash zip and selected the Rom's zip file.

Wow, somehow I completely missed that in the long list of links, thanks for pointing it out, I feel like an idiot
I was assuming that because I only saw links for the kernels, that the ROM itself was in the manager. Thanks!
By the way, does anyone who's already flashed this ROM have the md5sum for Das_BAMF1.3.2_nte.zip? I like to be on the safe side.
Actually, adrynalyne just posted a few hours ago that 1.4 will be available later today, so I'll probably just wait for that. Anyway, thanks for the help.
Sorry to bring back a dead thread, but I am hoping someone can help me out with this one. In ROM Manager, under DasBamf, it no longer lists any of the ROMS and gives me an error and tells me to contact the ROM Dev. Anyone else witness this or is it just me? Any fix?

It has been recommended not to download the roms from Rom manager, at least at one point, because people were getting bad and corrupted downloads. Just download out of the thread for the Rom you want and flash in recovery

I tried the permissions the first time... I think I did something wrong bc the phone kept booting to recovery and had to reflash the rom... Then I just copied, pasted, and rebooted everything is there and working. Didnt touch permissions the second go... The only reason why I know it is bc my headphones are leveled out now, as before the left was weak and low compared to the right
It flashed fine for me on Energy. Made a difference with my SkullCandy Ear Buds.

There is no menu or beats icon as what xboarder said but its the same concept as a beats mode but activate automatically when you flash the beats port..

If there is sound difference then your good to go.. but for just making sure that everyrhing is working open the zip files and one of the folders inside the system folder then on your phone have root explorer or any file manager that can go or open root, then open your system folder then compare the files on the folder zip and your phone if it has the same and flashed sucess or else just copy/paste everything on the system folder on your zip and paste it on your system folder on your phone...

[APP] BEATS™Manager

NOTE: This is just a DSPManager mod done by me, The original is done by Cyanogen.
BEATS™Manager - A Modded Beats version of DSP Manager.
You will need to at least follow the Lib Installation for the app to work fully, The beats file shared below is the new audio add on which improve everything.
=App Installation=
Download the apk below, paste BEATS™Manager.apk onto system/app using root explorer, and change permissions of file to rw-r-r.
=Lib Installation=
Download dsp_manager-ICS.zip below, flash it in recovery, using root explorer, go to system/app/dspmanager and delete it.
=Installation of BEATS™ files (not a must, test build)=
PS. sorry for not being able to make a flashable file yet, i try to get it done in a few days time.
Download BEATS™Manager-ICS files.zip below, Extract them slowly to each folder as stated in there and changing their permissions to rw-r-r.
NOTE - do not extract vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf or etc/audio_effects.conf.
Reboot.
It work's for stock and custom Rom.
V.1
First release by me. DSP ICS Lib below.
v.1.2
Improve audio, Bugs fix.
Is this mod affects the bass performance?
Edit: I mean does it have any difference compared to original DSPmanager?
This is the lastest DSP Manager, it sound better then the old one, I didn't touch what CM did so it's the same as the lastest but theme differently.
Edit: by lastest I think it's the one in CM10

Awesome! Thanks dude!
There seems to be a bug in this app.The volume up/down keys decreases volumes drastically and it's too low.The default walkman sound also won't let open sound enhancement due to this mod.It gives error saying i have installed another app and remove it before using it.On stock ICS 4.0.4 with xperia s walkman mod.

Part of the Reason there's a bug in the app is, it's missing some DSP files which i forgotten that it is needed. I will upload a the original DSP flashable file in a min.

U can use file explorer with system acces (es file explorer is what I use). App is in system/app folder and it's easy to extract it and push in your ROMs system. I'm not sure if it will work though
Hi again,
I just tried the option with flashing the old htc fm radio app into the system/app folder. From what I've seen it doesn't work.
I extracted the apk from a previous backup with the stock 4.0.3 rom. I didn't find any additional libs or anything but after rebooting the app didn't show up.
Also on a AOSP Rom as CM10.2 it is not very likely to get a HTC/Sense app running. Therefore I looked around and found another option: thr Spirit FM app
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059296
But here as well I wasn't lucky and didn't get any positive results...
If anybody has better luck or experience with the Spirit FM let me know, I'd be happy to have a simple FM radio back
