[APP]-Apollo and DSP Manager for 4.4 - Updated (4-12-2013)

tomvs16 · Nov 19, 2013

Hi Guys,

I have bundled DSP Manager and Apollo. It also includes the libs for DSP Manager. It removes MusicFX.apk.

It should work on all roms for Nexus 5. It only works for locally stored files and will not work with bluetooth etc.

Working:
Apollo and themes.
DSP Manager

Not working:
You tell me !

Flash instructions:
Download Zip
Place on SD card
Boot to recovery
Install ZIP file
Reboot
Enjoy!

Let me know if you like it and hit thanks !

Edit: Added new zip, this only includes DSP Manager for those who do not like Apollo.

Credits:
Cyanogenmod - for providing Apollo, DSP Manager and libs.

I got an error during Flashing using TWRP.
E:Error executing updater binary in zip
Error flashing zip (file location)

i know TWRP is having issues...so I'm going to try updating it (haven't updated since it was first available) hoping someone with CWM will test this out to see if it is a ZIP problem or a TWRP problem.

EDIT: i was already on the latest TWRP

Just tried to flash on my nexus 5 with CWM and it errors:

E:Error in /data/media/0/DSP+Apollo_Tomvs16_N5.zip
(Status 6)
Installation aborted.

OK, seems to be a problem with the ZIP then.
hoping OP can fix this. i have some serious BT high volume issues and DSP is pretty much my last hope. i hate having to adjust the EQ all the time for wired and BT volume fixes....ugh

I tested DSPmanager without its libraries and seems to work

really? that goes against everything i have heard/read....but I'm willing to give it a try.

what did you do? extract the APK from the ZIP and install in system/app and give correct permissions and it was working?

Edit: just installed the APK as mentioned above without libs and it isn't working over BT. didn't try wired though.

Will try to fix zip tonight. Have a lot to do. DSP Manager does not work without out libs. It starts and stuf, but the missing libs mean that it can't do anything.

Edit: Uploaded new zip, should be fine now.

Zip file was not stored well. I took the liberty to correct it. I have to test their functionality but now at least it can be flashed.

SORRY FOR MY BAD BAD BAD ENGLISH!

OK, the new one flashes just fine.
however, when messing with the settings (both wired headset and Bluetooth) I can't say that it is actually working. admitidly, my hearing is not 100% but whenever i would play with it in the past, and i would switch compression strength, it would cut the audio for a split second and i could hear the difference. also, switching EQ presets, using Bass Boost, changing virtual Rooms ect, I dont hear a difference at all.

is this (DSP manager and Libs) just not quite ready for 4.4 yet?

I used all the audio configs from CM11 and libs from CM11. I would guess this is the problem. But unforunately I do not own an Nexus 5. So I can't test this myself.

nope, I was mistaken. it is working on locally stored files through apollo.
i just though it worked through streaming music from Google music, pandora or Songza but aparently not.....sadface

Pandora uses his own audio decoder, so that wouldn't work. And indeed, it only works for locally stored files. I don't know if Cyanogenmod will ever implement this in DSP Manager. So for now, just use Apollo.

Downloaded and flashed, working like a dream

Bass-boot , dinamic range compressor , eq seem to work but Sometimes there are crashes and freeze audio

That's odd, I've always used the DSP manager with my Google Play Music sub and it has worked great with the streaming media.

Why got this thread renamed with a new datum? Was there an update?
