What happens when you’re a DOLBY effects fan but you don’t have a phone that doesn’t come shipped with it? It seems you’ve stumbled upon to the ideal post. You can still have authentic DOLBY equalizer once you flash this goodie.
First things first, this is the DOLBY Atmos sound effect that has been ported from a Lenovo ROM. On testing, it has been found to be working on all devices that are Android 4.3 onwards. It may, however, conflict with other effects/equalizers that you have already installed. This zip will edit (not overwrite) your audio effects module. This is a Mod version which indicates it isn’t meant to exist but the good things about modded tweaks is that they open doors you didn’t know existed. like having a budget android phone and flashing this will give you respectable music output.
Here’s a chronology of the development so far:
R1: initial Release
R4: fixed compatibility for Android 4.x in Ds.apk & DsUI.apk, conflicts resolved with DOLBY libraries
R5: Demo video removed & size minimized to 3MB
R6.1: renamed DS & AS to resolve conflicts, dirty flash to avoid conflicts with the prior version
R6.2: patches to bypass badly implemented audio mods that create overwrite issues
R6.3 added permissions in the installer script
R6.5: Fixes for permissions, audio effects on some devices, removal of As
The current version (R6.5) is said to be stable and has a recent release date 20-06-2015 which indicate updates & progress on improvements are well in place.
How to install:
Simply stated, it’s recommended to do it on a fresh ROM to avoid conflicts. simply flash the zip file [download links below] after flashing the needed stuff [ROM, GApps, SuperSU] in recovery mode. and it must work well.
If somehow, things do go south, the team has been caring enough to supply an Uninstall ZIP as well. simply go back to recovery mode and flash the Uninstall Zip. Do go ahead and check out the source link below and give them a thumbs up for their hard work. If you are on a custom-made ROM that has its own Equalizer, this may not work, which makes sense because there will be conflict. Also, this is indicated for those who don’t have authentic audio settings in the first place. but according to the XDA discussion, updates are in order. Do let us know if you reached a configuration that is just perfect.
DOLBY!! (we indicate Cheers!!)
