You’ll also need to have
Terminal Emulator installed. This
app lets you access your Android’s
built-in Linux command-line shell.
It’s available from the Google Play
Store. It’s free to download, so grab
it. Once it’s loaded up on your
device you’re all set to start
installing AwesomeBEATS.


2 Get an emulator
Now you need to download
the ZIP file containing
AwesomeBEATS. Head on over to
this URL (d-h.st/L9l) and download
the file. Make sure that you
remember where you have saved
the ZIP file, because you’re going
to have to flash it to your device in
the not too distant future.

3 Download the ZIP


Now you need to restart your device
in recovery mode. We’re going to
flash the AwesomeBEATS.apk from
the ZIP you just downloaded. There
are a variety of different
bootloaders, so it’s best that you’re
familiar with the program on your
device and how it works.

Restart in

One step in the flashing process will
ask you what ROM you’re using. It’s
important that you make the right
choice here otherwise it’s likely that
the installation won’t work. Once
you restart the system, you should
see an AwesomeBEATS app icon in
your app drawer.

When the terminal comes
up, you will need to gain superuser
permission from it. Wait a moment
so that everything is loaded and
then when you see the chunky
cursor, type in SU and push the
Enter key. A notification should
now flash up telling you that you’ve
now got access.


7 Get SU access
Now you need to tell the
system what it actually needs to
mount. Simply type in awesome
and then push the Enter key. It
might take a while but a series of
commands will then proceed to
flash up on the terminal. After about
a minute of waiting the app should
be mounted onto the system.

8 Mount the app
Last but not least you will
need to reboot the system from
within the terminal for the changes
to take place. All you need to to do
is type in reboot and then push the
Enter key. This will reboot your
system, and after a while you
should be taken back to your home
screen as per usual.

9 Reboot
Head back to your app
drawer and go into the
AwesomeBEATS app. Now you can
start tweaking around with your
audio settings to get some
impressive sounds out of your
device. Just make sure you enable
the app for different settings using
the check boxes.
