How to get rid of your beats audio notification!!!

**bntran02** · 06-13-2012, 09:31 AM

So happy I found this. I hate the icon. It takes up precious space. Plus I leave beats audio off at all times so why the hell do I need a quick access to turn it on/off? Here's how I got rid of the icon.

Settings ->Apps->All->HtcBeatsNotify->Disable.

You can also disable many other things like 'Sprint Music Plus'.

Hm i may do this.

I couldn't disable Sprint Music Plus. There was only the option to Force Stop it (which presumably it will just auto-start again later.)

I tried to do the same for Sprint Zone, and Disable was grayed out.

Uninstall all updates then the option to disable will be there.

Is there a way to just disable the icon and not the entire program?

I'm pretty sure that's all it does. You're disabling the notification, not the whole software package.

Cool, but how do you re-enable it? SInce I disabled it, it is not visible in the app list anymore

**PREvision** · 06-13-2012, 06:06 PM

Found it, that was a stupid question.

The HTC beats notification is cool! Why disable it.

I can see it being a bit bothersome. I like Beats though, nice addition to the phone. Sounds great playing through my auxiliary cable to my home system.

I don't mind the icon being there when I'm listening to music... It just reminds me that my music is probably sounding better than everyone else's.

Ditto. Not sure why anyone would want to disable it.

It only disables the Icon and I just confirmed this. The software package will still run and you can still adjust it at settings->Sound->Sound enhancer.

The icon is all preference and I prefer a clutter-free interface. Whether is actually improves the sound quality is subjective and personal preference. I just prefer to use PowerAmp's equalizer.
