[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
I forgot to mention, I do also have the EQ settings in Poweramp tweaked a bit. Here are screenshots of my setup:

NOTE: After you get Poweramp set up the way you like it, I recommend saving it as an EQ preset by hitting the "Preset" button (see the third screenshot) and then hit save...you can then name it whatever you want (as you can see on the 1st two screenshots, I have mine saved as "Driving Viper", as you can set it to automatically switch EQ presets based on what type of device you're using to actually listen to the music - i have the lower freqs tuned just a bit lower while I'm connected to Bluetooth, as my Bose headphones handle bass a little healthier than my car speakers. Conversely, I have another setting called "Headphones" that it automatically switches to when I'm physically plugged in to an audio jack).

Once you have the preset(s) saved, you can continue to flash ROMs if you want - just restore data on PowerAmp using TiBu (personally I always use the "extract from Nandroid backup" option in TiBu and then choose "restore data only" after already installing Poweramp, as opposed to just restoring data from the app backup list) and boom - your settings should be right back the way they were before you flashed the new ROM.

Here are my settings for Viper (headphone and bluetooth) for anyone who isn't having luck flashing my settings zip:

Does this work for Rdio. Really liked beats option of my HTC one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
Should work for your entire system (ie all apps that produce sound). The easiest way to tell if it's working is to go into Viper while your music is playing and toggle the effects (the very top checkbox) on and off. If you hear a change in the sound, you know it's working :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Bataga:
Have you made any eq adjustments from the note? This thing sounds pretty good without the mod so I was wondering how much adjusting did you need to do? Glad to see over here :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
Hey man, glad to see you as well! And to be honest I've gotten hooked on Spotify and have been using that as my go-to music player recently...and it works perfectly because the app uses the system equalizer, which means when I click "Music Effects" it takes me straight to Viper.

But I did use Poweramp for a little while after getting my S4, and I replicated my in-app EQ settings as displayed above - and it still sounded great. And I started using this mod the day that I got my phone (after rooting, of course), even though I had to manually push all of the MBB files to /system since we didn't have a custom recovery yet...so I really haven't even tried it without the mod. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", as they say. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Underst8:
I installed the HiFi one after installing the FX and I am using both without a problem. Using with winamp if that helps. Couldn't get it to play happy with the stock music player.

Thanks so much for letting us know about this. I was disappointed with the S4 audio after coming from an Infuse with it's Wolfson chip and Voodoo Sound. I can't believe the rest of the world got a Wolfson chip in their S4...but thats another story.

Anyway, I'm very happy with the sound quality through my Grados now. I see lots of tweaking in my future.

Everyone should definitely click through to the Viper thread, as there are examples of settings and links to lots of convolver IR files.

You probably got a lot of questions on this but...

I do a bit of flashing, so I was able to get this working. It sounds WAY better than stock. I purchased Proamp as you suggested. I saved the Proamp profiles, and I saved the viper load effect file, so all the settings are saved.

My question is if there is a way for viper to start and open the profile along with Proamp. In other words, I have to keep going back to viper to turn the settings on. Is there a way to keep them on?

Thanks for your help, and the tip. This sounds is jacked in my Jeep! :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Tourney3p0:
The Viper program lists Headset, Phone Speaker, and Bluetooth. Do you know if the Samsung audio out via USB is covered under any of these?

I only use Google Play Music app with all access, so is there any point in getting the PowerAmp app? Should I just install Viper only?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Nexii:
In all honesty, I believe that GPAAM is not worth it. to begin, the app itself is not great, and the data usage is still insane. youd be better off just downloading the song. You buy PA if you want the kick ass eq. but thats about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] blyndfyre:
The app is poor, but the data usage is no concern as I'm always around WiFi.

Anyone know if this mod will work with Google Play Music? OP said it works with Spotify.

Heres what I did (runnung one of the mf3 based rooted roms)

Flash the mega beats

Install the viper fx app

Open it up and chose the cortex a9 neon driver

Deleted musicfx.apk and dspmanager.apk

Than created the directory /sdcard/ViPER4Android/Kernel/

Added the files from link in op

Then wiped cache and dalvic cache and flashed the viper setup...all though the settings didnt appear so applied them manually

Followed instructions as posted and this works great on Task's AOKP. Also put this on my Nexus 7 (1st edition, choose A8 for the V4A driver prompt) since I use that for bluetooth streaming music in my car. Very noticeable change in the quality of my music (heavy metal, hardcore, rock stuff). Sounds great on my $85 Bose headphones. Can't wait to see what it sounds like in my vehicle later on today!

Looking at all the different options and configurability, is this only useful for audiophiles or people who actually know what these settings affect? I would like a louder output and more clear sound, but all these customization options seem very confusing.

Ok...this kod is acting wierd...works but weird...when I first installed stock music player didnt work with it and I had tl use player pro which was fine

I actually like it better this way as now I can use the stock music lock widget instead of the player pro one so it all works out

THANK YOU!

Thanks so much CPA Poke! Using your ViPER profile and PowerAmp EQ settings as a base I was able to get an AMAZING audio profile on my S4 with Ultimate Ear TripleFi's. I ended up removing Megabass and using the new bass module in ViPER and it's mind blowing.

Thanks again,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Catchpen:
Sounds good man def. an improvement, (not a placebo eq preset bs) but I had to flatten out the eq's a little to trim all the bass for rock and alt rock.

The bass is definitely more "focused" tho, helps my stock truck speakers via Bluetooth.

Tip: If anyone wants more midrange/balanced sound for rock, guitars etc try out the "SPL Goldmike Impulse w Flair.irs" on the convolver Impulse Response.

I am using the same ROM and as I understand most everything is already there. All I had to do was download/extract/install the ViperFX apk from the link on the OP. On first run you have to choose which driver to use, "CortexA8 with NEON" is what I went with and things have been working fine. It does make a big difference with the sound. There are soo many options to play with! This MOD works much better than the BEATS, as it does not cut out after playing music for a while.

Thanks for sharing CPA Poke. Found this thread after learning about and installing ViPER4 earlier I'm wondering what CPU platform setting is best for our S4. I chose NEON A9. All settings seem to work but I don't have any Impulse Response profiles showing up. A popup message seems to show that no IR profiles are found. I'm new to the S4 and the directories are kind of baffling to me. I see "emulated" show up quite a bit, and don't know if I have a directory issue or if it is simply because I selected the wrong CPU platform when installing ViPER4. I had ViPER4 on stock rooted and now on ViSiON-X 2.0 and had the same experience with both.

edit: I installed from Playstore rather than direct APK.

The IR profiles that you seek would have had been available in the Step-9 file download however it is unavailable at this time and that's why you are missing them. There is nothing wrong on your end at all, see my previous post above and if the file(s) becomes available then you will be able to get the IR sample files.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] gravedigger76:
Will this MOD still work/useful without installing what's in step #9 since it looks like no one can get it downloaded?

9. Also, download this file (http://www.mediafire.com/?9am1sogfq9lm31d ), create the following folder path ( /sdcard/ViPER4Android/Kernel/ ) if it doesn't exist already, then extract the convolver files in the linked zip to the "Kernel" folder in order to enable the Convolver. Two important things to note when doing this: (1) make sure sure the names of the folders are EXACTLY as listed above. If either one isn't spelled correctly, then Viper will not be able to find the files to use in processing. (2) It will not work if you place the files on your external sd card ("/external_sd/", "/storage/sdcard1/"). Depending on which firmware you're running, the correct path will look like "/mnt/sdcard/", "/storage/sdcard0/", or just "/sdcard/" if you're using Root Explorer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CallMeAria:
If that link is to download the Convolver files then you can get them from the original ViPER4Android thread.

Hi,

2012 september I bought an One X and added the free storage we all got from HTC Yayy. But now I got the One for a couple weeks. I guess we also get some free storage as well with the One. But can I add this extra storage to my present Dropbox account?

There's a promotion that gives you 25GB of free Dropbox space for 2 years.

It doesn't work on all carriers, though. I have AT&T, and they specifically opted out of the promotion. Even running an international ROM that had the setup wizard mention the 25GB didn't get it to trigger.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdprotacio:
It will not be claimable since you can avail only once. I just wish that they at least extend the free 25gb to another 2 years.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LestatMK:
As I came across the exact same situation, and after some search, it is perfectly clear through the promotion's specifics on dropbox site that you can only have ONE promotion applied per dropbox account. The promotion includes HTC sense UI 4-5 versions. So as I had the exact One X promotion applied last year, I can not apply this year's sense 5 promotion to the same account. Please note tha the promotion is valid for 2 years after application, and for sence 5 it is valid if applied up to the end of 2014. So in my case the promotion from One X will be void next year around May, so hopefully if I still possess the phone I will be able to use another 25GB for 2 years more. Just to mention, although I can not use 2 Sense promos on the same time, I did use Samsung promo for 48GB with the same account. Hope I helped a bit! :fingers-crossed:
