Are you able to use boomsound with Viper?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Masa6GCS:
I have Viper installed as well. Sounds great. The option for boomsound is still checked in the settings so I am assuming it is still working.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Deleted member 5019868:
Did you disable LPA?

Edit: Like Masa stated above, BoomSound works with V4A simultaneously.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] typeriz:
Never mind, figured it out

I am as well using viper with boomsound simultaneously & the sound is fantastic

Hey what settings are you using? I'd like to see what best compliments the M8's DAC.

Also, not to beat a dead horse, but did you disable LPA?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Where can we download Viper4Android mod? Is this a simple install and works type of tweak or do you have to manually tweak every little setting? I'm not a big audio techy so not sure even what do adjust? Any difference with bluetooth headsets?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
It's a mod that you enable and can manually adjust the settings to your liking. I'll add the link in OP.

Installation

1. Install latest viper

2. Open and click install

3. Choose your audio quality (high quality is my choice all the time, choice is yours)

4. Allow root

5. It'll say reboot Press OK

6. Press OK on disable LPA

7. Press OK to clear the change log

8. Hit setting and change UI Setting to expert

9. Reboot

10. There are IRS files you can use to give Viper preset setups (Directory is Sdcard/ViPER4Android/Kernel)

If you guys want I can upload my zip of IRS files I like
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Thank you for the info! I'm new to all this audio tweaking so just enabled a couple things and figured i'd start from there and tweak as needed?

Sure on the IRS files (don't know what those are though), assuming those are audio profiles you set for different kinds of music? If so, how would we upload them to our phones and the app? Thanks!

Directory and irs files are in OP

After installing Viper, is there a way to fully uninstall it? I tried to yesterday and it messed up my microphone audio and had to do a factory reset.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ddodge68:
Does this have any effect on Pandora radio? I know that some audio mods do not....at least they didn't on my old Moto phones.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
I don't see why not? It installs audio drivers into the device with the software. As long as you have viper4android running in background, it is in full effect for any audio via bluetooth, dual speakers, or earpiece speaker ;).

I use the latest Jawbone bluetooth headset and don't notice much a difference but again only use this to make calls. I notice a difference in my car via bluetooth using the stock htc music player. Give it a try, worst that could happen is you have to uninstall it ;).
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ddodge68:
Please forgive my ignorance, but this only affects bluetooth audio???
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] grunt6:
It works on speakers, headphones and bluetooth. It works with Pandora also.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Anyone use this andusegoogke voice app for their visual voicemail? Usinglatedt Venom Rom and verizon visual voicemail doesn't not work. I then setup a Google voice account t and now use that with voice app. When checking a voicemail in voice app the play back volume is very low even though volume is turned all the way up. I think only diffrence was installing this app and drivers it requires.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tookah:
Does anyone know how make it work with rdio ?

Mine only works on Pandora and other players ...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Sorry for being a little slow but the path u have is for the download. Now that I have extracted the files, where do I copy them to so viper4android app can find these?

In the app once files are placed correctly I assume I hit menu then load profile and they will show up there?

Picture is of download. There is no viper4android folders anywhere on my device after full install and reboot so not sure where these files go?

---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 PM ----------

There was no kernal folder in the path you specified so I just copied the entire kernal folder from your download to the destination u stated. I open the app, load preset, none of the presets are there as an option. Just the 1 preset I manually made myself and saved.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
Ok here are pics to show. First make sure you copied like my directory in the pic. Then enable expert mode in UI Setting, then go down to convolver and check it then you'll be able to change the IRS files.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Recon0212:
Anyone have trouble with microphone audio after installing this?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Thank you, perfect! Do you have any suggestions?

Looking for a setting for Bluetooth connection in the car playing audio mainly hip hop and rock and roll and some heavy metal.

what would u suggest for the external BoomSound speakers?

Do you alter the headset at all and if so to what?

It's hard for me to get it right with some many options. Other day Sat in car for over an hour playing music via Bluetooth and playing with the options. Honestly couldn't find anything better than stock the way it sounds if u turn viper4android off. Just want clear vocals with some bass but neither greatly overpowering the other. Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
This is because HTC has invested a huge amount of time tweaking their BoomSound to get that clarity produced from the speakers. Lots of people underestimate the R&D that goes into a wide variety of products. Without V4A, my audio including vocals are already crisp. HTC wouldn't promote their audio as much as they do if they neglected their audio from a software and hardware standpoint.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sean67854:
I am very interested in this. However as someone alluded to above, is there a documented uninstall process. I'm a little concerned about the reports of mic audio being screwed up as well as the disabling of LPA.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schwartz.matthew.e:
It's very good. I didn't disable lpa. My Mic is fine.

Or do a different ROM and put the hk mod on it.

---------- Post added at 05:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 AM ----------

I have an xml file I can send you that has beats and hk enabled. I would disable the beats so it doesn't conflict ;)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tdnookhd:
I installed this on my M8 running CyanogenMod, but none of the settings sound good on max volume. In fact, it kind of sounds like crap when its all the way up. How do I make this sound as good as BoomSound in Sense?

That's a cm problem not viper.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J Double You:
Convolver not working for me....

Hi all,

Is anyone else having an issue with the convolver? That and Field Surround?

I have tried Stock, SkyDragon twice, one with Sound Explosion Mod and the other time with Project ERA, I'm now on my third installation after stock and I'm on ViperOne M8 ROM.

It's been the same issue on each ROM. No convolver!

I made sure to try all the compatibility tweaks like disabling LPA, installing as a system app and even installing an older version of Viper4Android but nothing has worked!

Have I missed something?

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Best regards

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

To be clear, I have been using V4A for nearly two years now so I know we need to enabled expert mode in the UI, that's already done. I have also put all the IRS samples in the kernel folder and they are detected by V4A.

Selecting a sample and enabling convolver seems to make no difference.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J Double You:
In answer to my own question, it helps if you have the IRS files directly in the kernel folder.

I had batch extracted a few IRS zips to the folder but they were extracted with sub folders. They were showing in the list in V4A but selecting the IRS same did nothing.

Anyway, glad it's sorted. Wooohooo!!

Let this be a lesson......

Viper4Android Static

Installed Viper4Android on my HTC One M8 and disabled BoomSound. It sounds exponentially better, but I have some definite static/crackle in my earbuds with it engaged.

I removed the driver and rebooted to check to see if the problem exists without Viper4Android, and it doesn't...

Any ideas? ﻿

not sure if i need the flame shield but i searched and didnt see the answer. My app wont install drivers. Im using the xhifi version on my htc one m8 and it says "Driver install failed, please confirm your phone has been rooted and busybox is installed" Im on viper 1.8 with Harmon K installed.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] solastalgia:
Has anyone been able to get V4A working with Winamp?

Works like a charm on the stock music application, but even after installing V4A as a system app it just won't apply any effects to Winamp - using the force option doesn't do anything, either.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] suicidal acorn:
Try changing compatibility mode back and forth and see if either one works. I couldn't get V4A to work with Pandora until I turned it to "normal."
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Lil_Young:

After installing everything works perfectly except for one issue. I can't change my volume. Volume stays at maximum until I hit half volume on the volume bar, at which time the volume completely cuts off. It is an htc one m8 on stock 4.4.2 with s-off. Anyone else with these issues?

You have to actually make the folder yourself in the correct location. I haven't used Viper for a while and can't remember where exactly, but the instructions are laid out in their thread or in the app.

I have a question regarding Viper4android on HTC One m8 (Viper rom).

My settings for headphone work flawlessy, but when i change the power gain for speakers it just doesnt change anything at all..i cant boost sound from speaker, the only thing thats working is equalizer - i can adjust for vocal or something and its hearable, but for 'power up speaker' it just doesnt work, is there a way 2 change it? On my previous Galaxy s 3 it has been working great...i wanted to have loud phone :/

Regards and thanks for helping.

I I got root but not s-off

any way to get this to work on s-on with skydragon 5,0 lollipop
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] berndblb:
You cannot flash custom roms if not S-off.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] m112:
of course you can flash custom rom with s-on
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] robocuff:
Maybe on a GPS, international or some other carrier version you can but you aren't going you be able to flash any rom on a VZW branded version of the phone.

Only way that would be possible would be to get s-off and along with that your bootloader unlocked. Then set the phone back to s-on while leaving the bootloader unlocked which wouldn't make a whole lot of sense.

If you want to flash roms on a Verizon phone you need to have your bootloader unlocked. The only way to do that at this time is to run sunshine which would get you s-off and an unlocked bootloader.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] m112:
thanks for explanation, indeed I was thinking about int ver.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] berndblb:
Not on the VZW M8 you can't. And that's where you are posting

Running Android 5.0.1 on my Sprint M8. Went thru all the steps listed in the OP. Driver status still reports V4A is not processing. I know I modded the build.prop correctly and have SELinux set to permissive. Not sure what else to double check.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pedrospdc:
I was having the same issue and I noticed it was only happening with Spotify.

On any case, try setting it to compatible mode (V4A -> Menu -> FX Compatible Mode) and restart it. Worked for me. (I spend 2 days to get this **** working)

In persiut of cylindrical blue battery module for our Tmobile S4.

Main Wanam Xposed Samsung touchwiz mod that you install initially only comes with a circle mod battery icon, can't stand it, would like to have same stock size and shape icon but in blue, instead of the ghostly white.

You get an option to change colors on the other icons in the status bar expect the battery? ?

Could someone give me an idea the easiest way to load music onto my Truesmart? Thanks for any help I can get on this.. Gene
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
Patch it first or install Dees BT ROM.

Connect it to your PC and select mass storage mode.

Copy music to the "Music" folder on your device
[Ornate TrueSmart] porzerwolle:
You can use "Airdroid" to copy your files (music, pics, vids) wirelessly to your TS.

Airdroid is available in PlayStore. I patched my TS with Gapps so I have the store on my device.
[Ornate TrueSmart] cdrom1028:
The only thing I can add to this is if you have added the SDCARD.

I use RDIO, On the login screen you can point the storage to a custom location, like maybe a folder on the sdcard..

I have over 1000 songs synced from Rdio plus all my Podcasts that are synced automatically using BeyondPod. wether you

manage your own stuff (drag and drop over usb) our use a service (RDIO, Spotify, Play Music, etc) I recommend you consider the extra storage.
[Ornate TrueSmart] sickysickybrah:
I don't have bluetooth on my computer, so I tried airdroid. I never had a problem with airdroid on my HP touchpad tablet, but for some reason I could not get it to load to my truesmart. I ended up paying under $2 for wifi file transfer pro. The interface is easy to use and I copied about 12GB of music to my truesmart in about an hour over my wifi network.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Len Meahan:
Another wireless option (free)

I use ES File Explorer to move all kinds of files all over the place wirelessly, whether on computers on my Wifi network (LAN) or in the cloud.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Jarocks:
I use Media Monkey and USB Mass Storage mode (mtp is buggy and unreliable). Also Spotify in offline mode works great, or online mode if you have 3G and get good reception in your area.
