Not needed, mate... It really blasts my ears with joy. Sounds awesome. Don't think Dolby can do any better than this... Haven't tested on my BT headset yet, though.

Damn, it sounds good along with your toolbox... Thx a lot, buddy ?

Hey smeejaytee,

I was wondering if you had any update on this? If not, I'm tempted to install Viper4Android and play around with the IRS files. What do you think?

Thanks again for the help!
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Still working on it mate but making progress,

V4a can help a lot no harm installing it mate.
[One (M8) General] Python.:
Ah, no problem. I just wanted to check in.

In that case, I'll install V4A in the meantime. For the future, would you recommend using it with ARISE?

Secondly, what IRS files would you suggest for V4A? Vinardo_ZzZ 2000's files? If so, which one of his settings?

Thanks for all the help :)
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
I really like the one I use in my toolbox dax open, I'd arise working for you then, if yes I would totally recommend it lol.
[One (M8) General] Python.:
Arise isn't working. I was just thinking about if I should use V4A (on it's own) instead of ARISE.

Anyway, I decided to try the HK Switcher. It didn't work. I ended up in a bootloop. Even flashing Boomsound on the switcher didn't help. So, in the end, I had to factory reset in TWRP. So, it doesn't seem like it's safe to use HK Switcher if you're S-On.

I'm trying to recover as much as I can before deciding what to do. I'll let you know if I find anything helpful
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
What rom are you on again sorry mate?
[One (M8) General] Python.:
ViperOneM8

I should have backed up the entire phone before messing with stuff. I've recovered most of the important stuff. Now, I'm just reinstalling the Viper ROM
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
If you read the hk thread the swithcher doesn't work with viper mate.
[One (M8) General] Python.:
I thought you said it would most probably work. That adsp ('the dangerous bit') would not flash due to s-on. That the only issue would be that I wouldn't get the full benefit of HK since the adsp wouldn't be flashed. Or did I misunderstand you?
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
It would have worked had you not been using viper it would work if you were on say LeeDroid or ice, with srom there would be no need anyway
[One (M8) General] Python.:
So, in your opinion, what is the best sound mod for Viper (with S-On)? I'm looking at AcoustiX or ReHear. What do you think?
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Definitely acoustic x mate imo although rehear is good but don't use both as they will override each other
[One (M8) General] Python.:
This is a bit strange. I had reinstalled ViperOneM8.

I was going to install AcousticX but decided to flash ARISE to see what would happen. And it seems to be working. I've got Atmos and Viper4Android both installed. Is there any way to check if ARISE as been installed probably? I thought it shouldn't work with Boomsound/S-On. Any idea what is happening?

Thanks again for the help!
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Which version of arise did you flash?

The thing with arise is it goes through a testing phase before the final release so some versions may work some may not, to be sure it's installed look in the system folder at the bottom using a root explorer and you should see a document saying arise version number open it and it will tell you
[One (M8) General] Python.:
I used Leviticus 1.3. But, I can't seem to find the file. I'm using a FX File Browser with root. What's the full name of the file?
[One (M8) General] Python.:
Thanks for the screenshot! It was my fault: I wasn't looking in /system. Anyway, I found the file. I opened it and it says 'Leviticus 1.3 20160725'. Hope that helps.

So, does this mean that ARISE is installed properly?
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Yes mate your all good, have you tried numbers with boomsound I think I remember you saying you had only I've been a bit busy to test atm
[One (M8) General] Python.:
Afraid not. I only managed to try Leviticus 1.3 on Venom. But, as it working, I'm planning on leaving it. Especially since the M8 is a daily driver.

Thanks for all the help smeejaytee! I really appreciate it

[One (M8) General] wasim9283:
I'm on ice rom, s-on , can I change from boom sound to jbl/HK, actually for trying latest arise sound mod, as it's not working with boom sound, stuck on Android starting, after flashing.
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Yes you can flash the switcher, I'd suggest jbl mate, hk can cause stutter with s_on as adsp isn't flashed.
[One (M8) General] wasim9283:
Which one? The famous thread is asking s-off only
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
They have to say that for safety but the fact is the adsp will not flash with s-on, another reason they say that it because you won't get the full sound system when your s-on because the adsp is needed for the to get the full effect, however in this case you not using hk or jbl for its full system your using it for these purpose of flashing arise so this isn't an issue for you lol,

I would still say to go with jbl as I'd imagine it's more stable with s-on because it's more like boomsound in the fact that it's just an eq.

I have seen many people say that they have flashed the switcher with no issues but the choice is yours whether to flash it.

And make sure to not try to flash adsp in the aroma installer
[One (M8) General] wasim9283:
Ok will try jbl , thanks
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Please fully read my last post as I edited it,

Make sure to not choose to flash adsp in aroma, this is the safest option
[One (M8) General] wasim9283:
Ok thanks I have flashed the same with jbl and without adsl, reboot and there was no sound from speakers, but I didn't test much and directly flashed arise with Dolby, now it's working, sound little less from speakers ????, not yet tested in headphones, thanks for guide
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
No problem, I'm so glad you saw my warning, I was worried lol.
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Try some irs some of them boost speakers nicely, zhuhangs boomsound irs it good as its made from the m8 sound signature

Now enjoying arise 3.3 numbers with Dolby Atmos GUI and viper, but sometimes music player stops by itself, not showing any messages for force close or anything, just stops playing and app closing as well.
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:

[One (M8) General] wasim9283:

[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Try another player, though I never had this issue, what rom do you use, Srom works perfectly with arise, I can highly recommend jw 5.4.0

After few days of using, I'm not very impressed, I have tried many mod, this arise been latest, but I think I'm not setting up, have been using viper sound mod since I had Sony Ericsson arc s, I can say I know viper since long, but on htc m8 the sound although improving by sound mods but not to my liking, either too much clarity in treble making uneasy feeling, or too much bass I never liked. :eek:
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
You can adjust and tweak the sound too your listening preference mate, have you tried my toolbox yet, obviously it's tuned for m8 so you might find it more pleasant on your ears.

Although we now know if you don't flash asap 8 aroma s_on users are safe to flash the hk switcher!!!

So if you're s on and flash, you don't get the adsp. But you get the values changed from boom sound yes? "

[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
My advice would be arise mate but you would need to flash hk switcher,

Please when flashing remember to not flash adsp if you do this!!!

But there are many other mods to choose from lots can be found in my op or as I could do with updating the op you can find others in xda Android development section.

Guys I will update the op with all the latest mods but it's pretty hard for me to test now as I'm always busy with arise or my booster, if any of you don't use arise feel free to share your experiences with other mods so I can add the ones that actually work to the op thanks guys.

Hey guys! I'm sorry if this question has already been answered, but search didn't help. Is there any way to increase the quality of internal speakers on CM-based ROMs? I have read that these roms have a pretty ****ty sound. So this is the only reason why i stay with the GPE rom. Is there any soundmod that works kinda like boomsound with amplifying the speakers' sound? Btw i'm S-ON:)
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
I'd suggest you try arise, with arise and a good v4a profile you should be able to get a good sound from internal speakers,

You will need to flash the hk switcher before you flash arise though,

Make sure though when you flash the switcher that you don't select asap as it will not work for s-on and could cause problems.

Hope this helps

Leedroid installation

Hi

I've recently returned to Leedroid (r56) on my HTC M8 (International, S-On) after dabbling with a couple of nougat roms.

I'm sure that I had A.R.I.S.E. working on a previous Leedroid release, but having no luck flashing Deuteronomy 2.3.3.

I've read here that HK something or other is needed first if boomsound is installed on an M8.

I'm not sure what that means.

Any help getting me back on track would be greatly appreciated.

cheers.

---------- Post added at 01:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

Sorry, forgot to mention the problem.

Reboots to Leedroid splash screen and hangs there.

I've tried several combinations of wipes and reboots but have now reverted to pre-install backup.
[One (M8) General] redpoint73:
I read similar, to use HK Switcher to get V4A (or similar sound mods like ARISE and Deuteronomy) to work.

Here is the switcher, but it is s-off is mandatory: https://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/development/mod-audio-hk-bs-aroma-switcher-4-1-0-t3035354

Try to:

1) Set SELinux to permissive. I used a TWRP-flashable zip (m8 specific) to do this. Can't find it right now, but I'll keep looking. Some ROMs may already implement this? Not sure.

2) With a root explorer, go to system/etc, find htc_audio_effects.conf and rename to htc_audio_effects.conf.bak

After doing the above 2 things, try to install the mod and drivers again.
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
It works fine with son of you flush arise after but it is a must that you don't flash adsp on the aroma installer as that is the dangerous part, hope this helps and makes sense.
[One (M8) General] cruiser33:
sorry, not flashing adsp when flashing leedroid or ARISE?
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
S-on users are fine to flash the switcher it works if you flash arise afterwards but when installing the switcher don't choose the option to flash the adsp as that is the part that can cause issues, though tbh it won't flash anyway as with s-on that position of the phone can not be accessed anyway.
[One (M8) General] cruiser33:
thanks, I think I've got it now.
[One (M8) General] cruiser33:
I'm really sorry for not understanding this.

I did the following:

1. flashed the switcher - selected NO adsp, selected HK - maybe this should have been BoomSound. But somewhere else it said that BS would be problematic.

also selected the ARISE option (if that's what it was called)

2. wiped caches

3. Flashed Deuteronomy

4. wiped caches

5. rebooted.

same result - stuck on the Leedroid splash screen.
[One (M8) General] redpoint73:
The HK Switcher alone didn't fix ARISE for me. Try what I suggested before: SELinux to permissive, and rename htc_audio_effects.conf

I don't know if its one of those, or both that fixed it. But after doing those things, ARISE worked fine (and loving it).

Although my issue was somewhat different, I am using ICE ROM, and it booted fine after flashing ARISE. But the drivers would not install when starting ARISE.

Also as mentioned, I'm using ARISE vs. Deuteronomy

But in any case, the steps I outlined are easy, so therefore worth a try at least.

EDIT: I believe the permissive.zip on the following post, is the one I used (flash in TWRP): https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63367184&postcount=20367
[One (M8) General] smeejaytee:
Not sure why the procedure is not working correctly for you guys but I'll state it again incase I said it wrong lol,

Firstly flash ROM then flash the HK switcher with HK or jbl but don't flash adsp then flash arise and it should boot, I do think I read somewhere though that HK doesn't work on leedroid anymore if so that would be the issue,

Also removing or renaming HTC audio conf is an old hack from when mm first landed as v4a drivers wouldn't install but it has since been fixed as must newer v4a installers note patch this file so that it still works, it stands to reason HTC added this configuration file for a reason and removing it would mean a decrease in sound quality (maybe lol), this is just a heads up as your free to do whatever works for you, I hope this helps as it's never been an issue in the past this has been the work around since arise first came to light.
[One (M8) General] cruiser33:
Thanks for the clarification. I really appreciate the time you guys spend supporting us.
