System-wide enhancement not working on Intel-based device?

I'm now having a problem that ViPER seems not to working for all apps on Intel-based device. Currently, my Dell Venue 7 (3740) only takes effect of the enhancement I made on ViPER when I listen to music, otherwise, nothing happened. On my HTC Desire (A8181) and Alcatel OneTouch Idol OT-6030D ViPER take effect in everything that makes sound, from music; video; web player; apps; ringtones; etc. but on the 3740 ViPER only works when I open a music player or when I play music on browser.

I also noticed that ViPER (2.3.4.0, I got it from Viper Audio page) on my 3740 did not give the option to choose the quality of the driver and it didn't require BusyBox to run (???).

Can somebody please explain what is happening and how can I make ViPER as System-wide enhancement for everything on the 3740 and perhaps other Intel-based device?

Samsung 10.1 (2014) - Driver install failed

I'm and Andoid nooby and I'm attempting to run V4A on a Samsung SM-P600 (10.1 2014) and keep getting the "Driver install failed: The busybox installation found on your device does not work" message.

The device is running a root version of 4.4.2 (build KOT49H.P600UEUCOB1) - the RootChecker application confirms that Root access is properly installed on the device.

BusyBox Pro is installed - the application indicates that version 1.23.2-Stericson is installed in /system/bin and the BusyBox Checker application confirms that BusyBox is available in /system/xbin

SuperSU is installed and the application lists BusyBox Pro and V4A FX as registered applications.

All of the applications have been installed via Google Play (except the root) and I've also attempted a sideways install of V4A, but with no improvement.

I've pretty much exhausted everything I can think of and I really want to get V4A up and running, so if anyone has any ideas on what else I could try I'll be very keen to try them.

TIA

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peri Noid:
I'm using v4a on my Note 3, running stock 4.4 KitKat (rooted of course). I'm using only graphical equalizer and a bit of basic boost. It generally works, but from time to time I can hear such behavior, that the song is started as it should, but after a short time (about 5 seconds) all the influence of v4a is suddenly dropped and the song continues without any effects. It simply seems as if v4a processing is suddenly excluded from the sound path. Rewinding it or playing from the beginning changes nothing, but if I go another song, v4a starts working again. Then I can go back to the previous song and it is played with v4a effects. Until the next "crash".

Is such behavior known? I'd like to debug it somehow, but I don't know, how to gather logs.

Viper not working on moto g cm 12.1

Hi guys, please help me.. I ve the latest cm 12.1 nightly on my moto g, i ve installed viper like i did on previous ROM (gpe 5.1 Motorola original ROM) using busybox, changing Selinuxmode yo permessive, flashed viper, soundlibs and build.prop tweaks, and installed the driver.

All is working, the driver appears to be correctly installed, all voices are yes, supported, enabled, but in "Processing" when i'm using spotify or another player, it says me "Processing: no". How can it be? If the driver is installed correctly?

I post here a screen of the driver status. This is when spotify is playing.

Strange observation

Hi,

I am new to this topic, I just got my LG G (E975) rooted and V4A FX and XHIFI setup yesterday.

Some data:

Poweramp 2.0.10-build-581-play

LG G E975 with E97520a-H3G-XX and Android 4.4.2

V4A FX 2.3.4.0

V4A XHIFI 2.1.0.2

Sennheiser CX 271 (in ear)

I could not get it run with correct driver status so I did the workaround with the following settings:

Poweramp: direct sound control ON, MusicFX ON

V4A FX: Compatible Mode ON, Force enable V4A: ON (driver status n/a, as known)

It worked fine, I tweaked the V4A FX settings to my taste and the sound was mindblowing. Fantastic crisp precise bass (for what hardware I use), nice highs, mids lifted a bit with firequalizer, stage widened to some extent (which is nice since IEs sound pretty narrow), all in all a sound that gave me goose bumps

my settings:

PlaybackAGC enabled, slight, 2x, max out -1.9dB

Firequalizer custom for the mids only

Dynamic system enabled, common earphones (2), 20%

Viper Clarity enabled, Mode natural, 6.0dB

no more settings since I like it simple and not overtweaked.

I tested with my standard test music to test hifi hardware for electronic music. Its FLAC 24/96, Album Carbonic Island by FreshMoods (german sound designer, album recorded at 24/96). It has various samples in its songs that are perfect for driving systems to their limit, like a rolling thunder with incredibly deep bass, etc.

I made two observations: (1) I still had to crank the volume up to 80-90% (2) in clarity the mode "XHIFI" lifted the highs sounding clearer but at the same time severly truncated the bass making it impossible to use, therefore I ended up using natural mode (as mentioned above).

Today I figured the correct settings:

Poweramp: direct sound control OFF, MusicFX OFF

V4A FX: FX Compatible Mode: Normal, Force Enable V4A

Driver status:

Driver Version: 2.3.4.0

NEON Enabled: Yes

Enabled: Yes

Status: Normal

Audio Format: Supported

Processing: Yes

Sampling Rate: 48000

same settings as mentioned above (my settings)

I had to turn volume down to 50% (max) because it became so loud after turning direct sound control OFF. Apart from the volume, the main thing that happened was that the overall sound experience suffered a lot. The bass blared (we call it like that in german) all over the place, losing its crispness and disturbing the perception of the mids and the highs. Even after disabling dynamic system, it sounded terrible compared to my "first day" settings. As a result I had to swith to XHIFI in clarity which helped a bit but made the highs sound metallic, and again affecting the bass (but to a lesser extent).

My question is whether anybody can make a sense out of this behaviour/observation. Shall I go for the "I take what sounds best"-option and use my first day settings or am I overlooking something and should still be using the regular settings with direct sound control off, etc?

Cheers,

Chris

V4A doesn't work will all apps

V4A did actually work for a while, but who knows what I did and it stopped working all over the system. System sounds like typing and screen locking sounds aren't affected by V4A anymore. Games like Jetpack joyride and Love live school idol festival also don't work with it. Pretty much every other app that I have including: youtube, browser, poweramp, clash of clans, etc. work. I'm on android 4.4.2 btw.

Any way to fix this? Thanks in advance.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wildcard1077:
I am having an issue that maybe you all can help with. Running ATT One M8 - CM 12 snapshot (20150625), Viper installed properly. It is working properly for the most part. But here is the issue:

Using Spotify, Any time I start music (from pause), or skip or scan a song (any type of command that will change the song, ect) the audio starts in an un modified sound for about 1 second. While this does constantly remind me how awesome ViPER is, it is very distracting to have that one second of unmodified sound, the music then drops out and comes back in a fade to the proper volume. Is there a way to resolve this issue? Any Ideas?

As far as I understand it you would not need to reboot or uninstall the drivers just turn it off and it will not be used therefore will not draw battery

Volume keeps dropping in and out

I'm using an LG-L90 running KitKat 4.4.2. When I keep having the volume drop in and out. It'll just be playing and all of a sudden the volume cut out for a split second and then come back up. Happens frequently. It also sounds like the equalizer settings get dropped and sometimes I have to close the app and open it again to get the sound back the way I set it. And I know this isn't unique to my phone because the same happened on my LG Optimus-T I was using before my latest phone. No matter what settings I tweaked I have not been able to figure out what is causing this problem.

Hi

I've tried my best to look through various topics but couldn't find all the pieces I need. I'm using Viper4Android with a stock, rooted Xperia Z3 with Android 5.1.1. With version 2.3.4.0 I can get most of my music apps to use V4A (I froze MusicFX, Audio Settings and switched AwesomePlayer in the developers options) aside from Tunein and FM radio. Now if I replace 'audio_policy.conf' with a version from the V4A topic, Tunein works with V4A, but FM radio goes completely silent. Is there any way of making both work (or at least not silencing FM with that last step) ? I've tried converting V4A into a system app and various other tips I found, but the above is the best result I got in the end.

Edit.

As luck would have it. I made progress 30 minutes after posting. Having compared my original audio_policies.conf with the one posted, I've noticed the new one was missing 'voice_tx', 'high_res_audio', and 'dsee_direct' blocks. After pasting them in, I now have Tunein with V4A and FM radio without. So in the end my only question is, if I can get FM Radio to work with V4A as well ?

Thanks in advance
