Dude, just wanted to say what you're doing here for the community, especially when the mods themselves aren't even useful to you - is awesome Thanks for all you do in this thread - V4A was a mess for a long time and you stepped up and got things in order for a hell of a lot of users. The community salutes you, good sir! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
And just to expound a bit since I'm still not convinced of your purely innocent "agenda", do you have a ViPER4Android installation that does not require root? Do you have anything positive to contribute to those unfortunate not to be you? This place is devoid of people like you with what you chose to bring with your single post, which adds nothing to what is likely the most conscise collection of current relevant information on the current status of ViPER4Android.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Thank you so much! I provided assistance for the longest time before realizing it would be beneficial and easier to all to put everything into a single step installer. I had a feeling that calling [MENTION=6602958]TheRoyalSeeker[/MENTION] out would soon come back to haunt me. I may be wrong, but I have a compulsive disorder to make sense of everything I am exposed to and [MENTION=5241728]Tha Watcher[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6602958]TheRoyalSeeker[/MENTION] being cahoots or the same person is the only scenario that makes that post make sense when taking the entire body of this thread into context. I am a positive, helpful individual, but never a pushover, nor am I naive.

Aight, thanks for the info. I'll download version 1.1 for the future. Right now my ears are enjoying the 4.5.2 with rehear.. The irs audio technica 70 or something headphone setting on viper is real nice
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
No doubt, ReHeaR and ExtremeBeats have always been my favorite sound mods outside of ViPER4Android's capabilities. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] viddy1355:
The Dolby driver doesn't want to work with my device. If I try to install it, it will not turn on audio or it will freeze my device. I am running 4.4.0 on the galaxy s3. Any solutions?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Kdx10:
[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] hi bro v4a app now updated. So is it still compatible with your mod?

From v2.3.4.0 to v2.4.0.1
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] ranaxda200:
Is there any significant change? Is it "official" yet, coz I'm unable to see anything like that on the official website.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] pittvandewitt:
Hi [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION],

thank you for the hard work on building these zips. You probably heard that on sense roms android 6.0.x the built in dolby sound is broken after flashing. I flashed the supolicy #1 and the neon driver zips separately and installed the app as a user app. Now the built in dolby sound and v4a are both working. You might find this information helpful.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Kdx10:
Yap its official. Go to v4a app then check update. U will see the newer version there. About changes, still i dont have idea. Im not using it as of now

Placed updated Viper apk into its folder in /system/priv-app, set permissions, reboot, install drivers, reboot, and it works!

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Kdx10:
Yap thanks for the info bro. But my concern now if its still works perfectly with the mod without conflict. Like viper|atmos package. Sorry for my english ?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] cink40:
Or just install/upgrade it like normal app...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] j1gga84:
Be patient, I think [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] will update the packages to the latest version ;)

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
Is there a noticeable difference when you tested it?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] bkkzak:
I keep getting errors when trying to flash this in CWM 6.0.3.7 on my Asus ZenPad S 8. First I got error status 255, which I read meant I had to switch the update-binary (so I swapped it with the stock rom zip I got from Asus, that I had just clean flashed). Then I got error status 6 and I can't seem to find a solution. I found a youtube video that shows how to edit the updater-script on NotePad++ but when I open mine it just says, "this is a dummy, real magic happens in update-binary and script.sh".

So I'm at a loss here and I'm not sure if anyone can help. BTW, I can't change my recovery because it is a tethered recovery and it's the only one available.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Which Dolby app?

Just woke up and working on it now. :good:

I had not heard of that. Were you trying a ViPER|Audio™ or ViPER|Atmos™ package?

I did a quick system wipe and dirty flashed my rom, then placed folder and apk in /system/priv-app, set permissions, and rebooted but the app did not appear on device.

Did you name the apk differently than its original name?

Will be today! :good:

Flash again and immediately attach /tmp/recovery/lastlog
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] ffejy462:
Nope. Left the name exactly as it was. I placed the apk in the folder your zip created on the previous flash. I only replaced the old apk with the new, set permissions, reboot, etc.

Thank you!

I now realized what i did. I had extracted the new apk to inspect the drivers and had copied the apk that was still in folder mode lol.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
ViPER|Atmos™ 5.0 Sony™ Beats™ Edition​

Features the latest ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1 apk

What I really need to know before I build the remaining packages is if I need to make any adjustments to the Supolicy script. Has the one included in 4.5.2 been the most successful for everybody?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
For the most part. Just seen some dude who was having issues getting viper to work because of permissive issues, flashed your 4.5.2 version suggested by another user and it worked
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] pittvandewitt:
I tried the ViPER|Audio™ 4.5.2 stock zip from the OP
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Rhonin86:
First response from my side,

Flashed your provided *.zip on my z3compact runnning debloated stock ROM 5.1.1 and it worked as it should :good:

I loaded audiophile profile without any problems. Driver works also as assumed - now i have to wait until i get a message to see (hear ;) )if the "sample-bug" is still there ...

(With sample-bug i mean that if there comes a message the notification sound starts with a sample of the last used sound)

EDIT: Convoler-Bug is still present ....

THX for all your hard work....

Rhonin
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Thank you, I'll leave the Supolicy script as is, for now. :good:

It's likely that /system/lib/soundfx/libeffectproxy.so is causing your issue. I recommend unzipping the mod, delete that file, and rezio the mod folder. That should leave you with a comoatible package. :good:

Thank you very much, I will be hoping this is fixed as well! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Kdx10:
[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION]. Bro if i flashed that v5.0 then you think can i still used the old materialized v4a app by changing v4a app in system/priv'app? Or is it outdated already? Follow up question is there a possible way to make a dark material v4a app with the latest v2.4.0.1?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] wrongway213:
Tested 5.0 without even wiping /system or dirty flashing ROM, just wiped caches and flashed. It worked perfectly - only reason I reverted to backup is your Sony Beats zip for whatever reason was the only Viper zip that worked with Pulse (a feature that involves audio API specifically in Dirty Unicorns ROM) - everything else worked perfectly on even a super dirty install like I did, and Pulse working was never your goal in these, but simply something cool us DU users had found - so seems all is well man, just wanted to confirm for ya.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
You can, but you'll be missing out on any additional properties of the new apk but youll still have the new driver. I forgot to mention that a new driver is used. If anyone is wondering why the new apk is half the size of the previous one, it is because all of the drivers were removed and only four new drivers now exist. Two for NEON amd two for x86 devices. I cant do anything to theme the apk until i get a laptop, which should happen at the end of the month.

Awesome! So you're saying that Pulse™ is working with 5.0?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] wrongway213:
Not quite, on a dirty flash I'm just saying that the actual Viper and Dolby apps work as intended. Pulse no longer works (however I already mentioned this to the DU community and asked for feedback off of a /system wipe as I didn't get the chance) so if it turns out Pulse works, I will definitely report back to let people know. I was not even sure if that was something you were discussing in here to be honest as it's a ROM feature and not part of these zips - much appreciated if you mean to tell me you're even taking u Pulse addicts into consideration, haha! I'll report back if things go better on a cleaner flash once I get feedback man, thanks again.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Of course! I take all requests and needs into consideration. Im suspecting that it's the new v4a apk though. I haven't had a chance to test much but i noticed that album art in Play Music disappeared. And then a notification came in and my Supolicy quit, throwing the triangle exclamation point into the status bar and album art instantly appeared.

[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] you da man! Thanks!

By the way, in the official v4a thread I did not see any mention of viper getting updated. When did that happen?

Also, can I dirty flash this package over 4.5.1 or do I need to wipe /system first?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] suaverc118:
So did you do an update to the last zip you posted a couple posts ago or are you implying in that zip viper was updated?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
My pleasure!

I looked at the apk closely to be sure and yes, it is an official ViPER4Android update. :highfive:

I've updated and posted the six packages having received the most votes in the poll to the OP attachments section.

The zip i posted inside the thread does not include the minor Supolicy script edit.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Yes, the new ViPER4Android apk only provides one driver which cut the size of the apk to half its former size.

So everything is working now after changing the name of htc_audio_effects.conf?

You mind zipping up both files so I can take a look?

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] thanks for great work once more.. My request is viper atmos beats package. It s too selfish to ask thwt maybe but that versions of sony or beats only should really exist. It helps to perceive the subtle differences between the two trend and. For audiophile too much processing is not necessarily the best.

I try each of them and both depending on may mood. I am istill prefer beats edition for high quality mp3 256kb/min but sony for lossy mp3.

Also as a member suggested and as you agreeded an Aroma is welcome.. I thanks for quick update and passion for perfection

I'm aware of that thread. I wonder if you pulled the res folder from the themed apk and replaced that folder inside the new official apk if it would work...

Viper did not install when I flashed ViPERAtmos 5.0 Sony Beats Edition. I had to install it manually from the .apk which was placed correctly in /priv-app/. I'm on a Nexus 5 running a debloated Stock ROM 6.0.1 with Xposed Framework and ElementalX kernel.

Just made a complete wipe yesterday to install a new version of pure nexus ROM on my N6P and installed 4.5.2 afterwards. What are the steps of updating to 5.0? Just set up my device as I want it and don't want to do it again
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] suaverc118:
Weird thing I noticed after flashing the latest viper atmos Sony beats 5.0 everything was fine until I set it up. It now says viper is still 2.3.4.0 and I don't have that new feature that was added.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
It's not clear, but I imagined it's optimized for superior sound and power usage.

Don't be embarrassed, we learn the most from those kind of mistakes. :good:

From that one individual post or the OP? You might want to check the folder in /system/priv-app and make sure there is not a space in the name. If everything looks good, just move the folder out of /system/priv-app, reboot, move back to /system/priv-app, set permissions, and reboot again.

I'll add a link when they update their site.

Thanks! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
You're very welcome, my pleasure! :good:

You'll be glad to know that wipes are never necessary!

Sounds like you had a previous v4a installation outside the scope of my install script's removal lines. Delete all ViPER folders from /system/app and /system/priv-app, reboot, and then flash 5.0 again.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] suaverc118:

If you have problems in the future with the apk not showing up then move it out of /system/priv-app, reboot, move it back to /system/priv-app, set permissions again, and reboot.

See if this version restores visualizer.
