Viper4A is working for me but when I try to open doly atoms it is force closing,please give me solution
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I feel my inclusion of Audiophile in the installation has caused many weird issues I'm sorry to say... which is the reason for the 3.6 version. You might try this:

Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System > ViPER4Android

Tap permissions

Deselect Storage permissions

Open v4a

Menu > Load Effect Profile

Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System > ViPER4Android

Tap permissions

Select Storage permissions

Open v4a

Menu > Load Effect Profile

Was Audiophile selectable at either time?

What phone/rom? Do you have a copy of your rom zip on your phone you can flash in TWRP?

My phone is Samsung I9082,iam on pawit',s aosp 5.1.1 and I am using cwm recovery,I have clean installed everything as per your instruction
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] dingermtb:
Just wanted to point out for some with Viper issues not sure if it would cause any problems but do not flash any tweak mods over this if you use a tweak mod flash it first let the phone boot up then flash this mod because there is a Viper script in the United folder and most tweak mods wife that folder out as for me I use project Skynet so I flash that first let the phonebooth and then I flash this mod so the Viper script does not get wiped out

Been running on this V4A install for a while now- and still really enjoy V4A.

I am using the Atmos/Beats/Huawei version (dark) - and am wondering if I should try V4a without Dolby Atmos?

I am keeping Dolby Atmos turned off - so my notifications are not booming loud. So I'm wondering - if I'd just be better off w/o Atmos?

Will V4A be the same w/o Atmos as with Atmos and it turned off (silly question I know - but had to ask).

Also - was on a speakerphone call - using the voice tab on Atmos - and the sound was great - but I may have been having Mic problems on my end. Any chance the enhanced sound was killing my mic on a conference call?

I don't think I can modify permission through settings in my AOSP rom 5.1.1. for Galaxy S4 GSM snapdragon variant. I have to use root explorer to do this. When is version 3.6 coming? Also, without audiophile, what am I missing out? Thank you for the help once again!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Try flashing again, as crazy as it sounds it might work.

Precisely, the most common culprit is the overwriting of the audio_effects.conf which is why you'll never see that file in my zips. If sound mods would patch the file instead of including the whole file then apps would not suddenly stop working. And lingering backup files in /system/etc/init.d and system/addon.d can do the same thing.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
For sure, I'm glad to help. Tap permissions located on the App Info of ViPER4Android. 3.6 is in the attachments section of the OP right now. The only thing you'll miss out are the headaches caused by its inclusion. The extractable Audiophile™ zip is in the attachments section as well. Simply extract the Audiophile™ zip and place the ViPER4Android folder into the working directory.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] kvrangarao:
Is twrp recovery is a must? Or any custom recovery will work?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Test version for those with Dolby Atmos™ FC's attached below. It includes a backup script for ViPER and Dolby Atmos™ in case an existing file on your system is overwriting a file causing either app to fail. Feedback from those still experiencing Dolby Atmos™ FC's is greatly appreciated!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Any recovery that can read the updater-script is fine, I just test on TWRP is all.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
With those headphones I know you are truly enjoying your music. Are they comfortable, how long does it take for them to start hurting the ears?

When I'm cruising on my bike everything is blocked out. Like that feeling, clarity and smooth bass...good times

I was thinking you had some 12s hooked up with a nice amp and some 6x9s..playing your own music beats listening to the repeated trash on some stations
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I don't have any headphones, but I'd get one of those if I was buying a pair (I listed a wired and wireless pair for you). I don't listen much to earbuds/headphones but this is the pair I have when I need to for discreet listening and testing purposes: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008G...i=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70&keywords=sony+mdr+japan

75% of my listening is through my van system which sounds much better than it looks on paper lol. The Pioneer DEH80PRS and Focal ISC165's really make this mod shine as well as the vintage 6" subs and old school Kicker amp.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrBrady:
Can anyone recommend a good pair of earphones? Preferably a set that has an ear stabilizer of some kind to keep it from falling out.

I'm not an audiophile, so I do not need perfect sound. For example I'm using Samsung Note earphones (flat cable) and they sound better than expected with this mod.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I've been eyeing these for quite some time now: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0042...pan+import&dpPl=1&dpID=314KBJY529L&ref=plSrch

They have a cult following so pricing can get out of control sometimes but these are supposed to be incredible.

Or these if you want to splurge a little bit, not a classic model like above but a more stable price. The blue model of the first link is almost $400 for example.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NW...pan+import&dpPl=1&dpID=31fzVLBD+IL&ref=plSrch

Hopefully, you'll get more recommendations from others as I will only recommend Sony Japan.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] mantakos:
Well if you are at this price range I would suggest you to look at some quality Overear Headphones. I always have the idea of over 200$ in ears tonbe only for studio and professional use since they dont provide the consumer grade audio calibration.

Edit: [MENTION=3104236]MrBrady[/MENTION] try getting some of these. They are bluetooth but are supposed to have awesome sound and long battery life. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=is_s?k=jaybird

This isn't working on my GS3. I've tried every possible installation instruction given by the admin and others all to no avail.

---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ----------

Hello [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION], I've tried all of your instructions on how to successfully install this piece of genius app on my GS3 running AICP CM13 ROM Android 6.0.1 but unfortunately I couldn't get it to work

The Issue encountered:

Either Driver not installed or Driver status is abnormal / not processing and also Dolby Atmos app FC whenever I tried to open it.

Neon Enable: no

Enabled: no

Status: Abnormal

Audio Format: unsupported

Processing: no

Sampling Rate: 0

Steps taken so far:

- Downloaded the V4a Atmos/Audio/Huwaei flashable zip files

- Follow thru the steps you mentioned in flashing thoroughly, even up to a point I had to factory reset my phone for a fresh install of my rom and v4a

- My SuperSU is systemless root, v2.66 beta.

Possible Cause I thought of:

System is set to Enforcing Strict

Please help me out. I've been an avid fan of v4a for almost 2years running, until now I'm having issues running it on Marshmallow.

Thank you in advance.

Please Help me !!!!!

Any workarounds to make viper work on nexus 5 cm13 caf?

I've tried different versions, however, none of them work.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Ramondel:
Have you made sure that you don't have the Lock Effect Mode enabled to the Bluetooth. It is located in the menu section of V4a
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] tokict:
It's disabled. I never touch it at all.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
Looks like you have some nice equipment for music. I prefer over the ear but I don't mind in ears for just relaxing. Good looks on the Sony mentions.

After you brought up those other players I decided to try some.

I've just confused my ears testing usb audio player, onkyo hifi, and neutron music player. Jetaudio is okay but without viper it sounds basic. Still haven't tried the newer poweramp though
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] rolarocka:
One vote for USB audio player pro from me, I've tested almost all player and this is the best sounding of all, more clarity and punch then neutron for example. I also a/b tested the new poweramp alpha and USB audio player pro wins hands down. It's not cheap but you won't regret it, it's amazing. I also use it with xiaomi piston v3 in ears and the viper atmos beats Huawei edition and the sound quality is crazy.

Those having issues on sgs3 my guess would have to be related to the marshmallow ROM as I am also on the sgs3 running Exodus 5.1 with zero issues and we should be getting marshmallow sometime around the end of the month no be able to test marshmallow then but that would be my guess is rom related

Problem with speakerphone function on some apps

[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] I just noticed something today. I have some IM apps like LINE and WhatsApp which I use extensively. After I did the Viper install yesterday, today I found that the speakerphone function on apps like LINE, WhatsApp and Skype will cause them to crash. They don't FC, but will just hang. The speakerphone function on the dialer is not affected though.

I have already tried to uninstall and re-install said apps, I have tried to turn off Viper processing on the speaker tab and I have tried to change the kernel, all without luck. What do you make of this?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
USB sure isn't cheap but it sounds good. Poweramp hasn't been my to go app for awhile

I wanted to try out those pistons, how are they? Did you have the 2s before the 3s?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Absolutely, any further uploads will not contain any special characters. Thank you for pointing that out for me as it never presented issues for me.

Finally !!! With the newest v3.7, now both speaker/headset are working as it should on my GS3.

Here is what i did :

- running cm 13 official (6.0.1)

- Selinux = Permissive

- Using inbuild superuser by CM (didn't use SuperSU at all)

- disable AudioFX

- boot TWRP

- Wipe dalvik/chace

- Flash newest v3.7

- Wipe dalvik/chace

- Reboot

Similar step with previous version, but now is the first time it work both with speaker/headset.

BIG THANKS TO YOU ;);)

EDIT : But, Dolby atmost force close. No ptoblem btw, i didn't use it. Viper itself is enough for me.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Awesome job! Glad you got it working so that the many others might finally get it working as well. Did this rom just release last night or something?

To run on Enforcing, SuperSU is required so those not interested in SuperSU in favor of cm's SuperUser or whatever it is now, need to set Selinux to Permissive.

And it seems that AudioFX still needs to be disabled.

I might go ahead and throw 3.7 in the OP here in a bit. I think the backup script in 3.7 helps with CM.

After trying all possible things, I opened my Boeffla kernel app and uncheck the SELinux strict, went back to V4A and saw everything is working perfectly.

So for everyone having issues on CM13 or Samsung GS3, change SELinux Strict to Permissive.

I neither disable Audio FX nor delete it.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] geoff5093:
So I've read the OP and last pages several times, and I don't know if it's because I've been up since 4AM or what, but I can't find out how to install the audiophile profiles. I flashed the beats and huwaei mod, I enabled Viper for phone speaker and bluetooth, but I looked in my file manager under /system and /data and could not find where Viper is installed to copy the downloaded profiles.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Thank you very much for that info! When I'm off work today I'll update the OP with CM13 information as well as the 3.7 packages as long as they seem to do OK. It helps me a lot if the version # is noted in the feedback. Thanks!

Typically in either:

/data/media/legacy/ViPER4Android

OR

/storage/emulated/0/ViPER4Android

You can try saving an open v4a tab as a New Effect Profile named "FOUND IT" and see where it is saved. That way you'll know where the working v4a directory is.

Which one you guys think sound better, beats or beats + Huawei?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Beautiful!

Beats™ is phenomenal. I wasn't sure about the addition of the Huawei™ files but everyone seemed to think it was an enhancement to Beats™ without a single complaint. I've been on ViPER|Atmos™ Beats™ Huawei™ since I posted it since I need to be on the package with the most files for testing purposes, so it's been quite some time since I heard Beats™ without Huawei™.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] xdavidc:
ViPER|Atmos� 3.7 Beats� Huawei� Edition Dark.zip still has audiophile and can't save a profile, installation and sound all good.

Oneplus one CM13 supersu 2.66. Maybe is my ROM, some user reported all ok on opo wasn't it?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
3.7 does not remove Audiophile™ from your device, only from the installation. You can try going to ViPER4Android's App Info from System Settings, tap on permissions, deselect and reselect its Storage permissions. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused by including Audiophile™ in previous versions. Remember me saying, "Don't be helpful, be harmless."? Classic example, right there. It is possible you may have to delete every v4a directory and start fresh if my first suggestion does not correct your issue. Again, I apologize, I certainly did not see that curve ball coming. :(

I'd been having trouble with getting V4A working on my Nexus 6 running AOSiP and Elite Kernel, so I thought I'd post this in case it can help anyone else. I had two problems: first, I couldn't get V4A to consistently process audio. My driver status would show everything normal and installed, but it would frequently show "Processing: No" and fail to make any difference to my phone audio. After some tweaking and reading through this thread, I finally got it process consistently, but I couldn't use many of my favorite IRS profiles (yes, I tried the fixes suggested in this thread).

Here's what I finally did to get everything working (based in part on instructions from [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] in this post):

Wipe system, cache, dalvik

Install ROM (and gapps and kernel if you like)

Flash UPDATE-unSU.zip (my ROM includes SuperSU 2.52, and apparently V4A works better with newer systemless SuperSU versions)

Flash SuperSU 2.66

Flash Viper|Audio 3.6

Reboot

When I rebooted, my phone ran fine, but V4A was not installed for some reason. I installed it by extracting the Viper|Audio 3.6 zip file and running the apk. Then I loaded the audiophile profile and tweaked the settings to my liking. Everything now appears to work, including my IRS profiles.

3.7 adds a backup script in /system/addon.d to hopefully prevent other files from removing necessary files for ViPER4Android and Dolby Atmos™ to properly function. It also removes the use of special characters from the zip name to avoid issues in certain cases.
