Try this:

Move /system/priv-app/ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x to /sdcard/Download

Reboot

Move /sdcard/Download/ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x to /system/priv-app

Set folder permissions to 0755 and set apk permissions to 0644

Reboot

Let me know if you still need any assistance after that. :good:

Edit*

If you do not find the folder or the apk inside then check the available free space in /system. I've got a suspicion this is your issue.

Report on Samsung Note 4 Enforcing

Haven't been able to stay fully current on this thread, but finally got around to a clean install of stock 5.1.1. on my Note 4 (910c), with a stock, enforcing kernel, and wanted to report. Tried ViperAudio stock 4.4 install. No joy. Got the usual driver install prompts, etc. Flashed a permissive kernel (talexop 1.1) and all works with Viper just fine. So I'll live with permissive (reluctantly, but it's a fair trade-off) and be grateful for your efforts to get Viper available to all of us, across multiple devices and roms. Thanks Guitardedhero!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] ffejy462:
Yep, that worked! Thanks again.

mxpe 6.0
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] joesee:
I just wanted to take a second to thank guitardedhero for his work and this thread. I've got a Moto X Pure and have struggled for a few days in getting Viper working on 6.0 on this thing and finally had success!

For those that might stumble across this, I had to remove all the previous data (old versions of Viper, etc), rebooted, installed selinux to auto set as permissive, flashed the 4.4 zip, ran Viper and installed and it worked great!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] svnhvn:
Is there " Dev of The Year" award in here?

Maaan your 4.5.1 just AMAZING!! Hats off!!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] SuperSimian:
Hey, I'm using latest Viper|Atmos sony beats 4.5.1 and it's SUPERB. Maybe it's me, but I've noticed sound is noticeably cleaner compared to 4.4 beats only. I was thinking of contributing to the thread as a way of showing my appreciation so I'm sharing my settings here if anyone is interested, I use not so high quality earphones (30$ more or less) so these settings are oriented mainly to similar budget earphones.

Viper settings:

Headset

:

Playback Gain Control: On (if you are using Poweramp, first switch off it's built in AGC)

Effect strength: moderate

Max Gain: 4x

Max output: -1.9 DB (for smoother output)

Viper DDC: Off

Spectrum Extension: On

Strength: 0.5 (switch off if you face bass distortion)

FIREquializer: Off

Convolver: On

Impulse Response: Tracks Regular 1.irs from here

Cross Channel: 0

Field Surround: Off

Differential Surround: Off

Headphone Surround+: Off

Reverberation: Off

Dynamic System: On

Select Listening Device: Common Earphone v2

Select Dynamic Bass: 3 percent

Fidelity Control

Viper Bass: On

Bass Mode: Natural

Bass frequency: 50Hz

Bass Boost: 10dB

Viper Clarity: Off

Auditory System Protection

Cure Tech: On

Binaural Level: Slight

Master Gate: Defaults (0)

For Dolby Atmos:

Music Mode

Intelligent Equalizer: Rich (middle preset)

Surround Virtualizer: On

Dialogue Enhancer: On

All surround processing will be done by Dolby Atmos Alone, without interference from Viper. Also All setting That I didn't mention were left with default value. Keep In mind that some IRS may or may not work if Viper is installed as system app, to solve this issue I thank [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] for explaining this, You must extract Viper4Android APK from the zip file and install it manually, this will make Viper a system AND user app, so full convolver functionality is restored.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
Similar, but I like clarity at 6, and headphone surround level 2 (in addition to Dolby surround visualizer). Have dialogue enhancer off (I think the clarity setting does similar). I listen mostly to pop/rock.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Great info there and I really appreciate the thanks! I've always said that ViPER4Android can be the most frustrating app to install at times but is worth it every time! :good:

If there is then there would have to be an award for the users as you are the ones that make it happen! :highfive:

Thank you! I'm really proud of this build and so fortunate to have so many awesome people participate, contribute, and provide feedback! :good:

Your post is going into the User Content Area, the second post, immediately! Thank you so much for sharing!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
How about we save our profile and send it to you maybe with a note if Dolby is involved. Be nice to just download profiles and test them rather than reading through all the settings.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Absolutely! What I'm thinking is attach the profile with a reply of a brief description and the name of the profile so I can quote the post and attach the profile to the User Content Area, the second post. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
Here's mine. Atmos setting "open" (left), surround on. "tcat007" V4a profile attached below, irs: BBE Generic2.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] mallman:
Poweramp NO - Apollo YES!!

Works great with Apollo. Poweramp was a no go. Sounds beautiful, thanks OP!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] TmobileDash12:
Tried doing the bass booster, and tried the viper bass to 12db. Master power is enabled, as well as the firequalizer. I'm at a loss :/

EDIT: I'm using Google Play Music. I'm rooted, unencrypted, and have the latest busybox installed if that helps lol. I checked the SuperSU logs and it did grant it permission so IDK.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] AndrasLOHF:
Yeah that's wierd. From everything you typed in your two posts it should be working. Google Play Music is the easiest app to get this working on.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] raijin32:
When I check driver status it say "processing: no". Did everything in the OP. Anyone else seeing this issue?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] TexasRules777:
I am if I'm not using Google music. It works great with Google's tunes but the second I switch to Spotify processing switches to no. Wonder why?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] mkeller96:
Same problem!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] BlackHayze:
I have installed this and can get music to play if I leave it in normal mode. However, the main thing I'm trying to do is increase the volume output of the speakers and it doesn't seem to be doing that for me. Is there a specific setting to help with this for headphones? I don't see the same extra loud setting that Speakers have.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mahapederdon:
I remember if you hit settings and goto ui. Put it in expert mode and the option for gain may show up then.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] BlackHayze:
I see that and it doesn't seem to work. I did some digging, I have a MusixFX folder in priv-app. I know it's supposed to uninstall that, is that safe to delete or does that not matter?

Also, I'm using Spotify as well, haven't tested on Play yet. I'll give that a try in a minute.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] AndrasLOHF:
The folder is there but should be empty.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] BlackHayze:
It has an ARM folder with MusicFX. Odex in it. No APK in there though. Not sure if that's an issue if it's not empty.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] getnmoney:
No luck

Followed instructions checked driver status everything is yes except processing. Option in dev is unchecked. Status set to promissive. Still a no go. Yes apk is in correct folder too. Reset 100 times already.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] getnmoney:
ol well

Ended up bricking my phone. Tried to fix permissions in twrp and it didnt go so well. Couldnt boot back up. Phone restored (pretty easy).... Guess i'll wait for the official update.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] mkeller96:
I'm having exact same issue and did everything above :(
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] BRKotucs:
I've been using Viper on my Nexus 6 for awhile now and it has been working flawlessly.

Tested with Google Play Music and Spotify.

Nexus 6

Stock Rom and Kernel

This is how I got it working (Make sure your phone is rooted):

* Download APK [Android 4.x] (5.3MB)

* Using a File Manager of your choise, Copy or Move it to /system/priv-app/

* Make sure to change Permission to rw- r-- r--

* Reboot Phone.

* Open app (Viper)

* Install Drivers

* Reboot Phone

* Open App (Viper)

* Check "Force Enable V4A"

then go to Settings / FX Compatible Mode / Compatible

* Download SELinux Mode Changer from the Play Store

* Open App (SELinux Mode Changer) / Set to Permissive

* Reboot Phone

See Screenshots

ENJOY!!!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mahapederdon:
I did that. ^^^^ to the T. Didn't sound any different and driver status was greyed out. Any ideas. I'm stock rooted and unencrypted through the all in 1 tool
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] BRKotucs:
Just updated my post with Screen Shots.. Check again.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mahapederdon:
That's what I got and did. I couldn't hear any changes when doing eq changes. And how come driver status is greyed out.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] BRKotucs:
Did you download the app "Selinux Mode Changer" and set it to Permissive?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mahapederdon:
Yeah... Not a big deal. Hardly use headphones anyway. I did only try Pandora though before uninstall. Maybe it would of worked with Poweramp.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] :
I'm now using Zen17 (anykernel version) w/ AICP 4/23 rom, kernel left on "enforcing" and on Viper "normal mode" and Viper works great!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] aoaleman:
Well it may work great for you but your processing does not equal yes. Without a Yes there, Viper is not working 100%. Nonetheless, if you enjoy it, who cares!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] :
I read that... Weird that it seems to work great like this. Was using V4A on Leankernel before Zen and worked fine on enforcing.. [emoji102] Will mess with it some more and see whether I can tell a difference on permissive and compatible mode or not.. V4A is truly amazing!!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] KurioHonoo:
Let me know if AUX works for you. Everything works fine and sounds great, but plugging in an AUX cable just plays sound through the speakers where headphones work just fine
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] xonelith:
Tested last night and AUX is working for me.

So, to clarify, SEPolicy set to permissive and installed apk as provided on the official site (tried both as a system app and a non-system app). I do use a cleanup script that removes things like DSPManager, MusicFX and AudioFX.

I'm not sure it matters at all but I'm using Rocketplayer.

ETA: No reason for compatibility mode.

Good Luck!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] :
Switched Zen17 to permissive using kernel auditor, rebooted... Had to wipe V4A app data and reboot again to get processing to say "yes" but now my OCD is satisfied. lol. Tks!! [emoji12]
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] dawiseguy77:
Thanks for your suggestions much appreciated. I'll let you know what happens.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] stumpy352:
Just a heads up, since you guys are talking about selinux. All apps that modify sepolicy have been removed from the play store. Google considers them a security risk. This includes selinux mode changer & a ton of kernel tweaking apps. So you will need either a kernel that is permissive or gives you the option for permissive or a ROM/kernel that has the necessary edits in source to enable viper to work with enforcing selinux. Chroma ROM has recently made these edits, so permissive selinux is no longer necessary & if you use a different kernel that has its own ramdisk built in there is a flash able zip that allows you to retain the sepolicy changes in the ROM. Kernels that use anykernel script don't require this zip. I'm not sure which other ROMs/kernels have made these changes though. I'm using chroma & elementalx and viper is working flawlessly. And also, if you use greenify or something similar, don't use it to kill the viper service in background or it won't process until you open the viper app.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] gessi2000:
Running Chroma Rom and tried to install the .apk, moved the file and changed permissions etc... Anyway the Driver status shows me

Driver version: 2.3.4.0

NEON enabled: No

Enabled: No

Status: Abnormal

Audio Format: Unsupported

Processing: No

Sampling rate:0

For me that means it's now working...

Now I am wondering how to install from 2(!?) .zip files in Recovery but there are 4 .zip files listed on Post#1:

So what exactly do I need here and how do I correctly uninstall the existing App (Drivers can be uninstalled from the App itself as it seems)?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] stumpy352:
Why are you moving files & changing permissions? Just install it like a normal apk. Then open the app and install the driver & reboot.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MarceloSiciliano:
Im having a problem with viper. When I start to listen something with the speaker the sound goes down automatically after 5 seconds.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Playb3yond:
This works with the Nexus 5 on 5.1.1 as well
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] stebomurkn420:
I know I have seen this issue addressed somewhere before, but has anyone found a fix or ROM that has screen casting (mirroring) with chromecast? Every time I install viper4 android it works beautifully, yet breaks screen casting? I have tried viper4android with the stock Google .IMG, AOSP and CM12/CM12.1 with no luck. I'm going to guess viper causes issues with the audio side of connecting to the chromecast via screen cast. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] grayv:
While trying and mostly failing to get viper to run reliably I've found that processing will say yes when i play through any app that streams music over the network. But when I try to play any song from the local device it won't process. Maybe this will help somebody come up with a fix
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] crkdslider:
I have this problem. Here is the way I fix it:

Open up your music application (Google Play Music for me)

Press the home button

App Drawer > Viper4Android

Toggle Off/On the equalizer

Open up your Recents

Swipe Away the V4A app

This will initialize the equalizer for me. Unfortunately I have to do this EVERY time I plug in the headphone jack.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] gk1984:
I had an issue where Viper would randomly stop working on my previous phone. I made it a system app and never had a problem again. Been doing that ever since, including with the N6
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] stumpy352:
I just stopped greenifying it. That worked.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] stebomurkn420:
Deleted...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] .Ejekt:
I'm not getting audio on phone calls on 5.1

When the screen is on I can hear the person on the other end. Other than that, the recipient can't hear me and I can't hear them.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] troyd28:
What settings is everyone using if you have power amp for best and loud sound quality on Bluetooth?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Awesome! Before I quote your post, will you edit it to add the name of the zip and say something like attached below? Thanks for sharing!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Hey man! I missed your post earlier and just saw it now. Thank you for sharing that helpful information and I am ecstatic that you got it working! I know you had some frustrating times getting the mod to work and I never forgot about you, thank you so much for letting me know you got it! :highfive:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
I will try and feed back. Thanks for omnipresence and omnikindndess
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
You'll get a peek back in time of the catalyst to 4.5.1! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Never mind, I didn't even think of my own ability to do that for you lol!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] techinv:
Just dirty flashed 4.51 DD+ Sony_Edition, coming from 4.4 Atmos, and I notice slight popping with Viper and Dolby turned on. With just one processor turned on (either V4A or DD+) there is no popping. Will be trying the 4.51 Atmos to compare. Wondering if anyone else has experience popping/static with the DD+ zip?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
It really seems most noise disturbances are attributed to custom kernel settings like Governer. I would try that first before trying other packages, unless you just want to try another package, of course. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Quality0528:
I did not find any folder or apk inside /system/priv-app. Then I checked the free space by using Root Explorer, 1.91GB used and only 16 Mb left. Then I got to know where the problem was! Free up some unnecessary apps and flash again. It works!!!:good:

Thank you so much!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
My pleasure! When I reread your post I knew I needed to add the edit asap!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] techinv:
Hot damn! You're right (as usual). Found a couple of governor settings in ElemX that silence the pops with both processors turned on (and the sound really is good with the Sony processor - more revealing, slightly wider soundstage, etc). Interesting that changing the governor didn't give me any relief from this problem with 4.21; but you had already made mention of your concerns with the Huawei drivers. As usual, thanks for the lightning fast response.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Pleasure is all mine and never let anyone tell you the subscription service at XDA doesn't work lol!

And yeah, the abandonment of the Huawei™ files was long overdue. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Hi [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] can you upload the sonymusic player 4.5.1 variant of viperatmos sony beat edition. Or a flashable sony music thanks.. Ifind the one embedded in 4.5 particularly stable

---------- Post added at 07:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 AM ----------

:good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Absolutely, I'll package an installer right away. I want to keep it separate to avoid confusion and to more successful when dealing with /system partitions almost out of space. I'll give you a shout here in a few. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Thanks you definitely amazing.. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Sorry for the delay, it took me a while to realize XDA attachments wasn't working or I ran out of space here or something.

Sony™ Music 9.1.4.A.2.1 Installer​

Edit*

And of course, there it is lol!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] sTIMulat3:
So I went back to my previous kernel to figure out what exactly was causing the issues, and I discovered that it seems to be related to the kernel's power saving settings, like "Schedule workqueues on awake CPUs", and the CPU minimum frequency. I turned off "Schedule workqueues on awake CPUs" and set the CPU minimum frequency to 384MHz or higher and it pretty much fixed the issue.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Great info there that will likely benefit many users, thanks for sharing! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
thanks a lot.. So kind of you

Bwt Flash the zip from file host works but phone heats d800 AICP
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Which zip? Your phone is running very hot?

Edit*

Oh, you must mean the Sony package that should have never been uploaded lol!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Hahaha the 73+ mb from filehost lol i try test everything thing man.. Just link me
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I'm the same way man! :highfive:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Sure;)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] vansh_bond07:
Hey Dear Dev guitardehero

So thankful for your beautiful and awesome work

Just a request ..wish i can get

I wanna this mod along with XTREAMusic latest version

Can you make a zip of your latest version of sony beats with XTREAMusic v7.0.3 ?

I really appreciate if you can help in this

I already checked out your AFH folder where you keep many version of this mod

I wanna a latest version of this mod include with XTREAMusic. ..

And I'm using KITKAT ROM...4.4..

thanks in advance
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] net.cat:
Since Beats is in phase out (don't know why ...), is it recommendable to flash 4.5.1 sony beats ?

secondly, what's the supolicy zip useful for? I mean, it should be flashed anyway to keep compatibility between your mod and latest supersu despite the intention to upgrade to 4.5.1!?

Thanks :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
Curious what the 3_20...file is below my post (in post 2). I only attached a profile zip. I'm on 4.5.1 Atmos (on Enforcing kernel EX).
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] white_Shadoww:
Hi guitardedhero, doesn't the ViperDD+ Sony Beats zip contain Sony Music player? Why is it so? Or did I do anything wrong while flashing?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I'm not planning on doing anymore work with XTREMEMusic™ in its current 7.0.3 state as it is quite bloated and presents many problems for many users at the current edition. If you want a great package that includes all kinds of extra libraries and effects then you should try my JB & KK ViPER|Atmos™ build of RHR-K SRC 1.H at this link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=file-thanks&fid=24369303960690294&mid=71&download_id=1eg6trqr7i581stcv401mjmu13&tid=1453737656&hc=03c94a6d09446170e70adfc745ace076f985ffdeb4d6935e4fadeb432f0142f1

The Alternate Supolicy script is the one previously used on packages before 4.5.1. If you are on Enforcing Selinux and find that 4.5.1 does not work when 4.4 did work right before then that Alternate Supolicy script should get you back in business.

Beats™ will still be included with Sony™, I'm just thinking of phasing out the Beats™>only packages to keep a manageable number of packages. :good:

That zip is for the first post in the User Content Area by [MENTION=5079472]sonophilos[/MENTION]. :good:

Sorry for the confusion! I You did nothing wrong. I decided to leave the player out of the packages to avoid confusion and to avoid problems for those with a /system partition running out of space. You can download the Sony™ Music Installer below. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] themoto:
I just flasht your lastestViperAtmos 4.5.1 Sony beats edition.

I came from Project Desire V.L.U codename Luna with ViperAtmos but now i'm really sure i don't need that extra's any more.

this lastest verion 4.5.1 until now is great man.

Thank you so much.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
No doubt about it! Throughout all the work I've done one thing is certainly clear: more stuff = more chances of problems. That's why stuff is added slowly and tested for compatibility and sonic enhancement before becoming official. Too much stuff is found in many mods that sit there doing nothing but creating compatibility issues. :good:

4.5.1 is a very special build and it's hard to imagine it not being enough, but we'll test that later, of course! ;)

I feel you guys deserve a break to just relax and enjoy an awesome ViPER|Audio™ series you guys helped me create so I'm going to let these settle for a while until something spectacular comes along. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] deeplyyoung:
Sony:victory::highfive::o I'm going to delete my existing 2 Rom's and gonna flash clean to get a taste of 4.5.1.... this thread making me crazy...lol....keep it up buddy...God Bless you....:good::good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] white_Shadoww:
Good to know I did nothing wrong. Actually I think I'm being too greedy for wanting all the stuff :P. Anyway, what I did is flashed the ViperDD+ SONY Beats zip and downloaded the SemcMusic apk from your earlier post and moved it to priv-app. That's my current set up. So, do I need to flash the Sony Music installer for the Sony libraries or are they included in ViperDD+ SONY Beats package?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] themoto:
I think you deserve a break to relax harder then us,and what you say is true the more stuff in that sound mods

are not making the sound always better it' s a little bit over i think.The other sounds in the phone like Ringtone and Notifications

it's a little to much too.

i'm happy with this 4.5.1 build.

Thanks again.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Massimo Graniero:
Flashed V4A Atmos Sony Beats and works fine! Also flashed Sony Music e when i try to download album art force closes the player. Thanks!
