Finally got this to work on my nexus 6 . films and music sound great , but for some reason youtube sounds distorted and tinny . i agree with everyone this is a great mod to have and makes your nexus 6 sound great , thanks guitaredhero for a great mod
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] gaaraofthesand:
Does this replace Auduofx that comes with many roms?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] rgrever2:
So I deleted these when the instructions originally came out. I've since reflashed SuperSU 2.66 and those files have not returned. All does seem to be working fine, but thought I would report.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] techinv:
Can I use SuprrSU 2.61 with the latest builds?

What about ElemX kernel?

Finally ready to give this a try later today....
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
I had everything fine with 3.9. Read the thread and flashed to 4.2.1 and I ended up having to wipe everything and reinstall everything. Went to apply 4.2.1 and processing no. Uggh.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Absolutely. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Phone/rom? What audio output? PowerAmp?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
When you said that I switched from Poweramp to GM and its processing. What poweramp won't work with this mod?

---------- Post added at 09:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 AM ----------

Its not processing on phone speaker or headset. Only thing processing is bluetooth.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] yyz71:
Using Poweramp for years no problems with flashing this mod.. Running 6.0.1 Nexus 5 Krexus rom ?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
In PowerAmp

Menu > Settings > Audio > Advanced Tweaks

Uncheck top two boxes pertaining to Volume Control
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Zip up your /system/etc/audio_policy.conf, attach it to a reply and I'll take a look at it for you.

ViPER|Audio™ and ViPER|Atmos™ will never delete any app or file from your phone. That has always felt like an incredibly irresponsible thing to do to someone else's device. :good:

Thank you very much for the report. :good:

Thank you for your confirmation for other users. :good:

There's a new project desire out [MENTION=4737693]guitared[/MENTION]hero what you gonna do with it lol
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Download it! Thanks for the head's up!

Stay tuned.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
I don't get it, I had it perfect in 3.9 but for some reason it won't work thru headset/earbuds or phone speaker for either Poweramp or GM. I did get my bluetooth headphones to work. Any ideals? I'm stuck.

---------- Post added at 10:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

Atmos not working at all. Never did. Should I flash the audio?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
What phone/rom? Dolby Atmos™ did not work on any previous version?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
Nexus 6p, Pure nexus rom. I never got atmos working on any version but v4a was working fine. Now it won't play through either player except with bluetooth.

Do I need to flash the permissive zip?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
This is not supposed to be necessary but I have had one report that renaming /vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf was the solution. Give it a shot and let me know. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
Rename it to 'old?'

Bak and reboot. ok.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Any modification to the name will do. Be sure to reboot afterwards. I suspect something with the new vendor image for you guys has caused my script to need modification. I'd appreciate it if you would zip up the file once you're done and attach it to a reply. Post in that reply the exact original name of the file. :good:

Thread is increasing like wild grass...[emoji106] [emoji108] [emoji3] [emoji4]

Flashed V4 over aicp latest build and its working ... Now as aicp giving Nightly every alternate day, and I'm using it as my secondary ROM...what procedure should I follow to get it working like this only. As I can't clean flash Rom every day(due to heavy app user) and neither I can move them as primary and then wipe system and dirty flashing and all....

Now another new Version is up..so do I need to update and how... Just need suggestions and guide... Not in a mood of war..as happened here at XDA normally...

By the way only few Devs have seen who are dedicated to give all to get the best... You ate one of them...keep it up Buddy... I like the way you help and update...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Dumb questions are not a possibility here. :good:

I want to look at what was /vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf on your device.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
ViPER|Audio™ and ViPER|Atmos™ are built to survive rom updates. Simply do nothing more than install your Nightlies. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
Its working after changing the name. Thanks.

Sorry, I got frustrated so I restored my backup to version that was working with custom kernel. I will change to stock kernel and wipe cache and dalvick/cache and see what happens.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] rolarocka:
There is now RHR K and Universal VLU? Is the same but newer? Can't wait to try it ?

A0001 - oneplus one
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Glad you got it working! :good:

It is certainly frustrating to see that file patched perfectly, yet it still prevents the mod working 100%.

I wonder what your /system/etc/audio_effects.conf looks like. There must be something in there that is not in the /vendor file. You mind letting me take a look at that one as well?

No worries, I understand the frustration. :good:

Both are very similar and just dropped within the last two to three days. I have ViPER|Atmos™ Editions of both in my AndroidFileHost which can be found in my signature. I recommend these editions only if you planned on using ViPER4Android and Dolby Atmos™ with those mods anyway. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] themoto:
What are the difference between RHR K and Project Desire V.L.U i see the last one is rebased on RHR K.

pfff yesterday just flasht 4.2 and the sound is really great but thinking about trying it with Project Desire.

What do you think guitardedhero is the file to big for a sound mod 24.8 MB.

Soundmod's makes me always cracy i'm always searching for better.

Sorry i just miss your post above me.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
No problem at all. I can't thank you enough. Here's the file...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] peekie:

Heres the file you asked for hope it helps and thanks for looking at it :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] net.cat:
Factory reset and fresh rom installation. I followed then installation steps for this but driver keeps asking me to be installed :(
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Awesome, thank you for providing that for me. I noticed the vendor file has something extra on the bottom. I removed that portion and zipped it up for you. Just copy the file to your /vendor/etc and set permissions to 0644 before rebooting. Don't worry about the renamed file already there as it does not have an impact on anything with its modified name.

If still have issues, something else in that file needs changing and I'll look further into it. Looking forward to your report. :good:

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] IaKnightHawke:
I just attempted to update my Rom nightly via dirty flash. It did not go well. I had to reinstall ViPER 4.2. I received busy box not found errors when attempting to start Viper Xhifi. I installed busybox in both the xbin and bin locations. Still had busybox not found errors. I had to restore a backup to restore full functionality of 4.2.

System Specs: LG G3 VS985 variant, CM 13, 777 Kernel.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Post has been edited with corrected version link. I had an incomplete line in install script causing error in TWRP.

All good now. :good:

Precisely. You nailed it. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I wonder if your rom contains a backuptool or script. Is it cm based?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] inffy:
Most roms have to backup gapps and restoring them so you don't need to flash gapps in dirty flashes
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] JoeyDuran:
Hey [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION], finally made my way over to your thread. Can your Viper atmos be applied on top of Xtreme?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Ramondel:
So after many attempts and different scenarios, I have come to the conclusion that on the version firmware that I am on (OA6) the stock kernel will not allow V4a to install the driver at all. I am able to run this in either permissive or enforcing using a custom kernel. Samsung S5 running MOAR rom.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] derdjango:
Hey, I just installed V4A on my N6, with PN ROM and EX kernel. Awesome!!! Thank you!

However, I have trouble to get V4A and Dolby Atmos do work at the same time. With speakers, when I enable V4A, Atmos is not working anymore. It only kicks in when V4A is disabled. With my bluetooth LG HBS900, Dolby Atmos is not working at all. Any solutions?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Sure man. Results will vary of course.

Great info and findings. :good:

Have you tried disabling any stock audio effects?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] derdjango:
No, because I don't know if there are any and if so where to find and disable them :D
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] derdjango:
I disabled MusicFX, now my bluetooth headphones behave like the speakers: V4A works, Dolby Atmos works but they don't work together. Once V4A is enabled, Atmos is not working.

Or am I super stupid and they are not supposed to work together but each on its own?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
They absolutely work together. In fact, in my usage, I find that if v4a is not processing then Dolby Atmos™ will not process either. I suspect that you have one or both of these settings set in v4a:

Force Enable v4a checked

FX Compatibile Mode set to Compatible

I recommend never enabling the Force Enable v4a setting and only use Normal in Compatible Mode.

Also, is this when using one player or with multiple players?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] derdjango:
Compatible mode was indeed set to compatible. Thanks!

However, it still doesn't work with Spotify (I only hear music via spotify). I tried to hear some music via VLC media player and it works! Is that a known problem with spotify? :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] IaKnightHawke:
Yes, my Rom is CM based. CM 13: Marshmallow
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
What happens when you tap on Equalizer within Spotify?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] derdjango:
It prompted me to either Atmos or V4A. It works now, you're the boss! Thank you very much! :good::)

edit: BLOWN away by the sound my lg tone can bring with these mods! Love them already!

edit 2: you're donate link seems broken :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] net.cat:
Any clue for me then? :(
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] JoeyDuran:
OK so I'm combining your atmos zip with xtrememusic zip..

Should I copy over the aplay and asound file from the bin folder? It won't let me open them to see the difference between the one in yours and the one in xtrememusic
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Lol, take a better look at the donate link. ;)

And you're very welcome. :good:

Sorry man, forgot about ya. What's your status right now?

They're likely the same, try comparing MD5.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Annunneo:

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] net.cat:
Same as before [emoji14] I cleaned data and caches via twrp before flashing the latest cataclysm to start from scratch. I flashed kernel and x posed then booted, made some custom, then back to recovery to wipe caches install your 4.2 mod and wipe caches again. When booted up viper was asking for installing the driver.. Ok.. Reboot... Same question all over again :(
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Delete backuptool.sh or something similar before updating the rom. Hopefully, that same file in the new rom doesn't revert mine as well. Only one way to find out.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960686465

How much free space in /system shows to be available?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Same file size?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] JoeyDuran:
Your aplay is smaller, but your asound is bigger
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] net.cat:
19.84mb :( what can I safely remove to make some room?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I would just go with what I have for the sake of consistency. I figured they would be the same since they're both from androidexpert35.

In /system/app, delete the Google Editor folders and reboot. Then boot to recovery and flash ViPER again.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] lazer77:
[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] Here's something for you.. Can you take a look at this file and see what's different from your versions? I'm running DU and have heard it needs this patch to work with Pulse. I have flashed yours as per always and Pulse does not work.

Are you using the recommended settings for Atmos in the OP?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Annunneo:
I just dirtied my ROM and flashed the lunar edition and I have processing and neon from viper coming from version 4.2 atmos, I guess all is fine then. I'll listen to some stuff later see how it is.

Hey all, I wanted to share the zip I've been using successfully. This is for LP/MM users with an outside solution for Permissive Selinux, and does not include Atmos (which was causing serious cracks, pops and stutters with screen off.)

ViPERAudio 4.2.1 Dark Material - Beats Huawei Edition Permissive

This is the build.prop section added by the V4A Ultimate Installer from ages before, I've added it to my setup successfully:

I've changed those bottom two lines to 192000 and it seems to have improved the clarity just slightly at high volume - higher introduces cracking and popping.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] lazer77:
Related to v4a? I don't wanna have to flash a different version of viper, I'm partial to this.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Rhonin86:
Hi [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION],

meanwhile i have flashed 4.2.1 - and it works as always :)

a few days ago i reported something that was related to my problems concerning extreme crackling when a notification or a ringing sound was played over the phones speaker. Deactivating the convolver seemed to be the solution for my problem.

So i reactivate the convolver again in this new version and up to now no crackling sound - but as i mentioned earlier if a notification sound is played there is a sample of the former played notification sound. It seems as if the "cache/memory" used by the convolver isn't cleaned after playing a sound so that with playing the next sound the calculation uses the last sample found in the memory...

Is there a chance to get it wiped after played a sound ?

THX for all your work

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
If I try another kernel how would I apply it? Do I have to wipe system and reflash my rom? Basically, do I have to do it all over again, kernel, unsu, su, v4a?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
You mind providing a link to your particular rom?

:good:

:good:

You mind zipping up your /system/etc/audio_policy.conf and attach it to a reply so I can take a look?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
No wipes. Check your phone's xda section and look in the Original Android Development forum for your phone.

Hi guitaredhero, I have downloaded some IRS files and put them in kernel folder. V4A can read them but when I pick any of new irs, nothing happens and application still follow the previous active irs. You got any clue how to fix this?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Rhonin86:
Sure - here you go....
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
These are the build.prop lines from the zip you shared:

lpa.decode=false
lpa.releaselock=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
tunnel.decode=false

Save changes in build.prop and reboot.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
I switched from Franco's kernel to ElementalX, still getting pops and cracks. The sound was perfect when I was on 3.9 (with Franco's kernel) so I'm assuming this has something to do with the kernels and/or Dolby Atmos. Is there a kernel anyone can recommend that is working without the pops, etc., before I give Viper/Audio a try? I'd really like to keep Dolby Atmos if I can. I have a Nexus 6P running Purenexus rom and ElementalX.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] lazer77:
Unfortunately, that didn't fix it. :/
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Rhonin86:
Sry - my fault - next try....
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Attach your custom zip and I'll take a look. Also be sure to disable any stock music effects in:

Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System

From OP:

Stock kernel.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I looked at your provided /system/etc/audio_effects.conf and it's fine. Your issue lies in /system/etc/audio_policy.conf.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Rhonin86:
Please take a look to my former post - there you find the right file:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64842060&postcount=3109​

THX
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I'll investigate further. It's likely contained in audio_effects.conf as that zip replaces it in both locations.

No worries at all. Copy new one over, set permissions to 0644, and reboot.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Zip up both audio_effects.conf files and attach them to a post.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] JoeyDuran:
I got it!!!

Copied your files into the xtrememusic, edited the ones that had slight differences... Put your runme.sh scripts after xtrememusic one, and then put the neon quality runme.sh script right under yours. Copied the lib file that was in the neon quality zip into xtrememusic zip.

So far so good... V4a works, xtrememusic app works, and Dolby works. Plus have the NEON quality enabled ?

Uploading now and will attach a link

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Great job! :good:

Once you learn the insides, it starts to become clearer what all these zips do.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Rhonin86:
OK done, but the effect still exists... so for a very short period the previous sound-piece is played before the actual sound is played...

I have seen your made changes and they adress to an additional samplerate assigned to voice_tx

sampling_rates 8000|16000|44100|48000

Which are the responsible files that interpret irs-files ? I think the assigned memory used by the convolver must be cleared ... but this is just an assumption.

BTW - I am the only one experiencing this effect ?

Cheers

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Reechings:
Don't really want to wipe my system and dirty flash as I have already debloated my rom. Can you please give me the steps to completely uninstall my existing Viper/Atmos/Beats/Hauwei/RHR etc

Including what files to delete in system etc. I did have Viper installed before I flashed any of your zips originally so any heads up about other spots I should clean would be great.

Hoping for end result of flashing latest 4.2.1 Viper Atmos as if I had just done a clean installation of my rom. Hope I'm not asking too much and thanks!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
So you're saying the notification is not processed and then processed before finishing?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Look in /system/addon.d/23-v4adap.sh for a list of every file. Compare that to the files in your rom zip to see if you need to restore it. I'm thinking the only file in the mod overwriting an existing file is /system/lib/soundfx/libeffectproxy.so. Everything else in the backup list can simply be deleted except for /system/etc/audio_policy.conf. If you want the patched file restored then extract that file from your rom zip as well. Be sure to set permissions for those two files to 0644 before rebooting. You might want to do the same with both audio_effects.conf files. This will be a complete uninstallation. :good:

Oops, just saw RHR in your post. This will be a massive overtaking leaving a dirty rom flash a much, much easier uninstallation.

So, I should do a system wipe, flash Purenexus rom, gapps, unsu, su 2.66, v4a/Atmos, this right?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Are you just wanting to get stock kernel? Sorry, confused taking both questions into account.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Welcome to XDA!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pzyborg:
Yeah, couple posts back you suggested I might be able to get rid of the pops and such by trying the stock kernel. Seems every time I flash this thing I run into errors. Just want to make sure the steps are right before I do it this time since its working, yay.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Reechings:
Fair enough, I can always debloat again I guess. So does a wipe of system get rid of all Viper related files or do I need to delete anything out of /data/or anywhere else? I am thinking of just uninstalling Viper through titanium backup then wiping system and doing dirty flash of my rom. Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] lazer77:
Here you are.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Easiest way is to fastboot flash boot boot.img the boot.img from the factory image zip.

Is there not a TWRP flashable stock kernel in the 6p threads?

RHR-K and ViPER packages do not touch /data so a System wipe in TWRP followed by a dirty flash of your rom will be a complete uninstallation of all /system mods.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
What is the MD5 of /system/lib/soundfx/libvisualizer.so currently on your device?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] lazer77:
