[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] adm1jtg:
just loaded up .82 alt config and deep buffer caused it not to process again. Manually removed lines and now processing but through speaker doesn't sound good at all. Will try headphones when I get time. I may have caused my own problems editing the file directly can someone link me to deep buffer remover i see lots of references and even to another thread but cannot find the actual zip.

EDIT: Hate to be THAT guy but loaded up .82 and then back to 81 edited out the deep buffer that didnt remove itself and on both installs the sound was absolutely horrible with artifacts and squealing and static intermixed with the music. A truly horrible experience. I changed governers and t hat stopped the background artifacts but the music still sounds like its playing through 2 tin cans.

I dont have time to mess with stuff to much more but will post here and check back when I have more time. Sorry to ruin what was a perfect run for 81 and 82 probably something I am doing or something about my custom rom that is not compatible.

Setup:

Nexus 6

Yasop 120 rom (has may security fixes)

Yasop kernel running yankactive but also tried ondemand

Tested on speaker and koss porta pro headphones with audofile 4.0 profile

audio_policy used in .81 http://bit.ly/1SVoQKo

Hope thats enough, I hope its just something I am doing wrong but As I have a long weekend I have to revert this as its painful to listen to music this bad.

Last Edit: Gone till Sunday just wanted to say I reverted back to stock rom no v4a at all and the sound is tremendously better. There is obviously something I am doing wrong or some incompatability with my setup hopefully we can work through this as I know the goal is complete compatability on all roms and all phones.

It should, but dirty flashing your rom after wiping System in TWRP is so quick and easy if there are any issues and need a fresh /system to start with, all while keeping your /data intact.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Kodijack:
I love it, thanks for the work!

BUT...why do neither Atmos nor Viper work with MediaMonkey or PowerAmp or Listen!Audiobookplayer?

Playing a file with e.g. TotalCommander works fine, but said apps simply seem to be not affected by Viper/Atmos. Why is that so?!

I really love Viper and Atmos but MediaMonkey and Listen are my essential apps :(

PowerAmp works but try this NEON version of Neutron's latest update not provided through Google Play Store.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] binaryfalcon:
on a nexus 6p,

what would be the difference between installing the .zip and installing viper manually?

i understand the zip does some (? necessary ?) patching, but just installing it manually (priv app, rename audio_effects.conf) makes it easier to uninstall it later on
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Kodijack:
Thanks, but sadly I just tried PowerAmp trial from the store because MediaMonkey/Listen didn't work, I don't really need it.

Don't all music-programs use the same API? Or why do some simply ignore all equalizers+co?

And way to change that?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Tex99:
The sound with this version of xtrememusic is AMAZING!!! Audiophile profile + Dolby atmos settings in op....wow...sound is great, Dolby app makes the difference. I turn off Xtreme music app because I don t know what to change for having better audio, because now seems to be perfect, I ll wait that you share settings for it, if necessay :) . Thank you again guitardedhero, thats great.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
The only extra work would be to edit these manually by adding the libraries and effects to audio_effects.conf, and deleting paragraphs from audio_policy.conf:

/system/etc/audio_effects.conf

/system/vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf

/system/etc/audio_policy.conf

In PowerAmp, Settings > Audio > Advanced > uncheck BT volume control

You want the top two boxes to be unchecked or either grayed out.

Thank you, it's what I've been using since I put it together. Still the same ViPER|Atmos™ settings and I have yet to even get XTREMEMusic app to open without FC so nothing modified for it if it is even active. Kinda nice to have such pleasing results to not miss an unusable app lol.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] binaryfalcon:
What I meant is that installing viper without modifying these still works, I'm just wondering if there's any audio processing in the background that breaks if you do not do so.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
The v4a_fx and v4a_standard_fx entries are half of what achieves the pre-installed driver. Installing v4a in any manner will do this automatically once you click yes to install/update the driver. It really is just an unnecessary convenience in ViPER|Atmos™ and ViPER|Audio but is necessary in my objective to getting ViPER to those with TWRP but no possible root.

Dolby Atmos™ does not add these entries on its own, at least I assume it does not. These entries are required for Atmos™ to process.

The removal of the Deep Buffer paragraph is necessary in certain cases for v4a and/or Dolby Atmos™ processed streamed audio like Pandora™ and Spotify™.

I felt it was needed to include the last two descriptions if I want to create what I hope will soon be the "standard" or "go-to" ViPER Installer.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
The tweakprop script does not merely add lines to the end of /system/build.prop. Lines that are existing on /system/build.prop will reflect any changes in its current line. Only nonexistent lines that /sdcard/telweak.prop contains will appear at the bottom of tweak.prop.

If you add a line to /sdcard/tweak.prop to change the default DPI, that line will not be on the bottom of /system/build.prop. The line will be patched where it sits. This eliminates duplicate or opposing entries. :good:

I'm sorry for not specifying. Dirty flashing is always acceptable unless I state otherwise. :good:

Yeah, the script has been a persistant head-scratcher as solid, consistent scripts suddenly seem to have no effect for many users lately. I don't know if it's TWRP or BusyBox...

And don't hate to be "that guy", this is all about providing feedback to make this the best we can possibly make it so that the official launch will be a successful one. I count on you guys more than many of you know. I've always considered this to be "our" sound mod and has the fingerprints of countless individuals in this thread. :good:

I'm sure you are aware that this is certainly an isolated issue with that particular rom setup. I am completely unfamiliar with that rom but I know you know I've been on N6 since launch and build everything provided here on that device's stock rom. You might ask the dev about third party sound mods possibly conflicting with native ones the rom might include or if the kernel is a substantial change from stock.

0.8.2 took two full days as I was experimenting with some stuff that just sounded terrible. I got frustrated with that and looked at a couple LG system pulls (G5 and V10) and then I remembered about the Xperia X system leak a few days ago that I never even downloaded as I felt I had "moved on" from Sony and wanted to continue on a different path as nearly every sound mod is using Z5 Premium MM libraries at the moment. There were a couple new things that intrigued me and when I started testing them, I had finally begun progressing forward lol! It sounded really nice and then I wanted to include the rest (0.8.3) which I think is even better! :good:

I seem to have deleted it, or perhaps I stripped it down to make the ViPER|Audio™ version of it. If no one has it to share you can easily flash eXB™ directly over ViPER|Audio™ as not a single file will be overwritten or modified by the other. :good:

I just flashed 083 (alternate tweak.prop), and it is on point! You know the balance is right when you can hear the flicking of the bass strings and also feel the thump it makes.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Alanon:
Hi fellas. I'm a longtime user of V4A, and when I got a new device with lollipop, I immediately started searching a way to get Viper on it. And I found this amazing thread, with stuff that actually improves on the Viper sound! I was amazed, and just wanted to thank the devs for their hard work and dedication.

I do have a couple of questions. I have installed the Viper DD+ Sony beats Edition version 5.5, as I've read somewhere that Atmos might have issues with some devices. However, I have a strange problem with battery draining. The way I've set up my use of the apps is that I use Viper only on headphones (that checkmark is always on), and I also manually switch off DD+ after I stop playing music. It made sense to me that this set-up would minimise battery use, and confine it to only when there's actual playback. However, it seems that even after the music is terminated, mediaserver continues to run in the background. I'm comfortable with some battery drain, but 35% battery usage for mediaserver seems a bit much if I listened to only 30 minutes of music that day? I've tried rebooting, wiping media cache, and all those other fixes you find on the web for mediaserver drain. The only thing that seems to work is the app mediaserver killer. Still, I would like to not need to do that every time I stop playing music. Is there anything else I can do to make sure mediaserver stop on its own?

I've also noticed this new ARISE module mentioned in the last dozen pages. Is it really that much better than Viper? I would really like to hear some comments and perhaps comparisons from people that've tried both? Perhaps this new module would solve the drain?

Cheers!

I'm amazed by your drive in finding the ultimate sound experience and sharing it with us. Thank you. One thing I'm a little lost on-some folks are saying that, in addition to adding the alternate tweak prop, renaimg, and adding to the SD card, we should also extract the tweakprop.zip and flash it. Others mentioned that you included a script in the arise package, so need to flash both arise and the script. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

No, the script is included in the zip. The tweakprop.zip is only if you want to change your tweak.prop file, say, from alternate to suggested for example.
