I've been on 4.5.1 - but just flashed 5.0 Atmos Sony edition - with no issues - perfect - as expected!

Also - this is my first time to run these installs WITHOUT ROOT - as I have now given up root so I can use AP.

And as expected - NO ISSUES - all is great.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
:victory: :victory: :highfive:

Congratulations! You might just be the first ever user with a fully functional ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1 with no root whatsoever! We're making history, friend! :good:

AnalogX, is it this reference?

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] luigidk:
Cool! Love being the first at anything (except maybe seeing how cold the water is! )

It was just too easy - downloaded 5.0 - flashed it... rebooted... great music...

Heck - you've almost taken away all the fun - I don't have to do anything - IT JUST WORKS!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
And I'm glad it's you, friend! :good:

I saw your post missing Adaway. Here's the latest Adaway /system/etc/hosts file. Just set permissions to 0644 and reboot after placing it there. There's only one way to find out if it breaks Android Pay so keep your stock hosts file handy in case you need to copy it back over. :good:

You'll need to boot into TWRP, mount System, and use TWRP's File Manager to copy it and change permissions.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Could be, but if it is then v4a is using the company name instead of an exact plugin.

If I am running, ViPERAtmos 3.9 Beats Huawei Edition Dark, what version should I upgrade to since this is no longer available?

Thanks, in advance.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Yeah restor visualization.. But app still not showing up move apk reboot and move back still not showing... Im trying this

Dirty flash rom and zip if not working

Wipe system flash rom plus gapps

If not work install the normal akp.. And waot for a fix or proceed

Whatever the case im satisfied..

But what can be the cause of app not showing..
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I would wipe System in TWRP and dirty flash your rom if you want 5.0 in its official state. However, if you want the Huawei™ files to remain then just flash 5.0 over your phone's current state. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
How much free /system space shows to be available?

Did you set the appropriate permissions after moving it back to /system/priv-app?

Does your rom include ViPER4Android? Remove all ViPER folders from these four locations:

/system/app

/system/priv-app

/data/app

/data/data

Flash your desired 5.0 package.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Poloasis:
I am currently on ViPERAtmos_4.5.2_Sony_Beats_Edition, and it's working unbelievably great with my AT Athcks1000. How should I upgrade to v5 of the same that's just posted?

TX guys. Great work.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Simply flash over your phone's current state. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] azsl1326:
Thanks for the prompt reply. So, if I dirty flash, which version of 5.0 - beats, sony, DD+, etc.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] vinman12:
Working perfect on my build vm13 bacon. Visualizer working also.

Ty
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
All packages handle all possible dirty flash scenarios except for removing the Beats™ files as those possibly could be stock files on our HTC friends' devices. A System wipe in TWRP and dirty rom flash is required to remove the Beats™ files if desired.

The pleasure is all mine, thanks for your report! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Yes working now showing visualizer working too.. I all perfect

Thanks for everything ..
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Success! :highfive:

Thank you for hanging in there with me and let me know if there's anything you need later. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] desirexel:
Thanks you soooooo much ? ?sure always testing.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Sc4ryB3ar:
Unless it's a setup for future use to use any anologX plugin? Maybe? I dunno, just a thought

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] SuperSimian:
I noticed the install script deletes data/app/Viper4Android, is this necessary? I must install the apk manually on each update to get convolver functionality, it's no big deal but it's becoming sort of annoying.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
This explains my reasoning for deleting the data installation:

Otherwise, it wouldn't work and you'd have to delete the /data installation, reboot, and install to /data again. :good:

I uninstalled DSP manager and I tried it, still didn't work. I uninstalled xtreme music app, still didn't work [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
XTREMEMusic app? What are you trying to make work? I never recommend uninstalling or deleting stock audio effects. I recommend disabling those stock audio effects instead.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] viddy1355:
[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] I'm trying to make the Dolby atmos work but it just doesn't want to, as for why I deleted DSP its because I use viper now.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] yellowman82:
ok yea i see them and even though its a few i'm guessing the correct permission for most of them are the code 0644? this is where i never understood some of these because i see some in folders and well the folder would be set to permission code 0755. So say a bunch of files are around that 1 folder do i need to set them files to 0755 like the folder or i need to set it to 0644? or is it that you only use 0755 only for folders that files or apk are going in to but if a file is not going into a folder and its just sitting outside i set it as 0644?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
It's easiest to compare to permissions of files that were already there. Some files do require permissions of 0755.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] blueyes:
Anyone know where I can get presets or irs for Bose OE2?

My viper works fine when I have ear buds inserted. However through a pair of computer speakers, it still just plays through my phone speakers. The app says it is playing through headset though. I'm baffled.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] aoaleman:
Known issue with the zips when played via an aux connection. Speakers, car, etc. Try installing just the apk.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] bdivs11:
This is fixable but all you need to do is install benzo rom, use root browser to extract the audio_policy.conf and paste that file in your ROM of choice when using viper and aux will work PM if you need further instructions
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] stumpy352:
You could, of course, upload the audio_policy.conf from benzo ROM, so we don't have to download 300+mB of ROM & we can compare the difference. That is, if you don't mind, of course. ?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] bdivs11:
I would need permission from xanaxdroid as it's apart of his Rom

hello

I have never use viper sound before

anyone will help to setup for IN CALL VOLUME and CLEAR VOICE , please
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mmmjj123:
In all my experiences with v4a on other devices, the sound improved the OVERALL sound quality on those devices but on my Nexus 6 it only functions with play music and nothing else (i.e. iheart radio, slacker, tune in radio) what can I do so that it works for all phone output and not just my stock music player?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrBrady:
Make sure the build.prop modifications are installed. Those make it work with other music players

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] yellowman82:
How bout with Pandora? I usually use Pandora and my mix tape app but can't really tell if it's actually working or not through speaker.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrBrady:
On my N6 running Euphoria and this zip with the build.prop mods, Viper4Android works everywhere. Throw on a set of headphones. You'll hear the difference.

Anyone tried this on M yet on Shamu? I'm waiting on a download to finish and soon as it does I'll flash and report back. Will brb within the hour... (Fingers crossed) :D
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] danarama:
Needs root and selinux permissive. Is that possible now?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] aoaleman:
[MENTION=4490399]flashback7[/MENTION], yes it is. Root and permissive on okibi's M ROM packed with DespairFactor's kernel. Runs well.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] :
Got tied up doing things... Awesome! Almost done downloading p5 now. Gonna update and install v4a. ;)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] aoaleman:
Cool! I always "uninstall" the stock MusicFX app before installing V4A. Deleting the folder in Priv-App does the job.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] :
All I did was flash V4A in twrp 2.8.6.0 and that's it. Works perfect! :D
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mervingio:
On Android M?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Wipe System in TWRP and dirty flash your rom. Reboot and check for sufficient free /system space and disable any stock audio effects:

Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System

Boot to recovery and flash your desired 5.0 package. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jkdrinkard:
Ok I need help. I'm at my wits end. I wiped system in twrp, etc. V4A is still there. I've tried deleting the folder, I get an error deleting files message. I just want a clean install of V4A. Any other options for deleting the folder? I can't figure it out and it's driving me crazy! (yes it's a short drive lol)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] luigidk:
Nice - copied, chmod to 0644 and rebooted - no issues - passes safetynet!

Makes sense as this is all that AdAway does - sort of a misleading name - it is really a hosts file manager!

Is there a place where I can go in the future to find that hosts file - as entries do tend to change over time.

Thanks much... looks like root is needed less and less now!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Vanilla v4a with no extras? Have you tried flashing ViPER|Audio™ 5.0 Stock? It should delete everything in the process.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jkdrinkard:
Is the atmos Sony beats version. So if I flash stock, it will delete everything else. Then I just flash the version I want right?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Awesome! I thought I remembered seeing someone mention the hosts file causing a conflict so that's fantastic news!

The easiest way might be to have a spare rooted device to get the latest hosts file.

What was your method of obtaining dt2w? I'll see what I can do for you in that regard. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Sorry, I misunderstood you. Every package will delete everything before installing except for the Beats™ files as I don't want to remove possible stock files from our HTC friends' devices. Is the ViPER package you're flashing not installing correctly?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jkdrinkard:
I had the issue with profiles not switching. The sound never changed. So I wanted a clean install.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Do this after flashing:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jkdrinkard:
I'll give it a try. Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chanthoeunpen:
so what i understand to make pulse work you need to do a clean flash of the rom

our dirty flash the rom above the current rom to make pulse work?:confused::confused::confused::confused:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
No, you should not have to. That is an absolute last resort. Your best bet is to install a Sony™ Beats™ Edition as the libeffectproxy.so in that series is what is needed which I've finally figured out. There will be an update tomorrow with more Supolicy edits as well as making that particular libeffectproxy.so the default file for all packages.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
I come back home and guitardedhero has already hooked it up. Time to flash the new Sony beats atmos with rehear.. Good looks, guitardedhero
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Enjoy man!

And keep in mind if, for whatever reason, I'm not able to provide a ViPER|Atmos™ build for your favorite sound mod quickly enough, ViPER|Atmos™ 5.0 Stock will always work perfectly simply because of the patching of the audio_effects.conf files. That allows it to not alter or break anything it is flashed over. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chanthoeunpen:
viperatmos sony beats our the normal sony beats?

I'm new to the V4A and I just installed the new 5.0 V4A Atoms Beats and Sony version and wanted to know if I was suppose to see profiles or some sort to activate it? Also installed the beats port from the link provided in the OP.

how to fix visualization in cm music player? using viperatmos 5.0 ..
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Roarmaster:
Hi guitardedhero, i would like to ask for your opinion. How would you compare your "DFX hip hop modern" irs to Zuhang's "razor surround 48k z-edition 1. Stereo +0 bass" irs (#3 Under z/h editions, found in his thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2442933)?

I personally prefer Zuhang's due to the fuller sound... Although the DFX irs has pretty clear vocals. Any thoughts?

On viperamos 5.0. No cracking sounds so far. Thanks. LG G4 GR 3.7.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] lontu:
I am on device OnePlus one with Android 5.1.1 and getting galley error while playing videos after flashing the provided zip (tried both stock and Beats). Would be grateful if someone please provide any solution.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] anstaendig:
Which means I can just flash the new version over the old one?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Phrodini:
As long as I get the base mod I'm good. I can always wait for customs, especially with all the things on your plate. The way the updates work by just flashing one over the other seamlessly is Tightwhurk.

---------- Post added at 05:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 AM ----------

I'm not sure if profiles are included but you can download the Audiophile from the first post, extract it and enjoy. Oh, when you tried to load profile nothing appeared?

---------- Post added at 05:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 AM ----------

Nope, it works on other devices. Dolby force closes when you open it and viper4android works?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] DirkStorck:
Hi, I have just flashed ViPERAtmos_5.0_Sony_Beats_Edition.zip and copied the content of ViPERAudio_Audiophile_2.0_Profile_Extract_Only.zip, the ViPER4Android directory, to the root of my internal sd card. If I open "load profile" within the app I can't see a profile.

Could someone please tell me what I did wrong? Thank you! :D
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chrisram88:
Extract to root of SD card then move to v4a profile folder. Should be found at data/media/legacy/v4a
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] pkarekar492:
Hi guitardhero.......is sony walkman include visualizer also.....as not able to find....after seraching in thread only understood i have to move some apk to out from priv and again in after reboot...plz guide
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] DirkStorck:
Thank you! Found it! now the profiles can be found :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Not device specific at all. I suggest flashing ViPER|DD+™ over your phone's current state. I am assuming all stock audio effects are already disabled.

No profiles are included with the installation, extract-only zips are provided to extract the Audiophile™ profiles to your working v4a directory.

Which ViPER|Atmos™ package?

It's so subjective as so many variables produce a received sound but I tend to stick IRS files that are at least 128kb in size. In my usage, I've always preferred DFX, SRS, and Dolby.

Awesome man!

Really odd, you might try a Sony™ Beats™ package as it includes a different libeffectproxy.so.

Absolutely!

I've never noticed a visualizer with the Sony™ Music app.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jmfinity:
tested audiophile 2.0, 1st version of audiophile profile is still much better imho :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Thanks for trying and providing a report! Which ViPER package?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jmfinity:
ViperAudio and Atmos 5.0
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Stock or Sony™ Beats™?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jmfinity:
oh sorry i forgot, it's Sony™ Beats™ Edition.

That is what version 2.0 is, he has done it already, read the OP.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] deeplyyoung:
I want to try ViPERAtmos_5.0_Sony_Beats_Edition with DU & already using V4A_Dolby_Beats_DU_Shamu_Pulse_Patched_v3 as of now, don't want to mess with the current setup, as clean flash take much time.. {Tibu also not showing backups to restore over other Rom's (MR)} so will wait for your Update & gonna give a try...

infact with new Feb security updates i'm going to flash all Rom's clean but still update is update which always updated :p
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] jmfinity:
it is already included in 5.0 :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
All ViPER 5.0 packages contain the latest ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1 apk. I updated mere hours after 2.4.0.1 was first known. :good:

Flash away!

And I'm thrilled to have made your stay more pleasant! :good:

ViPER 5.0 :good:

Stick with Sony™ included packages and you should be good! :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] deeplyyoung:
It means I can give a try to Viper Atmos 5 Sony Beats Edition or ViperDD+ 5 Sony Beats Edition.. Right?..

That's great..
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] viddy1355:
[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] I tried dd+ and it didn't work, maybe it doesn't work on my device
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] mpgrimes:
OK. Tried installing viper atmos Sony beats 5.0 and don't get the viper app in my app list, tried mentioned fixes and still no go. Installed viper dd+ Sony beats 5.0 and it shows up fine.. But dd app crashes once in a while. Atmos version worked fine on all previous versions....
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I strongly suspect a rom incompatility rather than a device incompatility.

If v4a does not show up in App Drawer, move /system/priv-app/ViPER4AndroidFX-2.4.01 to /sdcard/Download, reboot, move /sdcard/Download/ViPER4AndroidFX-2.4.0.1 to /system/priv-app, set v4a folder permissions to 0755, set v4a apk permissions to 0644, and reboot.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] junioramboy:
Just a heads up, in Viper|Atmos Sony Beats 4.5.2, sometimes, Dolby Atmos gets disabled, I had to open the app again to get the effect back. Version 5.0 fixed it for me. Thanks a lot.

Flashed ResurrectionRemix, solved all of my issues.

Can't load/save profiles but that's not really a needed thing. Convolvers are working. Beautiful sound, thanks for the mod.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] vinman12:
Baked the new viper into my ROM all working great, renamed old viper folder to new viper folder this way all is good if anyone dirty flashes new viper there won't be multiple viper folders in private app. All good.

Trying to blow out my windows now in truck lol will report back.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Neutr1no:
FYI, fixed that by assigning 777 permissions to both Kernel and Profile folders under path /data/media/legacy/ViPER4Android.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Hopefully, you'll soon find your working v4a directory. No compromises with ViPER|Audio™! :good:

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] sordup:
Mine has stopped working

After a month of this working for me, Viper4Audio has stopped working for no apparent reason. I have done nothing to my phone in the meantime but update a few unrelated apps.

Now when trying to engage V4A no effects are heard and when looking at driver status it shows not enabled and status: "Abnormal". Uninstalling the driver and reinstalling did not help, and neither did flashing the latest (v. 5 V4A-Atmos-Sony) version from here!

What could be going on?

I am on stock ROM, rooted Nexus 5X
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] vinman12:
Windows still good, lol any good setups anyone uses for truck/car I'm curious to see who uses what.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
I'm still working on perfecting the Supolicy script for everyone. An instant quick fix is to swipe v4a out of Recents and immediately reopen v4a. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] darkstar73:
I'm using Viper|Atmos 5.0 on a Nexus 6 with Franco Kernel. Is there anything that can be done about the pops, clicks & skips that occur while listening to music? I have set Poweramp, Viper, & Atmos to a performance profile in the Franco app but it doesn't help.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Suicidal Chicken:
After coming from Lolliviper on my Nexus 6P - I installed the stock version and installed the audiophile profile. All I can say, is fuc*ing WOW!

I use some cheapy earphones (JVC something-something,) and it's drastically improved all ranges (Bass, mid and treble.)

I'm going to try with my AMP and Sennheiser 598's and I'll report back!

Wow, again!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] mpgrimes:
I tried that but couldn't get it to work, must have missed something, got it to work by flashing dd+ then atmos. ?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
The stock N6 kernel works amazingly well. :good:

That's awesome to hear man! :good:

Thanks for reporting, I'll compare the two install scripts. :good:
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Zertech:
I do have the working directory actually, if I rename the Audiophile folder "Test" it shows up in Viper as "Test", and loading it does work after my last reboot, but I have to enable/disable it in order to take effect. I cannot save profiles still. Weird huh.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Suicidal Chicken:
One quick question though - I'm by no means an audiophile (in the figurative sense,) but I'm able to distinguish good audio from bad (FLAC from MP3 etc.)

Obviously, when using cans rated at 64Ohms and higher a portable DAC would be required in order to achieve correct amplification - is there any added benefit using Viper as well? Purely asking theoretically
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] guitardedhero:
Save any open v4a tab as a New Profile named " Zertech" and find the Profile folder in which it is saved.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Zertech:
Unfortunately, profiles are not saved. I have tried this. Viper can read profiles placed into its directory but does not have write access to save or overwrite profiles.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] maxime506:
Hi,

I flashed the 5.0 Sony beat edition zip via twrp. My phone is htc one m8 running Google play edition Marshmallow 6.0 rom.

The v4a installed correctly however IRS files are unaccessable. The app keeps looking IRS files from /storage/emulated/legacy folder and this folder is a read only. I tried with root explorer but I can't place the IRS files into this folder.

Any fix for this?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] darkstar73:
I switched over to the stock Kernel. No difference. Its like I'm listening to a scratched CD.
