OK I got it all working but now while in a phone call the sound cuts in and out.

Are you having this issue? If not I have to figure out what is causing it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

TIA!

What CAN i do, without BRICKING my phone?!

I bricked my 5054N last night after I used 3C Toolbox to edit Build.prop , moving 3rd party apps to the system, installed the latest Busybox and changed SElinux to permissive with Terminal Emulator, which one of these do you think did it? Maybe all of them? Am I NOT allowed to add ANYTHING to the system?

I have been playing with KA settings to try and find ways to tweak my phone for better performance. Maybe something I did conflicted with those files from the Nexus 6 link. So i reverted back to my original .conf files. Then I edited out the following lines in audio_policy.conf

compress_offload {

sampling_rates 8000|11025|16000|22050|32000|44100|48000

channel_masks AUDIO_CHANNEL_OUT_MONO|AUDIO_CHANNEL_OUT_STEREO

flags AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_DIRECT|AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_COMPRESS_OFFLOAD|AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_NON_BLOCKING

}

I did this to make viper process globally according to the viper thread. So far it is working and with the new viper 2.5.0.5 but I still am making sure nothing goes wrong. So far no random reboots bug I haven't tried to make phone calls yet.

There's the link to the official thread. I am unable to copy the download URL, when you click it it automatically asks you to download. Just search the thread and you should find it. Guitardedhero made a coulpe of zips if anyone is brave enough to use Flashify on them as his zips solve a lot of instillation headaches like editing system files and the like. But you must uninstall the previous version of viper before upgrading. The ui kicks ass but previously saved profiles will load but without the corresponding convolver. Not a dealbreaker for me.

Sometimes when you use an app that won't work with viper you have to ckick on the viper app to restart it. This is a problem I have with the Xiia app that I am trying to find a fix for. But as long as my music player, Youtube, Kodi and Twitch work I'm not in a big rush to find one. Also it will just kick in after a bit on its own. Just one question, did you reboot as soon as you did the Nexus fix? Or maybe you still have viper as a user app? Just trying to eliminate possibilities.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King_Rono:
That screenshot tells me that the su.d scrpit from the Nexus didn't run. Go back to using Kernal Adiutor and either use the SELinux changer or the init.d script. And moving viper to priv-app is easy. The permissions are already set so all you have to do is use a file explorer and physically move it to the new directory. The advantage of doing this is to keep the android task killer to not kill the app when recovering ram. System apps are ignored. Or another trick is to turn the viper notification on. It should keep it in memory. Never tried it though.

OK I set all the nexus files for Viper4Android back to stock and turned off kernel auditor and now my phone won't boot. I made sure all the permissions were correct. IDK what's going on. It boots up and goes through the optimization of all my apps then just keeps rebooting.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King_Rono:
I feel your pain. This is the first phone I had without a custom recovery. But I don't understand what could be going wrong. I removed those files and replaced them with my stock ones without fail. Maybe your file explorer could be causing a problem with moving the files idk.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King_Rono:
Ok, so I assume your driver status says abnormal. Are you changing Selinux to permissive and are you checking to see if it is being changed? Did you give v4a root permission? I'm sure you did but I don't have much to go on. Are you using KA to change Selinux? If so, go to custom controls, hit the three dots on the Selinux Changer and make sure you check the "on boot" box if you are on the latest version.

I'm using the init.d script and KA. I have to manually run it since it doesn't run at boot since the KA update. The KA latest update does have a SELinux mode changer and it does run at boot but I don't want permissive. But at worst case if you have to change it manually you at least know you can get viper to work.
