Yeah that's what I thought. That 100 step mod in Poweramp works but only for PA. Not in other media players. That's OK. I use PA like 90% of the time.

I tried the Hi Res mode and it broke Viper. No biggy. Viper makes everything sound so good it's not needed.

Help. After installing Viper|Dolby v5.5 on G925i Crisscross_Rom_v5.0 (MM 6.0.1) Viper does not create any installation library.. When i save preset from Viper it doesnt write to my disk.

Both /data/media/legacy/ViPER4Android and /STORAGE/emulated/0/ViPER4Android is both empty. Even After making folders in there and placing files.

Can u help me please?

Zip?

Sorry I'm confused, which zip do I flash? Viper4audio 5.4 stock or viper4android 2.4.0.1

On cm13 JDC TEAM Optimized on my S4
[Android Software Development] neonkat:
depends upon you,5.5 uses new v4a while 4.8 uses old v4a libraries.

for v4a stock,will recommend 5.4 or newer ones.
[Android Software Development] jazzmachine:
*I'm not using this package on my Note 4, which I'm going to refer to because all three packages are built into the ROM that I'm using (TEKXodus 7.2). I am using it on my Tab S2 though :)

I was having problems with PowerAmp on my N4; distortion, static, "non-optimal SQ", so I started trying out different music players. I ended up settling on Neutron which sounds freaking amazing! It has some really great settings in the new versions, and is entirely compatible with V4A (and Atmos/Beats). I haven't tried the new version of PowerAmp because I uninstalled it about a month ago, but I'd recommend checking out the trial of Neutron to see if it sounds better on your setup.

[MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] Atmos from v4.8 isn't working on my S2, but Viper is great! I did see a post for Dolby Atmos v6.5... do you think that flashing that over this package (dirty, post-nandroid) would work? The tablet is rooted but on the stock ROM/stock, enforcing kernel since there's very little development for the LTE versions of that tablet.

For some reason, the driver keeps becoming u installed after listening to any audio in Google chrome. I have tried disabling and enabling audio effects. The only fix seems to be reinstalling viper 4.8 from bootloader. Anyone have any ideas
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
If you like Neutron, which is certainly fantastic for sure, be sure to go to Play Store > Neutron and go to its info page to look for a link to their NEON builds on their actual website that is not provided through Play Store. With every available Neutron update, do not update through Play Store. Instead, go to the info page for that same link and download the updated NEON version. :good:

After the last three days consumed in a tweak.prop project I am ready for some couchlock for sure lol! :highfive:

By uninstalling, I am assuming you mean an Abnormal, Unsupported Driver Status. This is usually the result of an audio focus issue which can be immediately solved by swiping v4a out of Recents and immediately reopen v4a. I can take a look at your /system/etc/audio_policy.conf if you want to provide it. :good:
[Android Software Development] MINTED7:
android n support? if yes which one
[Android Software Development] Cowbell_Guy:
Regarding the final post... Yes, that is exactly what is happening! Should I email you my audio policy file?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
I was only on N for 10 - 20 minutes, long enough to find adjustments needed to be made to restore full v4a functionality and that Root Explorer would FC upon opening. Root Explorer is more important than perhaps any other app besides phone/text so I can communicate with customers.

Does /system/su.d/50viper.sh exist with 0755 permissions?

I'm wondering if placing 50viper.sh in /su/su.d with 0755 permissions for /su/su.d and /su/su.d/50viper.sh would do it...

[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
What are you using to switch to Permissive that would cause that on a N6? Permissive is only required when not using SuperSU.

thanks for the info.

if you have audiofx,then REMOVE THAT BULLSH!T.
[Android Software Development] Cowbell_Guy:
Thanks in advance for your help. I believe I have uploaded the audio_policy.conf in a zip file.

Basically, what happens, is that everything is all and well and working perfectly, and then, randomly, for some reason the sound will cut out. Usually this will be when using audio attached to a chrome web file (i.e. soundcloud). At that moment, it seems as if the viper driver becomes uninstalled. I will go into viper and it well say unsupported device status, driver not installed, etc.

I will try restarting, etc, no dice. I am on your 4.8 file, no atmos or dolby digital. The only way to get viper back seems to be re-installing the file, and then restoring one of the old audio profiles. It will then ask me to choose between the 3 types of drivers, i.e. super, high, or power saving, etc. (I always choose the intermediate, high quality option, fwiw). While this is usually something I can fix within a few minutes, by re-installing each time, its really just more of a nuisance. What am I doing wrong?

I have moto x pure, rooted, and am running truepure 2.7 with franken 0.9 kernel. THANKS!!!
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Here you go.

It shouldn't make any difference if you select a different driver than what is preinstalled, meaning it doesn't cause it to conflict as the audio_effects entries are the same and the driver library is overwritten, but I would uninstall driver, reboot, copy this file over your existing one, set 0644 permissions, open v4a and select Super Quality when prompted, and reboot.

[MENTION=5323581]Cowbell_Guy[/MENTION]

I think I stumbled upon something that may cure all kinds of no v4a processing users face with some apps or audio and cure all Abnormal/Unsupported instances.

[Android Software Development] Cowbell_Guy:
Excuse my ignorance but what's 0664 permissions

Only Apps updated with Marshmallow's new Permissions system will prompt for permissions access, but those older apps sometimes won't be enabeld by default, especially in AOSP.

I will update the OP as soon as a newer test version passes the test and meets my standards for ultimate quality and compatibility. It seems that 4.9 still suffers a bit with compatibility that the versions in this OP currently provide.

I use to have an S3 rooted, before it broke. I have since upgraded to a Note 4 from AT&T. Unfortunately, there is no root available for my device in its current state, running 5.1.1 at the moment. What I miss about being rooted is mainly viper4android, which made I big difference on how I would listen to music.

Long story short, will this work on a stock, non-rooted Galaxy Note 4 on ATT (SG-N910A)? If so, what do I need to know that at it will or will not?

You need SuperSU or a Permissive kernel on anything Lollipop and above.

Yall gotta try out the Poweramp v3 alpha. I set the Resampler type to SOX and I use the stereo expand as my only surround. My sound is so clear I'm hearing faint background sounds that sound fantastic.
[Android Software Development] nereis:
Actually, if you have a device like lg g3 which has a Snapdragon soc, with the proper rom support, then you can enable direct 24bit/44.1khz output without having yo go through the android software mixer, which force resamples everything to 48khz on output. The high quality sox resampler really helps with getting around the resampling issue, but even better if you can manage to bypass it.

I am currently running a kang of your 4.8 v4a only mods with pdesire's asound / high quality resampler, with everything modded to 48000 hz in the settings, and it does sound better than your current implementation.

I have a Sony 5.1.1 device which on stock relies on terrible software algorithm to resample, and cause a lot of audible artifacts.(especially noticeable on 20hz to 20khz sine sweep in 44.1k sample rate, lots of aliasing audible) Flashing your mod reduces the level of aliasing to much lower magnitude but remains audible, and after merging everything asound related and mod to convert to 48khz (not the crazy upsampling, for the lack of better term) the output from my tablet now passes the sine sweep AND the udial test, later which even the current Samsung phones with high quality resampler fails.

If you would like to have a look at my current implementation, I can provide the files upon request.

Absolutely, please share! :good:
