Don't you hate it when that happens?! I am scrapping the Stubborn Device series as I think I've found a better solution thanks to [MENTION=4698449]themoto[/MENTION].

You might want to wipe system and dirty flash your rom so everything is in a pristine state.

Download the attachment below. Install apk as user just like any apk, reboot when prompted after opening, boot to recovery and flash 5.3. :good:

The pleasure is all mine man! Working on compatibility until some new cool stuff pops up! :good:

do i need to flash neon or x86 version of the stock ViPER4Android version on my nexus 6p? thanks!
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
6p is an arm NEON chip but the ViPER packages do this already! If you are looking for a solution to a v4a installation from elsewhere then NEON is what you want. If you already installed a ViPER package and experience a persistent install driver prompt then simply rename /vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf as nothing else will fix it unless you update vendor via fastboot. :good:
[Android Software Development] heleos:
What exactly does audio_effects.conf do? I have issues getting v4a to work with pulse, but when I rename audio_effects.conf everything works fine. I just updated my vendor via fastboot but I still had to rename audio_effects
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Thanks man! That's the culmination of many blood, sweat, and tears from me and my testers, now show your friends why your phone is better than theirs! :highfive:

[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
audio_effects.conf, especially the one in /vendor or /system/vendor is what Android System reads to activate existing effects through existing libraries to output through audio_policy.conf specifications. :good:

I've heard instances where vendor would have to be flashed two or three times in TWRP. If you are forced to rename the vendor config, I'd recommend copying it over /system/etc/audio_effects.conf as that file will always have the full stock libraries and effects. :good:

Thank you! Do you mean copying the file from system and overwriting the one in vendor, or the other way around?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
The vendor file, even though it is patched correctly and not recognized as having valid entries, it has every entry for your device including my entries. Place the /system file somewhere safe just in case though. :good:

Yo guitarded can you construct PD V.L.U 5.3 Sony Beats ?
[Android Software Development] lalon12:
some good sound profile please

Enviado desde mi XT1032 mediante Tapatalk
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
No need, my packages will never contain the amount of files of third party sound mids like PD, RHR-K, ExtremeBeats, and XtremeMusic. My ViPER|Atmos™ build of PD is already current with what PD offers as it has a page of build.prop lines which is all that is added in 5.3. The more you throw in the less compatibility you create, but like I said, there is no real upgrade. The last true upgrade was when the Sony™ files were added. My updates are almost always script or compatibility updates. I'm not opposed to adding more stuff, there is simply nothing available to make it better at the moment except for making it functional for other devices. :good:

Audiophile™ 3.0 hands down, it includes all three Audiophile™ profiles along with the best IRS series available - DFX. :good:

I overwrote the /system/etc file with the file from vendor/etc and lost pulse. I'm trying to compare the files side by side and see whats different between the 2 to see if I can pinpoint
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Are you on 6p or 5x? The vendor file always overrides the config file so if it doesn't work then it wasn't readable bit would still override being in an unreadable state which would cause it not to work from the get go. Did you set permissions to 0644 after copying over? I'm sorry that I forgot to mention that but it's the only thing that makes sense if your vendor file was working before.
[Android Software Development] heleos:
I'm on a 6p. In order to get v4a and pulse both working, i renamed my /vendor/etc file to .bak, and pulse works. I did set permissions after copying over
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
So weird, there is something about those vendor installs that is so inconsistent. I hear fastboot updates work fine, then not; then I hear TWRP vendor updates work after one or three times of flashing. Did you save your config file somewhere safe to move over? I'm sorry I had you perform an unnecessary maneuver, you were perfectly fine with just the config file and renaming the vendor config. :(
[Android Software Development] heleos:
I did follow your advice and took a backup of the system file :P So I won't miss out much by using the file in system vice vendor?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Absolutely not. Honestly, it's my ocd at work trying to keep your device as stock as possible with no workarounds whatsoever. :good:

I've got a Minix 8X-H running 4.4. Had a previous stock version of Viper running no problem. I tried installing the Stock 4.5.2 zip from your JB/KK links and for some reason the Atmos app always FCs when I launch it. Everything else works fine. Any suggestions on what I could do to get Atmos working?

Did you try Dolby digital plus?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Not important at all and will be removed in the next release. They were part of a compatibility test which proved to not have any bearing. :good:

nice music taste btw :)
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Check the OP for a section underneath the installation instructions I added last night after talking to dr.ketan. :good:

Very likely, I recommend ViPER|Atmos™ Stock, should sound killer. :good:

Precisely why ViPER|DD+™ is available! :good:

No worries, if you've installed one of my ViPER packages here and experience the persistent install driver prompt the rename /vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf to /vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf.bak. :good:

btw , have you tried MaxxStudio into your mix before ?

Thanks for the kind words man and I'm thrilled it's all working great for you! MaxxStudio? Don't think I've run into that at all, I'll have to take a look.

Do to know a profile for a bass on-ear headphone?

Hi, I'm using your sound mod, it's just great for my in ear headphone but I also have an on ear headphone which its bass centric so the mod increases this than the other frequencies. Well the question is do you know a profile for a bass centric headphone that increases clarity and have good bass?

I'm sorry if I wrote something wrong I don't speak english
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
I would start by disabling Dynamic System and dropping ViPER Bass to 6dB. :good:
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Edit∆*******

4.6 continues work using the previous ViPER4Android 2.3.4.0 after reports of the new ViPER4Android apk being a downgrade in sound quality. This is not an unreasonable assumption given that the new apk only provides one compatible driver with no reference to its purpose being more sound quality driven or more power saving driven. I am testing this now and would have to say this is definitely the recommended version rather than 5.3 which uses the new apk. 4.6 also includes the /system/build.prop lines from 5.3 which have proven to be very beneficial to Audio Focus and curing all problems experienced with the supolicy scipt on Enforcing Selinux. Honestly, everything seems absolutely perfect and I can't see anything improving this build other than sound enhancements that are later found. :good:
[Android Software Development] gimpy1:
I went in and did a complete uninstall and used the method you suggested in your op. After doing the wipe in recovery, I went into the "mount" section in recovery and unchecked the system as you suggested. I then dirty flashed my rom and reinstalled V4A (4.6 atmos beats edition, your latest). Anyway, my question is : I went back into recovery and looked in "mount". System is still unchecked. Do I need to put the check mark back by system? (recheck it?) since it was checked in the first place. I've never messed with mount/unmount before. ?to you and your work.

Which Audiophile profile should we use on ViperAtmos 4.6 Sony Beats Edition? 2 or 3?

Yes seeing as 4.6 no longer uses the last V4A apk I thought we should use Audiophile 2.

As far as I know 3.0 includes the AnalogX setting which came with 2.4.0.1. I haven't check the settings in V4A but the 3.0 profile might be synced to this new feature. Correct me if I'm wrong of course.
[Android Software Development] Sander9847:
This is exactly what I thought aswell.
[Android Software Development] dingermtb:
4.6 is just totally amazing. I think you made a great decision going back to the old apk. It sounds more beefy and louder. The newer apk almost has it any sound and that the turn my volume up louder to hear. Again great and phenomenal job as always... Build it and they will come

[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
No worries, TWRP will always revert back to its default mounts during boot. My devices have always booted into TWRP with System unmounted so I assumed that was the norm. It has no bearing in any case except for flashing in TWRP. If a zip toggles System instead of mounting then flashing with System mounted would begin by toggling/unmounting System before writing files. My zips don't do this, its just a habit I formed long ago.

All profiles will work just fine, you'll just not have AnalogX even though the 3.0 profile attempts to set it. :good:

No worries, all profiles are fully compatible. :good:

You make a great point! That will make the list slightly less overwhelming when seeing it for the first time lol! :good:

Indeed, thank you! :good:

Awesome to hear and thanks for the report! :good:

All profiles will work on all apk's without issue. :good:

Nope, all is good! :good:

Thank you for the kind words and I absolutely agree with 4.6 being better because of the previous apk and its Super Quality driver. I always look forward to your insight and your latest revelation about your upcoming month of March is simply incredible! Always sending good vibes your way brother! Best of luck! :highfive:

There are 2 walkman ports. First is from ibanez. Very old. Second is from androidexpert. I never make it work, I use LG G2.

Walkman sound is also great if it works. Can you work on a little bit on Sony walkman too?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
I tried in the past but so many issues and compatibilities arise. No sound through voice calls is a very common issue. Honestly, it just isn't worth the trouble, at the same time, my main focus with all of this is achieving maximum compatibility. The Sony™ files I use from jancsezzs x5 port add some clarity and a little punch but still promote the compatibility I demand.

There might be others who prefer the original one.

[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Yep, and I'd also recommend renaming the material apk as the original so the backup script will still work. :good:

It's best to just copy the material apk in the v4a folder, rename the material apk, delete the original apk, set permissions to 0644 for the new apk, and reboot.

I just need to know if it's going over the new apk or the previous apk. :good:
[Android Software Development] NickosD:
Well it's also easier to replace it yourself in the mod so you don't have do it every time you flash a rom ?

It really is easier to just extract to your specific location. I tried incorporating Audiophile™ into the ViPER installation with bad results as the working v4a directories vary so much. Plus, once your files are in place the only way they would be gone is if Internal Storage is wiped. :good:

this may be a little off topic but it's a big point of confusion for me: what file managers DO zip up folders for properly flashing in twrp? any time I've tried to flash any old zip I've created has failed for one reason or another. i always assumed they had to be signed or something like that, include a special file so that the files all end up in the right place. this is literally just me making assumptions based on context clues but if there's a file manager that is able to just zip stuff up that i can flash, I'd love that
