It has been reported by some users that the processing was on all the time. But only very rarely. But none of them had issues with battery drainage...

Use better battery stats to check if there is actually an issue. Coming back to processing all the time, it is not normal.. May be you have to do a fresh install..
[Android Software Development] gimpy1:
I have also noticed and wondered about the processing being on all the time. I used to use VP4A all the time until I got the turbo and it was not rooted. I've been without root/VP4A for well over a year now until just got the phone rooted. I'm slowly remembering things long forgotten about root ?. Also I've noticed that changing some of the profiles in convolver seems to not make any changes in the sound from one to the other in "some" instances, but not in others?

Is that so, our am I just not "hearing" the changes (very possible ?)?

From the OP:
[Android Software Development] gimpy1:
Thx, sorry I missed that. Don't know how (read it, but just didn't connect, I guess) (old age ☺). I read and reread the first few posts/OP a few times always before I do anything. Like I said, just missed it. I will check it when I get home from work.

Thx
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
No worries at all. I'm not an OP you might be used to and there will never be a pop quiz as I will never expect the OP to be memorized. I guess you could say patience comes from old age as well (34)! ;)
[Android Software Development] gimpy1:
Well, you would be my youngest ?

Maxx audio version would be cool ! Like Viper|Maxx, Atmos|Maxx, or Viper|Atmos|Maxx (lol to much IMO) but you get what I mean.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Well, we are certainly privileged to be graced with your presence, life experience, and knowledge. :good:

You can bet once it's ported to Marshmallow you certainly will. I was able to find the cause for Project Desire and THS Project ReHeaR BRA1 Marshmallow incompatibility but I could not get the MaxxAudio r1 to work on Marshmallow after many attempts. I want to be sure I address all issues reported here first and may try again when there's not much to do.

I'm actually shocked at the small number of issues so far on this thread and I have to credit the entire userbase at my Nexus 6 thread for being able to give you guys a 99% trouble-free ViPER|Audio™ experience. I was preparing for a marathon of troubleshooting and support bringing this thread to this section with the increased visibility and device variation. The guys over at the Nexus 6 thread simply could not have done a better job and the reason this is successful is only because of the time and persistence they gave for me. I cannot thank them enough.
[Android Software Development] gimpy1:
:Laughingly: don't know about that . Just an old man with too much time on his hands while the wife is away visiting her parents. And who likes to mess with his phone and listen to some good music every once in a while.

I just happened upon this thread after spending about 3 or 4 hours trying to load and get VP4A installed and working using zhuhang's old thread without success. Your information made it easy.

Thx, for your work.

Not working on my Galaxy Tab S2 running Android 5.1.1. Viper4Android installs and works just fine, but the Dolby Atmos app crashes whenever I try to open it. Any idea what the problem might be?

Gah. Busybox basically got removed from the Cyan night lies... so no luck activating the v4a driver.

Sorry, I was thinking you had an issue with the included driver. The version number is confusing, I know. It's just to be in line with my packages so that it is hopefully known that it is the same driver included in my packages. Everything 5.0 is going to be the latest ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1 app and/or driver.
[Android Software Development] metty2k13:
thanks

oh ok thanks for all your help i finaly got viper 2.4.0.1 installed by deleting my previous one from priv-app and then extracting yours from the .rar and installing just the .apk i know i wont have all other effects you have provided etc but i just wanted to make sure viper was on latest at least :D thanks man
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
For sure man, I wish I was more knowledgeable to get you where you want to be. Have you tried pulling binary-update from a working rom or mod zip and placing it over the one in the ViPER zip? You'll need to make sure the one you're placing over is not connected to a #dummy updater-script in that working rom or mod zip.

Any idea why the viper app isn't showing up after I flash viperatmos 5.0? Dolby shows up and is working but after a fresh install of benzorom the viper app isn't showing up. It worked fine on my other ROMs I tried.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
I don't know, but I've experienced this as well. Others reported flashing another version fixes it but I'm thinking that flashing the same thing again would fix it as well as the install scripts are nearly identical.

You can also move /system/priv-app/ViPER4AndroidFX-2.4.0.1 to /sdcard/Download, reboot, move /sdcard/Download/ViPER4AndroidFX-2.4.0.1 back to /system/priv-app, set folder/apk permissions to 0755/0644, and reboot.
[Android Software Development] Nickchapstick:
I think I figured it out. Benzorom has viper built in but its in the "benzo extras" tab in settings. Its 2.3.4.0 though. Is there a way I can uninstall that one and get yours working? I tried flashing your file and all it does is bring up the same one built into the rom.

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------

Also I tried to download the app off the internet to update to 2.4.0.1 and it won't update the one built into the ROM.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
The built-in v4a is almost always named just ViPER4Android. Look in /system/app and /system/priv-app for any folder or apk not named ViPER4AndroidFX-2.4.0.1 and delete.

I flashed ViperAtmos 4.21 Beats Huawei Edition and it worked perfectly. After flashing ViperAtmos 4.52 Sony Beats Edition the app disappeared. I then reflashed back to 4.21 and the app reappeared. Any ideas why this happened?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
It's hit or miss sometimes with v4a, I bet if you flashed 5.0 after it not appearing that you would see it appear again.
[Android Software Development] nelvina2:
That worked! Thank You. With so many music players available to choose from what are your thoughts as to what to look for.
[Android Software Development] Nickchapstick:

Hey, I haven't been able to install any of these zips, but I succeeded installing v4a version 2.2.1.1 directly from an apk I found somewhere on the internet. Is my phone just obsolete for newer versions (Xperia C2305, 4.2.2 custom rom. SuperSU) and am I losing much with this version?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Which ViPER package would you like?
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
Any that you think it will work on my device
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Being on 4.2.2 means Dolby Atmos™ is not a possibility. Dolby Digital Plus™ might be a possibility but let's try this version first. :good:
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
Should I flash it over this one I have or delete it first? :)
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Try just flashing first and only wipe System and dirty flash your rom if the first attempt fails.
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
I flashed it, it shows up in priv-app, but it doesn't show up in app drawer, and when I install it from apk it prompts for drivers every time. Dirty flash?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Try flashing again. I don't know why but v4a seems to not show up until a second flash. Check your /system partition to ensure you have 50mb+ of free space.
[Android Software Development] Rix70:
wow, very nice thread!

Unfortunately I see that now but few hours ago I installed v4a in the same method of m7 but it fail ?

The app ask driver installation persistence...

[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Thanks! Have you tried one of my packages?
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
I have 400+mb free on /system, flashed it a few times, but still doesn't show up, says in recovery that the installation was successful. Could it be conflicting with the old Viper or any other app?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Precisely. I was hoping my installer would delete your existing v4a install but it is obviously not named appropriately. Delete every single ViPER file and folder from the following two locations:

/system/app

/system/priv-app
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
Still the same thing, isn't showing up. Should I put the .apk manually in system/app or try another package?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Very strange. Is the apk not sitting in /system/priv-app with 0644 permissions? You can certainly try moving it to /system/app and rebooting.

You might need to wipe System in TWRP and dirty flash your rom if none of that helps.
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
Yes, it's there with 0644 permissions, moved it to system/app, it showed up, but still prompting for drivers. I'll try dirty flashing the rom later and let you know what happened
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Audio processing might not be going through either audio_effects.conf file at all. That seems to be a recurring issue on certain devices.

A request brother - Is it possible for you to enable 280 or 320 ppi display support for the DDP+ app ?

Everyother app on my phone supports 280 except for ddp+
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Are you sure it's a dpi issue?
[Android Software Development] ProudRed:
What else could be ? Only 1 app having an issue here.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
You'd be surprised actually. The two different Dolby apps are ported apps so there's never a guarantee it will work on other devices from which they are pulled.

Have you tried Dolby Atmos™?
[Android Software Development] Rix70:
I try now.. But I need uninstall before the old file? I have to remove the apk manually?

Are those viperaudio neon driver 5.0 better then super Quality 3.0 driver? I don't use the last viper4android can i still install it over super Quality 3.0 or are those driver for the last viper4android update?

Gesendet von meinem E6853 mit Tapatalk
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Please do. :good:

5.0 driver is for ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1

3.0 is the Super Quality driver for all previous versions.

All ViPER packages include either already, depending on the v4a apk in the package.

The driver packages are only for users that have a v4a installation outside of this thread in case they don't want a ViPER|Audio™ package.
[Android Software Development] RetroPetrol:
It's not working, I'm giving up. It's interesting that all versions up to 2.3.2.2 work flawlesly on my device, and 2.3.2.6 and up don't, i.e. from when they changed the icon to purple, the blue ones work. Thank you for all your help, i'm satisfied with this version completely. :)

Maybe an stupid question but will USB Audio player work with headphones or only with OTG cable?

Can you post screenshot.

Thanks.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
You know what? I think I remember seeing that the latest ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1 even requires 5.0 at this point.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Fantastic! Thanks for letting me know! :good:

Not a stupid question at all. In fact, for that player to play through Android and not USB only, it is required to open USB Audio Player Pro's settings and check the top box to Play Through Android. :good:

It seems this zip doesn't work on Nexus 9 MM 6.0.1.

You can be my first tester by following these steps:

Download desired ViPER 5.1 package

Download the ViPER4Android 2.4.0.1 x86 Driver

Boot to recovery

Install > ViPER 5.1 package

Install > x86 Driver

Reboot

I'd love to know your results!

Can you clarify a bit more on what you are experiencing after flashing?

If you save a new profile named moby90 are you then able to load it through v4a?

installing XHifi along with FX?

Hi there, ive been on this site for a very long time and sadly this is my first post. Normally, with enough searching, testing on my own from information provided here I haven't needed to post really. I have yet to find any, or at least very little...information on installing Xhifi on marshmallow along with FX as i like to run both concurrent usually and dolby as well. I have the HTC one A9 Sprint Variant and have been able to flash the provided zip from here with FX and Atmos but cant get Xhifi to stop asking for the driver to be installed whatsoever. Can anyone be so kind as to illuminate what I seem to be unable to do and/or find?

Also, if someone skilled on here could make Xhifi material design updated like FX would be amazing. I am still learning a lot myself so I don't know much about how otherwise i would gladly take it on ^_^. Perhaps someone already has and i havent found it as well?

Lastly, has anyone else have the issue of com.android.phone has stopped after flashing any sound mod like RHR, Xtreme, etc? I try clearing data, cache of both phone apps this is said to be attached to, force stop them and reboot, but never works like before....always have to restore system afterwards. I have used all of the pop sound mods and have not had this issue pop up a lot but every so often it does. The A9 is a complete pain to do any of this really compared to my previous handsets =/. Sorry for the triple question all in one but these have been bugging me forever. Thanks in advance ^_^(P.S i am not on all the time but will try to respond asap)

my .IRS files are not showing in Impulse Responce tab..no idea why ?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Sure man, there are a couple of zips attached below.

As for your phone issue, the first thing I would experiment with is deleting or uncommenting every build.prop entry from those mods.

For sure man, just prepared one for you. :good:

Dolby Digital Plus™ requires a Permissive Selinux environment.

Disable any stock audio effects:

Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System

In PowerAmp:

Menu > Settings > Audio > Advanced Tweaks

Uncheck the top two boxes pertaining to Volume Control

Check MusicFX

SuperSU is required for processing in Enforcing Selinux. You might try switching to Permissive or install SuperSU.

this is the issue, also occurs if i save my own profile. only the first time i gave memory permission to the app it worked. i think it's something related to the permission management in marshmallow.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
I don't know man, that error is so vague and common at times. You might try a previous version of TWRP or something.

So odd, this all started with the apk change but I haven't experienced it on my own. But I've been using it baked into a rootless rom so system is wiped every time it's installed. You might try wiping System and dirty flashing your rom and trying again.

Welp...no dice on installing Xhifi still =/. Has persistant driver install still and Ive cleared out space on internal memory, installed it as user and system, im on permissive as well. This was the original problem on the A9 with FX till you posted on here.....could it be simple to solve by adding the Xhifi to one of the zip combos from the OP and flash it exactly like FX does that way?
