dolby atmos and viper

hey thanks for providing a way to get viper4android onto marshmallow i did already have it loaded and working wich involved overriding the audio_policy.conf file with a new one and setting the octal to 0644 rw-r-r i think it put it to same as the original and renamed it so if this doesnt work for some which is very unlikely try that cant wait til you get dolby atmos working for us much appreciated keep up the good work such an amazing phone :D
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
I will gonna work a bit more on the script guys in order to be launched also from a Terminal window and I will make the installation much more easier to simplify it for the new users

Don't know it seems that you're the only one to experience this
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] catoledow:
OK, thanks. Maybe what I needed was an extra reboot, not 100% sure though.

Now I tried playing with two differente players:

Deezer -> in Viper4Android > Driver Status shows Processing: YES

PowerAMP -> shows Processing: NO

Any idea why I can't get PowerAMP to be detected by Viper?

Thanks and great work!
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Because PowerAmp got his own equalizer and effects that's why
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Suhas_JS:
Clean flashed the ROM and flashed ViPER. Followed all the other procedures and I'm good to go. ??

Hi Nilac,

could you help me?

Installed viper and driver, when trying to work with Terminal and digit "mount -o rw,remount /system" I get ACCESS DENIED error.

The phone is rooted (of course).

Thanks a lot.

Oh yeah sorry I forgot to add a command... Before doing everything you should write: su

After updating to V. 4.2, I am still having this issue. .IRS files are located in /storage/emulated/legacy/Viper4Android/kernel/, and yet the app will not recognize the files. Anyone else having this issue?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] A_Bunny:
No it is working fine for me on the latest version (4.2) on Resurrection Remix Marshmallow.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mrbubs3:
Hmmm. Can you post a snapshot of your IRS files within a file manager app? I'm trying to troubleshoot.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] 11053755:
Stupid question, but will this work with CM13 custom rom? And can TWRP install this?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Yes of course is compatible with CM 13 and yeah you can flash it through recovery
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] A_Bunny:
Sure thing they are attached below.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mrbubs3:
Hmmm. I have the same thing, except that the files are not being recognized. My File Manager is noting internal memory as Storage\Emulated\0\.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] A_Bunny:
Try this rename the viper4android folder to ViPER4Android (notice the caps) and kernel to Kernel (capital K)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Try to to see again your screenshots you may solve your problem by yourself

No its not that
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mrbubs3:
Storage/emualted/legacy/Viper4Android/Kernel is the reflected directory for /emulated/o/Viper4Android/Kernel. I can't change the former except from within the latter.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] 11053755:
Just installed it... Works flawlessly on Zenfone 2 Deluxe Z00A | CM13-UNOFFICIAL Build 20160120
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mrbubs3:
I deleted the Viper4Android folder in my internal memory to just clean everything up. When using Viper to repopulate the folder structure, the /Kernel/kernel subdirectory continues on into infinity. Is there a bug in the apk?
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mrbubs3:
Updated to latest build of RRMM, which seems to have fixed file permissions. Added IRS files to the emulated folder for V4A, and the app is reading them. Issue resolved.

Hey guys :)

- ViperFX is updated to the 4.3 version :good:

- Included Instructions in the OP about how to add custom profiles and IRS files to Viper

- In the downloads section i included the IRS files so you don't have to search for them

- I put also a my self made profile so you can tell up your opinions about it ;)

If you also got a custom made profile share it here! I will look forward to see it and also to add it in the downloads section for the others to download it :)
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] pakalu:
Can you tell me how did you exactly do it? I can't seem to get it work. :confused:
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Check the OP about how to install the IRS files
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Guys !

I made up some tests and i can confirm now that ViPER should work fine also on Stock ROM :)

I will provide a new flashable zip tomorrow morning ;)

[MENTION=4968383]nilac[/MENTION] Can you please help me in finding Audiowizard 2.0 apk+libs in Zenfone Zoom firmware. Because i want it to use in Zenfone 2 .

Still hope from you .
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Sorry man but I don't have time as I said. .. but [MENTION=4648515]AL_IRAQI[/MENTION] has made some tests on stock ROM and he told me that it wasn't working
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] mrbubs3:
Sure.

1) Make sure that you are running the latest version of your custom CM13-based Rom (I'm using the 1/23 build for Resurrection Remix Marshmallow).

2) Flash the Viper Mod in your recovery (I'm using TWRP)

3) After installing, run the V4A apk, and install the necessary drivers. Reboot upon prompt.

4) After reboot, click on the Impulse Response option, and note its location. For my build, it lists the location at /Storage/emulated/legacy/Viper4Android/Kerne/. Use a file explorer with root permissions (I use Root Explorer). Navigate to your internal storage location, and copy your IRS files to the correct location.

5) Go back to V4A, select Impulse Response. Your IRS files should be present.

My issue was that the file location was read-only, as the previous build seemed to have set up the emulated/legacy location as a reflection of /storage/emulated/o or /storage/self/primary. The newest build had the correct rights to the /emulated/legacy/Viper4Android subfolder, so that is what fixed my issue.

Hope that helps!!

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] NoobNeutralizer:
Thank you...

This is working and sounding great on SuperZen...
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] 24imelqui:
To install IRS files on Stock ROM or based ROMs you must follow this path: sdcard/ViPER4Android/Kernel

So to install them unzip the folder and push them to the mentioned path

To use them, open Viper and set the UI settings to Moderate or Expert and afterwards Enable the Convolver and select the preferred one

I didn't do this steps but Viper is working on ZF2. Where is the zip to be unzipped?

Thank you again for this.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] Calin:
Follow the BasketBuild link, you will find the zip containing the IRS files :)

[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ephexxis:
sorry mate rl happened. putting it together right now and a bonus

---------- Post added at 01:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 AM ----------

actually one of the reasons intels x86 SoCs were inherently better was because x86 has instruction sets and the tools necessary to utilize arm and arm neon optimized components, without requiring direct ports. ever notice your rom reporting x86, armeabi-v7a, and armeabi? that's cause the soc has the intel equivalent and arguably superior instruction sets necessary to do what neon and most other core arm components do short of arm64, they're just not written entirely with the mobile platform in mind, as they've been around for years and years and used in computers for a long time.

this is why its so unfortunate they waited for so long to get into SoCs, and during a time when they haven't been doing particularly well in general.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] N!ghty:
Just wondering what exactly the difference is compared to the official ViPER4Android version? - Because the official version (and also MK Mod) already works perfectly fine on the ZenFone 2...

How to uninstall ViPER ? It's draining my battery and my phone is becoming warm.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] xdauser013:
First uninstall viper driver from the app menu then uninstall the apk from your system, or flash your current rom again.
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] ephexxis:
x86 does not directly use neon simd instructions. however, the architecture has had adequate alternatives to do the same types of math and stuff that neon allows arm chips to do since like the 90s.

when using the proper driver, such as the one for 2.3.1 that is included in that package i uploaded for you barbarians, viper will sound as good if not better than the super quality arm driver would on arm devices, and not have as much additional battery drain associated with utilizing convolution which, if you suck at managing your battery life for whatever reason, you should be disabling when not listening to music anyways
