Apk update won't install

OK, here is a greenhorn question- problem, I checked and downloaded the update apk for the viper4android fx, it's the viper4android v2 version 2.4.0.1, now how do I get it to install? My phone is rooted with su and bisybox installed and also have an apk installer
[Nexus 6 Android Development] guitardedhero:
ViPER4Android v2 apk's are usually for OS 2.3 and below. You want v4 of that apk. It is usually recommended to uninstall the driver through v4's menu before updating the app. This is likely important in this instance as an entirely different driver is used for the current v4a apk which is the sole reason it is not used in many of my audio projects. The new driver is very reserved, with low output and low dynamics, with no noticible power conservation noticed either.

Genesis™ 0.9.4
Sony™ Album 7.7.A.0.10
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
OK, 1, I'm an ubernoob at Audio mods. Never could quite figure out V4A but been following this thread a bit and I'm curious. There's a lot here I don't know at all.

For example, I only listen through the speakers, not headsets, etc, so that's where I want the best sound, obviously. Previously, V4A didn't seem to do anything for that when I tried.

Reading the OP, there's a lot of different addons, mods, etc, how does a nab like me know what's what?

Definitely gonna backup/update and try this out today but want to know what I'm doing, in layman's terms
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mervingio:
No Atmos right????
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Well since you listen through the speakers the effect of V4A is dismal... but I'll give you a quick run through of the settings in V4A. Also set to UI setting expert.

The Equalizer can tame/buff different aspects of the sound. Like bass boost(the thump thump) or treble boost(more like voice -- I think?)

The convovler can make tons of effects based on the impulse response selected

The dynamic bass the higher the percent the more powerful the bass

The bass boost section

Type of bass you have three options, natural, pure and subwoofer. Natural seems to be the best for regular listening, pure seems to be weaker, subwoofer is something else almost like lower bass(correct if I wrong)

Frequency is how powerful the bass is, tbh I like 100

The amount in db the higher the more powerful

Clarity - idk what this does at 6.0db it seems to work tho

The rest I'd talk to guitardhero about... Hope this helps. One last thing is use speaker optimization and extra loud - effect strength extreme on the speaker for louder, clearer sound.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Cool cool. I'm JUST starting the process, updating to MOB30I, rooting, etc, then I'll flash the ROM and see how it goes. Do I want any of the addons in the OP?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Well idk what you want but all you really need is ARISE.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Which is my next question, what IS Arise?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Phrodini:
ARISE is an audio enhance project by guitardedhero and Ben. The actual name of the audio mod is Genesis or something. It includes viper4android and other sound mods that greatly enhances the sound on your phone drastically. It's like having weak stock speakers in your car and then you finally upgraded, installed a system and bam, music sounds so good you don't want to get out of the car. The sound is great, it even makes cheap headphones sound great.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
That's awesome. Booting to recovery to flash it now :)

---------- Post added at 07:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

Whoa! This is awesome. 2 devices I listen on are the Polk Boom Swimmer and the iHip Megajam via Bluetooth and they both sound incredible
[Nexus 6 Android Development] guitardedhero:
BQ M5 Dolby Atmos is used on this build. No GUI yet.

That's awesome! I'm glad you gave it a try and are happy with the result! :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
I could never get V4A to work before. Like there was zero change in audio with it. I'm not huge fan of stock roms, but I listen to a LOT of music and the trade off is worth it. Plus it's the first ROM Android Pay works on out of the box for me. (Which I don't use, but still....)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Its not rooted is why and doesn't modify many system files (I think) I don't think I'd listen to music near as much if I hadn't found guitarded's thread. arise just makes me not want to take the headphones off :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Yeah, I rooted with Su2.71 - al is good, except Quick Reboot for some reason thinks I'm not rooted
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
I have a fix ;)

Navigate to /su/bin in a root explorer

Copy the su file to /system/bin

Older root apps will then work, its because the app hardcoded the location of the su file and its not there so it figures your not rooted.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fast69mopar:
Here is a weird one. I flashed the new MOB30I ARISE Sound System Edition 1.1 last night. I booted the new ROM, performed the Setup Wizard and then booted to recovery and flashed B14CKB1RD 3.10.40. After getting everything setup I listened to a little music from Pandora to setup V4A since I haven't used it since the days of my Galaxy S3. After I finished setting it up and the music sounded like I wanted it, I went to bed. Woke up this morning and turned on my Nexus and I can't find the V4A app. Where did it go? I didn't disable the app. I have Track ID, Music and Album but I'm missing the V4A app. I have no idea what happened to it or where it went. Can anyone provide any insight before I flash the ROM all over again?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Phrodini:
So far so good on the newest update?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Thanks Ratchet, I'll give that a shot. It won't affect Android Pay?

There's one thing this ROM needs and I'm surprised no one mentioned it; Exchange Services. It's a must if you use Exchange for email and it's only available on apkmirror, not the Play store.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Well you said you didn't use it :silly:

It shouldn't, but idk, try and see
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Funny thing is, I'll probably never use it lol, but it's cool that it works.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] deviltree:
I flashed supersu and installed xposed. But, seems, viper4andorid is not enhancing the audio at all. Is there a way to verify and correct it?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Play music, open V4A, tap three dots(make sure music is still playing), tap driver status then look for Processing: No/Yes.

Yes means good

No means it ain't workin'

If it isn't working try a permissive kernel.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lazer:
I am on the build just before ARISE. Can I dirty flash arise build or do I need a clean install?

Thanks!

notification sounds

Awesome ROM! Incredible sound!!! I just have a small problem, my notification sounds are not coming through, the music volume lowers briefly bit no notification sound comes through, I get them when not listening to music ., and suggestions?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
I'm not getting most notifications, at all. But that happened on Cataclysm and Pure Nexus, too, where no Yahoo Mail, etc would notify for a few weeks, then suddenly, they would start working. Gmail and texts are about the only ones I get.

Also, I think this got buried on the last page but next build, please include Exchange Services. It's needed for Exchange Mail and not available on the Play Store (but it is on Apk.Mirror

---------- Post added at 07:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:56 PM ----------

Hey wait, what file am I supposed to copy?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
First screenshot copy that

Second screenshot paste there

Edit for notifications turn doze off for those apps

Battery->three dots->optmization->find apps and turn off
[Nexus 6 Android Development] guitardedhero:
Sorry, I've been so busy on the audio side. Got an update coming soon as much advancement in audio quality has been achieved and I will absolutely add exchangeservices as well. I never have an issue with notifications but I'll make an adjustment in audio_effects.conf that will likely help for sure.

If you don't mind, I would like a direct link to the exchangeservices apk you are describing as I never use it or even knew it was missing and obviously want the proper apk to include in /system.

I appreciate you guys letting me know what you're missing instead of settling for what's provided! :good:

---------- Post added at 05:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:16 AM ----------

That's odd, because I didn't have it on mine, nor an option in Gmail to setup Exchange
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fast69mopar:
[MENTION=3615140]HipKat[/MENTION], I don't use Exchange Services but I remembered disabling it. I have all the app that came with the ROM and the Z5 add-on. I have not added any other mail systems. Is there any one else that has Exchange Services in there apps? I can't be the only one with it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
I'll unzip the ROM and see if it's in there, but you'd think it would have installed and if not, why would that be the only thing because the ROM is perfect otherwise and even so, once I installed it off apkmirror, it's working fine

What does Z5 addon give you that's not baked into the ROM? A lot of it I See looks like it's included in the ROM itself. I'm really new to playing with Audio mods, so go easy on me lol

I like the Sony Launcher alot. It gives you the ability to arrange your app drawer several different ways. I like to do a custom app drawer and arrange my apps however I like. The UI sounds and widgets are nice too. Give it a test run. You very well may enjoy it like I do.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
V4W not seeming to work. Driver Status shows Processing: No and MusicFX is not showing in Settings/Apps now (and yeah, I selected show System)

Also Dolby Atmos is FC'ing
[Nexus 6 Android Development] highdro:
I haven't tried the zip in a while but did you follow these steps from the first post?

If on Marshmallow, it is imperative that the user does the following:

- Settings > Apps > Gear Icon > App Permissions

- Go through each permissions category, tap Menu to select Show System, and enable all requested permissions for each Sony™ app, ViPER4Android, and Dolby Atmos™

Thank you very much guitardedhero, amazing rom, I really hope you'll do an N release as soon as the final drop.s
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fast69mopar:
Hey [MENTION=288026]laser[/MENTION], mine does the same thing on every one. Bluetooth, Headset and Phone Speaker. The volume always starts off very low and I have to adjust from there. I don't know if it's a bug or a problem. I just live with it. [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION], is Via supposed to lower the volume when you first enable V4A?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
When does it change, randomly while listening to music? Mine lowers after I close and reopen my BT and connect to one of my devices, just have to turn it up and it stays there
[Nexus 6 Android Development] guitardedhero:
The volume behavior is likely a hardware protection feature. I hope I'm understanding you guys properly as describing behavior in between audio sessions.

Android N has proven to be impossible with my normal method. It just won't boot unless I create a .dat image installation. I don't have or use a computer so I'm going to try to access one for a period of time. However, this also eliminates the dead end faced when major sound system updates require a dirty rom flash. Once stabilized and infrequently updated, it will be just like normal. Tupac4u's Android N is running amazingly well with ARISE™ Sound Systems™ 0.6 Android N, so I recommend that combination instead. That way, dirty rom flashes will be possible when updating the sound system if necessary. :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mervingio:
Can make one Atmos version too?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Phrodini:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] clintono316:
So do I need to download and install a.r.i.s.e. project separately or is it in the rom... is there anything I need to do to setup a.r.i.s.e... Also is the Dolby and viper to be used together or use one or the other to enhance sound.

I have installed the the ROM and rooted it (clean install coming from different ROM) and installed the xperia5 mod and that is all...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Phrodini:
They are in the Rom. Once installed you can go open viper4android app, tap on three dot on upper right to open menu, tap load profile, and choose What's in there, I think 4 is included. While in the menu you can also tap UI Setting and choose expert which will open up all options for the mod.

Choose your player of choice,and start playing music. Your eardrums will be born again
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ZionFreak:
I've been using this for awhile and sound is great on headphones but on a Bluetooth speaker not so good. Anyone else notice that Viper degrades quality on a bluetooth speaker?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Just the opposite. On both of mine it sounds really good. Not like headphones, of course, but WAY better than stock Audio.

My Settings for BT (which I can still tweak more):

Master Power enable

Playback Gain Control enable

Strength Extreme

Max Gain 10

Is there anyone here who has the term

"Over-counted" listed as an app that is using their battery? I have [ROM][NoRoot] MOB30I ARISE Sound Systems Edition 1.1 installed all from a clean flash and full wipe including internal storage. This is the 3rd time I have flashed this ROM. The first two flashes I did not use a custom kernel. This flash I have installed B14CKB1RD V1.8.2 (3.10.40) and SuperSu 2.71 Beta. Each time I have "Over-counted" listed as my highest battery draining app. After each flash "Over-counted" has used 45-49%of my battery during each battery cycle. This is the only ROM that "Over-counted" shows up. Can anyone provide any insight? My SoT during my last battery cycle is in one of my screenshots.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NOSTALGIA:
its from an app.. just cant remember what app was that..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fast69mopar:
Every app that is installed now with this ROM is exactly the same as any other ROM I use. I flash around quite often. This ROM is the only one that Over-counted shows up. Am I the only one that has this?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ZionFreak:
It's part of M. I had it on stock M as well. You can disable it with something with userdebug but it won't make a difference on your battery life. I leave it alone. I believe it has to do with uninstalled apps. Your still getting almost 5 hrs SOT which shows your battery life is what it's supposed to be. This pretty much answers what it is: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/over-counted-battery-stats.439470/
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fast69mopar:
Thanks for the tip and the link to that other forum. I performed and edit of my build prop and changed "ro.build.type" from "userdebug" to "user". I then rebooted my device and checked my battery stats and "Over-counted" was instantly removed as my highest draining battery app. It was completely gone from the list. I wanted to see the difference between this ROM and another ROM that I use so I restored a nandroid backup from my other ROM and took a look at the build prop and I found it to have the same build prop entry for "ro.build.type". Both ROM's in stock form contain the same entry but this ROM is the one that displays Over-counted in my battery stats. I'd like to find out why one displays Over-counted and the other does not so I'll be doing some research on the subject because I'm interested in it now. Thanks for your help ZionFreak and anyone else that helped.
