This may help - or may be completely redundant /unwanted...

On my HTC One M9, TMoUS, ICE ROM, I now have V4A working with Bluetooth devices on a fresh reboot. Once either the player app (music, podcast, whathaveyou) stops playing (stopped, force closed, or playlist finished), or the Bluetooth device disconnects, the V4A driver stops processing and does not resume. With wired devices (e.g. headphones or external speaker) or with the built-in speakers, V4A will continue to process audio across multiple stop /restart and change-of-player sequences.

As noted, rebooting the M9 allows V4A to process again until one of the above events occurs.

I spent some time last night flashing and reflashing (full clean every time) and at least for my device/ROM combination, with either SuperSU or Magisk, and any of the popular BusyBox versions (StEricson, JRummy, Meefik, etc.), the behavior is the same. The only difference is that with Magisk, both the ARISE and the Viper4Android modules have to be installed.

Using the Modular installer, I installed only the core and V4A 2.5.0.5 driver + profiles, along with fixing SDCard permissions. Removing or leaving the deep_buffer did not make a difference on my system.

I captured a full log file during a sequence of disconnecting and reconnecting a Bluetooth audio device, where the V4A driver was working prior to disconnect, but did not re-start processing on reconnect.

Zip file containing log output, device info and my customize file is attached for any to review, comment on, throw brickbats, etc. If this helps the Devs figure out the weirdness in Bluetooth, all the better...
[Android Software Development] rohit3192:
I think this is well known issue and I faced same.

But with meefik busybox plus arise/magisk 2.3 compatibility, it is less annoying.

Viper can be restarted (exit from menu and reopen) but Dolby requires reboot.
[Android Software Development] anunaym14:
Its OK if I don't need that but just to kill curiosity wanted to know what it is basically for..

Do I need to do all these things for Aroma installer also?
[Android Software Development] JaylanPHNX:
No, you don't need it for aroma. The customize prop tells the non-AROMA what to do just like selecting things on screen does in AROMA.
[Android Software Development] 00bofh:
Exit /restart didn't and still doesn't work for my device (Meefik or any of the others), and I quite understand that the problem has been well described.

What I haven't seen yet though, is log captures that the Devs can use to debug /diagnose, so I went through the description so that my system state was known and would add context to the logs.

My goal is to try and help them reduce "annoyance" in the next release or so, though if log review leads to an "ah-hah!" moment and a revised install guide, etc., I won't object.

If your Recovery is having issues flashing Aroma installer, you either need to update your recovery to a version than can execute the Aroma Installation or flash the non-Aroma version of SwanSong-3.31.

To install the non-Aroma build once downloaded examine the contents of the getting_started folder within the SwanSong_3.3.1_zip, extract and place the arise_customize.prop at the root of your Internal Storage, then using a text editor read the contents of both .prop files in getting_started, really it's not that hard.

Just take your time reading the contents of the arise_cutomize.prop and follow the directions within on how to edit the .prop file before flashing SwanSong_3.31_zip.

What all options to select before flashing? I selected nothing and then the screen went blank which is what happened with TWRP..
[Android Software Development] BerkeKan:
Sir, are you aware of this issue too?

I tried with the new AROMA update but the result is the same. Another issue is that even if i clean the cache Dolby atmos app keeps crashing.
[Android Software Development] SkaboXD:
I want to confirm that Dirac crashes on my phone too. I use Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo, CM 12.1. Other modules works perfect.Sound quality is improved a lot over ARISE 2.94, good work ARISE team!

Yes, we made Android O effects backwards compatible to previous versions of Android.

I suggest you join our live support chat on Telegram (https://telegram.me/joinchat/BWs_H0EPE8AgVq9fDmORMQ)

As you're not getting a solution here and starting to get rude with non-Team members here on XDA, I say you should definitely join us on Telegram Support

I, and we as a Team, have repeatedly said....just because you CAN install something and run it doesn't always mean you SHOULD. For instance trying to use both Dolby add-ons at the same time or either Dolby with AM3D at the same time. We provide so many options for people to be able to choose. This is MUCH different than us telling people that they should install and use everything. This is most certainly not the case.

We provided our setups in this build to give you guys sort of a template. Obviously, these are just guidelines. Your ears will always tell you what's best for you, but hopefully they're good starting points for some.

Yes, we're aware. As posted with the last message from our OP account, you should NOT being using AROMA right now. Scripts are broken in there and giving incomplete/bad installs. Temporarily, only use the Modular installer.

what do i need to select when the QCOM audio effect solution is asked during installation? im having a nexus 6p, so i guess huawei?
[Android Software Development] jawz101:
Finally got v4a working though it's choppy. Some of that may be due to my phone's dual speakers and DAC junk.

Used modular instead of aroma, stericson's busybox instead of relying on LineageOS' Toy box, and SuperSu instead of LineageOS' su package.

Finally the driver status screen in Viper4Android said everything checked out.

Thanks all. The choppy sound is likely the Axon 7. They did some closed source stuff with their own sound system which probably can't be tinkered with much.

I used the aroma version of 3.31 and flashed viper 2.5.0.5 ,DolbyD+ and Ice sound, everything's working well.

Now I wanted to change something in my setup and obviously I found one of the bugs in aroma you were talking about, aroma doesn't install anything running the second time and ends with a error message which I don't remember exactly (can check that out if it's important).

Just one question;Does something speak against using the modular installer instead to change my setup?
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Using modular installer is fine. If you want to switch to it then make sure you dirty or clean flash your rom. Is that your question? It is a little unclear to me

You do for the module. However you can always just extract the module, see what it does, and make the modifications​ yourself (hint: it's changing 1 number in a file)
[Android Software Development] urrgevo:
As I said, I can hear a difference but I do know that without actual equipment to measure output it's very subjective. Next thing is to try without it again and see what I think. I posted it here to find out if anyone here has tested it out has more info
[Android Software Development] gehess:
Absolutely; and, just to be clear, I didn't say or imply you were telling people to play with all the toys at once.

But ARISE does enable someone to do that if they choose. My reply was more a comment on the enthusiastic nature of many modders, rather than on the devs. :laugh:
[Android Software Development] Wolfcity:
Sorry if my question was kind of unclear,english is not my native language.

In short terms: Can I change for example the ICE config or install Toolbox using the modular installer even all my modules were installed with aroma?

So that I stay with my aroma-installed setup and just extract the arise_customize.prop out of the modular one, set (for example) the Toolbox = true and flash it with the modular installer?

Or are there any differences to the way aroma handles that process?

And is a dirty flash required then?
[Android Software Development] kyzn:
The guys who said it doesn't do anything has equipment. One actually posted screen grabs of his testing environment. Call me a skeptic as the dev who made that module also claimed to have successfully ported Sony's LDAC.
[Android Software Development] urrgevo:
Nothing wrong with healthy skepticism. I remember all the drama over the evo 3d with everyone wanting a port of beats. What I heard could have to do with the new stuff in arise too. I heard an instrument I'd never heard before in a song I'm very familiar with. If it's still there when I disable I'll leave it be

2) Yes

I'm on LineageOS. If I was on stock I wouldn't bother with sound mods, tbh. Everyone's attempts to improve sound on the Axon 7 are when they're on a custom ROM (i.e. one not based on stock.) Really, the stock sound is as good as it gets because you're using the built-in audio processing the Axon 7 comes with.

After flashing, piano tiles 2 sound lags alot, the game and transitions are smooth but the sound is distorted and acts as if the game is lagging.. i asked and they said viper for arise is the problem so is there anyway to fix it?

If you're using a convolver, disable it while playing or simply try switching to another.

That's quite pushy, bro. While there is antiquated information there, it's sentimental to the Team as reminders of where we came from and will not be removed. Quite honestly, history has shown we can't really get most users to read anything. We put the Troubleshooting Guide in the installers and post the web link to it and people post problems answered almost word for word within it. So they come onto the thread and post their problem even though it was posted and answered only a page back.

If you place /META-INF/com/google/android/custom/audio_effects/dap/audio_effects.conf in /sdcard named as /sdcard/arise_effects.conf, the Modular Installer zip will use this file as /system/etc/audio_effects.conf every time, which should preserve your native Axon 7 Dolby Atmos system. :good:

I can't help you with installing all the modules but i can help you with viper4arise, if you're interested.

1. Download the viper4arise.zip from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=312978532265363777

2. Now go to magisk and then download section. There you'll find Viper4android FX. Tap on it and select the option to download and not install. It will be saved on in your internal memory card in magisk folder. I hve read that you already flashed this module and it didn't show up in your app drawer. It isn't meant to show up in your app drawer as it is only a fix to make Viper4arise work with magisk.

3. Now reboot into recovery. First flash the Viper4arise.zip and then the magisk module.

4. Reboot and you'll most probably see drivers installed and viper processing. At least that's what worked for me.

Good luck :)

Surely aroma is the best to install(arise+deturmy+2.94+modules) is the one i have.. i think dobly plus is useless... AM3D doesn't open with me.. Downloaded all modules but the music plar yer... My favourite is icesound config 6, Pure.. for viper4arise load the void effect or feel the beat :)

I think aroma does things differently especially as there are broken scripts at the moment so if you have modules from aroma and want some from modular I would definitely recommend dirty or clean flashing your rom and only use one not a mix. Hope this helps:laugh:

[Android Software Development] Shadowghoster:
It's written in the OP and it was said multiple times, that ARISE should be used with the magisk compatibility module (also linked in OP, there's even an own FAQ guide) since without it some scripts aren't executed.

Just for completion: ARISE somehow works without the module (at least it boots an the apps sent FCing) but don't expect everything to run well. And keep in mind that you won't get support if you experience problems in a magisk environment without the compatibility module.

ARISE works very well in a Magisk environment without the Magisk module. You just won't experience the full range of tweaks. But enough for your audio to improve greatly. I actually experienced more issues with the module than without before it was sorted out.
