What's up ARISE users? Have not been on XDA much this week, I have truly been buried in Telegram any time that I am able to get on either a computer or even my Nexus, so trust that I have done anything but forget about this project:good: Several things:

Tag, you're it! [MENTION=5079472]sonophilos[/MENTION] we gotta get you on Telegram bud. you are the missing piece of the core of the team right now. Also, you are missing out on all the TLC going into Atmos right now. Speaking of, thanks to [MENTION=4231562]Yoinx[/MENTION] for all the help in recent days regarding Atmos and in general. I am also truly about 85% sure my pal [MENTION=4603975]daveyannihilation[/MENTION] doesn't even know what this project is and is always willing to help when I bother him with a question :p Just to name a few people who I felt deserve it in the past days... really couldn't not mention Yoinx's help though. Fixing the main apk in Leviticus is a pretty big help:p

And now for the novel, get your reading glasses folks:

This Team gets a whole lot of love from the Android community - it is really pretty amazing. As someone who hangs out around the places projects are being discussed, planned and shared I can honestly say that the way we have been treated by friends and others in the development world has been something special. It's been a huge boost both to the actual work on the project, and moreover to the morale of everyone involved to have the backing of a slew of helpful friends, some of whom being just random people who have gotten involved to others being "kind of a big deal" types who have been kind enough to take time to help us with some tough issues.

I'm amazed at how many people who are not audiophiles like us ARISE users have provided help and don't even care about recognition or anything - I truly enjoy playing a part on a Team in the Android community that is looked on in a kind enough regard to be treated like that. We appreciate all the help we get from friends of our many members to users who enjoy audio enough to find their own helpful things to contribute or to help us hunt down bugs to even our fellow sound modders who give us a reason to strive to differentiate ourselves and provide a truly unique experience. Thanks for all the help, everyone - I feel like this project gets much more TLC from the community than you would expect at such a young age. The genuine interest in the proect and passion of both the contributors and the users boosted by the strength of leaning upon friends when needed has me feeling very positive about the state of this project right now. For those of you who don't get to see a lot behind the scenes, I hope after reading this novel of a post, you will too.

TL;DR We can feel the love the community is giving to this Team and I sincerely hope you can all feel that same love going into the project :good:

I think that you misunderstood, it's not the link that's broken, it's the particular release that's broken. I'm sure that he will repost when it's ready.

If he really wanted the link he'd find it like I did :good:

My battery on CM13 has been better than on OOS. Plus, this CM13 build is stable as F*ck. Everything works! Except dash charging :(
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
No dice for Dolby, everything is same and what is required to get it to work
[Android Software Development] salehin4070:
No, I don't think I'm entitled to everything. I'm just a novice who have very little knowledge about these stuff and I appreciate the hard work you put every single day in this thread without asking for anything in return. In fact I respect every single developers in XDA. Sorry if I was rude to you. I didn't really think it that way before making the comment. May be I was a bit impatient. Sorry again. :)
[Android Software Development] jcarter3729:
Just reflashed my rom and installed Leviticus RC6.1 and it's not processing
[Android Software Development] salehin4070:
Got it! :)
[Android Software Development] WongItal:
Based on your experience I decided to try flashing Leviticus-0.97(last one that working for me without dolby fc) then dirty flashed rc4 then rc6.1, no more dolby fc. Going to test overall performance.
[Android Software Development] :
As promised:

I've updated my tweak.prop for use with RC6.1. I understand several users are having Dolby issues; I am too, and it bears mentioning that this isn't intended to fix that, and that in my case I have these issues with or without tweak.prop.

This has, however, fixed the typo on the af.fast_track_multiplier=1 line and the persist.service.clearphase.enable=1 line (which was set to =po on [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] prop, what's up with that? Census returned zero devices with that setting) and resolves a couple duplicates that had resulted from guitardedhero adding some props that were in my "adds" section, by removing them from the "adds" section.

Besides the fixes for (presumably) typos, the first section is line for line identical to guitardedhero default prop for RC6.1. I'm running on this now and the sound is quite adequate even without the use of Dolby Atmos. :good:

Hope this helps.
[Android Software Development] marko94:
what is the latest stable build to flash ? even if it is test build ? thanks
[Android Software Development] Brock Guffman:
Went back to Exodus release...Leviticus just not working...only RC 2 is booting for me ...Dolby FC and a lot of irs files don't load even when running Viper APK also.....I'll keep trying on future ones...but so far found my pocket
[Android Software Development] themoto:
Now this next question has been asked about a hundred times, there is no such thing as a 'permissive kernel' IMO. Any kernel can be permissive or enforcing. By flashing ARISE it will most likely set you permissive, and all that is is a tiny sh script running 'setenforce 0' which turns permissive.

If you really want a link to the first page here it is: www.ariseisthebest.com[/QUOTE]

@ RatchetPanda

This is not true

We tryed on Note 5 with the new project Grace.and then i mean a kernel Dev.too.Samsung locked something that after we change to permisse after reboot all changes are gone.

So we have to stay on Exodus version without Dolby Atmos GUI.

No problem but only that you know.
[Android Software Development] jcarter3729:
None of the Leviticus builds work on my phone i have a Droid Turbo XT1254...every other build works like Genesis and Exodus but not Leviticus and i don't know why...Can any body help?...or should i be patient and wait for the next Arise Project?
[Android Software Development] JBNex:
The way Leviticus is installed is entirely different compared to Exodus, which could be a factor. Also, the files installed may break something on devices, not sure which ones.
[Android Software Development] jcarter3729:
I flashed a few versions of Leviticus and what it does is the sound effects come on & off it keeps going back and forth from processing and not processing and not actually staying on consistently. Sounds like I'm going to have to wait for the next Arise project
[Android Software Development] sunseb:
Is it the Aroma that's broken? Coming from Exodus, I tried to dirty flash my ROM/extras then Leviticus RC6.1 Aroma but didn't see any v4a or Dolby.

Just wondering because I didn't try any troubleshooting yet, but I won't if it's confirmed broken lol
[Android Software Development] kyzn:
RC# still incoming. :D
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Leviticus RC7.3​
[Android Software Development] johnb380:
TBH Leviticus just doesn't compare to Exodus! Sorry guys I just can't leave the Exodus Special Arion version. The sound is just so good and full. And Leviticus just sounds thin and hollow to me. I will try the finished one once it's released until then good luck. And thanks Arise team for Never Settling!
[Android Software Development] BEATMICHAGAIN:
Where would one find this special version?
[Android Software Development] troyolson92:
Any plans to make a very simplified version for simpletons like me? After much trial and errors I now find myself wanting a very simple sound tweak with no gui, no options, no extra props, libs, etc. Nothing extra just the absolute bare bones of what GH likes best with zero extra mods, apps, etc.. taken all versions of all mods into account there must be a favorite sound of someone. My hearing isn't as clean and precise of most of you. Old ears of mine don't like treble at all above about 15k. Even at that it's too high to crank my rock music up with. Just an idea... looking for someone with better ears to create a super simple , no frills, with plenty of chills, for the offer the hill.. lol
[Android Software Development] johnb380:
Click the link in the OP for the sound system downloads then click exodus then click exclusive special edition!
[Android Software Development] ninjasinabag:
Is anyone else having an issue with Leviticus where viper's convolved only processes certain IRS files? Like the Dolby true sound and maxx audio files made by zhuang work perfectly...
[Android Software Development] dinaps86:
GH on AFH, 7.2 is the newest upload and 7.3 is underneath which is newest, ahhh lol also I don't know why but not all my irs are working anymore, I used to just install the V4A again like you actually put me on to but idk last time I did that it deleted the driver and than it wouldn't stick everytime I applied the driver rebooted it asked me again, busybox was updated and mount namespace seperation was off on supersu any ideas?
[Android Software Development] harpin14789:
Same feeling, special edition is amazing with ephexxis tweakprop.
[Android Software Development] tcat007:
Every phone is so different. On my 6p that version was probably the worst I've tried. Could have been the install (dirty flash from Leviticus). But the L rc6.1 I'm on is the best sound I've heard. I don't always dirty flash my rom, so I'm sure problems "arise" because of that. Most versions sound good to someone; it's nice to have such choice and such fabulous development. Thanks to all!
[Android Software Development] kyzn:
Leviticus RC7.2 is a no go for me. I'm getting the "There is an internal problem with your device..." error on boot and causing my apps to FC. And judging from the kernel manager, the big cluster went offline. Going back to RC3.
[Android Software Development] mohand06:
+1
[Android Software Development] Brock Guffman:
Yep
[Android Software Development] wrongway213:
You are brutally honest but not disrespectful. I like that - your feedback would be useful to us. You have Telegram bud? If so you should join our group. We could use a bit of criticism so long as it is constructive and points in the right direction.
[Android Software Development] colinmcg71:
RC7.3 working fine for me.

Nexus 6P, PureNexus 07/09, EX1.19.

Flashed vendor, restored clean system partition, flashed 7.3.

No FCs and Dolby stays active even after headphones are unplugged/plugged.

Great stuff [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] :)
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Still slippin on my tweak.prop proofreading lol. New smeejaytee prop as well. :good:

Leviticus RC7.4​

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 PM ----------

Damn, how did I miss that? I will correct this next release. Man, I apologize big time for not seeing your report this whole time.
[Android Software Development] smeejaytee:
Great words and don't think what you do goes unappreciated mate.
[Android Software Development] Tex99:
Thank you for all this update, that s great. On 7.3 (n6 with systemless root) Dolby app works fine (no more FC) but after a reboot it doesn t apply the effects (the eq is flat while the music is playing), so I have to press power button in the app to off, then again to on, and it works. Just to report :) now I ll try 7.4
[Android Software Development] enerGy:
Which of ephexxis's tweakprop's is best to flash from his file?
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Sony Music 9.1.12A.1.0 Suite​
[Android Software Development] Tex99:
Same issue with 7.4 :)
[Android Software Development] JBNex:
What is /system/toolbox for?
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
I just had the IRS problem as well, the fix for that is to install the viper apk from the Leviticus or exodus zip as an update, reboot and they work. But I feel you, many issues with Leviticus as far as getting dolby to work, having to do extra things to get viper or IRS tow work, just too much mess for me at the moment and the sound is not as good for me either but I'm sure it will be getting ironed out here in the future and I'm looking forward to the results
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
Would anyone mind uploading RC2 so I can ensure our friend Brock can test the build with us? Ive deleted most of the RC's. Thank you in advance. :good:

I'm also testing a few different things to increase SQ and processing stability. :good:
[Android Software Development] Brock Guffman:
it didn't work when I did the apk...another person had the issue too
[Android Software Development] tridogg97:
Here is rc2 as requested. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7gWRNBvzDSacldNMDVEVGpYNUU/view?usp=drivesdk

your getprop results , please
[Android Software Development] SSNJR2002:
You really know your thing. Thanks man i learned a lot. :D:good:
[Android Software Development] ephexxis:
Uhh yeah a dirty flash from Leviticus is likely to leave a lot of leftover and unintended files if you mean you didn't wipe system first

[Android Software Development] Weetbix:
Yeah, same :) I'm even tempted to spring the $7.99 for Neutron just to play a bit more.

I'm liking black player though - and I can't see Neutron being *that* much better for my slightly impaired hearing. Waaaay too many loud concerts without earplugs in the last 20 years will do that....
[Android Software Development] Brock Guffman:
I've got it...just will take me awhile to go through the files....works been busy
[Android Software Development] pamplinas:
Is this only for Xperia?
[Android Software Development] ephexxis:
its like if busybox were compiled by someone who wanted a set of tools, but also wanted to make things extremely hard on themselves, like someone who has never played the witcher 1 and resolves to beat it on the hardest difficulty.

It's important don't mess with it. [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] learned that the hard way XD

BTW GH, can i just ask: what's with the new directory structure in the mod package? im making due but it's really cramping my install game. feel like i'm just guessing half the time

---------- Post added at 02:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

i like your style of quoting.

setting aside the fact that black player essentially has no additional DSPs (and therefor the quality of neutrons audio playback being significantly higher by default), while it does have a nice ui and functionality, its simply one of many basic players available. neutron shines in its diverse set of features, it's flexibility of output options and its relatively quick rate of improvement for an app being mainly developed by one guy. if you're happy with what you have, then by all means stick with it! I'm not trying to get you to spend money you don't want to spend (though hey gas is expensive and i does what i does for free wink wink) and i'm certainly not affiliated with neutron in an official capacity, its just far and away been the most consistently impressive and fun to play with for me personally over the years. best 8 bucks i ever spent on Android
[Android Software Development] JBNex:
Thanks for the info! Since the new install method/folder structure of the zip, installation time has drastically increased for me.
[Android Software Development] Weetbix:
Oh, I don't need convincing that it sounds better than any number of standard music players do. That I fully expect - I have been considering trying it for a while now for that reason. I've always been cautious due to the price and the lack of knowing anyone that actually uses it (other than just reading "it sounds awesome"). But seeing the depth of info you've typed on it, and the fact that I have about $14 on my google account from a gift card - I may just do it.
[Android Software Development] jass65:
Special edition is the best i've heard.It's sound stage is open and not congested like others.
[Android Software Development] dingermtb:
Should work on all devices. I use on my OnePlusX and my S3

Sent from Outside the 9 using my A.R.I.S.E. Exodus Zombiefied OnyX
[Android Software Development] jass65:
I have Neutron and its a pain in the ass to use because of the UI. It's the most garbage UI i have ever seen.IMO the $7.50 is not really justified just because of the sound quality when you have a near useless UI. You may or may not notice a difference if your coming from like Poweramp. But if you were previously using anything other than Poweramp, you should definitely notice the difference.
[Android Software Development] pamplinas:
Ok Thanks bud.
[Android Software Development] smohanv:
I am using the latest Leviticus RC6.1 with srs convolvers in V4A. Also since I don't have to run atmos, I disabled it. I am only running atmos dolby services. Everything works fine and enjoying every sound of music. I am using with my Huawei P9. I tried flashing tweakprop but it fails. I want to know if flashing tweakprop add more goodness to music.
[Android Software Development] harpin14789:
It's a zip that installs the Sony music app and it's libraries. Should work across all devices. It doesn't SQ, just a music player.
[Android Software Development] nathanchance:
Leviticus RC7.4 running perfectly so far (Atmos not force closing and punchy sound all around), thanks [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] :good:
[Android Software Development] harpin14789:
I totally agree. I wonder why the Leviticus RC builds have dolby FC while on special edition everything works fine and sounds amazing.

Wonder which Tweakprop I should with special edition, maybe I should add the ZTE lines and see if SQ changes.
[Android Software Development] jass65:
I'm using ephexxis's EPHVIPR1 prop.It goes really nicely.I've enabled nearly almost everything in that prop except lenovo hifi + added V10 and G5 lines (might run in to prob for some) and finally its clear even at max volume. Barely get that scratchy sound anymore when using headphones with high vol.Perfect sound.

[Android Software Development] mattyditfc:
Just popping some feedback in. Ive actually now reverted back to exodus test build 0.9.7.1 as i can remember how amazing that was for me using GH tweak prop and exodus dolby DD+ preset. After testing RC exodus and test levitus builds i can confirm the sound quality is far superior in the 0.9.7.1. Reasons for this are compatibility issues and i know they are being compiled to support as many devices as possible without errors. The sound libaries in that build sound so clear. Bass mids trebs and vocals all on point. A much cleaner sound. Especially when cranked to the max. If i remember correctly those builds contained lgv10 and huawei p9 libaries also htc 10 dolby ? Sorry cant remember was a good 700 pages back when i was testing that phase of releases lol. IMO SQ has dropped. But to be compatible with more devices. Which is the best thing to do for this community. But im glad GH keeps these tests builds on AFH as i never had issues in early test builds and the SQ is just out of this world. The SQ since has slowly got flatter and less vibrant. For me personally.

Sorry i dont know all the ins and outs of what libraries where used then i know GH knows the score.

Just my feedback on recent releases and tests since alot earlier on.

Maybe in the future builds can be made for specific devices where SQ is far better for those that dont have compatability issues.

I know thats alot of work but its early days still in the development of ARISE.

Keep up the amazing work.

A.R.I.S.E will dominate the android sound scene.
[Android Software Development] Black_Eyes:
[MENTION=6301651]ephexxis[/MENTION] Damn :D

How do you write so much? :D

Nicely explained BTW
[Android Software Development] mattyditfc:
Hence there are not changelogs and sometimes would not say if dolby was enabled in previous builds or not[emoji14]personally for me the build i reflashed is my fav. I will still continue to test the later test builds but from my personal testing my ears tell me the build i reverter back to is superior in SQ ? i guess SQ would even sound different on different devices

---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------

Mind games ... Mind games ? i remember some builds GH would not say whether dolby was enabled or not. And you could only tell by checking the audio files[emoji14]personally. On my HTC one m8 and using my ears the one i reverted back to is superior in SQ. And know that when many people would mention no compatibility on a certain build with certain sound libraries they were tweaked or even removed to provide that compatibility for everyone ?
[Android Software Development] JBNex:
Maybe can [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] make an optimized version of the build including improvements from the latest version of Exodus?
[Android Software Development] mattyditfc:
Yeah its alot of time and work to accommodate for devices individually. I was simply putting my feedback in for my device and preference and i prefer the sound the earlier exodus testing builds with different or more sound libraries produced (P9 and lgv10 for sure) the great thing is there are so many different builds available to flash and test everyone can test old / new versions and keep the one they enjoy most. Everyone is different and so are devices
[Android Software Development] JBNex:
Changelogs or release notes can really aid in these situations
[Android Software Development] Woody:
I tried the special edition this morning and got Dolby FCs. I have a clean /system partition, then flashed the Special Edition and Tweak.prop.zip and rebooted. Opened Viper and reset my settings (seemed softer than Exodus Stable) and went into Dolby. It loaded up, then FC'd. Set permissions for Storage and rebooted. Fired it up and it still FC'd. Any ideas? I didn't flash anything other than the zip and TP.zip (and my personal tweak.prop that works perfectly fine on Exodus-Stable). I am running the Exodus Stable perfectly fine with no FC's, so not sure where the problem is. I'll keep looking, but I need to charge up a little if I am going to be continually flashing and restoring.

Nexus 6-Latest Pure-Latest ElementalX (permissive~always)

And this is one of the reasons why I am on Exodus Stable. It works for me perfectly fine. The other reason is I was out of town and offline, so after 10+ days, this thread probably grew 300 posts. I'll probably still try Lev, but until is planes out a bit and becomes reasonably more stable, I'll stick where I am. My ears are not the same as yours or GH's or Sonos', so the beauty of ARISE is that it accommodates all similarly, but different.
[Android Software Development] ramrastus:
Guys now I'm going to flash L-RC7.4 zip. And Which tweak.prop would I use GH or Seejaytee ?
[Android Software Development] Mehul.S:
The file "ARISE Sound Systems Exodus OP3.zip" is only compatible with OnePlus 3? Or can be used on OnePlus2 also?
