Any Note 5 user here aside from me? Why do I seem to be plagued with this bluetooth problem of mine? ?
[Android Software Development] lightninbug:
I also have no music sound while in spotify, other sounds work like the keyboard sound .

I regret to say it but 0.9.9.6 is a step back in compatibility, and it's strange but Samsung's phones are likely the most incompatible.

[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
You would think, but the opposite is true actually. A device whose system is sourced for mods like this is at a much greater risk of bootloop or any other incompatibility. I had this discussion earlier with a friend where I was saying that Nexus devices always have the best luck because their files are never sourced for anything lol! :good:

[Android Software Development] diegobn:
I was but ironical! [emoji6]

What you said is actually the truth and Samsung itself is known to be not exactly a mod friendly company, e.g. think about what they did to ART and the troubles to get Xposed running.

That said, I report you an event that occurred me but please don't take it as an encouragement: I tried a comparison between the stock S4 mini (4.4) of a collegue of mine and an old version of Exodus that I can't recall now... The difference was little. Tiny, if you wish. Same song, same earbuds.

Of course newer version improved a lot and by now there's no way...

I am definitively not a fan of Samsung (although I love some features of my Note... the use I do of the pen is massive) but I have to admit they know how to do things right (I said they know, not they are always willing to).

Maybe it was only a matter of hardware (the S3 is way better then the Note because of the audio chip), but sometimes (I repeat, sometimes) they do an excellent job, worth of "taking inspiration" (or just extracting what is useful).

I'm sorry for the long post and please don't blame me if you will ever struggle again with a Samsung phone!

open the zip in root Explorer and delete the other applications, reboot and flash it. i doubt the install script is anything more complex than "unzip /system to /system" so you shouldn't run into errors

---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 AM ----------

to be honest we should have expected difficulty getting files from samsung to play nice with everyone else's devices. it's samsung, they create software like apple makes hardware. exert maximum control and ensure **** only works our way, within our infrastructure only.

hardcoding the s7s bootloader lock to try to prevent root in the name of security? please, while android sure does have many vulnerabilities, how often do people actually send up installing malicious apps (outside of adware) that utilize root for nefarious purposes? the last figure i read was in the neighborhood of 2% and they were almost always aquired outside the Play store, meaning it was a deliberate and stupid action on the part of the user. this treat-me-like-a-baby hand holding bull**** is why i don't buy apple products, though i respect the hardware.

sorry, rant(void)

---------- Post added at 08:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

that's not strange, it's by design on samsungs part. on Android, Samsung devices have always been the least developer friendly which sucks primarily because the hardware is so good and also because if any phones come out of the box necessitating a good debloat and UI overhaul, let's be real its samsung phones, regardless what carrier you're on.

[MENTION=6301651]ephexxis[/MENTION], hava a question for you acording to your footage (Sent from my ASUS_Z00A using XDA Labs): could you plese share secret way to make Arise working on Z00A? Do I have to change some binaries inside the mod's zip? What to do to flash it correctly, without errors?

Thanks in advance!

:)
[Android Software Development] ephexxis:
what you say about nexus phones not having anything sourced for mods i completely agree with, but let's be honest, nothing comes preloaded on them apart from Google apps which aren't exactly anything people would want rolled in to something like arise in the expectation that those files might improve something haha...

---------- Post added at 08:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------

its worth noting (if I'm not wrong) that the s3/s4s came with a fairly high end (as far as smartphone hardware goes) Wolfson DAC onboard and that's relatively uncommon even these days, only a few phones have premium DACs included though no headphone amps to speak of.
[Android Software Development] vhsantos1:
Hello. Others users try to help with Samsung files and say ....and its true, that Android expert solve this problema, só maybe you want to give him a call and maybe we can have that files. Exist a version, alternate2, that use s7 files and it boots....sorry OT, just trying to help
[Android Software Development] diegobn:
I'm totally aware of that and it's the reason why I try to keep it alive at all cost: it sounds really really good, out of the box!

The WM1811 audio chip is a 24-bit, two channel DAC (digital-to-analog converter) that includes active noise reduction circuits and a four-channel equalizer.

After 3 years of excellent job is starting to have some damn issues and I'm struggling to fix it (the pins that come out to connect the battery are out of place and I need to completely disassemble it to restore them in their position: a few tools, patience and a steady hand).

The S4 comes with the WM5102: I don't remember the technical comparison but it's even better, and that's the reason why I made a bad impression while comparing it with the ARISEn Note (that uses the poor Qualcomm WCD9320 17500 Audio Codec).

I don't understand why such a huge company is not considering the idea of putting back some serious audio hardware instead of focusing only on display and camera: what is the good of recording a video if you can't play it completely because the audio sucks? I mean, their top notch phones don't come cheap so a few bucks more for DAC and amp wouldn't be noticed! Aside from the bloated system that bogs and slows down the phone to the point that one would throw it out of the window just to see all Samsung's useless apps and services crash onto the walkway.

End of the o.t.
[Android Software Development] ephexxis:
I've been waiting for modular phones to take off so i can build a high end mid - tier and save boatloads by having an 8MP rear facing and no front facing camera. cameras for a user like me are the single most expensive single least important component. I'd trade a decent DAC (with a headphone amp) for one of these ridiculous 15-20mp cameras any day and have money left over to play with.

I had twrp error 7 when flashing .9.9.7 and .9.9.6-1. I will post the recovery if needed in the morning.
[Android Software Development] SimplyCity:
Thank you VM! This put some light to my knowledge. Well, for a long time there was 4.8 uni mod from GH (which I actually use on my Asus), but it looks like Exodus plays better (real experience on S7E and N4 910F of mine), so I decided to ask, acording to every help you've gave already. So thank you again. Now: GH told me, that writing uni script is rather hard way, and he will try do that with final Exodus... or whenever... But, you know, people (me) want goods erlier, even with troubles by the way. As I have found 0.9.9.1, I will do what you've told me, and manualy place whole files, give them proper perms and try. I belive it will work, bc I did that some times ago with 1.2.1 Genesis version. Had to reinstall whole rom and did not found stranght to play with manualy files moving again, thats the second reason I asked you.

Finally, thanks for the driver. Is it different from that one Viper istalls on x86 while flashed alone? BC now I've libv4a_fx_ics.so 926kB (948232B)...

Wish you funny day, or (isn't evening there?) good night!

[Android Software Development] Gordietm:
Excuse if I'm asking a question that's been already answered. On a clean rom flash, do I just flash Arise sound system or do I need to also flash Viper4android?
[Android Software Development] ephexxis:
its 3:32 am and im parked at a dennys putting the finishing touches on the EPHEXXIS TWEAK.PROP VIP. haha...

the x86 driver replaces an arm/neon optimized driver that is included with the arise packages and is normally what's installed. when you just install using the 2.3 apk and haven't placed the driver there as the mod does, its supposed to autodetect your hardware and install the appropriate driver or offer choices if there's more than one available to you but I've never installed it that way since having this phone so I've never checked if it actually uses the right one.

I'm currently still using ARISE EXODUS 0.8.9 and I've posted why, you can go find my other posts pages back if you want to read about that but after i release this prop file I'll probably update my rom, kernel and try one of the new packages. funny enough i have a prop set aside that includes a load of lines from GH's current one so it'll be interesting to see how it works.

be patient for the script. go take alook at the previous universal script and consider how many more libraries are included now. i spent several nights comparing binaries and shell scripts trying to learn what i might change in the mod script to get it working and ultimately gave up cause it's not straightforward at all. doesn't make sense to go to all that trouble until there's a stable version with high compatability.

also be prepared to dirty flash your rom every time you want to update because otherwise you'll have leftover files if any are normally removed during the recovery install and this will cause problems. and it's very important not to underestimate the power of a reboot. reboot after you copy and set perms, reboot after replacing the v4a apk if you have to on your rom, reboot after driver install, reboot after every tweak.prop edit or manual configuration of your buildprop.

Viper is part of arise sound systems so no need to flash viper
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
Yes, I found something out, the newest with Samsung files caused my phone to just freeze and reboot when updating apps from the play store, and I know because I dirty flashed and left arise out and all apps updated perfectly. When arise was installed it would not update one single app and rebooted and froze on every one of them, messenger, google app, Netflix, and many others. Definitely an issue in the new 0.9.9.6 versions.
[Android Software Development] Roi007leaf:
Happens to me too on my g3 bit just for the Google apps
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
Mine was more than google, basically large apps, and then as soon as dirty flash and no arise they bolted right through and updated, hopeful 0.9.9.7 not like that, or is that version u on?
[Android Software Development] donzzy:
I subscribed to Dr Ketan's thread and asked if his ROM works on my model. ?

BTW, did you try installing Dolby UI as a normal apk?
[Android Software Development] Roi007leaf:
Latest..but happens on all of the versions I tried..(basically all of them) could be an issue with something else rather than arise though
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
Well its a known issue on ROMs too, but it has been pretty good and only happens once in blue moon on dirty unicorn ROM, but with arise I could not update any app without freeze and reboot.
[Android Software Development] hyewiz:
No haven't try it, How is that done?
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
Whatever is new in 0.9.9.6 upwards needs to go, I can't flash from 0.9.9.6-1 and up, even latest 0.9.9.7. Not once or flash twice, doesn't work period. And the one I could flash is causing system issues with installing apps.
[Android Software Development] jump0624:
Install 0.9.9.7 getting ERROR: 7. Then install more time by separate install. This time get sussce. Until now no any bootloop or fc:good: (i do semi clean flash everytime)

I am using nexus 5 pure nexus rom blu_spark kernel

0.9.9.7 is better than 0.9.9.5-3 . More clarity and soundstage make exodus to next level.

I've tried every suggestion and nothing working for me, last working one for me for compatibility is 0.9.9.5-3. I still gotta make sure I don't get the freezes and reboots with this version, but everything else is good and I am using the tweak.prop from guitar hero version 0.9.9.7

Just a quick response about 0.9.9.7. WOW!

No weakness. Just Power. It makes fun. We've got a clear basement, many room to unfold and the mids takes it chance to do it. I could imagine I'm standing in the drummset. Crystal clear highs and the absolut best is so much room for background. I can hear so much more hidden stuff, like counting to begin a song, clicking drumsticks, etc...

Of course, I heard it already before, but with 0.9.9.7 these backgrounds get its perfect place.

Music makes so much fun.

At this moment I installed only ARISE, HarmanKardon Preset and Exodus Preset. And I'm overwhelmed.

What a great move forwards.

So far 9.9.7 is, once again, absolutely phenomenal. On the downside though, it seems like that all the best builds have the compatibility issues. 9.9.7. is now my favorite build using HK Preset, XPlay3S and guitardedhero tweak.prop, but seems alot are having issues? I say abandon all those with issues...ok, absolutely joking, of course. I fully agree one million percent that compatibility should be the number one focus. It would be phenomenal to get 9.9.7 fully compatible without compromising sound?
