its not a limit on the DAC, you can think of it as a limit on the amplifier but what's happening is those effects are boosting certain frequencies

to the point where they start to clip.

there are a few different kinds of "crackling" that one may encounter at different points of this process.

during DSP, before the audio leaves your phone, you can run into the first kind, the kind usually fixed by using an ondemand based governor (or any governor that is more smooth in its scaling or scales based on activity more reliably than timers). this is very likely "overrun" or "underrun" which is glitchy feedback caused by data not being accepted when it is presented by the buffer. this is usually because it's full but in this case because a governor can sometimes race to idle or just scale down to your lowest freq when processing and stall the buffer.

the second kind is in my observation the most often encountered, by a fair margin. not going to explain gain in a ton of detail again as I've made several posts in the past doing so, but this staticy sound is clipping which in short means you're applying too much gain to the signal, and adding a bunch of distortion because its overwhelming the system. clipping is bad for both your ears and your hardware. if you were to clip your music for say 6 hours straight, you may vary well do serious damage to your equipment, especially speakers or headphones.

the other kind of crackling is probably weak signal shielding/isolation by either the cable you're outputting in analog - >headphones /speakers etc, or the jack its plugged into having weak, faulty or dirty connections. you can see if moving around your cable reveals sweet spots but frankly if moving the plug at all results in popping its time to get a new cable.

Adjusting it on my phone should work. Please help!

[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
Ya when running runme.sh on RC7 it fixed my processing error with YouTube and processed successfully and did not process when phone is idle which apparently is the correct way, but now on RC8 I can't get YouTube to process at all even when running that script. If I flash deep buffer removal zip it's obviously going to process all the time even when idle which I don't want but I at least want it to process when it should. Also, I made a post of my Bluetooth volume if someone could look into that I would appreciate it. I flashed RC8 no tweak.prop yet until I test and see if it works in my car first.
[Android Software Development] cmo220:
I don't use either of those players so I'm not sure if they are working for me or not. Did you flash the permissive zip for Android N found in the Arise zip? You could try flashing that and/or the deep buffer removal zip which is also found in the Arise download and see if that helps.

Try deleting /system/fpgaice40 and rebooting.

Dolby Atmos should not require Permissive Selinux or root. This Dolby is ported from a Lenovo K4 Note Marshmallow rom so it obviously is fully functional in Enforcing Selinux without root. I've brought this to the attention of ahrion, the team's porting expert and owner of this port. :good:

It's possible, I wouldn't suspect that before suspecting a library though. Is this without flashing tweakprop.zip or deep_buffer remover zip?

This sound system has very little dependency on root and root is only necessary if Enforcing Selinux is desired. If a Permissive kernel is available, this sound system will fully function without root whatsoever. :good:

RC8 is a test run of ahrion's Lenovo K4 Note Dolby Atmos port using a full graphic user interface rendering the previous Dolby GUI Add-On's obsolete. :good:

HTC 10's Dolby Atmos has been completely removed in favor of ahrion's Lenovo K4 Note Dolby Atmos port. Those entries, although possibly unnecessary, can be found under ## Lenovo™ K4 Note Dolby™ Audio ## of my tweak.prop. :good:

What device/rom and which RC8 version?

Only if it's not fully functional out of the box. Try disabling and rebooting before deleting though. :good:

You likely will need to disable any Samsung stock audio effects. You can also type getenforce in terminal to verify your Selinux environment. :good:

I am running Angler, Pure Nexus, RC8, and I am more concerned about my bluetooth volume not being changed [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION], but the viper processing is also an issue, but I see a database has been started for that. Like I said with deep buffer remove everything processes but viper processes even when idle which apparently it should not do. The biggest problem I am facing now is not being able to adjust my volume through my phone when connected to my head unit through bluetooth and it did work at one point until more recent builds. Right now I have no tweak.prop and will test when get to car to see if that makes a difference. Also, I think after I do tweak.prop youtube processes, but I have to test that for sure again as well.

[Android Software Development] :
Hey [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION], I'm here with my $0.02.

I haven't had any compatibility issues with any Exodus build (on Sense), and previously my favorite was 0.3. It was punchy and clear, to the point that I went back over my ViPER profiles and disabled / reduced many of my settings to hear it more naturally. The update to 0.4 seemed flatter, while 0.5 brought back some clarity and dynamics but had lower bass - more like a pulse than a punch. 0.6 again seemed flatter, with a step down in the feeling of fullness in the soundstage - like it filled less of the "room" with speakers or headphones. I've since reverted to 0.5 and that's what I'm currently listening on.

Hope this helps. :good:

Update: I've just switched back and forth between ds2 props on / off and I strongly prefer with them off. On adds some volume to the bass, but muddies it and seems to take the crispness out of the treble some.

FURTHER UPDATE: I see the updates in 0.5 recommend a dirty flash, and that 0.6 does nothing but remove orphaned libraries. I had dirty flashed both of those over 0.4, I'm going to try a clean flash and 0.6 and see if I still have the same findings.
[Android Software Development] arcticnights:
By clean flash do you mean clean flashing the rom/kernel again and wiping data? Thanks.
[Android Software Development] :
"Clean flash" in the context of ARISE means wiping /system and /cache, then flashing your ROM/GApps/Kernel, then ARISE, then any other mods you may have that write to /system (like in my case I have inverted GApps and the Xperia Z5 Premium Image Enhancer port which I install after ARISE.)
[Android Software Development] arcticnights:
Thanks! That cleared things up.

If possible, could I asked you a couple more questions from my post above? It's a lot I know, but I'm still quite new to this sorry.

Should I delete my build.prop.backup file before flashing exodus 0.6? (Would you recommend Exodus 0.6 or Genesis 1.2 in their current states?)

Just to be clear, the procedure would be

1) delete tweak.prop

2) boot into twrp, wipe cache and dalvik, (Do I have to wipe system?) flash rom, gapps and kernel

3) flash exodus 0.6 without tweak prop

4) If working, flash zip with tweak prop

I'm currently on ARISE 0.93, Dirty Unicorns 10.2, Supersu 2.72 and the latest Elite kernel.

My SElinux is on permissive (enabled by the kernel I believe).

I have audio_effects.conf and audio_policy.conf in system/etc, and have not disabled my musicFX. I can't find AudioFX on my app list, if I'm not wrong that's because I'm on an AOSP rom?

Any special steps to perform because of any of these?

Lastly, would you recommend flashing Genesis over Exodus? Are people doing that to revert to Genesis or for a combination of features from both?
[Android Software Development] Komodoketavaran:
I have to agree. In my opinion the 0.3 is the best.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5X mit Tapatalk
[Android Software Development] :
1) Do delete tweak.prop and build.prop.backup from /sdcard if you've been having any compatibility issues. You can always extract one of the recommended tweak.prop files from the ARISE zip you download and apply them after your first successful boot by reflashing the ARISE zip you used or /sdcard/TweakProp/TweakProp.zip.

2) Do wipe /cache and /system. Dalvik-cache shouldn't be necessary as all that will do is require you to rebuild it for your user apps. The "new" system apps installed during this process will rebuild anyway, and it will take less time. :good:

3) and 4), yes, correct, as detailed in 1) above.

You shouldn't have to do anything special for your ROM setup as you've described. AudioFX was causing issues (for me) on AOSP based CandySiX, MusicFX is the preferred system and if you have that, keep it, you don't need to do anything else here. :good:

I personally intend to keep testing the latest Exodus builds. I recommend 0.6 for this reason, or you can try 0.3 as it seems is preferred by a few users here. If you do decide to go with Genesis, go with 0.8.3. This was the most compatible, most 'complete' build, the one I'd fall back to if one of the later ones failed to launch. It's also popular among the testers so far, it seems.

EDIT: Don't flash earlier versions over newer versions. This can only cause problems unless you find some coincidence combination where the files in use don't overlap. In some cases you'll want to avoid flashing newer versions over older versions (without a clean flash) and goodheartedhero will usually indicate if an update requires this.

Hope this helps! Good to have you with us. :highfive:

[Android Software Development] arcticnights:
Wow, thanks for the help! I'll go ahead and follow the steps with Exodus 0.6. Will report back if I have problems with static/crackling, which I have been experiencing quite frequently on 0.93.

As an aside, when I clean flash a new rom is it okay to backup and restore user apps (with user data) with titanium backup? Will this defeat the point of clean flashing? Again, thanks so much.
[Android Software Development] JJEgan:
No problem using TB to restore apps but don't restore Viper .

On a clean flash i use clockwork mod or similar to backup . Then backup just system .

Result dont need to wipe and install i just restore the no sound mods system .
[Android Software Development] :
To second JJEgan here, yes. Backing up and restoring *user* apps with TiBU is fine. This process shouldn't require you to wipe /data, though, so you probably won't need to. Restoring system apps (such as V4A) will cause problems and, again, shouldn't be necessary here.

EDIT: Static/crackling might be fixed by setting your CPU governor to Ondemand and raising the minimum frequency up one step, as Woody had presented in the original ViPERAudio thread. :highfive:

UPDATE [MENTION=3095420]JJEgan[/MENTION] I've been working with the backed-up everything-but-ARISE /system and I just popped into the ViPERAudio thread and suggested doing so to another user before I realized it was your suggestion here as well. I've given you thanks. :good:

Rom is not CM based in my opinion. I see that my modem goes off. Airplane mode change doesn't make the trick. I wonder why flashing Arise affects modem???
[Android Software Development] :
I really strongly suggest testing any outside factors possible, thoroughly, before insisting that ARISE is causing the problem. I'm willing to be wrong here, but nothing technically about ARISE should touch anything related to the modem. ARISE patches audio conf files, installs audio processing libraries and installs ViPERAudio. You can tear down the file structure and install script and see that. (I just did before I made this post.)

I hope this helps and I do want to help, but I also don't want to send poor goodheartedhero on a compatibility testing adventure if possible. :fingers-crossed:

EDIT: looking at your original post mentioning your Selinux mode seems to change, you might try removing the /system/su.d folder and rebooting. I wonder if the same supolicy issues I was having ages ago are affecting you.
