Does this install any apps like viper4android or just modify system files? Also, will viper work with this mod if not installed?
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
They will work with v4a & Dolby ports
[Android Software Development] LarappsOfDongle:
how do unclog system, i dont see how u say arise clog system arise good sound. i try ur mod to see if it has no clog. what is clog about arise? what files make arise clog, how is it mod not clog
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Mad configs, Many "ported" features work only on original devices, as they are tied to flinger, or other libs. Sony features - it's placebo. Samsung features work only on Exynos, and won't on MTK or QC, and vice versa. Dts - won't work anywhere except Huawei or Vivo (where did they came from). Beats & SRS from m7 - work only with m7's flinger (Sony Xperia X Performance also has SRS written in flinger). Arise also has many libs ripped off music playes - those libs won't work outside player apps! The same with other mods. You can look into logs on your own to define what is properly working & what's not.
[Android Software Development] metrohackz:
Hey the audio effects conf puts the music players libs in effect globally like neutronmp.so you'll find being used in arises audio effects conf. [MENTION=4445176]guitardedhero[/MENTION] can we clear the water before war breaks out like I already see its going to
[Android Software Development] metrohackz:
See libs are not being thrown in at random
[Android Software Development] viddy135:
So is this a mod that just modifies system?
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Now show the logs, that it's running without any errors & flinger got them working) I highly doubt it woukd without connection to service app (for example Ice from Asus shown in the picture).
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Yep. It ups your sound quality, without having junk libs - thats what we were aiming. You will definetly hear it)
[Android Software Development] viddy135:
Trying now
[Android Software Development] metrohackz:
Okay here's a better question what the hell are you guys using to produce the effects if theres no audio effects conf or anything like that it looks like this is some libs thrown together with nothing to call on those libs to be used regardless if its placebo or not arise still is superb over this so whatever arise is using to clog the system is actually pretty darn nifty.
[Android Software Development] guitardedhero:
He patches the audio_effects with the library path and uuid. This guy, these guys, know what they're doing. Trust me, this is not another one of those "goons" threads. :good:
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
We are using audio libs EVERY android phone has by default) Just extractetd from right places & mixed for perfect audio output. Doma999 even deleted all of the "soundfx" folders - and guess what? Audio still works, he's even saying its way better for him (on htc m8). Will try this hack later on my devices.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Try hack from post 6)
[Android Software Development] Slypnslyde:
Ok so where in system is arkamys and Dolby to delete. Also I don't have sound fx folders inside the vendor folder
[Android Software Development] Sir_gpm:
I did this hack but when restart the phone this message appear so did a dirty flash of my Rom cm13. Saying that the audio app crash.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Alright wait for a flashable version for hack guys. Probably tomorrow will release it
[Android Software Development] hansonchen:
Did this hack on my s4 stock debloated rom with Wolfson DAC. Very clear, crisp with natural bass from the original music produced in the recording studio. Really is showing the raw quality of any devices DAC by removing artificially created soundfx by manufacturers, in my case, Samsung.

Love this hack. Thank you very much
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
M9, S4, OP3, Meizu pro5 - passed this hack from now on. You can also take a look at policy configs from Kronos - this will help a bit more)
[Android Software Development] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
yep did the hack on m9, damn man it is so awesome! especially if you listen on spotify with extreme quality music and Sony MDR-1A !!!
[Android Software Development] htb2050:
But is it really better then the effects? Considering I am running a custom rom on s5 and 6p which have vastly different DACs so the quality with effects would be somewhat similar but with pure DACs it would be completely different.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
I guess you can always revert back)
[Android Software Development] SSNJR2002:
One question guys: Do audio libs improve or worsen audio? Im a little confused :)
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Have you ever tried flac 24bit/192 ?))
[Android Software Development] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
nope, sadly don't have such flac files :/ but will search later for some.
[Android Software Development] hansonchen:
I think this vary from one individual to another. Some are bass heads, some wants crystal clear treble, etc depending on one's genre of musics.

As for me, i like minimalist mod or original if possible that gives the best sound. It seems like Samsung's libs are a bit muffled. I'm searching for clear crisp non-ear-piercing treble when volume is cranked up & a little extra bass. I'm very happy that this hack is the best matching to my listening. Best of all, i don't need to flash many things, mod build.prop, setprop, confusing things & my rom can run on stock selinux enforcing kernel or not, base on my appetite.

Ainur already is the best minimalist mod. Then this hack came & is just mind blowing. My music is Pink Floyd, Pitbull, Milli Vanilli, Guns n Roses, Usher, Air Supply, Dr. Dre & many more diverse genre.

Ps. As explained by dev, using this hack will purely use your phone's DAC quality & capability. If it's good, there isn't a need for mod. If it isn't, complement it with a mod
[Android Software Development] EJerVJerO:
Flashable zip of hack?
[Android Software Development] Phrodini:
He said it'll be available tomorrow
[Android Software Development] metrohackz:
Okay well guys I use the xplay acdb files from arise on this mod and its nuts
[Android Software Development] Phrodini:
Which music mods are you running?
[Android Software Development] metrohackz:
Arise numbers 2.01 + ainur I posted my flashing instructions people say FCS persist I don't know what to tell them but you can try I know numbers 3.3 don't work with it.

---------- Post added at 03:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 PM ----------

So is the hack just gonna add a line or is it making the offload disable line work in unison with ainur ?
[Android Software Development] hansonchen:
Hunt down & delete /soundfx folders as described. Add line in build.prop, wipe cache&dalvik, reboot back into system.

No other sound mod needed, only your stock rom minus /soundfx folders
[Android Software Development] htb2050:
I think the hack disables all kind of software effects. I did that now and now am going to try my s5 with it for a day to see the difference.

[Android Software Development] fhLan:
can't i just uninstall the mod via magisk app? sorry for the silly question
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
Well yes as well as audiolibmod and BusyBox. Then flash the new one. The University is most useful for people using SuperSU and installing the mods in system
[Android Software Development] phantom146:
It was the first time I am using Magisk etc.

The problem is I cant flash the new version now.

If the flashing order is:

Rom > kernel > Sauron > Magisk: I succesfully boot up

But if I reflash Sauron both I.IV and I.IV.I I get dtuck at the google logo..

Anyone else have this problem? This is me being a firdt-timer on Magisk and kinda overwhelmed by it. Any help would really be appreciated

Also should there be a module appearing in magisk for Sauron? Or at least a file in /magisk?
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
No the order you flashed in installed sauron to system instead of as a Magisk module. I've had the problem because I'm testing Magisk 13 so I have to install it on system.

If it's working and nothing as is, leave it.
[Android Software Development] phantom146:
Yeah it figures. I know its patched on the system, the problem is I cant update it now to the latest...

Is it stable onv12? Maybe the cause for the bootloop iis v13 magisk because I have that version as well.
[Android Software Development] dyval:
If updating to the latest one = uninstall old version + busybox + Audio Mod Library by ahrion.

Flash new version then install Audio Mod then reboot. Mine works also with Viper4Android. Nothing beats this combo :good:
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
It's a v13 issue. The Magisk binaries have been unified into a single binary and as such the scripts are incompatible because they are asking for files that don't exist.
[Android Software Development] phantom146:
Well that sucks hard theb.. might as well go for v12 first once a major sauron update is relesed
[Android Software Development] ToxxMe:
Can you attach 'dumpsys media.audio_flinger'-output with ARISE and Ainur Sauron installed? Want to check it :cowboy:
[Android Software Development] Hopie:
hello, you write disble busybox @ magisk. i did it, but after reboot is it on!?
[Android Software Development] SkaboXD:
I flashed Sauron, and i got no sound, i can't play audio and video files and when I'm changing volumes, my phone is freezing for 10 seconds.

I'm not sure is this related to mod or my phone.

I think that S3 Neo have same DAC as S3.

I'm using CM 12.1 Lollipop 5.1.1 SuperSU rooted
[Android Software Development] veez21:
delete /system/su.d/sauron_alsa.sh

then reboot
[Android Software Development] SkaboXD:
Thanks man, it worked.

Can you explain me what is alsa_mixer?
[Android Software Development] kyzn:
Flashed latest Sauron - lost root, no SIM card detected, wrong pin error on boot, cannot detect ADB.

Removed Sauron, everything went back to normal.
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Did you see what I posted? I had the same exact problem. To get the latest version working try removing the modules including sauron, busybox and audiolib from magisk manager. Then reboot. Then flash the sauron uninstaller. Then reboot, then flash sauron and it should work. However, arkamys doesn't seem to work with it so skip the add ons.
[Android Software Development] veez21:
that's related to linux

you can google it ?
[Android Software Development] Ainsley Harriott:
Yes.
[Android Software Development] kyzn:
There's isn't much of a point then. Lol.

I like Arkamys. Guess it's the next version for me.
[Android Software Development] 24imelqui:
I.IV.I take 75 sec to boot past brand logo then ROM boot animation. 15 sec longer than I.IV on a fresh RR N ROM. The sound is amazing.
[Android Software Development] 2D-Kun:
tried magisk v12, still the same for me
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
If it's not working do a delete magisk.img from data and dirty flash. Then install sauron before Magisk and it will install to system. Then flash Magisk after
[Android Software Development] 2D-Kun:
so if i want to add addons too, i need to install sauron+addons then magisk?
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
That's one way to do it. So I can say is try. I only flash sauron but add-ons should be flashed the same way, before Magisk
[Android Software Development] yung40oz84:
I got somebody to do a vector on Google plus.
[Android Software Development] kowallis.r@gmail.com:
Keep getting permission denial on audio denial. Sorry.
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
Arkamys still FCS for me when installed as system
[Android Software Development] ToxxMe:
I think there is no solution yet for Arkamys. Maybe UltraM8 fix this addon soon. Hope so :angel:
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Give me some time, i have crazy amount of work. Don't have time for mods right now)
[Android Software Development] 2D-Kun:
same. i got sick of testing it non stop to no avail but dirac works for me
[Android Software Development] RogerF81:
Arkamys v3 works without issues here
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Are you using the latest version of sauron and/or Magisk?
[Android Software Development] RogerF81:
Latest Sauron, and still Magisk v12. Unofficial v13 builds didn't boot for me.
[Android Software Development] leo.riv:
After Flash Ainur Dirac-Addon Stuck on boot logo
[Android Software Development] daoxuat:
Auto reboot to recovery after install, can't boot up. One m9 nougat.
[Android Software Development] gehess:
Looking at the changelog, is there any noticeable improvement in sound quality between Sauron I.III and I.IV.I ?

It seems there have only been installer fixes since I.III, and I.III installed just fine for me, so has anyone noticed any further improvement in sound quality with later versions?
[Android Software Development] xSilas43:
I noticed a difference between 1.3 and 1.4

[Android Software Development] gitzolinick:
Lol?
[Android Software Development] okkbojan:
After update to Sauron I.IV.I microphone during a call does not work. The person on the other end of the line can not hear my voice.

When I use the speakerphone mic works!

In the previous versions I did not have such problems!

I did a restore from nandroid backup of working S.Team SL-M8 2.0.1 ROM and again returned problem with the microphone!

I had that problem with some versions of ARISE Sound mod but when I install the previous version all get back to normal!

My device is HTC M8 with S.Team M8 SL-2.0.1 ROM.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Not yet
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
I've hadn't that issue for a long time so I'm assuming it's due to deep buffer removal or v4a. Just adjust the in call volume after the call connects and it'll work
[Android Software Development] Ainsley Harriott:
I've got more information. I went into TWRP, mounted system and checked if system partition was mounted rw or ro on terminal. Interestingly it was mounted rw but still sauron couldn't write sound files..
[Android Software Development] okkbojan:
I don't have v4a instaled now.

How to adjust the in call volume after the call connects?
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
Volume keys?
[Android Software Development] okkbojan:
I already do that!

Amazing..The very first AudioMod which gave noticeable differences in Audio in Headphones as well as Speaker without the use of an External Equalizer like Viper4android.

Hats Off to you [MENTION=6366997]UltraM8[/MENTION]
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
That is why we fight against placebo mods here) Enjoy music, dude, may the sound be with you.
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Quick question. Is there a way I can edit the mod so that I can use it as if I don't have magisk but I am using magisk? Or is there not the required directories in /system? I want to use Magisk but install this mod on the system because the google splash screen annoys me how long this mod takes it to load. Thanks:D
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
Delete data/magisk.img. Dirty flash ROM. Flash sauron,flash Magisk, flash Magisk modules. In that order
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Okay thank you. I'm on a weekly rom so I assume I have to do that every time? Thanks. Also my rom comes with magisk.
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
Oh if your rom comes with Magisk just delete magisk.img and reflash Magisk at the end. And yes, each time
[Android Software Development] triskadeka:
Any news on Intel device (Zenfone 2)
[Android Software Development] veez21:
Not every time if the rom supports addon.d
[Android Software Development] ndarkside93:
Oh totally forgot about addon.d
[Android Software Development] gitzolinick:

---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

No, as long as your ROM supports add-on.d folder it'll stay after updates ??

---------- Post added at 04:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 PM ----------

There is currently little support for that device although it should be enough for you to hear the difference.

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

A question for you. Does audio improve with this mod on the CDLA headphones...?
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Okay thanks, just so I can make 100% sure so I don't break my phone. My rom has magisk v12 included so do I just delete magisk.img then flash sauron and arkamys etc then flash Magisk and my other magisk modules?
[Android Software Development] biggbear82:
Here to thank all for this, ainur is lightweight and great on mt6797, no gasps at all. With a little effort, my v4a setup and a good iem, i'm done. All type of music that i like, sounds great. Jazz, bossanova, good old funk, black, classical, rock, country, all. Thanks!
[Android Software Development] LazerL0rd:
You could uninstall the mod, backup the IMG file, then delete it, then install the mod again, and finally restore the IMG file. Therefore you don't lose your configuration.

If you want to do it your way, uninstall Magisk rather than just deleting the IMG file.
[Android Software Development] Prometheus:
The Mod supports SuperSU, right? Because I saw su.d detection during installation. My question is,If Install Sauron with Viper4Android by Ahrion(Which also supports SuperSU btw) will the both work in conjunction? Because It's written only AudioModLib Magisk modules are supported.
[Android Software Development] LazerL0rd:
Yep, it will support it. Flash SAURON first though.

Although I'm not sure about the SuperSU audiolib stuff.
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
Yup. Ahrions v4a is audmodlib so you're good
[Android Software Development] Prometheus:
But AudioModLib works only on Magisk,Where as I'm running SuperSU. I don't use Magisk,because of a weird problem where I lose root after flashing Sauron.
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
You should definitely read through the audmodlib op :)

It works for magisk, supersu, or rootless (detects which one you're running).

The lose root issue is likely because magisk busybox is enabled. Disable it in magisk manager and you shouldn't lose root. I use magisk btw
[Android Software Development] Prometheus:
Yeah I know the Magisk busybox causes this. I never enable it. This is my typical Process:

1.Flash Rom,GApps and a kernel.

2.Flash magisk and boot. Set the phone.

3.Flash Sauron and then Viper4android. Still the root was lost. And phone was on Splash Screen forever.

Oh well, I switched to SuperSU and everything's fine. I guess that's all that matters. :)
[Android Software Development] Der_Meister01:
What is your music vizualizer called? Looks nice
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
It's called pulse and is part of DUI navbar (it's part of many roms, not a downloadable app)
[Android Software Development] eclaxton:
Hey where I find the busybox you use in Magisk, I use the latest version of Sauron and the Rom dirty unicorns in my Nexus 5, when he wrote BusyBox in terminal is not found.
[Android Software Development] dinaps86:
Magisk always works fine from out the gate then I reboot, and force close systemUI doesn't stop can't even get into settings or reboot the device just non stop bombardment....makes me feel all sorts of butt-hurt :svetius::eek:;):silly:
[Android Software Development] fhLan:
me too, even though I had it disabled. and also, in my case, my phone didn't show boot animation but it still bootable. then i also switch up to supersu. i don't know if the cause is osmosis busybox or installer fix update in 1.4.1. because when i used 1.3 everything worked with magisk inbuilt busybox but i hadn't try 1.4 before the installer fix.

also, question, can i uninstall 1.4.1 with 1.4 uninstaller if i use systemless supersu?
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
There was an issue with busybox initially with 1.4.x. A fixed version was uploaded so redownload sauron and it should work

Can you post a logcat and a recovery log immediately after flashing sauron?
[Android Software Development] undopt:
My way that works even queueing all the zip files without reboot:

1) from clean

.flash rom gapps magisk sauron audiomodlib v4a udbremover

2) from dirty

.flash sauron unistaller flash sauron flash audiomodlib unistaler flash audiomodlib

get the files from here

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=165949
[Android Software Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Isn't the audio mod library included in sauron?
[Android Software Development] undopt:
It might but i was never able to flash sauron with v4a without flashing audiomod lib in between. It would get stuck on boot.

My guess is that if you install just sauron the audiomod lib included is enough. If you want v4a too it needs that specific audiomodlib zip

Does anyone have a different order to have sauron and v4a working?
[Android Software Development] fhLan:
any answer regarding my question?
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
Match the uninstaller with the installer version used. The uninstaller didn't need updated so 1.4 uninstaller works fine with 1.4.1 installer
[Android Software Development] 24imelqui:
Me too, I need to reflash audiomodlib via magisk manager for V4A to install its driver.
[Android Software Development] fhLan:
[MENTION=6037748]Zackptg5[/MENTION] and now i face the same problem as him

edit: i tried to replace magisk's busybox in /data/magisk with osmosis' that came with the latest sauron zip and enable it from magisk app then i flashed the sauron itself, and i got bootloop. after i restore magisk' busybox with busybox still enabled, everything went normal

SAURON + ARISE = Perfect Combination
[Android Software Development] gitzolinick:
ARISE... it will just inject trash inside your phone.

I suggest you to enjoy Sauron alone, it's a so high level mod that you don't need to mix it with anything else.

I just use it in combination with stock clari-fi from HK, that is originally present in my phone.
