I can confirm this. It also blocks the on call microphone when using speakerphone.

This is on the latest omni 8.1 weekly and ainur 26.02.2018 on OP3.
[Android Software Development] manpildo:
Or instead of doing this you can also try removing deep_buffer (there is a mod for that).
[Android Software Development] dyval:
Yup I have that as a Magisk Module together with my workaround. :good:
[Android Software Development] SimplyCity:
Have you tried yor module alone? I mean without any other modules? Does it work then? If you haven't, please do, and tell me if it works. I got some problems with dual speaker module, but finally have it working just fine.

[Android Software Development] FPSUsername:
Yes, it works as a standalone version. I also run v4a black n cheese unity (from arise), but since yesterday, v4a asks me to install the driver when I enable ainur sauron.
[Android Software Development] FPSUsername:
I tried this mod, but there's no difference at all. It does nothing. Same actually goes for ARISE and any sound enhancer I used in the past.

Top track is V4A only, bottom track is AINUR Sauron + V4A

because audio mod lib makes one up for ya

the same way I removed my audio policy XML and I still had it

install your dual speaker mod as a system mod (flash) then reinstall AML and Ainur on top

---------- Post added at 12:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 PM ----------

It may not be running on your device properly or your device has a dedicated DAC which in that case Ainur forwards all audio to it instead of only supported music apps (therefore you might not find difference in the audio)

Updated Sauron downloads & magisk repo (fix for policy patches in UO). Also, I've updated Sauron OP - there is now new method to make dumps for useful stuff, that is needed to extend future development! I strongly advise to follow that section, make dumps & post them in an open folder of my Gdrive.

Does AML need to be flashed again after updating Sauron?
[Android Software Development] :
Just so people know I wanted to create a rom that had AINUR . Not only was I told to remove my rom I started getting threats . Real nice bunch of people here. This project is not open source if people can not use it how they like. Very close minded and frankly it doesnt deserve to be on XDA . This is the reason Im closing my account here.
[Android Software Development] AlemanSantos:
You asked them before using this mod on your ROM at least?? OP is very clear, not use any part of this mod... It's their work, they have reasons for that i guess
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
I didn't ask you to remove your rom, or deleting account lol (I've asked you to not use sauron prepacked in your rom & leave link ti this thread for those who might wanna use Sauron as an option Nice badmouths about "threats" lol). You didn't contact me on adding Sauron parts into your work (I've had lot's of people asking me first about that at xda & even 4pda, idk what is wrong with you). Repacking for mods violates my personal rules on Sauron. It was made with an idea to support as many devices, as possible, countelss hours spent by me & my friends on making that happen, i'm glad you posted credits for us, but still there was (and still is) a disclaimer NOT to use Sauron parts in ANY development outside this thread.

Three major things stop Ainur from being "open minded":

1) we are designing experimental things, packed into seamless installer to support most devices, not one in particualr

2) Cancerous all-in-one bloated mods is a history on xda, that spread over the entire web, i don't want to see mine, or my friends work, packed into this s***t

3) I know stories about people, who made seamless works on camera mods. Some idiots stole their work & called moderators to ban original creators (Jishnu camera mods in particular, but there are lot's of other examples). Not to mention the amount of drama between some kernel devs, that were kanged by people they were working with. Doesen't seem like xda is that perfect place for open source releases, huh?

If you pm'd me first, i would try to explain this to you and guide with what we can do in terms of cooperation. For example - I've asked Zeroinfinity if i can use parts of his AcoustcX (pureXaudio formerly) long time ago, as i knew he won't be happy (as he had his own disclaimers) if i just repack his work with what i did back in Ainur Kronos times.
[Android Software Development] bigpun87:
Hi, I don't why but after installing this mod my volume gets real low & after uninstalling this mod it comes back to normal level. I tried it many times with and without editing sauron useroptions.

Can anyone pls guide me where am I mistaken? I am on Leedroid Oreo rooted with super SU.. Thanks.
[Android Software Development] bigpun87:
Sorry my bad...i am using HTC 10, Leedroid Oreo 5.1, super SU
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Navigate to each mixer_paths files in /vendor/etc/ , find this switcher "HTC_AS20_VOL Index" (should be somwhere at the top of those files), delete it and reboot.Let's see what happens
[Android Software Development] Againstt:
Hey can you update through magisk manager under the "downloads" tab or how else do I update properly from the earlier version?
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Yes you can, but it'll uninstall, if you flash it from magisk. So delete older version from it first, reboot, then download & flash
[Android Software Development] bigpun87:
Thanks UltraM8, as suggested i navigated to mixer_paths but i can't locate "HTC_AS20_VOL Index" in all 4 of them.

I checked those files from top to bottom.

Pls help.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Ok, i see, I've contacted with a guy with same device & rom as your's, he's absolutely fine tho...

My recommendations:

try adding this to the top of mixers (reboot after that & check):

<ctl name="HTC_AS20_VOL Index" value="Twelve" />

If that doesen't help, debug Sauron. These steps are one by one, i mean try first one, reboot, if nothing happens uninstall sauron. Then try second thing and reboot.

1) Delete sauron_props in /su

2) Revert stock mixers (there should be backup mixers with .bak

Might forgot something, as i didn't use supersu & direct system installs for a very long time)
[Android Software Development] tsalta:
HTC 10 well im still on Nougat But just to report the latest Sauron works like a CHAMP !

Thanks UltraM8

I read the changelog i see editings for M7 M8 M9 and for U 11 U11 plus

only the HTC 10 is missing from the changelog

Im happy with the 32bit forcing and AptiX. Shoebox as well.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
There is nothing new i can add for 10
[Android Software Development] tsalta:
Thanks its is ROck Solid as it is NOW i dont know what can be done further :)

The Only one problem is this is with all version Sauron MK 2 is i cannot use anymore the Dolby Speaker preset i mentioned this befor.

Well i never use it i use the Sauron standalone and thats it doesnt bother to use any other DSP as well.

But it is nice addition if you have control of the profile pressets

with all profiles in HTC 10 if i flash Sauron they doesnt change anything at all.

To be exact what i mean is:

in System\Vendor\etc\dolby\ds1-default.xml this is the exact file that the presets read the info how to sound like.

I guess installing the Sauron the ds1-default.xml somehow is not used anymore.

If we can fix this without to mess any Sauron effect/pressets will be awesome!

If we can have this we can grant even more from te stero speakers with the ds1 xml file from the AcoustiX Audio that Zero edited for example when using the Speakers in Theatre Mode the sound was really different when you listen conversation or watching movies this is the preset for optimal Speaker clearance.
[Android Software Development] tsalta:
[MENTION=6366997]UltraM8[/MENTION]

this is a Magisk version of the presets im talking about for Optimal Level without to have distortion for the Speakers and for the fine tune of the earphones presets in case somebody wana use it.

Inside is the DS1 xml file im talking about if you manage to put it in Sauron to work properly all together will be awesome.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] bigpun87:
Thanks mate.... Tried above steps and gave up. Bad luck for me, appreciate your help. Great mod
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Sauron does nothing to that file, maybe whole dolby doesen't work somehow (check logs for dolby/boomsound & compare stock with Sauron installed). Idk why actually, as m9 is fine.
[Android Software Development] UltraM8:
Did you try any other rom? If you ever have time for this, try pls.
[Android Software Development] tsalta:
Yes i know that Sauron even dont know such a file inside and doesnt do anything to that file but the crazy thing is that only this doesnt work!

in HTC 10 for example under Dolby Settings

HTC Booms Sound with Dolby Audio when you use Earphones u got a Menu

For personal Audio profile - Based on the hearing of your ears if you fine tune it yes this work i can switch it off and on and yes there are big change asap.

but the other Sub Menu is Dolby Headphone Effects that you can use diferent Headphone build in presets this doesnt work whatever you chocie the sound is the same.

And in General the Dolby Doesnt work at all because listening to Speakers no matter do you switch to Music Mode or Theatre is always the same! so HTC dolby doesnt work any idea of how to fix this or what can cause it?

this is present in all Sauron MK2 versions.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] manpildo:
So I just flashed the new zip in TWRP and did nothing else, AML is still present in magisk modules. I guess no reflashing of AML is needed then?
[Android Software Development] kowallis.r@gmail.com:
+ 1
[Android Software Development] jcmm11:
I would uninstall AML, uninstall then install new Sauron, reinstall AML.

AML makes changes and moves files around, creating backups that it restores when you uninstall it.

For Sauron it backs up audioeffects.conf, mixerpaths.xml, sound_trigger_mixer_paths.xml, vendor/etc/audioeffects.conf, and system.props

It replaced those with it's own versions, patched as needed depending on what mods you install.

If you just leave AML alone you'll now have conflicting versions of those files. No I don't know which version ends up winning out.
[Android Software Development] bigpun87:
Yeah, in past I have used Sauron mod with Viper 10 or even on Leedroid Nougat, it used to work great. I guess Oreo is more bad than being good at least for mods.....

Pls let me know if you find any other work around for HTC 10 Leedroid Oreo with super SU. Thank you.
[Android Software Development] chikimonke:
I could be wrong, but I believe AML looks for changes on boot and moves things around when needed. I don't think you need to do all the uninstalling. I could be wrong however.
[Android Software Development] Zackptg5:
It does :)

Flash it once and forget about it.

Removing everything and reinstalling everything is a good troubleshooting step when having weird issues though
[Android Software Development] gehess:
First of all, respect for generating waveform representations. I think you may be the first person to post them here. :good::good:

Second, I can see subtle differences between the waveforms you posted, and that's what you should expect from adding a sound mod to your audio signal chain. It won't (read: shouldn't) change the waveform completely because then it would be a completely different piece of audio. You only want to see slight changes to indicate that the sound mod is affecting your audio without destroying it.

Finally, perhaps try generating spectral representations/graphs next. The differences may be easier to see then.
[Android Software Development] FPSUsername:
I'll do that when I have time. I saw those subtile changes as noise. I do have a good cable and use my desktop's integrated sound card (intel z97 chipset).
[Android Software Development] gehess:
Perhaps try sending the same affected audio (so using Sauron & V4A) into Audacity multiple times and see if the subtle changes are different each time. If not, then that rules out noise and you're just seeing your audio + Sauron & V4A.
[Android Software Development] mtkmanjaro:
Hey dude i need some help here, how to use Sauron + viper4

[MENTION=6366997]UltraM8[/MENTION] i believe boomsound not working on the htc 10 is due to this mixer edit.

[Android Software Development] UltraM8:

[Android Software Development] Donric13:
So I just installed ainur on the dp1 on my Marlin. Seems to work. Had to install it through TWRP. Installing through magisk gave me error. JDSP I had also to install through TWRP. Seems installing through magisk seems to be wonky on P. JDSP isn't working good. Got heavy distortions when activating. Also installing audiomodlib (also through TWRP) didn't help. But still great to have ainur working in this early stage of Android P. So thanks to the dev!

Hopefully helpful feedback:

Exynos device A3 2016

Lineage 15.1 unofficial, addonsu-15.1

Flashed: DolbyAtmos_Axon7_Oreo_20180129-1.zip, AINUR SAURON [MK II.II] (11.03).zip, Ainur Dirac-Addon.zip + Ainur Collective Arkamys Addon.zip (port3), v4afx-v1.5.2.zip, JamesDSPManager-v1.5.2.zip.

On reboot, DA apparently working though no change in sound when toggling presets (so I flashed instead gh's Dolby-Oreo.zip which is more powerful at least) but v4a and jdsp not processing. The workaround to get these 2 processing was to rename /vendor/etc/audio_effects.xml to .bak and reboot.

Now, all is working good without any issue.

Looking at the changelog for Ainur Sauron 3/11, I see there's a callout for Pixel 2 XL (Taimen) AMP changes. What's the proper setup (config file) to get everything dialed in with A.S. and Viper on my Taimen?

Why does everyone seemed to dodge answering my question?

What's the best Sauron user option profile for Samsung device?
[Android Software Development] M Huzaifah:
Lol. It is very subjective and is better for you to determine it by yourself. :)
[Android Software Development] slimcyril:
That's not answer or helpful, I need someone with experience to the above question.
[Android Software Development] :
Tbh I do not enable anything from user options and I think that is the best, because the 3d effects seem to lower sound quality for me. But of course that's just my opinion. I can only agree that you have to find out yourself.
[Android Software Development] Stupifier:
What others said....just use default.
[Android Software Development] slimcyril:
Your response shared some light on the 3d effects and that's why it's good not to comment when we have no answers to a problem or question, However thanks for letting us know about the disadvantages of enabling the 3d effects.

Has anyone else experimented Sauron user option on Qualcomm's & have an advise for us as to the best profile selection?

Your feedback is really appreciated!!?
[Android Software Development] mohand06:
The sauron user options are mainly for qualcomm devices. Fmas for one doesn't work on samsung devices.
[Android Software Development] razrlover:
Wow! Must say very impressed

Pixel 2, magisk latest, twrp latest, and Aicp build.

Had viper 2.5.05 plus irs file for more depth and power, uninstalled that and deep buffer modules and installed your latest mod

Using your mod plus audiofx that comes with the rom offers same depth to bass and pitch to hi's, volume increase was there too perhaps with more clarity.

Brovo!!
[Android Software Development] slimcyril:
Thanks for sharing your experience with Sauron user option on Qualcomm's or Samsung, now we know the 3d effects and Fmas aren't advantageous on Samsung, does anyone have an experience to share about the Sauron user option?
[Android Software Development] JBolho:
90% of the options are for Qualcomm only and he said that Fmas DOESN'T work on Samsung. So, that leaves only one option: Default.

Furthermore, all options have their respective descriptions (and warnings even), so the file is kind of self-explanatory.

You want more sound customization, use Viper or JamesDSP, and don't forget to flash AML so that everything works, but then again, you'd figure that out for yourself if you searched, or at least thoroughly read the OP.

So, to finish my reply, no one else is giving more "experience with user options", because there's nothing else to say...

Try, experience, experiment and explore. That's what the modding world is about.
[Android Software Development] slimcyril:
If I didn't seek for advise on here I will never know that 3d effects had an adverse effect on sound and Fmas isn't compatible with Samsung device, the user option are descriptive and their warnings made it seem risky, not everyone has the time or inclination to experiment stuffs on their device, if you have no experience to share on the user option don't gain recognition or attention by leaving negative comments.

Therefore we are all here to learn & be helped, as the two user's above already shared that 3d effects and Fmas aren't an option, does anyone else have an input or advice on the best Qualcomm configurations for Sauron user option?
[Android Software Development] JBolho:
Then keep everything stock.

And no one said that the 3D effects had an adverse effect, it was a personal preference of a particular user.

And I gave you my input and suggestions, I didn't reply just to rant, it's all there.

You want to be in the dev/mod world but expect everything to be spoon-fed and everything to work 101%, just if it was straight from the factory? It doesn't work that way.

You asked a question and advice, and you should, but you had all the possible answers, what more do you want? To keep spamming with the same question over and over again? Jeez man...
