[Nokia 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] frince9000:
AUDIOPHILES GET IN HERE!

One of the many reasons why rooting is still Popular..

NOTE(Old):

Your phone's Dolby Atmos would not be functional (but its dual speakers still function well) in other words, the Dolby Atmos in the settings would be turned "Off" only.

Note(New): I had an error installing the driver but itndoesn cause any problems, I backed up the audio config file. Deleted, restarted and installed the driver from the app. It was successful. I tried bringing back a copy of audio conf. And jollah I made the built in dolby atmos system of Nokia 6 work with the Viper4Androi and I swear, the phone is like a mini stereo with awesome quality. Just a few tweaks and you're great.

For those who doesn't know what's ViPER4Android:

As we know that the vipe4android is one of the best android voice enhancer app. Not just voice/music enhancer but the best thing you can do by viper4android is, improve music quality. This app works on same principal and applicable to both kinds of music as well as video, and also works to games, almost every app on your phone!

How to Install ViPER4Android on Nougat

Make sure you’re rooted and have TWRP recovery installed on your device.

If not yet, follow Hikari Calyx's guide for rooting your Nokia 6 https://xdaforums.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-custom-recovery-root-t3702354

Just tested it on my Nokia 6 TA-1021 (March 30 +8:00)

1. Download the ViPER4Android_2.5.0.5_guitardedhero.zip file from the download button above and transfer it your device’ internal storage.

2. Boot into TWRP recovery and install/flash the ViPER4Android_2.5.0.5_guitardedhero.zip file to your device.

Reboot phone. (If you can't go to recovery mode just like me, use "#Rashr" app from playstore it has a function that can reboot you to recovery mode)

3. Download/install a root file explorer app (we recommend ES File Explorer/Classic root browser).

└ On ES File Explorer, swipe-in from left and turn on Root explorer feature. And don’t forget to grant root access when asked.

4. Now using your root explorer app, go to /vendor/etc/ directory on the device and rename audio_effects.conf to audio_effects.conf.bak.

5. Open ViPER4Android FX app on your phone (it installed when you flashed the zip file in step 3 above).

You’ll get a notification to install V4A driver. Select YES.

It’ll take some time to install V4A driver, and while doing so it might even look like it’s stuck but you don’t worry. It’s doing its job and will finish soon.

└ If Android gives an error that the app has stuck/stopped. Be sure to select the wait option, don’t force close it.

Once you get the Driver installed message on screen, reboot your device.

Is there any audiophiles here?

I would like to know if anyone has safely installed Viper4android to Nokia6

And if it's causing any problems with its dolby atmos system..

I wanted to know because tbh, the HMD global didn't make efforts for a nokia music app and it comes without a preinstalled equalizer. While Samsung even has their SoundAssistant and SoundAlive equalizer options. 3rd party app sucks. So this is the best option I only see, the mother of all equalizers for music.
