just an update on my side, I re-rooted a realme c2 rmx1941, flashed magisk zip 26.1 along with the instructions from magisk app 26.1, direct install.

I tried flashing the v4arepackagedhoch61 because it was working initially back then. Its status were abnormal, including with legacy mode turned on

didn't know couldn't downgrade magisk to v25 even if i flashed it via twrp, though it could be some step that I didn't include.

Flashed v4arepackagedhoch69 and its status is normal, legacy mode turned off it will be abnormal.

I wouldn't recommend downloading a magisk module from any third party sites like mediafire and etc, its kind of suspicious. If there are any changes that fixed some issues, it should also be posted to the source, so anyone would able to benefit from the fixes. I think its best not to have too much variant that were scattered throughout the net that would confuse anyone trying to troubleshoot their v4a

ViPER4AndroidRepackaged 69

Notice a bug: When skip songs on Spotify, sounds are clipping for 1-2 seconds. I think it's happen because music stops for while then play again stopping v4a audio session (and restart again, doing this idle effect). Failed prossessing audio to other apps (like Soundcloud).

Device: alioth (Poco F3).

Rom: Lineage 20 A13 (2023-06-17)

Installation Module: KernelSU

ACP/AML: No

Apk: Provide by ViPER4AndroidRepackaged 69

Legacy mode: off
[Android Apps and Games] sarf2k4:
does it not work with legacy mode enabled?

difference between legacy mode on vs off in summary (based on old post, maybe page 40+ of this thread)

legacy mode on

all audio output will be processed all the time

legacy mode off

processing will be done only when there is a music playing intent broadcasted by music player app. this will reduce ram/cpu usage by v4a. but not all app broadcasts their intents, hence turning on legacy mode is recommended.

If i recall correctly, soundcloud don't broadcast their music intent, while your app perhaps works with legacy off, the way you described is that most likely that; upon switching tracks, the music intent broadcast by that app changed between "play" and "stop". same way as stopping/pausing the music.
[Android Apps and Games] alefmm:
With legacy off, Spotify works audio and EQ but YouTube and SoundCloud don't (stay totally mute).

With legacy on, Spotify works and other apps play songs but don't equalized from v4a.

Using the same device with A11 or A12, acp 2.5, aml 4.2, v4a 2.7 original and material app (magisk) the drivers install but don't prossessing audio.

To fix, I used to install JamesDSP and it fix audio policy for all sources. After, install the old app 2.6 instead of material app (because old presets).

This method can't work on KSU (just Magisk), the original material on installation process asks to install drivers and can't mount system (because KSU).

So, I tried to install JamesDSP together with aml and acp but it fail too with old or newer app of James DSP (I guess it is not compatible with KSU) and nothing change for v4a.
[Android Apps and Games] sarf2k4:
have you tried with the compatibility mode? Not sure if that would help too...

I also would like to think that, old or original v4a won't work anymore because what make v4a works is actually the selinux rule. It may work on older phone+older magisks too but not with with newer platform,hence the repackaged module to cater with the newer selinux rules.

I'm sorry, what is KSU, KernelSU? I flashed mine via magisk app or magisk module manager

Have you tried v4a64bit/v4a reverse engineered?
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I dont think SELinux will be the blocking factor. If it was, then it would run 100% as Permissive. SELinux is well dev'ed, and "holes" can be identified and punched through fairly easily.
[Android Apps and Games] alefmm:
Yes, not working too.

Older app works after newer app install drivers and using magisk (25 and 26, auto updated), selinux always enforcing.

In this case, JamesDSP provided the fix but acp 2.5 and aml 4.2 was enough (when I fix it with JamesDSP, acp/aml wasn't updated yet).

Yes, Kernel su. I don't use anymore Magisk.

Tried V4A RE, 64 bit not yet. How can I find it? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] sarf2k4:
Didn't mean to talk like someone who knows everything, it was mainly from my own experience why it didn't work. no offense intended either. There are like 2 of my posts few pages back regarding the v4arepackaged didn't work on a realme c2 rmx1941 and it worked after the v4arepackaged63.

But you could be right as well on the selinux things

Here is the link to it https://github.com/AndroidAudioMods/ViPER4Android/releases

Hope someone else can help too

is there a option to improve games and phone call/speaker
[Android Apps and Games] alefmm:
Didn't work too.

I tried both options and don't work.

I think the instructions on script need some fix for A13 and KSU.

The application works, but I can not add DDC files now because root explorer gives info about the inability to show a prompt to approve copying this file. What do I do now?
[Android Apps and Games] zgfg:
Use another file explorer :-)

It's about scoped storage protection introduced by Google in A11 or so

I have A13 Xiaomi, using MiXPlorer (I think I installed, but long ago, some API 29 version or so, exactly bcs of with default build I was unable to use /Android/data), it asks me first time to allow access to the folder - as on screenshot
[Android Apps and Games] adek89:
ok thats work, but , how do i turn on the convoler? the option is greyed out,
[Android Apps and Games] zgfg:
What is your version of V4A - 64bit Beta (afaik) does not support Convolvers yet
[Android Apps and Games] adek89:
I have the latest 0 5 0 from https://github.com/AndroidAudioMods/ViPER4Android/releases , any other application can't install drivers,
[Android Apps and Games] zgfg:
As said, find on GitHub, look into the Status, I think that 64bit Beta does not yet support Convolvers

Got a new tablet (Samsung Tab S8+). Tried ViPER4AndroidRepackaged, but it failed to install drivers. Tried ViPER4Android-RE, and it worked correctly.
[Android Apps and Games] bombadier:
I have just got a Pixel 7A which I understand is 64-bit only so I installed the Reverse engineered version which I am happy with, is a lot better as I thought it might be, installation was flawless installed the app and the magisk module and am rocking in the free world, works well with youtube music, however with other streaming apps, bbc sounds (radio streaming) and FM4 I have to mess around with compatibility mode to get Viper to process, weird thing is when playing through the phones speaker it works fine and processes with viper, the issue is when I connect to my bluetooth speaker, youtube music works fine but with either of these streaming apps, I need to use compatibility mode to get viper to work, not sure if it a bug or an issue with the alpha nature of the RE version, I tried flashing the Android compatibility patch 2.5 like I had to do on my pixel 4a before to get viper to work with all the streaming apps but hasn't helped, anybody any ideas or how is the RE version working for them ? the other thing I have never been able to get Viper to work with is android auto although it works fine when connected to my car via bluetooth, just not android auto

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I have a Pixel 4a 4G but its running the 64b beta version.
[Android Apps and Games] bombadier:
Yeah still got my pixel 4a 4g I am using the regular version of viper with it, working in compatibility mode with all apps, looks like with the RE version still need to use compatibility
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I don't use compatibility mode. I could be wrong, but I think that even stops it working from memory.

I don't have any other Magisk sound mods. Such as AML or whatever its called.

It worked straight out of the box. "It" being the 64b version.

One thing that may be a carry over from my previous phone, is that I have a boot script with some SElinux allows, but they are all well known and documented, nothing special. They may even already be in the new Module, I have not checked.
[Android Apps and Games] bombadier:
May try installing the 64-bit version on the 4a then, when i installed viper it was messy to get the driver installed and had to Flash the acp to get all streaming apps working, with the Pixel 7a the RE version was a breeze to install no need for acp but I can only get it working on all apps in compatibility mode, will need to check what apps on the pixel 4a work with compatibility mode turned off

Have you ever managed to get viper processing in android auto? Never managed which means I don't use aa
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I dont use streaming services or Viper Auto. I cant remember if it works on YouTube; its not my daily, and I generally dont view youtube on the phone.

But it most certainly does in my Music player as I use that as my Car audio (ie headphone socket) and over the device speakers

I know this thread is very old but is there a possibility to get this version installed on a rooted version of Windows Subsystem for Android running Android 13?

I'm using this - https://github.com/LSPosed/MagiskOnWSALocal

Please let me know your thoughts, I've used V4A back in the days and is the best equalizer for Android in the world for me :)
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Sithek:
Yes, it's possible, I had that installed on my WSA. But honestly, I've got better results with Viper4Windows
[Android Apps and Games] Techguy777:
I have windows 11 WSA magisk delta and I have flashed every viper package and the problem is you can press volume select keys for picking what you want. So the only version that will install is viper4android repackaged and it even works. Only 1 problem it wont switch to bluetooth, or headphones to unlock the options. But it does work and thats what's important because the creator needs to allow us to toggle manually speaker, Bluetooth and headset. So I agree viper4windows is better at the moment. However viper4windows will not play through my bluetooth either on windows 11. On windows 10 it worked with APO equalizer installed. It's really unfortunate cuz I think Windows 11's a lot better.
[Android Apps and Games] oldman20:
Link please!
[Android Apps and Games] Techguy777:
Viper4windows needs to be installed as administrator and then APO equalizer after you install viper4windows. Viper 1.05 is the newest. There are also patches for Windows if it doesn't work use YouTube but 1.05 and APO equalizer works for me on Windows 10 in Windows 11, better than the patches

[Android Apps and Games] oldman20:
Thank so much, but APO is what? Need both them installed?
[Android Apps and Games] Techguy777:
It's an equalizer program just like viper4windows is and it makes viper4windows work. If you install viper4windows without it you probably won't get it working. I have never used APO equalizer on it's own I doubt it is as good. I just install it after viper4windows to get viper to work. There are videos on YouTube that show how to do it
[Android Apps and Games] oldman20:
Thank i got it. Also can u give that video?
[Android Apps and Games] jamesta:
Here are the files needed for Viper4Windows, you can follow this youtube link, that's how I installed it for Windows 11. Works great, no APO needed.

Hopefully this helps

I like Viper4Windows but I am not pleased with the UI.

I love Viper4Android and it's UI better, that's why I had to find a way to get it to work with WSA, which I did.

If anyone is interested, this is the Magisk Module/Version that is currently working with Windows Subsystem for Android on Windows 11 using rooted Android 13 - ViPER4Android-RE v0.5.0 - Hi, ViPER DDC :)
[Android Apps and Games] jamesta:
How were you able to get the Repackaged version to install/work on WSA - Android 13?

I tried using this Module/Version - ViPER4AndroidRepackaged, the module installed fine on Magisk. When I opened V4A app in WSA, it says the driver was missing, so I clicked on "ok" so it can install the driver and it kept "freezing" on 22%, 2/9 "Installing module" - See attached screenshot.

Currently using Magisk 26.1 (26100)

If there any difference between the Repackaged version and this version?

Your help is much appreciated, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Techguy777:
I'm using magisk delta Canary WSA. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Magisk delta works so much better for sound mods are better on magisk delta even on my phone.

I have busy box magisk 1.36

Selinux Permissive magisk module

The latest viper repackaged now but I used the old one to before yesterday's came out

The other viper 2.7.21 did the same thing until I found viper repackaged

Viper4windows does work way better for speakers. I was hoping Bluetooth would play through and give me all the features specifically headphones around sound clarity. Dynamic system base but it doesn't switch to Bluetooth. It stays on speaker no matter what you do and you don't get much of anything except a little gain boost. If you find out the way to use the volume selectors when you install modules. Let me know. If you find a way to get viper to play through the Bluetooth, let me know

I say this everywhere now. Xda sucks when it comes to finding answers or help. Everyone has looked on Google and gets lead to XDA only to hear from members before you asked you should have already googled it. That's the reason we landed here because you googled it.

Don't feel intimidated if you believe you can help someone but you don't want to say anything because you might be wrong and don't want to look foolish. Just say it because a little secret most of the developers on XDA aren't real developers. They do GitHub and Linux stuff but for the most part they just build ROMs and kernels from source code by online guides. Some are really good at it but the reason they don't answer questions people have is because they don't know the answer. They just don't want to look stupid even though they want for saying they don't know. So they'll tell you Google it noob.

Everyone should try to help someone when they can.
[Android Apps and Games] jamesta:
Thank you very much, I was able to get it installed and working :)

The Repackaged version seems to be missing some major sections such as "Differential surround", "Viper Bass" Viper Clarity", "Field surround" and others.

I appreciate your feedback and help on providing the details.
[Android Apps and Games] Techguy777:
It's because it's playing through the speakers option even if you use Bluetooth. It's like if you installed it into your phone and used it through your speakers and not headphones are Bluetooth. You would see those options because you really can't do much with speakers. That was my point. That was why I was saying. If you can figure out a way to get it to switch I'd appreciate it. I am no idea I've tried everything.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Sithek:
I used to do that with the help of Lesser Audio Switch app. It may require to flash Magisk module if WSA operates on A11+
[Android Apps and Games] dooshbagel:
I recently reinstalled Magisk and, naturally, had to reinstall V4A too. The route I'd used before (Audio Modification Library + Audio Compatibility Patch + latest regular V4A magisk module) didn't work now - the audio wasn't going through and none of my old presets were being detected.

Installing V4A-Repackaged *did* fix the audio going through - however, my old presets still weren't being detected. New presets made from within the app do show up (both within the app and in the correct folder location), but adding any files to that folder does nothing. I doubted it was a conversion issue (given that I'd been using the latest version of V4A before, and also since the V4A-Repackaged installer has a converter built into it). Nevertheless, I also tried running Zackptg5's converter manually, but it found no old files to convert.

How do I make my old presets work? I can see pretty much no real difference between the old XML preset files and the new XML files the app makes. Is it some sort of invisible formatting issue? Because I even tried pasting the contents of one the 'old' XML files into one of the 'new' XML files, but then it just disappeared from the list.

---

Edit: Christ, I just had to *plug in* my earphones in order for their compatible presets to show up in the list again. They're all still there.
[Android Apps and Games] oldman20:
Mine case working but only for headset or bluetooth device
[Android Apps and Games] jamesta:
If you install this version - https://github.com/AndroidAudioMods/ViPER4Android/releases/tag/v0.5.0

There are many more FX options/sections available such as ViPER Clarity, ViPER Bass.. etc

And this is working through my regular headphones plugged into my laptop.

Where as those features are hidden in the Repacked version even with headphones plugged into laptop.

I'm wondering what the Repackaged version is doing differently?

I tried looking up Bluetooth support for WSA and seem it hasn't been rolled out yet 🙁 hopefully in the future. I'll have to look into this Lesser Audio Switch 🤔 interesting

I assume it's working for your Bluetooth because you're on a smartphone? 😁
[Android Apps and Games] Techguy777:
I know about RE 64 bit version I already had that installed to. My settings are gain maxed, headphones around sound level three, dynamic system high-end headphones 20%, clarity 12 to 14 DB for Bluetooth headphones. The problem is with headphone surround sound it doesn't really make it sound great. Viper4android is really an all or nothing deal for me. Turning on clarity and bass doesn't give me a wonderful sound. But I appreciate you letting me know in case I didn't know.

Can someone tell me where I can download version 2.7.2.1 of this app? I can't seem to find it. TIA
[Android Apps and Games] bombadier:
https://github.com/programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged this is the installer that most people use, if you just need the app then extract it from the zip file
[Android Apps and Games] bird333:
Thanks. Can I just use the .apk to install? That zip file is pretty big. Do you know what all that stuff is?
[Android Apps and Games] bombadier:
If its just the apk you can get it from the github page i linked to, so no need to download the full zip, the zip is big because it comes with all the dcc headphone correction files, if you read the github page it explains whats all included, depending on your device/rom, sometimes it can be tricky to install the driver for viper and to get it to process with streaming apps, i would advise downloading the zip and installing viper as per the instructions
[Android Apps and Games] luy0:
This worked to fix the Processing: No issue but in 2.7.2.1 there is no "session" option, instead, activating "Compatibility mode" made the job.

Soooooo many different Viper threads, so apologies if this is not the place to ask,

On my current daily, a Pixel 4A running crDroid A13, I am successfully running 64b Viper. It works over Speaker, Wired, Bluetooth. I am thinking of upgrading to a Pixel 5, which does NOT have a headphone jack and thats what I use to plug into my car; my main use of Viper. I have looked and found some pretty impressive USB-C to headphone jack plugs, but am not sure how they will work with Viper? What do theyt6 appear as? (ie Speaker, Headphone Bluetooth or something else?)

Anyone currently running this setup? Successfully? Viper is pretty much a deal-breaker for me, and is why I went with a Pixel 4A, as it had the headphone jack.

Hey guys, I discovered viper4android just a few days ago and my mind was blown when I heard how much better my crappy old earbuds sound with this thing enabled! The only thing that is a bit annoying is that when I enable the "convolver" it introduces quite a bit of lag (500ms or so). It's not a problem when listening to music only, but it's quite irritating when watching any kind of video. Is it normal? I would like to keep the convolver on since I found a preset that sounds really good, but maybe it's inevitable that it lags this much?

I tried using that zip installer but when I open the app it just hangs on "installing Magisk module" 22% 2/9. Am I installing wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] bombadier:
How did you try and install? Did you flash the zip from within magisk? That should be all you need to do, the installer does it all, or are you saying when you flash the zip in magisk the install is hanging? See if there is a magisk log that may have some further information
[Android Apps and Games] oso2spot:
Thanks for the help. I install the zip within Magisk, reboot, then open the app. It's within the app (that the zip module installs) that this occurs. When opening the app it says drivers are not installed and it needs to install them.

It could be that I'm on Android 14, not sure if something would need to change to be compatible with that
