Hi everybody. I recently went back from Pie Resurrection Remix on mido to Nougat Xiaomi.eu and installed Viper4android 2.7. I converted my profiles through the tool from Zackptg5. Surprisingly, Viper works excellent (I couldn't get it work on Pie roms), but from time to time strange thing happens to my profiles... They just disappear from the Viper folder on the internal storage and I have to copy them again. When that happened to me for the first time I assumed it's accidental, but second time - it's obvious that it must have a reason. But I have no idea what might be the cause... Any hint? I'd be grateful :)

I haven't figured out how to get the new version to work with Android Auto. I think it needs to have the compatible option to work.
[Android Apps and Games] AliMusa:
This is my main use for V4A so I really hope this gets figured out soon
[Android Apps and Games] imna357:
Android Q Beta 2 working, PIXEL 2XL, what I did is install the viper4 on magisk reboot, open viper4android and says install driver just press yes, reboot uninstall reboot install the viper4android on XDA, install driver it will reboot by itself...after booting install the ACP press no then yes, press no again then yes reboot, try opening the viper4android and it will not prompt again on the drivers, but processing NO, install AML reboot and then work on my end. It may vary on your end, but been trying to figure this thing out on ANDROID Q and now it workssss=) LOVED IT

thank you all guyssssssssssssss... Yahoooooooooooooo... i got viper4android working/processing..........

but it took a-lot of energy of mine. and so far i am unable to understand the issue.

I think the OEM patch i was flashing was the reason maybe.

what i did now for other reference.

1. Flash stock rom

2. flash twrp with odin and wipe data to mount the data

3. get the dm verity no encrypton v6 and flash it

3. flash magisk latest v18.1 and then reboot to system and flash latest magisk manager apk

4. install v4a v2.7 apk and let it install the drivers.

5. install Audio Compatibility patch in magisk and before rebooting install audio compatibility patch and then reboot.

6. in my case after rebooting neither any driver error poped-up nor he asked for reinstalling but driver status was all no.

7. i just rebooted the system and then got viper4android working on the next boot.

8. take the nandroid backup and safe it. as by flashing any other mod there can be issue. in that case you can flash it back.

regards

P.S. thanked for all helping posts.

Haha I am totally with you the usb audio really needs an eq.

It's very strange you can't change it somewhere.

V4A needs proper usb audio EQ on Android Auto.

Is there any possibility with the new version of forcing the use of the headphone profile instead of the speakers, as in previous versions ?? I need to have the headset profile active for my Android car radio, because the headphones have more speaker settings
[Android Apps and Games] JJEgan:
Make a headphone profile as speaker profile.
[Android Apps and Games] AndrzejDwo:
Hi guys! I'd like to thank you for your work, the app is brilliant! But I have one question, is it possible to add main on/off switch? Because when I turn off the master limiter, effects does turn off but there is still notification about V4A processing, so it's still running in the background. The thing is that I would like to turn off whole app when I'm not using it, within a switch instead of force closing it.

I'm not sure if it was already answered, I used search but didn't find anything.

Thanks a lot

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] Joe199799:
No problem dude happy you finally got it working

---------- Post added at 07:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

I don't think it's possible due to the multiple things you can do for headphones compared to the phone speaker

Any advice please?

Yes its been like that since day one on V4A.

Try another sound mod.

[Android Apps and Games] lollilol:
doesnt work, need help. seriously.

Ive nearly tried everything. I have a Mi A2, converted to Mi 6X with Magisk, and everything works perfectly, except V4A.

I first tried the one from Magisk Repo. Just flashed it and Vol + on everything but without the 2 fixes. Didnt work. Tried with the 2 fixes. Didnt work. (both, Processing: No)

I googled and found this thread. Downloaded the apk from xda-labs and removed the magisk module and installed the apk. Opened the app from the app drawer and it said "no driver found", i clicked "okay" but the app crashed. I rebooted and it said again: "No driver found".

I asked in my "Mi A2/6X" Group and someone said to me "try it with permissive kernel". My SELinux status was "enforcing". I used the zip and flashed it in TWRP. Now my SELinux status says permissive. Restarted installing V4A from scratch so i removed the magisk module (that got installed) and installed the apk. Same problem. The driver just wont install. I normally dont write "help posts" like this one, but i just dont know what to do next. So, developer or anyone else: If you have time, please help me. The whole Mi A2 group has the same problem.

Edit: This is the log when the v4a from xda-labs crashes: "htt ps://del.dog/ekuqezunis.css" just remove the spacebar, cant post links yet.
[Android Apps and Games] mp3deviant721:
Hey guys. So this app is working great for me. Only issue is that none of the music apps I have installed claim they can't find V4A as the installed system equalizer. Does this app need to be installed on /system in order for it to be detected as the system equalizer? Or is this a bug? Not really a deal breaker, I'm just curious.
[Android Apps and Games] DanGLES3:
It's a bug, version 2.7 doesn't have the code in the manifest that tells the system it's an equalizer
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
One of the things that I originally kept forgetting to do on fresh ROM flashes, is to ensure there are no other sound mods installed. eg another equalizer
[Android Apps and Games] rdcdt:

ViPER4Android compatibility with Magisk v19?

Is the integrated module for this app compatible with the latest Magisk version? I wanted to ask before I upgraded from v18.1.

How do I keep viper4android open at all times?
[Android Apps and Games] Joe199799:
Try installing audio compatibility patch (ACP) and audio modification library (AML) they are magisk modules.

there's options for ACP or AML whichever does the volume inputs you will know what I'm talking about

The first one say no

The one for USB dacs I said yes because my 6T doesn't have a headphone jack

Then there's the one for notification remover I said yes to that as well

Steps I used recently to install a stereo sound mod

I uninstalled all audio mods so viper AML and ACP (from magisk)

Reboot

Install viper

Reboot

Install ACP (don't reboot)

Finally install AML (AML should say it found viper4android and that it's patching it)

Reboot

After I booted up I ran viper and Spotify and was getting no processing kept trying and kept getting no processing so I turned off master limiter on viper and forced stopped viper and Spotify then I opened Spotify and started playing a song then I opened viper and turned on master limiter and now it's processing.

Question, how do you manage Viper with the in-built EQ you have on your V30?, I was thinking that the sound is amazing by itself on your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] stankyou:
Magisk 19 stable is out which means the next version is going out soon.
[Android Apps and Games] Team_DeWitt:
2.7.1.0 released

Yay it's finally time to release an update

And with this release come a few important release notes:

Support for Magisk prior to v19 is dropped.

If you did not use magisk, you need to reflash your /system partition and reinstall the driver

An audio attach setting is added too to improve compatibility and it needs some explanation:

For every time you play a song, the audio player should send information about what session the audio is played on, so equalizer apps can attach to that session.

Session 0 is the default but deprecated session. Most of the time V4A processes just fine at session 0, but if it doesn't you can enable this switch and Viper will attach to other sessions. Note that if you don't have any session open, the driver status will say abnormal, which makes sense.

There is the need for a switch, because in a lot of cases audio players do NOT send the information when a session is closed. So they keep the driver occupied and this mutes all other audio streams, including session 0 which is the fallback session.

To make this problem a bit less bad, I excluded session 0. But when you still run into this problem, the solution is not to kill viper but to kill the audio app that was playing music previously.

Bad design, I know. But it's not my fault. You should contact the developer of the music app to fix their crappy code and send a broadcast when audio playback stops/pauses.

This switch makes ACP obsolete.

Other things that have improved:

I've seen multiple issues with android pie where the viper library wasn't detected any longer because a dependency is removed since the update. A workaround is shipped in the new release.

The compatibility mode switch has been added back. This seems to be mandatory for car mode and some android q builds.

An issue when loading presets has been resolved

So everything appeared to be working - shows "Supported", but can't get it to process. Tried Poweramp, YouTube Music and Google Play Music.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Audio Compatibility Mod did not fix it. But maybe I didn't use the right settings. Just chose the "Volume +" setting throughout setup.

EDIT 2: Audio Modification Library got it working, not Audio Compatibility Mod (listed in the OP). Works great now and love Love LOVE the new UI!

[Android Apps and Games] carloshdez:
There is no way to have a better sound than with viper. Just a minor adjustments (dynamic system on with common earphones profile and a little bit of viper bass) and there is nothing like that deep sound, simply incredible.

The inbuilt EQ is ****, sorry.

Viper and hi-fi are working together. Although I don't have top earphones, so I can't really notice the effect of the quad dac.

And I mostly use Bluetooth earphones, so no dac possible.

Getting "no driver found" on op3t with havoc 2.4 and magisk 19.1. Tried installing the driver twice already.

Uninstalled previous version and ACP too. Reboot. And then installed latest version.

Any idea why this behaviour?
[Android Apps and Games] shouk_1987:
Awesome dude you rocks

Now I have tried and the sessions button is better to be off for my case which is the default as if it is on, clearing a music app and openning the other will not trigger the processing again

Now if anyone can help me on my main issue it would be great

I want to remove whatsapp from viper processing at all

As when I play a voice note and minimize it or lock the screen the sound stutter and cracks

But when music is playing and viper already processes it then channel is already occupied and whatsapp voice note works normally

How can I remove whatsapp from processing viper completely ??
[Android Apps and Games] Team_DeWitt:
A dark theme is included, but for a black theme I suggest to make your own substratum theme or something.

run this in a terminal: settings put secure ui_night_mode 2

and reboot

The dark theme is just an addition to blend in with the system theme. I don't want to include the switch because if you uninstall v4a, this setting is still enabled. This is weird behaviour for an average Joe.

I'm working on some extra stuff but I'll release another update with updated translation fairly soon

run su -c killall -q audioserver in a terminal. I'll add this in next update if the driver is not found but installed nonetheless.
[Android Apps and Games] grimmaniac:
Would it be possible (and not too much hassle) to have an option to select the in-app language manually? After 5+ years in English using a localised version feels off/wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] MrBrady:
This works and definitely helps when running Swift Dark systemwide. Is this terminal command the same as opening Developer Options and setting Night mode to: Always on?
[Android Apps and Games] ZeroPointMax:
Thank you very much!

I found a "glitch" in the German translation. It might be better to call it "Lautstärkeanpassung" instead ^^

[Android Apps and Games] QUBiCA:
When? I tried running this before opening the app, and nothing happened, then closed the app, ran it again, the driver install message popped up, did it, and again nothing.

I'm on OP 3T with OOS 9 (Android 9) and Magisk 19.1. Stock everuthing aside from that. I did remove the Dirac service, it's some other audio service, I used to have to remove that when I still used the "stock" V4A 2.3.4.0.

Thanks for the great work! It worked perfectly fine on the previous version of OOS on my phone

Did you try changing audio session in v4a settings?

What happened there is that AML removed output_session_processing for music which negates the whole audio session thing but isn't ideal. It's best to just toggle the audio session option in v4a instead
[Android Apps and Games] MrBrady:
I think I tried that with Viper by itself, but not with the AC mod, but will do it again for good measure. Are you suggesting I install Viper, then the Audio Compatibility mod, then toggle the audio session option?

What options do you suggest when installing the AC mod?
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
No, I was suggesting that toggling the audio session could fix the problem you were having without the need for aml. There's no need for AC mod with latest v4a apk. But if you're current setup works, then that's fine too :)
[Android Apps and Games] MrBrady:
Oh, gotcha. Yes, that does work! It didn't work previously when I simply toggled the setting, but once I toggled and rebooted, it works without any additional mods. Thanks for the advice!
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
No problem! You'll find that you'll need to toggle that frequently - session 0 is deprecated but some audio apps still use it for some reason or the audio app won't close session properly when it exits which messes with things.

Crappy coding on the part of those app devs :/

Why old driver ?

I moved from Original mod v.2.5.0.5 to v2.7.1.0 today. It seems like the driver version is v2.5.0.4, feels like a downgrade from the driver I used previously (v.2.5.0.5 by Viper Acoustic).

Is it only the app got updated to 2.7, or the driver is still work in progress; updated in successive versions ?

Please reply, so i can decide whether to go back to the other version, because the effects where even stronger (I uses recommended settings from Viper4Android page). Thanks in advance. :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] castrum_doloris:
The driver hasn't been updated for years (and probably won't be updated ever)

Therefore V4A 2.7 uses exactly the same driver (2.5.0.4) as V4A 2.5 and should sound exactly the same.

Either smth is not working right (eg. profile got not correctly loaded) or you're suffering from placebo effect
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
It's the same driver.....

That's called placebo effect
