My setup is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 sm-t835, Android 9.0 Stock Malaysian rom successfully rooted with Magisk 19.1 by flashing the patched boot image.

Viper4Android FX 2.7.1.0 from XDA Labs does not work with my setup. The Magisk module shows as being installed in Magisk Manager. However it is not recognised by the app, even though it has root permission. I removed the module and uninstalled the apk. Then I discovered that I had lost wifi. I re-flashed the Malaysian rom using HOME_CSC_** to keep my data. I needed to power off at the prompt to wipe the device because it failed an integrity check, just prior to getting in to Download mode to install the Magisk patched boot image. I possibly didn't need to reflash because wifi was still not working. I asked the system to forget the credentials of my wifi and re-entered the credentials. I got wifi back. I guess I'll never know if I could have done that rather than re-flashing.

If you're interested here's the evidence that Magisk is working well to provide superuser in my setup:

I have Busybox for Android NDK 1.30.1 by osmOsis magisk module working well (checked it out in the terminal). I have GLTools magisk module working, giving me a frames per second counter and graph in the PUBG game.

Superuser (from Magisk) is working well with all the following apps:

Device info HW

Linux Deploy (you need to the user "root" when you install linux though which is a bit strange. An ordinary user can't use sudo to install programs.)

Solid Explorer

Terminal Emulator

Termux

Titanium Backup

I noticed that SELinuxModeInverter4Magisk-v1.0.6.0(v1900) does nothing ("gentenforce" always returns "Enforcing").

Cheers

Run

su -c killall -q audioserver

in a terminal.

Then Viper runs.

After rebooting it runs so you don't need to issue the terminal command again.

Wifi is working.

How to put secure in settings??
[Android Apps and Games] Sirius@15:
Sweet.. I toggled it on, after few hours suddenly driver version showed up (still not processing and status abnormal). Toggled off and everything working smooth.

Out of curiosity, was the command su -c killall -q audioserver necessary to make it work or is the toggle enough?

Thanks!! :good:

Guys, something's happening.

Tried 2.7.1.0 but it kept on saying no driver found.

Previously working with 2.7.0.0

Miui 10 beta 9.4.26, magisk root. Magisk 19.1
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
Check a few posts back for the killall command

It depends on the device honestly
[Android Apps and Games] kalpik:
I think I have the same with Waze.
[Android Apps and Games] Walker Street:
I spoke too soon.

Viper did not recognise the Magisk module again.

I had to run

su -c killall -q audioserver

again.

Then restarting viper worked.

So I think this needs to be incorporated in to the start up of viper so it works every time.

Thank you.

Just wanted to agree that this is FAR more than a GUI update; I struggled repeatedly with V4A, would go through that endless attempt to install drivers, followed every trick in the book that people suggested; sometimes they worked, sometimes not, but never past the next Oxygen update, and then I'd go through the whole process again.

This version installed correctly for me from the very beginning, and has survived two updates to Pie, and works extraordinarily well on my OnePlus 6T. Additionally, the dev is actually available! He can be approached here or on Telegram and he'll walk you through anything that isn't right.

I know others will have different results, but just wanted to make sure dev knows just how much his team's work is appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] AndrzejDwo:
Open terminal app (eg termux) and type:

$su

#settings put secure ui_night_mode 2

#reboot

Done! Works like a charm, just checked.

[Android Apps and Games] AndrzejDwo:
Hi guys, little question. Did you messed something with Viper module? Magisk is showing an update for Viper but when I try to install it I get the info that I have the same or newer version installed and so it's getting uninstalled. After reboot I had to install the driver once again. I have updated Viper with latest apk lately, so it's up to date. Take a look at the screenshots:
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
Ignore it, magisk module in repo is unrelated to the 2.7 app
[Android Apps and Games] a602820922:
Still can't install it on rooted Oukitel K10.

Deleting app
[Android Apps and Games] sinthemau:
In no way I was able to run Audio Mods with new Magisk 19.1: I tried V4A FX v2.5.0.5, Sauron and James.

Finally I tried to install the new 2.7 directly from Labs and...voila! That's it, it worked flawlessly at the first try so Viper bites again on my device with Pie and M 19.1

Just a question: now I see it as a Magisk Module installed;

For upcoming releases will I update it directly from Magisk Manager or need going out of MM

?

I'm very happy indeed, a big thanks to Devs

Cheers

Drivers probably won't never update again, just the app. Is the last version of the open source driver.

DVC and Viper

Hi again

Thanks for the app

I working with 2.5.0.5 not 6 or 7 cuase they dont work for us YET

And for 2.5.0.5

we should do a trick that we found it by our selves

here is

after install viper (2.5.0.5) by your app not magik module

driver install corectly

and AIMP music player installed

we go to AIMP and start a track

after that enable viper and nothing

we see driver status in sidebar

it said :

Driver Status

Driver Version : 2.5.0.4
NEON Enabled : Yes
Enabled : Yes
Status : Normal
Audio Format : Supported
Processing : NO
Sampling Rate : 48000

As you see everything work JUST processing

we do everything and test everything really everything

just one worked

we install poweramp music player after installed viper then we go to audio tweak and enable and again disable DVC in poweramp

TADA

music played and processing now changed to Yes and we can here some powerful bass

unfortunately after music pause we must enable and disable DVC in poweramp again

without poweramp's DVC we couldn't make processing work of course if we were viper dev we test other advace things too

so thank you for reading

if you can do anything its very good

I can even record screen for this

btw

I can do other things my phone rooted with magik so if i have to make any modification to audio_effect conf or miss any .so or lib.so files in our phones or any other programming solutions not hack or trick its really appreciated

i think there is some trigger in poweramp DVC that make processing to yes

why not just with tick option in viper itself :D

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] HerrT:
The drivers were never open source. That's the reason why only the app can be updated...
[Android Apps and Games] Nexus7_tilapia:
Hey

in AIMP go to settings/Sound/Output and set output to AudioTrack

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] AMS-H4K3R:
im going to test it

now my phone is not in my hand for now im outside

i will reply as soon as possible

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] AMS-H4K3R:
WOOO:victory::victory:

Thanks man

Really Thanks

At lease for those in other music players

If you install Viper on supported ROM and doing everything in a order place you miss nothing

Like us (3 dudes) we just need to know this Audio Track option in AIMP

so go to your players settings and play with them to get it done

THIS Viper is in stable phase almost

Thanks to our friend

:laugh:

Oh i forgot this

maybe in internet you see that you need some in /system/lib/soundfx or something like this

in some ROM first maybe its different

second maybe you dont need it at all like our phones we even dont have that folder in that directory

so dont copy any lib.so files or xml config anywhere without enough knowledge

we did and we pay the price for backups

CHEERS
[Android Apps and Games] marciozomb13:
So i misread?

I could swear the drivers were provided by Viper on Github for non-comercial use while the app is maintained by third party devs (like this one on thread).

Wanted to bump this to [MENTION=9073985]Team_DeWitt[/MENTION] it seems like I'm not alone with this issue. When enabled, the navigation audio from Google Maps Navigation and Waze don't play.

I'd REALLY like to find a solution for this since this implementation of Viper seems far superior to others. UI is polished and audio quality seems noticeably better. Wider soundstage and no background "hiss".

Hello i am always interested in 30 band equaliser that will be awesome :)
[Android Apps and Games] MrBrady:
I think I got it working now, sort of.

Connected to my car BT using Android Auto (phone version) selecting compatibility mode and attach audio effects, it reports Abnormal, but Navigation audio plays. Viper defifinately isn't processing effects but my stereo sounds good anyway so it's not a huge issue. Connecting to my BT headphones away from the car and it processes normal.

Should note this was after reading the notes on the last release about car mode. Also the audio I tried to play was through Castbox (podcast app), so that could be part of the reason for abnormal perhaps?

Will test further tomorrow.
[Android Apps and Games] Tyakrish:
Does this app support loading of external Profiles like the V4A 2.5.0.5 app ?

I'm running version 2.7

How can i fix this?

I've got a Nexus 6P running LineageOS 15.1
[Android Apps and Games] Joe199799:
If you have 2.7.0.1 (I think that's the newest version) install AML (audio modification library) within magisk. I would suggest uninstalling viper and reinstalling then install AML. If that doesn't work you could try installing ACP (audio compatibility patch) as well as AML but we shouldn't need ACP as of 2.7.0.1
[Android Apps and Games] sufy1000:
Thanks for this! it works now. I downloaded the audio modification library.

Greetings.

I have updated ViperFX from XDA Labs and I have lost the driver. Does not install.

LineageOS 16.0 (9 Pie)

So I have decided to install the Magisk version but, it connects to China.

Why is the Magisk module from Viper4AndroidFX connected to China?

::ffff:121.40.183.168:80
[Android Apps and Games] ★Michaelo★:
Because original Viper devs are from china
[Android Apps and Games] z3ki:
But, why do you connect to China, why do you need to connect to the internet?

The Viper4Android FX version of XDA Labs has never been connected to the internet when I used it.
[Android Apps and Games] SirRhor:
Can't you just block it with a Firewall or downgrade to the version that did not connect to China?
[Android Apps and Games] z3ki:
I suspect that it connects to a server in China to download the driver, but should not the driver be included in the zip?

The Magisk module version connects to the internet, China. I've also just checked that the official version that is in the download link of the official website does. The web of official download of the first post that is here.

I can block access to the Internet through a firewall, but I would like to know why the XDA Labs version does not connect to the internet and the official version here and Magisk do connect to the internet. To China.
[Android Apps and Games] VladAndreMano:
Will it affect the app if I just block the notification through the settings?
[Android Apps and Games] Lughnasadh:
Perfect! V4A stays alive after clearing recents. Thank you and very nice job :good:

As an aside, you know how on Oreo you can swipe the notification halfway and then it will give you an option to turn off the notification (among other things)? Well, I decided to turn off the notification for V4A and it still processes even when clearing recents :). This worked for me at least.
[Android Apps and Games] Team_DeWitt:
Great find, I'll add it to my post. Seems to work on Nougat as well
[Android Apps and Games] VladAndreMano:
I just did this to get rid of the notification.
[Android Apps and Games] NE0HP:
I did the same and it worked but after disabling the notification, one more pop up notifications appeared which says V4A consuming more batteries.. I don't know is this normal? I flashed latest magisk module v.1.6.6 of Zackptg5 on my Mido running Pixel Experience (8.1). For me, battery consuming notifications never appeared before on official v2.5.0.5 while flashed through all of Zackptg5 magisk module infact v4A app doesn't even appear under battery usage!
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
That's normal, a side effect of the notification
[Android Apps and Games] kopitalk:
Try messing up with other apps notification, then you'll know that it's considered as normal behavior in 8.1.
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
That's very intriguing considering I hear a "tremendous difference" in bass response between the two drivers when using the new material 2.6.0.4 version of Viper with the 2.3.4.0 driver delivering much more bass. The difference was not as obvious in older iterations of Viper.
[Android Apps and Games] yung40oz84:
Honestly, I can install the old material version and regular version with the 2.5 0.4 driver I think it is and it never dues when I open it or clear recents so I wouldn't say happens in all previous versions, lol. I was hoping the notification was a temporary hack ? back to original version I guess for now. Thanks for your development though, always!
[Android Apps and Games] yung40oz84:
I'm also curious about this? I've never gotten this notification on any version of viper.
[Android Apps and Games] yung40oz84:
One more thing... Why would viper use data??? I've never had this either or maybe I've not noticed, but there's nothing that viper needs days for correct?

EDIT: OK, so this I guess I just missed in the older versions.

I am still curious about the background battery usage notification and the statement regarding the service dying. I am running the old material version now and I can clear recents, reopen and clear over and over and it stays processing.
[Android Apps and Games] Amal Kunju:
How to use dolby with viper.viper shows no processing.
[Android Apps and Games] Team_DeWitt:
No idea why.. Unlike previous v4a versions, this one does not use internet at all.

Maybe it's google play services sending some information to their servers. Just guessing here.

Maybe you could catch the url in some way.
[Android Apps and Games] agplugged:
Anyone else experiencing lag in YouTube sound while V4A is processing? Made sure it wasn't a codec issue, it's definitely something in the app. Didn't have that problem till the newer version, probably because processing is now made global.

Yes, I experience the audio lag as well. Closing YouTube and reopening it fixes the problem temporarily.

[Android Apps and Games] DanGLES3:
The 2.7 version here on XDA were rewritten from scratch (with the exception of the driver),while the magisk one is still using the old app code that may still ping to the china server

For those who do not work the latest version of Viper4Android FX.

I have used this one since it came out in LineageOS 16.0 Android P. Until I updated to the latest version and the driver stopped working and was not installed.

For now, I have not seen this version of XDA Labs connect to the internet.

It is version 2.7.0.0

(I do not know if I can pass Viper's apk here, if I can not, tell me and I'll eliminate it)
[Android Apps and Games] z3ki:
Thanks

Then it is normal. No need to worry. Ok?
[Android Apps and Games] DanGLES3:
It doesn't connect to the internet because the 2.6 and the new 2.7 versions had the entire apps rewritten from scratch
[Android Apps and Games] stankyou:
Personally it's ok for me to have this app renamed to something different to avoid the confusion with the legacy app. Mamba4Android maybe? Lol.

Anyway, anyone else using Oneplus 5T got the app working and not stop processing in the middle of music playback?
[Android Apps and Games] DanGLES3:
Yes,if you don't trust the magisk versions because they ping to china feel free to use the XDA version

Latest 10.0.8.0 Magisk 19.1 patched_boot
[Android Apps and Games] agplugged:
My experience with 2.7.1 was an odd one, and I can't understand the reason for the update.

The session toggle behaves unpredictably - some apps use session 0, some don't, and switching between them makes for a rather unintuitive experience.

Also, while toggling the attach audio effects on, makes Viper lag after starting new sessions (like skipping songs, podcasts etc.), Which disrupts the whole listening experience.

Installing ACP solves this problem and makes the use of the toggle obsolete. I'd like to understand why the toggle operates the way to does and what's the idea behind it besides "not using ACP".

Compatibility mode also causes issues while using several sessions (such as a music player combined with GMaps or Waze).

Again - installing ACP solves these problems, as far as I can tell.
[Android Apps and Games] Joe199799:
Install AML (audio modification library) through magisk you should be good after that
[Android Apps and Games] Zackptg5:
The toggle exists because many music apps have crap code that don't use audio session properly or haven't been updated in years and still use deprecated session 0. It's not the vault of v4a but of those apps. It's the best solution that could be come up with unfortunately
