Just thought I'd update this: profiles built on anything older than 2.7 don't work with 2.7. Tried installing an older version to test them but couldn't get the driver installed for *any older version. Tried using the profile converter but couldn't figure it out :( (help or a guide would be useful if you know how to do it?)

So I removed all v4a related things and rebooted.

Clean install of 2.7.1.0 .apk

Android Compatibility Patch Magisk Module

Placed .irs files in /V4A/Kernel

Placed .vdc files in /V4A/DDC

Built my own profile(s) in V4A.

And bingo. Awesome sounding audio via Spotify, YouTube and VLC.

<Cartman's voice> I'm seriously you guys!

I've currently only got a pair of old app*e buds (I know), and some £20 Bluetooth buds and they both sound upwards of £100. It's unfathomable how good they sound. I'm saving for a decent-ish pair of overears (prob only have £150-200 if anyone can recommend?).

I can link a folder of all the files I used later tonight if anyone wants/needs it
[Android Apps and Games] Joe199799:
The converter works I know it requires flashing the converter but I'm not sure on where you place the preset files so when you flash it it converts them it's been a while.
[Android Apps and Games] captain sideways:
Wasn't going to bother but got your reply and had another look at it.

Created folder /VIPER4/Android/Profile

and put the old profiles in there, flashed the converter module and it converted them. Then I copied them to /VIPER4Android/Preset but when I click "load" in v4a it just closes the whole app. Feel like I'm missing something simple but I'll persevere for now ?

Edit: perseverance paid of! All sorted, see next post for link if interested.
[Android Apps and Games] captain sideways:
Here's my folder of . vdc .irs and presets for v4a 2.7. Unzip and copy the contents of each individual folder into your existing v4a folders. Hopefully this will save you a lot of the issues I ran into getting this set up. I will say though it's been the most worthwhile effort I've ever spent on Android ??.

Enjoy

I am asking again: How to do an OTA when V4A 2.7.1 is installed?

If I want to perform an OTA Android update

I normally do the following:

1) Fetch the new boot.img from the fastboot or recovery zip file.

2) Disable all Magisk modules (including the Viper4Android 4.4 legacy module)

3) Uninstall Magisk

4) Reboot

5) Perform the OTA Android update

6) Patch the boot.img in Magisk manager.

7) Boot via fastboot using the patched boot.img

8) Install Magisk again

9) Enable all Magisk modules again (including the Viper4Android 4.4 legacy module)

Can I do the same when I use Viper4Android 2.7.1???

Or should I also uninstall the V4A app and or Magisk module before doing the OTA update?

I am asking because I had problems with Magisk when I used V4A 2.7.1 i.s.o. V4A 4.4.

Magisk wasn't installed after step 7.

And the SafetyNet check failed (ctsProfile:false).

I fail to get this solution working on a Pocophone F1, ROM: EU MIUI 11 (xiaomi.eu_multi_POCOF1_V11.0.6.0.QEJMIXM_v11-10).

Here are my steps:

Install ViPER4Android FX 2.7.1.0

Install drivers, and let the ViPER app automatically 'reboot'

Device goes in bootloop

Restart to recovery (vol up + lock button)

Move post-fs-data.sh and sepolicy.rule from external sd card into: data/adb/modules/viper4androidfx

Reboot to system (successfully)

Open ViPER app

I get the message: "drives not installed, do you want to install drivers?"

It seems that the drivers are not successfully installed... Anyone have a solution?:confused::(

[Android Apps and Games] MeetFace:
Have you guys installed the BusyBox module in Magisk?

[Android Apps and Games] helloyello:
I just performed an OTA update on LOS16 (Samsung S3 Neo) and after the first reboot, I launched ViPER4Android FX and it warned me that there is no driver installed and asked me if I want to install it, which I did. It installed the driver and rebooted automatically. After that I was able to use it and learned that the settings (my EQ setting & co) remained preserved.

Summary - the driver doesn't remain preserved after an OTA update on LOS16 and needs to be reinstalled - the ViPER4Android FX is doing that.

[Android Apps and Games] deroth:
Hey, so I did some more experimenting, and it's not just a cosmetic issue. It looks like the master power switch does not work on my phone. If I turn V4A off and then back on, the driver stops working. I have to unplug and re-plug the headphones (which I assume resets the driver) to get it back working. Driver status display shows 'not processing' 95% of the time regardless of whether it's actually working or not.

I know it's a rather vague description of the issue, if I can help with debugging let me know.

Solution: remove the % from the file name. The reason is explained over here: https://bradford.la/2013/android-sdk-unknownformatconversionexception

Weird one...

Running LOS 15.1 on Note 4

Upon installing any of the last few builds of the magisk viper module, each boot I see the Android Is Starting message, which causes a 5-10 second delay before unlock will respond and allow access to desktop

I have definitively tracked the error down to this module

Note: the error happens no matter if selinux is perm/enf...and viper does work just fine

I did search the thread with several search terms, but no hits

Anyone else have this, or know of resolution

[Android Apps and Games] Tom_Scott:
Hi folks,

I got a new phone "Moto X4" and I equipped it with LineageOS 16.0

and

MAGISK yesterday. This works fine for me so far.

Now I would like to install 'Viper4AndroidFX' and I have heared that this is very difficult with MAGISK and LineageOS. Do I'm right?

If yes, does there a step by step walkthrough how to install 'Viper4AndroidFX' with MAGISK and LineageOS 16.0?

Thanks

Tom
[Android Apps and Games] passtim:
Most of the problems seem to be with Android 10 (LineageOS 17). I'm on LineageOS 16, Moto G4, Magisk. I tried installing the Viper apk but couldn't get it to install the drivers. I then installed Viper and the Audio Modification Library modules via Magisk, and it worked.
[Android Apps and Games] Tom_Scott:
Ok, thanks. As I cannot install the driver and have to install a Magisk Lib instead I have some additional questions:

What are the installation steps in more detail? What did you install first? 'Viper.apk' or the Magisk 'Audio Modification Library' module?

Thanks

Tom
[Android Apps and Games] passtim:
I installed the Magisk module for the Audio Modification first, then viper.
[Android Apps and Games] Tom_Scott:
Ok. Only these both two steps?
[Android Apps and Games] passtim:
To get it to install, yes.

Once all installed I ran it, and turned on 'master limiter'. I also disabled battery optimisation on viper to try to improve sound on bluetooth.

Thanks

This is my modified procedure, it installs V4A and gives you louder volume.

[Android Apps and Games] Tom_Scott:
Ah, ok. So this seems to be a misunderstanding. I thought the module you mentioned is a full Viper4Android application shipped as Magisk module.

Thank you

Tom
[Android Apps and Games] ultradj83:
If I remember, it exists as module in the Magisk repository but, at least on my S10+ with Android Q, it doesn't work.

The apk itself should install the module on 1st run.

You might have to also use the audio library module, in case just follow the guide I sent you.
[Android Apps and Games] Tom_Scott:
You have sent a guide to me? I found nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] ultradj83:
The pdf in the zip.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
The Magisk module is created by the APK, when you install it. Download and install the APK, the install prompts will take you through the steps, and automatically create the Magisk Module on the fly.
[Android Apps and Games] Tom_Scott:
Ah, ok. Thanks, but I dont have a S10. I have a Moto X4 with LineageOS 16.0 based on Android 9. I think this zip you sent to me is not for me.

But maybe the steps described in the pdf are also valid for me and I have to look for another "Audio Library".

Now it is clear for me. Thanks

Thanks

Has anyone experienced issues with viper not working through phone speakers after being on Bluetooth? I will have viper working on my phone, connect to a Bluetooth device with viper active, and then when I disconnect and listen to audio through the phone speakers viper doesn't work. The drive shows as not processing too. I have to reboot my phone. This has been an issue for some time on different updates but I'm currently on a Google pixel 2xl with March 2020 Android 10 update, magisk stable 20.3, and viper 2.7.1.0.

Hi thread,

2.7.1.6 is now released. This release includes installer fixes for android 10/magisk 20.3 together with some more changes.

You can grab this release here on xda labs

Important thing to note is that starting from Android 10, external files used by V4A (presets, vdc and irs files) must now be placed in /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx/files/ instead of /ViPER4Android. The folder structure stays the same.

You need to toggle "attach audio effects" in the v4a settings if you get that message. Audio apps behavior is all over the place and so some use session 0 (old school) and some use any other session (newer apps). You need to toggle that every so often. AML removes music_helper entirely partially forces all apps to use session 0
