I just installed it using the Aroma installer. I chose Universal>Universal>Skip>Noozxoid. I'm using it in conjunction with Beats rather than in lieu of it. My Klipsch Image ONE Premiums have never sounded better. I HIGHLY recommend this installation for anyone. The work these folks have done is incredible.
*Note* the final window says you should not have any other DSP or equalizer installed. I had DSP Manager v2 installed and I let it install anyway. There were some conflicts and AC!D actually FC'd. I had to turn off all DSP Manager's options and disable it. I then rebooted and no issues afterwards.
****NOTE**** I take no credit for the original work. This is simply a port to the DNA. The original thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002367
Folks, install this now. Seriously.
12/27/12 UPDATE: Tonight I mistakenly found out why the installer says not to have any other DSP's installed and why when you go into Settings\Sound\Music effects it FC's. If you did the Aroma installer and followed my installation and look in your applications, you have a new icon called Noozxoide EIZO-rewire. This is their Jelly Bean DSP manager suggested in the installer. If you click Build-In Audio Monitor (supposed to be built, but they're German, so give them a break), you can FULLY manipulate your sound to your liking. I'm enjoying my headphones even more with these tweaks and I'm sure you will too!!! See new screenshots below.
12/28/12 Disregard. See instructions below.
12/29/12 UPDATE: Looking at the original AC!D post, I noticed that my installation was incomplete. Steps 9 and 10 involve a build.prop edit. I've successfully done it and I want you all to hear what I am.
******WARNING***** Follow these steps EXACTLY. If you do not, you could make your phone unbootable. I'm not responsible for any damage to your phone. With that said, let's get to it:
1) First, you need to be on any version of TWRP recovery and have adb installed.
2) We're going to make a backup of your original build.prop first. Put your phone in recovery and plug it into your PC. In TWRP select Mount and mount System. Go into a DOS prompt and type:
Code:
adb pull /system/build.prop C:\
3) Right click on build.prop and select copy. Paste right there in the root You should now have two files on your root like the fourth screenshot. Right click on build.prop and open with Notepad. Scroll to the bottom of the file and hit enter. On the new line, paste the following code:
Code:
###AC!D Sound Tweaks by R-ikfoot###

ro.semc.xloud.supported=true
persist.service.xloud.enable=1

persist.af.resampler.quality=255
#Beats Engine
htc.audio.swalt.enable=1
htc.audio.swalt.mingain=14512
(See the fifth screenshot.) Close Notepad saving your changes.
4) Now send the edited build.prop back to your phone. Go back into your DOS prompt and type:
Code:
adb push C:\build.prop /system/build.prop
4) ***If you don't this, your phone is unbootable*** Go back into TWRP and use the File Manager to navigate to the system folder and find build.prop (scroll all the way to the bottom.) Click it and press the Chmod 755 button. Swipe to confirm. Make sure you get a "Successful!" at the top. Go back to main menu of TWRP and reboot system.
5) Profit! (If you have an app like Root Explorer, you should see the build.prop looking like the sixth screenshot.)
12/29/12 SECOND UPDATE: If you use either one of DSB's kernels that enable system write, you can use several apps that allow you edit the build.prop while booted into Android. The confirmed list, so far, is
ES File Explorer: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en
Build Prop Editor: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor&hl=en
Root Explorer: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer
Directions for the Explorer apps:
1) Navigate to the system folder and mount it as Read/Write capable.
2) Make a backup copy of the build,prop
3) Navigate to this thread with your phone's browser and copy and paste the code from step 3 above at the end of the file. Save your changes and exit the app.
4) Do a full reboot and profit.
Directions for Build Prop Editor:
1) Fire up the app and hit the menu button. Select Backups and create a backup.
2) Go back into the menu and select edit...
2) Navigate to this thread with your phone's browser and copy and paste the code from step 3 above at the end of the file. Save your changes and exit the app.
3) Do a full reboot and profit.
1/3/13- There's a new build of Noozxoide DSP, but the Play Store says it's not compatible with our device. I've found it best to sideload it in recovery. Instructions:
1) Download the .apk from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36168124#post36168124
2) Put the .apk in the same folder as adb.exe.
2) Boot into recovery and mount system.
3) Type in:
Code:
adb install com.noozxoidelabs.eizo.rewirepro.apk
The install will complete with an error code, but it did install fine. Look in Settings\Apps\All and you should see new build number (see screenie #7)
*NOTE*-- For those of you that want to install the Walkman player, it specifically says in the OP of the Engine and the Aroma installer that you can NOT use the player with a DSP. Your installation in Aroma should be Universal, Universal, Walkman, Skip.
1/26/13- After some extensive testing (a LOT of flashing and restoring), I've come to the conclusion that the AC!D Engine either just doesn't work on our device or it doesn't work on any device. What I heard as a significant change in sound actually came from the Noozoxoide DSP and not from the Engine. A properly running Nooz sounds amazing combined with Beats on this phone. First, my test results (all v5 tests with proper build.prop edit. v7 supposedly doesn't need an edit):
AC!D v5 only: No change to sound
v5 with Walkman 5: No change
v5 with DSP Manager v2: Only DSP changes
v5 with Noozxoide DSP: Only Nooz changes
AC!D v7: phone boots, no changes to sound
AC!D v7 and Walkman v6: Phone won't boot into Android
v7 and DSP: DSP changes only
v7 and Nooz: Nooz changes only
The choice then becomes which DSP sounds better to you (DSP Manager v2 or Nooz.) I just sideloaded the latest version of Nooz (2.0.1.13) and I adjusted its settings to run with Beats. I don't think I could be happier with audio coming from this phone. Links:
flash v2.0.1.12 .zip installer with supporting files: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/68066384/HDSoundEngine_CWM_24Jan2013.zip
then sideload v2.0.1.13 with Root Explorer (etc): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/68066384/Noozxoide_EIZO-rewire__PRO_-_v2.0.1.13.apk

Tried to install it but after I changed the build.prop, saved, and rebooted, I couldn't find audio effects in sound settings. Checked build.prop again and the stuff I added wasn't there. Is yours still there?

I never changed my build.prop. My music effects is still there, but it FC's when I click it. I don't think they need to be modified anyway. Their default settings are amazing.

Just installed on my rooted stock ROM. Looks like it is working; have to go get my nice earphones in a bit to test it out.
Are you keeping beats and acid enabled at the same time, or turning beats off?

I'm getting fcs too when I click on music effects now. I don't think it's working properly because I don't hear a difference with it installed.

As you can see from my screenshot in the OP, I use them together. Beats ends up being a bass and volume boot and AC!D cleans everything up.

No idea how you can't hear the difference...

Maybe because it's not working for me. Lol. I'll have to play with it later to get settings to not force close, then maybe it'll work right.

Plug in your headphones and you should see this in your notification bar...

This is the best mod I've had the privilege to install thus far. Thanks for the tip and Bravo AC!D team. This rocks big time. 100% improvement. I was using Volume+ app and this free mod completely dusted it. Wow!!!

i can confirm the link does not work. Can you post the download link you used from the thread or fix the link?

That's very strange. Obviously a glitch on the xda side because that thread was 50+ pages. I uploaded the installers to my Dropbox. I used the Aroma installer and it works just fine (they said it was for 720p+ phones; which our phone is). They say the Universal driver works on any phone if you're not comfortable using Aroma. I take no credit for their creation:
Aroma installer: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/68066384/[AROMA]AC!DAudioEngine[v5.0]_signed.zip (57.9MB)
Universal driver: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/68066384/[Universal]AC!DAudioEngine[v5.0]_signed.zip (2.15MB)

Working fine for me.

I'd love to see a rom builder add this baked into his/her rom.

Instructions modified to prevent possible conflicts.

Or you could (as the original AC!D forum instructions suggest) add the lines in a text editor using a file explorer app after making a backup of your original build.prop file. I renamed my build.prop to build.prop.bak, copied it to a clipboard, added the lines from the AC!D forum in a text editor, renamed the modified file to build.prop and put it in /system folder then rebooted. The whole process took less than 5 minutes and worked entirely on device. I caution those of you who don't know what you are doing to use the OP's advice as that method is safer and you are connected to your PC if anything goes south. I'm just providing a simplified on device alternative. Thanks docnok63 for keeping this thread updated with advice and improvements as the sound enhancements are remarkable to say the least. I also used this on my HP TouchPad running CM9 and the difference is stunning. Highly recommend doing this, you won't regret it.
---------- Post added at 01:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 AM ----------
Docnok63, will using your build.prop file in place of whatever build.prop file is currently in use on one's device wipe out certain mods and ROM features or would you recommend using only the portion at the bottom provided by the AC!D team in their forum to add the enhancements? Just want to be sure people don't mess up their customizations after using your build.prop.working file in place of their own.

[MOD] Flash-aholicsTool 5.4.2012.0 - ICS and NFC Support

This is a windows based tool that I created to add things that I like to existing Gingerbread ROM's and to Hellraise I9100 Gingerbread ROM's (Samsung or CM7/MIUI/CM9 based) and I have decided to share it with you guys. One thing this is great for is flashing the updates of a ROM you use on a regular basis, I got sick of having to keep putting my custom init.d files (mostly that I would forget) and editing the Build.prop on the android was a pain in the butt so this tool helps me and hopefully you guys will find it useful too.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How it works:
1. First you select a ROM that you have downloaded using the button to the right of the "Selected ROM" textbox.
2. Select what options you want to do to the ROM (like adding systems apps, init.d files, and custom Build.prop parameters, or Hellraise it!)
3. Click "Build ROM" and the program then unzips the ROM, apply's the user selected options and rebuilds the zip file so it is ready for flashing.
4. Copy the zip file to your phone and flash away!
5. If your phone does not boot try these 3 things before giving up (one of these should get you going)
a. Flash the same zip again
b. Remake the ROM using a different kernel
c. Remake the ROM using a different modem (making sure you selected the modem from the right type)
6. Always remember to wipe cache and Dalvik, and factory reset if you are coming from a different ROM, just like always.
How to Hellraise:
1. First you select a ROM that you have downloaded using the button to the right of the "Selected ROM" textbox.
2. Check the "Hellraise the ROM" check box.
3. Select if it is an ICS ROM.
4. Select a kernel from the dropdown list of kernels (I have included the Kernel from CM7 and MIUI and also included latest Siyah)
5. Select a modem from the dropdown, being careful to select the modem type for the ROM you are Hellraising (You will see 2 lists in the above picture, 1 for Samsung based and one for CM7/MIUI.
6. Click "Build ROM" and the program then unzips the ROM, apply's the user selected options and rebuilds the zip file so it is ready for flashing.
7. Always remember to wipe cache and Dalvik, and factory reset if you are coming from a different ROM, just like always.
8. Copy the zip file to your phone and flash away!
How to remove device specific checks (this is what prevents some of the I9100 ROMS from installing on our phone:
1. Check the "Strip out device specific script calls" box
How to add Init.d files to the ROM:
1. Just click the one you want to add from the "Add Init.d Files" section so you see a check mark next to it, all files will be added to the ROM that have a check mark on them. WARNING: the loopy_smoothness init.d file contains some of my custom lines in it to work with MIUI, so if you are not using MIUI you will need to modify it!!!
2. To add your own Init.d items, navigate to the "Initd" sub directory for this program and copy your custom files to that folder (make sure there is no extention on the file name) and then restart the program and they will show up in the list.
How to add Build.prop items to the ROM:
1. Just click the one you want to add from the "Build.prop Mods" section so you see a check mark next to it, all files will be added to the ROM's build.prop file that have a check mark on them.
2. To add your own Build.prop items, navigate to the "BuildProp" sub directory for this program and copy your custom files to that folder (make sure you add ".build.prop" to the end of the file name) and then restart the program and they will show up in the list.
How to add System/App Files:
1. Just click the one you want to add from the "Add System/App Files" section so you see a check mark next to it, all files will be added to the ROM's System/App directory that have a check mark on them.
2. To add your own System apps, navigate to the "CustomSystemApps" sub directory for this program and copy your system apk's to that folder and then restart the program and they will show up in the list. I primarily use it for QuickOffice and CM7's camera.
How to append to the new zip file:
1. Just type something in the "Append This to New Zip" field. Make sure you don't use wierd characters that windows/phone wont understand.
Applying an MIUI theme:
1. Place your favorite MIUI theme (they are the files with .mtz extension in the "MIUI/Theme" directory on your internal sdcard) in the "MIUIThemes" subdirectory of my program to ge them to show in the list.
2. Select the one you want to apply to the ROM from the "MIUI Themes" selection dropdown and it will then be automatically applied to the ROM, its that easy!
Text Editor:
I have also included a text editor to edit scripts and Build.prop modifications so you can modify them anyway you want. Simply select a file from the list and then click the "Edit File" button to the right of the list (there is one for init.d files and one for Build.prop Mods).

2. Turkbey
3. MIUI.US
4. WIUI (see post #76 for special instructions)

Change Log:
5.4.2012.0
1. Added NFC support to options
2. Added a few new kernels and modems
3. Added option to import kernels and modems so you can update the list anytime you want (just click the appropriate import button, select a zip file with a modem or kernel in it, give it a name and BAM, you added it!
3.22.2012.0
1. Added ICS kernel from Fenny (works with most Sammy/AOKP/CM9)
2. Added on screen button enable/disable function (not that we need it know but I already added it)
3.3.2012.0
1. Added ICS kernels from Entropy and Myself to the package.
2.23.2012.0
1. Changed zip algorithm to try and help those stuborn ROM again (status 7 should be gone now). I verified that CheckROM v6 and miuiandroid.com ROM are now working.
2. Speed up zip/unzip process
3. The hang on building the zip file should be gone now too.
4. Added 2nd version of 3G tweeks for build.prop (got from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510532)
5. ICS ROM's seem to be working now too for the purpose of removing the device specific checks to get them to install.
2.17.2012.0
1. Added text editor for any file (on top menu under "File")
2. Changed "Build ROM" button to "Execute" and gives you 4 options (to give you guys alot of flexibility).
Full build from zip (same thing as the old "Build ROM" button)
Build zip file from "Build" directory
Extract ROM and apply options ONLY
Extract ROM ONLY
3. Changed the way kernel and modems are changed, seems to help some of the stuborn ROM's like MiuiDano.
2.16.2012.0
1. Added wifi fix in nvram_net.txt for those ROM's that need it.
2. Added checkbox to change device name to I777 for people that don't like seeing the I9100 and for market issues.
3. Change multi-threading routine to speed things up and hopefully fix the problem with the zip creation stalling.
4. Added 3 options for hellraising: GB-CM7/MIUI based (slimmed down hellraise), GB-Samsung Based (full hellraise), and ICS CM7/MIUI.
5. Create init.d directory automatically if you select any init.d files and it doesn't exist in the ROM.
6. Before unzipping this version if you plan to replace older version, delete all the directories beginning with "Replacements" then unzip and replace all files and folders.
2.15.2012
1. Added check mark for removal of device specific checks
2. Fixed init.d file copy errors.
3. Added ICS support, only tested AdyScorpiusMIUI v4 and stopped there cus I liked it. Just a few warnings, you will get no sound if you make a call and the USB stuff seems to be messed up so you won't be able to transfer files using USB once the ROM is on there and the hard button issue of course. Other than that, everything else is working including the face-unlock, ENJOY!
4. To get AdyScorpiusMIUI v4 to work, check the Hellraise button, check "This is an ICS ROM", pick the ICS kernel, and check the "Strip out device...". Thats it.
5. Always make a backup before flashing!!!
2.9.2012
1. Added applying your favorite MIUI theme (of course only use this option if you are working on an MIUI theme)
2. Tried to speed up the zipping portion a bit too
Quick list of ROM's put together thanks to this tool:
[ROM] Foxhound 3.0
[ROM] AdyScorpiusMIUI
[ROM] MIUI.us 2.2.17 | WIUI
[ROM] Turkbey V33
[ROM] CriskeloRom V38
[ROM] HydrOxyG3NMODV4
[ROM] HYDRAOSP

Cool idea. I'll definitely give this a try when its up.
seems awesome!!
I will be watching this with great anticipation.
Blackberry devs had something very similar to this, and it was awesome.
I cant wait to try it

No, that is what I am on too. Let me try v32 again. One more question, did you get a zip file in the "NewROM" sub folder of the program?
this did not hellraise miui.us

Nope just a temp file, tried with a new modem and still stuck.

It takes 34 seconds total on my 64 bit machine, about 2 minutes on my slower 32 bit laptop. I will recompile it a different way and re-upload it for you to try, I will reply to this again when the new version is up? In the mean time, try compatibility mode and also try another ROM for the fun of it.

In the mean time, try compatibility mode and also try another ROM for the fun of it.

[MOD] DSPManager for HTC One X+ [rooted] + AROMA flashable zip

Hi everybody,
I went to share with you this bass booster app that I had tested in my HOX+ rooted and international edition, and it worked perfectly with the stock music player and with other 3rd party player.
NOTE : "I DIDN'T MAKE THIS APP BUT IT IS PART OF THE CyanogenMod, so all the credit with a very special thanks to the CyanogenMod teams".
UPDATE: Here is a Flashable zip with AROMA (thanks to hukel56):
https://www.box.com/s/c2l52ej6cp408ibj9z56.
So what I really did in this mod was delete a file and did a little change to ported perfectly with our HOX+ devices without FC in the app or the players.
1. Must have a "root explorer" or any explorer that have root capabilities.
2. Copy DSPManager.apk
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gyp0mbie5tl5w29/DSPManager.apk
to system/app and set the permissions to 644 (rw-r-r--).
3. Copy libcyanogen-dsp.so
https://www.dropbox.com/s/h06u3jyrop5p19r/libcyanogen-dsp.so
to system/lib/soundfx and set permissions to 644 (rw-r-r--).
4. Copy audio_effects.conf
https://www.dropbox.com/s/wa2bffbzlu6fg9p/audio_effects.conf
to system/vendor/etc (if there is no etc folder there create it and set the folder permissions to 755 (rwxr-xr-x) then set the permissions of the conf file to 644 (rw-r-r--)).
5. Reboot to recovery, then wipe dalvik caches the reboot.
6. Enjoy the boost sound.

P.S I went some AT&T HOX+ or any other variant to test it and confirmed that it worked without FC (specially when change the preset or use a custom preset)
Thanks.
Finally very speciall thanks to CyanogenMod Teams and treebill.
please i'm very sorry and correct me if I forget someone that I must give the credit to.
Edit: this zip contains all the files above for those they have problems in downloading .conf file:

And this is the flashed zip file for dsp manager (all credits to treebill and cyanogenmod teams)
https://www.box.com/shared/bh99kwaqi9cn4thrvbqz
Flashed with recovery with nandroid backup before.
Sent from my HTC One X+
A quick thanks is always greatly appreciated!
this is awesome.. thanks a lot for sharing.. i just wanted this from a long time.. using Sense 4 on my HTC explorer.. and this works perfeclty.. great music
will test it in a minute.
for now: the conf-file has suffix .txt in your dropbox.
Update: Installed everything as in the manual, no effect at all. I can start DSP Manager and change settings but nothing happens (using PowerAmp, EQ in PowerAmp off as well as BEATS off). Tested with wired headset only.

Hi
You can change the suffix .txt to .conf and used it like the description in the OP above.
Or download this zip file (which contains all the files above):
https://www.box.com/shared/7251dziyoqbe5goparxv.
And for your problem, are you put all the files in the exact locations with changing their permissions.
And if you went to test it you can play a song with headset or with device speakers, then go to dsp manager and activate the corresponding then change the EQs so you will hear the different.

Exactly what I did, but no difference in sound no matter what settings I changed.
Whenever I change a setting it force closes and as soon as I open the music app it stops launching at all and immediately force closes not even allowing me to access the app. I am running the latest insertcoin rom for the regular international model what is the problem?

Hello
FC the app after changing in setting means that there is problems in permissions or you didn't put the lib file in the right place.
So now try to delete the 3 files (because they are addin to the system files not replacing any original system files), then reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik cashe then reboot, then repeat the steps in 1st OP exactly, reboot and see if there is always FC or not.
And another things: can you listing me the names of libs in your system/lib/soundfx folder to compared it with my folder.

Hello
Thanks for your reply,
Ok, can you do for me one last thing:
1. You must backup your original "system/etc/audio_effects.conf".
2. Download this zip file and extract the modified "audio_effects.conf".
https://www.box.com/shared/johj887e48djg11c4dop.
3. Copy/ paste and replace the original file in system/etc with setting its permissions to 644 (rw-r-r--).
4. Reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik cashe then reboot.and see if there is always FC

Hello this is the flashed zip file for dsp manager (all credits to treebill and cyanogenmod teams)

Flashed with recovery but you must do nandroid backup before.
So if the FC always present so i think the problem in your files system not in dsp manager files because i tested it in 3 different HOX+ int'l.
Good luck, and sorry if i don't have another solutions for your problem.

I will have a look. I know when editing the LGSystemUI to make it transparent, there were no changes. It may have a fallback color xml somewhere.

I am not 100% sure as I have the e450. you can use flash gordon with a locked bootloader and no recovery. you will need busybox in order for flash gordon to work as it translates the update script into a shell script. you can flash a custom boot.img.
I am not sure how you would do a full system backup.
you could try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771347
I cannot create a rom dump because my bootloader is locked. so for now I just use
adb pull /system C:\place\to\dump
then I look at what i am modifying and replace the files if I have problems

they are not on the play store because the developers have chosen to do it like that.
copying the system does not make a full backup. only a backup of your system files to get you out of a continual boot.
adb can be used if your phone cant boot depending on the circumstances. for instance you cannot use adb after doing a factory reset. I do not have your device so I cannot provide you with the correct information, i can only speak from experience.

[GUIDE] PowerAmp + Viper4Android on Lollipop

Just trying to redirect any search users into a global thread by creating this guide. I take no part in the development, just sharing a way that made it possible to have V4A working with Poweramp and MXplayer.
Download:
DropBox​
Prerequisites:
- Have root
- Must have selinux set to permissive.
- Do a nandroid backup.
Steps:
First method:
- Flash attached zip
- Go into Viper settings app
- Install required driver
- Go into poweramp -> settings -> audio -> advanced tweaks -> Disable DVT (Direct volume control)
- Reboot
Second (manual) method:
- Download attached zip, extract files
- Using any file explorer (ie: Rootexplorer), go into /system/Priv-app and create a folder called V4A or Viper4Android. Place ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x.apk in this folder. While the folder isn't actually necessary, it's cleaner than just leaving the .apk inside /priv-app/
- Go into /system/media/etc and do a backup of audio_policy.conf. Then, replace it using the file from the .zip.
- Reboot
- Go into Viper settings app
- Install required driver
- Go into poweramp -> settings -> audio -> advanced tweaks -> Disable DVT (Direct volume control)
- Reboot
Third (manual) method, which might work for other roms and even other phones:
- Download attached zip, extract files
- Using any file explorer (ie: Rootexplorer), go into /system/Priv-app and create a folder called V4A or Viper4Android. Place ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x.apk in this folder. While the folder isn't actually necessary, it's cleaner than just leaving the .apk inside /priv-app/
- Go into /system/media/etc and do a backup of audio_policy.conf
- Open up audio_policy.conf using a text editor, and delete the following code:
Code:
deep_buffer {
sampling_rates 44100|48000
channel_masks AUDIO_CHANNEL_OUT_STEREO
formats AUDIO_FORMAT_PCM_16_BIT
devices AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_SPEAKER|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_EARPIECE |AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_WIRED_HEADSET|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_W IRED_HEADPHONE|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_ALL_SCO|AUDIO_DEVI CE_OUT_AUX_DIGITAL|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_PROXY|AUDIO_DE VICE_OUT_ANLG_DOCK_HEADSET|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_FM|AUD IO_DEVICE_OUT_FM_TX
flags AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_DEEP_BUFFER
}
- Reboot
- Go into Viper settings app
- Install required driver
- Go into poweramp -> settings -> audio -> advanced tweaks -> Disable DVT (Direct volume control)
- Reboot
Extras:
Build.prop tweak:
While not necessary, this might be the solution if you can't get V4A working. I'm on an AOSP build (euphoria-OS) and this step was NOT necessary.
- Using any file explorer (ie: Rootexplorer), go into /system/ and locate the build.prop file
- I, personally, set the build.prop permissions to 0755 from the original 0644 to edit the file, save it and then revert back to 0644.
- Add the following lines at the very end
Code:
tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
lpa.releaselock=false
lpa.decode=false
Audio_effects.conf:
Previously needed, not anymore at the very least on AOSP. I'm posting this file in case it's necessary on stock roms.
Download audio_effects.conf
The only difference that I've made is update the audio_policy.conf file in order to make it compatible with V4A. The flashable zip was orignially provided by @donalberto17.
There is also a guide made by @dorimanx for LG G2 stock roms and V4A. While it's pretty complete, it was inside one of his kernel threads, and thus, out of sight for most users. I just wanted to make a bigger, more public thread about how to make V4A work with poweramp (nevermind lollipop).
Please let me know if I missed crediting somebody, as I take no part in development or creation of this, just recollecting information and trying to setup a nicely formatted thread.
Versions:
1.0 - Initial .zip
2.0 - Same zip without audio_effects.conf
3.0 - Updated audio_policy.conf from https://github.com/VanirAOSP/device_lge_g2-common/commit/dd3aa00ef250f6f405e675f685cd1f5909fa50f8, thanks to @sudosurootdev
I'll update a new flashable zip without audio_effects.conf, as this file doesn't seem to be necessary anymore in CAF roms. Could anyone confirm, maybe for stock as well?

In CAF rom, removing deep buffer from audio_policy is enough to do the trick!
Updated to v3, if your AOSP rom has this commit, you don't need to even flash the zip/update the .conf file, just add the .apk!
Would love to see whether it works on stock/ what the .conf file looks like from stock.
Didn't work for me
Hey,
i tried to flash this on the new CloudyG2 3.2 rom
now there's just weird noises from my phones speakers, the sound just just got ruined.
can you make a little tutorial on how to reverse the process?
Edit:
i've opened my rom's zip file and replaced the audio_policy and audio_effects files in the system/etc folder - that fixed it
but still, i can't uninstall the driver from withing the app. it pops up saying "driver uninstalled" but after reboot and checking it's still have the option to uninstall
any idea?
Wow! Thank you so much! I was about to revert back to kitkat from CloudyG2 v3.3 but then I found this and used the third method, it perfectly worked!

same here. I tried uninstalling in order to reinstall the highest quality viper4Android driver but it seems to reinstall itself after every reboot - or it didn't get uninstalled in the first place
Hi! I'm sorry....but what is this method for?
Using V4A with PowerAmp, or use it on (stock) Lollipop??
Tnx.

LG G3 Lollipop
Viper4Android is working with my LG G3 (stock lollipop rooted, SELinux permissive). At first it only worked with apps that open files (the stock player, relax and sleep, etc.), the deep buffer remover didn't help for streaming apps (xiia live, tunein, etc.), but unselecting process namespace separation in SuperSU did the trick. The same thing for Dolby Atmos. Finally!!!

After installing Viper4Android I just converted it to system app by using Link2SD app. Now by disabling Direct Volume Control from poweramp settings I am using V4A with Poweramp.
It's working on marhsmallow?

Anyone have a guide for how to install V4A?

Hi,
Trying to install Viper4Android to transfer my good Profile files from my old Lenovo P2 to this new Poco F1, but I am unable to get V4A to work. I've tried to flash using magisk modules, both as a system app and user app but nothing works.
It always says abnormal status for the driver and the EQ does not change (except I get that notification crackling sound that I found the fix for here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/sound-distortion-issue-fixed-custom-t3891118)
Anyone know what might be the issue and what I might do to make it work?
EDIT: Running LineageOS 16, latest nightly build
Never had any issue with viper.
Im on miui stable 10.2.3..
I just flashed the latest viper and viper x hifi.. with audio sound mod. Both are magisk modules.. and are working fine..
How I made it work on my poco with the new app by pittvandewitt and MrWhite214:
Install Viper4AndroidFX via Magisk - select new > material > system app > no lib workaround
Reboot - do not open Viper yet.
Download new Viper app from https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx
Rename the downloaded apk to ViPER4AndroidFX.apk (might be case sensitive, didn't test)
Delete the existing apk from /system/priv-app/ViPER4AndroidFX
Move new apk where the deleted one was
Reboot
Give Viper storage permissions
Enjoy
If you get crackling during notifications, install the Notification Helper Remover and select to remove the library. Don't install AML since that seems to break bluetooth, at least for me.
Thanks for the answers, I will try them on later today! Forgot to mention that I am on the latest build of LineageOS 16.

Well, that didnt work. Still "abnormal" status on driver
Ultimately tried to install too many times and corrupted my ROM so bluetooth and Wifi stopped working. Cleaninstalled my ROM now to try again if you have any other plan.

Always install viper4 android from this thread https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx
installing normally open request for root permissions then reboot automatically
maybe installing busybox NDK magisk will help you if u still have abnormal status hope that will help you solving your problem

sorry, forgot to mention that I run LineageOS 16 in the OP. Had a reply in a comment later that explained it but should add it in OP. I will try with busybox!
I've tried all different combinations explained in these threads without success...:

Ive tried both ACP and AML, which ruins the BT functionality. Ive tried to change SELinux to permissive. Ive tried removing/renaming the sound files in vendor/lib/soundfx and vendor/lib64/soundfx. Ive tried to rename or delete audio_config.conf (or what it was called). Nothing works! The driver now says that it is fully working, but I am unable to get ANY media sound out of my bluetooth headphones (calls and notifications still work).
Removing ALL of these patches once again enables my BT headphones to play sound, so something must be wrong in the installation of either ACP, AML or V4A.
Found my solution below (from viper4android main thread):

That might indeed be the cause if this is also true for LDAC, since I use Sony MDR-1000x as headphones.
EDIT: Confirmed! LDAC and AptX was the problem. Hooked it up to a mobile speaker using BT and it worked wonders using SDC codec. This sucks but still nice that I (read racerx002) figured it out! Thanks a lot for the help! Here's hoping that someone will post a fix for LDAC/AptX!
EDIT: More specifically, it is not LDAC and AptX that is the problem. It is the "Bluetooth sample rate". LDAC streams at 96kHz, while v4a only supports up to 48kHz as of now. Lowering to 48kHz in developer options instantly kicked in the viper4android FX!
Important, have had some problems with v4a for a while. Removing both ACP and AML fixed it for me

Hmm, I too couldn't get it working (with aptx enabled), but both are now running together. I have ViPER4Android FX Legacy Materialized. Settings at install using volume rocker: select new > material > system app > can't remeber the last one, but I chose the recommended.
I also flashed this fix for notifications. I then disabled aptx and enabled V4A master power, everything worked. Then I re-enabled aptx and V4A still works.
However, Aptx OFF(!) sounds better, clearer once I changed clarity settings up a couple of notches

Oh, thanks! I will try that!
Do you want to share you v4a settings once set up? Would be interesting to see
-install magisk debloater module
-reboot to system
-terminal
-type 'su' to get super user
-type 'debloat'
- u'll get a list
-type 2 for system priv-app
-now find out any kind of equalizer
-debloat it by typing it no
-flash v4a on magisk
-flash audio modification library
-reboot to system

Not audio modification library, audio compatibility patch and use the notification helper to remove the library with the volume down button. AML isn't required and breaks Bluetooth audio
