Viper4android - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Trending in new waters with some of this stuff. So I installed viper4android, and busybox, but it says it isn't the proper one. Even though, it is the one they recommended and it says it was installed correctly. Any ideas?

Have you set sel linux to permissive?..

Hmm still says it. Odd.

1. Go into Viper and uninstall driver
2. Uninstall Viper
3. Go into BusyBox and click uninstall
4. uninstall BusyBox app.
5. Reboot.
6. Install this BusyBox app
7. Go into app and Install BusyBox
8. Install Viper
9. Install driver
10. Reboot

Yeah, there was another post that went through it. Followed that one, and got it working!

What post? I can't get mine working. I have jrummys busy box.

Viper4Android?

I was wondering if anyone has installed Viper4Android on this device. I had it on my previous phone and it worked flawlessly; all my music sounded amazing.
But ever since we achieved root, I couldn't successfully install it. It keeps telling me Busybox is broken or not installed, and therefore won't let me install the audio drivers.
Can anyone try installing it, if they can? My favorite band just released a new album and I'd love to hear it with a good equalizer.

I have just installed it successfully and it works perfectly on MT2-L05 4.4.2
I have busybox ( stericson ) installed on my phone. Maybe you can delete whatever version of busybox that you have installed and try to install stericson Busybox from playstore?
Good Luck !

I've tried many Busybox versions, including stericson and it still won't work. Maybe the OS has something to do with it, if it works on KitKat and not Jelly Bean?
I failed to as well. I even tried the zip install.

I tried everything today: manual Viper installation, different Busybox versions, etc., still doesn't work.
Maybe the KitKat update will make it possible. That is, if we ever get a KitKat update... I may not use a Huawei phone again if we don't get updates. There's already been so many issues (for me at least) with Emotion being so extensively modified from regular Android. And we don't have any developers at all. I'll probably go Nexus next time.

I am using it now flawlessly. The driver cannot be installed automatically but you can manage to use the flashable zip file to install it manually.
First uninstall the app and backup your build.prop.
Download the flashable zip file here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/discussion-viper4android-t2543796
Reboot to your TWRP and flash the zip file and reboot. The zip file would install the apk file in /system/priv-app which is actually not recognized by the Huawei system. So please manually move the apk file to /system/app or /data/app , or just install it and remove whatever file left in /system/priv-app
And then start the app you should be able to install the driver. Actually the driver has been installed after you flashed the zip file.
Since it will modify your build.prop, so please make a backup. And in my case it broke my build.prop so I had to modify the file manually. There is an example in the link above. Please append the followings at the end of your build.prop.
Code:
##Viper4android
lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
lpa.releaselock=false
OK. Reboot and you are all set.
Again, if you encounter soft brick and the system ui fails to appear, high chances that V4a broke or deleted your build.prop. Make sure you make a back up of that file first.

Do you have this working on the US version MT2L03? And can V4A be used to boost the handset (earpiece) volume?
Thanks,

Yes and yes. I am using the US version MT2L03 and it can be used to boost my earbud volume.
Sweet, I thought you had the non-US version at first. I'll install TWRP soon, try this and report back!
I managed to install it...but I dont know which settings will let me do this.
I want to increase the volume of the phone when using it as a phone held up to my ear without affecting battery drain. There are too many options. The FAQ links to a site to explain the settings but that site is down. Help?
Update: never mind I uninstalled viper4android (reverted to backup actually). It barely increased the volume but it would crash my phone when connecting to Bluetooth despite it being disabled for bluetooth.
Works great but shuts down when the screen sleeps. No option in the apps list to keep it running.

There was the option to mark it as a protected app for me but that's because i installed it to /data/app by copying it there. Did you install it to /system/app maybe?
I found it too buggy to keep though so I dont use it now.

Aw, I forgot to install TWRP and try Viper over the weekend. I don't want to risk messing up my phone during the week, leaving me phone-less!

In the Viper settings, you can set "Show notification", so the system won't kill the app when the screen is off. If that's not enough, what I did on my previous phone was use this app to protect Viper. Install that, go to "Tasks", tap on Viper, and select "Exclude" on the bottom left.
Root the device (search how to root the device Huwei Mate 2)
Change to permissive mode with “SELinux Mode Changer” apk from xda or search.
Enable developer options (tapping the Settings->Builld Number several times will enable the developer options, by default it is hidden from the user) and uncheck Use Nuplayer option.
Install the viper4android (get the latest untouched viper4android from original viper4android thread).
optional making viper4andriod as system app(refer how to make system app, if you want to make viper4andorid as system app)
set following values on the “build.prop” using the (Build Prop Editor, search for apk)
##Viper4android
lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
lpa.releaselock=false
Run following commands with “Terminal Emulator” apk (search playstore or internet)
>>su
>>/system/xbin/supolicy --live "allow mediaserver mediaserver_tmpfs:file { read write execute };"
Open the viper4android and install the drivers.
Reboot the device
After reboot Launch the viper4android and check the driver status then you will see driver status normal.
feel free to play with compatible mode option or other options to suit your needs.
Thanks, guy with one post who revived a year old thread. If anyone tries this let us know how you made out, I guess.

How to install Viper FX audio on Huawei Ascend Mate 2

I'd really like to install Viper FX Audio, that's my latest struggling. I've tried, busy box Stephen (Stericson), busy box on rails, and tried converting it into system app.
But every time it says install busy box. Am on rooted 4.3 Please help.
Also, if there is any thing better then Viper Audio please mention steps here.

There was a flashable ZIP which I used before upgrading to 5.1, but when I went back to 4.3 I looked at that thread and the OP updated it to Lollipop only. I don't know about any other flashable ZIP's.

You can install the apk and go through the driver install process and if you choose, you can always make it a system app using titanium backup

I tried installing through the APK many times (even the one in the Play Store), but it would give an error message whenever I tried to install the driver saying something about Busybox, even though I have it installed.

Nope. Installing Viper gives the same error message, for me and everyone else that tried it, even way before the 5.1 update was a thing. We've been trying it since most of us got the phone, one year ago.

Here's what I did, since you mentioned a restart post busybox installation.
Installed Viper, choose Power Saving Mode, Installed Busybox (free) from playstore, restarted it, same driver error, Converted it into system app, same sh*t, no solution
Am sure no one here is using Viper Audio Mate2 4.3 and if they are then they aren't sharing solution.
Also, I've searched the official Viper Audio thread too for a solid answer but no luck.
Player Pro gets stopped randomly, thought it was Xposed, uninstalled that too. Xposed is anyway not much of help to me.
Thanks anyway, all of you.

I'm no longer on 4.3 and I forget if I got V4A to work on 4.3. I am sure no one is holding back in helping you. That's not how we roll on XDA (unless you are a total lazy a$$ and require hand holding, which is not you). Sorry I am unable to offer more.
The only solution was to flash a ZIP, but like I said, that ZIP has been updated to Lollipop only. Before the ZIP was updated, I flashed it on my phone on 4.3 and it worked. Viper installed, and I was happy.
There is no way to install it on 4.3 anymore, unless there is another flashable ZIP somewhere out there.

Xposed Modules

Now that we have Xposed working, what modules have you installed that work? Or ones that don't work? Anyone try Notify Clean?
Root cloak
NotifyClean seems to be working well.
I'm using appopsxposed, directapkinstall module, play store changelog, rootcloak, swype row, youtube adaway, and youtube background playback.
Gravity Box [LP] also working... although I only am using some tweaks to clean up the status bar...
Anyone else try G4 Tweaksbox? I installed the module, but when starting the app, it said the Xposed framework was not found (or something like that...). anyone else have any luck with it?
Im using the G4 tweakbox, amplify, and acdisplay. All work well

I can't update my xposed, how did you guys go about doing it? Also, kind of off topic, when I installed V4A it asked me to install busybox (which I did, the one that it redirects you to) and it still says that I don't have the proper busybox installed which makes it so it is unable to install the driver.

Not sure what you mean by "update" xposed... there is no update - you just install the latest framework (and app) as discussed in a couple of other threads. What am I missing? Also, my not be relevant as I have not tried to install V4A, but the Busybox installer that worked best for most folks was the one from JRummy (app store)--you might try uninstalling busybox and then reinstall with that app... Hope this helps.

That is what I meant, by installing a newer framework. Anyways I got that working, but now I have a new problem. I am unable to uninstall the xposed framework. The reason why I am trying to do this is so that I can sign back into snapchat. I have tried flashing the uninstall zip via flashfire, but it doesn't seem to be working (I have tried flashing it multiple times with no luck).

I think at this point, the only way to "uninstall" xposed is to flash the stock tot via LGUP.

Sorry I don't flash xposed directly to system. I don't want my system to be messy ?.
I used magisk version which is easier to control since that way I can disable xposed when I have to use Google pay
I recommend you to also use magisk module one, safer and better

but after rebooting the xposed installer says "Xposed-Framework Version 90-beta3 is installed, but not active. Please see Logs for Details."
but when trying to see the logs it only shows "Cannot read log/data/user_de/0/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/log/error.log no such file or directory"
i just have a file called "log" in root directory, but no folder.
do you know what happend there?

Viper4Android Abnormal

Installing V4A via Magisk v18 installs but then when run & checking the driver status on V4A it says "Abnormal" which does not let you use the enhancements at all to tweak your audio. Any help on this or if anyone has installed it fine or not?
Yea I had that happen as well. Not sure if this is what fixed it, but try installing busybox. if that doesn't fix it, leave busybox installed, and uninstall viper and reinstall from magisk. I choose 2.5.0.5 material theme. I also got xHifi working in a stacked sorta config, great for a speaker specific profile.
If its still not working, keep playing with it, it will eventually
