Viper Audio Mod (root required) - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps

THIS IS NOT MY MOD. I AM NOT THE DEVELOPER. GO TO THE OFFICIAL THREAD AND SUPPORT THE DEVS CAUSE THIS MOD IS A BEAST.
This is by far the best sounding device for the Viper mod (imo).
Follow this link and READ the op, then download zip for the latest version near the bottom of post #1

Extract the file for 4.xx / open file / install apk.
Open the app and you will be prompted to install the driver. Choose high quality then it will install the driver and prompt you to reboot once completed. That's it! Once installed, you can then check for updated versions in the settings menu which is a nice feature.
To Start:
You will probably want the FX Compatible Mode set to Compatible since most music players EQ will not work together with the mod (settings / FX Compatible Mode / Compatible).
The stock music player is not compatible so you'll need to find one you like that is. I use power amp, but there is a setting you must enable for it to work. settings / audio / advanced tweaks / direct volume control and musicfx checked. Once this is done, return to the EQ settings and go to Tone/Vol tab. Make sure MusicFX is lit up. Sometimes the player will fug up and disable this while you're listening but still lit up. Just push it off then back on.
In Viper, there are three levels of settings. Go into settings / UI Setting and you'll see beginner, moderate, and expert. Each open a little more options in the main settings that will let you tweak the hell out of this thing. Most of what I tweak is only available in expert.
My Settings:
Ok, Let me start by saying that I listen to heavy metal so my overall experience may be different from yours unless you're a bad ass like me
Also, I pretty much use this in my car so my settings will likely sound different on what you've got. I have a 10'' sub with just 300 watts and factory door speakers. My power amp eq is only moved one notch up starting at 250 then two notches at 4k and 8k and the tone and limit buttons are off. When using the same settings, Country music and other stuff (Alice in Chains, Aaron Lewis, Stained etc.) sounds great too. To test the limit of your system and start with a good base, play some high quality classical music while tuning your settings.
For my car, I have the headset tweaked WITHOUT certain modes on to reduce constant 'waves' in the music.
- Playback Gain Controll, Field Surround, Differential Surround, Headphone Surround+, and Reverberation are all disabled.
- FIREquilizer is set at "Rock" then tweaked to reduce the low and high, and add a little mids.
- Impulse Response Samples (irs). I enable the convolver from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439254. READ UP on this because it's difficult for me to explain. I just started using this one so I'm playing around with the different impulse resonse mods, but BBE Harmonic Maximizer Preset 2.irs is pretty damn nice. There are directions on how to install the files in that op.
- Dynamic System is enabled on mine. This will be part of where you will need to keep adjusting the settings to your liking. I use "Common Earphone(v2)" and set the dynamic bass at 4%.
- Fidelity Control is another one you will need to tweak. I enable ViPER bass, bass mode subwoofer, bass frequency 100 Hz, ViPER clarity is enabled, natural clarity mode, clarity at 6.0 dB.
The bass, guitars and kick drums come through the speakers without any distortion and the mids / highs are clear as hell without too much treble.
If you use headphones, you will probably need to modify your settings and use some of the surround sound stuff. I save two separate effect profiles though. This also applies to watching movies. You'll wanna play around with the settings and irs mods.

Good question. I guess it depends on what eq it uses. I deleted Google play music but I'll try Pandora and let you know.
-edit. Pandora doesn't work for me but there might be a way to enable it which would be in the dev's thread. I don't think it uses your device to control the sound though. Someone test Google play music and reply.

Really want to use this to improve the sound in my car, but it needs root. I'm a bit afraid of getting the phone rooted by now due to problem with Kingo.

Guys, this is a callable in the play store. Just download, install, profit. Or is this different from the play store version?

Internal EQ adjustment?

Is there any way to globally adjust the eq? I would like to tweak Pandora's output but can't. I saw a mod for the Droid, I think it was called milestone eq or something. If anyone has ideas or maybe something can be added to one of the upcoming rom's...
Thanks....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
This shouldn't be in the development section, but I may include Voodoo sound in my next kernel. Then you'll be able to adjust a lot of settings.
Thx, I wasn't sure where to put it....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
if it is a question put it in general untill we have a q&a section, it is safer there. maybe if the qiestions are development related (like you are in the middle of a project and need input and plan to post the project later in the same thread) you might get away with it.
to answer the question there is an eq widget in the market but i didnt care for the quality and there is an app called galaxy tuner (also in the market) for the i9000 and other phones with similar hardware that works on the infuse. dont use it on the external speaker(bug results in lost ringtones) but it works great for headphones. it also has a "3d sound" option that works pretty nice, better than any other audio enhancement i have seen on an andriod phone.
The problem with the marketplace apps is that they only work for music played in a music player, not streamed through services like Pandora. I'll check out the ones you mentioned though...

galaxy tuner claims to be a hardware eq, it is at minimum a global eg, it is not a music player but an app that sets many hardware and kernel setting that you otherwise dont have access to. it works! the eq widget (dont remember the name) also works but i never got a good balance out of it.

Best Music Player (IMO)

Just a heads up! I found a really sweet music player that plays any file music file type that I throw at it! It's called DeaDBeef Player. Get it here. You'll also have to install the free plugins pack, which is here. I do a lot with music and what not, and this is the only player that I found that will play wavs; including 24 bit wavs! It's a little ugly, but VERY functional--I may try to theme it.
Does it have lockscreen controls?
Does it have a built in equalizer?

I dunno about lockscreen controls--I don't use 'em--but I know it has a 10-band EQ with a preamp control. Also, the free version has no limited functionality, just that it has ads and the pro does not.
Can you defeat the equalizer/tone controls? (Not just "zero" them, but remove them entirely from the path)

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but here's what you get in the EQ: 10 bands and 1 preamp (each with their own slider), levels from -20db - +20db, on and off button, presets button, and an "all zero" button. Hopefully that answered your question.
I believe Jeff is asking if you can "bypass" the software EQ and the associated sound degradation that a software EQ introduces. Please correct me if I'm wrong Jeff.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
That's correct. The better your headphones/IEMs get, the more you hear the kind of distortion introduced by most EQ software.
It looks like it has an "on/off" for the EQ which should hopefully pull it out of the signal path.
Sorry guys! For some reason I didn't get any new post notifications by email... but yeah, the on/off button acts as the "defeat" in regards to EQ. I also found out that this is using the same audio engine as the Linux version (link).
Says the Android version is very different but than try for sharing I will try it out
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I tried it out and it doesn't have the lock screen or a status bar control. Sorry, gotta find something else.
Yeah... it's more for audiophiles than your average mp3 user. It will play anything...

Here you'll find the latest version of Noozxoide Rewire PRO, version 2.0.1.13, which is an application to provide pure eargasm. This is meant for Audiophiles, like me. You'll hear audio which you have never heard before. You'll hear clear effect even with a basic headphone.
It's available on Play Store too, but in some country it's not accessible. That's why I'm posting it here. This is the Play Store link,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noozxoidelabs.eizo.rewirepro
Install as normal APK and go to Settings- Sound- Music effects and select Noozxoide.
Then go to the app and configure it as per your requirement.

Works absolutely fine with PowerAMP. Go to settings-audio- advanced tweaks-direct volume control and turn it off. Then you'll get the effect from Noozy.

thanks for sharing. several searches on the play store showed no results. im from nigeria by the way. we also dont have a means of donating yet. but trust me... i owe lots of app developers on xda big time. unless of course you accept liberty reserve payments.
thanks guys
For PowerAMP-Users:
Disable:
-DirectVollumeControl (mentioned already)
-the click on Equalizer and disable Equ, Tone and Limit
Still think that Walkman-Player and Noozy Studio 3 sound better, but there are some issues like id3 Cover Art, exported PAMP-Playlist wont work and UI of PAMP is just better to use.

Best Bluetooth audio mod?

So I use my phone in my car for Pandora and Google music. It sounds good stock but I was looking for any additional mods to play with it. Not sure if the audio mods out there affect Bluetooth or not. Any suggestions?

FX version 2.2.0.5 / XHiFi version 2.0.0.8
Install them both just like normals apps
They will ask you to install drivers
for FX click CortexA15/Neon
XHiFi Cortex/Neon
and Reboot
Once you are done with a reboot, go to system > sound > music effects > V4A FX > Profit.
Both of them can run together simultaneously.

Thanks a lot! Got it running. But are you sure it works with Google Music and Pandora? I'm playing music in my car and switching between a lot of settings in the FX app and nothing is changing. Not sure if I'm missing something or what.

It wasn't working with Pandora for me as well, but one day after cache/dalvik or might have been dirty flash since it removes files.
Play around with it for a bit.
It should work with every audio output.
okay good deal. Just curious, why do you have master power off? Doesn't that need to be on for it work?

Yes you have to turn on master power or nothing will work. If you are in compatible mode with both apps you want to select another option in your sound settings, I use the standard FX. Also don't be concerned it the driver status screen shows the app isn't working, it's a problem with the status screen. You should be able to hear a major difference by switching the master power off and then back on. You will hear a difference when you switch the other settings but some will be fairly subtle.
Yeah I got it working, but I only hear a difference with my bluetooth headphones. A big difference actually. In my car, I'm not getting the differences. I'm thinking because my Pioneer head unit. It has its built in own EQ curve settings that I can change but I don't think I can turn it off. Not sure if that's whats causing the issue or not. But I did notice it does make it a little too "bassy". I'm sure that can be adjusted though. I just wish I could get it to work in my car because that's where I really want it.

Great apps for features and functionality!!

Hey so recently I've discovered viper4android. Love it like 10X more than DSP. DSP is still a solid app though. This is what I want.
I want to know about more apps like viper4android, permission control apps, etc. Anything you can think of with great features, functionality, real good UI. I've seen a few threads but thought they only ok. Root or non root doesn't matter to me. Just wanna know about some must have apps that add functionality, are really helpful and do it well! links are welcome too!
Let's see what you guys got.
1. GMD Gesture Control
2. Llama
3. Tasker
I use Jet Audio Player together with Viper4Android.

viper4android is great -
especially i love the "Differential Sound" in my car - its the only app that can make that
i do not know if many people know -
by setting 2-5ms delay you get a pretty nice stage from your speaker - way better than without
other people buy high end car audio systems to get this option - its made to correct the runtime of the sound - different distance between your ear and the left and right speakers of your car ...
Try it out - you will like it!!
