S6 and gear vr - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know why a rooted S6 with custom rom and kernal won't play nice with the gear vr headset? Specifically the occulus software installer won't kick off.
Is there specific firmware and build/model settings I need. I have the international edition of S6 so wasn't expecting problems.

I think you need a kernel from Samsung to use vr.. Not sure though as I have not rooted my s6 yet.

Thanks for the reply 8-D
I'm on Arrow rom v9 and I just tried arter kernel 10; oculus home won't start up for me. I'll have to try crash rom.
Oculus home launches with hacker kernel but I have color issues discussed in my link above.

Yeah, I'm afraid I have that problem.
Thought it was just a limitation of the system. Let's hope we can get that fixed.

Anyone found a custom rom and kernel combination that doesn't have color issues?

Maybe wanam's rom and kernel but i don't try i keep stock rom for the moment

I did a wipe and installed extralite rom with arter v11 kernel; color issues are gone so it's running like stock firmware; so happy now!

[Q] 4.4.2 Stock Themer

Hi guys, I'm running 4.4.2 and I was wondering if there is anyway to theme the stock OS? I mean something like the CM Theme Engine or maybe flashable theme or even an xposed module ? Thanks for your time :laugh:
PS: I'm rooted and I have unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom recovery ( TWRP )
there's lots of themes in the play store.

I don't know, there are one or two Xposed theme engine modules. I don't use them as I use a custom ROM.

Just update to 4.4.4, claiming that 4.4.2 has better performance and battery life compared to 4.4.4 is silly, it's going to be exactly the same (improvements if anything). Just flash the 4.4.2 radio in fastboot if the 4.4.4 radio isn't good for you ._.

I'm still on 4.4.2 too... haven't felt the need to upgrade yet either. I use HKTheme Manager (xposed module) for applying themes. Make sure to check the search options in settings if your themes aren't showing up.

[Lollipop] Viper4android v2.3.3.0

Hi, guys! I found a working version viper4android for Android 5.0.2, i tested on latest version CyanogenMod 12 and works great! Installation by twrp/cwm
My Viper isn't working!!!
"Did you install by flashing the zip??? Is your apk in priv-app??? Do you have any other conflicting sound mods or eq's??? Is Viper enabled and you have installed the drivers and done a reboot???
Some people have luck adding or changing these lines in their build.prop:
##Viper4android
lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
lpa.releaselock=false
Also some music players work better by switching to Compatibility Mode. To do that go to menu, click FX Compatible Mode, then click Compatible. Doing this should cause Viper to only modify media players instead of changing sound system wide. Some users say this helps with battery usage as Viper will only process sound when you want it to."
P.S.:
Lolliviper will install the Viper to priv-app and remove Audio FX, DSP Manager, and Music FX.

kernel change
Even with SeLinux Mode Changer, the kernel stays on enforcing mode (in my case atleast where im on stock 5.0.1) (EVEN WHEN MODE WAS CHANGED TO PERMISSIVE) Basically what has to be done is install a SeMode editing friendly kernel inbuilt in a particular rom which i cant find and i can't live without viper4android :crying: :crying:
saw some beta's on a few website. Will try and post the results here.

i dont get what you said about this part "im using it with stock tw 5.0.1 since i managed to run viper on 4.4.4 stock."
are you using viper on tw 5.0.1 because you make it work on 4.4.4? that doesnt make sense.
also, how did you make viper works on tw 5.0.1 ? did you use that apk that changes the kernel to permissive?
did you do something else?
i also installed viper on t2 5.0.1 and get able to click on options but they didnt make any difference to the sound.
also, you said you will try with custom kernels...
does that mean, you make it work with stock ones? (the ones in custom tw 5.0.1 roms)
are there any custom kernel for tw 5.0.1?
Sorry for these lots of questions.

I said that ill try to flash on 5.0.1 since i was able to run viper without any errors on android 4.4.4 which was running stock mernel.
2. No i didnt successfully run the mod and system status remains abnormal inspite of me following every step to install viper
3. When i say custom kernel, PrismBarebone Rom in aurora gives you an option to flash 5 different kernels and i will try to run it in one of those kernels to see if this mod works
sorry if i wasnt clear to elaborate what you had asked for.

Viper4Android TW Lollipop Tutorial [UPDATED]

First off, you do this at your own risk and I'm not responsible for any damage to your phone etc etc. Also, thanks to it's ties with Sound Alive, it won't work with the stock music player unfortunately but I have tested it with both Spotify and GoneMad and it works perfectly with both.
I'm using this on AryaMod 3.1, so this should mean the instructions below work on any N9005ZSUGOA5 based Lollipop rom.
1) Download and install DarkQueen Kernel here. Thank @hiepgia.
2) Add the line "setenforce 0" (without the quotes) to the end of the file /sýstem/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh. This will ensure a permissive state on boot. Thanks to @hiepgia and @filchi756 for this.
3) Download and install the new Viper4Android 2.3.4.0 here. Run, install the driver.
4) Find and freeze/delete Sound Alive. This being present is bad in particular for Spotify, which will always use Sound Alive in preference to Viper4Android.
Reboot enjoy Viper goodness.
For people who want to use the stock player, see @filchi756 post here
For people running AyraMod V4.0, ignore the above instructions, select DarkQueen kernel via Aroma on install (this will automatically result in permissive SE) and please see @filchi756's modified zip here. Don't forget to thank him.
Awesome
Finally!
Oh I am seeking for that. :good::good::good:

Unfortunately, it won't work for me... As soon as I flash stock kernel back - wifi is working like a charm again. Tried to do factory reset after flashing this Dark Queen Kernel - it didn't solve the problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

We have the same situation. .I think we have to wait for google to release the lollipop sources for note3 and wait for someone to make a custom kernel intended for our phone.
OP updated.
You eventually did it. Well done!
Nice one! Could anybody make it work with the stock Samsung Music Player using this tutorial? It seems this app is deeply integrated with SoundAlive, so at least with KK it was impossible to make it work reliably with V4A. But things may have changed with LL...
Yeah, unfortunately it appears to be the same here. I froze Sound Alive to get Viper working with Spotify, but this results in no effects whatsoever with the stock music player. Personally, this doesn't bother me as there are far better players on the market.

What baseband are you on? You have the same phone model as myself and my wifi works fine. I suspect it might be related to your modem/NON-HLOS.
Overall everything works fine except few bugs from the Darkqueen kernel, like brightness changes sometimes when I lock/unlock the phone.

If you're correct and there is no kernel which is either permissive or can be made permissive then Viper is currently unusable on the Exynos variant of the S4. It's currently impossible to use Viper on an enforcing TW ROM.

[DISCUSSION] Best Stable and Fastest ROM for our device currently

Hey Guys! So, I want to know that which ROM do you think is the most stable and fast ROM available currently on our device? I prefer speed over features. Also Xposed and ViperFX should preferably work. Am currently on CM 13 but it doesn't over kernel OC.

2) The ROM has a theme engine built in. What kind of themes can I use???

CM11 Galaxy Tab 2 P3110 Problems

Hello everyone, I've installed CM11 here with pico gapps, The CM 11 is latest version Nightly. The rom boot and everythings works, but when I try to use some apps, for example: Aida 64,Auditor Kernel, OpenGL Extension Viewr, CPU Z, Task Manager. The Tab 2 anormaly restart, I can't open any app that, the Tab 2 always restart. Have any solution for that ? Or I will need to change for another ROM based on KitKat ?
Thanks

You know why cause this problem ? I try to see GPU OpenGL library from Razr i XT890, is the same of tab 2 (SGX540) and it have more extension OpenGL and opens the game of thrones with the graphics, vainglory don't open, because it not compatible with X86.

Why wasting your time and the dev's. You have cm13 is very stable you can run multiple apps without any lag or freezing or sudden reboots. I'm using it since a week now without any problem at all everything works perfectly and smoothly no need at all for overclocking
