So I thought it would be a good idea to have a place to discuss the settings we use on Viper. I know it's tough to lock down a profile that works for everyone, since we all use different audio accessories, but maybe those of us that have learned a thing or two can help out those who don't know as much. My setup is below and my UI setting is on expert. I've also attached my profile and several .irs files.
My headphones are just $12 Skullcandy Earbuds, I have it turned off for my phone speaker (Video sounds great but notifications sound horrible), and my Bluetooth is usually streamed though my car, which has a Rockford Fosgate sound system with Tweeters, mids, a 10in sub-woofer, but it sounds great through other BT speakers I've tried as well. Full disclosure: I use TEKHD's rom, which comes with other sound mods as well, but I only use Viper and Dolby, so YMMV and all that.
To use the Profile and .irs files (impulse response) I have attached, Viper's UI setting must be set to Expert and Convolver enabled. There will then be a folder named Viper4Andriod in your main storage, and in that folder there should be one folder called Kernel and another called Profile. Place the Kernel.zip in the kernel folder and extract it, and place the Audiophile 2.zip in the Profiles folder and extract it. You can then select any of the .irs files as your impulse response and Audiophile 2 as your profile.
Headset (enabled):
Force Enable V4A - Off
Playback Gain Control: Off
Viper-DDC: Off
Spectrum Extenstion: On - Strength: 1.0
FIREqualizer: On - Preset: Custom (included in attached profile)
Convolver: On - Impulse Response: Dolby Pro Logic II.irs (attached) / Cross Channel: 15 Percent
Field Surround: On - Field Surround Strength: Slight / Mid Image Strength: Level 5
Differential Sound: Off
Headphone Surround +: Off
Reverberation: On - Room Size: 25m2 / Sound Field: 5m / Damping Factor: 0 Percent / Wet Signal: 0 Percent / Dry Signal: 80 Percent
Dynamic System: Off
Tube Sound Simulator (6n1j): Off
Viper Bass: On - Bass Mode: Natural Bass / Bass Frequency: 40 Hz / Bass Boost: 13.0 dB
Viper Clarity: On - Clarity Mode: Natural / Clarity: 3.5 dB
Cure Tech +: Off
AnalogX: Off
Output Gain: -8.0 dB
Channel Pan: 0.5 : 0.5
Limit Threshold: 0 dB
Phone Speaker (Disabled)
Bluetooth Device (Enabled)
This setup is almost identical to my Headset setup but with the below changes
Equalizer is slightly different (attached profile)
Bass Boost: 14.0 dB
Output Gain: -6.0
USB/Dock (Disabled)
The sound I get through my headphones and the Bluetooth system in my car is awesome. I hope you guys can use this profile as is or at least as a base and tweak to your liking. Enjoy.
Special thanks to @vibrantliker for the Audiophile profile I used as my base and @drbveb88 for providing the .irs files.
Update: Several more .irs files can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65293899&postcount=6
Thank @drbveb88 for posting.
Nice thread buddy!? With so many options this will be great to see what people will share.
I do not seek credit for the irs files, i didnt make them just sharing them.
Dont have too much time right now but will be back to post my settings.

I have them both enabled, however now that I think about it, I haven't tried messing with the EQ with Convolver enabled.
Also, any ideas what could be causing that noise? I haven't really tried to narrow it down since it doesn't bather me too much, but if I can get rid of it I will.
EDIT: Just confirmed that toggling the EQ with Convolver enabled does in fact affect the sound.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bs9fp7swmydapif/ViPER4Android.zip?dl=0
This has about 40+ irs files in the kernel folder and my profiles.
Im sure it wont satisfy everyones listening taste but its a very good starting point.

Easy enough fix was just to turn off viper, the songs played for maybe ten seconds before it turned to loud screeching. I haven't change anything other than loading the files. Will mess with it tomorrow when I'm sitting in the car again.

I had the same issue when plugging my phone into my car stereo via AUX with the Audiophile 2 profile. Every time there was any sort of bass, it would sound all screechy and distorted. I turned off the convolver IRS "Dolby pro logic II" and all was good again.
EDIT: After looking around some more, sounds like the updated Viper app is causing issues with IRS processing which in turn creates the distorted sound. Not all IRS are effected though so I would suggest trying a different IRS that works until the Viper bug gets sorted out.

I guess it's one of those things that work for some but not for others. Maybe this setup only works on certain sound systems. I'd like to test with other BT speakers but unfortunately I don't have any. What's strange is that my BT setup and my Headset setup are almost identical and I don't have any distortion using either one.
@vibrantliker
I've worked out the weird hiss sound in between songs. @Lam pham was correct in stating it was the Playback Gain Control causing the issue. I disabled it and changed the Output Gain from -10.5 dB to -8.0 dB to make up for the loss in volume. I'll go ahead and update the OP.

Every couple months i pointlessly ask this question.
Is anyone aware of an app that can adjust the headphone amplifier levels?
I need the headphone amp to have REDUCED volume to eliminate static noise when listening to quiet music at night.
Voodoo sound does this perfectly, but only works on samsung phones.
Thanks in advance, even though lets face it it doesn't exist.

What exactly is causing this static noise??
DSP manager should be what you are looking for. Set the equalizer in the headphone settings to "custom" then reduce the levels across all the bands. If it is high pitched static you may just want to reduce the high frequencies
EDIT: Search the forums for "Dsp manager" to find the download link. Id post it but cant...

I appreciate your reponse but its not a solution. If you listen to quiet music at night like classical music, you will hear a static. Its a cheap headphone amp in the phone. Think about a guitar amp turned up too loud. You would hear the amp clearly when the guitar isn't playing. Some phones are worse than others in this regard. Turning the headphone amp down and the media volume UP reduces static noise and allows the media volume to be high.
Turning the eq down may help but at the cost of good sound quality. I have tried it.
And finally, here is the answer. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamkang.fauxsound
I had the same problem to with white noise static coming in my low impedance in ear phones.
I edited these 2 files and lowered the gain to 48 for headset. I think by default its on 55.
They are in /system/etc
Files
TPA2051_CFG.csv
TPA2051_CFG_XC.csv
Edit and reboot. Make copies before edit just in case.

Works great for me too. I also followed the above G4 guide. Unsure of battery drain at the moment.
I have been using this for more than a month and no battery drain issues or any other problem. Works perfectly. And yes I had followed the same G4 guide.
Phone Speaker profile + Surround sound!
I made a V4A profile after installing the Surround sound mixer_paths.xml found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/development/surround-mode-h955-t3376881/ (also edited volumes in post 3 of that thread.)
After installing V4A, go to Menu > UI Setting > select "Expert"
On the Phone Speaker tab:
Enable V4A-SpeakerFX
Enable FIREqualizer > Preset "Treble Booster"
Enable Convolver > Impulse Response "SonicHunter Speakers.wav" (Download it here, unzip and copy the .wav file to sdcard/ViPER4Android/Kernel/ folder on your phone. Credit to Vinardo_ZzZ 2000 and his awesome V4A IRS thread here)
Enable eXtra-Loud > Moderate > 6x > -6.0 dB
Output Gain 4.1 dB
Limit Threshold -3.0 dB
You may need to tweak the dB values according to content, but this particular V4A convolver combined with the surround sound mod has made for a pleasant stereo experience for me. Hope others will like it too.
I also suggest trying out Viper4713's Material mod for V4A 2.4.0.1 found here. Makes the app look that much cleaner.
@PhantasmRezound tried your settings but my earpiece speakers still distorts a lot. Better than original surround mod but still far from an enjoyable result. I think flex 2 earpiece can't be pushed to high volume. Thanks anyway

There is always a possibility for slight variance in hardware (aged speaker/phone case altering sound) but especially source material plays a part too. I was listening to a lot of music and movies just fine without extreme distortion... then certain YouTube videos that had clipping from poor gain and low voice tone distorted the earpiece for me too.
You can try to redo the surround values even lower, maintaining a difference of about 8 between the the speaker channels to maintain stereo balance. You may also use V4A from here and alter the last three gain values until the distortion is gone. For one video with clipping I watched, I had to drop eXtra-Loud to -10.5 dB and Limit Threshold to -6.0 dB to eliminate the clipping causing distortion, then reboost the Output Gain positive step by step until volume was higher again, without distortion.
Going to experiment with the high-pass filters and possibly other Qualcomm biquad filters in the mixer_paths.xml file next.

Same, anyone know how to solve this?
Make sure you are rooted successfully and your SU manager app is allowing root to those programs (using Chainfire's SuperSU here.) Ensure Busybox is installed and running properly (using Stericson's Busybox Free here.) SELinuxModeChanger should have Permissive pressed in/greyed out; reboot for it to take effect first time. Verify Permissive system in the system Settings > General > About Phone > Software. Make sure you're using the latest version of V4A compatible with LP (2.4.0.1 at this time.) Install V4A drivers from its menu and reboot; check Driver Status and it should read "Normal." If it doesn't, something above is broken or perhaps another audio mod may be conflicting (if you installed other full system EQ style mods, not stereo/boosted speaker simple mods typically.) If Driver Status is greyed out on the V4A menu you need to change FX Compatible mode to Normal. (Compatible mode isn't system-wide effect and only to use with certain audio apps like Poweramp that run EQ functions of their own alongside V4A.) Good luck and hope you can trace the issue down.
Thanks a lot. I got it working. What audio source are you using to test it?
Hi!
1º Sorry my English. I try to explain but maybe i don't use the best words.
I don't know if is only my phone or not.
The volume on headphones is too low, I try with originals and others headphones (apple, beats, sony...) via bluetooth , USBC, USBC-Converter... and is horrible
I don't want to have a disco on my heads, :silly: but yes, I want to listen my music a few strong as a others phones.
Maybe is a limitation on Europe, because the quality of sound is so good, but the volumen... Meh
Thanks!!!
I read on theverge and mashable that there is suppose to be a DAC/AMP coming as an accesory. But so far I have only seen the freebuds.... My Galaxy S8 is certainly louder than P20....The Quality itself seems good though.
The only trick I know is too enable Dolby Atmos, then go to Music profile, and then "off" then you get a little more loudness and a graphical EQ that is flat. I think that should be a profile without DSP stuff going on. But most natural to me sounds with Dolby atmos disabled. But then it really struggles with volume.
Spotify has this option for example so you can set it up I think. Personally I dont need more volume. Usually using a bit more than the half of the bar.
It is a bit quieter than other phones I used but definitely not too quiet. Maybe you should go check your hearing ?
In ear headphones can be really damaging to hearing when listening on louder volumes.

Your concern is right, vol are very low even with 3rd party headphones , average volume I have to set is around 60-70% always
volume is low when there are too much noise in the background. maybe bcoz of the noise cancellation (or maybe you have ear problem). im using both apple earbuds and the huawei earphones, Pulsar+ player with in-app EQ manually adjusted + Dolby Atmos EQ adjusted to music. volume is too loud for me at 60%, my base %%% for me even in my ASUS Zenfone 5

I noticed this problem too with the original earphones and my Honor monster earphones connected with the headphone adapter. But, weirdly, the sound from my Huawei bluetooth earphones is louder!
low volume on P20 pro bluetooth
I had the same problem. I found the app Volume booster GOODEV. With that app, you will be able to boost the sound much.
Had the same issue! Realized its the cheap connector included swapped for this:
Belkertech Nylon Braided Type C to 3.5mm Audio Microphone Female
Good increase in volume. Hope that helps someone.
For Spotify what can help is to uncheck te option for same volume for all songs
fixed
My wife's mate 20 pro have similar low volume issue with her bluetooth headset and I did this to resolve the issue.
You are going to need to change the Bluethooth audio codec in the "developer options"
You'll need to search for how to get into the developer options on the internet because I can't link as a new user.
I believe you'll need your bluetooth headset connected before you can make any changes otherwise the option to change will be greyed out.
Basically I changed the Bluetooth Audio codec from ACC (which seems to be the default) to SBC. After this, the max volume dramatically improved.
For some reason, options like
Bluetooth Audio Sample Range, Bluetooth Audio Bits Per sample, Bluetooth Audio Channel Mode, Bluetooth Audio LDAC Codec are greyed out even when the bluetooth headset is connected while I checked on another android phone that these are options you can actually play with.
I wanted to change these to see if it'll actually improve bluetooth audio. Either way, I'm happy that changing this works. Let me know if it help for you guys as well?
Settings -> Sounds -> Dolby atmos -> pick "music" -> adjust all levers in the equaliser at the bottom of the screen to +x dB. I maxed out all levers to +12 dB. And voila you've got more volume without changing any relation between different frequencies.

Thanks a million m8! Works for me. Now I can't have volume much above 60% without being uncomfortably loud.
P.S. had to reboot my P30 Pro after changing the codec setting to SBC before the new setting was activated.
Most things depend on what headphones you are using the stock Huawei headphones are so-so... not really worth it either Apple.. When I plugged in my Sennheiser the sound was x2 louder, after that I also got Huawei AM61 sports bluetooth headphones which are great as well. Pay attention to OM as well it is not recommended to use more than 32 OM on a phone without an amplifier.

Thank you very much. I will be very happy to receive a tutorial that will allow me to solve this problem once and for all.
Hello, I have a regular pixel 3 and the ringtones/notifications are way too soft. I've noticed that if I'm playing a game or watching a video, the volume is great when notifications come through. Is there a way for notifications and ringtones to use the same audio channel (not sure if I'm using the right terminology here) that video and games use? I've read that it's "working as intended" per Google, and notifications and ringtones only play through the bottom speaker. Just trying to find a way to not miss so many calls when the phone is in my pocket.
Tldr: the notifications are too soft, and can it be fixed.?

I have also installed audio modification library and audio compatibility mod from magisk.
Maybe edit mixer_paths?

No, I haven't found a solution and the phone is still brand new in the box since it is useless if I can't hear it ring!
I also have a 3XL and the ringers and notifications also only come out of the bottom speaker but at a higher level.
I know someone can or has already figured it out.

What is the difference you see
There is no sound boost when ther slider is all the way to the right for clarity as well as sound.
Even if there is a sound boost,it is very very small
Depends on a lot of things actually...what app were you using while trying to boost sound through the video toolbox?, what were you listening it in..I mean , was it via 3.5 mm jack headphones or the inbuilt speakers or via bluetooth? All will give different reulsts and also depends on whether any other sound settings were tinkered as well.

I used youtube and i tried both using headphones as well as inbuilt speakers,but the volume more or less remains the same.

Ok..So were you tinkering with the equalizer and other settings found in phone settings--->sound effects prior to doing this sound boost or was it in memory?This happens to me quite often when I play around with both settings..i.e. the sound effects settings and the video toolbox sound clarity and volume boost. The only way out for me was to clear the memory though recent apps and start the youtube app again and this time the sound settings in video toolbox actually works. Dont do both at the same time if thats the reason why its happening ( make sure both the sound effects and the youtube app is cleared from the memory). Best identified through headphones. On a side note, best setting for me via the video toolbox sound boost is clarity on 2 or 3 and volume on 2 or 3.

I haven't played around with the sound effects in settings yet, it's set on smart preset already,when you increase the sound and clarity can you actually sense the increase in sound quality or is it minimal?

Marked difference... quite an increase in sound quality...BTW mine is set on Video/Voice most of the times in Preset. I find that best in terms of loudness and have tinkered with the equalizer giving it a bit of bass. But thats about it
Edit Update: The video toolbox sound effects have little to no effect when the preset is kept in smart. Video or voice gives a good difference. Kindly check and confirm if thats the case.
