How to get Viper4Android working on Lollipop ROMs
I want to start the thread off by stating that I DID NOT develop this mod myself. Full credit for the work goes to @FuMMoD for the updates for V4A’s .apk and libraries. Also to @//.dax for the new icon. @AndrasLOHF for the thread that lists the original .zip files we’ll be flashing, also the Viper4Android team for making this app in the first place. This thread is simply a detailed, in-depth guide with a video to help people install what they created. Links to the original threads are below. Please visit it for more information and help. This wouldn’t have been possible without these people.
I’ve personally tested this method on many ROMs based off of CM12 on my Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-i9500 and it’s worked every time. If it doesn’t work for your ROM, post details and I’ll look into it. Most people have tried this method on their Nexus 5 and reported success.
Stock users!! If you use a ROM based on TouchWiz or other ROMs with a stock kernel that is set to "Enforcing", there is a chance step #3 will fail! Please read Q6 in the F.A.Q. below for help on this! This is NOT a V4A problem! And it CAN be fixed usually! Read carefully!
Please do not post that this isn't working for you unless you are 100% sure you did the steps exactly like I mentioned. Read the F.A.Q. first to make sure. Visit the thread links below for more help. It should theoretically work on all Lollipop ROMs.
Please follow this carefully step by step or this may not work for you. If you ARE sure you did these steps correctly and it still didn't work (I don't see why it wouldn't), post your device information and ROM details and I'll look into it.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it!
YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.]
Let's get started.
Things you'll need:
1. A lollipop ROM. (duh)
2. Root access.
3. Custom recovery. (Any recovery should work as long as it can flash .zip files)
I would recommend reading the F.A.Q. before you do this!
Here's a video tutorial I made to make things easier to understand:
Here are the steps:
Head into your settings, and go to about device. Look for the SELinux status. If it says either “Permissive” or “disabled”, move on to step 4. If it says “Enforcing”, go to step 2.
Download and install “SELinux Mode Changer” from the Play Store (link in post two)
Open the app you just installed, and tap on “Permissive”. Grant root access when and if prompted, then reboot the device. <--If this does not work, read question 6 of the F.A.Q. below.
Go to post two, and download “Viper4Lollipop.zip” from any of the mirrors listed. (Request for more mirrors).
Go into app drawer, and disable “Audio FX”, or “DSP Manager” or “Music FX” depending on your ROM.
Disable stock music player. <--Read question 1 of the F.A.Q. below to see why you have to do this.
Go to developer options, and uncheck “Use NuPlayer”.
Reboot device into recovery.
Flash the “Viper4Lollipop.zip” you downloaded. Wipe dalvik/cache. Reboot.
Open the V4A app from the app drawer, and install drivers when prompted after granting root access. Reboot once it’s done.
Go to play store and download any third party music app. (Shuttle Player or Google Play Music are good options.)
Enjoy the sweet sound of V4A on your Lollipop ROM.
F.A.Q.
Q1: Why do I need to disable the stock music app?
A: V4A causes force closes when using the stock music app. You CAN try another .zip (see post two and question 2 of F.A.Q.) which fixes this issue, but the disadvantage of that is that you might lose Chromecast functionality. Moreover, I never tried this personally so I can’t help you if you flash the other one and it doesn’t work. For anyone who wants to try a more complex approach and keep stock music player compatibility, see post #20 by @mholloway.
Q2: What is the difference between the recommended .zip and alternate .zip?
A: The recommended one will break stock music app, but it’ll work fine otherwise. The alternate one MIGHT fix the stock music app, but you might lose Chromecast functionality. Refer to the original thread for more details on this.
Q3: Will this cause any bricks or bootloops?
A: Absolutely no. It shouldn't. Never bricked mine.
Q4: How do I remove this?
A: Uninstall V4A drivers, then delete the app from the root directory.
Q5: Why does the volume go down on some screens?
A: This isn’t a problem with V4A. This is because of Google Now conflict or any other app that uses the microphone. It happens on some ROMs and they are the problems. Example: Volume went down for me on GearCM but not on Euphoria OS. Fix? Disable "OK Google" hot-word detection or disable/stop apps that use the microphone.
Q6: The kernel won't change to permissive.
You're not alone. Some people reported this doesn't work on some stock ROMs. This is because of the stock kernel on some stock ROMs (mostly Samsung) that cannot be changed to permissive. At this point, your best bet is to try a different kernel for your phone and ROM. A simple Google search will help you with that. Thanks to @banccalif in post #15 for the suggestion.
Watch the video if the steps seem complicated to you. If you're gonna tell other people about this, please link back to this thread.
Enjoy V4A for Lollipop and be sure to check out the thread in post two and thank the devs. They’re the geniuses who did this. :good:

On that particular ROM? No. I have not. But it worked on 100% of Lollipop ROMs I've tried.. CM12, GearCM, Resurrection Remix and Euphoria. Worked just fine. If you do decide to try it, do post results.
I am not able to disable or change selinux to permissive on this rom

Even with that app? I don't think you can disable it if it's set to enforcing, only to permissive.. But I don't know why you're not able to set it to permissive from enforcing though.. :/ Try asking in the ROM forum? Mine was disabled from the beginning so I had no troubles with this. But everyone who has had it to enforcing WAS able to change it with that app. :/
I guess it would not change on touchwiz based roms

Cool. I'm thinking of using a cm based rom simply because i want to use v4a but the only thing i don't like about cm based roms is that the contacts on my sim don't show up in the contacts app

Really? I didn't even know it has that problem lol All my contacts are synced with Google since I flash ROMs all the time and don't have patience to backup phone contacts every time I do.. And my SIM could never accommodate my 300+ contacts. But if it helps, @BlaqueDroid's Euphoria OS I'm using now is pretty nice if you wanna try it out. :good:
Hey man, I'd like to ask ya, I've installed 2.3.4.0 , on stock player the processing is working BUT when I'm using TTpod then writes NO, on 2.3.3.0 was working.so if i flash the V4A patch compatibility zip might work?

I dunno what patch compatibility zip you are talking about. The zip in this thread contains the full app along with modified and additional binaries. FYI, the app included is 2.3.3.0 and not 2.3.4.0. I haven't gotten around to update it yet, but if it helps, I just installed TTPod on my Galaxy S4 i9500 running CM12 to test it and it's working perfectly like you said.

I'm on a sprint s5 running MOAR 6.0 Lollipop so I don't know if there are or where the kernel may be for you. Kernels are the same as flashing a rom, wipe both caches before and after flashing

No problem at all ?
I am on MOAR Ao6 lollipop. I have the stock music player.which viper won't work with,so I extracted the AOSP music player from the MOAR ROM and changed the apk name from SamsungMusic_20 to SamsungMusic1_20 and created a folder named the same in system/app.set permissions and now I have the stock player. And the AOSP player (Apollo) and viper4android works with Apollo.
For those of you that don't know Viper4Android is the probably the best sound mod you can do on any android phone, I can confirm that it works on the Note 5 as my listening experience in the car has greatly improved
Prerequisites
-Must be rooted
-Skyhigh or arter97 kernel flashed
-If no custom kernel is flashed selinux must be set to permissive using the selinux app found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485
-Download Viper4Android from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
Steps
1. Download and install this zip through recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...achment.php?attachmentid=3470840&d=1442036930 (Credits to Critical Detox for finding it)
2. Launch Viper4Android and install the driver and reboot
2a. I highly recommend using this IRS. http://d-h.st/VBM
That should be it to get it working, S6 users have commented that you have to freeze a couple of apps for it to work but I can confirm that's not the case. If you have any questions or need suggestions feel free to ask

I have had this working on every device, previously the S6 using a flashable zip.
Now I cannot get it to process when clicking on driver status it usually says "yes".
I am using a deodexed tmobile rom with Noble kernel. The SELINUX changer says I am permissive but viper4android doesnt want to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Interesting. Are you running in compatible mode, then?
I envy all of you for getting to use Viper, I'm trying my best to hold out until I can try Samsung pay beta/release which ever comes first to me then I'll decide to root only after.
I've been wondering this for a while now. I noticed in the OP, there was a choice to use a custom kernel or stay with the stock one. Obviously, we need root to get Viper working BUT do we really need a custom kernel to root 5.1.1. On the Note 5? I'm asking because BOTH of my cars miss Viper from my Note 4 and I'm hearing the current Kernels are causing a few issues with the Note 5, thanks!

You can root using the Noble Kernel which is pretty much a stock kernel and then use the selinux app to change the kernel to permissive.

Thanks for the reply, Adolfo. Are you having any issues with the Noble Kernel? People are reporting things like battery drain, rebooting and or loss of certain features, Netflix not work, etc. I miss Viper but I would like to know that my phone would be fully functional after root. Also, it seems as if only a few Kernels work with the new firmware that was released yesterday.
Keeps getting more complicated. haha.

While I appreciate the help, Brava, I was responding to Adolfo's recommendation of using the Noble kernel due to it being close to stock. My question was if he's having any issues with that Kernel.
I've used Viper since it's inception so I'm fully aware that it has nothing to do with any of the aforementioned symptoms.
Thanks though.

How do you apply the v4a bass profile
I'm using viper4arise which is the best sound I've ever heard especially if you love thumping base , my kernel is blu-spark 151 with systemless root and normal system Xposed framework I use swift black substratum theme aswell as nova launchers night mode and my oneplus 3's dark theme and using twrp 3.0.2.1 ( not modified ) with oxygen OS 3.2.6 , everything is stable so I'm gonna keep it this way until official 7.0 has come out for our OP3's ... Plus got my settings looking quite decent via an Xposed module called settings editor I'll post a screenshot.

Some apps utilize kernel own way, If kernel is in Enforcing mod that apps keep crashing so "Permissive kernel" required, Like if you want Dolby atmos ( For so much bass ) you'll have to need permissive kernel....

Is there anyway to get v4a working on nouget? I tired the method the the regular s7 forum but it didn't work.
Look for Viper4Android V2.3.4.0 here on XDA (the one that works without the Selinux permission and has a higher audio fidelity than the newer versions and has the better UI IMO) then flash that puppy. Check if it works and if not you have to Google "Viper4Android on nougat" and it will give you a bypass that has you erase a stock audio file that prevents Viper4Android from working. This wasn't the case for me since I didn't have that file. The version I speak of has Dolby audio; I erased that because it just added more static IMO. I had this with the dual audio mod for a while but it didn't seem to make a difference but add more static.
If this works for you, please update the main post with credit to those sources. If you also want some settings for some Fire Audiophile experience, please ask; I run heavy bass that doesn't drown out music and makes Beats sound way better.

I used this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-viper4android-nougat-beta-t3499117
I downloaded this V4A zip and installed the apk inside. I did not install the Nougat IO test fix because I didn't need to. Everything works fine
http://www.mediafire.com/file/xonl4jha2e4vez1/ViPER4Android_FX_v2505.zip
I don't remember what post I found this link on, but it was here on XDA.
I am running Jrkruse's BS Free nougat. I followed his instructions at the link below, the only thing I added was flashing the engineering kernel as the last item in FlashFire and than rerooted.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/development/rom-t3572739
I also have SE Linux Changer installed and have it set to Permissive.
This is a 3in1 Magisk audio modification that enhances your audio quality and volume.
If you're using RUI please go to this thread. My guide can only be used on custom ROMs.
I'm not going to write a detailed tutorial or bother putting hours of energy into formatting this post unlike my previous guides. Say thanks for this to XDA mods and rules which try to isolate XDA from other development platforms such as 4pda or Telegram. Most of development for this device happens there. You can't even share links here so if you wish to know more about this module or need help PM me on my Telegram profile which is visible on my XDA profile.
This mod is combination of:
Viper4Android, DolbyAtmos and ICEpower. All this was made to be compatible by building it upon the ACDB module and ViPER | Atmos mod. You can read more about them by clicking on their names.
Installation: Flash them as Magisk module from Magisk manager.
Don't forget to disable/freeze your ROM's stock Music FX or Audio FX manager and if you have com.lineageos.settings a.k.a Advanced Settings.
Uninstallation: Just remove from Magisk modules.
Tested: Pixel Experience+ Android 10, Realme Q.
Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with these modules and I didn't made them. The original creator/creators are available in the clickable links. The modules should check for compatibility and shouldn't install unless your devcie/system is compatible. Nevertheless I don't take any responsibility for what damage or issues it might cause for you. You decide to install it, your responsibility. Furthermore I don't recommend installing these modules on COS/RUI or the ROMs based on them for their vendor/system is heavily modified thus differs greatly from generic Android system.

Download(3in1 older version):
View attachment ViPERAtmos_Redux_onice-0.02-ACDB.zip
Mirror #1, Mirror #2, Mirror #3
Download (separate and up to date modules):
Since latest AML Magisk module supports ACDB type sound mods you first have to download and install it from Magisk modules repo in case you wish to use these versions but I'll upload it here too nevertheless:
View attachment Audio_Modification_Library-v3.5(54).zip(Mirror#1,Mirror#2,Mirror#3)<--Install this first, the installation of the other three is irrelevant
View attachment DolbyAtmos-RC4-ACDB.zip(Mirror#1,Mirror#2,Mirror#3)
View attachment ViperFX-0.95-ACDB.zip(Mirror#1,Mirror#2,Mirror#3)
View attachment ICEsound-0.4-ACDB.zip(Mirror#1,Mirror#2,Mirror#3)<-- According to more experienced audio module users ICE is unnecessary if you use Dolby Atmos + Viper FX but you're free to use the three together.
Some reported that AML sometimes isn't as compatible yet with these modules so there are people who prefer View attachment ACDB-0.48.zip instead. Installation process is the same. Flash them in this order: ACDB>Dolby or Viper>ICE if you want to.
Do we need aml module installed with this combination?
Will this work with enforcing kernel of stock rom?

No, you don't need aml module for Redux 0.02 version. ACDB module is a brilliant and simple alternative for that and the module has it inbuilt. I believe it should work on enforcing but I can't know for I always use my ROMs with permissive selinux if not I'll flash Permissiver.zip.
I don't know whether or not should this module work on stock ROM but my guess is that it doesn't. Cos/rui has serious limitations and differences from generic Android vendor/system. This module was made to be compatible with most devices with simple android. It should work on most Android 10 based custom ROMs and probably it works on Android 9 based custom ROMs too.

Rui and cos are heavily modified Android systems. There is a high likeliness that serious modifications won't work on those systems.

It was quite expected. I told in two replies of mine that it is not recommended to install this on cos/rui but since not all of you seem to read the comments I'll add this to the main post with updated modules too.

Yes, I've it now added to main post in Disclaimer paragraph too. I wish I could but I'm no developer and seriously bad at scripting because I've mental problems making it highly unlikely for me to achieve progress in development. RUI is quite new and even for experienced developers it is difficult to make things work on RUI. Maybe with time Dolby and Viper will be available for RUI based ROMs too but I can't promise it.

Viper works on evolution, dolby atmos does not work (there is an icon, and when you click on it nothing happens). But the problem arose that there was a wild over-amplification of the sound in the headphones and it began to wheeze strongly at maximum values. How can I make the sound quieter back? Editing mixer files does not help and removing the mod does too. PS. I am writing through a translator

On my pixel experience + I've got Acdb 0.48, Viper FX0.95 and Dolby Atmos RC4 installed. They work fine for me.
Hello,
I installed this mod and afterwards my Audio was not working anymore. (Just Silent, no Error message)
I clean flashed the whole ROM (Evolution X btw) ... still no Audio. I am getting very worried. Do you have any idea on how I can fix that?
Thanks for your help!

Idk what caused the problem but the issue should have been gone with ROM flash. Even disabling them from Magisk ought to solve it for they're just systemless Magisk modules. If Magisk is removed or modules are disabled they have nothing to do with system. So the issue probably lies somewhere else. Try clean flashing your ROM by: 1) full wipe except external SD 2) flash Rui firmware only 3) flash custom rom 4) Flash Magisk
The issue should be gone. If not it's not a module related issue and I can't really help you.
If dolby can't open with Audio Modification Library
To install
- Flash ACBD-0.48.zip ( flash with add module in magisk)
- Reboot
Flash Dolby or Viper ( flash with add module in magisk)
- Reboot
- Done

i'm using derpfest Realme 5 Pro
