[Q] Unable to install driver for Viper4Android XHIFI

Friends
I just downloaded the Viper4ANDROID XHIFI Mod on my rooted Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.3 and also has BusyBox 1.21.1 installed
After installing V4A when I opened the app I was prompted with the driver I want to install; not knowing which is the right one for me I selected CortexAX with NEON (please advise me on the best to choose)
After that I repeatedly got the message "Driver install failed. Please confirm your phone has been rooted and busybox installed" - both of which has been done already. No matter which driver I select, I keep getting the same error.
I previously installed the V4A available on the Play Store but thought of getting the one straight from XDA
Please advise on how to get the driver installed and which is the right one for me
Many thanks!

There's a reply the official thread mentioning mounting with Terminal Emulator. I don't have enough post count to ask that member if there is anything necessary after installing drivers, like unmounting, or anything else.

Did you ever solve this issue? I'm seeing the same problem.

Hello
Viper4Android XHIFI project has been stopped now by the developer .First try different drivers during installation .If it doesn't work try reinstalling busybox , it happened to me sometime back . Before that try V4A FX app also if it works then XHIFI may be incompatible . Last chance is to get the desired V4A driver (libv4a_xx_xx.so kernel file) from extracting apk and to place it in /system/lib/audio/ folder manually and reboot .
Hope it works

Thanks. V4A FX app appeared to install the driver fine, and I guess I don't need XHiFi if I have that. However, even though it is installed, it doesn't sound as if it is having any effect. I'll try uninstalling and re-installing it again.

Cheers ! Did you reboot after installing V4A FX driver ? If not do it and by itself V4A will be disabled and you should enable it in the master power controls in different sections (phone-speaker,headset,bluetooth,usb) of V4A app . Then you can modify each settings for your needs in realtime while hearing music . You can also check if driver is working or not in options/Driver Status . If any of these doesn't work use FX compatible mode in options .
Hit Thanks if it works !!

Things are working now, thanks. I wound up needing to remove XHiFI and V4A FX, then re-installed just V4A, re-installed the driver, rebooted, reset it to be default music effect, and it's working again.

I had this issue with my LG G2 (Verizon model) I was trying to install the Viper driver (High Quality sound) but my busybox couldn't install. "Unable to verify my root" error. So I tried a different route...
Use this app to install busybox (instead of the official one) and it should work.

Where can I find that kernel file? I am having the same issue. The message is "Driver Install Failed, the busybox found on your device does not work.
This usually means you installed the wrong or broken busybox, V4A needs stericson bisybox to work. if you sure about having installed the proper busybox, then please confirm your device has been totally rooted."
Phone- Sony Xperia C
1. My device is properly rooted.
2. Busybox is same to which the app redirects.
What are my options?

Try reinstalling busybox from this app and try again. Manual installation of V4A driver is not working now.

This fixed it for me:
"If anyone is having trouble installing driver for Viper4Android Just go to superSu settings and uncheck the namespace checkbox and reboot. After that the driver for Viper will install."

How to install Viper4Android on S7 Edge?

You DON'T need permissive kernel for v4a any more..after hundereds of trials and errors I just downloaded newest apk from original v4a thread, put it in private-apps folder then set correct permitions rw-r-r, restarted device and it works flowellesly ! I have stock enforced kernel.

Tried hundered of ways here as well,
Mine just keeps asking to install the damn driver all the time mate, and even if installed, after reboot - it just asks again to install/update the driver again.
Tried with the su.policy zip flash as well. Still cant get it to work!
Tried with the MM compatible newest APK and placed it in Priv-app. Guess that's what you did too. Cant figure out what I'm missing here.

It happens to me also.That means you did NOT properly root device.Error with constant driver install is because busybox..I rerooted device ,wiped data for SU, and granted permission to busybox again.DO NOT use any other Viper app then original one from thread !

Youv'e been a lot helpful mate,
I think I'm getting somewhere, Could you please tell me which busybox did you use?
Is it the Stericsson version, or the Meefik ?

Stericsson one. I hac problems as you did and concluded the most simple one was the best..All that modded Viper apps doesn't do any use.Just use original one,give permissions in private-apps, restart device and that is it

which music players support this? cuz so far all i see is status normal processing no

Men! You put so much hope in my heart. Please, could you be so nice and prepare step by step to do list? I personally would ask you about 'give permissionso in private-apps'. Could you explain? Do you copy v4a to priv-apps? Where from? What permissions? And about busy box: when I open it it shows me that it is installed in su/xbin... in what folder did you install busybox? And one about reroot: did you go to su and choose: full unroot before flashing su again? And what about mount namespaces: checked or unchecked in su? Have to tell you that I've tried so much different ways and still v4a doesn't work. I would love to try your way but please put some lights here. Thanks!

I've tried my best, in all possible variables and finally decided to give up after wasting 3 straight days of a perfect weekend.
My Driver just doesn't stick and I've tried all alternative installation methods. I've kept backups of system/*.* so all damages were reversed without any flashing. Root, Busybox everything runs perfectly and tested everything for integrity.
So far I've cornered the issue to Systemless Root, which seems to be the only entity having issues with v4a. Until a proper answer is digged up, I'm gonna stick with my Note 5 which has this working on System-Mode Root. (The driver didn't stick on the Note 5 when I tried to use it with System-less) Luckily the Note 5 is still on LP, with Su 2.64.
Good Luck to those who are trying, and thanks to all who helped!

Yes. Actually there is a perfect package from @guitardedhero. You have to be rooted, busyboxed, twrp'ed. Flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3701983&d=1459364213
It is Viper Atmos Sony Beats edition working beautifully on ny S7E. Three more step to do after flashing: 1. freeze SoundAlive and AdaptSound, reboot. 2. go to system preferences and check whether Viper has memory access granted. 3. go to SuperSu and DISABLE 'Mount namespace separation', reboot. Done!
Btw. If you want to play with Profiles inside Viper, go to your internal memory using root explorer and inside Viper folder create folder called 'Profiles'.
Btw2. 6.0.1new abowe destroy your conf files. Hope you have backup.
Better flash @guitardedhero mod on fresh rooted rom. hope you enjoy.
Btw3. Sound is AMAZING!

Thanks for your reply!
Just after I asked for help here, i found a driverless package from @guitardedhero that worked! Glad to know you did it too, mate! :highfive:

Working but 10 second later turn normal mod
Why do you think's going on?
For example in youtube, 10 second viber4android active, later deactivate.

Trying to get Viper4FX sound mod to work with my Honor8

Hey guys,
I'm into the Android from the very beginning and I would love to get rid of a problem which is driving me crazy for some time
I was trying to flash the Viper driver to get the great sound quality again. I'm now on the latest nougat.
Already unlocked the bootloader, rooted it and flashed the TWRP. Saw an thread about how to install it properly on the Honor8 and I did everything correct in my opinion.
I have the 1.26.2-meefik busybox now installed in system/xbin path (which seems to be working correctly overall) and otherwise everything seems working good except that when I try to open the Viper it says that I don't have root OR that i have to install the driver, and after pressing yes my phone just reboots and does the very same thing as previously.
Am I missing something?
Feel free to ask something more if you need.

I had this same situation, just kept installing the driver, reboot, repeat, making no progress... I finally got mine to work thank goodness! Are you remembering to use a root file Explorer and go to /vendor/etc and rename the file named audio_effects.config to audio_effects.config.bak after flashing but before installing V4A? That was my main problem. And you have to be sure to do it on a clean setup, so if you've already installed V4A you need to clean out and start again. Also u need a kernel auditor to set selinux to permissive upon boot. These two steps are key...

3. opem BusyBox tap Install
4. open Kernel Adiutor and go to Misc Controls, change Current SELinux Status: Permissive (after reboot SELinux stay premissive :good
5. flash Viper4 via TWRP
6. go to folder: root/vendor/etc and rename file from audio_effects.conf to audio_effects.conf.bak

Problem installing viper4android.

Hi guys,
I am using the optimized stock rom located here. aaaaawawawaa using BitO-KU kernel. The sound is very low on my Nvidia Shield k1. I have done the tweaks located here. In the thread it says that viper4android makes a big difference as well. When I try to install viper4android I keep getting an I/O error when trying to install the driver. I downloaded SELinux changer but when I launch it I am getting an error in it as well. It says the app was unable to gain root access. I checked in supersu and SELinuxModeChanger does have root access. So I don't understand why it will not work either. In terminal emmulator it says that permissive mode is enabled. Can someone please let me know what I'm doing wrong? I would really like to get viper4android working.
Thank you,
Rocky

1. It isn't good rom, I've had it only two days. Stock kernel is better too.
2. I'm on stock 5.2(K1), rooted with Magisk 14, installed M modules:
V4A 2.0 by ahrion, busybox by osm0sis. V4A works good but I don't need it for speakers. @grimreaper1014
Do you have properly installed busybox?

Just flash Viper4Android using Magisk 14 (its located under downloads tab) and disable AudioFX if you even have that on stock ROM. Then it should work but note that if you get processing error just create a folder named "MagiskManager" and it should work then.

Ok thanks guys. Right now I have SuperSu flashed via recovery. Do I have to remove that somehow to install magisk?

I'm doing a clean install. I'm going back to LinageOS. Where do I create the MagiskManager folder at if I need it? Thanks again for your help fellas. I appreciate it greatly.

@grimreaper1014 create the folder in /storage/emulated/0/ in case it doesn't want to install the module. If it goes without any problems then congrats you have working Viper4Android !
(Make sure you disable AudiFX app in lineageOS before you do any flashing)

If for some reason you (or others) choose this route, you can remove SuperSU (mandatory in order to install Magisk) using the built-in function in the SuperSU app.

Similar setup: stock 5.2 ROM, with Magisk 14, and simply installed the V4A (version 2.0) module by ahrion. I think the module installed busybox (by osm0sis) automatically, as I don't recall doing it myself. But I maybe I'm not remembering that properly.
V4A working great, no messing with SELinux.

[OUTDATED] Sound Mods Working +Install guide

/////
THIS GUIDE WAS FROM THE NOVEMBER SECURITY PATCH ON NOUGAT!!! DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU ARE ON OREO CAUSE YOU WILL LOSE ALL SOUND!
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO USE VIPER ON OREO/PIE DEVICES. PLEASE USE THE MAGISK MODULE AND/OR FIND A BETTER GUIDE WITH A COMPATIBLE ZIP
//////
Okay I have confirmed that sound mods work on the Moto z2 force with no issues whatsoever many probably know that
How to Install:
1.
make sure you have root and TWRP installed on your Moto Z2 force
2.
download this version of A.R.I.S.E.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767141554
3.
Place the zip file in the Internal storage of your device (so its easy to find)
4.
Boot into TWRP recovery and click install
5.
Find the file you put in your internal storage named;
ARISE+Deuteronomy+2.94+Modular+AROMA+Installer.zip
And then swipe to install
6
An install wizard should appear and assuming that you haven't used this before select easy mode on the wizard and make sure you have it set to "install core engine then modules" and spam the hell out of the next button besides those 2 things
7.
TWRP screen should appear and you should boot into your device like normal
8.
ENJOY
SOME NOTES:
A.R.I.S.E AM3D DOES NOT WORK BUT OTHER THAN THAT EVERYTHING ELSE IS FINE
Update: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL MAGNUM OPUS IT WILL FAIL

Man.. I was going to try ARISE, but with all the concerns that I couldn't restore a nandroid because of data partition encryption, I just said screw it and I installed the v4a 2.3.4 module right from Magisk, and it works great with both USB Type-C to 3.5mm and Bluetooth.
I don't know if anyone's noticed or not, but Oreo has an entire section on Bluetooth audio protocol under the development options. Things like sample rate, bit rate, etc etc. I do know that v4a works with all protocols (SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD and LDAC), but if you up the sample rate to 96khz, it will NOT process. I usually use 48khz and it sounds great.

I installed arise and lost all audio on device . I don't know if it's a setting or something in aroma I should not have added or if it's viper settings I messed with .
I need to uninstall this how do I
Or how do I get sound back this is weird

Yes sir, I am. Since I got it working, I haven't touched anything in fear that it'll stop working. I haven't even made a nandroid. Twrp isn't installed, I just booted in it from adb.

Right on! I was also advised not to install TWRP. I flashed it and it seems to be working so far. Having other issues though like my camera and flash (flashlight) don't work now since installing magisk or the v4a which one I'm not sure but I assume magisk.
3/12/18 Update: camera and Flash are working properly now after a wipe Dalvik, cache and reboot.

Is anyone else having issues with viper4android working intermittently on Oreo? Sometimes it works but mostly it doesn't and I have no way to control it, toggling the switches does nothing and it doesn't matter if I reboot or not. It does work sometimes so I know the drivers are installed, and I've tried a fresh install a few times using the 2.3.4 version and the newest 5.0 version which produces the same result.
Is there a setting in magisk or Viper that I need to apply to to get it working seamlessly? I have systemless hosts check-in magisk already for ad blocking. There's got to be something I'm missing here. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks!

I was having this situation, the I disabled the music FX and it's gone for now

Flashlight stops because of selinux

Dolby Atmos for oreo works fine without any problems. You just have to find the working version in the last few pages of the mod thread.

Was able to get the latest ARISE, plus V4A, and Dolby ATMOS Oreo from guitardedhero working. I'm using SuperSU as I'm not a fan of Magisk. Flashed the latest ARISE, including the V4A 2.5.0.5. Crap, I made sure V4A opened and checked that the drivers were installed. But I may have flashed the ViPER4Android_FX_v2505_A7.x_Nougat_IO_test_fix.apk over the ARISE loaded v4a apk....? Try to see if the loaded apk works first. If not, flash Nougat_IO_test_fix.apk over: ViPER4Android_FX_v2505.zip Anyway, use this to set permissive: The.SELinux.Switch.ver.6.0.3.build.603.apk. Reboot. ARISE libs will be there and V4A should work. Sometimes you have to turn off the main power button for the V4A mod, go up to the corner button and exit. Clear out anything in recents. Then open V4A back up, and enable the power button. If music is playing, you will hear the change.
Ok.....Dolby. Go HERE and download the normal zip. Thank the dude, he's done a lot for us audiophiles. Flash it. Reboot. Apps will be there, and will likely forceclose. You have to extract the dolby zip and copy the libs from the dolby/lib and dolby/lib/soundfx files and paste them in the related folders in root /system/vendor and system/vendor/soundfx. You need to set the permissions to rw-r-r (644). Now save/reboot. Apps should work. I'm betting other libs/files weren't installed either, but just those got Atmos working, working well. Still looking through things and will verify later what else wasn't placed.:good:

Quick Question, I have used ARISE and Viper before and really like them but this is a Software Mod. I would just like to clarify that this Software Mod works on the actual Hardware Mod and if it does, does this Software Mod work on the Hardware Mod using a Custom ROM or Kernal? Can anyone confirm that yet?

Sorry about this... You may have to back up your internal then flash back to stock. This guide was from when our device was still on nougat. For Oreo I need you to install the module from MAGISK or find the magnum opus zip
