I am part of the team for Ainur Sauron, and I am here to present improved audio on the Le Max 2. Sauron has a userconfig which can be adjusted. Download the latest from there and place the attached file at /sdcard before installing. Make sure to remove the '.txt' at the end of the file too! Enjoy :victory:
Impedance is currently set to 16Ω which can be changed to whatever you desire. To set edit the attached sauron_useroptions file and change qc.impedance to whatever your headphones impedance is in Ohms multiplied by 1000 (eg. for 22Ω it would be 22000).
Tested by @I_Raptor_I on his x2, if it doesn't work just send me a log
EDIT: Attached the file
I did not know that anyone else was using Ainur Sauron on LeX2 It really improves the audio quality significantly on Oreo!
Quick question - why does it say "Axon 7" during installation procedure?

Hello GaetanoS.89, first things first uninstall the MK II Magisk module. Now place the given text file in /sdcard folder, then go and flash that module again, it should state that it has detected the user options text file and that's it.

Magisk isn't needed as it'll install with any configuration. All you need to do is placed the attched file at /sdcard (called Internal Storage) and rename it to sauron_useroptions (remove the .txt. at the end).

Did it, and after What I have to do?
@Lazerlord: I tried your mod today by described method.
I copied "sauron_useroptions" into sdcard folder by TWRP file explorer.
Afterwards I flashed latest zip (17.03.) using TWRP. Everything was fine with it during this.
Wiped chache and dalvik and rebooted without any problems.
Result: No ringtone anymore, no message sound, but media sound works fine and was adjustable, no app or menue occoured in regard to your mod. I did not check more.
I could succesfully remove your mod by described method (flash again same file from TWRP)
After removal everything was fine as before :good:

I removed the "sauron_useroptions" from sdcard folder (as it was described in the file itself, that UO is not mandatory) and reflashed the zip-file again.
With this way everything works !
Will read a little bit the instructions now...
Generaly I have to say I am using Leeco CDLA as headphones atm which are extraordinary by themselves.
So maybe I will use adapter for 3,5mm jack whithin next days and try some user options. Leeco Loadspeaker judgement is difficult imho.
Also new AEX is very good ROM in regard to speaker sound I have to say.
On Oreo 8.1.0. PixelRevenge 15.1 works very well in music playback. He gave me a strange problem. I removed the system camera that I can not install anymore. I had to put another one. I have not tried calls and notifications yet
edit:- Notifications and ringtones ok. In-call audio worsened, the voice is less clear. In speakerphone there is a loud hiss that makes the speakerphone unusable

We're working on a fix for the mixer_paths that'll correct notifications, ringtones, and other audio. I'm happy that you're enjoying music playback. However, the system camera app problem is nothing to do with Sauron it's probably a ROM issue, or possibly even a Magisk issue.
I've installed this Mod by using Magisk 16.0 (v5.6.4) on RR 6.0(22-03-18).
Before I did this I placed the file sauron_useroptions to /sdcard folder.
During the installation Magisk showed that the useroption file was found and used for the installation.
In Poweramp I get the message that there is a problem with app native libraries (libampffmpeg.so).
I don't know whether the error message has something to do with that, but the volume control in Poweramp after flashing this modul is faulty.
Just when the volume is set the half I can hear anything. The volume control steps seems to be broken, but just in Poweramp.(After uninstalling, the issue is gone, but the error message is still sthere)
In other Apps the volume control is normal.
Since I use RR 6.0(8.1) instead of RR 5.8.5(7.1.2) the speaker sounds cheap tinny - Ainur Sauron didn't help to solve this issue. I removed AudioFX, can this be the reason?
It's difficult to describe the issue "cheap tinny", but I think the audio drivers have problems to divorce the difference frequences.
On RR 5.85. the speaker was more "smooth" and the frequences were divorced much better.
Sorry for my bad english and the critic. I think I'm an individual case and other people don't have the problems which I have, but in my case, the Mod seems not to improve the audio quality.

I've heard from @I_Raptor_I that RR already has a loss in audio quality. I advise the use of another ROM and if the tinnyness persists use the attached Sauron zip.
The Poweramp problem is probably due to DVC (Direct Volume Control) in their FAQ they state it may cause issues with 24-bit or HQ audio. The native libraries issue is not related to Ainur as it doesn't touch that file.
About the audio. ROM (which Sauron edits) isn't the only thing that contributes. the HAL and kernel do too, so RR's bad audio may not be able to be fixed or corrected by Ainur but we'll take a look into it.
Ok guys, @LazerL0rd is kindly developing a very nice Oreo kernel for our Le Max 2 improving the speeds dramatically and most importantly audio, he has already optimized our Qualcomm DSP, expect a very nice audio experience on Oreo from now on so stay tuned and make sure to thank LazerL0rd for his hard work, he doesn't even have a Le Max 2 and yet he is spending hours making this kernel for us
Magisk viper?
I have installed viper on RR Oreo via magisk and audio quality is now on point with how it worked through flashing viper and Dolby Atmos on the nugart RR via twrp. There are a couple of things to consider though, viper must be activated before listening to music through your app, viper does not work over Bluetooth by default in viper meaning you must go to viper settings and set mode to compatibility from normal and then viper will work over Bluetooth. The last thing, and I can't remember if this was true on nugart but viper seams to only work with music that you have downloaded to your device and will not work with streaming music from the web.

Just wanna share simple modification for our beloved 5T.
This module allows the earpiece to be used as speaker, and enable true stereo mode.
*np: flash at ur own risk
Instruction:
1. flash via magisk manager
2. you're good to go
if you use the version with OP5TSpeakerCtrl app, please read this
chdloc said:
"Mono" mode -- the main loudspeaker's volume is set to maximum (stock behavior) and it is fed with a downmix of the left and right channels (also stock behavior)
"Stereo" mode -- the main loudspeaker's volume is lowered to match the volume of the earpiece and is fed with the right audio channel (true stereo)
In "Adaptive" mode, stereo operation is applied when the screen is on and mono when the screen is off. In "Stock" mode (I should have named it "Manual"), the mode of operation does not change automatically, but is manually selected by tapping the "Mono" and "Stereo" buttons in the app's permanent notification.

I was going to try this on 8.1 Omni, but it would probably break the sound all together since the mixer path file is completely different.
What lines do you edit to change it? I can just do my own editing.

Lol really now?
Works great!
Only small niggle: it is possible to adjust the volume of the two speakers? As of now the sound coming from the earpiece is lower (which I can understand as it most probably is a much smaller speaker) but if it would be possible to lower the volume coming from the main speaker the balance would be much improved
But for now: much better already :good:

Viper and dolby sound really bad on poco for some reason. Too much static noise and random squeaks which hamper the hearing experience. Going to try Ainur and see how it sounds.

I've had LG G3 with Quad DAC or whatever, and Poco sounds the same, if not even better (can go volume to 11, for sure) compared with it.
Sound is clear, good bass on headphones, etc.
It somewhat depends on the music player , good quality headphones, and eq settings, but with all turned off, completely satisfying.

Compared to my LG v20(quad dac) when comes to soundquality i dont miss my LG much its only better by maybe a very small margin. Ofcourse the LG dac has much more volume level because it can drive 600ohm headphones

Hi,
So whoever is using a custom ROM on Poco F1, has faced onething for sure after flashing Viper4Android or any other sound mod; and that is sound distortion when getting notifications.
I see a lot of people asking for a solution and until now we have all been telling them to either remove SoundFX folder from /Vendor/lib and /Vendor/lib64 or renaming the volumelistener.so in order for Viper to work properly.
While the above methods are correct, but it requires messing with the device manually and sometimes it becomes hard to revert back to the original state if necessary (read Bluetooth audio issue).
I have searched a lot for a solution which is more easy and can be resolved instantly if found any bug. And finally I have found a Magisk module which does exactly what we are seeking for.
The name of the Magisk module is NOTIFICATION HELPER REMOVER. It is available on Magisk repo or can be downloaded from here: https://zackptg5.com/android.php#nhr (credit goes to @Zackptg5).
Once downloaded, flash it on Magisk and when asked to choose in between volume up and down, press Volume Down and it will do the job for you. AML is not required. Once done, just reboot the device and send any message to your device and see. No more sound distortion!!
Basically, the module patches volume listener, but systemlessly. Which means you don't need to boot into twrp and mess with the Vendor partition. Anytime you wish to revert back to the original state, just uninstall the module and you are good to go.
I know the module has been there for quite sometime, but the reason of my post is to make people aware of it (since a lot of people actually don't know about it or overlook it).
Please note that I am not the developer of the module and if any credit is to be given, it should go to the developer himself.
If anyone still finds something wrong on this post, please let me know. I will rectify it immediately.

not working for me, I still have the problem with whatsapp . Im in the last version of xiaomi eu beta
When I try to flash notification helper, it is stuck. I have to restart the device.
So I went the route of deleting the soundfx files and now I can't use any type of sound modifiers like equalizers. How can I fix this?
I uninstalled viper and any other audio modules and still have sound distortion. help?

Hi,
So whoever is using a custom ROM on Poco F1, has faced onething for sure after flashing Viper4Android or any other sound mod; and that is sound distortion when getting notifications.
I see a lot of people asking for a solution and until now we have all been telling them to either remove SoundFX folder from /Vendor/lib and /Vendor/lib64 or renaming the volumelistener.so in order for Viper to work properly.
While the above methods are correct, but it requires messing with the device manually and sometimes it becomes hard to revert back to the original state if necessary (read Bluetooth audio issue).
I have searched a lot for a solution which is more easy and can be resolved instantly if found any bug. And finally I have found a Magisk module which does exactly what we are seeking for.
The name of the Magisk module is NOTIFICATION HELPER REMOVER. It is available on Magisk repo or can be downloaded from here: https://zackptg5.com/android.php#nhr (credit goes to @Zackptg5).
Once downloaded, flash it on Magisk and when asked to choose in between volume up and down, press Volume Down and it will do the job for you. AML is not required. Once done, just reboot the device and send any message to your device and see. No more sound distortion!!
Basically, the module patches volume listener, but systemlessly. Which means you don't need to boot into twrp and mess with the Vendor partition. Anytime you wish to revert back to the original state, just uninstall the module and you are good to go.
I know the module has been there for quite sometime, but the reason of my post is to make people aware of it (since a lot of people actually don't know about it or overlook it).
Please note that I am not the developer of the module and if any credit is to be given, it should go to the developer himself.
If anyone still finds something wrong on this post, please let me know. I will rectify it immediately.

HUGE THANKS! this method also works on redmi note 8 using GSI.
Help me
I used costum ROM and I heared noise in some games. Then I use the way you suggest, the noise on the games gone but the calls go on speaker when i answer them. Would you please guide me how to solve the problem?
thank you very much for your advice, cool! It works on Umidigi F1 with Evolution X 4.1 too.
INTRODUCTION
*WARNING USE AT YOUR OWN RISKS*
Though the poco F1 has stereo speakers, the earpiece is sort of weak in comparison to bottom one and so the sound quality falls short when compared to other phones with dual speakers. With this guide, you can make your phone sound much balanced, immersive and better. Basically what it does is increase audio coming out from earpiece by using viper in combination with Dolby. Also this does not increases sound from earpiece beyond max level but instead reduces volume of bottom speaker slightly so it will not damage your speaker
REQUIREMENTS
Any custom rom with magisk and permissive SElinux
STEPS
1. Flash permissiver zip or use SElinux switcher to make SElinux permissive for Dolby module to work
2. Flash viper4a rootless zip in TWRP
3. Flash v4afx zip in magisk then reboot and test if Viper4A is successfully installed and working
4. Flash ACDB zip first in magisk then flash dolby audio zip and then reboot. You should now have moto audio app installed and working.
5. Put XHR WideFX irs file to main storage/Android/data/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx/files/Kernel
6. In Viper, enable convolver then choose the file to enable it.
7. For dolby, the default settings (smart audio) is great but personally I use film mode with surround sound and volume leveller enabled.
I have tested this in evolution X rom and it should work in other roms also. For stock rom it may require a custom kernel. If Dolby Atmos doesn't work then try Dolby Digital instead.
If you face issues like Dolby getting disabled automatically then heading to viper settings and switching Attach Audio Effects toggle or rebooting the system fixes it. If dolby app force closes then reflash it and clear catch after installation

Do you want to skip audio_policy patching? (Original acp before became 3in1 module)

Would you like to skip notification_helper remover?
Vol+ = yes, Vol- = no
Would you like to skip usb policy patching for usb dacs?
Vol+ = yes, Vol- = no
Should i skip this ? Or No ? Is this really matter ? because i really dont know what their usage for, so i just skip it
and also
on STEP 2, when i installing viper4a rootless in twrp it say done but i got red warning it say "unable to mount system"
so it is successfull or nah ? i confuse
i already installed v4afx via magisk ( STEP 3 ) and it working.

On first choose no then select patch (new logic) then again choose no for notification helper and select remove volume listener library
Even if you skipped it wouldn't matter much because ACP is used just to fix audio not working in some apps and it does slightly enhances audio quality and volume.
For usb dac you can choose yes if you don't use wired headphones from usb c port
For viper though, you shouldn't get that warning
Maybe problem could be in your twrp
Manually mount system in twrp then try flashing again. If it didn't work you may have to reflash recovery
But you said that it is working? Did you tested the audio also? Because the magisk module only installs the app and some configs. The drivers are installed from recovery. You can also tap on the chip like icon button in viper and it should show the driver info and enabled as yes properly

Yes even tho i got warning, but it properly working. I already use it like 6hour, all is working fine.
but when i installing Dolby Atmos, i got bootloop and force me to bootloader. but when restarting phone i can access twrp, just removing them in module via twrp everything is back normal.
but i think it doesnt support latest MIUI Global 11.0.4 ? i got stock MIUI11
Anyway, after wiping module via twrp my viper now doesnt have driver on the app. i already doing the exactly same step 1 - 3 to install viper and it didnt work rightnow. driver still doesnt work even tho i tried installing this many times.
I already go to viper4x thread, someone say need to overwrite 2 file ( post-fs-data.sh & sepolicy.rule ) but still doesnt fix driver.
maybe you know how to ? :laugh:

Dolby Atmos is known to not work as of now in stock kernel or roms for many devices as it is still under development. You can try dolby digital instead
But are you getting the same error on twrp for viper? With system not mounting?
Unfortunately I don't have much idea for viper so I can help you till the limits of my knowledge only
Anybody make it work with Pixel Experience ROM 10.0'
Hi, I want to install it and I have Pixel Experience ROM 10.0 Official. I'm curious if anybody successfully instaled it on this ROM.
Thanks

INTRODUCTION
Though the poco F1 has stereo speakers, the earpiece is kinda weak in comparison to bottom one and so it doesn't give that true stereo like audio performance (surround sound) compared to other phones with dual speakers. But with this guide, you can make your phone sound much balanced, immersive and better with Dolby Atmos and Viper. It actually feels like if the sound is coming towards you and not from the side
This requires the XHR WideFX irs. This is the only one I found till now which worked so perfectly with atmos after testing 500+ irs files.
REQUIREMENTS
Any android 9+ rom with magisk and permissive SElinux
STEPS
1. Install Audio Compability Patch first in magisk then reboot
2. Flash viper4a rootless zip in TWRP
3. Flash v4afx zip in magisk then again reboot and confirm if Viper4A is successfully installed and working
4. Flash Dolby Atmos zip file in magisk (you can download it from guitardedhero's post also for new version) and reboot. You should have both Dolby Atmos and Viper4A working at this point
5. Now to get that stereo sound effect, put XHR WideFX irs file in main storage/Viper4Android/Kernel folder
6. Open Viper and enable convolver then choose the same.
You can now test the sound and enjoy the stereo sound effect. It is best for gaming or while watching movies.
I have tested this in evolution X 4.0 rom and it should work in other roms also but I am not sure for OOS. For stock rom it may require a custom kernel. If it works in your rom then please comment down below so that others could also know it.
If you face issues regarding Dolby getting disabled automatically then heading to viper settings and switching Attach Audio Effects toggle or rebooting the system fixes it.

I have personally tested it in PE pie and Evo X 10 version. But this one should work in any android 10 based custom rom as long as you don't have any other audio mods installed conflicting it or else you may require AML also.

Viper is working fine but after installing Dolby Atmos and rebooting i am stuck at Fastboot, had to remove the dolby module.
Is this related to Miui 11 or some selinux problem??
Please suggest some workaround.
Will this work on miui 11?

Looks like it doesn't work in miui as of now
But you can try dolby digital instead which is also good. Dolby Atmos is still like an early release and currently only works in custom roms and kernels
But remember to choose the IRS file in viper. That makes the earpiece work more balanced. Dolby is just to further enhance the sound quality.

Same is happening in Evolution X I'm stuck at bootloader..
It's not even working in a custom rom.
Works perfectly with Pixel Experience (Android9) + No Gravity Karnel.
Thank you, so wonderful!
Thanks for stereo convolver file, but dolby atmos giving bootloop on miui 11.0.6 android 10
I'm running Pixel Experience Plus Android 10 on my poco. I've managed to get V4A to work but when I flash Dolby Atmos and reboot the device and try to open it nothing happens and after some time and after 10-15 attempts of trying to open it a crash message appears. I also tried installing Dolby Digital Plus for Android Q but that crashes as well

Make sure that SELinux is permissive as they will not work in enforcing
Flash permissiver zip file to fix it
I am also currently on PE+ latest and have not encountered any such issues
My recommendation is use Dolby digital instead as it is more stable (v7.2)

Yes I have my bootloader unlocked, I have magisk, and I have TWRP, the thing that I do not understand is what is that mixer_paths and where should I put it. That's what I don't understand. Do I have to flash the module, and then the module creates a folder where I have to put the mixer_paths in?

Same here. Latest xiaomi.eu rom and nothing happened but on the other hand the sound on earphones was totally disabled so I removed the module and everything became fine again.

Yeah, this is what I couldn't understand at the beginning as well, but later sanek posted 2 download links, one of which leads to a zip file download. This is what we need. After downloading it, you can just flash it (zip file) using either TWRP or magisk.
Doesn't work
I'm on last beta rom from xiaomi.eu
Works great on PE rom. Thanks
Is it possible to make it work on eu?
Got this working on LineageOS 17.1 before I swapped it to another Rom.
Didn't run into any issues, I will say it was difficult at first to determine if it did anything, I could hear something extra but it was hard to identify I had to get my heavy case that makes blocking the normal speaker silent to figure it out. Once I did I could notice the difference more critically.
Overall, it did add a bit more to the top end I would say.
Bug found on Crdroid 6.6
Mod disables after headphones are inserted and removed. Reverts to only using single bottom firing speaker. Any way to fix?
Pretty nice mod. I would like a bit louder the top speaker, but it sounds great.
