To make Viper4android work youtube and other apps , install Viper4android Magisk module. Once you complete the driver installation, reboot your device.
***** Please proceed with caution *****
You are modifying the system files. Install a root explorer, i personally use FX explorer ( no ads edition ) from playstore. Mount Vendor as R/w ( Go to the side menu of FX explorer and enable root access from settings ).
1. Access /vendor folder
2. Press the lock button on the top to access the folder with root access. Do the same step for /vendor/etc/
3. Select audio_effects.conf and from the top right hand corner select "Security", ( the file is located in the /vendor/etc folder.
4. Note the permissions set for the file. ( I took a screenshot to remember the permissions )
5. Uncheck all permissions, close after confirmation
6. Reboot your phone and once again attempt to open any music app / youtube to get the viper4android to work.
Again, please proceed with caution as this is a system file, please backup the file.
There are also module for that up in the magisk repo(and here) called audio compability patch and audio modification library
Yeah, no. Just use Viper4Android + Audio Compatibility Patch + Audio Modification Library. Same result, but systemlessly.
I didn't see a thread for this and hence I did the steps. But thanks for pointing it out. @jerryhou85 can u please close the thread. Apologies for the trouble.

even it is a simple method,
I will not be in anyway responsible for any damage this might cause to your phone.
if you'll follow the instructions correctly, then everything will be fine.
hit THANKS, if I'm helped you
Hi everyone.
Today I'm posting a method to change your status bar, dialer, contacts or any other system app with a custom app that's usually more beautiful and works better. This method, as for me, is much safer than flashing. Also I'd recommend this if you want to avoid the chances of a person at the service center (if you brick your device while flashing a new Rom) detecting that your phone's rooted by finding the recovery installed.
BEFORE I POST THE TRICKS I'LL HAVE TO WARN YOU, AS A FORMALITY THAT ANY DAMAGE CAUSED TO YOUR DEVICE IN ANY WAY DIRECT OR INDIRECT DUE TO THIS POST SHALL BE SOLELY YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.READ ANY FURTHER ONLY IF YOU AGREE TO THIS.
Why would anyone want to use this method ?
Because the flashing method didn't work or maybe coz it bricked your phone. You might also want to try the lucky patcher method out if you don't want to install CWM or just for an adventure Here's how you do it :
1. First, download the given zip file or the file/folder which has your required SystemUI.apk.
2. Extract the systemui.apk in the zip to ur sd card.
3. Backup ur rom (just in case) and also backup the status bar app using titanium backup (preferred) or copy SystemUI.apk n SystemUI.odex to any location on ur sdcard.
4. Force close status bar/ the system app using defaulttask manager.
[Optional]
5. Use any app like root apps uninstall or titanium backup (preferred) to uninstall the system app status bar or using any root enabled file browser delete /system/app/SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex.
6. [mod edit: Lucky patcher references removed]
7. Go to tools, select patch to android, and check the first three options. The phone will reboot.
8.Open the app, Touch the rebuild and install option.
9. Select sdcard n browse to the SystemUI.apk u extracted. 10. From the list of options select install as system application. Click yes when asked to reboot.
11. After reboot you'll see ur new status bar/ newly installed app.
NOTE: DO NOT USE THIS Method to install the framework-res.apk or to install any framework mod as it won't work.Also I personally would recommend that you keep away from flashing/replacing the framework-res.apk as it bricked my phone when I tried to.
DON'T FORGET TO HIT THANKS.

Press thanks if I helped.
This is NOT my work I'm only posting a link to the original thread. Fully working! The keyboard is weird but kind of cool.
How I installed. I downloaded every file, I wanted to try it all. then extracted them all to the same folder. Then I copied the priv-app folder into System root/system using FX Explorer (you need root) any root Explorer will do the trick. After that just reboot. With the launcher you can use icon packs as well!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3244542
Don't forget to thank @entrysky for all his hard work.
Mentions that CWM or TWRP Recoveries are needed?
I just extracted the zips then copied the priv-app into System using a root explorer and rebooted. Worked for me, I'm guessing flashfire might work but could take longer to do.
Hope this helps.

Still not quite sure exactly what you are doing here. Each Zip has it's own priv-app folder. What exactly are you combining before putting it into the system folder?
FYI: Flashing zips in order with Flashfire didn't work.
I extracted each one into the same folder, so all the apps ended up in the same priv-app folder as seen in this pic. Then I copied the priv-app folder.
Here is a step by step guide with pictures.
1) download the files.
2) get RAR from Google play. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarlab.rar
3) open RAR and go to where you download the files, select all the files you want (see first PIC)
4) click the extract button and tick overwrite without prompt. (See PIC 2) then click OK.
5) using a root explorer open the files you just extracted i use FX
6) open the system folder (see PIC 3)
7) copy priv-app (see PIC 4+5)
8) go to your system(ROOT) (see PIC 6)
9) scroll down to the system folder then open it (see PIC 7)
10) in FX there is a padlock at the top to allow read/write click this (see PIC 8, 9 and 10)
11) Go to clipboard then paste select merge/overwrite (see PIC 11 and 12)
12) Long press the middle button on the back of your phone in the middle of volume up/down and select reboot.
13) click thanks

Very much appreciate the effort! Unfortunately, even though I followed your directions perfectly, I still don't have any of the apps. I'm not sure if using flashfire to flash the files previously screwed something up.
That's strange? Did you download 1-4 as these are the main files you need. As you can see its worked for me. Have you tried to fix permissions?
Thank you for sharing. BTW, have you tried BB HUB? also, what about permissions? Maybe I missed but you didnt mentioned anything about it.
I've used the hub its quite handy having all your notifications in one place, also the password keeper is very handy for storing and generating passwords.
Permissions need to be 644 there are apps which will fix it all automatically for you or you can do it manual set to read/write then read and read. See PIC
I have copied resources, productivity edge, services, launcher and hub, but nothing works. Changed permissions for folders and files.. I took only priv folders from zips and coppied to system..
That's strange, i can't be the only one it works for? Did you download the BlackBerry exchange services fixed?

priv folder in fixed zip is empty, no apk inside... btw I extradited it on PC, then transferred to sd.
Strange? I've zipped what I used and uploaded it to my Google drive there is also 2 apps in the app folder I didn't bother with these t.b.h. I've only just noticed them lol. Try extracting the zip the copy app and pri-app into your root system folder let me know if it works? You might have a corrupt download or 2.

As many have asked about this, I am writing this tutorial. It is a simple trick. But for that you need to root your device or atleast have TWRP recovery installed. I am going to give two methods, if first simpler method does not work (it does not for me), then go to second.
If you know how to edit build.prop, then just do this, add 3 lines given below:
Code:
ro.hdmi.enable=true
ro.hdmi.mirror.enable=true
persist.debug.wfd.enable=1
If you have any issues see method 2.
If you don't know what is build.prop don't worry, I will say steps.
Method 1
This method involves directly editing the build.prop using es file explorer.
Download ES File Explorer from play store
Enable "Root Explorer" in ES and give root permission. Click the "Root Explorer" and then "mount R/W" and then mount system "RW".
Now click "device" in ES and then go to "system" folder, you will find a file named "build.prop".
Open that file in ES note editor which is already installed by ES. Click pencil icon to edit.
Scroll to last and then add the 3 lines I mentioned in this thread and save the file.
Now simply exit the app and restart your device.
Now open settings then display then cast, click 3 dots on top right and enable Wireless Display.
Method 2
As I seen in many phone, the build.prop file restores to original during reboot, which is causing the method 1 to not work, so use this method to to do the edit from TWRP file manager. This method worked perfectly in my phone. See steps below:
Follow till 3rd step in method 1 and just copy the file "build.prop" to Internal storage.
Now edit the copied file in internal storage as mentioned in 4th and 5th step of method 1 by adding 3 lines.
Reboot to twrp recovery, you may use the app named Quick Reboot [ROOT] from play store.
Now in TWRP go to Advanced and then choose file manager.
Scroll down and go to the folder "sdcard" that is your internal storage. Now click the build.prop file there and choose copy.
Now go to system folder and copy/paste the file.
Reboot to android. Now do 7th step in method 1.
Screen cast can be enabled by magisk too. See this https://www.xda-developers.com/magi...iracast-and-tethering-and-disable-adb-notify/
For me that did not work so I myself made magisk module zip. Please check the attachment. Just download and install from magisk or twrp. It is tested to work in magisk 15.0+
Note this method may work in other phones too, but I don't have those phones with me. I have received many messages asking how to do this, so I am making this to help all of them.
Thanks to Dhruv_Agarwal in Telegram for giving me the 3 lines of code.

Hi !
If I flash the attached file "screen cast enabler.zip", by adb , will that work for me? I have lenovo k8 plus oreo, latest version. (Unrooted, but still the bootloader is unlocked)
Using SuperSU, BusyBox, ES File Explorer, and can't seem to get this app to process the audio. It's installed and the Viper app opens, but doing the thing where it asks me to install drivers everytime. I've tried these threads to troubleshoot:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-viper4android-install-the-proper-way-root-required.3691597/
I'm getting stuck at finding the soundfx folder in /system/lib/soundfx/
For some reason in File Explorer (and I've tried Root Browser too) I can't see the soundfx folder but I think it's there because when I try to create one it says can't use this name because folder already exists.
Also on step 4: 4. This step is dependent on your setup. If you are using a permissive kernel this is not necessary. If you're using SuperSU with an enforcing kernel you'll need to flash the ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip that is included in the attached zip file.
I am using SuperSU, but I have no idea how to flash the zip file they are talking about, and I don't know how to open a .zip files on this operating system.
I think there might be other ways to troubleshoot this problem because I've also found this link as well offering a different approach:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...w-features-7-0-support.2191223/#post-39156761
The thing with this link above is I don't know the difference between a system app and a user app. I've been working on this for a few days now, and am trying to find a way to bounce ideas off of someone who understands this better than I do. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks again guys!
