How to let viper4android on Px5 work system wide? - MTCD Android Head Units Q&A

Hi folks. I'm using my PX5 with Hal9k's rom since a few months now and I'm really satisfied with the sound quality when using viper4android.
The only thing that bothers me is that viper4android only works with my music player neither with BT Audio or Apps like Google Maps.
In the viper4android thread they wrote you should use compatibility mode in viper settings but I don't have this option. I'm on 2.5.0.6. Has anyone a solution for this problem. Thanks in advance.

Equalizer only works with play music but not others apps

Dsp/sound mods on MTCD?

I think I read that the sound mods like Viper's don't work on the MTCD-units, but I can't find it now. Due to the sound chip iirc. Any news on this? Does it work on MTCB units?

Viper4android works on MTCD, I assume it also works on MTCB. Perhaps what you heard references the MTC Radio. V4A does not effect/work on the radio but it works fine for me on spotify.
Really!? Great news! Mind telling me how you installed?

I've both side loaded the APK after downloading it from the fourms here and I've also installed the unsupported one from google play store. I just use the play store one now as it's easier then side loading. Both ways work fine tho
thanks! will install later today.
Played around with this yesterday and can confirm that the unofficial play version works great with everything except the FM radio. I want to check out Dolby Atmos as well, but can only find it as a flashable zip and I guess you can't flash zips from the recovery on these units. Only update images.

FM radio isn't a digital component I bet. FX works by processing a digital sound stream the FM radio basically is just a fm tuner with digital controls that plugs straight into the amp more/less. Output from digital sources is simply muted or fed in alongside the FM signal so FX could never touch it.
is there a Viper4android for dummies guide?
I use V4A ... just need to find the proper IRS files for a Logic 7 Harmon Kardon system

I installed Viper4Android on a Malaysk modded unit and I bricked the sound and buttons. Had to reflash to get it back. Everything was going fine until it asked me to install the driver.
I'm assuming you're talking about Viper FX is that correct?
Viper4Adroid works fine for me... just make sure you have busybox installed, and you may need to have Viper4Android in the system/priv-app folder so it's not killed by the system. Also, make sure MusicFX is disabled.

Yeah I've done the same, what version are you on V4 or v5?
v4 had an issue where sometimes the hard buttons would stop working. you would need to do a delvik cache wipe to fix it. So it may have just been that. No one figured what was setting it off as far as im aware.
question for all yall using V4a , does it show as "speaker"?
If so, anyway we can get subwoofer controls available under other modes like bluetooth or headset?

I'm using Waves Headphones.irs and you can get the irs files from here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/vbpewfdz6o6essc/AAAqEPilx1ZzT5R9cBmQs5v9a?dl=0. I use only IRS and some clarity with XiFi mode and 3.5DB. Also try to lock it from V4A menu, to Bluetooth or USB DOCK and switch to Advanced. Once you'll do that, you will unleash the true power of Viper4Android. You will not be dissapointed

oh man how are you not blowing out your speakers on Waves Headphones? Bass is intersecting with mids big time!
Any other suggestions?

And tested Waves Music too but waves music has almost no bass

I have all the low/mid settings on HU Amp put to 0. I only have IRS and Clarity set on XiFi on 3.5 (nothing else enabled) and those two brings everything I need. If you use Poweramp, you need to disable EQU and Tone too, so you have a clear Viper4Android effect. It doesn't blow the speakers like you think

Hi, i have it installed with the dolby atmos addon. I never used any profiles, i just adjusted the settings myself. I gotta say its the best out there!
I use this mainly for my car audio through bluetooth and USB (Android Auto). Turns my 6 speaker car into a true 360 surround sound system. Its so realistic and worth a try.
Search through XDA which contains guides to install.
***NOTE: Only problem i have at the moment is android auto (when plugged via usb into the cars usb port) seems to disable a.r.i.s.e completely. After checking the driver status, it shows as enabled but processing is disabled, so its not producing the setup i have. Im trying to search the web for a solution.***
Running on Oneplus 3 Cyanogenmod 14.1 lastest release with Google assistant mod
Have fun!

Equalizer apps

Does anyone know of the best equalizer apps for our phones? I've used a couple in the past and it had good bass, but it dropped the volume. And I'm asking of an app that would improve the sound from my BT to my vehicle to play my music. Oh, I use Google Play music as my source too.
Thanks in advance.
There's a built in equalizer in the phone settings. Probably won't find one that works right as an installed app.
I use...
Power amp. There is an equalizer in that app that works better than the stock equalizer.
for the S8 or Note 8 try Noozxoide i found to get the benefit i had to disable sound alive using BK disabler and it actually sounds almost as good as Viper4Android, all done without root and it gives volume a real boost too, its the best ive seen so far second only to viper

Dolby Atmos mod

In my opinion, the audio via the 3.5mm jack in this device is terrible.
I've seen Dolby working in a lot of other devices without root/flashing. Is the same possible for this device?
Thanks in advance
P.S I've already tried all modded Dolby apks, be it for Razr phone/moto g8. None of them have worked so far (the app keeps crashing when launched). I've tried it with the native "Audio Effects" app enabled and disabled. No luck. Any idea why? ?
Flash a dolby for pure Android and the same version of Android that you have, there it will work for you, greetings
