Viper4Android how to questions - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
I just got a 1+6 after my 1+5 got stolen as well as my 1+3 few weeks later (bad luck ikr), and I want to install Viper4Android for the first time, never got it on any device.
I saw a post saying that version 1.7.4 is working on latest OOS but can't seem to find it in magisk, only shows up 2 versions which do not match
Anyone can direct me to a place I can find info on how to install it and possibly use it ?
Also, is it just a simple app that you can remove and be back to stock or does it affect drivers of some kind ?
Cheers

The only Viper4Android that I found to work consistently with minimal effort is the one included in the xXx NoLimits Magisk ROM. With that ROM as soon as you remove it as a Magisk module, you're back to stock and it doesn't affect the drivers at all. Another nice thing is that he includes a couple of Viper profiles to get you started.

I'm with the same problem, i've tried the ones in magisk but they always crop my WhatsApp audios and a lot of others things, If anyone can direct me tio with the module, i'd like a lot

Root OpenKirin Resurrection Remix 6.2.0

So I am running beta 3 of Ressurection Remix from OpenKirin website. Everything is smooth even after heavy tweaks. But I want to root this ROM. Reason is I want to uninstall built-in apps and some of my apps require root access. I already tried rooting the ramdisk.img. it failed. Even though it was rooted root access wasn't available. So can I directly flash latest magisk via elemental ROM TWRP? Or is there any other method?
Like you, I'm on the same build from yesterday, and obviously the minimum that I'd like to do is to root the ROM, since that we already miss a fully working TWRP and a compatible Xposed framework.
I discovered just yesterday topjohnwu's thread about patching the stock boot.img with the custom Magisk Manager apk for Huawei devices, but before doing everything I've decided to make a search on XDA, and I've stumbled upon this. So neither patching the stock ramdisk.img works?? Dammit. Becsuse standing by what i know, flashing latest Magisk on an A only GSI works, but i haven't read successful cases rooting an OpenKirin ROM yet.
I'd like to test this method, but i still have to setup some stuff on this ROM, and so i don't want to try something that could mess up system, trashing all the time that I've spent on configuring the device.
I'll update ya as soon as i can, if something useful should come out. I hope to update you soon!
Dude. I have done it and would like to tell you that it can be flashed normally. Currently enjoying root with all modules working. If you have an honor 6x just flash TWRP from elemental room thread and then latest magisk. So far no issues, no bootloop. However after first installation I recommend you to install via direct patch once again to ensure everything works. i.eif you still wanna know. This is way simpler
Thanks for letting me know mate, yeah i have a 6X. Actually I've installed TWRP and flashed latest stable Magisk, V17.1. Magisk is correctly detected by Magisk Manager.
Now, the file that i should provide to patch on Magisk Manager is stock EMUI 8.0 boot.img, correct?
Nope. If you have magisk installed just direct install once again via magisk manager and you're good to go
Thanks Mannan, I'm enjoying root goodies too now.
I take the chance to ask ya if sound mods like Viper/Dolby Atmos will also work or not as a Magisk module, since that time ago (but even recently) i saw some users that was saying in a couple of threads that flashing one of these would corrupt system files, and so EMUI 8 had to be flashed again.
First of all we aren't on EMUI 8bso no corruption. We are on Android 8.1 so any Sound Mod for this Firmware should work. Now I haven't flashed it yet cause mainly I have to find a working one and of the risk of soft brick. But I will try and let you know if I find a working one. Same goes for exposed framework
Got it. Well it would be great, especially Xposed in systemless version.
EDIT - going off topic a while, even you notice a charging time much slower than on stock? Before, i usually charged something like 60-65% in one hour, now it tooks at least 1 hour and an half to achieve the same percentage of battery. Gotta tweak this someway.
Tried installing Viper4android. Gives IO error while mounting driver. Xposed I havent tried

Thanks for the feedback. Sadly i think that Xposed won't work too.

working Dolby Atmos oos 10 with gcam

I've been experimenting with different magisk mods on oxygen os 10 beta and found a complete working Dolby Atmos port that also doesn't crash gcam with dotfix like it used too on pie.
Here's the link for the Dolby Atmos magisk module
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81683221&postcount=4342
All I had to do to make it work was install a custom kernel and everything worked with no faults or crashes.
My choice of kernal was the latest blusparks kernel but should work with all the popular ones
Update:
I did some testing and can confirm the latest module through the thread posted works...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/app-dolby-atmos-axon-7-oreo-port-t3740508/page473
Use the Google drive link provided in comments on that page and download Dolby rc4 because rc5 is faulty and will be taken down.
Also download the acdb module in that Google drive link and install that too.
This now makes it work without clashing with OnePlus audio FX aswell as keeping the device certificate as OnePlus instead of Sony like it was with the last module posted. All still works with gcam and dotfix.
For reference my device is on oos10 stable and has blusparks custom kernel and selinux is set to permissive as some people mention it makes Dolby crash with enforcing.
I flashed this "blu_spark_r198-oos_op5-op5t_8ba46c0b8.zip" Kernel on OOS10 Beta 2 but not boot the device
You will have to flash stock kernel to recover from that if not reflash the ROM over your existing install should be fine... That isn't a problem with the Dolby module and to be fair doesn't happen to anyone on the blusparks forum page so something with that install definitely went wrong I would post a logcat of sorts on their page and see if the answer can be found there. Like mentioned you can use any supported custom kernel for your ROM if you can't get blusparks working which I am very sure is some error in the install process as that's not normal than you could use new kernel or lazy kernel to name a few.
I can't explain better without knowing your exact process you took but can guarantee that is not the normal outcome for installing this or any kernel for boot loop something you have done or the zips install process has made an error sorry
Like I said for support on the kernel check with the developer on his page sorry you had this problem
Are you flashing Magisk Canary or Magisk Stable? Magisk Canary builds after Magisk Stable 20.4 currently cause bootloop but will likely be fixed in a later Magisk release (no ETA).
That was on the first and last page of the blusparks kernel thread which I would recommend quickly reading through any mods thread before installing it to know if you can use it or if you will gain problems.
Not sure if this applies to you but that's the only mention of bootloops in the last year or so on that thread. Hopefully this might help you
You just have to set selinux to permissive.
The app is not turning on

it's the same with me
Other than making sure ityou are using selinux set as permissive and having a custom kernel there isn't anything that can go wrong but I ain't doubting it ain't working for you.
Try my setup which is using blusparks kernal other than installing that I have done nothing else so if not working there must be another module or something that's stopping this from happening. Even though what your explaining usually points to your selinux being enforcing as that's what every Dolby has done for years it either opens but won't power on or it crashes and closes as opening.
I can confirm I personally have 3 OnePlus 5t devices in my house that all have this working under the latest stable oxygen os 10 with the latest gcam and dotfix installed and only had to install bluspark to make dolby open up.
By the way for anyone using this module the only one I know supported is the zip in the link posted. Not the rest of the modules from that thread, atleast none I've tried so if you want it to work don't try searching for newer versions through that thread.
If you do find a more updated version or a fix for the ones posted newer than this module please inform us all through this thread.
Thank you so much ahh! I love this compare to a viper in my opinion.

Wow. Thank you so much. Easiest thing I've ever had to do. Just flash the viper mod on that YT page. Really makes my AirPods Max come to life.

I was surprised how easy it was as well. It is certainly one of the best reasons to root.
Can someone share the file with me? The Youtube link with viper is not working anymore so I was unable to get the zip. I need viper in my life. Please .
@kirschdog1 I was able to make Viper work with the following steps.
Install Viper from Magisk Repo.Reboot and open app to install drivers.
Install busybox Magisk module and reboot.
Install Audio Modification Library module and reboot.
I don't know why but installing all three at the same time didn't seem to work for me.
I am running a Pixel 4a with dec security patch, rooted with magisk beta. I used the zip linked in the following post.
I also set it from SELinux permissive to enforcing, by disabling a boot script in the magisk module.

Viper seems so, now I still need to know about connection recording ... Then I use this ROM
I am on latest Magisk Canary and Viper works fine for me by following this guide.
I tried everything with magisk version and the other puhlic versions around with about every thread I found. The mentioned above I also tried. But it only worked when I switch selinux to permissive. With magisk canary 22 104
Im on most actual mai update

Hey Whats up with Magisk?

Has anyone else noticed that magisk has stopped working? The latest addition? There is no longer any access to hide magisk features with the latest features?
For instance for Pokemon Go to work on a custom rom you need magisk hide to hide magisk an hide from app.
I cannot even get it to open after it forces update?

Happy new year. Maybe reinstall Magisk manager? For me it works perfectly, just be sure to install 21.2 magisk and you should be good to go.

I actually listened to another members post an have had success flashing an rooting 3 roms that I could not do either of those with. Apparently there is some kind of conflict bwteeen something in android 10 an android 11. So Ofox 12.0.6 an global firmware for surya 12.0.3.0 are the solutions.
Magish 21.0 worked every time with an android 11. Neither 21.1 or 21.2 worked for me with A11 roms. Only magisk 21 had full functionality

Weird . For me it was the opposite. I had to flash global MIUI 12.0.4.0 to make anything custom work. Until I upgraded to 12.0.7.0, ever since everything works perfectly. Magisk below 21.0 never worked for me on this device.
I have a hypothesis, that all device variants (Indonesian, European, global, Russian) have different vendors and not 100% compatible, Maybe different modem configuration as well. I noticed in mine (European version) that LTE battery consumption is a lot better (by 2hrs SOT!!!) so i'm confused on what to do. Should I stay on MIUI with all it's issues or switch to a custom ROM and lose 1-2 hours of screen on time.

I've sorted everything out. I recommend the firmware you already use for android 11 custom roms. One rom I read other guides for an watched YouTube guides. It's EvolutionX 5.2. It has basically converted my Poco X3 NFC global into a Google pixel 5.
This rom is head an shoulders the best rom for our device. It only needs firmware 12.0.7.0. Which I also found solved all issues an to be flashed from the phones internal memory.
It's beautiful. No bugs. I only use that new twrp ending in 15 an magisk 21. Newer magisks fail to root.
But yes could be to do with different countries.
Edit: Evolution is not the highest benchmarking. An is not the fastest. Its an all round rom for daily driver use. Antutu bench's in the mid 270-280k area.

[S10e, Lineage 20.0] Bootlooping after a few hours of usage

Hi,
kinda new to custom ROMs and running into my first real problems.
I installed TWRP, LineageOS 20.0, BitGApps Basic and Magisk 26.1 on my Samsung Galaxy S10e Exynos.
After setup everything works extremely well and fast. I installed Universal SafetyNet Fix, Viper4Android (programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged: A refined ViPER4Android installer. (github.com)) and Universal GMS Doze (gloeyisk/universal-gms-doze: Patches Google Play services app and its background processes to be able using battery optimization (github.com)). The phone still works fine and Viper4Android works too. SafetyNet also passes.
Now the problems arise. A few hours later and some reboots later, the phone won't boot anymore (maybe 20 reboots). I didn't even change any settings before the reboots. The boot animation plays and the phone is getting reset by a watchdog maybe. Also cannot use ADB during boot and the safe mode button combination doesn't work. I'm not experienced enough to understand the log files correctly. I already flashed the phone twice and the same problem occurred.
I attached some logs I could get from TWRP, but the main data partition is encrypted.
Full log files are here: logs.zip
Otherwise I'm extremely impressed with Lineage and would love to use it as my daily.
Thanks a lot for helping.

If it is an issue with the ROM itself, you will need to post your issue in the ROM thread where you got your ROM and see if there is something in the ROM that the developer of the ROM needs to fix in the ROM itself.
Hi, kinda new to custom ROMs and tried out Lineage and later Crdroid on my Galaxy S10e Exynos.
The OS works fine but after a few restarts the phone randomly bootloops and I can't find any way to fix it.
Currently installed is Crdroid recovery, Crdroid latest (the same problem happens with Lineage) with Android 13, MindTheGapps, Magisk 25.2
Magisk modules are Zygisk, Viper4Android and Universal SafetyNet Fix.
I attached some logs but I'm too inexperienced too read them correctly. It looks like the file
Code:
/data/misc_de/0/apexdata/com.android.permission/runtime-permissions.xml
is corrupted after a few restarts?? The bootlogo just repeats and nothing is happening. The logs say that the zygote process has crashed.
Does anyone know what to do? Thanks a lot!
Logs: log.txt
This used to happen on my Galaxy A50 on another ROM too, and since it's not an S10e problem it's probably a Magisk module
