Viper4Android "install drivers" loop after update - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

While I know there are other threads regarding similar programs with this rather temperamental app, I didn't find any thread that fit my case exactly, nor one that really fixed my problem, so.. sorry if this is a duplicate.
Anyway, situation is this:
Viper4Android 2.5.0.5 (installed through magisk 20.0, MM 7.3.5) was working perfectly (or atleast somewhat) before recent update. Now that my phone is on Oxygen OS 10.0.1.GM21BA, the driver for Viper fails to install (it says "driver installed, please reboot etc.", but upon reboot it says "please reinstall driver, etc.", and the loop continues).
What I've tried so far:
>Reinstalling Viper - no difference
>Disabling SELinux (both through the Viper itself and through some outside app that might or might not work) - no difference
>Read that deleting audio.fx in vendor/etc/ could fix this problem - couldn't find the file
>Yelling at the phone - no difference
>Also read somewhere that an issue might be that Viper might be denied storage access permission, but the app don't seem to be requesting any permissions at all.
Anyone have any tips or pointers at what else I could check or try? Music just sounds kinda bleh without Viper.

You need to install drivers twice.

Mhm, sure.
Though, to be honest, this was among the things I tried before. No difference.

Uninstall your current Viper and reboot. Sideload Viper 2.7.1.0 apk or use the Magisk module. Install the driver and reboot. Once back in Android, install the driver again. Should work. If not, go into V4A settings and put in compatibility mode.

Hmm, installing drivers multiple times made no difference in 2.5.0.5, and yet in 2.7.1.0 that fixes everything. I actually thought Tropical Cactus was just taking the piss. Uehh, this Viper and its esoteric rituals.
Anyway, it works now. Thank you for your help.

To repeat my question from another thread, i have the same issue and 2.7 only works for me when the "attach audio effects" option is checked and that introduces quite significant audio lag when skipping tracks.
I also can't seem to get rid of the permanent notification without breaking vipers functionality.
Is there any fix for this? Or a way to properly install 2.5.0.5?

Lol. Forgot to suggest 2.7.1 and then install drivers twice.

Still an issue in 10.3.4

I got it working after finding a guide that had to do with audio modification library too. Followed it perfectly and all works. I'll try to find it.

Tried to find that one again, too.
I ended up installing the Audio modification library magisk module, rebooting, deactivating (not uninstalling) that module and then installing the current Viper 2.7.1.6 module.
May have rebooted after that before installing drivers and therefore rebooting again, can't remember though.
But it does work perfectly and the guide did go something like this.
Also possible that a Viper update fixed the issue.

If you haven't seen this thread already, check it out. I successfully installed V4A on my 935F with it.

And FYI... it sounds fantastic!
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.

[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
!!!!DISCLAIMER!!!!!

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

Cant get Viper to work properly

Hey guys,
since i got my Oneplus 6, i couldnt get viper to work quite right. Most of the time its just shows "Processing: No" till i restart it and after like a hour or device switch it turns off.
I tried:
Copying the Audioeffects.conf from system/etc to vendor/etc
Using Magisk Audio Compability Module
Using Alternate Magisk V4A Module
Using a Magisk Rom with Build-In V4a (currently xXx 2.8)
Disabling Dirac and Services
but nothing worked
thanks for your help
i had the same but then i tried to use the other viper release from magisk and it worked. there is this one called hifi and fx

Sounds to me like you need to disable the battery optimizations for Viper. It's almost as if your phone is detecting High battery drain and shuts down the app

I'm using the Android p beta and i don't have the problems with viper as i did with oxygen os 5. it's always processing for my headphones, either plugged in or Bluetooth. the only exception is sometimes after receiving a call while listening to music, after the call is over and my music resumes, viper is no longer processing. not every time though. i used the latest magisk and the viper module in the screenshot.
i also didn't make any changes to conf files, just installed through magisk download. rebooted, opened viper fx, gave it storage permissions and turned it on.
Had the same problem, but was able to resolve it by choosing the legacy (non-material) interface when installing the Magisk module. I still flashed the full module and selected the latest version, just not the material interface. It may have been something else, but I've updated my ROM (HavocOS) several times and even done a couple full fastboot stock resets and the issue is yet to resurface.

I've had this problem on an Samsung S7 Edge, S8 Plus, and now, a Oneplus 6.
Everything appears to look good on Driver Status, except "Processing:No" and it's audibly not on.
What's worked for me in this specific situation is replacing the configuration file "audio_effects.conf" in /system/vendor/etc with another configuration file that I found in another XDA thread. So here's the concrete steps:
1. Install the viper4android FX module from Magisk manager that has four devs (v1.7 as i write this) and reboot. I don't know if this method will work with other v4a modules. Note that Processing will work temporarily, but likely won't survive a reboot.
2. Download this file (files_for_v4a.zip) from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...laxy-s8-s8-t3596933/post72049061#post72049061
3. Unzip files_for_v4a.zip and make note where it extracted. (You'll need one of its contents, audio_effects.conf, later)
4. Using a file explorer with root capability, go to the following directory:
/system/vendor/etc
5. Copy the existing "audio_effects.conf" to another directory, for example /download, to use as a backup in case this goes badly
6. Copy the file "audio_effects.conf" that you unzipped earlier to /system/vendor/etc, overwriting the existing file.
7. Reboot and test v4a.
Good luck!
Note: The Pulse feature of a custom NavBar in custom ROMS based on LOS 15.1 will not work if you do the above.
Although I'm just a hack, I modded an "audio_effects.conf" file using commits from the above to work with Pulse. I've tested it on my device (despite my lack of know-how, it seems to work for me and others!), so be aware of this if you download the following file and use it (by renaming it audio_effects.conf and placing it in /system/vendor/etc):

I haven't messed with dirac at all, and v4a still works for me.
Some clarification, please:
Did you uninstall the v4a magisk module that came with xXx and reboot?
Then go to magisk manager and install v4a fx materialized1.7 and follow the rest of the steps outlined in my post?

yeah, its 1.7 from magisk repo, disabling dirac seems to help a bit but not everytime

And you replaced the audio_effects.conf file in /system/vendor/etc with the one from the downloaded zip?
(Sorry to belabor the point, but it's not clear to me you tried all that)

Android 10: Viper4Android not working

Hi guys, I recently updated to "10", stock rooted with Magisk 19.4 and TWRP.70
Whatever I try, no matter which version, as system app or not... Viper DOES install... WILL download the necessary drivers, and after every reboot... They're gone. I just have no clue anymore how to fix it.
Anyone to help?

2.7 works fine for me...just install drivers twice (reboot 2x too)
Where did you find 2.7? Latest I can find in Magisk is 2.5.0.5. Anyway. Second time driver install gave me a bootloop... not what I needed... Managed to boot TWRP via Tool All-in-one. Deleted Dalvik/Cache. After that reboot worked. Viper still asks for driver, for some reason. It does not need permissions, so that can not be the reason. And now I've lost networkconnection on both cards. This is causing really weird things. REALLY WEIRD.
I double checked Busy Box: present. I deleted Viper and both SIMcards are back online. Scary!
You might need to clear repo cache and look again
VIPER4Android FX v2.7.1.0(2710).zip
After flashing, open app and will be greeted will drivers need to be installed. It will reboot. open app again and toggle "master limiter" then click gear top right and toggle "Attach audio effects" and try it now.

@schmeggy929: thanks mate, this version works. And drivers indeed needed to be installed twice. Made my day!

Is Viper 2.7 working fine for you on 10.0.2?
Yes

Question Anyone get ViperFX functional on their OP9?

received Buds Z for my OP9 purchase and have very slowly converting to the new phone (rooting, stability and assure privacy issues were addressed) and was very happy with their performance with my rooted OP6 on A11-Pixen OS with ViperFX. Without VIper, the sound is lackluster. even a downloadable EQ makes minimal difference.
Attempting to convert fully to OP9 today and installed viperFX mod form magisk but when I attempt to perform the initial launch to download and install the driver, the phone just reboots without actually getting the driver installed. Im not sure if its a hardware compatibility issue or the fact the OP9 root isnt as full and fleshed out like the one on my OP6. (something about DM verify and/or selinux enforcement? idk, I am pretty lame at the deep understanding of android 11s workings)
I know there are a few other magisk mod for audio listed and more that i could possibly find that arent and add myself via zip installation but even if one ends up working, I will still be aiming for VIperFX as my preferred solution.
If anyone has a solution, plz reply (or whatever possible replacement you've chosen)
PS. I swore the buds z touch controls were suppose to be customizable. anyone else unable to set custom controls for them?
In magisk, install "audio modification library". That should fix the driver issue.
To customize the touch controls, go in Settings, bluetooth and device connections, bluetooth, settings cog next to the buds, headphones. Now you can customize them. Not a lot of options though.
You might need to install the oneplus buds app first.

Same issue. Tried ACP as well, just gave up on it and using the inferior built-in Atmos
No, but I did install James DSP and it's working just fine.
@applyscience
After alot of trail and error I finally got ViperFX working on my OP9 !
You must install magisk-permissive-script_v1.2 and audio modification library modules in Magisk and of course the ViperFX
Glad you got it working! I wonder why I didn't need to do that
Hopefully it works for everyone else.
Just use JamesDSP. Same functionality as Viper, and works 100% of the time.

Can you tell me how you got it working in more detail? Because this isn't working for me
Okay it randomly worked for me after installing the BusyBox magisk module, then the Audio compatibility module, then the Audio modification module and then viper. After that the driver installed but did not work. After setting the selinux mode to permissive and switching to legacy mode in viper it worked flawlessly.
Im trying for several hours now, i have tried everthing i found including this Thread
(https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-fix-100-working-viper4android-for-android-11-devices.4213647/)
Nothing worked for me anyone any idea, i have allready updatet to the latest OxygenOs (11.2.4.4.LE25BA) Maybe thats why it doesnt work?

Did you reboot between the steps? have you installed any audio changing application before?
I'm using james dsp. It does the same and works without problems

Can you link to said James dsp? Now I'm curious as to what this is. And if it works as well
Just search inside of magisk it's a standard module and works flawlessly for op9

Does it not need root rights.?But I'm using through by streaming now on way home from work. Very nice
Of course it needs root, magisk without root is kind of pointless.

But mine isn't asking for root rights is what I'm saying.
It is a module. Module always have root when it's functional then everything is alright

Do you use any presets? If not, are you able to use those?
