VIPER4Android + DolbyAtmos For Any Android

Hello friends, i have seen many people struggling with viper4android and dolby and they dont work, so i made a 100% working tutorial for it.
This method works on Lollipop, Marshmallow, Nougat and Oreo.
WARNING I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BOOTLOOP OR BRICK SO KINDLY PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK BECAUSE I AM NOT A DEVELOPER
Here is the youtube video tutorial : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpFNMSCEBK8&t=28s
and below is the written guide.
Download the required files here http://www.mediafire.com/file/cltv25q40t2spkx/viperdolby%20with%20magisk%20fix.zip
1-Extract and copy viper4android folder and ViPERAtmos_5.2_Sony_Beats_Edition.zip both to your internal storage!
2-Go to TWRP recovery and flash viperatmos zip file
3- Reboot to system and go to viper4android app, tap on top right corner for options and tap on uninstall drivers, it will ask super user rights so grant them and wait until OK message appears.
4- Go to TWRP recovery again and flash viperatmos zip again!!!
5- Reboot to system and play some music, check Dolby Atmos! if its working and you see moving visualizer then its fine.
6- Now go to viper4android and from top right corner tap on 3 dots and check driver status ! if it says processing that you have fully working dolby and viper
BUT IF DRIVER STATUS SHOWS ABNORMAL NOT PROCESSING THEN DO THIS!
FIX
There is a file vipersupportfix.sh in that rar your extracted before, copy this file to your internal storage and open root explorer in your phone, copy this file and go to the root of your phone
and paste this file in this path /magisk/.core/post-fs-data
After pasting vipersupportfix.sh in post-fs-data folder change its permissions to 0755 and reboot your phone.
NOW Play some music and check driver status in viper4android, it should say Processing! and Status Normal
if the status is normal but says not processing then use Lark Player for your music.
TIP
I suppose viper4android is working now, tap on the dots and select Expert from ui!
then scroll down until you see convolver and enable it, and below there is a button to select the convolver, find Hip Hop DFX and select it and enjoy killer sound!
You can change and fine tune the treble and bass as to your needs!

Will this work on my mate 10 Pro (emui 8)?

[ROOT GUIDE] Alps S93 and Alps R10/R11

So recently I was browsing Wish and discovered phone's could be bought and ordered two devices out of pure curiosity.
This guide probably will apply to a LOT of devices out there, if it works for you and you aren't on one of these devices, let me know! More than interested to see how many
devices this will work on apart from these 2 Wish specials I do plan on buying a few more Wish devices in future to see which one's are the best to go for in terms of price/performance.
This guide will go through rooting them and restoring a few parts of Android.
This applies to the following devices:
-Alps R10
-Alps S93
I'm not responsible for any damage done by following this guide, please do so at your own risk.
I don't like using Kingoroot and don't suggest it at all, but for this guide we will use it, following by replacing it entirely with SuperSU.
Things you'll need:
-Kingoroot APK (Not to mix up with Kingroot)
-SuperSU 2.79 APK (2.79 is required for rooting after Kingoroot, any newer versions will give you the error 'Binaries occupied')
-Root Browser
-Root Uninstaller Pro (or a similar app)
Let's begin!
1. Start off by installing the following Apps: Kingoroot, Root Browser Classic (optional, not needed for root), Root Uninstaller Pro
2. Launch KingoRoot and allow it to root the device, you might need to restart it once complete.
3. Once rooted, open up Root Uninstaller Pro and confirm that you have root access. (OPTIONAL: Remove the preinstalled Facebook and WhatsApp apps. I can't confirm if these apps are legit so it's best they go)
4. Install SuperSU 2.79 from the downloaded APK file.
5. Open Root Uninstaller Pro, switch to 3rd party apps, select SuperSU, and push "To system app", reboot the device and allow android to start back up. You'll get a message saying "Android is upgrading" Sit tight as this can take a few minutes.
6. Open up Root Uninstaller Pro, switch to System Apps and locate SuperUser (Ensure you get the KingoUser one and not SuperSU which we just installed) and remove Kingouser. DON'T REBOOT THE DEVICE.
7. Close Root Uninstaller Pro and open up SuperSU. You'll get a message that binaries need to be updated, push YES for this and select NORMAL installation. Wait up to 10 minutes for this to install. It'll take a while on these devices. Restart the device once complete.
8. Open up SuperSU and confirm everything it no longer asks for binaries to be updated.
9. Open up Root Uninstaller Pro, head to System Apps, and remove Kingoroot.
10. Reboot device.
11. Go to the Google Play Store and install the latest version of SuperSU. Launch it and update the binaries again once prompted. Reboot the device once this is complete.
The device should now be rooted and Kingoroot/Kingouser free. You can remove Root Uninstaller Pro here if you wish!
Enjoy your rooted device! Everything after this is optional, but just helps restore a bit of Android.
Optional steps:
-Increase screen resolution
For this you'll need ADB.
1. Head to settings, unlock developer mode by going to About Phone and spam click Build number until it says "You are now a developer"
2. Go back to settings, into Developer Settings and Enable USB Debugging.
3. Download the Android platform tools.
4. Load up a command prompt in the directory of your Android Platform tools.
5. Set the new resolution:
-For Alps S93, enter: 'adb shell wm size 960x1920'
-For Alps R10/R11, enter 'adb shell wm size 1080x1920'
6. Update the density. Your taps might be a little off, and some things might not look right without this. These are the best I've found so far for these two devices:
-For Alps S93, enter: 'adb shell density 280'
-For Alps R10/R11, enter 'adb shell density 320'
7. Reboot and confirm with an app like ResInfo.
-Replace boot animation and shutdown animation with stock Android or a custom one
1. Head into SuperSU, Go into the Settings tab and un-check "Mount namespace separation" (This is required, otherwise you'll get issues writing to root. You can turn this off later.)
2.Launch Root Browser/Root Browser Classic
3. Swipe left to reach the root directory, navigate to the following path: System > Media
4. Delete/Rename/Replace bootanimation.zip. If you remove or rename it you'll get the original Android boot animation.
5. Delete/Rename/Replace bootaudio.mp3. If you remove this, you'll have no boot-up sound.
6. Delete/Rename/Replace shutanimation.zip. If you remove this we'll get the stock Android shutdown animation, which happens to be the same as the boot animation.
7. Delete/Rename/Replace shutaudio.mp3. This will make the shutdown silent.
8. Reboot the device and confirm you have the stock Android boot animation!
-Speeding up the devices a little.
For this one you'll need to install No-Frills CPU Control. It's a great little app and will help us out here especially with the R10/R11.
1. Go to the Google Play Store and install No-Frills CPU Control.
2. Launch No-Frills CPU Control and grant SuperSU permission if prompted.
3. Apply the following Settings:
Max Clock Frequency: (Alps-S93) 1.3GHZ and for the R10/R11 set it to 1.001GHz
Min Clock Frequency: (Alps-S93) 1.001GHz and for the R10/R11, 1.001GHz
Governor: Performance
I/O Scheduler: noop
Apply on boot: This one is completely up to you, however I've turned it on and not experienced any issues.
4. Push Apply and grant root access if prompted.
Other modifications I've made that aren't covered in this post:
-Removed the clone Samsung theme from the R10/R11. This can be done using Root Uninstaller Pro and locate the theme app and just remove it. Reboot and it should be gone.
-Replace Launcher3 with stock CyanogenMod. To do this you'll need to install Nova Launcher, Load up Root Uninstaller Pro and Remove Launcher3 under System Apps. Install CyanogenMod's Trebuchet Launcher and set it as a system app. Reboot and choose default launcher as Trebuchet. You can pull Trebuchet's APK from any Android 4.4 ROM on the internet. I used one from a Galaxy Young.
-Enabled the Navbar at the bottom. This can be done with Root browser, head to System, Build.prop and add the line 'qemu.hw.mainkeys=0' Save and reboot.
Hopefully this can help some of you out there who buy one of these devices, whether it was for fun, by accident or on purpose.
Let me know if this worked for you or not!

Hi, Any way to upgrade the version of android with a custom rom and any suggestions?

Without unlocking the bootloader or flashing a custom recovery, I don't think it's possible to upgrade the version of Android. This guide is just for gaining root access.

Thanks for the quick response. I already unlocked the bootloader but can't find any custom recovery for that particular phone (R10). I bought it just as a spare in case one of my four daughters breaks or has her phone stolen, but it seems to have ingrained malwares (the browser for one) and I don't trust it as it is. If I find a solution I will let you know.

TWRP - ROOT - XPOSED Tutorial [Xiaomi Mi 10]

Android 10/11 (tested on latest weekly rom MIUI 12.2 (20.10.16)
Hello, i want to share with u a simplefied tutorial how to:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK !!!
TWRP
Before installing custom recovery called TWRP u need to unlock bootloader. Be sure that u enable developer options and inside enable USB debugging.
1. Turn OFF your phone (wait few seconds) and then press VOLUME DOWN + POWER till u see fastboot on the screen.
2. Connect phone with PC.
3. Download TWRP image and adb. DOWNLOAD
4. Extract ZIP anywhere.
5. Open cmd window in the same folder where are extracted files.
6.Type fastboot flash recovery TWRP_umi.img.
Done
MAGISK / ROOT
After u install TWRP u now have custom recovery so u can do whatever u want.
1. Download magisk.
20.4 version (Android 10) DOWNLOAD
21.0 version (Android 11) DOWNLOAD
21005 version (Android 11) DOWNLOAD
2. Copy that zip to your phone/sd card/usb.
3. Run TWRP recovery (turn OFF phone, wait few seconds, press VOLUME UP + POWER, wait 2 vibrations than release).
4. Click INSTALL button, locate your zip file called magisk_20.4.zip or Magisk-v21.0.zip, select that zip and flash.
5. Reboot System.
6. Download Magisk Manager. DOWNLOAD
7. Install it.
8. Run installed magisk.
9. Update magisk or magisk manager (if update is avaliable).
10. Press "Check SafetyNet" button. If is failed go to settings (home screen of magisk manager, press upper right button, scroll down and find MagiskHide and enable it).
11. Press again "Check SafetyNet" and it shoud be success.
U are done, u have root over magisk.
TIP: If u get any problems (bootloop) or u want totaly to remove magisk u can use uninstaller and flash it over TWRP just like u did for installation
Uninstaller 20.4 version DOWNLOAD
Uninstaller 21.0 version DOWNLOAD
Uninstaller 21005 version DOWNLOAD
XPOSED / EDXPOSED
EdXposed is a Magisk & Riru module that provides original Xposed frameworks on latest Android ART devices. With this module u can load bunch cool modules including
CustoMIUIzer.
1. Go to your magisk manager, u will find 4 buttons at bottom middle screen (home, superuser, logs, modules). Press modules.
2. search for riru. Install Riru (Riru - Core) v21.3 by Rikka.
3. After flashing riru press reboot button.
4. After reboot check modules tab in magisk and check did riru core is successfully installed. If yes everything is ok.
5. Download EdXposed Manager. DOWNLOAD
6. Install EdXposed Manager.
7. Run it.
8. U will get red warning that says "EdXposed Framework is not installed". Dont worry.
9. Go to CANARY tab and choose in framework EdXposed-YAHFA-V0.5.0.6 (IMPORTANT IS TO CHOOSE YAHFA not SANDHOOK) if u choose sandhook by mistake u will lose SafetyNet then scroll down to SafetyNet part.
10. So u choose YAHFA, Press INSTALL/UPDATE (zip will be downloaded to your download folder on your phone).
11.Open Magisk Manager go to modules tab and press install from storage button.
12. Find YAHFA zip and flash it. After installation press reboot button and wait a phone to get rebooted.
13. When your phone boot go to EdXposed Manager and check did framework says that its installed.
14. If u get warning "EdXposed Framework is installed, but not active". please reinstall EdXposed Manager. It shoud says "EdXposed Framework is active".
Done !
SAFETYNET
If u by accident or any other reason install sandhook framework, u will get safetynet problem. And even if u uninstall it u will still get warning. To solve that u need to remove sandhook traces over (root explorer, or explorer in TWRP). I personaly use Root Browser from play store.
Open root explorer, and go to /data/user_de/0/ search sandhook ( u shoud get 111 folders and im think about 50kb size for delete). remove all and reboot a device. Be aware that some modules can make safetynet problem too.
BOOTLOOP
If u get a bootloop in any part of this tutorial (except TWRP) u can manualy over TWRP recovery mode (VOLUME UP + POWER) manualy delete xposed or magisk modules.
Run TWRP, go to advanced go to file manager, go to /data/adb/modules and remove modules. Then go to data/misc/riru and delete that folder. Reboot and u are ok to try again.
TIP: Every time when u install/upgrade firmware u have a possibility to keep old battery information. So its good to go to TWRP then go to Advance then find RM battery-info and remove it and reboot a device. Personaly i repair battery drain on my mi 10 with this.
I hope this tutorial will help someone. I tried to make it as simple as possible.
Special thanks to meowcat
