I've got busybox installed properly, it's Stericson's, I've checked if it's working and it is, I have given root permission to V4A and I have plenty of space for the drivers to be installed. I'm on a rooted h959 15e image, I'm not really willing to revert back to previous software versions, and I'm stuck with this problem. The exact message I get is "Driver install failed: The busybox installation found on your device does not work. This usually means you installed a wrong or broken busybox. V4A needs Stericson's busybox to work. If you are sure you installed busybox properly, then please confirm your device has been completely rooted". But it is rooted, I can access all types of root-only things like xposed and root booster. SELinuxModeChanger is set to permissive, I have tried with both V4A apps from the DXA thread and from the (not the FX one) one in Google Play, and I have already tried uninstalling and installing everything, and I have also tried reflashing my rooted_system.img countless times. So root is working, busybox is working, SELinuxModeChanger is properly set up, why isn't it working? Also I noticed something, when I reboot my phone, SELinuxModeChanger changes the SELinux mode back to enforcing, but if I turn on the option to show a notification after the mode changes, the notification IS showed, so it must mean it's working, right? I have tried before without poweramp and dolby atmos, but as of now I'm using both. I don't even know if V4A will work with Atmos and Poweramp (Atmos and Poweramp do work together, though), but I just need to try it, even if it means uninstalling atmos. So I'm completely out of options. The only thing that I can think of is if there's a way to manually install the drivers (latest updated/updatable super audio quality ones), but I don't know if that's possible. So anyway, can anyone help me with this?
You should flash a zip from this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/themes-apps/viper4android-t2952137. I used this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3667403&d=1456929089, and it works. Of course, flashfire v0.24 is required.

I'm flashing the zip file viper|atmos 5.5 sony beats edition with flashfire 0.50, and nothing's happening. Again, SELinux mode is permissive and busybox is installed, but atmos app and viper app won't show up, and when installing the app from the playstore, it says the driver is not installed. Help, please?

1. First, install ViPER4Android apk from the official site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223. You can choose between the old (v2.3.4.0) and new (v2.4.0.1) version.
2. Then flash a zip from this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/themes-apps/viper4android-t2952137. I used "ViPERAudio 5.4 Stock.zip" (compatible with V4A v2.4.0.1). You can also choose "ViPERAudio 4.7.1 Stock.zip", if you have V4A v2.3.4.0 installed. I didn't try other mods (such as "viper|atmos 5.5 sony beats edition"), so I don't know if they work.
3. For flashing, you have to use FlashFire v0.24, other versions don't work with the device. Link: http://flashfireapk.com/flashfire-0.24.apk.
* Also, you don't have to change SELinux.
Thanks

Thank you very much, friend, I'm gonna try your method right now. Just one question, why doesn't flashfire 0.50 work with the g flex 2? I flashed Xposed with it and it worked. Isn't 0.24 an older version?
How do you test the benefits?

Actually, I don't know. I've read somewhere that v0.24 is the only working version for our flex 2. I didn't want to brick my device, so I used v0.24. I've had no problems with it so far.

I've tried with version 0.24 and it didn't work either. I'm gonna test the g flex 2 flash mod (the one with g4 tweaks and etc) with flashfire 0.24, since it says to use that version and it didn't work flashing it with 0.50, and if it still doesn't work for me, I'll revert back to 0.50, since it worked flashing dolby atmos (seperate from viper4audio, but the viper4audio-only zip file didn't flash). I fixed my problem of drivers not installing, so I'll just install atmos again and install the v4a drivers through the app. But thank you all for your help, really . If I menage to get all the mods I have working, I'll make a thread so that H959 rooted 15e image users can enjoy the best experience in their G flex 2.
maybe you never get viper4 to work in GF2...i did it many times with diferent methods and never never get it to work...even use the flashfire 0.24 (the only working to install zips on GF2) you never get a driver to work!
i recomend to you install Dolby Atmos see Apps section in this forum of GF2...the Dolby Atmos works like a charm and do the good job as Viper4.
(i am not sure but because of architeture of the SD810 Viper4 the latest version never will work on our device!)
That's strange... I'm on H955 v15c, V4A 2.4.0.1 with "ViPERAudio 5.4 Stock.zip" installed using FlashFire v0.24.
Everything works.

Thank you all for your help! If you guys are interested in knowing what mods I managed to make work on the latest software version of the G Flex2 (that is, on the h959 ones), keep an eye on the thread I'm about to make! *celebrates into oblivion* (erm... this is embarassing... I'm a newbie here and... um... how exactly do I "close" or delete this thread? I mean, my problem is solved so... what do I do?
Install busybox from google play, set selinux to permissive and You guys have to uncheck an option on supersu app. Option named "namespace separation". After uncheck that option reboot phone and try to install viper driver again.

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

Are you on Oreo 8.0 running V4A? Thanks!

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
This is a bit of rant/question about the new viper4android, but I am struggling to get it working on my OnePlus 6. I'm running Evolution X custom ROM with default kernel and magisk 20.1
For the life of me I cannot get the new v4a working, I've tried a manner of different suggestions from ACP and AML and different steps to install and when I get a working solution it only processes for Spotify and I get no audio at all through from other apps.
The ACP forum does terribly of explaining what each of the three modules do so I've resorted to just testing different configurations of that module to see if I can get anything to work, rather than actually understanding what each module does and thus what modules I actually need on my device.
This is my plee for help, if anyone has got the new v4a processing for all apps could you please post your steps so I can finally move on from v4a legacy.
Many thanks in advance
Download selinux changer magisk (search for it on Google) flash in magisk and choose 'permisive'.

Do I need ACP or AML at all?
The thread title says it all. Does anyone know why V4A won't install properly on OB 12? If you install the drivers and reboot, it just asks you to do it all over again on reboot.
Install busybox with magisk, try use v4a legacy version. Try different v4a versions

I discovered the culprit for this. It's AML ( audio modification library) it's simply not compatible with v4a on the newest one plus firmware. As soon as I removed a AML, viper installed
On latest Oxygeon OS 10.3.4 having issues installing ViPER4Android legacy from Magisk.
It keeps asking to reinstall the driver....succeed, reboot...and back to the same message to reinstall the driver.
Does anyone have it working? What did you do?
ViPER4Android 2.7.1 install and Tasker automation
Managed to install the latest ViPER4Android 2.7.1 on Oxygen OS 10.3.4.
Installed the APK which creates a Magisk module and you can then update it from there.
You can find the latest version here: https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx
Driver installs with no issues and seems to work fine though all profiles got converted to the new format it uses in 2.7.1
Tasker automation also broke since the app commands changed to kill/reload it. For anyone interested, these are the new shell commands to use in Tasker to automate bluetooth profile switching in Tasker.
Code:
cp /sdcard/Android/data/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx/files/Preset/Headphone1/bt_a2dp.xml /data/data/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx/shared_prefs/bt_a2dp.xml
killall process.ViPER4Android
am start -n com.pittvandewitt.viperfx/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx.MainActivity
Launch app: Spotify
Run each as root. Repeat for each device you want it to switch settings for. These actions are activated when a bluetooth headset connects.
Ive tried downloading several different versions of Viper4android and Dolby Atmos and I can't seem to get it to work. My drivers in Viper4Android say Status:Abnormal.
Am I required to set SELinux to permissive if I'm rooted?
My device is rooted and I prefer not to set SElinux to permissive. Is there any way around it?
Will any Viper4Android version(even the latest version) work with lollipop 5.1.1?
Do I need a specific version of Dolby Atmos to work?
I have Magisk installed and tried installing the Audio Compatibility Patch and Audio Modification Library and installing the drivers, then i uninstalled them and reinstalled the drivers but nothing is working. When I try to open the Dolby Atmos app it force closes. The Viper4Andriod app opens fine but it says drivers are Abmornal. This is for my minix box which has a bluetooth speaker connected to it and I'm trying to get better sound coming out of my Bluetooth speaker for watching movies.
I tried using this method also
but the link in the description is not working https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx so I tried using another version I found online which bundled Viper4android and Dolby Atmos.
