Not working here. always asks to install the driver after reboot.

To get it working all I did was root my phone, installed viper4android.
After opening the app it asked to install the drivers I let it, then rebooted
everything worked just fine.

Viper4Android needs your phone to be on Permissive Kernel.

Working!!! Ty everyone will post a link and how-to install guide in my thread

you probably forgot to set your selinux to permissive. download selinux mode changer here on XDA and the u'll be able to install the driver

Anyone know how to get convolver to work with CM 12.1 nightly on z00A?

Hi, can somebody confirm that Viper4android works without issues on the original rom?, i mean by this that after a reboot the app starts itself, as in my case I have to start the app to get its functionality working on my player
Thanks

is viper4android safe? It asks for a lot of permmisons

yeah viper4android is safe i have been running it since my galaxy s3 and never looked backed best app i have ever come across as far as boosting audio quality.
also guys having problems with not hearing any differance i had the same problem at first then i found a thread in general with a modified audio_policy.config file i had to replace with the original one then v4a worked a charm also kernel has to be permissive too so try it again with the modified audio_policy if you gave up because i nearly did

Not really working for me. I did the se permissive then installed v4a then installed driver and reboot. Now I'm using it mainly for Spotify and it works sometimes but then sometimes it will stop working unless I unplug the headphones and plug back in or sometimes it just stop working at all

Download the viper 4 android guitardedhero bought in my Zenfone max working.

Viper4Android + lollipop?

Haven't been able to get it working since taking the lollipop update. Anyone been successful? If so, can you please list the steps you took in order to get it working? Thanks!
Try the official v4a for lollipop, it'll install all the necessary libraries and build.prop modifications.
Then use SELinuxModeChanger app and change to permissive.
Once done start v4a and install drivers, then reboot. It should work fine.

Thanks for the reply. Still not working for me. Not sure what the problem is. Followed your instructions 100% but when I go to Spotify>Settings>Equalizer it does not bring up v4a
stumped
I give up. I'm just going to buy a portable amp

Sometimes the device doesn't detect v4a as a DSP manager, so you'll need to turn it on and set your settings manually.

(Solved) Viper4Android audio drivers not Installing?

I got the HTC 10 not too long ago and I have been really happy with the phone. My only complaint is there isn't a good equalizer for it to work on Bluetooth audio devices.
I've been using Viper4Android for a few years now and haven't ran into many problems with it. My issue now is when I try to install the audio drivers, it prompts me the drivers installed successfully and reboot, but when I reboot, it prompts me to install the drivers again and the driver status says it isn't installed. My phone's bootloader is unlocked and properly rooted, has busybox installed and has SuperSU granted for Viper so I really don't know what is causing this problem.
Is there any way to get Viper audio drivers installed or is there a decent alternativeto it that works on the 10?
Have not tried yet with the 10 but maybe you need to change to permissive and I think you also need a kernel that allows permissive. Any that's what I'm used to with the Nexus 5.

Flash this. Once flashed,you can replace with current version of Viper located in the priv app folder.

Awesome it works like a charm! It even includes the patch where it allows you to use it even if selinux is set to enforcingso you don't have to get a permissive kernel.
I feel what it boils down to is there is probably some sort writing protection to the system that prevents it from being installed by normal means

How did you end up getting it installed? Selinux set to permissive, still couldn't get it to install so I tried this older version but it hangs and won't load, and I can't find the Priv App folder mentioned.
Sorry if it's not quite related, but, what exactly does the application interface install as "drivers?" I need those files to manually install Viper.

Viper4android On Oneplus

Someone Give me full Guide to use Viper4android On oneplus 3

No
Running Android since 1.5..... Boosted OP3

the problem with Vpier or any othe audio mod is that it breaks your Mic in video calls like skype or Duo. you will have to use headsets everytime.
Search for Arise number 3.5 for oneplus 3 , flash the file and you will have working Viper on your phone. very simple to setup.
Also let me know if your mic works after that

Mine got BT device error after flashed arise.
No sound on BT and op3 confused when connected.
If you guys wanna try then try.
I found this solution in some thread. You need custom recovery and rooted device. I have stock, but this also worked for me when I had Resurrection and Freedom ROMs. This is a systemless install. No problems whatsoever with microphone in any app.
1. Install Busybox. Then install the directories into /bin and /xbin.
2. Open the Viper Fix apk. Click apply fix, it will ask you for root permission. (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588232905720548)
3. Reboot into recovery. Flash the V4A_v2 zip* (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588232905720547)
4. Once rebooted, open the V4A app and install the drivers. Will ask you for root.
5. Reboot and enjoy.
*The zip file removes audio fx and previous versions of v4a if you have any, and is systemless. it will also clear cache and davlink and reboot so its really simple. also, you don't need to change SE permissions, this zip works with both equally the same
Cheers.

I had the same issue, do you by any change install it together with Dolby Atmos? I use ARISE Leviticus and noticed that the version of Dolby Atmos there breaks BT for me, but uninstalling DA via Titanium and then flashing latest DA, version R6.5, solves it for me (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/mod-dolby-atmos-t3109446).
It's a bit cumbersome but I got it to work by:
1. Flash ARISE package through Recovery
2. Boot up and uninstall DA via Titanium
3. Flash DA via recovery

ViPER4ANDROID Working Well?

Has anyone here got ViPER4ANDROID working correctly? For some reason, it's not working so well for me(e.g: sometimes work, sometimes doesn't). I have heard of ViPER4ANDROID MKM, what is it and how is it different from the original V4A?
Thanks for reading this. Would appreciate it if anyone could answer it.
In my n9300 (HK), yes
Hello.
I use the V4A MKM, and it works well.
I think it uses V4A as a base, and somehow changed.
I'm not an expert, so the better is to go to the dev's post and read it.
As I say, it works well for me, but I had to do some creative action.
First I stoped the soundalive and put the folder on my sdcard.
When I flashed the V4A MKM, installed the drivers and reboot it, the information I got was that the drivers had been installed, but it was not processing.
Indeed, I didn't had any output from V4A MKM. The sound was the same as ever.
What I did:
I flashed the V4A for s7 edge. I tried to install the apk, but couldn't.
After that, I opened the V4A MKM apk, every configuration I had done was in order, and It was processing.
Don't know why, but it worked fine.
Hope this will help

Android Q: Viper4android compatible?

I've been trying to get viper4android working on Android q for quite some time but the module and the app itself does not want work at all. Plus when viper asks you to install the driver from the app it will end up in a bootloop. Has anybody found a temp workround for it?
Device: Pixel 2 XL Android version: Q Beta 3
I'm having a similar issue, only the driver install is asked again upon reboot ;_;
Thats only why i rollback from Q.
Total**** sound without
Ok, got it working on beta 3, using the apk 2.7.1.0 from XDA. It appears to install as a magisk module, along with AML. It didn't work on my first try, then all was good. I need to run it in compatibility mode from the menu. https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx
In android P what version did you use?
Always used the magisk repo version before- I tried this many times on Q, with and without AML, but always got the dreaded install driver dialogue. Also tried SE Linux permissive, but no luck. I've never used the apk before, but am sat here now listening to music quite happily. It's survived a couple of reboots (just checking).

Hm, I just tried that. I downloaded the one off XDA LABS and checked compatibility mode on the app. Still showing up as driver not installed. Viper4Android is literally the key element for my phones such a good module.
Try another reboot?

I just upgraded to Android 10 on my Pixel 2XL and have Viper running now. Download stable 2.7.1.0 from XDA Labs, grant root with Magisk. Check compatibility mode THEN install the driver. Restart, make changes, and then be sure to check "Attach audio effects" in settings once you make your changes.

Ok, here's what you gotta do to get it to work, this is the ONLY method I've had consistently work for me from beta 3-public release(did it an hour ago and worked perfectly)
First, uninstall any viper you have also make sure you completely uninstall audio modification library if you have it installed, not disable, uninstall it and reboot after uninstalling what I've listed.
After you're all booted back up, install viper from labs (link in this thread)(Also, forget about compatibility mode, don't use it) now open viper but do NOT install the driver yet, just open the application then go to magisk and install audio modification library but dont let magisk reboot the phone after it installs. Once installation completed, go back to viper and install the driver and let it reboot. Once booted, go straight to magisk and DISABLE audio modification library (uncheck the box next to it if you dont get what I mean) don't uninstall it. After disabling AML head back to viper and install the driver again. Now once rebooted is the moment of truth, if you open viper and its installed you're obviously done but if it's not installed you have to take this next step: don't install the driver just yet, go to magisk and re-enable AML then back to viper and install the driver. I don't see why this would not work for you guys, I know this isn't the easiest tutorial to follow but make sure you follow it to a T, if you mess any step up you need to start from scratch and uninstall both AML and viper and start again.
Good luck guys and may the audiophile Gods be on your side through this process!

Take a bow good sir, it worked! Had to follow the steps to the end as first time around it didn't work. Now seems to be alright (see attached)
For anyone else wondering, I upgraded from Aug 9.0 build to Q (020) last night by flashing the factory ROM without wipe. Rooted, ads disabled and now ViperFX working. Life is goooood :angel:

By enabling, I meant turning on the master limiter and other settings. I adjusted mine with a nice YouTube track playing in the background and it all worked a treat. Yet to do my Bluetooth earphones though

@1dopewrx05 I followed your mini tutorial to a T and it worked perfectly. Thank you for taking the time to do this, I really appreciate it. Just updated my old faithful to 10 earlier and gonna mess around with some of the neat features. I can't live without Viper, it's essential to me.
