LDAC 8.1 - Razer Phone Questions & Answers

So I have been trying to get LDAC or apt-X working on my razer phone but it has not worked. I am on the latest stock ROM rooted with magisk (via ADB not TWRP) and with the rayglobe magisk module installed but it just stays on AAC. My headphones are Sony WH-1000XM2 and LDAC was working when using the resurrection remix ROM from the development thread but I had to uninstall the ROM due to instability and no sign of progression. Any help would be appreciated.

They locked it down somehow I think. I have 2 threads in here asking for help but no one seems to be able to help me. For added reference, here is the error produced even when all the files are added with root to enable aptx or ldac

I installed the magisk aptx&aptxHD module and modified /system/vendor/build.prop then aptx got working.
(I couldn't test with aptxHD or LDAC cos I have no compatibe device with them.)
Code:
persist.vendor.bt.a2dp_offload_cap=sbc-aac
to
Code:
persist.vendor.bt.a2dp_offload_cap=sbc-aptx-aptXHD
This is the same parameter the magisk module set to /system/build.prop.
To guess, LDAC will may work if an appropriate value set to the prop.

This worked to enable switching to them however now Bluetooth just crashes. I changed it to persist.vendor.bt.a2dp_offload_cap=sbc-aptx-aptxhd-ldac
Edit:
Some interesting notes. I tried a few steps to debugging including readding AAC to the list which did nothing but if I only add aptx then the Bluetooth app no longer crashes however no sound plays so I'm guessing it's the lib files that are not correct? I just used the aptx package in magisk so if there's any other that I'm missing or other suggestions that would be useful

I still can't get it to switch to aptx (the one I want) or ldac. It still falls back to SBC usually or aac if I'm on a different speaker. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm on slot a on my device, rooted with magisk and I have tried multiple aptx modules. Is there a specific build.prop editor you use? Both my speakers and headphones support it and work with other devices and I'm still getting the error I replied with above (page one)
I'm an experienced rooter, so don't be afraid to fully explain any steps I may be missing out!

I used root explorer and changed the build.prop entries in system\vendor\. In the first place I used the root essentials build.prop editor which shows a different build.prop. other than that I literally just edited that line and that allowed me to change it. I can't think of anything else I did other than install a bunch of library files which I'm guessing you found the same ones as me because it was very limited on what was available and up to date

OK, awesome. You rock. That got it to select aptx - now my 2nd problem, no audio! I can see in dev options and bt settings that it's showing aptx, but I get no audio (well, I get an almost click click click noise) then my Bluetooth adaptor for my headphones crashes. And it forces my headphones to turn off. I tried 3 different magisk modules for the library files, any ideas - I was getting SBC audio before

Sounds like the same problem I am having. Aptx doesn't work and aptx HD and LDAC just crash Bluetooth. Genuinely have no idea where to go from here. It must be a driver or library file. Real shame it's not working.

OK, so last night and this morning I have been just messing with things. I no longer crash my headphones and force them to turn off, but I still have no audio over aptx - though at least it's not crashing my headphones (Bluetooth in the phone was always OK). There is one error I'm getting and I'm not sure if its related of not, but is to do with a buffer failing to release. See my screenshots of logs (just documenting here for reference)

so basically i went your path a few days ago and dropped that idea. please post updates if you manage to get aptx\aptx hd\ldac working (Razer Phone + Sony WH-1000 XM2)

So, I might be an experienced rooter (no 1 click toolkits here) I am NOT a developer. I've tried a combination of a bunch of things to try and get this to work, and nothing has!
I did however get it to work by installing a GSI (basically a rom) to the device, but even that was painful to get working (well, installed). Now running AOSP 8.1 GSI w/gapps and I flashed magisk for root. I then installed the Aptx magisk module from the built in repo and it works perfectly fine. Not sure if It's something in razer software as I'm technically more up to date now so it's not like I was using the wrong drivers.
Can't find a decent dolby atmos I can install that will work along side v4a, all the magisk modules are for android 7 or 6.
Otherwise that's the only way I have found so far, sorry guys! - benefit is, other than AOSP's ****ty camera app (use the gcam port instead), literally everything works fine, and I even get stronger vibration on a GSI

Yeah I might move onto that too. To try to fix the Bluetooth issues. I can only assume razer excluded some of the functionality but since it's baked into android 8 I don't see why they would remove it.

Razer and their development team is already informed about this issue, and they have correctly addressed it, and all the Bluetooth issues (which were a few), in the upcoming update MR2. No ETA.

Go ahead, I can't since I'm on a Pie GSI.
If anyone has an LDAC BT Headset please give this a try.

Great news, I just spent 2 hours updating my phone, with flashing back to stock because the OTA did not want to update me since I had Magisk, then putting everything back like before.
The update did not change anything.

Tried to do my research on issues with the Razer phone before getting it, but I guess this is just one of those things you don't comprehend until actually having the device in your hands. I came from a Oneplus One on Lineage OS and am comfortable with flashing (but no experience with GSI yet).
My razer phone is stock and not rooted. Anything I can do to contribute to test getting Apt-X working? The settings says my phone is up to date (build number OPM1.171019.011-RZR-180803.6033).

Got the official Pie installed - no LDAC nor AptX still.

Also do I need to install anything (AML)?

I was reading through a lot of that thread and it looks like it's still based for pie and there was a section in there saying that you have to change your build prop setting to SDK level 28 if you are on oxygen 10 and Android 10 you'll be SDK 29 so I was getting force closes and I took a big risk when do the build prop edited my SDK level 228 and went straight into a bootloop. So I had to actually do a factory reset. I then restore from twrp, but I screwed up and restored everything what I should have just done a system and data restore only because then I did a soft brick and had to use the MSM tool and start all over again at Android 9! Lol.. so I know guitardedhero was making special media files for audio library they were . so extensions... I'm going to keep digging because on Android 10 I've got ice sound working which is an Asus driver and I can even change the four configurations as well as the 11 different sound profiles fall through terminal emulator. I also have a flashable DTS 2.0

Yeah that what im concerned about to change the builprop SDK to 28 instead of that i change a code on the zip so it bypass the SDK check to able it flash on SDK 29....it was a test but apparently i didn't has any problem about a Bluetooth or anything! And there is couple people successful flash it as well but imma caught up with lastest zip and lemme see if i could mod it to work on OOS 10!and yep by default it only support Android pie only! So imma try troubleshooting as much as possible before releasing it!
Updated to latest Dolby Atmos 0.727 zip and it attached on the first page... I'll leave 0.64 zip there just in case anyone need it! And once 727 zip it work without any problem on 10.3.0 for me at least (testing on AAC,LDAC even aptx HD) but let me know

I would like to personally apologise to you for posting information that caused much frustration and inconvenience for you.
That was irresponsible of me to state workarounds to circumvent a restriction I implemented without knowing the risks that could be involved and not just taking out the restriction myself.
Thank you for sharing your experience. If I had not seen it just now, I would have still assumed such an action you took to be harmless.
I did remove this restriction many versions ago after learning that many were having success on Android 10 and the latest zip a couple hours ago seems to provide a much higher success rating and the support for existing audio mods and their effects seems to now be in place if you ever get an itch to try again without needing to do any hacky, ill-advised stuff like what I said last week.

My Bluetooth stops working after flashing. Reflash of OOS was necessary to get it back.

Bluetooth LDAC

Is there a way to have LDAC bluetooth codec back?
I have Android 9, many months ago was available from Developer Menu, but with latest security patches, it does not work anymore: you can select LDAC from Developer Options but the settings disappear as soon as you get out from the menu.
Before it worked (I have Sony MD-1000X headphone which supports LDAC).

On stock, not even AAC Bluetooth can be selectable after like April 2019 update version (my father's Pioneer car system does have AAC BT mode). It can be selected in Dev Opts, but after you exit the option, it will revert back to SBC (normal) mode and also the audio did not changed too. I guess it's another bug by Xiaomeme that haven't fixed.
...and I have moved out to just using custom ROMs long ago, then these modes (AAC, APTX, etc.) works as intended.

On POSP (and I think many AOSP-based ROMs), it managed to activate the AAC Bluetooth automatically with my father's car stereo. On virtually any Android Pie custom ROMs, most can switch modes to APTX (when I did have the KZ Earphones Bluetooth module with APTX, now dead due to my KZ BT module's capacitor died suddenly).
Ok, I managed to keep stock rom and add at least aptx support with unlocked bootloader + magisk + magisk modules.
Just hope that Xiaomi will fix this with Android 10 update

Any guide or instructions to do that? I'm not so experience with ROMs and magisk...
If I understood you well I need to:
- unlock bootloader
- install magisk and than magisk modules (I can Google)
But no need for root rights and a full custom ROM like POSP, correct?
And no support for Ldac anyway?

Magisk is a rooting tool (like SuperSU) and using modules need root (but custom ROM isn't needed if you just want stock). You need an unlocked bootloader, Magisk manager APK, a patched boot.img (should be matched your stock version 10.0.x.0) and some steps to have it rooted.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...gisk-proper-support-ota-t3836952/post77498252
I unlocked the bootloader using this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-losing-user-data-t4053743
Then installed magisk using this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-install-magisk-proper-support-ota-t3836952 (scroll until the end of the thread to find the jan 2020 patched .img)
And then, installed a magisk module for aptx.
No LDAC for now.

[SOLVED] Help on Android 12 [GSI] Pixel Experience [Alpha] and TWRP

Hi, I did some experiments with the GSI PIXEL EXPERIENCE ALPHA that might interest some developers.
It works properly as is on nairo (moto g 5g plus) except for a few things.
- TWRP recovery gets broken, i think we need a newer version for this phone to work with android 12.
- The audio doesn't get routed in any way (i've tried with apps) to the aux output (headset).
I would take care of this problems if i had knowledge, if anyone can help it's welcome for sure, thanks in advance!

Sure! I've used nonsense notch to create an overlay at 240 pixel from the left of the statusbar, it doesn't work on landscape mode but it's fine for me.
Idk if it works by just inserting it in /system/product/overlay and unzipping it and then maybe installing the apk(?) (Mine it's in a folder that's why i made a zip file)
Overlays are really tricky, i recommend following the guide for the module instead of doing this.
After installation you can go to dev options and under simulate screen cutout you can choose the one you created *DO NOT CHOOSE THE STOCK OPTIONS ON ANDROID 12 THEY WILL SOFTLOCK YOUR PHONE*
I will create a guide on the fixes for gsi roms with your audio tweaks and this one, thank you again, let me know if you succeed!
Again, you shoudl really create one yourself on the custom mode of this module https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/module-n3o-no-nonsense-notch-overlay.4226413/

Sure! I've used nonsense notch to create an overlay at 240 pixel from the left of the statusbar, it doesn't work on landscape mode but it's fine for me.

Ye it's very fortunate it stops working when landscape! I quite like that non-feature

Question Viper 4 Android and Pixel 6 Pro

Has anyone gotten Viper 4 Android to work with the pixel 6 pro yet? If not, are there alternatives? Any guides to doing this would be appreciated! I searched but didn't find much.
Android 12 (Viper4Android)
Has anyone managed to get Viper4Android working on the latest beta of Android 12? The usual methods don't work (makes sense, since its a new OS). Just curious. I like Android 12 so far, but might roll back to 11 if I can't get Viper going...

For those that don't want to change their kernel to permissive due to security reasons, I used this method and is working fine for me. Legacy mode needs to be toggled on.

Anyone get this working yet?

I was referring to the method linked in Post #2 where they said they changed their kernel to permissive. The Android 12 fix file is from another thread which you started and posted the file it. You might want to add a link to your post so people know what "fix" file you are talking about since it's not in this thread, lest people might get confused about what you are talking about.
Or maybe I'll just link it here...

I installed by using the method I had to do for OP8T. Install Audio_Modification_Library Magisk Module (DO NOT REBOOT) -> Install Viper Magisk Module (DO NOT REBOOT) -> Open Viper App (this forces a reboot) -> Remove Audio_Modification_Library. It works great for me in apps like AIMP, but in apps like YouTubeVanced have never worked for me.

Strange it doesn't process with YouTubeVanced for you. It should. Have you tried giving this mod a shot?
EDIT: Actually I think the version located at John Fawkes site is newer than the XDA one, so adding that link.
Audio Compatibility Patch (Formerly Universal deep_buffer Remover) [MMTEx]

@Lughnasadh I'm not currently using the Compatibility Patch. It's mainly because last time I did on the OnePlus phones, my Bluetooth audio would get fubar'd and require a Factory Reset to fix.
Thanks to the community, the Viper4android works for me on Pixe6 PRO, BUT I am unable to activate any VIPER-DDC , Headset correction profiles loading takes no effect, tried a few I see them active but no change in sound. Previously my OnePlus 8Pro worked fine with the same version (Android 12). Does anyone experience similar issue ? Can you please try and let me know.

I don't have answer for your question, perhaps go to their Telegram group to ask for help as you may have more chance there.
I do have something for your consideration. I used V4A for longer than I can remember but it must be over 10 years. However, seems the developer has already quitted the project for quite sometime, the driver has never been updated in the past 7-8 years, we are lucky that it is still working with A12. But everything has an end, I tried it on A13 Beta and it doesn't work with it. If you search the web, you properly going to find that so far no one is able to make it work with A13. The A13 is already in beta 4 and official release could be sometime in next month, unless you are going to give up to update to A13, you better start to find something to replace V4A, my choice is JamesDSP but you may find something better suit your needs.
I prefer presets because I don't know what I'm doing. I ended up moving to PowerAmp and am usually pleased with the sound. If only the developer would enable roor features, man that would be cool.
Thanks acwcanada for the suggestion. I looked at the thread and so far may stick with Android 12 (those crazy audiophiles ) because I could not find 2 key features available in Viper4Android.
1. Headphone frequency response correction (VIPER-DDC or AutoEQ in Wavelet). This feature does not even work for me in Pixel 6 pro A12L , workaround: install wavelet and use its AutoEQ feature.
2. Dynamic System feature of Viper4Android creates bass subharmonics using reference frequencies and algorithm (selectable by choosing headphone type), so it can inject them in the music making it feel much richer and restores lack of low frequencies without "booming" effect created by other bass boosters. So far nothing in this word can beat this Viper4Andoid's feature.
Some good news folks: Viper4Android and Wavelet can be stacked and work in tandem .
Perhaps going to write James to consider the above, unless I missed it.
Cheers and thanks Team !

Question GSI on G30

hello, a few months ago I put a GSI on my moto G30 (ArrowOS), I actually liked this GSI a lot... but I can't use some phone functions like bluetooth and headphones on the P2 output...
I use headphones a lot and I was using one with a USB Type-C output but this headphones is having some problems and I want to go back to using my JBL bluetooth headphones that I stopped using because it doesn't connect with my cell phone...
But I don't remember how to put a GSI and I don't even know a good one that I can have a good performance on battery and in games...
Can someone help me?
Hi. GSI performance doesnt varry that much if at all so pick any you like best.
Look at phhusson's GSI List to find a GSI that is compatible
(Must be a higher or equal Android version to the one your phone has stock and the GSI shoud be A/B and arm64)
Your problems sound quite generic and are mentioned in the GSI Troubleshooting FAQ
Such as:
Wired headphones not getting detected.​Solution 1​Enable alternative headphones detection in phh settings and reboot
This one ^ worked for me and should work for you too i believe.
Bluetooth connecting to device and then disconnecting​Try disabling A2DP offload in phh settings
I've tried this too but cant remember if it worked, what works for me is going to the Bluetooth settings for the device and disabling HD Audio.
You can find more fixes on the link above.
About installing the GSI first flash the stock ROM and then follow Sammm77's GSI Flashing Guide.
You can try ArrowOS again with the fixes above and see if they work or pick another GSI.
If you need any clarifications i would be more than happy to help!
