Remove AudioFX and add Viper4Android in Sultan's ROM - OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In Sultan's ROM or any other Cyanogenmod 13 based ROMs, by default AudioFx is installed. Is it possible to to remove it and make Viper4Android as the default application?
I am using XOSP ROM. It has Viper4Android. It used to be a very stable ROM. I want to move to Sultan' ROM.
So can anybody provide me the steps? I also need the download link for Viper4Android application. Has anybody ever tried before?

I'm using Sultan's ROM and I have Viper4Android working flawlessly using the script in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/viper4android-universal-fix-cm13-t3337289

i'm on latest Sultan's rom and use Viper, all fine. you have to:
1) install BusyBox (grab stericson's installer from playstore or flash this
2) flash "MusicFX Installer and AudioFX Remover.zip" from here it's the last attached file on OP
3) flash ViperAudio zip, choose the version you prefer from previous link. i personally use clean Viper|Audio 6.1, there's a flashable zip attached here.
some people say SELinux has to be set on "Permissive" but i have it on stock "Enforcing" mode and Viper works fine. Maybe it's needed just for first install, don't remember exactly but make your tests and see what one works better for you.

there's difference, you can hear it actually works but the speaker itself isn't nothing impressive so a simple DSP won't do miracles

No issues, however there's some work around. Irs should be loaded under 0/legacy/ViPER/Kernel and this particular folder shows up when I browse through ES xplorer, while on Legacy turn ON show hidden folder then tap on legacy to see this folder.
EDIT: Seriously, I don't get this **** folder very quickly, I have to try atleast ten times with above trick to access this. Later I created a shortcut folder on the home page.
EDIT 2: Somewhere on the web saw this route for that folder /data/media/legacy/ViPER4Android/Profile. I don't have device right now to check, you can check this path as well.

Is it the only folder showing under legacy? For me when I go to that path under legacy only viper folder is available, you might need to enable show hidden folder optiom to see it.

[MOD][Lollipop] Add 0.75 animation scale in developer options

Note: This mod is only working on scrubbers lollipop port.
I've always preferred an 0.75 animation scale. 1.0 is too slow and 0.5 is to fast.
If you like it too just follow these instructions:
- Flash attached zip in recovery
- Reboot and head in to settings. In About phone tap the build number 5 times to enable developer options.
- In developer options scroll down to the 3 types of animation scale.
- Now you should have a 0.75 option. Set this and let your device fly.
Status: Beta 1
Uploaded: 2014-12-08
I'm just saying I turn them all off to 0 and makes everything much faster.
Actually turning them all of might give you issues. Animations are not solely there for the eye pleasure. And everything is not "much faster" compared to 0.75.
0.75 suits me best. And IMHO the lollipop animations aren't that bad

I'm not sure which of my actions screwed up this mod.
I had already enabled developer options so I skipped step #2.
I had also flashed the navbar mod before flashing this one.

Other things I may have done to break this mod include following this guide to get viper working:

You can try Viper4Android though, its like DSP which comes with Cyanogen but it has more options.

Yes, I tried it right now, in CWM and TWRP. Not working again on both. Anyways, the zip's script is supposed to mount system automatically. I'm not sure what is causing it to not work when its working on some devices.
And yes, I am on Scrubber's Lolipop port right now.
I've got no idea why it's not working for you... :/
Cam you try to push the settings apk manually and see if that helps.
Oh wait @jnx_r try set selinux back to enforcing.

Well, I haven't tried out every setting yet to come up with my own preferences yet. But yes I can confirm that its working as advertised.
Just play any audio track and while its playing, change the settings in V4A and see the difference. If you're unable to notice anything, try the extreme setting, or increase the decibels in the optional effects you prefer.
If you still can't notice any difference, then its about time you changed your headset, I'm using $450 IEMs. From my short time with V4A, I found it to be more versatile than DSP with more flexibility.
Now about what you were asking, I'm currently using AGC gain at moderate level. Extreme makes things really loud. Anyways, I'm happy that it fixes one of the main complaints about Sony phones'. ie. low audio levels.
Equalizer is disabled at this point, but I may tinker with it as I change tracks. Bass level boost & Clarity[makes audio crisper by amplifying high freqs a bit] are left untouched too as my IEMs can produce bass pretty well, and enabling those options will simply be overkill. But I do imagine using those options when I am listening on something which doesn't couple with my ear canals perfectly.
Virtual Surround is also left disabled, along with Binaural levels but I may enable Virtual Surround, during movies or extended listening to counter listening fatigue.
-
Go through the OP for V4A once for details regarding the settings and you should be set:

PS: I'm using it with Walkman app from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728110
It works flawlessly, along with other Sony media apps. xLoud and other proprietary Sony Audio technologies like Clear Stereo and Clear Phase are working too.
^ Thank you so much jnx_r for for your help, much appreciated.
I will play around with the settings until I'm satisfied with the results!
Please people don't discuss viper in this thread.
@jnx_r push Settings.apk found in the flashable zip to /system/priv-app/Settings and set permissions to 644.
The flashable zip should definitely work though. We are on the same system, uses the same recovery (I use CWM).
Flash it again and show me a screenshot of the windows animation scale options please.

Bootanimation.zip support for Samsung Devices - Install all your favourite BootAnim!

THREAD INDEX:
I. INTRODUCTION
II. REQUIREMENTS
III. INSTALLATION GUIDE (THROUGH RECOVERY)
IV. BOOTANIMATION.ZIP INSTALLATION GUIDE
Second Post. DOWNLOADS
#_____________________________#​
I. Introduction
As you know Samsung Stock Roms uses a special .qmg for the bootanimation but the procedure that converts all the bootanimation.zip to .qmg ones doesn't give good results getting a low quality bootanimation.
Android uses a binary called bootanimation to run the bootanimations, and it is situated inside the system/bin folder, Samsung has modified this binary in order to get it working with .qmg files.
-Why don't we restore the native bootanimation.zip support?
II. Requirements
This mod has been tested on many samsung devicesl!
These are all the requirements required to add the spport for the Native Android Bootanimations:
Samsung device
Rooted Smartphone
Recovery Installed (TWRP or CWM)
II. Installation guide (THROUGH RECOVERY)
The installation procedure is really easy because i've made a simple zip that makes everything accessible!
Perfrom the following steps:
Download the proper zip according to your android version from the second post
Reboot your smartphone to the recovery and install the downloaded zip
Now you have the Native Android bootanimation.zip support
Now, once you reboot your smartphone, you will see the stock Android Bootanimation.
Did you get a softbrick?
-My zip automatically creates a zip that allows to restore the previous bootanimation binary. Reboot to recovery and install the StockBootanimationRestorer.zip inside the /vr-theme folder and report your device, please
III. Bootanimation.zip installation guide
Now as you have the bootanimation.zip support you have to look for a bootanimation style repository, and inside XDA i've found this useful thread:
[BootAnimation & Shutdownanimation] MASSIVE G3 Collection <<Over 66+>> 10/9/14 -> (Thanks @KachowPow)
Easy procedure to install bootanimations.zip :
Download the style you like from the thread posted above or alternative sources
Download the Flashable_Bootanimation.zip schema and extract it
Open the /system/media folder and put the bootanimation.zip that you have downloaded (Do not extract the animation.zip)
Compress all the folders (META-INF & /system) in zip without any compression or other options
Copy the compressed zip inside your phone memory and begin with the installation procedure via Recovery
Reboot and ENJOY!

On your Note 4 by default you have the bootanimation with Fireworks, and if you wanna install custom bootanimations you have to create them (in .qmg) losing a lot of quality. With this guide now you can install all the bootanimations you want.
Follow the guide and then choose the bootanimation you like from here Bootanimations 1440 x 2560 repository by KachowPow @ XDA

THREAD UPDATED - ALMOST ALL SAMSUNG DEVICES SUPPORT AND ANDROID OS
Well, lately users do not read long threads! :')
Anyway i made an update on the topic adding the support for almost all samsung devices and android os.
Lemme know your device model if it has worked or not!
After flashing the zip for KitKat on my g355h, the splash screen was shown up (as always) but it continued up until the home screen.....no boot animation. Also there is a pre-installed bootanimation.zip in /system/media/here, that came with the stock firmware......
Hey, does this support Galaxy J5? Also, nice work dude, i really appreciate your work.
EDIT:
It works for Galaxy J5. just installed a cyanogenmod bootanimation, works fine. Thanks Jertlok for this amazing mod!

i got it work by replacing the files in system/media, its okay
secondly, is there a way to change the boot splash screen and/or the shutdownanimation??
probably this only works on aosp roms...
I have a Note 3 with a Note 7 port, so I flashed the MM zip.
Does not work unfortunately, stays in the initial Samsung Galaxy Note 3 screen and jumps straight to lock screen (it skips boot animation entirely)
I dunno if I should blame this on the bootanimation itself or that I am using a custom ROM
Any suggestions?
Does this work on stock firmware with root and custom recovery?
Works perfectly on Note3neo (sm-n7505), is there any way to also change the shutdown animation ?

You could try to update to a newer Java version. As I see in the image you use Java 6. Maybe it depands on that.

I've update my Java to version 8 but somehow it's still 6 in the sofware. I have to fully uninstall all version of Java on my computer and reinstall the 7 version and now it works.
Thanks !
problem Solved
Copy the files-.apk to their folder using your filemanager app
and /system/priv-app/CameraCommon/CameraCommon.apk
You must have system-partition with read/write/delete access.
Dont forget do change file privilege chmod with the Root explorer touch-interface to permission-mode "644"

Okay, so you have two files, the .apk file for the Xposed Installer app and the .zip, which you need to flash for it to work.
It is now super easy to flash it using TWRP, which is a custom recovery now available for C4/5 thanks to @bigrammy (I'm very thankful for the hard work and detailed instructions!):
forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-c5-ultra/development/bootloader-unlocked-custom-recovery-t3285521
Read everything carefully. I was able to get TWRP and SuperSU then easily flashed the Xposed Framework .zip via TWRP.
According to the second post in the thread I linked to above, it's confirmed to be working on Firmware Version 5.0.2 and 5.1.1 for the C5 Single, Dual, and World Wide for all Variants with Boot Loader 0.5, so the method may work for your phone.

I'm sorry if this is an OT post, but I can't seem to find a dedicated place for the C4, and the C4 and C5 seem so close in terms of specs (other than the screen size, for example) that they're often used interchangeably in this forum, so I wanted to post about my own experience with the Xperia C4 (E5303). I want to confirm that I was also able to get the Xposed Framework working, gave it root privileges via SuperSU, and even installed a module. It seems to be working fine so far.
However, I also ran into the problem of the camera and album FC. Since none of the files linked to here are for my device and I'm afraid that using them might have an adverse affect because they're only compatible with the C5 Ultra, I'm going to try the Deodexer and report back here to let you know what happens.

Could you please provide more details about this error? What were you doing?
I think I got a similar error when using LBD2.5, but I know why. I tried to deodex my system folder, and it failed to deodex the CameraCommon app because I didn't delete the "arm" folder in CameraCommon. I delete it then received the error you mentioned above probably because everything but CameraCommon had already been deodexed. What I did to resolve it was copying the respective files from my device to my pc once more then trying again, and it was successful, so it's worth a try.
Okay, I can't seem to figure this out... I was able to download LBD2.5, and it worked fine when deodexing CameraCommon.apk with no errors after I followed all the instructions in the first post (only leaving arm64 in the CameraCommon directory), but after a reboot it still didn't work. My album seems to be working fine now, though, and I'm not sure why that is.
I tried leaving just arm in the directory and then tried neither arm64 nor arm, but they both failed to even doedex completely. Nothing seems to be working for me. I'm able to do everything in the first post, but the camera never works.
I even downloaded the file attached, although it's not for my Xperia C4 (E5303), and that didn't work either. I'm going to try a free camera app for the time being until I can figure this out. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

I'm happy for you! :good: However, mine still isn't working, even when I just tried again by downloading an already deodexed apk and giving it the right permissions.

I had the same problem with my C5 Ultra Dual E5563. I've tried both downloaded deodexed file on xda and deodexed the file myself but none of them work, of course I've set chmod 644 for the file.
I did it like that: gave root permission to es file manager, deleted cameracommon.apk under system priv app. then reboot and again placed the deodexed apk to priv app and changed name to cameracommon. then gave the permissions 0644 and again did a reboot then it got fixed. hopefully it helps you

Viper4android Driver status : abnormal and unsupported?

So recently I've rooted my galaxy s5 tmobile sm-g900t and install viper4andriod. I have Busybox installed through google play and installed on both my xu and system folder. I also made sure there was enough space. Around 30mb of space. I then installed SeLinuxMode Changer and Universal init.d so that i can force the SeLinixmode changer to stay on permissive. There is a bug where restarting and exiting out the app would reset SeLinux mode you have selected. Now that that SeLinusMode restarts on permissive, i was able to install Viper4Andriod. I then continued and installed the driver, but after installation, i checked to see if anything changed in the sound. Nothing changed so i checked the driver status. It turns out to be Abnormal and unsupported. I'm running 2.3.40, and have also tried the latest version of Viper4Andriod, but both doesn't seem to work. I have stock touchwiz rom and completely disabled and removed Knox. I checked my root with Root Checker, and it passed. But for some reason going into recovery mode, it asks me to install supersu because it was missing. But at the same time, i am running PhilzTouch, which is outdated. I have tried other methods, but it doesn't seem to work. I just need to get pass the driver status problem.
If anyone know the solution to this, I'd very much appreciate it if you help us all out.
Same for me : with 6.0.1 rooted, the driver was unsupported.
What worked for me was to install viper4android from the play store, as the 2.3.4.0 version has better sound (in my own opinion) than the 2.4.0.1 that can be found elsewhere. After installing the driver in high quality, it showed as unsupported.
I had to flash two additional files that you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52106530&postcount=609 : Viper4A-[Build.Prop-Tweaks]-CWM.zip and Viper4A-[Soundfix-LibFiles]-CWM.zip. I am no expert, and probably only the second file is required but I flashed both and it just worked.
Also, you don't need a SElinux permissive kernel. You can simply flash the file linked here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61242973#post61242973, and it will patch your system. As long as you have supersu installed, you will be able to use viper4android in enforcing.
For full steps, you can also have a look at maximumentropy post here :

Install the APK in the standard way (not in priv-app or most convolvers won't work).
Install the highest quality drivers and reboot to recovery
Flash the update here from recovery to allow V4A execution with SELinux Enforcing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61242973#post61242973
Flash the Viper4A-[Soundfix-LibFiles]-CWM.zip from this message (but not the others) to replace the system sound libraries in /system/lib/soundfx with V4A-compatible versions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52106530&postcount=609
Reboot
In Viper settings, use Normal mode, not Compatible.
Enable V4A-FX in the desired profile (it is not necessary to use Force Enable V4A)

Well I am sure that it works both for SM-G900F on 5.0 and 6.0.1 roms. The best for you is to make a backup of your system before trying. As it only impacts the system and not the kernel, it should work whether it is g900f or g900t...

Mmh I answered just above to that question? I tested it both on touchwiz with android 5 (lollipop) and 6 (marshmallow) and it works! It said "only kitkat" because at that time lollipop wasn't out you can see that the original post was dated from early 2014.

For some reason the driver keeps asking me to install it after flashing 2 the zips.
Guys, can you check this ROM(lollipop 5.1.1) for geiti94 which have all ready included this app. Very stable and battery friendly.

Is your kernel still permissive? If not you can also try to flash the supolicy fix.
You can also try to remove completly the viper4android app and reinstall it.
Lastly there are some identified issues with some supersu versions. I am sure that the driver installation works with supersu 2.52 (my main one when I was on lollipop) and 2.68 (the one I use on marshmallow). Changing your supersu to 2.52 could perhaps help you. This is identified in the main viper4android thread here "If you see V4A installation pop-up loop, its probably due to incomplete root."
Hi. I have a G900H with stock rom, just rooted and Selinux enforcing and Viper works just fine. I just installed it and also installed busybox and flashed a file I got somewhere on xda to permit Viper on enforcing. I also had to verify my settings on supersu to uncheck the entry for namespaces. Hope it helps

Also make sure "Mount Namespace Separation" is off in SuperSU.

[TUTORIAL][ROOT] Install ViPER4Android FX on A5 (2017).

Hello people!
First of all, excuse my lousy English! I'm using the translator.
Well, as soon as I upgraded my A5 (2017) to Nougat I looked for tutorials that would allow me to root to remove the useless apps that Samsung inserts into the device, and install those that are useful but not available to the average user (without root).
Among these is the ViPER4Android FX, which I could not use because of the SELinux (enforcing) native Kernel.
I have found a way to work without having to change the kernel.
What we need?
1. The minimum of prior knowledge.
2. Device with root.
3. Recovery modified. (like TWRP)
4. ViPER4Android FX zip file. (thanks guitardedhero)
5. supolicy zip file.
6. audio_effects.conf file.
7. File manager with root privileges. (like Root Browser)
8. Flash facilitator Application. (like Flashify)
9. Busybox. (like Stericson)
10. Application uninstaller. (like Root Uninstaller)
How to proceed?
1. With the Application Uninstaller remove Adapt Sound and SoundAlive.
2. With the flash facilitator, flash the ViPER4Android FX zip, after supolicy and reboot.
3. When you start, install Busybox.
3. Open the File Manager, navigate to /system/vendor/etc, and rename the audio_effects.conf file to audio_effects.conf.bak.
4. Copy the downloaded file of the same name, and paste it into the folder.
5. Set the -rw-r-r-- permission on the file and reboot.
6. When you start, open the ViPER4Android FX, allow root access and, if prompted, install the driver.
7. Set the settings in the application and enjoy a great sound experience!
Attached is the file with the settings I use. Put it in the ViPER4Android folder, at the root of your storage, and load the perfil in the application.
All merit goes to the people who made it possible by creating files and tutorials. I'm just sharing the information.
Works . Thank you :good:

Any help guys
Hi, has somebody tested V4A Fx fully working in A520F nougat? I'm extremely impressed with the audio quality of V4A Fx and I am using it in my Lenovo smartphone. I'm gonna root my A5 device if this is fully working. Appreciate any feedback please. TIA
@am2006 The procedure is described in the post, however I do not use the Magisk, so I do not know if the problem is related to it.
It can be the busybox installation site.
