I'm looking for the Viper4Android version that could be downloaded under the Magisk modules. I seem to remember that it said 4.4.4.4 (2.5.0.5) zhuhang attached
I'm talking about the older equalizer with the sliders that are nicer to me, I just find them better and easier to set than the new equalizer

Hi,

Fixed.
I downloaded 'Solid Explorer' from the Google Playstore. I don't really get it. I don't have access with 'Root Explorer', but with 'Solid Explorer' I can. 🤔

Tnx 4 reply

Click to collapse
Okay here's your solution. If you have twrp just use file manager andmove the folder from your sd card to whatever.
Another way; any recovery. Click update or whatever it is to get to adb sideload. Then just and adb push your folder to /datalapp whatever
Another way; same as above use adb push just while booted.

Does anyone here use YouTube Vanced and YouTube Music Vanced? Any idea why Viper4Android only gets hooked by YouTube Music Vanced and Spotify, and not by YouTube Vanced, Poweramp, SoundCloud, etc.?

When I close Spotify, it releases Viper, but YouTube Music Vanced does not. I have to force close Viper for YM Vanced to release it, and I get a persistent notification until I do.

Just updated my Pixel6Pro, and installed Magisk, all the usual stuff we do when we update, but I can't get V4A to work now.

Keep getting this screen, it downloads, then when opened, says the same, and repeats over and over.

Any idea how to fix?

TIA

    ViPER4Android FX
    FX is the main control panel of ViPER’s Audio with all popular ViPER’s Audio settings.

    ViPER4Android XHiFi (Stopped)
    XHiFi has less settings compare to FX. It has superior audio reconstruction which mainly used for restoring lossy audio quality.

    FX Key Features
    ★ NEW: FET Compressor ★
    New compressor / limiter simulating operation of FET circuits.

    ★ NEW: Quad-Channel Convolver ★
    IRS support extends to 4-channels. *Requires special IRS files*

    ★ AnalogX ★
    Richer and warmer sound by simulating the sound signature of pure class A amplifier. *v2.4.x and above+*

    ★ ViPER-DDC (Now Cuztomizable!) ★
    Enjoy near HIFI sound on your headphones. *Not all models supported*

    ★ Spectrum Extension ★
    Make your music sound lossless with enhanced high frequencies.

    ★ x86 Platform Support ★
    Viper4Android supports x86 (Atom/Core i3/i5/i7) platforms.

    ★ USB/Dock effect Support ★
    ViPER4Android supports USB/Dock audio output.

    ★ Speaker Optimization ★
    First effect for speakers. Try it yourself.

    ★ Channel Pan ★
    Controls left/right channel output. Its not very useful unless your headphone is imbalance or faulty one side. It will be a cure for you.

    ★ Differential Surround / Haas Effect ★
    This is an old feature which ViPER520 had removed from FX in early days.
    But after many users requesting it, ViPER520 bring it back to FX
    More info on Haas Effect: http://www.mixcoach.com/creating-depth-the-haas-effect-2/

    ★ ViPER Fidelity Control ★
    ★ ViPER Bass ★
    With different bass modes, you can have greater bass experience than before!
    ★ ViPER Clarity ★
    With the latest Clarity mode selection, you can balance up heavy bass with high clarity audio that you can never imagine before!

    ★ Headphone Surround+ (VHS+) ★
    With this VHS+, V4A made its way to achieve great surround technologies for Android.

    ★ Auditory System Protection (Cure Tech+) ★
    With normal audio system, listening for more than three hours will feel fatigue, dizzy, tinnitus, irritated and other symptoms.
    This is a normal reaction, heavy bass and high volume could cause permanent damage to the human auditory system, but other phenomena can restore through resting.
    Viper as a listening experience professional will not ignore this problem. Therefore put a lot of effort to study how to make a "Healing" sound technology, just a small success. But thinking on how to let users experience it.

    ★ Convolver ★
    When an Impulse Response Sample(IRS) is loaded, V4A will process the sound to show the same characteristics of the loaded sample. Through Convolution, samples with effects such as equalizer, surround, reverberation, tube etc can be loaded.
    Download and extract IRS files to <storage>/ViPER4Android/Kernel/<paste files here>

    ★ FX Compatible Mode (Only in 4.x) ★
    Compatible Mode supports large variety of music players and the players' own EQ/sound effects (system-provided/third party)
    Therefore, you don't have to select V4A in Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose anything other than V4A. Just run V4A app and the effects will be working with anything else.
    1. In option, switch to Compatible Mode. Reboot, done.
    2. In Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose other than V4A.
    3. Run V4A app and configure the settings then the effects will work together with the one you chose in Sound Settings.​

    ----------------------------------------------
    Last Update Log
    Note: FX v2.3.2.5 onwards:
    1. Fully support x86 platform, but not fully optimised yet. (Using VHS+/Convolver may increase battery usage)
    2. Fully support true octa-core devices.
    3. Correctly-installed Busybox is required before installing V4A.

    If you see V4A installation pop-up loop, its probably due to incomplete root OR htc_audio_effects.conf    ​

    F.A.Q
    Updated on October 22, 2013
    HOT: Why some settings are missing?
    A: Because you didn't read update log.

    HOT: Why cannot switch driver mode? (battery saving or high quality)
    A: Only CPU with NEON have choices. To change, uninstall and reinstall.

    HOT: Why no effect?
    A: See Troubleshoot.

    1. Which to install? FX or XHiFi or Both?
    A: The difference is explained in V4A main page. Install FX first. XHiFi is optional.

    2. Where is the build.prop lines in instructions?
    A: This step is optional. Those lines are not in every device. You can skip this.

    3. Can I still install V4A if I already using other sound mods?
    A: Yes, after installation, open V4A app and switch to Compatible Mode.

    4. Why installation fail?
    A: Root or SU binary issues. Use latest SuperSU.

    5. Why is superuser not supported?
    A: V4A does support superuser. Some superuser version have bugs, please use a stable version of it.

    See more:
    6. Why music lag after display off?
    A: This is due to CPU speed too low when screen if off. Make sure you are not using some battery saving CPU governor.
    Switch CPU governor to ondemand/interactive to increase CPU speed or increase minimum clock speed.

    7. Where is minimal phase equalizer?
    A: FIR Equalizer is the name of our EQ, minimal phase is a type of EQ. Its activated for High Quality Mode and Super Audio Quality drivers.

    8. Why does the effect keeps on skipping/cutting (on off on off spontaneously)?
    A: Submit bug report.

    9. Why no effect on Third-party players such as Poweramp and TTPOD?
    A: Disable their own sound effects.

    10. Why no effect in MIUI player?
    A: Try turn off MIUI default equalizer.

    11. Im using Meizu, Flyme system, why effect gone after i display lyrics?
    A: Flyme modified Android's Audio principle, so lyrics will be treated as music effect by the music player, so V4A cant be used.

    12. V4A FX/XHiFi effects suddenly disappeared?
    A: Android system kills certain processes due to memory limits. Install V4A app as system app (Put in /system/app/ and restart)

    13. Why there is background noise when using V4A effects?
    A: This is Android's MusicFX bug, this will happen on all other sound mods.
    Suggestion: Backup and Delete /system/lib/soundfx/libbundlewrapper.so

    14. Why bass reduced in v2.3.x?
    A: Due to sound improvement, audio effects are more precise than before. Therefore, re-adjust your settings.

    15. Why is volume reduced in v2.3.x?
    A: Volume controlled to reduce noise level. (THIS does not mean you can reduce noise by lowering volume xD)

    16. Why is there more CPU/Battery load in v2.3.x?
    A: Quality improved for NEON devices. For now you cannot change to battery saving priority.

    17. Why ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi always FC?
    A: Uninstall and Reinstall V4A. If not submit bug.

    18. Why ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi creates unexpected effects and different from other users?
    A: Use Normal Mode and disable other sound mods such as Noozxoide. If not, reinstall.

    19. ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi doesnt run after reboot?
    A: Check anti-virus or any startup manager whether V4A is disabled on startup.

    20. V4A FX/XHiFi effect gone after using data-killer?
    A: Please add ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi to data-killer whitelist or exception.

    21. V4A XHiFi effects gone after reaching certain volume? (~70%)
    A: This is due to Sony Xperia hearing protection library.
    Suggestion: Backup and Delete /system/lib/soundfx/libhearingprotection.so

    22. Why volume reduces after 10 seconds?
    A: This is not caused by V4A. Most probably you installed a bad and faulty xLOUD, ClearPhase or S-Force Front Surround port.

    23. In-call volume reduced?
    A: V4A will not affect call volume.

    24. What if my phone/tablet cannot detect headset plugin?
    A: Use lock effect mode and choose headset.

    25. V4A effects will spoil internal speaker/headset?
    A: Firstly, there's an audiophile limit in your phone, even if you max every single settings in V4A, u will never achive that limit.
    If the limit is achieved, your ears will blown off before the headset.
    If your earphone is not used to high volume/bass, with long period of high volume/bass will cause your headset to spoil (without V4A it will also spoil)
    For speaker, if a new phone straight away max the volume, within few days there will be distortion. Start off with 50~70% volume and after some time only max the volume.

    4. [OPTIONAL] Attach latest IRS Starter Pack as add-on/optional material for users to start with.


    Extra Tips
    1. Make it a system app.
    2. Copy assets/libv4a_fx/xhifi_xxx.so to /system/lib/soundfx/
    Note: xxx can be gb for 2.3.x, ics for 4.0~4.2 or jb for 4.3
    3. For android 2.3, done. For android 4.x, continue step 4.
    4. Make modification in audio_effect.conf
    (1). Under “libraries {“, add:
    Code: 
     v4a_fx {
          path /system/lib/soundfx/libv4a_fx_xxx.so
        }
#NECESSARY FOR XHIFI
        v4a_xhifi {
          path /system/lib/soundfx/libv4a_xhifi_xxx.so
        }

    (2). Under “effects {“ add:
    Code: 
            v4a_standard_fx {
          library v4a_fx
          uuid 41d3c987-e6cf-11e3-a88a-11aba5d5c51b
        }
#NECESSARY FOR XHIFI
        v4a_standard_xhifi {
          library v4a_xhifi
          uuid d92c3a90-3e26-11e2-a25f-0800200c9a66
        }
