It seems that you never use magisk...
Execute magisk manager and locate the app list that you have installed... then you will see whether any update for the modules you have installed.

2. install dolby digital plus in magisk manager but don't reboot phone
3. Then keep installing viper in magisk manager but don't reboot phone
4. Execute viper and it will prompt you to install viper driver then reboot phone
5. Keep installing Audio_Modification_Library and then reboot phone
6. Execute dolby and finish setup that you want

It is the Magisk Module.

Why are you using dolby and viper? I was told a while back forgot where or by who ... Not to use them together.

Anyone managed to get their pixel 4 xl running the v4a? I've tried many methods but with no avail. Anyone can shed some light?

Tbh, it's very finicky and works when it wants to.

Try turning off the audio modification module, reboot, then open V4A and install the driver, then reinstall the audio modification module and reboot again. Also, enable legacy mode in the V4A settings.

I'm about to do a fresh flash now, going to try an older version of V4A though. New one only works for me in legacy and gets stuck in bluetooth mode even when I'm no longer connected to bluetooth.

Can you let me know your outcome after you try it?

So, going to do more bluetooth testing tomorrow at work, but I think it's working correctly right now. It's not getting stuck on my headphones, car, or speaker. It's respecting each device and swapping to a new profile for V4A.

1. Install V4A module
2. Open V4A and grant root
3. Install Audio Modification Library module
4. Open V4A and install the module(it'll reboot)
5. Uninstall or uncheck the AML module and reboot
6. Open V4A and install the driver(it'll reboot)
7. Open V4A and put it in legacy mode, then check if it's processing

I left it at this step and uninstalled AML and V4A just works from there. I have Musicfx disabled as well, and V4A not being optimized in battery settings.

Thanks bro! Your method is working! Really happy to have V4A working on my pixel 4 XL!

Got it working on DP3 and now A12 beta 1 using similar actions to above. Thanks for that! The sound system in my new car isn't as good as the Bose in my last. Definitely needed it to sound better.

However, it doesn't work with Android auto? It's wired so I'm not even sure if it would?

I don't have an Android Auto enabled car, but if it's not processing, try force stopping V4A and reopening it. It might start processing then. You could also try toggling legacy mode to see if there's any change in the audio.

Also, it's amazing how much better it can make your car sound, I can't do without it.

Which module are you using for viper? Every time I try on Android 12 it says it can't connect to internet when I try to install in magisk.

Right? My Pathfinder has a Bose system which sounded awesome, but with V4A it was really good! I gave it to my wife and bought an Audi, and for a luxury car, the sound system is fairly disappointing.. I can't afford the Bang and Olufson option lol.

Anyway, I'll give it a shot. I'm guessing it would use the headphones setting in V4A if there is one that's not Bluetooth. I don't remember seeing one though.

Give it another shot. I just installed the latest module version earlier today.

Also, are you using any adblockers? You could try disabling those.

Thanks, got it working on Pixel 4XL A12B2 stock rooted. Use Version 2.7.2.1, downloaded separately (the online module on magisk fail to download). Then installs audio modification library v4 on magisk. Works perfectly right away.
