I had to install SuperSU + busybox to get V4A working on CM11. All is well.

8As we all know, Cyanogenmod is a premier Android ROM. Viper4Android is also a premier audio effect which has recently made it on xda news. However, many users have reported that Viper4Android does not work on recent builds of Cyanogenmod on any hardware.
xda member Metallica has tested the following changes to make recent CM builds work with V4A:
I have tested to revert:
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/51424
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/50362
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/50102
when i revert this, Viper4 will work fine, revert this 3 commit will solve the issue!! I will morning after work commit on CM-Gerrit so every can use this for his build...
EDIT:
If you want revert self: Use following Command in frameworks/av:
git revert 88989c7
git revert 5edd1d0
git revert fcca0f6
thanks to @thcue, he give the right tip
I forwarded this finding to the developer of V4A, @viper520, and he has the following conclusion:
the 3 commits causing the incompatibility enabled the Low Power Audio (LPA) mode of android. This disabled any ability to process systemwide audio effects. A program like V4A will never work with LPA enabled.
Edit: upon further testing, certain devices were found to continue working with V4A with versions of CM including these commits. However the fact remains that many devices do not work and reverting these commits has proven to solve the problem in numerous cases.
Now, I understand that the Cyanogenmod team would be eager to develop new features for CM, and I'm sure that LPA mode will save power on devices when e.g. playing music with the phone sleeping. However, don't you think this should be an option for the user to choose, rather than a fixed choice? Especially seeing as this mode disables all systemwide audio processing functionality, which would disable not only V4A but things like ACID.
I was going to include a poll in this thread but it just doesn't seem possible? I even made a test thread in another forum and replicated the same steps here but I keep getting led to a blank page?
Please reply to this thread and keep this thread on the first page if you support this petition.
