sorry for my mistake..
i have reported the thread..hope it will be moved soon.
Hi ! what's the difference between the two versions ? Which seems to be working better for you ?
Xhifi is for audio clarity and fx is for bass and sound effect enhancement.
Also I flashed it and heard the music for whole week but it is not better than acid audio with noozoxide.

So i am using Viper4Android right now, it has so many settings that finding *that* effect might need a bit of trial and error.. here is something that works for me, Keep in mind that this is basically moderately Bass enhanced for Dub/Chillstep probably House/Electro Music...basically Club music xD
Changes in FX ->
Powered On
Playback Gain Control Disabled (enabled this option in HiFX and disabled it here)
Firequalizer disabled (using this equalizer in HiFX)
Convolver -> Get the pack and using SPL GoldMIKE Impulse.IRS
Then nothing changed till,
Dynamic System -> Common Earphone(v2) Dynamic Bass (3 Percent)
Cure Tech+ ENABlED (Slight)
Gain -> up to you (6db already enabled for me via STweaks so i didn't use any here)
------
Changes in HiFX->
Powered ON (Of course)
Playback Gain Control -> Slight Enabled. Disabled in FX
Audio Reconstruct Enabled -> HiClarity 70 ; Lo Contour 45 (up to your preference really )
and the Equalizer totally up to you, I use a S shape like seen in the attached picture
As for hardware, Im using the stock Samsung headphones with the smallest earbuds (lost the medium sized ones, which gave better bass output, thus you might have to tweak this a little bit for your phone..)
This improve the sound but eats battery faster than playing nfs most wanted with max brightness wifi and bluetooth on
Send from my SGS2 I9100 with HassanROM and latest DorimanX 8.xx kernel

★NeatROM★ Mods ********************* Battery Tips
Found this on this thread below and I have to say after trying every music mod out there that this is one step ahead of everybody else. Check it out here. I have been listening to it for half a day now and it's amazing. It has so many sound options that it takes awhile to figure them out. But if you are a music freak like me once you listen to it you will say it's definitely worth the time to figure it all out. After checking the thread out if anybody is confused about how to install the apk's and files I will explain it the easiest way can for you. Thanks and enjoy!!!

Default F.A.Q - Frequently Asked Questions (Up to date)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Updated 5/8/2013
Since Android 4.1, Google started to close down Android whole system audio effect.
"The main reason is there's many problem we can't fix, therefore we can only apologize to audio effect developers. In future, it will be fixed and whole system audio effect will be back." - GOOGLE
Therefore in certain players certain roms, V4A will not work.
- Will it work on my device?
A: V4A works on almost every ROOTED android devices. Refer requirements in OP.
- How to install?
A: Using the In-App installation, make sure you have busybox installed, first-run the app and follow through the installation dialogues.
- Which to install? FX or XHiFi or Both?
A: FX has many audio effects, where as XHiFi restores audio quality. If you like many effects(reverb, bass, surround) then choose FX, if you like clear audio/vocal and you have a good headset, choose XHiFi. You can also install both, more CPU usage, that's all.
- Why ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi always FC?
A: Uninstall and Reinstall V4A using NEW In-App Installation. This is due to driver not installed properly.
- Why ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi creates unexpected effects and different from other users?
A: Clear ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi data. If persist, disable third-party sound mods such as Noozxoide, Bass Booster etc)
- Third-party players such as Poweramp and TTPOD no effect?
A: Open V4A app and switch to FX Compatible Mode. (Driver status will show processing=No, but its working.)
- ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi doesnt run after bootup?
A: Check anti-virus or startup manager app whether V4A was disabled in startup list.
- V4A FX/XHiFi effect gone after using data-killer?
A: Please add ViPER4Android FX/XHiFi to data-killer app white list or exception.
- 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)
- 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
- V4A XHiFi effects gone after reaching certain volume? (~70%)
A: This is due to Sony Xperia hearing protection library. Backup and Delete /system/lib/soundfx/libhearingprotection.so
- How to use FIR-Equalizer?
A: See "How to use FIR-Equalizer" guide in XDA Original post.
- Why there's no change in sound quality after installing V4A?
A1: Choose V4A in Sound Settings > Music Effects. (Driver status will show processing=Yes)
A2: Open V4A app and switch to FX Compatible Mode. (Driver status will show processing=No, but its working.)
- 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.
- Why music spoilt 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 (such as smartass) or created own CPU profile.
Switch CPU governor to ondemand or interactive, to increase CPU speed.
- Can I still install V4A if I already using other sound mods?
A: Yes, after installation, open V4A app and switch to FX Compatible Mode.
- Why phone auto-reboot after I plugin headset? Normally for HTC phones.
A: Uninstall and Reinstall V4A using NEW In-App Installation.
- In-call volume reduced?
A: Uninstall and Reinstall V4A using NEW In-App Installation. If persist, its caused by other sound mod because V4A will not affect call volume.
- What if my phone/tablet cannot detect headset plugin?
A: In ViPER4Android app press menu, choose lock effect mode and choose headset, then adjust settings.
- I dont know my phone is which CPU type?
A:
Qualcomm CPU, freq higher than 800MHz, choose ARMV5TE, freq higher than 800MHz(including dual/quad core)choose A8.
Samsung CPU, single core choose A8, dual/quad core choose A9.
Huawei HiSilicon CPU, single-core choose A8, dual/quad core choose A9.
Other CPU, single-core choose A8, dual/quad core choose A9.
- Driver status shows version 0.0.0.0 even after rebooting?
A: Due to wrong driver used, try lower level drivers. Eg: A9 change to A8; A8 change to Tegra2.
- Driver status shows "Enabled: No, Processing: No", but i already turn on effects and playing music?
A:In FX Compatible Mode, driver status will always show No, but its working.
In Normal Mode, its due to reason at the starting of this post.
- Why no effect in MIUI player?
A: Open V4A app and switch to FX Compatible Mode. or Turn off MIUI default equalizer.
- 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.
- 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.
About compatibility problem:
With the NEW In-App Installation, V4A will be installed into your system without problem. All system-provided sound effects will not be removed or overwritten.
V4A Audio E
Default FX & XHiFi Settings Explained & Recommended Value
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The latest version: FX v2.2.0.7, XHiFi v2.1.0.0
[FX Settings]
V4A FX version mainly for rendering audio effects, by controlling various parameters to achieve the purpose of audio effect adjustment.
1. Master Power. This option defines whether to enable V4A headset sound effects, also known as main switch.
2. Playback Gain Control. It is mainly used to dynamically control the audio volume, to amplify or to attenuate.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Select Effect Strength. Effect Strength is the speed of amplification or attenuation, the stronger the faster the speed and the higher the final volume, the weaker the slower the speed, the closer to the original volume. Recommended medium.
(3) Max Gain. When the volume of the note is too small, in order to uplevel the sound, there may be very large magnification. The higher the value, the louder the volume. But too large will also amplify the noise within the song. Recommended 4 times.
(4) Max Output. This value defines the maximum volume of the PlaybackAGC sound in decibel value, the greater the value the greater the volume, 0 db is the maximum. In order to make the sound softer recommended -1.9 dB.
3. FIR Equalizer. 511-order 10 bands FIR linear equalizer.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Select Preset. Here you can select default equalizer presets. When choosing custom, it will follow the user-defined lines drawn.
(3) Linear Equalizer graphic. Will pop up when you touch the graphic equalizer, you can manually adjust the levels of amplification and attenuation of the 10 bands.
4. Convolver
When an impulse response(IR) sample is loaded, music will show the same characteristics of the loaded sample, for example equalizer, surround, reverberation, tube etc.
Make sure SD Card has /ViPER4Android/Kernel/ folder, IR samples will be located there. If folder not exists, you can download latest V4A FX and extract SDCard_V4A.zip.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Impulse Response. Here you can select and load IR Samples inside /ViPER4Android/Kernel/ folder.
5. Field Surround. It is mainly used to create sound field surround effects. The sound field can be understood as mono field or stereo field.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Select Field Surround Strength. This value defines the strength of the field surround effects. The stronger, the stereo effect will be more obvious, the sound will come from left and right sides. Recommended medium.
(3) Select Mid Image Strength. This value defines the central vocal intensity. More strongman sound more clear, the weaker the more ethereal sound.
6. Reverberation. It uses mathematical methods to simulate the environmental feeling sensation. Example a song can be felt playing inside the auditorium, living room, bathroom, and so on.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Room Size. This value defines the virtual environment area size. The larger the value, the sound is wider and more echoes.
(3) Sound Field. This value defines the width of the room above, in meters. Assumed that the above room size is 100 square meters, here to set a width of 14 meters, then the length of the room will be 7.14 m.
Therefore, the room size and width defines the aspect ratio of the virtual environment.
The larger the value, the sound coming from both sides will felt more obvious.
(4) Damping Factor. This value defines the humidity of air in the above virtual environment, the moisture vapor in the air will easily absorb the echoes.
So the bigger this value, the less echoes heard.
(5) Wet Signal. This value defines the volume of the simulated environment effect.
(6) Dry Signal. This value defines the volume of the original sound.
For environments with low air humidity such as living room, auditorium and other indoor environment, you can use room size and sound field to define the area of the virtual environment, water vapor content values from 0 to 20, the reverb signal values 20 to 50, the proportion of the original signal to take value of about 50.
For environments with high air humidity such as bathroom and other indoor environment that contains a lot of moisture, you can use room size and sound field to define the area of the virtual environment, water vapor content values of 50 to 100, the reverb signal values 40 to 80, the proportion of the original signal value of about 50.
7. Dynamic System. It handles the dynamic range of the sound. In other words the bass, treble, and limiting.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Select Listening Device. This value defines the headset type connected to the audio jack. If you cannot get the right device for good bass tone, then select Common earphone. Common earphone is a common choice. Recommend Common earphone.
(3) Select Dynamic Bass. This value defines the average dynamic bass, the greater the stronger bass. Recommend 33%.
(4) Tube Simulator(6N1J). This option defines whether to enable tube simulator effect. V4A tube simulator uses a simplified mathematical simulation of tube effect.
If turned on, will greatly reduce high-frequency odd harmonic distortions, while increases even-order harmonic distortions of tube simulator.
8. Master Gate(Limiter). This option is V4A output limiter, its used to prevent overloud clipping distortion.
(1) Ouput Gain. This value defines the main output volume. Its something like a volume control.
(2) Limit Threshold. This value defines the limits of waveform amplitude by the limitor, 0 dB is the maximum value.
The smaller the value, the easier to experience audio frequency compression(the smaller the volume), will lose sound details, but can effectively control the final output volume. Recommend 0 db.
1. Master Power. This option defines whether to enable V4A speaker sound effects, also known as main switch
2. FIR Equalizer. Same as headset equalizer.
3. Convolver. Same as headset convolver.
4. Reverberation. Same as headset reverberation
5. Extra Loud. eXtra-Loud further amplifies the sound, but is controlled to protect the speaker, will not overload.
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Select Effect Strength. Effect Strength is the speed of amplification or attenuation, the stronger the faster the speed and the higher the final volume, the weaker the slower the speed, the closer to the original volume. Recommended medium.
(3) Max Gain. When the volume of the note is too small, in order to uplevel the sound, there may be very large magnification. The higher the value, the louder the volume. Recommend infinity.
(4) Max Output. This value defines the maximum volume of the EL sound in decibel value, the greater the value the greater the volume, 0 db is the maximum. Recommend 0db.
6. Master Gate(Limiter). Same as headset limiter.
V4A XHiFi version mainly for restoring audio quality and details.
1. Master Power. This option defines whether to enable V4A headset/bluetooth sound effects, also known as main switch.
2. Playback Gain Control. Same as FX version's PlaybackAGC.
3. FIR Equalizer. 2047-order 10 bands, quality much better than FX version. Method of adjusting same as FX version.
4. Audio Reconstruction. It is XHiFi's core feature, it does the detailing and treble restoring for lossy mp3 audio files. (Currently in adjustment phase, different device may have different experience.)
(1) Enable checkbox. Whether the effect is enabled.
(2) Hi Clarity. This value defines the detailing and treble restoration percentage, the larger the value, the more details of the sound and stronger treble.
For low-end/common earphones, this is not recommended as you may experience high frequency shrills.
For better earphones such as Monster,Philips,Zombie,Sennheiser, recommended value = 30 ~ 50.
For high-end headphones, value depands on headphone cable length. Start with value = 40, value +10 for every 80cm cable length.
For preamp/amp connect to phone. Start with value = 60, value +10 for every 80cm cable length.
For tube amplifier, directly use value = 100.
(3) Lo Contour. The value defines the percentage of bass contour reconstruction over total band. The larger the value, the stronger the bass, but midrange and details will slightly lost.
For earphones recommend value = 50 ~ 70.
For headphones recommend value = 20 ~ 30.
5. Master Gate(Limiter). This option is V4A output limiter, its used to prevent overloud clipping distortion.
(1) Ouput Gain. This value defines the main output volume. Its something like a volume control.
(2) Limit Threshold. This value defines the limits of waveform amplitude by the limitor, 0 dB is the maximum value.
The smaller the value, the easier to experience audio frequency compression(the smaller the volume), will lose sound details, but can effectively control the final output volume. Recommend 0 db.
Default FIR Equalizer Guide
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So how do we adjust the FIR Equalizer?
Before this, V4A use IIR Equalizer, you have to know how much to adjust for each frequency band. But now using FIR Equalizer, you just have to know which frequency band to adjust.
So, determine your desired frequency band and move the adjustment bar to maximum or minimum.
Don't believe me? Try move all frequency bands to maximum and you will notice the high,medium and low frequency sounds strengthen, not just the volume being amplified.
That is the magic of the FIR Equalizer!
Due to FIR equalizer's innate qualities, there's no need of auto level control or gain compensation.
Of course, in V4A future updates, creator will extend the maximum gain value beyond +9 so that the maximum gain effect will be clearer and more obvious.

It has far more options than ac!d, awesome beats, kingbeatz, beats audio, etc. This is more in depth and better put together. Just my opinion though you'd have to check it out yourself.

Try hitting menu key and click on fx compatibility option select normal then you should notice a difference when you tinker around with the settings. You also need to enable it in sound settings- music fx. It is also best to convert it to a system app so that process killers don't terminate it.

TIP #1:
If your G2 stock earbuds fit your ear canals really well, see if they fit on your other earphones!
I tried these G2 ear buds on my ie-80 in-ears and i can honestly say they give the best seal i have had in 7 months since getting these earphones!
The G2 buds have an abnormally large hole diameter which allows alot more high/mid range through than my previous sets. Stoked!
TIP #2:
Clean your in-ear headphones regularly, scotch tape works great!
Pull off the earbuds and carefully dab (do not rub) each the earphone housing speaker grills repeatedly with sticky part of the scotch tape to remove any wax/dirt buildup.
Repeat this once every 1 - 2 weeks to ensure longer life/good sound of your earphones.
If possible store your in-ears in a clean container/sealed carry pouch so they do not collect dust/lint/dirt from your pockets.
Thanks for the mod. Tested a FLAC song with stock music player on speakers. Max volume and no distortion.

Great to hear!
On a note of personal note, i had viper4android installed on my LG G2 but with these modifications,
i ended up uninstalling it as i was primarily using it for volume boost purposes as opposed to signal shaping/eq-ing.
I also found that viper4android would work randomly with some files but not others.
IMO Volume boosting should work consistently at all times, across the board.
From the purist/consistency train of thought this volume mod will give you consistent volume boosting and more power to your headphones (fuller sound) without altering/degrading the already superb audio signal, or adding digital noise.
That being said, viper4android is a great app for shaping the sound signature, which is what it is primarily designed for.
For me, "the closer to the original source, the better"
Much improved sound. Thanks.

Disclaimer:
DO NOT USE additional volume boosting tweaks/applications with this MOD.
Doing so will potentially make the signal too hot and could potentially lead to hearing damage/loss/equipment failure.
(Make sure you disable viper4android Max loudness signal boost if you have it installed!!).
This is an external Speaker and Headphone Volume level modification.
It is what I feel "should have been" the stock "happy medium" audio levels for the LG G2.
The DAC audio quality coming from the LG G2 is excellent.
This modification brings the listening sweet spot down to 50% volume level instead of the 80-90% volume range at stock.
Stock levels did not push test headphones as well.
Benefits:
- Removes the need for 3rd party audio VOLUME BOOST apps
- Does not alter DAC raw audio signal quality
- Provides optimized signal drive for higher ohm headphones
- Improved audio fullness
- Improved low end at optimal listening levels
This MOD works with:
All LG G2 Carriers
This Mod Affects:
- External Speaker Volume (boosted to optimal levels)
- Headphones Volume for all audio Bit-rates (boosted to optimal levels)
Requirements:
- Phone must be Rooted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887
- Root Browser (or similar File Explorer with system access)
- Modded "snd_soc_msm_Taiko" file (see instructions for link)
Test Media Players:
- LG G2 Stock Audio Player (much lower digital noise on track pause compared to Neutron)
- Neutron Media Player
Test headphones:
- Sennheiser ie-80 (16 ohms)
- Audio Technica (38 ohms)
- Beyerdynamic DT-770 (80 ohms)
Test Audio Sources:
- Multiple Music Styles (808 hiphop, trance, reggae, jazz, etc) in multiple bit-rates from 320kbps mp3 to 24-bit/192KHz Flac.
Parallel Testing with:
- Stock IPhone 4s
Instructions:
On your phone:
1. Use Root Browser (or similar File Explorer) to navigate to: /system/etc/snd_soc_msm
2. Locate the file called: "snd_soc_msm_Taiko"
3. Copy this file to your storage as a backup in case you decide to revert back to stock.
4. Download the "snd_soc_msm_Taiko" file to your phone: http://www44.zippyshare.com/v/67179492/file.html
5. Once complete, paste the downloaded "snd_soc_msm_Taiko" file into: /system/etc/snd_soc_msm
Choose yes to overwrite the existing file.
6. Restart your phone, and test external speaker and headphones with starting with volume at 0%
7. If this improved your G2 audio, say thanks, and enjoy your music!

Permissions should not make a difference in this case, however you can set them to rw~r~~r~~ for the file as shook mentioned using root explorer.
Mine are currently set to rw~rw~r~~ and there is no difference in performance.

Really.
Well not giving thanks where its due, is even more lame, not to mention it is Thanksgiving today after all..
1. For what its worth i stumbled on this file in my G2 looking through sys etc files as a result of modding my note 2 last year in similar fashion, when i was looking for volume boosting without 3rd party apps at the time.
2. I have spent time testing to ensure i get the levels right on a fair range of equipment, and i feel others should be entitled the chance to benefit from this as well.
3. That thread that i ended up finding (and linking out of courtesy regardless) is pretty convoluted and a bit of a mess, labelled ATT (i am on Bell and this is a universal fix, not just ATT), and realistically only addresses speaker volume.
4. I have provided a working tested version of the file that G2 owners can use if they choose; not everyone is comfortable/has time/patience to edit/test settings in order to enjoy the untapped potential their phones have to offer.
5. I was in actuality not soliciting (seeing as we are NOT selling anything here), but making a factual observation through my thanks post, and the same applies to all positive dev/mod work.
You're welcome.
thanks, audio seems improved and much higher.
maybe a bit too high.. I can't set volume up to middle.

The version i posted on this thread works fine with no issues.
I have tested the scenarios detailed in your post using 2 different cell phone lines, calling my g2 from another cell, and vice versa.
Both with speaker mode enabled/disabled, and with/without headphones.
Mic works fine in both cases for me, no issues here on my Bell version G2.
I do not currently have a pair of headphones with microphone built in to test that format though, if anyone else can test that would be great.
Please clarify carrier, whether phone is stock or not,whether has he done any file edits after the fact, etc.

I think that SRS enhancement makes music sound better, much better than DSP or Beats, at least in my old HTC Desire HD, i miss such a great SRS, but I need power, so i bought OG Could someone port this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2353148 ?

Is Viper4Android compatible with OG? I downloaded zip pack from vipersaudio.com , when i was trying to flash it (i use Philz Touch Recovery , CWM based) , i got "installation aborted" message. Tell me, what i should do, because I'am very curious, i hope that mod mentioned by you is not so crappy as Noozxoide (it had only compessor working, any other fx didn't gave me any difference on very good headphones)
Yes it's. Others users have installed it. Search here in XDA the apk file.

If you get a zip (probably you got it but don't install trough cwm), unzip and install as a normal apk and follow instructions,

Oh, thank you Viper4Android provides really good sound, it has great benefits (but some drawbacks too).
I haven't tried Convolver yet, because i did'nt downloaded plugins yet. .
My feelings are that:
-Bass is not so powerful as I wanted, but it's quite natural
-Higher freqs are good, i think they are better than using DSP Manager
-I like so much Haas Surroround effect, but it lowers bass
-Other Surroround effects are just bad as DSP Manager Virtual Surroround effect.
-In my opinion FIREqualizer is the same as in DSP Manager
But there are the main disadvantages:
-Even if the bass is so low (i mean deep), it's distorted a bit, when there's a bit more of bass. SRS provides ultra low freq, pumping bass without any distortion.
-Midtones and sound dynamics, there's no "WOW" effect, there's no depth they are a bit flat I remember well how SRS made midtones were so intense, like SRS could auto-fit to every other song/tracks.
Your suggestion helped me much,anyway if someone will port SRS to our phones, i'll try this "beauty"
Old love will not be forgotten:laugh:

So...here you can have some problems because:
-stock player (you mean LG's player?), problably it won't work, you have to use any music player which support external equalizer (try Google Music Player, or Apollo).
-if you you Superuser instead SuperSu, you can have problem with V4A
-if you have any other "Equalizer app" like DSP Manager or Awesome BEATS, or AC!D or Noozxoide, you should delete them and restart the device, or just run V4A, go to V4A's Settings and try safe/compability mode, and restart of course
I not am sure, will it be working on stock, but it's working on CM based roms, you can try modded stock roms like SAVVY or Epsilon

- Yes I mean stock LG music player (Tried poweramp but no success again)
- I have superSu.
- I dont have any other equlazer app.
- I also think that it is because of stock launcher.
The last thing I havent tried yet is the Apollo music app.
And could you also please tell me where are those drivers are installled?
After I install V4A and its drivers, I do not see any driver folder in my folders.
thanks again,

Hello,
The problem is that sometime it is working and sometime not. I have stock and shuttle player. I have got it to work on stock as on shuttle, but not every time. You can check by selecting driver status in Vfx (for headset or phone speaker) if it is enabled as well if it is working.
When it work, its great.
I am also rooted and on stock rom.

I think the problem is stock rom...maybe it doesn't support external eq's. Just try stock modded like Epsilon or SAVVY. Don't worry, you can backup your app data (savegames, and various in-app settings) by using Titanium Backup. V4A is working for sure in any CM based rom. So I recommend you flashing Vanir, PAC-Man or ThinkingBrigde.
any problems that can be (if you really want to stay on your current rom):
-when you launch V4A app first time, does it asks you for SuperUser/root permission? It must asking for root permisions, without this, it won't work
-how did you installed V4A? flashing it from .zip file is not the best idea, my suggestion is downloading it from Play Store (yep, this one with chineese or japanese chars)
BTW, it was using V4A but I'm not so pleased from using it. When I found my fav presets for some songs, they were sounded (sorry 4 my english) much better, i felt they are wider in sound, but when I listened other songs, which they was surroround effects (stereo effects-yep, I am talking about electronic dance music) without modifying sound, with the same presets, all the effect was worse than without V4A. Generally, some some sound better, some worse using it. Furthermore V4A, distortes bass a bit too much, so instead of ultra loooow and clear bass, we have sth nice but distorted , even with using limiter. It's only my opinion, but trust me I am almost audiophile (lol) . I think the genius of SRS WOW HD (the same as in Desire HD) is that, it's changes own presets dynamically, depending of songs (omg, what a shame that SRS is ported for Optimus L7 but not our OG ).
You can try AC!D Sound Mod too, it should be working using stock rom, but I'm not sure if it's fully working, it has some partial bugs and missing some features. The most universal Equalizer at this moment is DSP Manager

If you are using ViPER4Android please try this:
Ultimate Music Effects Mods and Settings
This is a tutorial on using audio mods and settings to achieve maximum sound quality from the devices you are using. Any decent pair of headphones or earphones are capable of delivering much higher quality sound than they do using default device settings and equalizers, and you'll be surprised how far a little tweaking will take your whole music experience.
Mods You Will Need
The magic is made possible entirely thanks to ViPER's Audio,http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2191223, which you will need to install to use the settings described in this thread. Visit the ViPER's Audio page (linked above) and follow their instructions listed in their thread to get ViPER4Android FX installed on your device.
You will also need DSP Manager for a single setting in this tutorial, I've attached the APK for DSP Manager 2.0
The Settings
Once you have ViPER4Android FX and DSP Manager installed, use the following settings to take your music to a whole new level.
ViPER Settings...
MASTER POWER
Enable: This must of course be enabled to switch on the music effects.
PLAYBACK GAIN CONTROL
Enable: Enable PlaybackAGC
Effect Strength: Moderate
Max Gain: 4x
Max Output: -1.9dB
Leave FIREQUALIZER, CONVOLVER, FIELD SURROUND, DIFFERENTIAL SURROUNND, HEADPHONE SURROUND +, and REVERBERATION disabled.
DYNAMIC SYSTEM
Enable: Enable dynamic system.
Select Listening Device: Set to Common Earphone V2
Select Dynamic Bass: Set to 33%
Tube Simulator: Leave tube simulator disabled
FIDELITY CONTROL
Enable Viper Bass: Enable Viper Bass
Select Bass Mode: Set to 40Hz (I've chosen this because it significantly enhances the bass experience in music, by making the bass more "felt" than heard. This makes bass feel more powerful and realistic, but because it requires a decent set of earphones or headphones to actually work properly. By setting the Bass Boost higher for less powerful speakers, it may be possible to achieve the desired bass effect. If bass seems too weak at 40Hz, feel free to set it to 60Hz or even 100Hz as required. Because 40Hz takes real speaker power to pull off, I've noticed that for most earphones it makes bass crisp and powerful without completely overpowering music.)
Select Bass Boost: 10.0dB (for use with a Bass Mode of 40Hz on most headphones and earphones, but may be adjusted as needed on less powerful speakers)
Enable Viper Clarity: Enable Viper Clarity
Select Clarity Mode: Set to XHiFi (I've found that XHiFi enhances the highs and vocals much more effectively than Natural, and really emphasizes sounds that may not even have been heard before)
Select Clarity: Set to default (This ensures that even though highs and vocals are more prominent, they are not overpowering)
AUDITORY SYSTEM PROTECTION
Enable Cure Tech+: This setting is completely optional. Leaving it unchecked ensures that every single detail of music is still heard, while checking it slightly removes very high highs and protects your hearing.
Select Binaural Level: If you do enable Cure Tech+, I'd recommend at least a Moderate setting to truly benefit from the setting. It doesn't have too much of a negative impact, and after getting used to it, music still sounds amazing.
MASTER GATE (LIMITER)
Output gain: 0dB
Channel Pan- 0.5:0.5
Limit Threshold: 0dB
DSP Manager Settings...
The only thing you need to change in DSP Manager is setting
DYNAMIC RANGE COMPRESSION
Enable: Enable Dynamic Range Compression
Select Effect Strength: Extreme
(This brings all elements of the music to an equal volume, which makes music much more detailed and brings out sounds you never heard before, while keeping any bass or vocals from becoming too powerful)
You can double check all of these settings in the images attached.
Remember to hit the Thanks button if your music has never sounded better

NOTE: Please don't forget to thanks EttyN, here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48232144&postcount=1
You need to change the UI to Expert.
I've not installed DSP Manager at the moment and I've changed only the parameter in bold to 6dB, because the sound was a little bit low...
Edit: I advice to keep DSP Manager, the sound improvement is notable!
Hey guys,
I don't know if this fits in this thread, but you were already speaking about it.
So my question is: How to get Viper4Android flawlessy working on the Optimus G? I have tried it many times and with different versions on the stock rom (rooted of course), but when i got i to work and rebooted the phone it didnt work anymore.
It only worked with Neutron Music Player and then I rebooted the phone and it didnt work!
Please help me
