So I've searched& searched and found a few slightly different instructions, mainly from the m8 thread, but with our phones having the beats audio/BoomSound, and all htc's emphasis on the speakers and sound, are there any instructions on Installing Viper4Android on M7 4.4.3 that are different from those on the general installation instructions on the main V4A thread? ANY recommendations on settings/ install would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
I did nothing special. Install app and use in app menu to install driver, then reboot.
I never recommend version settings, as it will change with your headset and personal preference. I do recommend, however, to enable expert options. You can really tweak the DSP to have a plethora of options compared to other Android DSPs.

K, 1 last question, did u edit the build.prop lines that it says to do in the viper thread,or skip it? Just asking because it says"if u can't find the lines, skip this step" ... I can find em, just wondering what doing this actually does...

It disables LPA. Most devices (ours has the option) you cannot manually turn off LPA. When you "install drivers" you will have a pop up to disable LPA which is the build.prop edit

It shouldn't mess with beats. I installed with beats enabled and everything works fine.

........omg........ How have I gone this long without this.... Tested on quite a few different players n it's amazing. What music player do u run? I run poweramp but I read the only way power amp is supported is through normal mode, but I want beats to stay enabled (which requires compatible mode) ....... Am I basically stuck having to pick between beats / or power amp? Or is there any workarounds?

Odd... I am on ViperOne 7.0.1 Rom with V4A on normal and notice a big difference between beats on and off, meaning normal mode works for me with beats on.
Sent from my HTC6500LVWBLU using XDA Free mobile app
Disabling LPA is what allows beats to continue to work with V4A enabled. Power amp has its own eq which might be why it doesn't work properly with all modes of V4A.

I know that the Samsung Music Player app uses an equalizer to create the 5.1 ch effect. Can anyone tell me the levels that the equalizer is set at to make it like that?

I dint think it is changed by the equalizer.
Im sure it is. When you turn the option on and go to chanfe tge equalizer, the music goes back to non 5.1 as tge equalizer must reset itself for you.

Volume rocker music change thing isn't available on it from what I know. You can use Viper sound, but enable compatability mode and disable beats audio. The earphone thing should work though.

Beats audio is embedded into the system, you can't disable it from what I know unless you use the notifcation thing (If you froze that I'd unfreeze it). Disable it with the notification, and enable compatability mode through the menu on V4A.
I use nex music in any other Rom double click on earphone works but on sense when I click twice call to the last number started dialling :/ any way to stop this ??

Hi,
Is there any way to enable volume adjustment when the phone is locked? (using volume keys on the phone or on a headset)
When I was using CM on my old Nexus S I was able to do this.
I'm on Wicked v7 ROM, but I think this was the same also on stock.
Thanks
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I actually want the opposite to happen. I don't want someone being able to mute my phone without me knowing. Running BeanStalk
I'm talking about the media volume actually. When I'm listening to music I would like to be able to raise or lower the volume without unlocking the phone.

You should be able to. I'm on Wicked v7 and can raise/lower volume when screen shut off and phone is lock.
Either with the buttons on the phone or headphones.
You could even skip to next or previous track with settings in Wicked Control.
Is there any setting to enable this?
I know about track control, but I'm more interested in volume.

Can't find this option, where is it?
I am fully stocked.
When the phone is locked, to turn down the volume I just use the volume buttons, they work just fine.

I'm having exactly the same problem. I've gone in and disabled the loud volume warning in Xposed AND Wanam, and it isn't helping.
I'm wondering if those of us having difficulties chose something when installing with Aroma that was different from the people having no issues. Is there something we could have done differently on install? I'm starting to get really frustrated. 90% of what I use my phone for is music.
Also, are the other people having problems using the Music2sD feature from Xposed? Could that be creating an issue somewhere?
Note: When the screen is off, you cannot adjust the volume continuously by long holding the button. You have to press it multiple times separately to step thru the volume levels! It's a supposed safety measure so you dont blast it while trying to pull the phone out, which happened to me alot on my old phone. Maybe it works for some of you but u didn't notice because you only got +1 step?

I don't think it has anything to do with Xposed, since the issue was there even before I installed it. (I only installed it to try to SOLVE the issue)

Being a bit of an audiophile, I find it hard to use this phone on anything but a Sense/GPE ROM due to lack of the "Beats" EQ (Beats sounds more direct while everything else is too open). Would it be possible to port whatever libraries said EQ needs to an AOSP ROM? Awesomebeats and similar things don't seem to work on 4.3

That's one of the primary reasons why I'm on a gpe instead of other AOSP Roms. I hope it could be an option or something, cause frankly the speakers sound like crap without it :/

Most audio guys here (including me) hate beats. So it's funny seeing someone trying to get it back.
I prefer AOSP with a very slight PowerAmp EQ.

Too open as in compression. Sound seems to "echo" around the speaker instead of being directed like it does with the beats EQ.

You'll see the option buried in sounds. Of course I'm sure you already know you can't disable it. Only when headphones are plugged in you can.

Out of curiosity, if one were to enable the equalizer in Google Play Music app, does it conflict with BoomSound? Every time I enable the former, the sound changes pretty dramatically, even when I leave the EQ set to FLAT.
