You can root and use v4a, there's no reason (to my knowledge) it wouldn't work if you set SELinux to permissive

Have you messed with the audio settings in DSP manager? i'd say have a look in DSP manager and see if all setting are at default. A chance that the older rom you came from may have had some sort of audio tweak built into it. Also, i think Pimpmyrom has some audio features built into it to increase incall volume levels and clarity and bere in mind that samsung roms had the little incall audio boost button when answer/calling.
Thanks for the help but Pimpmyrom doesnt work, I can t download tweeks assets and dsp are at default.

Increase volume

As our zenfone 2 are realy good. they lack strengh of volume.
I have found this thread about others zenfone. Can a master take a look. And adjust it to our phones.

Thank you.
yes, how????
I don't have any problem with volume of speaker but earphone volume seems a bit low when using poweramp
Yeah, I was wondering how to increase the volume even more, especially so that I don't miss important calls or texts.
the volume is lowest ever made on smartphones! any tweaks??

Viper does nothing for volume
The other day I discovered that I can change the headphone and speaker gain on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S tablet by editing /system/etc/default_gain.conf. This worked on Lollipop and KitKat.

You need root, install es file explorer, enable root mode, mount /system rw from ES, then edit that file with ES file editor, and reboot. Then if you don't need root anymore, you can mount /system back ro, disable root mode, and do full unroot from supersu settings. I have no idea if the same works on other devices, but you can try.
I don't have any problem with the volume quantity but the quality.... Noise gets distorted above 80% .. Ringtones,mxplayer,music in every thing.
I owned 2 Z00A models both of them had the same problem.
Even tried other custom roms.... That also didn't do anything.
Do anyone else face this issue ?

It is not possible that some of you say that you have no issue with the sound volume . me and my friend just bought two zen2's and both of us had other phones before and we were veeerry surprised when we heard the super low voltage on zens .
Huggge difference compared to g3,huwawei mate and htc 8.
There was this tweak for g3 to edit mixer_path.XML and the volume gained like 50% loudness that was incredible. Is there any way to do the same with zen2?

I would beg to differ. I can't remember which settings I tweaked, but here's a guide for the older version of Viper4Android:
http://freaktab.com/forum/tablet-su...-louder-on-android-devices-viper4android-root
Should be along a similar path.
Alsa Mixer is the solution, but root is reqiured. Just install Alsa from play store and modify RX1 Digital to RX7 Digital.
Alsamixer isn't working for me. I get "cannot link executable: cannot load library libasound.so

LG G4 hardware limiting the earphones volume!

I tried many sound mods like V4A, Dolby Atmos, Xtrememusic....but none increase really the 3.5mm output volume.
You can get more loudness thanks to V4A+Dolby but still you feel there are 20 even 30% missing volume.
Usually with V4A I boost the db in the end from 0 (normal) to +6db and playback gain control to the max on an HTC it used to boost the volume about +30% which was enormous (never used in real life only for testing), but on the G4 and whatever the kernel I used, these +30% are only there at low to mid volume steps (G4's stock volume steps), once you are at step 7 over 10 it will have the exact same volume as 10 over 10, meaning no gain at all. It will just use the max stock volume on lower volume steps :crying:
It looks like the G4's hardware or snapdragon is limiting the max 3.5mm volume.
I tested with my Sony SBH50 BT and HTC CAR Stereoclip BT modules and the volume gain is about 20% over the max volume (meaning 120%) so V4A and other mods can bypass the max volume on a connected BT from the G4 but not the G4's own 3.5mm output
Do you know any ways to bypass this limitation?
I tried Jetaudio and other apps using Gain option but the sound is bad once +1db over normal

Yep this horror .Bad point for g4.
On G3 exixst one good app but not working on G4 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.laransoft.volumeG3
Only tiny solution:Flash faux sound supported kernel and install faux app.This app help raise vol minimal.
Sorry for my bad english.

In just tried the Fauxsound as my kernel is Superex, and yes it's better than V4A, at least we clearly gain volume with it, I set it at +2 or +3db because more than that the sound quality is deteriorating.
I even disabled V4A as it was doing some parasites once Fauxsound is boosted.
So I think I can say no for a Fiio E6, I wanted this small boost for the incoming ski days

Yes .No perfect solution yet.I think software restriction.Need professional dev. help!
Wow I found my old good Cowon J3, the volume is way louder than G4, it will be my sports music device instead of G4, the only thing is that BT is only 2.0 so I will only used with wired earphones, and if someone calls me on the G4 I won't know

I really don't understand all your doubts about VA4 and volume sound...
I've installed in several phones and with a good profile effect, the sound is fantastic and I only can listen to music with the volume at 25/30%.
If kernel support audio you also increase sound loundeness wit faux app or simple kernel teak tool like kernel adiutor, sypnase or trickster.

Only Faux app is working with actual G4 kernels.
I tried the new Beats port http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-htc-beats-audio-beats-xperience-t3281603 and it's pretty good, at last it gives some warmth to the bass
I am on genysis 3.5 with the superxe kernel and v4a definitely works. I would suggest looking at the driver status in v4a and verify that it is set up properly.
If you try v4a again, you might be interested in the convolver Dolby pro logic 2 IRS profile. I think that would give you the volume boost you are looking for.

False.
Following the exact tutorial I posted there is a *very* real difference in max volume when editing the mixer paths. I've repeated it many times on my 5.1 H812 from stock.
The unfortunate problem is the distortion that comes with upping it too much, so the gain is noticeable but you're not able to boost it too high. It's very limited by the hardware. My S3 still sounds a lot better, and it goes louder... bah.

(I found this thread because I was looking for anyone else who may be experimenting, as I'm really not satisfied with the audio output.)

Boy, I sure wish this were an option for the H811 variant. I can't find any kernel that supports fauxsound. This low gain output kills me. I used to have a V10 with the same chipset and that thing would go incredibly loud. This is so disappointing.

more volume??????

i have pixel 2 xl how i do more volume in root files more louder???

For me the best settings are these:
Ainur sauron;
Dolby Digital plus (music with all the bars at max);
Aml.
That's all.

@pgravili: You should be installing the Audio Compatibility Patch as well, otherwise streaming audio services like Pandora or Spotify will not use Viper4Android or Dolby in processing their streams.

It's not necessary if you use Ainur Sauron. It has all you need in order to make to work on every app.

Does AS also increase system volume for SMS and phone calls?? I use D Dolby + V4A which definitely cranks it out for music and YouTube, but system volume is still too low. Used to be great before 9.0 hit. I know there's a way by editing the .xml files, but dang, there are a lot of them! :fingers-crossed:

Ainur Sauron doesn't increase volume. It works only on quality audio. To increase system volume you only have to turn up bars in Dolby eq.

Not really. You could go to vendor/etc/audio_effects xml and edit those according to Zack, one of the V4A developers. Problem is, which ones do you edit??

Viper4Android alternative

My rooting days are over, I'm looking for a Viper4Android alternative
Unfortunately there is no alternative for v4a. I'm also searching last two years but there is really no alternative. Either rooting or no v4a, that's simple for understanding!

A great alternative to Viper for non-rooted devices is using Neutron Music Player.
With proper configuration it can sound really good. Moreover, it has native support for hi-res audio. Viper's main disadvantage is it down/up samples to 48Khz and limits the bit depth to 16 bit. The S20 family of devices have powerful DACs capable of 384Khz/32 Bit audio so if you have hi-res audio files it would work well. The only disadvantage to using Neutron is its learning curve. It's not as user-friendly as Viper but can sound about as good with the right setup.
A good equaliser that does boost the sound is Mega equaliser , but be carefull as you could blow your speakers with the loudness togle , its free with ads or without ads for $1.49 from inside the app , works perfect on my note 10+ and note 9
Try this

Though the app has not been updated since ages...sounds good.

I use Stellio music player, which have plenty of sound enhancements and is, IMHO, the closest to Viper I used on previous rooted phones.

need help. Viper4Android installed and working via Magisk. As soon as I am on the home screen, it switches off in the background. If I start viper4android it runs again immediately. Now the strange... When I start the browser, for example, viper is running. Music runs in the background. Except on the home screen. When the screen turns off, viper is off again. What could be the reason for this?
