Not working here. always asks to install the driver after reboot.
To get it working all I did was root my phone, installed viper4android.
After opening the app it asked to install the drivers I let it, then rebooted
everything worked just fine.
Viper4Android needs your phone to be on Permissive Kernel.
Working!!! Ty everyone will post a link and how-to install guide in my thread

you probably forgot to set your selinux to permissive. download selinux mode changer here on XDA and the u'll be able to install the driver
Anyone know how to get convolver to work with CM 12.1 nightly on z00A?
Hi, can somebody confirm that Viper4android works without issues on the original rom?, i mean by this that after a reboot the app starts itself, as in my case I have to start the app to get its functionality working on my player
Thanks
is viper4android safe? It asks for a lot of permmisons
yeah viper4android is safe i have been running it since my galaxy s3 and never looked backed best app i have ever come across as far as boosting audio quality.
also guys having problems with not hearing any differance i had the same problem at first then i found a thread in general with a modified audio_policy.config file i had to replace with the original one then v4a worked a charm also kernel has to be permissive too so try it again with the modified audio_policy if you gave up because i nearly did
Not really working for me. I did the se permissive then installed v4a then installed driver and reboot. Now I'm using it mainly for Spotify and it works sometimes but then sometimes it will stop working unless I unplug the headphones and plug back in or sometimes it just stop working at all
Download the viper 4 android guitardedhero bought in my Zenfone max working.
Hello.
after successfully rooting my G4 and installing busybox.. I have also installed V4A. however, after installing the drivers, I can't get them to actually work.. (driver status shows unsupported and abnormal.)
anyone knows if V4A works with the G4? and if so, how did you get it to work?
thanks!

You need to set kernel to permissive. Selinux switcher apps will correct your issue.
I set to permissive installed v4a of viper and used awesome player instead of nu player. Yet changing eq doesnt do anything

TUrn off any EQs that you may have on in your music player.
And if you go into the settings menu > Driver status > What do you see here?
After setting to permissive you should get a different message at the bottom when you access V4A compared to when you didn't have it (If you kept note)
Here is a great guide how to make it work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/to-root-apps-t3165390/post62107040#post62107040
In addition to the above, I had to force enable V4A and switch to FX compatible mode to get Spotify to work. My other apps worked without those changes.
About gave up for months, then it clicked in my mind when i saw a post mention to make sure all other audio apps redirect eq to viper, and if not, change them. Even if you dont use a certain audio player app, change it too.
Problem is, i could not get the lg music app (which i never use) to change the equalizer to viper, it just had it's own default settings, so i ignored it. So i decided to revisit the lg app, and froze the app with link2sd, i also froze the lg video app too, just in case. Rebooted and now viper sees NEON and i can even run without compatibility mode (which did not work consistantly for me) .
I tried all steps to get this to work, not sure what other things are needed for everyone else, but i tried moving viper to system, installed selinuxmodechanger, maybe this can be uninstalled now, i have no idea. I have no plans to fix what isnt broken and find out myself, so just try freezing lg music app for starters.
Hope it works for you, if so, let the community know what steps you had to do!
I got the HTC 10 not too long ago and I have been really happy with the phone. My only complaint is there isn't a good equalizer for it to work on Bluetooth audio devices.
I've been using Viper4Android for a few years now and haven't ran into many problems with it. My issue now is when I try to install the audio drivers, it prompts me the drivers installed successfully and reboot, but when I reboot, it prompts me to install the drivers again and the driver status says it isn't installed. My phone's bootloader is unlocked and properly rooted, has busybox installed and has SuperSU granted for Viper so I really don't know what is causing this problem.
Is there any way to get Viper audio drivers installed or is there a decent alternativeto it that works on the 10?
Have not tried yet with the 10 but maybe you need to change to permissive and I think you also need a kernel that allows permissive. Any that's what I'm used to with the Nexus 5.

Flash this. Once flashed,you can replace with current version of Viper located in the priv app folder.

Awesome it works like a charm! It even includes the patch where it allows you to use it even if selinux is set to enforcingso you don't have to get a permissive kernel.
I feel what it boils down to is there is probably some sort writing protection to the system that prevents it from being installed by normal means

How did you end up getting it installed? Selinux set to permissive, still couldn't get it to install so I tried this older version but it hangs and won't load, and I can't find the Priv App folder mentioned.
Sorry if it's not quite related, but, what exactly does the application interface install as "drivers?" I need those files to manually install Viper.
Hello dudes and dudiens,
I got a question... I have a OnePlus 5t (Stock Rom / Franco Kernel / 128/8), I tried both systemless and system aplications of Viper4FX and I didnt have any effects on my
Sennheiser Momentum IE. But when I listened to music in my Car (via bluetooth) it had a effect. How could I fix this? :/ any thoughts.?
btw. I yes I have root + magisk (+ optional xposed)
have a nice day ^^
Are you using high res audio output? I had issues with Viper with that.

Install busybox and then try to install driver
Hope it works
I was happy and did not know. It was perfect my viper4fx there magisk suggested an update to version 1.7.5 unfortunately I lost the equalizer, it did not work anymore. I installed busybox, drivers, dozens of times, backed up the versions, nothing. Damn update, I think I'll have to format. I'm sad.
Go into the App, then close it with the exit button in the menu. Then restart the App.
That's works for me.

I have the same issue. Now I use V4A from the XDA store and just install viper manually. It always works. It also shows up as a magisk module, and it works just fine with AML.
Also, if you want to use the magisk repo V4A FX by zackptg5, it doesn't seem to work on oreo but it works great on pie.
I've been trying to get viper4android working on Android q for quite some time but the module and the app itself does not want work at all. Plus when viper asks you to install the driver from the app it will end up in a bootloop. Has anybody found a temp workround for it?
Device: Pixel 2 XL Android version: Q Beta 3
I'm having a similar issue, only the driver install is asked again upon reboot ;_;
Thats only why i rollback from Q.
Total**** sound without
Ok, got it working on beta 3, using the apk 2.7.1.0 from XDA. It appears to install as a magisk module, along with AML. It didn't work on my first try, then all was good. I need to run it in compatibility mode from the menu. https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx
In android P what version did you use?
Always used the magisk repo version before- I tried this many times on Q, with and without AML, but always got the dreaded install driver dialogue. Also tried SE Linux permissive, but no luck. I've never used the apk before, but am sat here now listening to music quite happily. It's survived a couple of reboots (just checking).

Hm, I just tried that. I downloaded the one off XDA LABS and checked compatibility mode on the app. Still showing up as driver not installed. Viper4Android is literally the key element for my phones such a good module.
Try another reboot?

I just upgraded to Android 10 on my Pixel 2XL and have Viper running now. Download stable 2.7.1.0 from XDA Labs, grant root with Magisk. Check compatibility mode THEN install the driver. Restart, make changes, and then be sure to check "Attach audio effects" in settings once you make your changes.

Ok, here's what you gotta do to get it to work, this is the ONLY method I've had consistently work for me from beta 3-public release(did it an hour ago and worked perfectly)
First, uninstall any viper you have also make sure you completely uninstall audio modification library if you have it installed, not disable, uninstall it and reboot after uninstalling what I've listed.
After you're all booted back up, install viper from labs (link in this thread)(Also, forget about compatibility mode, don't use it) now open viper but do NOT install the driver yet, just open the application then go to magisk and install audio modification library but dont let magisk reboot the phone after it installs. Once installation completed, go back to viper and install the driver and let it reboot. Once booted, go straight to magisk and DISABLE audio modification library (uncheck the box next to it if you dont get what I mean) don't uninstall it. After disabling AML head back to viper and install the driver again. Now once rebooted is the moment of truth, if you open viper and its installed you're obviously done but if it's not installed you have to take this next step: don't install the driver just yet, go to magisk and re-enable AML then back to viper and install the driver. I don't see why this would not work for you guys, I know this isn't the easiest tutorial to follow but make sure you follow it to a T, if you mess any step up you need to start from scratch and uninstall both AML and viper and start again.
Good luck guys and may the audiophile Gods be on your side through this process!

Take a bow good sir, it worked! Had to follow the steps to the end as first time around it didn't work. Now seems to be alright (see attached)
For anyone else wondering, I upgraded from Aug 9.0 build to Q (020) last night by flashing the factory ROM without wipe. Rooted, ads disabled and now ViperFX working. Life is goooood :angel:

By enabling, I meant turning on the master limiter and other settings. I adjusted mine with a nice YouTube track playing in the background and it all worked a treat. Yet to do my Bluetooth earphones though

@1dopewrx05 I followed your mini tutorial to a T and it worked perfectly. Thank you for taking the time to do this, I really appreciate it. Just updated my old faithful to 10 earlier and gonna mess around with some of the neat features. I can't live without Viper, it's essential to me.
