I had a S6, and with every custom rom, I just installed the apk, installed the driver, rebooted and there, it worked.
But with this phone every custom rom I try doesn't seem to install the driver, instead it asks to install the driver again.
I have changed the kernel SELinux setting and I get the same error? Has anyone got viper to work and on what rom??

I am stock, rooted on the latest Marshmallow build and have flashed the attached file through TWRP with great success. Drivers loaded just fine and audio quality is awesome.
Good luck!
I use Viper atmos sony and beats edition and it works well. I'm using Chroma and ElementalX.
You can try with the flashable zip here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/themes-apps/viper4android-t2952137

Ok
(Unlocked Model, Unlocked, S-Off, Verizon RUU, rooted)
I have tried installing V4A, but after installing drivers it hangs upon opening, eventually causing the phone to reboot.
I have tried both backing up and renaming the htc_audio_effects.conf file, as well as editing it to include the V4A info. Nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?
First of all you need root. You have to set Android to permissive, then install V4A using TWRP and ZIP. Install drivbers and it will work AFTER you set V4A driver mode to "compatible". Just tested using latest Leedroid custom rom (nightly R34) on HTC 10 (s-off).

What version did you use? I'm using Venom and I've done exactly what you did and Viper keeps prompting me to install the driver

Flash in recovery. Spent all afternoon looking for proper install instructions and found nothing until that nice fellow posted those.
Viper4android did not work 100% using Leedroid: systemsound got crippled
Viper4android is working 100% with ViperROM. Just flash the above ZIP and all is working fine.

I'm on Leedroid 1.2 stable and works perfectly.
I did experience the crippled audio you're referring to during a failed installation. Make sure the /system/etc/htc_audio_effects.conf exists and wasn't deleted.

Which specific version did you flash? What changes did you make to get the best audio out of the 10?

Do you have any idea whether it would work on stock rom or not? Of course I'm rooted and s-off.

Check your selinux status it needs to be permissive for V4A to work.
Actually I installed it and it works. Kinda. And yes I used a script to get permissive selinux. It only works with music, (spotify, google music). Youtube has no sound whatsoever ar audible is crackling and fussing all over. "Fixed" it by changing the htcaudioeffect file back to normal, which disables viper4android. I just wish it worked with all sound.
First off I will say I am on Stock Rooted ROM and it works perfectly, I have confirmed its 100% compatible, You DO NOT have to use permissive, I have an Enforcing Patch in my thread along with more info on what you need to do to get it working, also for HTC 10 there is a specific file to flash that I also made, without it V4A will not work, and keep asking to install drivers!
My Thread
V4A HTC 10 Fix
After this, if you can't get it working either there is something you still haven't done or your ROM developer has messed up a certain system file associated with Audio, I have seen this before.
One last thing I should note, S-ON can cause issues, you should either have S-OFF or System Write Protection Disabled via a kernel module, S-ON can prevent a script from making changes to /System.
About V4A
On the A9 it will work but it will put Boomsound to Off all the time, is it the same on the 10 or you can use both without problem?

I use both no problem, personal Profile and V4A works great, Dolby Headphone effect works perfectly as well.
I installed the 2 zips a couple of days ago and the sound is pretty great for me. I see people mentioning different profiles, enabling speaker and other modes, etc., but how can you do that without installing the APK (as advised not to)? I don't know of any other UI to control those types of things?

I believe V4A needs to make changes to the system when installing the drivers. And on this device, system is write-protected even with root. The result is that the system changes revert to "stock" upon reboot.
I suggest flashing getting the wp_mod (write protection kernel mod) zip from this thread, and flash in TWRP. Then try to install the V4A drivers again.
Make a backup in TWRP before doing any of this. If anything goes wrong, you have an easy way to restore back to where you started.

İts working now

Custom ROMs will already have the write protection mod applied; so I suspect that is why the system changes stuck.
Before I go back to 9.0.0, i figured i would ask....
Anyone get Viper4Android to install properly on Q?
I tried the latest Viper Magisk Module v1.4.2 i think... Magisk completed the installation but after reboot, Viper is requiring Drivers to be installed. So i install the Drivers, which took longer then normal, reboot and BAM! Viper needs to install Drivers on your device.
So Q doesnt seem to wanna play well with the Viper drivers.
And i tried installing Busybox for ****s and giggles and install fails in Magisk....
Thanks in advance for any assistance and/or **** head comments,
T

Try using this viper apk, it generates a magisk module when you reboot the phone. In the latest update post, OP says:
The compatibility mode switch has been added back. This seems to be mandatory for car mode and some android q builds.

Yea thanks for trying but no go. The apk did install the Magisk Module, Drivers took 2-3 times but finally took. Driver Status is all NOs and Unsupported Sometime soon i'm sure...
i've been trying for 2 whole days now to install viper4android on my oneplus 9 pro, i just can't get it to install. I'm basically stuck in an install loop and i've tried almost everything (permissive, AML, clean install, v4a repackaged, android 12 fix) but none of them work.
I wonder if anyone got viper working on their device running a custom android 12 rom
Take a look:
Viper4Android

tried that too and just now tried it on just stock lineage os on A11 but still no luck nstalling v4a
This method worked for me in several custom ROMs in A12 and A12, bit just following the steps exactly and rebooting in every step (and you have to activate legacy mode).

i did follow every step with the reboots after each module but i'm still stuck in an install loop so i cant even get to the settings unfortunately... i've never had so much trouble with a device
Uninstall all the modules, try the procedure again with these files. I tried with other and got driver loop as you did, but it worked with these.

So install magisk, reboot, AML, reboot, JamesDSP, reboot, V4A, install drivers and let it reboot? kernel can stay in enforcing?
After last reboot, you have to substitute the fs file as stated in the other thread, reboot again and set legacy mode.
I am in enforced kernel, yes.

Got it working finally!! Could you supply me with the modification i need to make in the post fs file? So i follow you exactly? Also can i remive jamesdsp now or does it need to stay installed?
You have to replace this file in /data/adb/modules/Viper4AndroidFX and reboot. About JamesDSP I don't really use it so I disabled the app, although I have to do it in every reboot

But can i remive jamesdsp from magisk or does it need to be installed in order to keep viper working? Like the moment you remove it viper just stops working?
Don't know, never tried. If you try, tell me, but I didn't want to do more tests.

If you uninstall it viper is once again stuck in an install loop so you do need jamesdsp to stay installed
Ok. Good to know. Will left it installed, then.
