Audio Mod OP3 - Where is it? - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Can anyone help me out.
Can't find the audio mod for OxygenOS.
Viper or Dolby atmos. One that's good for headphones.
Cheers

Try divine beats by the royal seeker.
I use it.
Or use Neutron player or black player EX apps they have good audio processing...!

Divine beats and Viper4Android (ViPER4Android_FX_v2401_A4.x-A6.x.apk) does not work on OnePlus 3 yet. V4A drivers can be installed but will not initialize (OxygenOS v3.2.4)

My Collective Dolby Atmos ports works for OP3. I think the only one that doesn't is the Axon 7 Atmos port.
Just because they aren't in this forum doesn't mean they don't work. Check the Software Development forums.
As for installing V4A and driver, the above poster is wrong. It works. Unfortunately OnePlus released a bugged Vendor audio_effects.conf file so installing V4A won't work out of the box. You need to go to System/etc/audio_effects.conf and copy it to Vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf and replace. When you do this you can install simple stuff like Dolby Atmos or V4A without having to install Arise to get good audio.

Hey, are you talking **** right now?
I have tried it with V4A, replaced the audio_effect.conf as you mentioned, but the issue is the same. There is no app which is capable of utilizing V4A as MusicFX plugin on OP3 currently (OxygenOS v3.2.6), actually the stock MusixFX shows up if you are calling MusixFX from PowerAmp or SoundWire (or other musicfx compatible app). Even tried compatible mode in V4A (with restart), got the same result. Normally V4A would replace native MusicFX, this is clearly not the case. So yeah, I can install it, but cannot use it. No step forward was made.
I have used the latest available V4A version.
Can you elaborate how did you actually made it?
Please provide exact versions and clear steps, also sources for downloads, so anyone could reproduce what you have acheived.

I've already said how to do it. Sources? Well I develop for Android and reverse engineer Android. I also happen to own this phone as my daily driver and also an HTC9/HTC10 among other devices.
Try with another player. Saying "it doesn't work" tells nobody anything that's useful. Give logs and info, not just vague "doesn't work". To my knowledge, Poweramp doesn't play well with other DSPs. Try another app for testing.
I've had the OP3 since it came out. Firstly, you need to completely disable MusicFX and make sure the "on" isn't checked. Secondly, V4A works with the method I had suggested and so does LeMax Atmos, Axon 7 Atmos does not work on OOS.
OP3 is my daily driver. You either take my expert advice or don't, but I hardly can call that"talking ****".

One of my conclusions were to set SElinux to permissive with the following command: 'setenforce permissive' using tasker at boot, and viola

(Q) About CM AudioFx and equalizer.

I really like the AudioFX in the CyanogenMod ROMs, unfortunately, it's effects just for only Music app, when I use other apps like MX Player, Youtube or directly from Browser,... It hasn't effects.
- I've searched and used some alternative Equalizer Apps but it's not better than AudioFX with the best function is: Auto detect the Output (Headphone, Speaker, Bluetooth, USB,...)
- I also tried the Viper4Android, It's nearly similar but always requires rooted and have to installed Busybox for Driver's Installation.
- The DSP Equalizer is same with AudioFX, no more especial.
So somebody has another solution?
Or somehow to apply AudioFX's effect for all other app or System?

Yes, i tried. But it has not Bass Boost and cannot auto detect Output like CM AudioFX, It'll damage speaker when I unplug headphone,
You should really try ViPER4Android FX. It's quite good and has options tailored for people ranging from beginners to experts. Are you running stock MIUI, which is why you don't have root and busybox?
root is always better than non root, just saying

hh.Yeah, Actualy I like AudioFX's interface : simple, morden, active, not need to install driver, another software,...
So my main purpose is looking for some ways to apply it's effects for all other app, not only the Music app.

Sound Quality on Nougat Based ROMs

Hi Everyone,
Is it just me or the sound quality after updating to Nougat has really gone down (that we need upgrades like A.R.I.S.E or Divine beats?). Earlier I noticed that we used to have a simple mod for any sound i.e. Viper4Android, which is still MOTHER OF ALL SOUND MODs for me .
I noticed that the audio playback is having VERY MUFFLED bass through my home theatre system over the same bluetooth connection while playing with MM ROM. I tried rolling back to MM and things work perfectly. I wish to stay on Nougat for obvious advantages of the newer UI, better battery & performance but would still like to see if anyone can port the lib from MM to N?
I don't essentially want to install ARISE or Divine Beats; for me Viper4Android is just fine and I would love if it works just the way it used to on MM.
PS: I bought my home theatre after tweaking Viper v2.5.0.5 on MM and the same is not working after updating to N.... any help is appreciated.

I use Beats Audio player & Audio Tuner from sound settings. On headphones sounds good.

The sound libraries have DEFINITELY changed in the system which are truly worse than Marshmallow!
I certainly need someone's help in getting them Ported back or else I have no other option other than rolling back to MM (since I spend 4-5 hrs/day on music). :crying:

Viper4Android and Divine beats/A.R.I.S.E are completely different. Divine beats and arise change your music first without you going into the app to change things. When I installed freedomOS with Divine beats, I notice my bass was extremely overpowered and everything just sounded like crap.... I really don't understand people's music choices sometimes. All these sound mods just make the phone sound like crap, especially since the OP3 already has a much warmer profile, meaning the bass and highs are very pronounced from the box

Exactly my point.
Even though the sound out of box was very good, using Viper4Android would take it to the next level. But Divine/A.R.I.S.E fiddle too much and extort the audio.
Marshmallow sound libraries were literally awesome and V4A on top of it would just make it mind blowing. Don't know how to get that same experience without going back from Nougat. :'(

Well you can install freedomOS without the Divine beats and what not, install Blu_spark kernel and set it to SElinux to permissive. Then you can install Viper4Android on its own and you'll have some nice audio.

I strongly recommend against this. Just install Magisk or use something that comes with Magisk preinstalled and install the Viper4Android from the Magisk repo / Magisk module. There is also one for Dolby Atmos. That way you don't have to mess with SELinux or modify system files.
Nah...Didn't go well.
Still the same sound quality. Muffled and garbled.
I have the EXACT same issue. I can't believe OnePlus went ahead and did this. Who do I tell?
I have great sound...experienceos + viper4arise with magisk. Install permissive script for magisk to avoid overheating issues. Dont tinker to much in viper . This is my speaker setting its loud and very clear. I love it.

I beg to differ from your opinion here though.
After trying out 4 different Nougat based ROMs and 4 different Marshmallow based ROMs (yeah....took a lot of time with clean installation and stuff), I easily infer that OP3 Nougat ROMs have REALLY POOR sound libraries. Viper4Android alone works well with Marshmallow based ROMs (and using it with A.R.I.S.E/Divine Beats/etc. makes it even better) and bass doesn't distort at all (saved a few Viper Profiles and re-used them between ROMs). But the same profile in Viper on Nougat sounds just CRAP!!
Don't know what the solution here. Just wish there was some way to find out what is it that is causing this to happen? Which part of sound library or which file? Can anyone help?

Audio mods- what's everybody using?

So one of my biggest factors in choosing a phone used to be the ability to mod audio.
After having a S8 and no root i found solutions for the lack volume and vibrant sound through non root solutions. Such as eq apps that actually do a great job at boosting volume, and using quality head phones.
With SU now supported i would like to hear what others are doing. I saw the majisk update to 14.2 but my majisk knowledge is lacking so I was waiting till someone posted more about the support on our device.
I'm on tmob variant btw.
I am using a app called equalizer Fx and freezing the built in eq with TB
Before are screens of my setup for the audio eq that really boost headphone volume quite a bit.
Thanks
Second screen shot for my eq settings

I know there are quite a few magisk modules for audio including Viper audio. I think we need magisk or a recovery for Viper. You could try removing deep buffering in the mixer path.xml system/etc but i don't think that will help. I think we need more to get it working. Thanks for coming in though

You don't know what you're talking about. I installed Magisk Modules Viper4Android, Ainur Sauron, Audio Compatibility Patch, and Audio Modification Library to my P2XL. There is a tremendous difference in the sound quality, especially using headphones.
The sound is not only louder, but cleaner and with greater dynamic range. This is what equalizers like V4A do. Ainur Sauron uses modified sound libraries to further improve the sound, and the Audio Modification Library ensures Pandora, Spotify, and other similar apps use V4A and Ainur Sauron settings when outputting audio. The Compatibility Patch ensures they all work together.
I don't have Dolby Atmos on my P2XL, but with this setup I don't need it.
@oraned: Check the Magisk forum, though the downloads window in Magisk should have links for what you're looking for.
Note: I'm not going to comment the usage of sound processing for watching movies, because the entertainment concept is different from listening to music. Now, concerning music:
IMHO, music should be enjoyed with as little processing as possible, because when it was composed and recorded by the author he (she) wanted it to sound that way. The less bells&whistles added, the better.
Pixel 2XL has a decent native sound quality via the bundled usb-c adapter, and can also stream aptX (and aptXHD) via bluetooth.
It's much more important to have a good pair of headphones, avoiding putting lipstick on a pig.
That said, and because even good headphones have different tuning, you may want to choose a proper equalizer to slightly adjust the frequency bands and gain.
And let us not forget: when you want hi-fi quality music, you will want to use an hi-fi gadget on a quiet place
The phone will always be a "good enough" option, compared to it.
But it's so damn "good enough", that we tend to forget that

I was just about to install Ainur Sauron again since I was on Oreo. If you don't mind me asking, do you tweak the Ainur Sauron config at all or do you use the default? I'm thinking I'll use the v4a with the audiophile profile and Ainur Sauron default config. :good:
Thanks!
@felosisman: I use the Ainur Sauron defaults.

This statement would make sense if the artist had control over such things. They don't. It's a proven fact that the sound engineer is one who makes those decisions, and almost always at the behest of the record label, not the artist.
No artist worth their salt would want their music mastered in such a way that all sounds were equal in volume. Yet you repeatedly find music mastered this way. Equalization is essential to make such music sound tolerable, but admittedly it can only do so much.
Do a Google search for "Loudness War" and see just how record labels killed music.

Why I don't see Ainur Sauron app in my pixel 2 after I installed?
Hi, I have a pixel 2 and I would like to improve your speakers. How do I have to install Viper4Android?
@oraned: It's not an app, just a mod and thus doesn't appear in the app drawer. Note that if you install Ainur Sauron with V4A you must also install the audio compatibility patch or neither V4A nor Ainur Sauron will work.
@Galeonero: The easiest method is through Magisk. Just follow the prompts to install it.

I could, but XDA has an entire forum devoted to Magisk. Very easy to find with the search bar at the top of the page at upper right, or even with a Google search.
As to how to root this device, there is an entire subforum devoted to tutorials for the P2XL. Read those tutorials in the Guides, News & Discussion subforum first before trying anything.

What you mean install the audio compatibility?
@oraned: It's self-explanatory. The modules will tell you what they need to work and your job is to install them. One of those things is an audio compatibility patch that allows multiple sound modules to work together.
Now, it's time for you to help yourself. If you need more details about a particular module, head to the Magisk forum and search. Most modules have dedicated threads providing more detail about what they do.

Is it possible to delete/completely deactivate Dolby Atmos?

Hello, I bought the OP 7T a few months ago and since the first moment that I used my headphones with it I hated Dolby Atmos, it's not the first time that I have it and hate it, But now it's in my daily driver and I can't hear music anymore with it, it sounds extremely low in comparison with my previous phone (Xiaomi mi 6), so I want to delete or deactivate Dolby Atmos and be able to use the Android's stock Equalizer. I really need to find a way to do it or I'll start looking for another phone without it...
I was able to do it when connected to bluetooth but now when just on speaker. I've not tried on headphones. Is the option for None just not there when on headphones?
Man,
Dolby atmos is a beast. It’s my dream to use it since i used it in htc one long time ago. Howeveri Don't know whats your problem with sound(it never happened to me). Incase of increasing the sound you should use poweramp.Although It's paid but i have to say, it's Worth it for just a couple of bucks and use it lifetim.

I've tried poweramp but it barely makes a difference, i'm not kidding when I say that the volumen it's not even the half of what it was with my other phone, and the headphones aren't the issue, but since I used Dolby Atmos in my Yogabook I noticed that the volume was lower in headphones and external speakers
