Sound too low

Hi all,
In my previous android phone (samsung s3) I had the same problem, but i solved it with root and edited a simply file into system to increase (i think) decibel.
With my rooted OP3, i tried to edit a similar file like in the samsung s3 with no results, then i have install viper4android and EX kelnel to boost audio, but the sound increases distorting the file....
Do you have a solution.... ?

Just flash viperarise sounds and sound will be louderand still good quality + dolby sounds

Can you give me link?
I found a thread, but viper4arise give me: i/o error
Edit: Installed with success, but it seems like viper4android.
The problem come when i raise the volume, the bass are distorted.
I usually download mp3 from youtube at 320kbps, i tried also other way like torrent, but audio quality looks the same.
Can you give me a suggest to download music at the best quality? Also if isn't mp3 extension.
Thank you.

Find an appropriate setting for your Headphone in viper4arise. Download kernel files and select in the convolver option, u can get it by a simple Google search.

Headphone volume in Soundmod 1.0 is louder than Soundmod 2.0
​

Awesome! but i noticed that the sound quality and volume on ringtone is worse compared to music players and other stuff. for example i play a music and its sound is awesome through both speakers but when i set the same file as ringtone and test call on my phone the ringtone is much much lower. im gonna try this to see if this make a difference to that
if headphone volume in 1.0 is louder than 2.0 then what is changed in 2.0? speaker volume?
Edit: i accidentally deleted the original file can you provide it pls?

Thank you, Sir.

Bro, is version 1 and 2 exactly the same, only 2 being louder for headphone? Otherwise loudspeaker, gaming/earpiece the same?
When doing voice calls/Skype/Viber?messenger is the earpiece/loudspeaker louder than stock? Have you enabled stereo speakers when loudspeaker phone call?
Compatible with both Nougat and Oreo?
Thanks!

Excellent, thank you for your response!

Unfortunately did not work for me.
Upon rebooting my device I get ''sound settings'' error message followed by a low buzzing sound and no sound.
I had to copy the stock.zip default back to get my sound working again.
Could you please look into this?
My device is the XZ Premium Dual G8142.
My device has unlocked bootloader and is rooted with recovery. All instructions were followed including setting the mixer_paths to RW-R-R, not working.

Ok then you may not require any audiophile rom to be installed on your phone as quality of audio does not depend on input device (partially). It mainly depend upon your output (may be speaker or headphones).
But sound processing is also a term you should glance at (good in our phone z2 plus as it has SD820):good:

DivineBeats 10.0
I use DivineBeats 10.0 Infinity on AEX 4.6. It is a single zip file with both Dolby and Viper. Give it a try and believe me you would be amazed to hear the sound quality. Moreover the sound effect can be applied globally.

What I hate Dolby is that it can't set different profile for different sound output. I don't want to apply any eq or sound mod for phone speaker as it tends to distort easily with my taste of sound for headphone/bluetooth speaker. This is the reason why I always refuse to use Dolby.

Did you try Oreo version on Pie? Maybe it will work. If not, just uninstall it and I will check when I will have some free time.

Works for me on Pie dezember patch. I dont no it is possible to fix, but the volume of earpiece its far below the main speaker. I tried to cover the main speaker, the sound from earpiece its barely noticeable.

Hey,
I am not sure, how it sounds on Pie, but on Oreo it works pretty decent and difference is noticeable (in compare without/with this activated module). Since earpiece is not actually made for audio playback its better kept mod at the low level and of course- it is pseudo-stereo experience, so its not much when you will compare to real stereo on some phones (S10, iPhone XS etc.) but it is still better than nothing, I guess. But as I wrote, I am not sure how it works on Pie.

It works on pie I have been using it for awhile now I use this along with viper

Definitely works but sound from earpiece speaker is very low. Is there any fix for this. Maybe tweak it so it has louder sounds on lower volumes.

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.

Best S20 Ultra sound booster app is Volume Booster by GOODEV, https://forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?f=1332&t=3525762&hilit=goodev, it's too loud really but perfect for the hard of hearing.

Mega Equalizer for me. Boosts volume like volume booster by goodev but has an equalizer too

ffs mate dont post cracked apps on here especially from that site that just pushes so much adware

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

Got it working by
1. Install viper
2. Open it
3. Tap on install 'drivers' (your phone will reboot
immediately)
4. 0pen Viper and enjoy
If it doesn't work the first time, install drivers again
There was no need to flash any other module in magisk.

my device sm-g9860 snapdragon model (rooted) doesnt work

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?
