Installing V4A or other audio mods - Moto Z2 Play Questions & Answers

Hello everybody. I have Magisk and couldn't install Viper module, neither the usual viper .zip via TWRP.
Have you been able to install any of the available audio mods on your Z2 Play?

I too am interested.
I prefer the Atmos version, ViPERAtmos 4.8 Sony Beats Universal Edition, but I don't think it's compatible with Nougat.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I installed ARiSE sound system in my z2 play, which contains Viper and Dolby Atmos

I have a module called viper 4arise installed and its working very well

Could you post a link to the download / thread that worked for you? I can try to install and make a simple tutorial for other folks.
Thanks!

Here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709 install the last stable version

Thanks! I've looked at ARISE a few times, but it seems life meant steps to install. I guess I'm going to have to bear it.
Does it sound as good at Atmos?

I manage to install it. It's overall pretty simple. You can extract the installation .prop file to /emulated/0 and edit it there to get a 1 cycle install. Otherwise your first try will do just that and return an error (so you'll have to edit the file anyways).
I tried all versions of viper there but none worked (all showed abnormal status) also, remember to mark for installation the Magisk compatibility.
I'm using Atmos, working very nicely, but still wish Viper had worked...

That's weird, I have Viper and atmos working in my device. Previously I set SElinux permissive and installed Busybox

Oh that must be it. I have it on enforcing. Will test with permissive then. Thanks!

Well, it worked! AriSE with SELinux mode changer set to permissive.
Thanks a lot!
With Dolby and viper our speakers sound WAY better! Headphones are even more awesome!

Dirty Unicorns can't install V4A drivers

Hey guys. I'm trying to get viper4android working on my Nexus 5x running the most recent stable version of Dirty Unicorns.
I tried just normally installing the apk. Changing selinux to permissive. I have the newest version of su and BusyBox installed and yet the driver refuses to install. Every time I restart my phone it says I need to install the driver.
I've been looking around online and I can't seem to find a good answer for what exactly I need to do to get it working.
The popular thread in the Nexus 6 section has way to much info and I just can't follow it to install it properly. I basically want viper4android so I can use pulse with Spotify.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
Flash either of these ViperAudio or ViperAtmos (if you want Dolby Atmos too) in TWRP. It works even with systemless root and enforcing SELinux.

Anyone tried flashing arise soundmod in oos oreo?

I tried to search the thread of arise but I can't find someone with a oneplus 3 who flashed arise in oreo. Thanks
Yes, I am using Arise's Magnum Opus build with Open Beta 25. Arise core module, dolby digital and Viper4Arise working fine for me. AM3D not working. What help do you need?
Really @ishanp? Okay, I guess I'll try to install it too. I just read from jamal's thread that divine beats doesn't work because busybox isn't working with oreo and I assumed that since viper also uses busybox that it won't work. Thanks bro!
Use meefik's busybox from Play Store and install in /sbin/
Alternatively if you can run Magisk you can go systemless Busybox route too.
So what's your install process with arise @ishanp? Install busybox first, then flash arise?
Precisely. Make sure you properly configure your arise.prop and keep it in /sdcard/ before flashing.
Enable ONLY Core module and Viper 2.5.0.5

Audio mod - Dolby?

Hello there,
I've checked out a few threads but can't find any pertaining to my exact situation.
So I'm on OB28, so Oreo OOS, tried a few proposed sound mods but none of them seem to work or else I'm doing something wrong.
Flashed a few compatible TWRP recoveries and rooted. Tried that ARISE mod but either the mods I'm interested in don't work or seem to give me FCs on reboot. Tried random dolby zips which don't do anything. I've even had a "factory data reset" message on startup with an automatic reboot to recovery.
Is there any decent audio mod that works on Oreo OOS (preferably Dolby)? If so, please show me how to get this done.
Thanks
There is no practical way to get Dolby Atmos working on Oreo as of now. Dolby Digital, however, can work. You can flash this mod by guitardedhero:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74880570&postcount=31701
Note that every other audio mod needs to be removed including any in Magisk for this to work. Viper can be flashed after this works but not a priori. SELinux permissive is necessary.

Sound Mod | Viper4Android | Magisk 16 |Oreo | 25.04.2018

Hi guys,
I just tested several Sound Mods for Android. So I want to share my best settings for the HTC U11 + U sonic Earphones with you.
Working on:
Stock based ROM (8.0 based)
LOS based ROM (8.1 based)
Install Viper4Android via MagiskManager (Get it from here or directly under Downloads in Magisk, I am using Viper4Android 2.6.0.4 with the new Material Design)
Reboot
Install the AINUR Audio Mod (Get it from here or install it directly through Magisk Manager -> Downloads -> Ainur Sauron.)
Reboot
Install AML(Audio Modification Library) via Magisk or flash it from here
Reboot
Open Viper4Android. Driver Status should be working now. If not dirty Flash your ROM and start again at 1.
Load my HTC U11 Profile that I attached to this post. When using Viper4Android FX greater or equal to version 1.6 than use the v2 Profile. Everything lower than Viper4Android FX 1.6 just use the v1 Profile. Unzip the attached File to the Viper4Android Folder at the Internal Storage of your Device. Dont forget to load the Profile in V4A.
Hope you are enjoing this as much as I do. If you got any recommendations or suggestions let me know.
for me is processing on no, have already made as described a dirty flash of my Rom
edit: I have solved the problem with the music player just pause and play again and it works

Did you already installed another soundmod? This happened to me after I flashed ARISE. Only a full wipe helped me out. I am also using Leedroid R124.
I uninstall sauron and aml befor i try to flash all the stuff in the way you describe it. Before i have sauron only.
After i uninstall dolby in twrp the phone boots up normaly.

Hmm maybe its a problem with sauron that Dolby dont work when you flash sauron before. As I said I recommend a complete wipe then it should work without any problems.

I saw in Leedroid thread that you have to change a line in arise_parameters1.prop , to avoid bootloops
After flashed as your instructions, everything works like a charm bur only ANC not work anymore
I finally got it to work, but sound quality is not as good as on Dolby Atmos Nougat, I think I will stick to V4A + usb dongle boost mod till dolby is updated
Will just the viper4Android work and give good sound quality
Sent from my 2PZC5 using XDA Free mobile app
Actual Dolby can't work while V4A works, at least with me, I have to disable one of them so the other work, but anyway actual dolby on oreo is not good as audio quality, it was way better on Nougat
I have yet to get Ahrion's version of Viper4Android FX to work. Even his AM3D Zirene Sound hasn't worked for the 11 since Magisk. The only one that works for me is ShadySquirrel's for Magisk v15.

I can use Ahrion's version, but it has to be the v1.5.2/2.5.0.5 version. I've never been able to get any 2.3.4.0 versions to work on Oreo, due to the driver not being able to install.
Anybody get Dolby to install? I'm getting Api error

I must reckon the new Dolby port on Oreo is pretty good, I am using dynamic selection to boost both surround and bass. Always be sure to have Dolby surround mode On (green icon)

First at all nothing will happen. If doesn't infect your system.

Please read the instruction carefully.

From the build prop file I sent value "true" for core installation and viper arise 2.5... then I installed viper4android from magisk (the material one v2.5) and after reboot uninstalled the one marked in the screenshot.
I loaded the profile by copying to the viper folder after extraction. But I don't find any controls working from the viper app Whatever switch I on or off... No difference noticed.)
(I am using Cr Droid 5.0, I have uninstalled the default Audio fx equalizer)
Did I do anything wrong in my steps? Can I please get help.

I flash the arise version as you mentioned in OP i always follow instructions but when i tried to flash Arise version installation failed. I installed viper from magisk and loaded up your profiles, well sound is good now especially the bass and surround sound better than Dolby for oreo and nougat for vince, loving it now but as you mentioned Arise version is better than the normal one waiting for all in one file as i tried thirce and all times installtion aborted in latest twrp treble. And i kept all files in the same folder after extracting the folder which contains profile and kernel.

You should install the arise viper zip first. Then the viper version from magisk download section.
If you did that check also if storage permission for viper app.
Load the profile again and test it (gain volume in output options)

Thanks for the feedback.
Did you copy the file arise customize prop file from zip file into the main storage folder?
Why did you not use orangefox project as recovery?
Profile and kernel folder should be in the viper4android folder.
Gonna work on the all in one file have to test some things.
Gonna optimize the profile also.
