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
Should we install Unity or standard version from the official thread?

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)

Hi,if u like V4A audio efect.ill share how u can use V4A in AEX rom.
First,u must rooted and install busybox.
-Ok if u done upper step,lets boot your zuk z2 into twrp
flash v4a4.2.zip(V4A 4.2) and reboot system.
-Now launch V4A,install driver and reboot
Ok,now its time to update latest V4A version 2.5.0.5
-Install RootExplorer (optional) or u can use twrp file manager to delete V4A 4.2 apk in system.
-Flash V4A 2.5 in twrp and u done.
Optional you can delete apk in system or disable MusicFx.
thank you, but i didn't find or couldn't do the delete part with root explorer or twrp, but it worked anyhow.

If you using root explorer try find viper4android 4.2 folder in root/system/priv-app.
Thank you for your information. I have got much easier way to use it(if you have magisk installed). First install the viper4android zip using twrp. Reboot. Then open mgix go to download and select viper4android. Just tap on the arrow and tap on install. After installing it will ask your permission to reboot. Just reboot your device and enjoy. Sounds tricky but process is as simple as water.

I don't think sound quality would still be lacking after you installed ARISE. Do share your setup (pm me, this isn't the correct thread) so we could get to the bottom of your issue.

If the hardware is ****e any kind of software is not going to make it good. It's not magic.
does it work on aex 5.1 ,( the january update)?
Haha, very timely post. I was trying to get Viper for the first time on Oreo two days ago.
One question, are apps other than music players processed by Viper as well? I ask because I installed Arise but emulators and games didn't get audio processing, only my music players.
Thanks!
I'm getting driver install failed error I/o while setting up v4a on Validus 8.1

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

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!
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.

Not my work, just sharing this awesome work.
Here is the link for the official Dolby Oreo port -
https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4365169&d=1513721346
Just flash it in TWRP 3.2.1.0
*MAGISK REQUIRED
Tested working on AEX 5.1
It significantly improved audio quality and loudness.
Original post link -
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74943166&postcount=31837
UNINSTALLATION-
Simply remove the module from Magisk Manager and reboot.
Just a tip to manually increase volume -
1. Go to *root* > vendor > etc
2. Open mixer_paths_tasha.xml in editor.
3. To increase speaker volume -
Find "RX7 DIGITAL VOLUME" and change it's value from 84 to 87
For headphones volume -
Find HPHL and HPHR and change their values from 12 to 15.
4. Reboot device.
Just hit the thanks button if it helps.
Yes working on pixel experience rom 8.1.0

Not yet. Try clearing cache/dalvik or dirty flashing the ROM. But this mod won't get any ROM into bootloop.

Sound output through headphones seem a bit increased but yes, through speaker it's still a bit low. Guess we have to wait devs to increase the volume in their respective Oreo ROMs first.
Works Good. I'm on AOSP Extended Oreo 8.1 beta (26/12/2017 build) and I can observe significantly better sounds while watching videos (in MX player) through Phone's speaker.
Thanks for sharing.?

It's a Magisk module, so yeah you need to have Magisk installed.
OP updated with steps to increase volume and other details.
I flashed this mod on Validus 8.1 but no Dolby app has appeared on my phone and on top of that, my AR Sticker pack has also been disabled although both of em being shown as enabled on Magisk Manager.

You only need to uninstall magisk completely and re-install it. No need to uninstall all the modules. Magisk will start working again along with the modules.

There is still a problem, you can not use BUSYBOX after installing this???
BUSYBOX is very important
I am currently using Dolby Atmos (via Magisk version for OnePlus X is working without any customization) and instead V4A i'm using JamesDSP, which have one big advantage. No more background noise when processing sound. And AML ofc.

Yup, the one which is in settings app, just make your custom profile and that's it, that boost volume and some audio improvements as well
Anybody tried this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony-themes-apps/port-sony-xperia-xz2-sound-enhancements-t3772758 ?

Hi, on which Rom you are on? Does the Dolby Atmos for Oneplus X work on Leedroid?
TIA
Regards,
Schizzo
I am on LeeDroid. In my case it works well, but i needed to turn off Dolby Headphone effects in BoomSound, because two dolby systems at once... it's not a good idea.
You can modify htc_audio_effects.conf too and remove old dolby. But as i said, it should work without editing anything.
