You could try installing it through Magisk but it may not work. I use the same zip to increase the volume and have always flashed it through recovery.

and especially on my s6 with dual speaker mod it was much better, the sound was almost perfect but there was some bass lack comparing the iphone 6

update!
I added the dual speaker mod after editing it to work on android pie installed the vipe4 android and I gained 6dbs its little bit better now(it is not game changer but its just ok!), when I plug my headphones with the jack (for know I don't have a problem with the headphone being removed before because every month I breaking 2 or more cables so my last Bluetooth earphones lasted almost 9 months (vipe4 android works on Bluetooth headphones too !

I have done everything and the dual speaker is not going, I do not like to have the icon of the mic up in the taskbar, it would be better to modify the mixer.patch, but as when I change it back to the default ... no nothing can be done ... the path of the mixer is sytem / vendor / etc and when modofica returns to the default value ... is there anything that can be done to modify it and stay recorded ???

I have to ask, but have you try to fix the mic issue with build.prop editor in the rom toolbox?
Open the build.prop app and change the values of these lines:
persist.audio.handset.mic.type=digital --> replace digital with analog
persist.audio.dualmic.config=endfire -- replace endfire with false
After editing, reboot the device. I got these solutions from the post by worldextermination. This fix many phone mic problems include not able to talk with ear phone plug in.
yea, try what hawkwind212 said. most likely need to change the build.prop. I had to change bunch of things in the build.prop for my phone to work correctly on my special edition lollipop. after fresh install, there were few things that didn't work correctly.

[MOD] DOLBY ATMOS for OREO (8.0/8.1) [SHARE]

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.

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.

[GSI] [treble] Android 9 pie Bluetooth in call problem

I've tried all treble pie roms and in all are the same problem with Bluetooth in call sound. First I thougt it's a problem with my elephone u pro, but in the meanwhile I've recognized that the same problem exist in many phones.
I'll hope that we can support the developers with a payment if they fix this problem.
I am willing to pay up to 50$ if someone is able to fix this problem for the elephone u pro.
If there's someone else who wants to get the problem solved then please write here your payment offer.
But it would be a shame if people make an offer here and do not stick to it later.
Root first, then go to Vendor/Overlay/BluetoothResCommon.apk
delete it,then reboot,

1. You have to extract stock /vendor/etc/audio/audio_policy_configuration.xml and delete A2DP related section like this:
https://github.com/PixelExperience-...mmit/977444af69f10fc135d07e19f1e5f1183e73e9ff
then replace it (by root explorer or creating magisk module).
2. You also need to change /system/bin/rw-system.sh.
Please delete
Code:
mount -o bind /mnt/phh/empty_dir /vendor/etc/audio || true
and save.
NOTE: This works only on CAF based custom roms. It doesn't work on AOSP.

Great job! Bluetooth In call is working.
I'll think it's not your development but for your know how to, I've send you 15 Euro.
Do you know also how to get Bluetooth audio music working?
By any chance did you get fully functional Bluetooth on the gsi rom or anyone else?

 @AndroPlus has already fixed in call and may be he's on the way to solve audio also.
Has it been rectified in all builds
so is it safe to say that we can install the latest version of GSI provided by rom providers made in and released in march.
I would like to know that before i go ahead and transition over from stock to custom rom... mainly called PixelDust Pie rom version march

No, the fix needs device specific path and not all GSI has it.
I have the Razer Phone and have got either audio working or in call but never both... I am in the process of going through both audio routing files and see if I can combine them to get it to work, but I haven't messed with Android in years so it's taking more time than I anticipated to get caught up on all the changes you guys have made. The last time I built a rom was when treble was just on the discussion table. It really amazes me this bug has gone on this long, but maybe there's more to it than I'm seeing so far. I have seen some good devs working on this.
Enlighten me Please

Hey @AndroPlus , could you possibly explain how to go about it. I would appreciate the help. I have got a nokia 7 plus with pixel dust pie rom on latest version running. Where and what do i need to do to get it up and running on my phone. I need to get in call bluetooth running. Thats the only thing stopping me from using this amazing blazing rom
Bluetooth music also does not work with me. However bluetooth calls work, so its weird that music/audio is not working.
Bluetooth music also does not work for me, but bluetooth calls work fine. I'm using Arrow GSI with Mi Mix 3.

Btw do you have any idea how to control the led colours?
i still have no bluetooth calling on Mi Mix 3 on the @AndroPlus rom's so his solution definitely doesn't work for all devices.

[FIX] [AOSP] Improve audio recording in video and calls

After devs changed fluencetype to fluence in build.prop for low incall volume, noise cancellation is so agressive. This fix solve distortion that you can find in your recordings.
- Tested in firmware 9.5.30
- Tested in Pixel Experience CAF and Vortex
Instructions:
- Download NoiseSuppresionMod.zip
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash NoiseSuppresionMod.zip
- Reboot to system
It MAYBE works in MIUI.
If devs want to fix it in their ROMs, they need to replace audio_platform_info and mixer_paths in /vendor/etc
Thanks to @Zile995 . He solved it in mido and helped me to do it in lavender.
Also, thanks to @letsmakecakes. He helped me to make flashable zip.

whats this for?
Wish I had this a couple of weeks ago when I was at Primavera Sound festival! All the audio of the videos i recorded was terrible :/
Anyway, can anyone confirm this works on stock (rooted) MIUI? Thanks!
I flashed it but have yet to test it. Before flashing this I made a phone call and I could barely hear the person on the phone. That's odd because my hearing is amazing.
Thanks for the amazing work!! Nothing try in miui stock?

Hello to all,
Thank you for your work.
Someone knows if on Lineage Rom it works this patch?
Thank you in advance.
Thanks for the mod, it's working on Lineage but the recorded audio is quite low in terms of volume.
If it could be possible to increase it a little bit at least it would be perfect, thanks again!
Hello, i got some questions about this patch:
1. Do i need to root my device to apply it (flash it)?
2. Someone already tried on a Stock ROM with MIUI?
3. Sorry for asking this but, can someone explain thoroughly the process for applying this kind of fixes/patches?
Thank you friends.

Not necessarily, but you have to unlock it in order to have a custom recovery
2. Someone already tried on a Stock ROM with MIUI?
Not that I know of
3. Sorry for asking this but, can someone explain thoroughly the process for applying this kind of fixes/patches?
It's in the OP, as I already said you must have a custom recovery which means unlocked bootloader

On Pixel Experience Official this is stoping the video (and sometimes closing the camera) while recording. How do i do to uninstall it?
On Pixel Experience doesn't work, the recorded audio is still awful. And mostly it stops the video recording.
Yesterday I was watching a video recorded with the smartphone and I noticed that the microphones are very sensitive.. maybe they're simply bad adjusted and all we need to do is to lower the gain a little bit.. I don't know. Still hoping for a V2 for this mod.
Tried on Havoc OS. Everything became much worse after flashing this "improvement", nobody could make out what I was saying.
As factory reset did not work and there is no option to uninstall the mod I had to do flashing of a new os with dalvik, cashe and data wiping.
So be aware!
Thanks! This mod work fine in Lineage OS 16 for Redmi Note 6 Pro. The mic volume was very low. Now is great.
Not working in Havoc 3.4. Made the situation worse. No option to uninstall it.
Doing reinstall of entire ROM now.

Question Viper 4 Android and Pixel 6 Pro

Has anyone gotten Viper 4 Android to work with the pixel 6 pro yet? If not, are there alternatives? Any guides to doing this would be appreciated! I searched but didn't find much.
Android 12 (Viper4Android)
Has anyone managed to get Viper4Android working on the latest beta of Android 12? The usual methods don't work (makes sense, since its a new OS). Just curious. I like Android 12 so far, but might roll back to 11 if I can't get Viper going...

I was referring to the method linked in Post #2 where they said they changed their kernel to permissive. The Android 12 fix file is from another thread which you started and posted the file it. You might want to add a link to your post so people know what "fix" file you are talking about since it's not in this thread, lest people might get confused about what you are talking about.

Viper4Android for Google Pixel 6/6 Pro and most other devices on Android 12... It the time of testing this Method, it worked in November 2021 and December 2021 builds for my Google Pixel 6.... 1) Make sure your BL is unlocked and you are...

I installed by using the method I had to do for OP8T. Install Audio_Modification_Library Magisk Module (DO NOT REBOOT) -> Install Viper Magisk Module (DO NOT REBOOT) -> Open Viper App (this forces a reboot) -> Remove Audio_Modification_Library. It works great for me in apps like AIMP, but in apps like YouTubeVanced have never worked for me.

Strange it doesn't process with YouTubeVanced for you. It should. Have you tried giving this mod a shot?
EDIT: Actually I think the version located at John Fawkes site is newer than the XDA one, so adding that link.
Audio Compatibility Patch (Formerly Universal deep_buffer Remover) [MMTEx]
This fixes music and streaming apps (Spotify, Pandora, etc) that aren't processing audio effects for various equalizer applications through the modification of audio policy. Starting with v1.6 USB_policy patcher (upp) and Notification_helper...

@Lughnasadh I'm not currently using the Compatibility Patch. It's mainly because last time I did on the OnePlus phones, my Bluetooth audio would get fubar'd and require a Factory Reset to fix.
Thanks to the community, the Viper4android works for me on Pixe6 PRO, BUT I am unable to activate any VIPER-DDC , Headset correction profiles loading takes no effect, tried a few I see them active but no change in sound. Previously my OnePlus 8Pro worked fine with the same version (Android 12). Does anyone experience similar issue ? Can you please try and let me know.

I don't have answer for your question, perhaps go to their Telegram group to ask for help as you may have more chance there.
I do have something for your consideration. I used V4A for longer than I can remember but it must be over 10 years. However, seems the developer has already quitted the project for quite sometime, the driver has never been updated in the past 7-8 years, we are lucky that it is still working with A12. But everything has an end, I tried it on A13 Beta and it doesn't work with it. If you search the web, you properly going to find that so far no one is able to make it work with A13. The A13 is already in beta 4 and official release could be sometime in next month, unless you are going to give up to update to A13, you better start to find something to replace V4A, my choice is JamesDSP but you may find something better suit your needs.
I prefer presets because I don't know what I'm doing. I ended up moving to PowerAmp and am usually pleased with the sound. If only the developer would enable roor features, man that would be cool.
Thanks acwcanada for the suggestion. I looked at the thread and so far may stick with Android 12 (those crazy audiophiles ) because I could not find 2 key features available in Viper4Android.
1. Headphone frequency response correction (VIPER-DDC or AutoEQ in Wavelet). This feature does not even work for me in Pixel 6 pro A12L , workaround: install wavelet and use its AutoEQ feature.
2. Dynamic System feature of Viper4Android creates bass subharmonics using reference frequencies and algorithm (selectable by choosing headphone type), so it can inject them in the music making it feel much richer and restores lack of low frequencies without "booming" effect created by other bass boosters. So far nothing in this word can beat this Viper4Andoid's feature.
Some good news folks: Viper4Android and Wavelet can be stacked and work in tandem .
Perhaps going to write James to consider the above, unless I missed it.
Cheers and thanks Team !
