This module allows the earpiece to be used as speaker, and mods the microphone pickup when recording video. Audio from earpiece might not be as clear as main speaker. This module was tested on Oxygen OS 4.5.5 version, but should work on other versions as well.
This module was originally created by @magura320 for OnePlus 3T. I have used this on OnePlus 3T and now ported to OnePlus 5. This is my first mod on XDA, so please be patient with any issues. Let me know if I have missed any credits and would be happy to add them.
Please visit OnePlus 3T thread for OP 3T downloads..

Is there any possibility to hardware damage to the earspeaker?
Thanks for providing this mod!!! Works great!!

Yes there absolutely is, have seen these in the past on other singular speaker devices and although they work amazingly well there is always a risk.
What does "mods the microphone pickup when recording video" mean exactly?
For those of us that use Viper to enhance the phone speaker, this might be a really bad idea. I can just see the tiny earpiece speaker dying under the extra boost given by other sound mods. This is a great idea though and I would love to use it. Is there a way to regulate the level of sound out of that top speaker or is it just opening the flood gates and using the same power as the real phone speaker?
Awesome, i miss this dual sound mod on my S7 Edge, now i retrieved this mod on my OP5 yeahhhhhh
Thanks !

I tested it and the earpiece is actually softer than the speaker. But you can definitely hear it when watching videos.

That's a good thing cause it may damage if it's too loud.
Very well works without problems. I'm excited
Thanks for that. Working without a problem, using magisk version.

Perhaps it means record in stereo?
Will the same magisk mod work with OP3 as for op5 since there is no seperate link provided?
I did install this. I'm still apprehensive about turning it up too loud but it works well. It doesn't give off a ton of extra sound but it does sound more balanced which is nice.
Can u also make for Leeco le max 2
Is the stock mixer_paths_tasha for op5 only or both 3t nd 5? It'd be great if we manually can edit the mixer_paths section if that stereo editing section is reveled.

I've purchased op5 just now and I'm in no mood to install TWRP now but still wanna try this so can you make it available for flashing it to the stock recovery

Without flashing TWRP you can't have root. My understanding is you need root or TWRP to install this. Pretty sure (like 99.9999%) that you can't flash stuff like this from stock recovery... Otherwise what would be the point of TWRP in the first place.

Recently purchased one and bar the sound issue I am pretty much happy with it
The problem with the sound is that it is so low! I used to have an Xperia which had decent sound - on this you need to put it to the maximum settings for it to be anything like reasonable (and that still is not great)
I was beginning to think I had a dodgy hand set, but a friend purchased one too and that is exactly the same. Or is it just unlucky to have two that are broke?
I downloaded Volume Booster GOODEV, which helps a little when playing videos / output and I have also messed about with the Dolby and graphic equalizer settings
Just surprised that no reviews mentioned this issue - which made me suspect I had a broken device until I also heard my friends.
Any recommendations / any work-rounds / fixes?
Many thanks'
If you have root you can try editing mixer_paths.xml and see if that helps. If the phone has Dolby then make sure to turn off Volume Leveling.

Any idea which values to edit? I have a G6, which I assume will have the same values. I have previously edited the mixer_paths.xml on my Moto E4, but the G6 does not have the same values.
I had the same issue on my moto G6, I rooted the device and installed magisk. Then installed the Ainur Sauron module. It works so good you won't even believe it. There's no UI just install reboot and profit.

After spending a lot of time I created profile with great clear sound for speaker in ViPER4Android.
Only for Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite!
Simple installing guide:
1. Unzip contain of folder ViPER4Audio from archive to folder ViPER4Audio in your internal storage.
2. Press menu button in V4A app and load profile CrystalSpeaker (!maybe you will have to do it twice because of enabling convolver!).
3. Try it and give me some feedbacks.

Im trying this out , thanks for the MiA2L customise V4A . Will give my feedbacks once I tried for few days
I think this is a really good project. The phone sounds like a much more bigger (cheap) bluetooth speaker, but more better than the original speaker sound. I've tried this IRS with my headphones, and that sounds better too.
Thank you for the project!
It works for me yes the sound is clear great job
I have installed V4A FX but it doesn't show up anywhere in the system/apps.
Could you please let me know what selections need to be done during installation (there's quite a few of them).
There's also a different Magisk module called XHiFi but I don't know what's the difference to FX.

You have to install viper4 as system app. You can choose this during the magisk module installation. Try to reinstall with this option. Dont install xhifi

Try loaded it twice (load, unload, load), dont switch convolver. Or you can easily let play music and load/unload/switch simultaneosly in V4A. Check also your driver status in V4A app.
Google play says it can be potentionally harmful, becase the app wasnt install via google play. But dont worry, this is for every root-non-google-play app.
In the end I managed to force v4a to load the profile, thanks.

Hey all moving up from my OP 7 pro to the OP 9 pro. What are all the magisk modules everyone is using on the OP 9 pro.?
1.Anything to force full screen mode on all apps? The settings for full screen apps dont include all the apps im using as some of the developers of the apps havent made it possible I'm sure.
2. I know Android 11 made changes to the navigation hide feature, is there anything that can be used to hide the navigation bar, and no i don't like navigation gestures option
Right now i am using
1. Substratum
2. Systemless Hosts
3. Full Dolby
One app im using that i have used since my 6T that isn't a magisk module but i cant live without it is a Plus Beat and it still works perfect on my 9pro
Thanks for the suggestions, cant wait to hear what everyone is using!!

What about Energy Bar? I'm currently using this on my OP9 Pro. As I type this I also noticed the same developer has a version which puts a battery ring around the punch-hole camera if you prefer that sort of thing (I might try it myself).

Another way to do that is to uninstall the system YT app with a debloater tool (I use debloater magisk module for that) and then use Vanced app to install. Just throwing it out there, since the Vanced magisk module isn't supported anymore and may not work on future versions.

Hello there.
I've been trying to get Viper4Android to work and tried the most common solutions (none worked yet)
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...
forum.xda-developers.com
-> manually edit /data/adb/modules/ViPER4AndroidFX/post-fs-data.sh didn't work
-> using the automatic editing via magisk module didn't work
-> trying to use JamesDSP/audio compatibility library in between reboots installed/deinstalled didn't work
I also tried the "newest" fix version from the v4a Telegram group.
Any time I use a pair of bluetooth headsets, the options menu just states "abnormal" and v4a doesn't work.
Strangely enough, if I use the phone speakers and have NO bluetooth headset enabled, the processing works normally.
Anyone found a solution yet?
I plan to use this thread as a discussion first and once we found a viable solution that can be reproduced, I will edit this post to a guide. In the following spoiler I'll progressively add more information that will later replace the main text.

1. Purpose
This guide serves as an installation method to get Android4Viper working on a Google Pixel 6 Pro (as of 12/2021). If not stated explicitly otherwise, do not assume that this method will work on another Android 12 device.
2. Installation method
3. Download
Viper4Android cannot be downloaded via xdalabs anymore. The installer (old 2020 version) can be either found here https://zackptg5.com/android.php#viper or as a magisk module in the new unofficial repo via Fox's Magisk Manager Module https://github.com/Fox2Code/FoxMagiskModuleManager (John abandonded the official Magisk Repo as of 12/2021).
4. Now that I have Viper4Android running... where do I find the right settings for my specific pair of headphones?
For a baseline, you can visit the GitHub page of the project AutoEQ and find the settings that fit your need https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/tree/master/results/crinacle
There is a general thread for Viper4Android profiles that are being shared by the community (sometimes with attached DDC & Convolver files) https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/read-op-first-official-viper4android-audio-profiles.2324454/
For a generic IRS file ("DDC") you can visit this website https://github.com/Codejune/viper4android-eq/tree/master/Kernel
If you want a specific DDC file tailored to your headphone, there are several XDA threads to chose from, where members of this community take the time and effort it takes to create those - usually these files are sold, you can expect about ~ 3€ per headphone IRS file pack. There are some floating around github or other parts of the net, but those are not always "official" and might have been shared without consent of the original creator. One creator of these files that offers them for free can be found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...filters-2016-06-05-5-new-hifi-models.2372750/
For a Convolver file you can also search for them in several XDA threads (usually for free, DDC files are usually the ones being sold) - for example:

I just tried it out and deactivated HD audio. Now it works! Marvelous! Thank you.
But... now I don't have LDAC anymore, that kinda defeats the purpose of v4a, since I want maximum music quality (I've been using both the Sony WF-XM4 (earbuds) and "normal" XM4 (NC headphones), both which rely on LDAC. Is there another workaround? Or a way to force LDAC even though the option is deactivated?

I don't know of a workaround for that, sorry.
Alright, so I narrowed it down a bit.
The problem are both the bitrate and samplerate.
The maximum that this V4A fix currently supports is
48kHz <- down from 96 kHz
32bits/sample <- remains
330kbps <- down from 990kbps
That is still a step up from SBC (44.1Khz 16bit) - ergo if I tune that down in developer options, I can still use LDAC, even though with a reduced bitrate. I should mention that I also installed the Audio Modification Library and Ainur Narsil prior to my most previous attempt to get LDAC working, so that might be of importance.

I took a look at your second file and that's the exact same post-fs-data.sh edit that I've already talked about in the OP post. I guess your method is the same, even though you have linked a handy app instead of manual editing (credits go to Typhus_ I guess)
I did not use any ViperFX "fix" version though. Can you confirm that your version supports high quality codec/more than 48 Khz/330kbps?

1. Install Ainur Narsil in Magisk
2. Install AML in Magisk

Wavelet is a glorified Equalizer, whilst Viper4Android is in a class of its own, enabling enthusiasts to go above and beyond to get the best music quality possible by using
- custom tailored DDCs for your specific headphone (you can ez buy headset correction IRS' in certain Telegram groups, make your own or have luck finding ones...)
- Custom tailored Convolvers (personally I'd suggest to give TubeAmplifier & Technics Preamp Extreme v.2 a first try to get a baseline, and then try out others to see if it fits your headphone pair better)
- Decent dynamic & bass system
- Clarity settings, auditory protection, et cetera...
V4A can turn a pair of headphones into a stellar object of beauty, whilst Wavelet will simply elevate your experience by ~20%.
If you can, try it out. The experience (IF ! you tailor it properly) is extraordinary. I'd also always suggest to get the best possible results by tailoring your settings according to your headset, e.g. get a baseline with
AutoEq/results/crinacle at master · jaakkopasanen/AutoEq
Automatic headphone equalization from frequency responses - AutoEq/results/crinacle at master · jaakkopasanen/AutoEq

Viper 2.7.2.1 is working fine for me on my 6pro. I have zero problems with it.
Steps I took:

I have the latest canary magisk, latest December patch.

Can you confirm that this method (without manually editing any files) enables high quality Codecs/bitrate?
It's still relatively unclear if this is a Android 12 thing, a Pixel 6 problem or if it's caused by Viper4Android. What is clear is that it was possible in the past (I had three Pixels, was never an issue) to use high quality codecs (LDAC) with full bandwidth, meaning
Samplerate of 96.0 kHz
32 bits/sample
990kbps (the latter will probably never work, since the P6 has a bit of bluetooth connection problems, meaning after 660 the phone will only produce noise/can't get a solid connection - hopefully Google can fix this)

Tbh I only used V4A to apply custom made .irs profiles from oratory1990. Same can be done in wavelet. Nothing more needed for my Sennheiser HD800S, HD600 and Momentum 3.
But yes, V4A has tons of more options. I just never needed those.
What I miss in wavelet are automatic profile switches based on output (speaker,bluetooth,cable).

Idk man it works fine for me for the most part. I can confirm that Bluetooth randomly drops out about once a day, although, I had probs with the with the stock EQ as well, like the preset would just 'cut out'
It's definitely a lot better than stock. Bass is good. No complaints here
Edit. Disregard this post. Thanks

I just tried it out and deactivated HD audio. Now it works! Marvelous! Thank you.
But... now I don't have LDAC anymore, that kinda defeats the purpose of v4a, since I want maximum music quality (I've been using both the Sony WF-XM4 (earbuds) and "normal" XM4 (NC headphones), both which rely on LDAC. Is there another workaround? Or a way to force LDAC even though the option is deactivated?

I just did some testing with my Pixel Buds A-series and I have V4A working via Bluetooth (as well as JamesDSP) with HD audio enabled. I am able to choose my Codec (which the best for my buds are AAC, unfortunately. No LDAC support). However, I do have ACP installed. That may be why it's working with HD audio enabled. Might want to give it a try.
I have V4A, JamesDSP, AML & ACP installed.
When installing ACP, I chose these options:
1. Skip audio_policy patching?=Yes
2. Skip notification_helper remover?=Yes
3. Skip usb policy patching for usb dacs?=No
4. Use lib workaround?=No
Maybe this will help...
? for everyone who has it "working":
a) do you have to enable legacy?
and if not
b) is it stable, or does the status go to abnormal after X number of songs, etc?
I've tried every method out there and since Android 10 I haven't gotten V4A to work consistently without enabling legacy, and I don't want keep beating my head against the wall if legacy mode is the only stable option.

Thanks. Edited my post to add Legacy.
