Yes I have. V4A also known as Viper 4 Android is supported by our device (at least it worked for me. NO GUARANTEE). It works about the same as Dolby Atmos. Its as usual a personal preference thingy, just like some people enjoy a Playstation and others the Xbox.
Besides that there are other packs out here on XDA that might work but they have not been explicitly tested or anything. Go and use the search if you want to experiment a little but remember, ALWAYS Backup all your stuff.

did you manage to get viper working with the stock music player?

Yes I did but only with the chinese Version. That also has been with the old Android (5.1.1). With the european version of the music player it had issues and didnt do anything to the sound.
It also worked with Google Play Music, Spotify, Phonograph and the HTC Stock Music app that I am using now on 6.0 with Dolby Atmos.
Dolby Atmos has always been my goto software because it worked with all tested versions by me and honestly I have been through many versions on the P8 Lite.

[Q] Srs wow hd?

Hi everyone,
The phone's spec sheet says that it has SRS wow hd. Any idea how I can use it? To clarify, what I'm looking for is something like the control center application which typically comes with the srs stuff. It allows the user to set various parameters of the srs algorithm. Any help would be great.
Regards,
Soumen
currently it can only be accessed via the stock music app and while playing a song..

It can be used with any music app that uses android's stock codecs. If you use music applications such as poweramp (that rely on ffmpeg) you wont be able to use srs wow hd effects, unless the dev makes it happen
I'm using dzo's Oxygen based Gingerbread ROM for the phone. I cant seem to be able to find them in the stock music player in that. Is it only available in the stock ROM?

I'm not using oxygen atm (will flash it later this day), but they should be located under the equalizer presets in the stock music app.
Okay, Im pretty sure the ROM did something to the music player. The player now shows only 4 Tabs - Artists, Albums, Songs, and Playlists. Cant seem to find Equalizer settings anywhere among the options on those screens. On my previous phone(galaxy fit), the equalizer settings used to come somewhere there. Any other music players that support this feature?
the music app in oxygen rom does not have the equaliser feature..

You have to start to play a song, then you will see the equalizer settings

Install the latest version of PlayerPro (2.09). There is an option there to enable the SRS WOW HD effects. Just tested it on MIUI rom.
Can SRS WOW be activated in the official 2.3 (28.12.2011) firmware?
In the settings of the stock music app the equalizer option is inactive.
2.3.5 official, yes I'm using it now.

That's good news!
I'm using 2.3.5 official. However, in the stock music app when I go to Settings I can see an Equalizer option, but pressing it has no effect. Is this the only way to get to the SRS option and if so why might it not be working for me?
Had to register, been stalking this forum over a year...
Anyway, with this new android 2.3.5, you can't change equalizer without headphones. And when you take your headphones off, equalizer turns back to normal. And that is a big loss for those who listens to music from backspeaker. You can't have SRSWowHD if you're using the backspeaker (with that erm, stock player? Can it even be said as stock player?)
That's annoying. SRSWowHd worked really well with the speaker in 2.2.
Would Huawei have deliberately disabled adjusting the equaliser in 2.3.5? Could a third-party app re-enable it?

I agree that first thing :/
And what comes for that second thing, I've been trying to find solution... still with no luck
yes, its a shame, but i mostly use the srs wow pre equalizer

[Q] Viper 4 android not working?

Hey guys! I have a Galaxy S4 on 4.2.2 that i have rooted and used TrulyClean v1.6 (Hardcore version) on!
I recently got the tip to try and install viper4android since it was better than the beats EQ mod i had,
I found out that the same issue I had with the beats eq mod I had with viper4android too.
Whenever I listen to songs in Google Music I cant just change tracks because when the next
track is playing there are no FX at all, just the stock sound! sometimes i gotta let a song repeat 2-3
times before this happens, it is REALLY frustrating and annoying!
I dont know if it's because I have to delete music FX or get another music player,
Whatever it is I know i'd appreciate some help!
Thanks in advance, cheers!

I don't know. I think it's a drivers problem. You should unistall the first one and reinstall it according to snapdragon cpu. I followed entire guide but my audio didn't change. Only thing we could do, is to wait for new version.

V4A is awesome with all players except stock..I'm also interested in the fix with stock player..
anyone got VIPER working properly on their i9505?
V4a works fine with mine.. I use poweramp and play music.. However i can not get it to work with samsung player..
I found that mine works from time to time (using Google Music).. the first track doesn't get processed but as the second song starts v4a kicks in sometimes.. I can't really use other players as my music is stored in the Google cloud. .
I went nuts on installing this.
Its great and truly the greatest sound but its tempremental I can get it to work with stock player and google music but it wont.be constantly working.
If one works the other doesnt.

I'm about to give up on viper Audio because it isn't working on my device!
Am i missing something?

Having the same issue on sacs custom 4.4 v3. It has worked on all after sacs roms but not the 4.4 for whatever reason. I've tried evening I can think of to Foxx over the last few weeks and still no successand I'm really missing viper its by far the best out there. Having the same problem in my Windows 8.1 machine as well.

I have a similar problem with the Allview V1 Viper(a.k.a. Gionee Elife E3/Blu Life Play). I have a custom ROM, Xperia 4.2.2 made by Orochi, and it came with V4A preinstalled. I set everything, I launch walkman, and start a song. For 10 secs, the sound is great, the effects definitely work, then it reverts to stock...
What can I do?
Deezer and Viper4Android
Well, I have a Samsung I9082L and a Xperia C2304, but I'm facing problems with Deezer when using Viper to enhance my Xperia sound. I don't know if it happens with all Xperia phones, but Deezer uses my Xperia audio enhancer as default. I discovered that Xperia audio enhancer and Viper4Android conflict when using Deezer. So I tried disabling Sony audio enhancer (SoundEnhancement.apk) and it happens that I was right... now Viper works as a charm for my Xperia. So, for the people who are having problems using Deezer or Spotify, verify if Deezer uses phone's audio enhancer as default and try disabling it. Do not uninstall it! Just disable at the application options or, if not available, freezing with Link2SD or TitaniumBackup. Hope it helps.

DOLBY ATMOS - what is use of this app and how to turn it ON while listening to music?

I use PowerAmp to play all my music. I found Dolby Atmos app on my Axon 7. But I could not turn it ON while my Poweramp player is playing. Also what is use of Dolby Atmos and how it works ?
Atmos is just a software eq. You can just stick with PowerAmp eq if you want. If you have FLAC music and want to use the hi-fi DAC, you will have to use the ZTE music app. The DAC doesn't work outside of the app from what I can tell.

That's software equalizer. Hi-fi DAC is hardware component.

Checking MusicFX means it will use the phone's built-in EQ which is the Dolby Atmos one which should use the Hi-Fi DAC.
EDIT: Ok I guess I was wrong, but it is possible to use the Hi-Fi DAC with Poweramp 3.0 Alpha! See HERE

Poweramp Alpha does work with Dolby Atmos. You just need to put Poweramp in Hi Res Audio Output through the settings.

Nope, just have the installed version from the Play Store. I'll get the alpha, thanks for the response.
Am I the only one that can't get the tracks to be listed in listed order in the stock music app? No matter what I do or which section I choose to view the tracks, they're always listed alphabetically.
Got burned by Lenovo's A10-70 tablet that also have implemented Dolby ATMOS. That tablet sound will get screwed up every time I loaded Poweramp normal Play Store version. Even disable Direct Volume Control in Poweramp does not help. Please tell me if both normal and alpha version of Poweramp works fine with this phone since I am very much interested. I am also not familiar with ZTE software update policy. Not sure if it will get updated as often and as long like Google Nexus phones.

Shuttle (and Shuttle+) work well with Dolby Atoms, just disable the built in EQ.
DON'T use "n7 Player" - Before their update, it messed up Dolby and I had to reset my phone twice (a 3rd time was my fault). After their latest update, it renders Dolby Atoms useless and when you try to enable it, it restarts the phone (had to reset my phone twice). Thanks to n7 (my favorite player) not playing well with Dolby Atmos, I've had to reset my phone a total of 5 times since getting it 3 weeks ago.

Headset HiFi and Dolby Atmos works with my music player of choice as well: Clean Music. Probably because it's just a simple GUI (entire player is less than 1MB) and leaves all the processing to the system.
Okay apart from Poweramp and builtin music player - what are other good options to make use of best available audio on board with Axon 7 ?

Well Spotify seems to work well for me. It probably doesn't use the Hi-Fi chip but with Dolby enabled the sound is very nice.
Call me stupid or lazy but the volume is tiny compared to my old LG G2. I have to turn it all the way up to 70%. Is this the case for you guys?
Hello
I tried to use poweramp, but this isn´t dolby Atmos enabled, but, I ´m using Jetaudio plus... and this works PERFECT, remember that this sound app was designed for use in high -end mp3 players ( like cowon), and i can say with full confidence that works great with dolby atmos, boosting very well the music in the speakersphone, in the bluetooth car stereo and headphones ( wired and wireless)... this app bringing bass optimization ( in the original speakersphone the bass is very poor), let me know your experience, i´ll try to help

i love when someone expresses gratitude with an aid. The post was edited, It was with pleasure!
Someone on the Zte forums said you need to disable direct volume control and BT direct volume control in the settings. In order to get power amp to work with Dolby.
And I can confirm that I am able to use the hifi setting and Dolby with Tidal. Which actually makes the music sound better to me than my dp-x1 onkyo player, which makes me mad cause that thing cost me 800$ lol

May be. It depends on the compatibility.
For example, viper stop working after installing this modification. But if you flash Amplio at first, and then install Viper everything will be ok. I guess same situation with others well known sound mods.
Amplio deleting AudioFX MusicFX etc. Amplio changing some system files. You can unzip archive and see, which files are changing.
Unfortunately my English not so good, and I cannot tell about this mod better.
Just backup and try.
I use this mod only with Neutron player and Sennheiser CX400 I, and no other mods needed for me.

Where did you see words, that sound stay perfect?
Just better, not perfect.
Result depends on the headphones, the music style, your own perception of sounds.
