How to install Viper4Android on Android 6.0, 7.0 and 7.1 - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm Posting this because of all the confusion I see on the different forums on how to get this working. This WILL WORK as I've personally tested on three different versions of Android on the Nexus 6p, Samsung S3 and HP Touchpad.
The underlined steps are the gist of the process....
How to Install Viper4Android 2.5.0.5 on 6.x 7.0, 7.1
Download ViPER4Android_2.5.0.5_guitardedhero.zip
here's a personal google drive link
DOWNLOAD IT HERE https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3qV-scfklSkZEg0MDdZY3J4ZXM/view?usp=sharing
Boot into TWRP recovery and install/flash the ViPER4Android_2.5.0.5_guitardedhero.zip from recovery.
Reboot phone.
Use a file explorer with root access (Root explorer)
Go to the /vendor/etc/ directory on the device and rename audio_effects.conf to audio_effects.conf.bak (IF THE FILE EXISTS)
Open ViPER4Android FX
You may get a notification to install V4A driver. Select YES.
It may take some time to install V4A driver, it's doing its job and will finish soon. If Android gives an error that the app has stuck/stopped, select the wait option, don't force close it.
Make SURE that you've given Viper4Android Storage permissions
or you won't be able to load or save profiles
Check under Driver Status (in Viper4Android) to make sure it's enabled and processing. Like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3qV-scfklSkbGJMb0JkOWdwX0E/view?usp=sharing
Once the Driver installed message shows on screen, reboot.
CREDIT TO guitardedhero and androiding.how for making it simple and me for being pissed at the confusion to get this simple mod working for folks.
Most of this guide's steps were modified/originated from http://androiding.how/install-viper4android-nougat/
I attempted to simplify the steps because of all the confusion I see on forums, and make the instructions less wordy and more precise.
This works for you please just give me a thanks I've been on here for too many damn years to not have more than 17 thanks. Good luck everybody enjoy Android it's awesome

Can I get a copy of your audio.effect file? I don't have one I deleted it by mistake trying to edit it. Thanks

Never needed to do anything with that file other than rename it before installing the Viper4android driver. If it's a fresh flash you should be good to go. Or you could just reflash the rom on top to fix any weird stuff you might have done trying to get it to work. It's really not that difficult to get this mod installed/set up.
My current ROM doesn't even have that file in vendor/etc if that helps.

Yea I tried reflash on top but the file is completely gone it doesn't come back I just need it to edit it to .bak or I don't need that file at all?

I don't think you need it at all. But always do backups before messing with things.

It should, if not do a backup of your Rom, your apps and a backup with your launcher's backup utility and there's no worries. Then do a clean flash of the rom.
I just switched to Nova launcher from Apex and it will basically restore your widget locations even..it really makes it easy to clean flash. I'll dirty flash sometimes but if there's any funny business, back up and get a good clean rom flash going..

You should provide a download link. Had to search a bit to find it.

What is different about this and just installing deuteronomy zip https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862677226
I got it also working by doing the same as you describe here?!

The package I use is much simpler. It was provided by guitaredhero and doesn't include all of the other config files. I've not had luck with those nor tested those. The ARISE ZIPS simply haven't worked for me. If those work for you by all means use them. The smaller package has worked for me on numerous devices and android builds.
Simpler is better in my opinion. The old viper zips didn't require 20 + files to function.
Good luck!

Nougat 7.1.1 latest build nmf26f

Hi, just sharing. Installing viper mod has been slightly tricky for me since nougat. I like Leviticus 1.3 and have it running with nmf26f. I always install viper after setting everything up and doing a back up since it's near impossible to get rid of the files once installed.
1. Install busy box stericson. Reboot.
2. Rename audio effects.con.bak Reboot.
3. Finally install 1.3.
4. Install black player from play, insert headphones and press play.
5. Open viper app and hooray, no drivers not installed message.
If I do not reboot after every step, it's almost guaranteed.
When enable for first time, music will disappear for a sec before hearing a slight difference. Adjust to your liking from there. I noticed if the music doesn't mute for that sec, Dolby atmos will just be lifeless when enabled or when switching to speaker mode and back to headset, no processing after.
Really weird.
Also, if developer options not enabled before installation, drivers won't install.
Learned from plenty of wipes and restoration.

Alternatively, there is a way to do this the systemless mode using Magisk.
Just install the Viper4Android module thats on the Magisk Manager app,
then I made a module that changes the "audio_policy_configuration.xml" file for the one I modded, using this reference http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68859212&postcount=23811
It works for all except on soundlcloud.
I have 2 diferent modules for 7.0 and 7.1.1 stock images if you need them

Basically magisk is similar to Xposed in that it can add mods to your ROM without having to flash entire Roms.
Magisk does not touch system, so magisk modules are systemless. Read the forum to find out
You basically flash magisk.zip and Magisk PHH Superuser in recovery,
Then install PHH Superuser app from play store
Then magisk manager apk from XDA
But please read first

Thanks. I flashed superSU to root via twrp earlier on. Don't know what it means to flash it systemless. If I flash PHH superuser, will I be able to continue to use chainfire's flash fire to install official ROMs later? Been using it to upgrade since 7.0. I've used xposed mods a lot previously, so this magisk manager is like xposed app where you can download modules and install and enable them?

[ROM] LG V10 H901-10c Debranded, Debloated, Deodexed ROM - Clean & Stable

Debranded, Debloated, Deodexed H901-10c ROM for T-Mobile LG V10 (LG-H901) - Clean & Stable
Thanks go to @Rydah805 for deodexing the stock ROM and being my guinea pig while I was fixing all the broken features.
Thanks also go to @KOLIOXDA for being my guinea pig while troubleshooting installation issues.
Features:
WiFi Calling works with Xposed (even in Airplane Mode)
Second screen works with Xposed (no more force-closes during calls)
No spyware (Adapt Client and Carrier IQ removed)
No T-Mobile apps
No Google apps (except Play Store, Search, Text-to-Speech, and Google Play Services)
Stock LG boot and shutdown animations
No boot sound (boots silently)
No Chrome customizations (Chrome homepage no longer forced to t-mobile.com)
Stock recovery restore disabled (does not overwrite TWRP on reboot)
External storage permissions fix (all apps can write to MicroSD card)
WiFi connectivity fix by @ZDeuce2
AOSP Emoji font
Over 100 additional alarm, ringtone, and notification sounds from Nexus and Samsung phones
Busybox 1.24.1
SuperSU v2.65 stable
Stock 10c kernel and boot image
Download (built Feb. 08, 2016): https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=FE4478E2ABDFD5FC!1082&authkey=!AMAKMBsK8gCEhH0&ithint=file,zip
Changes in this build: Updated SuperSU to 2.65 stable.
Before you install, read below:
Safe to install over stock ROM (odexed or deodexed), no need to factory-reset, unless you're compelled to do so by your inner demons.
Compatible with Xposed v79-sdk22-arm64 and later (sdk22-arm64 ONLY). Do NOT install any earlier versions or other variants of the Framework. You must use Xposed Installer 3.0 alpha 4.
Compatible with P_Toti's G4TweaksBox.
Compatible with the LG Apps Theme Engine.
The T-Mobile Device Unlock app does not work on this ROM and is not included. The Play Store version does not work, either. To SIM-unlock your phone, flash the stock ROM, unlock (SIM-unlock is forever and not ROM-dependent), then flash my ROM.
To get back Google and T-Mobile (except Device Unlock) apps, install them from the Play Store. They all work. They were removed because system apps are not Greenifiable, plus they were causing problems when deodexed.
If you use an ad blocker that modifies your hosts file (such as AdAway), you must reapply your ad-blocking filters as this ROM overwrites your customized hosts file with a stock hosts file.
Do NOT install the "Second Screen Fix" ZIP, second screen works fine in this ROM with and without Xposed. The "Second Screen Fix" is only for odexed ROMs and will break the second screen in this ROM.
This ROM removes any mods you have installed. If you want to reinstall them, they MUST be made for a deodexed stock ROM. Mods for odexed or non-stock ROMs may cause force-closes or a bootloop (flash them at your own risk).
If you're still seeing My T-Mobile, Lookout, or the other apps in your app drawer after installing my ROM, those are updates that have been installed from the Play Store - uninstall them manually like any other user app.
DO NOT USE "FIX PERMISSIONS" IN TWRP. TWRP has no idea what permissions are correct for your phone and will screw them up, resulting in random force-closes in various apps. If you did it, you will need to wipe the entire /data partition (not just factory reset) and reflash the ROM.
If Hangouts crashes when you receive a message or call, it's because it can't find one or more notification or ringtone audio files. Go into your phone's Sound settings and re-select your notification and ringtone sounds, then go into Hangouts settings and re-select the ringtone and notification sound for each type of notification (Hangouts call, Hangouts message, Google Voice call, Google Voice message, and so on).
DO NOT INSTALL PowerNap/WakeLockManager. You will get random reboots and corrupt internal storage, since WakeLockManager randomly hard-crashes the entire ART virtual machine.
To disable the OTA notification: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66304926&postcount=1002
Installation:
WARNING: Do NOT install over a custom ROM. You will get a bootloop/force-close loop.
Copy ZIP file to phone.
Boot into TWRP.
If clean-installing, factory-reset the phone. The installer wipes the system partition automatically.
Install the ZIP.
If you want Xposed, install it now (use only v79-sdk22-arm64 or later).
Reboot.
WARNING: Do NOT install mods for other ROMs on this ROM. You will get a bootloop/force-close loop.
Do not reuse this ROM without my permission - ask first and give credit where it's due!
Enjoy!
PS. I will begin work on the Marshmallow version of my ROM once we have an official way of flashing TWRP on the Marshmallow bootloader. I want the upgrade process to be "Flash the MM KDZ, install TWRP, flash my ROM." Until then, sit tight!
So we don't factory reset or wipe anything? What if we have mods flashed as well?

No Factory Reset OR Wipe,just flash over what you have ATM.
Make a backup of your present set-up before flashing though,just in case something else pops up.
EDIT:
Removed my previous statement regarding mods/add-ons,they'll need to be re-flashed & only de-odexed mods will work per siraltus (ROM OP)

If you have mods flashed, this will remove them, so you will have to reflash them - but only if they're made for a deodexed stock ROM. If they're made for an odexed or custom ROM, they will likely not work, so flash at your own risk.

EDIT:
A flash over a factory reset would probably work,I don't see why it wouldn't,but,it's probably not necessary.
I didn't reset or wipe anything & I'm doing just fine.
I don't have Xposed or any sound mods installed,but,my bet is you shouldn't have any problem flashing over a set-up with Xposed or any other mods.

The ZIP wipes the /system partition automatically so there is no need to wipe it manually.
In fact, if you wipe it manually, the ZIP will fail because TWRP will lock the /system partition for an unspecified amount of time and you will need to reboot TWRP before installing the ZIP.
If you want to clean-install this, then do a factory reset, reboot TWRP, then install this ZIP. I updated instructions in OP to reflect this.
Thanks!! I'll be checking this out shortly!! :highfive:

The ROM is fully compatible with Xposed v79 SDK22 arm64.
No idea about changing the DPI. I don't recommend it as it seems to break things on this phone.
Dear Sir. Altus,
Thank you for the clean upload, and directions. Currently I am running Rydah805's deodexed rom that you were kind enough to work on fixing wifi calling, etc.
My question is: Is this rom different from Rydah805's V. 1.2.2 as stability and features goes? Would you recommend dirty flashing it over his rom?
Thank you all for your hard work and Happy Holidays
Best,
Bob

You're welcome. Yes, you should flash this over his ROM. I took his deodexed base and fixed everything that was broken in it (WiFi, Hotspot, power management, other stuff), and rather than cluttering the old thread, I started a new thread with a 100% tested build and clear instructions. I debloated and debranded it, added a few useful modifications, plus I made about 30ish corrections to broken permissions and SELinux contexts that were likely causing problems in his ROM that we had yet not discovered (the power management stuff was likely not functioning properly due to being denied proper privileges). Read the OP for a list of features and modifications.

You're welcome. There is no need for that, second screen works fine in this ROM with Xposed and without. The "second screen fix" is only required on odexed ROMs. Updated OP to reflect this.
I'm having this weird issue where the screen will become tinted, almost like there's a pop-up or the notification bar is pulled down. It'll usually go away after a second or if I tap somewhere on the screen, but it's kinda frustrating.

[GUIDE] How to install Xposed on OxygenOS 3.5.3 w/TL;DR

Prerequisites:
Make sure your bootloader is unlocked
Make sure you are rooted and have latest SuperSU installed
Make sure you have the latest TWRP installed as your recovery
Once the prerequisites are complete you may proceed at you own risk.
Download Xposed 3.1.1
Apkmirror link
Install Xposed 3.1.1 FIRST
(Do not flash Xposed first or you might bootloop!)
Download the uninstaller (xposed-uninstaller-20160829-arm64.zip) from here.
Direct link
Download the installer (xposed-v87-sdk23-arm64.zip) from here.
Direct link
Transfer the files downloaded above to your phone if downloaded from PC.
(Skip this if all files have been downloaded from your 1+3t)
Reboot to TWRP
(Press the volume up button at boot, scroll down with volume down to "Recovery", press power to select.
Flash xposed-v87-sdk23-arm64.zip
Wipe cache and Dalvik cache to be safe.
Profit! :good: You now have Xposed, but remember, with great power comes great responsibility.
TL;DR for experts:
Get root and TWRP
Install Xposed 3.1.1
Flash xposed-v87-sdk23-arm64.zip
Keep the arm64 uninstaller in case any module(s) misbehave.
Troubleshooting:
If your phone is thrown into bootloop after installing/activating a new module, simply flash the uninstaller downloaded above.
If you guys would like to see a list of modules that work, let me know!
Big thanks to Rovo89, OnePlus and XDA
Here are the modules I use:
Amplify: Battery enhancements
Assistant Enabler: Google Assistant, not just for the Pixel
DisableFlagSecure: Screenshots everywhere
FingerprintEnabler: use fingerprint to unlock after reboot or when a device administrator app locked the phone
GravityBox: Circle battery, center clock, hide Vibrate icon, double tap to sleep status bar, force media volume control.
Notification Slider by Seveilith: change the slider functions (only app that worked for me, others did not overwrite system settings)
RootCloak: hide root from most apps
SNAPPREFS: Snapchat with extras
Vibration Tuner: change the intensity of vibrations
Partial Compatibility:
Android N-ify: quicksettings are not modified, and white screen overlay appears at volume change but notifications do get N-ified (including direct replies!)
Modules I have tried but do not work:
Hide VoLTE Icon
NFCIconRemover
What do you mean by do not flasg xposed first or you might bootloop? You can flash xposrd first as well. But the best wah is always, Install from xposed app itself. No need of flashing anything manually.

My 1+3t bootlooped quite a few times while trying to install Xposed on it. Just giving a heads up and sharing the way that worked for me..
Thanks, that was indeed quite helpful !
I had quite some struggle with getting Xposed (based on systemless Magisk) to work without bootloops - without success.
With your instructions it worked out very nicely, albeit not systemless. But at least I have a working phone
@thesm4rt1 thanks for the guide , any chance to give us a list of the "must have" modules that are working for the OnePlus3T ?
I havent used xposed in years lol. since my Samsung galaxy 3/4 cuz of Knox and locked bl. limited exploits if I remember correctly..

Not all of those work with the 3t. The quicksettings have been modified so Android N-ify mod (for example) does not change them while still changing the notifications.

Not sure about this.I couldn't find it in the flash script.
AFAIK wiping cache/dalvik manually after the zip is required.

[GUIDE] Magisk/Root + Snoke Kernel + Viper4Android on 8.0

UPDATE 2: if you are on the November update already I recommend following this guide that's a lot better than my own and does not rely on TWRP. To get snokes kernel going to use with that guide (you must be on the November update and non-verizon), download this kernel that was posted in this thread by @123SIT.
After gaining root, come back here for the Viper portion.
Hey all. This took me a bit to get up and running on my own phone, but with some help from the XDA community I've now got Magisk/Root, Snoke Kernel, and Viper4Android all working. Since I know other members have to be struggling with the same things, I've decided to post a semi-noob friendly guide.
This worked for my device, I make no guarantees for your own. This guide assumes you have an unlocked bootloader already and therefore are not using a Verizon device. I have not tested this on 8.1, so I can say that this, for now, is only applicable to 8.0. Before starting, please ensure that you have the latest version of adb/fastboot. This is extremely important.
Install the MagiskManager-v5.4.1.apk to your device
Open Magisk Manager on your phone and click install (Not 100% sure if this step is necessary)
Download TWRP alpha here.
Download the Magisk version that @bryantjopplin posted in this thread.
Download the Taimen version of the Snoke.R10.zip kernel found in this thread.
Rename twrp file to twrp.img and open a command prompt/adb window where all of the downloaded files are located.
Rename the Magisk-v14.4.1.zip file to magisk.zip for simplicity
Type the following command in the adb window to reboot to bootloader: adb reboot-bootloader
After it reboots, type the following command to boot into TWRP. Swipe to allow system mods: fastboot boot twrp.img
When TWRP loads, go to Advanced and choose ADB Sideload, swipe to confirm, then type the following command:adb sideload Snoke.R10.zip
After that completes, you'll have to select ADB Sideload again, then type the following command: adb sideload magisk.zip
Reboot. When you go to Magisk Manager, you should see that you now have root.
Go to normal android settings -> Apps & notifications -> See all apps -> Three dot menu button -> show system -> find MusicFx in the list and click it -> Click force stop -> Click disable -> Go to storage -> Clear Data.
Reboot
Download version 2.2 (latest) of viper4Android from this thread. Other members have reported that this module version can now be found in the magisk manager downloads section!
In magisk manager, click menu and go to modules. Click the add button, and select the viper4Android zip you downloaded in the previous step.
After installation completes, reboot.
Open the newly installed Viper4Android app on your phone
Enable master power where you'd like it.
Play some music. Viper4Android should now be working. It could require an additional reboot, song change, or master power toggle in viper to get things processing.
Thanks to @bryantjopplin and @g3v0 for the assistance.
Thanks for the write up. Instead of snokes kernel I used stock and just installed selinux mode changer and set permissive and every step you wrote worked for me. Just thought I would let you know for people who wanted to keep stock.
Good post.
Are Snoke and Viper4Android to fix the audio clicks on some models?
I got root without TWRP. Should I install or or just wait for a more polished version?
But this is not valid for anyone who took the Nov update because TWRP is incompatible, correct?

Viper will make any audio coming out of your phone sound amazing if tuned properly. For TWRP, yes, I'd definitely wait until a full beta or stable release to do a real flash.

Root/Magisk, Viper and Snoke's kernel still work fine. Refer to my previous post:
g3v0 said:
My general steps to update were:
Fastboot flash boot, system, vendor imgs from stock factory image.
Reboot and do OTA update.
Download the new factory image from Google, extract boot.img and replace the zImage with the one from R10.
Flashed the modified boot.img (not sure if necessary).
Reboot and patch boot image in MagiskManager.
Now for some reason, the newly created patched_boot.img file is not visible when I connect my phone to my PC (it showed and transferred the old one when I tried). I used a file manager app to copy and paste /sdcard/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img into /sdcard, where it was visible, and transferred it to my computer.
Fastboot flash the patched_boot.img
Reboot with Magisk/root and Snoke's R10 permissive

If your phone's build number in Settings -> About Phone is "OPD1.170816.025" (ends in .025), you can use the attached boot.img file, which includes Snoke's R10, and skip the first 3 lines. You will still need to patch it in Magisk and reflash it though.

I love you zachman175.
I've tried the steps in the OP and Viper will work for a little bit, but then after a couple minutes it stops working or when I switch the master power on and off a few times then it stops working, it's odd.

Afaik that is a typically issue with viper and magisk. A few months ago when I used viper with super su there wasnt any issues. But I am not 100% sure, just a hint.
for me it works for speaker output but not processing for bluetooth. Anyone else?

I was having the same issue and got it working by installing the Magisk Module called 'Universal deep_buffer Remover' by ahrion, zackptg5 that can be found within the downloads section of magisk manager. After installation, I disabled master power on bluetooth in Viper, rebooted, and then turned master power back on. I then opened spotify and it started processing. I'll update the main thread with this information.

Maybe before reinstalling all of it you could try clearing your Viper app data and then reboot. I took that step as well. I've had success streaming Spotify over bluetooth with these steps, but it definitely seems a bit finicky.

I actually ended up doing both reinstalling everything and clearing vipers data then rebooting but its still not working. Maybe it could be that i'm using google play music to play local music instead of streaming on spotify. Under driver status, does yours say "Processing: Yes"? Mine says "Processing: No". Or it could be the bluetooth headphones I'm using, I'm using one of those truly wireless earbuds with no wire in between.

Mine says processing: no as well, but that could be because I'm not presently streaming audio. Are you sure you're using the permissive version of the kernel? The non-se version that is.

Mine says processing: no when i start playing music with bluetooth headphones. I used the patched boot image with R10 incorporated that you provided in post #7.

Pokemon Go Detecting Root

I'm having a ton of issues playing Pokemon Go. It's somehow detecting I have root, and giving me **** for it.
Without root, it wouldn't play at all for me. With root (latest Magisk), it barely works for me. When it doesn't work, it tells me my OS is incompatible. I have to kill the app, restart it, and keep trying to log in until it does work. Eventually though, it always detects root and tells me my OS isn't compatible.
How the **** is it detecting that I have root? I have latest Magisk installed (version 19.3), latest Magisk Manager (version 7.3.1), latest beta OS (Beta 11). I have Magisk Hide enabled. I use Shelter to put Pokemon Go in the work profile. What the **** am I doing wrong? Plz

Yep yep! In Magisk Manager, go to settings, and it's the last option under the "General" section. Enabling this seems to have helped. After enabling it, I haven't had PGO detect root once today.
After a day, this seems to definitely have helped. Thanks for the suggestion, Darrenc81

Thanks dude was looking for this:good:
Also working here. Kudo's
Did you guys flash this with Magisk?
Sent from my IN2025 using Tapatalk
Mine is not processing any tips how to make it work? I just flashed with magisk.
That's weird, that's the one I flashed yesterday bc it's sitting on my download folder. After flashing, both of my SIM couldn't be detected, phone number and all were gone. I don't think my FS partition were corrupted. Had to wipe the phone down with recovery. Just downloaded the version posted here and it's the same in my download folder. Didn't work for me.

same here.
reboot phone - sims both ok
Just want to share some thoughts and ask some questions.
Both SIMs sometimes not being detected is true, just reboot the phone, sometimes rebooting doesn't help, after I shutdown the phone and little later start again the SIMs are being detected properly again.
I would like to ask something else, after some random Bluetooth device reconnects or after certain time, V4a stops working with Processing: No. A simple ForceStop of V4a and OPEN again solves the problem but it's just annoying because this happens to me almost every half an hour and with every BT (headset) reconnect.
On previous "pittvandewitt" official V4A Magisk module we were greeted with something like "VOL-Down: Use alternative method, only use this when having issues!"
After selecting this alternative method I recall that it kept processing for days long in the past.. how could we be able to achieve this on Android 11???
hii
all the issues are due to android 11. no option we have to wait until we get all these bugs fixed. i am using dolby now. not viper. in that also sim issue is there unfortunately. thanks
It works. Thank you
Hii all
In magiks viper is available.install it .but don't install drivers. Install viper and reboot. Don't touch it.now come once again to magiks install audio modification library. Reboot. Then go to viper install drivers.reboot it.check driver status.it should have been installed.
Thanks

Didn't work for me. Seems we have to wait for an updated version.
Is it because the OP8 update? Anyone have a version that works?
So anyone found a fix to SIM Card not being detected on boot? And that I need to reboot multiple times for it to work.
The Viper mod in the magisk manager works fine on Android 11 if you switch SELinux to permissive.
