I've been beating my head against a wall for a bit, trying to get any of the MM supporting audio mods to work on the 6P. I've used PureNexus, Chroma, and rooted stock, and I had Pon-3 Audio Mod working at one point, then I changed up to Chroma where I had nothing but woes with it. I've tried XTREMEBeats as well, and it seemed to get a little further (save the XTREMEBeats app itself, which crashed on open), claiming the V4A driver installed, and to reboot, but that just resulted in a continuous cycle.
I found a OPO forum thread that said (for V4A) to use some version of Busybox by meefick, and not the Stericson version, and to set SELinux to Permissive. That's a no-go either.
Has anyone managed to get any of the audio mods working on the 6P on any rom?

Did you do the following prior to installing drivers on V4A?
”Using a file manager or otherwise, delete or move "audio_effects.conf" out of /system/vendor/etc”

That worked! I'm not sure why that never came up in any of my searches, so maybe my google-fu needs some training.

Are you using systemless root? I have gotten V4a to work with systemless and system root using chroma and PN.

Nope, I tried that with Chroma, and it just wasn't jiving with what I wanted to do. thecarp1975 got me going though, making me ashamed of my kung fu.
Look for @guitardedhero in nexus 6 threads for installing v4a on 6p. It is under viper...
No luck. I've tried the above suggestions and Viper keeps asking to install the drivers. Your help is much appreciated!

Not letting me move the file. Says 'cannot be deleted.'
For me, V4A works both in systemless root and normal root.
I follow the guide in Of Systemless Root, Themed Apps, V4A, Busybox, Layers and Android (Maybe)Pay....
Hello.
Im on a brazilian Moto X Style XT1572 dual sim rooted.
Id like to know if there a way to make its dual loudspeakers sound better.
Thanks
Enviado de meu XT1572 usando Tapatalk
There are some sound mods floating around the MXP thread that some have said work. Like Dolby Atmos is one, iv used it on other phones and it worked great, i recently tried it for this phone, it flashed fine, but it did not take affect for some reason. Maybe some others can chime in and share what they've tried.

I'm using Viper/Atmos/Beats/Huawei and it works great. If you've never used Viper audio before, there are a quite a few parameters that can be adjusted. I'd start with Atmos, then tweak Viper to your liking.

As I said above, I flashed Dolby Atmos. In the past on other phones it worked perfectly as it should. But I flashed it on this phone and it has no effect, what would you flash now, knowing this.
And as far as what you are using, you named them all lol which one/ ones did u flash

The link I provided is an installer of Viper and Atmos. The developer has been working on the installation method for the last month or so to be compatible with most devices. I, like you, had problems with Viper and Atmos on this phone until I came across that thread. I'd highly recommend trying.

Thanks for the respons.
The link you provided IS the the one I tried.
I downloaded the first one of the 3 in the op, which was 'Dolby Atmos' downloaded it, and flashed it. Am I missing something? Can you please tell me exactly what you dl and flashed from the op of that thread?
Thanks
Edit:
OK I figured out the problem. In the very beginning of that thread The op lists Viper Atmos , Beatz, and Beatz Huawai, with a link to each of those. So I clicked on the Viper Atmos which pointed to a thread that was simply Dolby Atmos, with no Viper , nothing else, just Dolby Atmos. That's all I needed imo bec in prior phones all I would need to do is flash Dolby Atmos, without anything else, and I personally don't like/ need Viper. The way Dolby Atmos had worked prior was good with me.
But as I said Simply flashing Dolby Atmos wasn't working on this for some reason, so as I scrolled down to the very bottom of the first post, I seen all the downloads, Viper Atmos light and dark, Viper Atmos with Beatz light and dark, etc etc etc. See I thought those first 3 the op had listed at the very top were the actual downloads to his thread.
So that's why it wasn't working. Sorry about that.
I guess to get system wide improvement of sound on this device, Viper must be included.
Again, sorry for the mix up

Oh, yeah, read the edit. It's a long OP with the downloads near the bottom. I do recommend the Beats/Huawei for the added files and improvement overall, but you can't go wrong with any of them.

Use the one recommended to me in post 11.
I wiped caches, flashed that zip, wiped caches.
2 apps will install Dolby Atmos and Viper. I don't mess with Viper, I actually uninstalled it. I use the Dolby Atmos app, if you go in there you'll see you can adjust the sound to your liking. You'll see what I mean when you open the app.
It def improves Audio quality.
Like I said I don't mess with the Viper app but if you want Google it. What Dolby Atmos allows me to do is enough for me tho.

Hey
Yeah I personally have no interest In Viper4android, all I really need is the Dolby Atmos app. So after I flash the mod, I uninstall Viper, I had to make sure it would mess with the mod working but it doesn't so I just uninstall it.
And use the Dolby Atmos app and edit to your liking.
I can't say what is the best. Just play with it, and find what you think sounds the best.

What about the XT1575 using TruPureXMM 2.4 with Franken Kernel with xposed installed?
Would making speakers sound better work under the description above?
Firstly, sorry if this is against the rules, I have included credit wherever applicable and am open to any and all improvements.
HTC AUDIO COMPILATION THREAD
I just got an HTC 10 recently and got pulled into the audio mod scene, and the spent over 12 hours trawling through every forum post under the face of the earth to find some way to get my imperceptibly better audio fix working.

Working config for me with each step included (relevant or not, just in case)
Dirty flashed rom to remove traces of v4a (Using Venom)
Installed busybox and xposed
Flashed Metaspook's V4A-MK latest and kernel (Elite)
Booted and gave V4A-MK superuser permissions
Installed driver through V4A-MK
Immediately (soft) rebooted
TO MAKE IRS FILES WORK YOU MUST GO TO SETTINGS>APPS>V4A-MK AND GIVE IT STORAGE PERMISSIONS
V4A was working for me after this, but I do not take responsibility if it does not work for you.
I recommend Dolby atmos 6.6 also made by @ahrion.
I believe the link is in the Original HTC10 audio thread as well.
Also ViperAudio. 4.8 and ViperAtmos. 4.8 by guitarededhero, and others that contributed and tested to make those go to mods for me.
Viper's I mentioned can be found on xda, software development forum. Feel free to link below.

Anyone here uses external USB DAC with their V4A?
I haven't tried a USB dad but I want to. On that note the hdmi output works perfectly. All our TV's have built in days and also sounbars and recievers. Why there is no stand alone dads that I can find with hdmi input I am really not sure. Dies hdmi have better audio than USB I do not know either but sounds damn fine to me. If you just want to had a separate headphone dac/amp then I think any with an xmos processor will work. Also the soundblaster E5 sounds pretty good and should connect.

were you getting force closes, freezes etc? i think it is either due to busybox or init.d support, the v4amk thread has links to flashable zips for both and after flashing them both it stopped those problems, not sure exactly what it was though.

If possible to try on your own Nexus 6P and see then just tell me step by step and I will replicate it or give me any things I may have been doing wrong!
I used the ported Maxx Audio a while ago. Wasn't anything special. There are better options like Ainur with James DSP or ARISE with ICE Sound and Viper4Arise.

Thanks for the help really appreciate. I tried that and it shows the MaxxAudio app but the equalizer presets are pretty much set at zero and no matter if I customize it and change it, it ends up going back to zero and plus it still doesn't work even if I move the toggles around.
I wanna thank you for all the help you gave me I actually got it to work doing this:
First I downloaded Android Commander so I can transfer the system room files (sys, vendor, bin etc..) using my computer
Then I used that to transfer the vendor file into the system file to pretty much overwrite the default vendor file
Last I renamed the default audio_effects.conf to "audio_effects.conf.bak" then restarted and now it works so thank you again really appreciate the help!
