SoundAlive help? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had an old Note 3 lying around and decided to root it. I had modified and flashed the hell out of my old Galaxy S2, it died last year though. I remembered the absolutely killer audio I had with Viper4Android on a modded version of KitKat.
Now I've got a rooted Note 3 running Lollipop, so I flashed the latest version of Viper and had issues, it didn't want to work - at all. I searched for solutions and it all pertained to Selinux, and since I'm running a stock ROM that's a pain in the ass. So I eventually gave up on Viper.. Now, I'm stuck with Viper Audio libs instead if SoundAlive libs for audio effects.
I've obtained the right audio_effects.conf file for Lollipop and replaced the one that Viper edited for it's effects. Sound is working, SoundAlive opens when I launch it, but no sound effects are present when changing the EQ.. any advice you guys can offer?

[Q] Equalizers that work on GS4 / Viper4Android

Hey guys!
I'm new here, and first off I'd like to state a few things, just so we're clear:
MusicFX / Default Equalizer doesn't work for me.
My S4 is rooted.
I don't want to reflash / can't upgrade / lose root
I've gone through all the necessary steps and backed up my phone with NANDroid backup and Titanium Backup, I don't want to have to re flash or update and lose my root, but all I really need is a working equalizer for my music.... since my headphones aren't giving 100%, I need a bass / volume boost... Now to the point, I downloaded Viper4Android sound mod and I'm just wondering if this'll brick my phone or not? Running 4.3 MK2 SW...
I'm doing a full backup just in case but can anyone please confirm that this works or not before I irreversibly damage or brick my phone? I just don't want to go through the agonizing hassle of reflashing my GS4 since it's so complicated, and at this point Kies won't work for me here so I'm bent out of luck if my phone gets bricked...
If not, can anyone list any good working equalizer / bass booster apps for the S4?
I'd be more than happy and I'd appreciate your help, guys.
Thanks! -Dan
Viper4androidFx is amazing...... It is the only audio mod you need, ever..... As long as you have made a nandroid backup there shouldn't be an issue...

yes Viper is amazing and it wont brick your phone! but it consumes more RAM. One more thing, did u tried the ADAPT sound feature of default music player? It gives real clear audio quality! Just try it before Viper u might like it.

And i wan't to boost my audio(speaker&headphone).
Is there any mod of both thats suitable for this version of the S5.
Its a S5 from Vodafone NL.
Kind regards,

Hello,

- For boost audio, google for bass boster (pro version has to be paid but GIYF), it's here

but there are others apps to do that. Bass booster permits you to amplify sound but also level sound. Try it

Could you explain me about that recovery stuff, cause im pretty new to it.
And that link you provided is about rooting the device, which i did succeed in(was pretty easy and confirmed that its rooted).
I gonna test the audio booster in a few minutes, i used before on my old 4.1 android speaker boost and that worked perfectly, 2 bad its not being updated for 4.4.4

No, in posts #21 and #23, it's about the recovery.
No, you're totally right.
Moreover, this china recovery is ok for backup, restore and all wipes (all tested).
OK for flash zip without aroma interface (2 aroma zip failed, on zip without aroma passed).
Waiting for cwm or other "proper" recovery.
And DL link is for china recovery.
To unzip and flash with ODIN.

Hmm, Thanks ill try it at home but now i tested the program. That doesnt really boost my volume. Saw some volume booster setting so bought the pro version, but its kinda a waste of money
I've tried also manually adding the mixer.xml of the audio booster on this forum that normally should be used with recovery mode to install it.
But it worked but when i was called and picked up i couldnt hear the person.

Only thing that i need is an updated version of this tool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729652
I hope the owner can edit V4(with headphone boost) for my G-901F.
The one that has been published does boost my audio on both speaker and headphone, but the problem is i can't hear any signal when i call somebody or when he/she picks up the phone when i used the tool.
Even if i restore it with the restore tool it still doesnt work, thats why i had to reinstall the stock firmware over and over .
It is such a great phone, and since im an audiophile i like loud music.

[Q] Samsung Note 3 Downgrade from Android 5 to 4.4.4 or stock

Hello
INFO
I've installed the echoe rom version 22 http://echoerom.com/roms/echoefull/note-3/ on my phone ( samsung note 3 [n9005])
(with a the AEL kernel don't know if this is usefull info http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/mods-xxugbnl8-t2986519) )
also I've changed the bootloader to the appropriate Found on the XDA forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2495688
BL_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5
I've changed my modem to CP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 (which was a bad decision no 4g/lte anymore)
I've upgraded my recovery from cwm 6.0.4.6 to cwm 6.0.4.7
I did a back of my imei and efs just in case something would harm it and render my phone useless.
Problem:
Now I'm wondering can i go back to, either Stock 4.4.4 or a custom rom
I want to do this because the Rom is too new and not all apps i want to use, such as xposed framework and many other are unsupported. (which i should have checked before flashing)
Plus I'm not enjoying this rom due to many crashes, such as Unified Daemon (EUR)(needed for weather updates etc) and limited mobile data speeds and many mobile data disconnections, also I notice my Note 3 is running slower while using less ram than before which is very odd..
Many thanks in advance!
P.S.
I have all the files online I've made an online back up of them so which I always do for repairing purposes none of them is altered or tampered with by me.
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by
Good luck

Yes u can!!!!flash your stock rom with Odin and everything will be fine!!!
HIT THE THANKS BOTTOM IF I HELP YOU IN ENYWAY!!!!!
I was trying out some lollipop roms and in my stupidity didn't think about not being able to go back to kitkat.
After finding that a few apps I use don't like lollipop i thought I'd revert back, I went into recovery and tried to flash the kitkat rom, but it would keep failing. Panicking I remembered the nandroid backup. I restored my older kitkat rom and all worked well... Phew!
Moral of this story is always backup.
I'm now back on a lollipop rom, (audax) as so far everything is working like clockwork. But I still have my nandroid backup just in case
Lucky you! ;-p i don't have a nandroid ba-up but i do have the stock rom 4.3 somewhere i might try that after my exams are over! Thanks!

So I rooted my 4.4.4 note 3 N900p and I was going through diff Roms, all the roms were 5.0... I didn't do a nandroid back up because Ive never heard of that. I have the stock 4.4.4 rom will that install or no?

Well I haven't tried it but if a nandroid works a clean install via odin or the cmd way should overwrite everything on your device so if you follow a tutorial for restoring your device to stock you should be ok i think BUT I haven't tried it so please ask around some more.

Anyone seen a Stock deodexed TWRP flashable OF1

Looking for a TWRP flashable Stock OF1 5.0 rom for 900V?
Odin isn't available to me working on the road without a laptop for a fee weeks.
Currently running Teamsek CM13.0 6.0 I like it but bluetooth calls and Camera both still have some big bugs I need to revert back. Luckily I did make back-ups using TWRP but those sometimes fail and would like to try with maybe a stock version that's been odexed or debloated?

From what I seen @donc113 I would still need to Odin the modem?
Or am i wrong?
This Teamasek CM13 im currently running now is so so close to being a daily driver. Just a couple things are killing the vibe 1 being camera is temperamental. 2 bluetooth instability
Other than that it absolutely rocks!

And are you running the Lean Kernel?
Installed lean kernel with Jasmine as suggested on intial flash working like a charm definitely better than stock 5.0 with features recorder built in, with SU and Hotspot work around, no more need for Foxfi I'm digging it!
Thanks for the suggestion Donc was hesitant of Jasmine on my Note 3 because of the troubles it was to get on my Note 2 when multisystem needed to be used etc.
So yeah any 900v user using stock with TWRP definitely flash jasmine w/lean kernel is working solid!
Still looking forward to new release of CM 13 just cause its so pretty! hope development continues, amazing to see the activity for Roms on the HLTE but not HLTEVZW would love to see more for us now that flashing is back ?

I'm also on the trader418 CM13 6.0 and I haven't had any issues with the camera at all...none that I've noticed yet. I've also used different cameras and all seem fine to me taking pictures and recording video....Google Camera, stock Cyanogenmod camera, Manual Camera, Camera FV-5, and Open Camera. The only time I've noticed any issues is when recording in 4k..it's very stuttery and a waste of time to even attempt a recording in 4k. Just curious, what issues do you have with the camera and which camera app(s) specifically?

Using stock camera app. Was very slugish when it did work. Say I'd take a picture in messenger or any other app than try to goto the camera app from the app drawer I was getting force closes and popups saying camera is currently in use or unavailable. Then eventually get the camera has crashed would you like to wait,report or close. I'd need to do a device restart to use camera.
Maybe it was just me that experienced it. I should have maybe tried another clean install. But I also had Bluetooth troubles devices wouldn't connect twice. I had to unpair and repair whenever I was using bluetooth headset or vehicle. And mentally and I was ready to revert back or try something else. But you saying this makes me want to give it another go. But I'll wait after spending all afternoon setting Jasmine up to my likes.

Yes, unlocked (developer). I am using idle kernel.. Which is an offshoot of lean kernel (3.4.111) for me, it gets me a little better battery life, maybe 15 to 20 minutes extra before I need to charge.

DSP Manager for Stock Oreo ROM

This was the best sound mod I knew.
It was also working on S7 edge stock Nougat ROM. It originally comes from CM.
I already flashed countels zips in different variations, nothing works. Either the DSP manager won't work or the sound is stuttering fast.
Please, someone, make this work on Samsung S7 edge stock Oreo ROM.
I'll pay money to have this working again.
James/Ainur DSP is not the same...
