Hey guys! For those who have a s6 or s6e from canada or T-Mobile US (92xW8/92xT), there is a fix for call audio for Grace UX roms using Arter97's N7 Port Kernel, Noble and maybe A8. I have tested (On Noble v6) that the call audio works and CERTAIN (All will work with workaround from below) apps will playback music and videos. It is a known issue and I was hoping that someone would be able to complete the fix and be able to play music locally stored our devices.
Locally stored music does not seem to be working but, some apps below are some I tried using and I did label the apps working or not with some notes. System audio is perfectly fine, from phone calls to notifications, it seems limited to playing locally stored music. Please view "edit 2", I managed to get around the local music issue.
Here are apps I have tested: YouTube(Working), Spotify(Working), Sammy Music(Not Working), Google Play Music(Working, GPM Streaming library only), Blackmusic Player(Not Working)
Call audio fix I used can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...x-patch-call-audio-fix-t-w8-grace-ux-t3449303
Kernel that must be used (Download the correct one please!): http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...development/arter97-kernel-galaxy-s6-t3171246
Credit goes to s.raa for N7 audio fix, credit goes to arter97 for kernel
EDIT: A8 confirmed working! Only features not working on T/W8 is AOD and Blue light filter, both of which won't work until someone has been able to compile a kernel with the proper ramdisk and correct fixes for those features and call audio.
EDIT 2: I managed to get locally stored music to play . What I did was remove "Hearingdro_v52" and "SoundAlive_41" from /system/priv-app and install A.R.I.S.E Sound Systems and Dolby Atmos.
I will add a note here: I have not tried just removing "Hearingdro_v52" and "SoundAlive_41". You may try it if you don't like Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos (Which this mod is based on), but I can guarantee that installing this mod makes the audio work with local music files.
Let's hope that we don't always have to do this workaround in the future. But for now, here are the instructions.
here is the XDA link to their thread (Credit goes to the team): http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709
Steps (For installing A.R.I.S.E):
Download A.R.I.S.E Sound Systems Deuteronomy 2.33 (and optionally, Dolby Atmos addon for Deuteronomy)
Simply remove "Hearingdro_v52" and "SoundAlive_41" from /system/priv-app
Reboot into recovery
Make a backup of system (This mod replaces lots of files, and in case you don't like it, you can go back)
Flash A.R.I.S.E Sound Systems Deuteronomy 2.33 First
(Optional, only if you also downloaded Dolby Addon) Flash Dolby Atmos addon for Deuteronomy
Reboot and enjoy the working audio with local music files
I tested on A8 Ported ROMs and works fine...
I wish that someone help us with a FIX for tamerlan kernel, with this we can use a Blue Filter and AOD in ported ROMS.
Thanks in advance.

The fix wouldn't be that simple though, it would require a ramdisk change for sure and some other fixes for call audio. It would also need the fixes for both Grace UX and AOD and blue filter.
I would try to compile a kernel, but I have no idea what fixes are needed and what files need to be included for AOD and blue filter.
Thanks for letting me know the audio works on A8 ports!

Thanks for you support... and if you need a tester for new kernel, please let me know, i still trying to make a mod for this too.

I'm pretty sure that Maqical is already testing a kernel with Note 7/A8 ports. The kernel could already be in the works.
Updated OP with a workaround I figured out to play local music files

My mods initially were created for 6.0-7.1.2 CM, AOSP, LOS based roms. But my last updates and tests(my and @sharma.keshav153 ) allow you to work on 8.0 and 8.1 and stock 7.0 (and maybe 6.0 stock). It is preferable to use superSU.
[MOD] [CM,AOSP,LOS] [6.0-7.1.2] SonyMusic_with_SSE&ViperAudioSE
Mod is for CM, AOSP, LOS roms with OS 6.0-7.1.2 . It compiled me from various sources, primarily ViPERAudio 5.5 Sony Beats Edition. As well as applications, libraries and configuration Sony. Mod has a fully working application Sony "Music" downloading data on a track and album. Also, equalizer, Xloud etc... I strongly recommend that after the first run and settings to make updates to the app on Google Play. You can also download others Sony apps.

How to install
Mod installs via custom recovery(TWRP 3.02). After startup options must be configured properly. Freeze or rename existing AudioFX (MusicFX). ViperFX set in compatibility mode and restart the device. Then run the application "Music" from Sony. Get the necessary permissions and select "Audio Settings" default EQ.
Dont forget about backup
How to uninstall
Uninistall mods
In order to remove the mod completely, necessary, as mentioned above, to restore the backup or flashing rom without wipe over that to restore the system files.
Notice:
If you have Magisk instead of SuperSU use fix below(post #2) . Flash via TWRP after any mod. Fix is the AudioModLib. Always fresh fix you can download here. .
Changes:
Made the final amendments in the archives. Now the audio_policy.conf file from which deep buffer is deleted has a saved original version of audio_policy.conf.bak. And in case of problems with sound in the internal speaker , just restore the original version.

Only update via Google Play. Surround sound (VPT) work with speakers too . aptX, aptXHD and LDAC support. I think that are final builds. Wait feedbacks.
Note.
DSEE HX working (The Slider is always OFF though; however, it DOES work)
DSEE-HX DOES WORK when you turn it "ON". Just left it after turning "ON".
To toggle OFF the DSEE-HX you have to switch the slider to "ON" again, then turn "OFF" because the slider always display as "OFF".
Further explanation: The Sony DRM cause the issue with the graphic file of the DSEE-HX's slider. It, however, does not affect the audio quality or function of this MOD.(Thanks for this clarification @sirdoha)

Need update Sony Music after start. Does not work on all roms
Uninstaller is the same as for SonyPlayerFull.
Dolby Atmos Oreo mods*new*
I made some Dolby Atmos Oreo mods based on @guitardedhero fantastic port.
All builds simply different . Need select for self more compatable. Maybe temporary bootloops after reboot from recovery , dont worry try reboot else one(only one). Sometimes on roms with magisk root is lost. Do reboot. Mods which with Viper's prepared can install via TWRP and then can install ViperFX 2.5.0.5 as ordinary application. So in magisk roms you can delete Dolby via magisk manager and Viper FX from rom settings .
Who want to get mod with SonyMusic&ViperFX&DolbyAtmos can add to DolbyAtmos&ViperFX simply Sony Music application from here .

might be because of the AOSP builds at the moment then,
the camera on the Z5p works 50% of the time, so maybe some sound issues or other build issues are still around as well

No. V4A works on 7.1.1 perfectly.

Thx a lot. Works fine in RR 7.1.1 on my s7 edge.
Hello guys, so the story is I just loaded the Viper4Android Magisk Module onto my K20 Plus, and it sounds really neat. However, I now want to try out A.R.I.S.E Sound Systems on this device, and I am wondering what's the best configuration I could perhaps use on A.R.I.S.E for this device.
use this insead https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/soundmod-ainur-audio-t3450516
ARISE has a lot of useless bloat.
I am using Magisk with the following modules and it sounds amazing...practically on par with my old OnePlus 5T.
-03/17 release of Ainur Sauron (which is the last version to allow qualcomm vendor patching)
-V4A by ahrion
-Audio Compatibility Patch (to allow processing with streaming apps)
-Audio Modification Library
All of these are created by the same guys and designed to be used together. Flash them in the order listed and you will be in business and Viper will process for everything.
My question is that anyone still use the Ainur narsil [ mk i ] which is a magisk module in oos 11 , i still not update to oos 11,because i afraid that it may not compatible on it. Would anyone could try it on oos 11
thank you
