UPDATED: Updated V4A flash file to Viper4Android v2.4.0.1 and added notes about the TabS AOSP Marshmallow custom ROM compatibility by Schischu.
The obligatory warning:
"I take no responsibility for what happens to your device if you follow this guide. This procedure works with multiple Audio/Video apps. It should work for any Samsung device, but I can't confirm, so feedback please if it works for your device."
- 3DSammy
Root with SuperSU is required either using a standard rooting method that trips KNOX or following this guide "[GUIDE] How to root without tripping knox - Kitkat and Lollipop, Locked bootloader" by ashyx. Having SuperSU installed and functioning is essential to get around Viper4Android's need for SELinux permissive mode which is not possible when you are using the Samsung stock firmware.
As of June 8th maximumentropy posted a method to use SuperSU to work around Viper4Android's need for SELinux permissive mode. This requirement was problematic on Samsung devices where the SELinux mode changer app did not work with the Samsung stock firmware.
The instructions and flash files below will allow both custom ROM and rooted stock ROM devices to install Viper4Android, an amazing audio replacement.
Note: V4A and the included flash file works with the AOSP Marshmallow custom ROM compatibility by Schischu. Any of the SoundAlive comments below can be ignored for this custom ROM.
Steps:
1) Download the two flash files "ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip" and "LolliViPER_TAB_S.zip" (at the bottom of this post)
2) Flash ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip and LolliViPER_TAB_S.zip with FlashFire or a Custom Recovery (e.g. TWRP) of your choice.
3) If you want Spotify to work and maybe other audio/video apps then Samsung's "SoundAlive" must be removed or disabled. Options:
Backup then freeze or delete "SoundAlive 2.0" with Titanium Backup
Backup then delete the "/system/priv-app/SoundAlive_Tablet_20" directory with a File Manager that has RW "/system" privileges
Remove "SoundAlive" with an app like "System Remover app" found on the Playstore
4) Reboot your device and then start Viper4AndroidFX and install its drivers when prompted then reboot once more
5) Start the Viper4AndroidFX app and configure audio for the device speakers/headset/bluetooth as desired. Please refer to Viper4Android XDA forum for details about the extensive options.
NOTES:
Be aware that if you do not disable/remove SoundAlive then Spotify will disable V4A until the next device reboot. Causing confusion about whether V4A is actually working reliably. Other audio apps may also demonstrate this tendency.
If you check the V4A driver status and audio is not playing the status will show "Processing: No" that should change to "Yes" when audio is playing and V4A is working correctly.
A Rule-of-Thumb with V4A is to make sure to turn off any Audio/Video player app's specific equalizers, gain controls, audio effects, ... etc, as they interfere with Viper4Android. If you still cannot get Viper4Android working with a specific app, that's not listed in this thread, then search first then if necessary ask on the V4A's XDA forum.
So far the following Audio/Video apps have been successfully tested with V4A:
Neutron audio player (Settings and uncheck Equalizer;Sound Sound;DSP-Effects->Surround Sound;Relay Gain;Normalization)
MX Player Pro (Settings->Audio->Volume Boost unchecked)
Spotify (If it is working properly the Spotify->Settings->Equalizer will directly display the V4A app)
TuneIn Radio
Google Music Player
PowerAmp (PowerAmp Settings->Advanced->Uncheck everything)
YouTube
ViralPro (a YouTube alternative)
Apps that do not work with V4A (likely due to the removal of "SoundAlive"):
Samsung's "Music" app (still plays audio but not by utilizing V4A processing)
Please post any apps not mentioned here, which you either get working or that have problems with after checking the V4A XDA forum.
If you have SuperSU working and have never tried V4A do so and you ears with thank you!

Hi and thanks a lot for helping others out with the notoriously difficult to install viper app.
I presume the supolicy zip is intended as an alternative to setting selinux permissive. Any negatives to using one method over the other?
Also, can you please explain what your application zip does exactly. Does it just install the original viper as a system application or did you make any other modifications?
Thanks!

Either method of getting V4A permissive mode will work but if you rooted and maintained KNOX the stock bootloader blocks SELinux from setting permissive mode so the supolicy is your only alternative. Besides I read a comment from Chainfire who indicates that using permissive mode system wide is poor security practice. On my Nexus 5 which is running marshmallow I found all I needed was two supolicies to get all my root apps running and they were for V4A and stickmount.
The supplied V4A flash file installs V4A in /system/priv-app, sets permissions and attempts to delete two apps that the stock Samsung firmware does not have. Those audio apps are in the Google stock firmware and do no harm as there is nothing to delete. The flash file is based off one for V4A on a Nexus 5. I choose to not delete the Samsung audio app as some people may want to back it up, besides I documented three ways to deal with that app.
I hope you enjoy V4A.

Yes the app works on KitKat but the directory structure for apps on /system changed. I'd suggest going to the ViPER4Android XDA forum and searching for KitKat installs. That forum link is in the OP (first post).

thanx for the files...
should i replace these files in your previous zip.. or install them as it is?
also, is their no way to get viper 4 android in E5.
i used different methods, but I get errors lyk..
some say you are not rooted,
some says busybox not properly installed
some, drivers not installed in viper coz of neon issue..
however i am rooted, have twrp and super su installed..
I have tried installing different ROMs like Cyanogen 14.1 (LineageOS), AOSP, and XenonHD all of which are based on 7.1.1 r6, but I haven't been able to install Viper4Android 2.4.0.1.
First of all, I don't really know how to make a clean install but I had installed SuperSU 2.79, SElinux Mode Changer and BusyBox by Stericsson.
The only thing I have achieved was for V4A to process only media files inside storage. Soundcloud, Youtube, and any other app did not get processed by it. :crying:
Please, can someone help me install a version of 2.4.0.1 that works?
PD: I dob't want the newer 2.5.0.5 because I don't like the new UI. Viper4Arise is also acceptable .:good:

The thing is, on my other phone, when I went to the System App Uninstaller with Root, I was able to find MusicFX, but on CM there is only a misterious thing called CM Audio Serivice and a thing called Ant HAL.
I can only get it partially working though.
I have found soume posts on the official Viper4Android XDA forum saying you have to make a clean rom installation, remove audio_effects.conf, install v4a, then supersu, then Selinux changer, then busybox, finally install v4a drivers and then remove Deep_buffer entries from Audio_policy_configuration.conf
I'll try it this weekend when I have time though.
In my CM 14.1 didnt have much difficulty though in flashing viper4droid. Hope u fix yours.

CM 14.1 (Now LineageOS has no problems in Viper4droid) due to bandwidth issues, i dont use soundcloud, however playing local mp3 files, audio seems fine.
I'm trying to install the Viper4Android 2.5.0.5 module in Magisk. I installed the module and the app and then rebooted, but the driver status in Viper4Android under enabled indicates a "no".
I've tried some of the settings, but it does not seem to work. The sound is all the same. Any idea how to get this to work? There were no additional instructions for getting V4A to work.

I can confirm that the above link works great..
I was hoping I didn't have to use that workaround, but I guess I have no choice. I don't know if anyone will agree with me, but I find it annoying to have to decipher and read through all these guides and forum posts to figure out how to get something to work. I wish things just "worked".

Everyone has different devices, different setups, etc. It's never going to "just work" easily for everyone. That said, the link above works great and doesn't really have much reading to do....
Only issue I had was it not working initially, but I set the mode to "compatible" instead of "normal" it instantly started working. In case you have issues with it not starting like I did.
Hello, I have a OnePlus 3T (Oreo - 8.0.0 - OxygenOS Open 20 ) I was in the big sh*t installing this app but now it's working so what I do ?
I simply install 4/5 things :
- Viper4Android APK here ( http://www.mediafire.com/file/xonl4jha2e4vez1/ViPER4Android_FX_v2505.zip )
- BusyBox you can get it on the Play Store
- This Magisk module for OP3T but if you have an other phone search an other compatible module ( https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298977808 )
- The SELinux Switch [IMPORTANT] ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=22073#downloads )
UNINSTALL ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF V4A ON YOUR DEVICE.
Now I'm gona show you how to get this sh*t working
Simply install unzip the Viper4Android folder and install this apk :
ViPER4Android_FX_v2505_A7.x_Nougat_IO_test_fix.apk
(Maybe a newer version can be delivered in the future I think you can install it).
Then install BusyBox.
Open V4A and install the Drivers.
When it's done go to Magisk -> Modules -> + and install the zip module for your device.
/!\REBOOT /!\
Finally you just have to install The SELinux Switch.apk and switch your SELinux to Permissive (maybe you have to reboot but for me when I reboot my SELinux go back to Enforcing SELinux so I switch it back when I reboot).
[Note : I don't know if it's important but I was flashing a zip of V4A that's install me V4A as a system app and it wasn't working (error I/O) this is not important but it maybe install me other files so maybe you have to do this if it's not working at the end].
V4A is working now (don't forget to switch off your stock equalizer in Settings -> Sound -> Balance)
If you have any problem or questions contact me.

No because V4A is not working when SELinux is on enforcing bru this is why I install the switcher and it's working but if a problem comes I will test with your module.

Ok thanks bru
Hi everyone,
I have been an android user for long now and have been a total fan of Vipers audio effects, dil by atoms and dolby surround and the sony music app which I have installed in every phone I have had starting with The Samsung note 2 till the Samsung S8 which I had till February this year after which I switched to a note8 exynos as I'm in India.
Eversince I updated to oreo most of the mods either don't install or get stuck in twrp recovery at "Magisk image found" And I have to force reboot.
I was pretty happy to find a post on XDA which had viper Sony music, sony sound effects and dil by atmos and other related goodies and there were oreo versions there.
Unfortunately they too either get stuck while flashing in recovery or if the in stall completes then the phone doesn't boot after reaching the flash in Sammy logo.
Have tried to use supersu instead of Magisk for root but it is a no go even then.
I'm running Delux Rom v6.1 rooted with magics and with sony music installed thorough magisk. The viper install through Magisk doesn't work as in it either fails to install driver or gets installed but does nothing when playing music.
Am downloading delux rom v 6.2 right now and will try again.. I would really appreciate any help or guidance to be able to have my config as I like it to be.
I have also tried weta rom 7.2 and it has the options to install viper and earlier had dil by too. The west rom controller shows the process is complete and successful says reboot is needed.. After reboot there is nothing in the apps menu or sometimes there's viper but it doesn't work.
On weta rom v 7.1 I am unable to get volte working even after manually installing the correct cab which is why I dropped it.
I look forward to help and as ice gem the learned and wonderful people on XDA Developers Forum, I cannot count the number of times I have been saved after bricking my phone by following the tutorials here.

Centaur31

I have been having the same issues too. It seems to be hit and miss. I tried WETA and it worked, but there were a few other bugs in the rom which basically meant I couldn't use it as a daily driver. However...Using @dr.ketan 's ROM, which I have to say is excellent and completely stable, I was delighted to find in the Rom Control, the ability to switch Viper4Android on and off. Simply select the number for Old or New (drivers) and then install the V4A APK and everything works flawlessly! Try it out and good luck!

I've been using that version of viper since I got the phone and haven't run into any issues. I do however also have the audio modification library and audio compatibility patch modules installed as well. If those don't help, then I think there is a larger issue.
PS - I've used both the latest stable and the canary Magisk builds without issues.

All i can do is try to dirty flash stock rom again and install twrp, magisk and elementalx and try another time.
About audio compatibily patch, there are really too many options and i don't know where to start to install it correctly..... but i don't think google camera crashes because of that......

I would be surprised if the audio compatibility patch caused an issue too. Honestly I had forgotten about the initial options that I had to choose when I installed it. I just uninstalled it and reinstalled it and only chose the "notification remover" option and then opted out of the lib use (last option). I use the headphone jack, so I don't need a USB DAC (does this phone even have one?), nor do I use Spotify, etc.
However, it is important to install the audio modification library last. It should find both the Audio Compatibility Patch as well as Viper4Android and patch both to work together. I might suggest that you uninstall it, reboot, and reinstall it to ensure it is actually patching both audio modification. Also, make sure the driver is actually installed in Viper if you end up reinstalling any of these mods as you might find that the driver isn't actually installed. It's a long shot, but perhaps that would fix your issue.
I'm also using the leaked camera version 6.3.017.253834016 currently (because it has the night sight setting as a main option instead of buried in the "more" settings). But this really shouldn't matter and the stock camera app worked just fine too. Viper4Android is always one of the first mods I install on a phone and it has never given me a problem on my 3a XL or caused the camera to stop working.

EDIT: I've attached a logcat, if you know what could be the problem i will be happy
Dirty flashed August factory image, Elementalx, TWRP and Magisk. Same issue. Anyone who can help me taking a look at the logs?
Im on 2.5.0.5 and i have no issues so far with the camera app.

I've never had any real issues getting Viper4Android to work on Android 10, but I understand it is a common issue. Here is a Pixel 4 thread on installing Viper4Android on Android 10 and how they got it to work. The fact that it is on a Pixel 4 device is irrelevant. Perhaps this can help you get the driver installed.
PS - I should mention that I already was using the audio compatibility module and the audio modification module prior to moving to Android 10, so it is quite possible that is why I never experienced any issues.

I am. And the camera started working after disabling the boldbeast module.
