This is just [UPDATED] [APP] Walkman for ICS Full [ICS] by ThilinaC adapted to u8800.
I removed some apk's because they didn't do anything in u8800.
If you only install the apk, the background of the player does not change according to the album cover. With that zip it changes
Install the app + libs:
walkman_for_u8800_ics_only-signed.zip
Revert back to Aurora 4.0 files:
delete_walkman_for_u8800_ics_only-signed.zip

does it have widget?
Does it have some audio improvement, special equalizer,etc?
Is it compatible with Google Music? If I understood correctly, it overwrites default music player and GMusic is a must for me.
Holy crap, sr21, you rock, man.
Thank you so much.
Also, yes, it does come with the widgets.

No, it have widjets for Albuns, Artists and Playlists.
It does not have a widjet for playing songs like Google Music, Apolo or PowerAmp.
The widjet that has been ported didn't work in my phone. Because of that I didn't included it in the flashable zip.

It is a good music player like others.
I don't have a 450€ beats headphones to see if have sound improvements or not. The sound of u8800 is not good at all, so the improvements aren't very noticable.
The biggest improvements that I ever seen were with Beats Audio Mod that I posted in the General Section, but with it you couldn't set the volume to the maximum or it'll cause a little bit of distortion.
I don't have Google Music installed, so I don't know if it is compatible with it or not.
You can always try it and if you don't like it, just flash the delete zip. It'll restore the aurora files and remove the ones of Walkman.

@sr21 do you currently use your beats audio mod with this player?

I didn't tested it together.
If you use Beats Audio Mod, download the Walkman zip and extract it. There is one app in the folder data/app, just install it as a normal app and you have the Walkman installed without messing up with Beats Audio.
I'll take a look to see if they use the same fibs!

Some of the files used by Beats Audio are also used by Walkman.
I don't know if mixing them together will be bad or not.
If you want to use both, I think you should flash Walkman first and then Beats Audio for two reasons:
1st: You can remove all the Walkman files with the flashable zip that I did (it'll revert your system files to Aurora 4.0 defaults). You could reflash Beats Audio and it'll be like a fresh install.
2nd: Beats Audio shows best audio improvements in than Walkman. Walkman have a nice player and that's it. Flashing Beats Audio after flashing Walkman will force the system to have the Beats Audio files and your sound should be great as it was when you only used Beats Audio. And probably Walkman should work also...
You should use this Beats Audio version: BeatsAudio5.1.zip

Thank you so much.
As much as I like how nice Android 4.+ looks, I'm still running CM7 because I can't seem to get the sound I want on CM10.
Just now, I think I found out the reason why.
FYI, JetAudio is my music player. I like it a lot and would never leave it since it has everything I want: folder playback and reverb.
On CM7, I'm using the combo JetAudio SFX + DSP settings + Voodoo.
On CM10, DSP settings + Voodoo only seem to work on Apollo. Maybe because other apps think DSP is Apollo's EQ instead of a standalone app.
At first, I thought it was JetAudio's problem, but it's the same for RockPlayer and BSPlayer.
Please some devs look into it.
Or is that how you guys want to implement it?
Why do you bother with dspmanager if you have Voodoo ? I always delete it at flash, so the Voodoo is used + players EQ. Too many EQ's doesn't make sense trying to set them up properly, like 3 people trying to drive the bus.

I also rock both voodoo and DSP, but I usually disable any of its functions when the similar function is enabled in the other app. Example, I usually have bass booster enabled in voodoo and disabled in DSP. Also, I find voodoo crucial for its Smart Amplifier since I find that the sound on my headset is too low for my liking, while the DSP equalizer is quite useful when I want to tweak my sounds. If given the choice though, I'd prefer using the MusicFX apk from stock android, since I find that it works best with voodoo sound.

Isn't voodoo integrated into DSp manager?

Congrats on posting and still not answering the question.
I'm using AOSP and manually flashed DSP manager bzw. voodoo sound. It's a great combo that simply gives more options.
Using the first flahsable zip suggested here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1891017 you may try the beats v3 one if you want to.
Yes, I'm using CM9 DSP manager in jelly bean, it's compatible.

If you read properly, you can see he already has DSP installed on his CM10 setup (surprise surprise, it comes with it!), just that it doesn't seem to engage properly when using any other player than Apollo.
OP, reading DSP manager help:
"DSP Manager is per-output audio adjustment application.....
The manager can only enable it for applications which are compliant with android's audio effects specification, i.e. most music players."
That means players with their own EQ in CM9/10 won't be working. Google Music will work, so will Apollo. It's an Android limitation I believe that was introduced with ICS.
So, that's not a solution for your problem sadly, but rather an explanation. Cheers.

Fine. But what do Apollo and Google Music have in common? They are system apps. Try migrating your music player to the system partition using Titanium Backup. My guess is that user applications don't have the right to tap into DSP manager.

And it's a bad guess. It's not because they're system apps, heck you can install Google Play Music and Apollo both directly from the market without having them installed previously. It's a limitation that is caused by changes since Android 4.0.1. It would be pretty nice if it was that easy.
For what its worth, PowerAMP now supports DSP Manager, see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37836540&postcount=12

Hey guys! I have a Galaxy S4 on 4.2.2 that i have rooted and used TrulyClean v1.6 (Hardcore version) on!
I recently got the tip to try and install viper4android since it was better than the beats EQ mod i had,
I found out that the same issue I had with the beats eq mod I had with viper4android too.
Whenever I listen to songs in Google Music I cant just change tracks because when the next
track is playing there are no FX at all, just the stock sound! sometimes i gotta let a song repeat 2-3
times before this happens, it is REALLY frustrating and annoying!
I dont know if it's because I have to delete music FX or get another music player,
Whatever it is I know i'd appreciate some help!
Thanks in advance, cheers!

Hi. My i9505 does not recognize viper4android despite I've got it in audio effects. Usually I listen music with samsung player. Might be default player?

I don't know. I think it's a drivers problem. You should unistall the first one and reinstall it according to snapdragon cpu. I followed entire guide but my audio didn't change. Only thing we could do, is to wait for new version.

V4A is awesome with all players except stock..I'm also interested in the fix with stock player..
anyone got VIPER working properly on their i9505?
V4a works fine with mine.. I use poweramp and play music.. However i can not get it to work with samsung player..
I found that mine works from time to time (using Google Music).. the first track doesn't get processed but as the second song starts v4a kicks in sometimes.. I can't really use other players as my music is stored in the Google cloud. .
I went nuts on installing this.
Its great and truly the greatest sound but its tempremental I can get it to work with stock player and google music but it wont.be constantly working.
If one works the other doesnt.

Having the same issue on sacs custom 4.4 v3. It has worked on all after sacs roms but not the 4.4 for whatever reason. I've tried evening I can think of to Foxx over the last few weeks and still no successand I'm really missing viper its by far the best out there. Having the same problem in my Windows 8.1 machine as well.

I have a similar problem with the Allview V1 Viper(a.k.a. Gionee Elife E3/Blu Life Play). I have a custom ROM, Xperia 4.2.2 made by Orochi, and it came with V4A preinstalled. I set everything, I launch walkman, and start a song. For 10 secs, the sound is great, the effects definitely work, then it reverts to stock...
What can I do?
Deezer and Viper4Android
Well, I have a Samsung I9082L and a Xperia C2304, but I'm facing problems with Deezer when using Viper to enhance my Xperia sound. I don't know if it happens with all Xperia phones, but Deezer uses my Xperia audio enhancer as default. I discovered that Xperia audio enhancer and Viper4Android conflict when using Deezer. So I tried disabling Sony audio enhancer (SoundEnhancement.apk) and it happens that I was right... now Viper works as a charm for my Xperia. So, for the people who are having problems using Deezer or Spotify, verify if Deezer uses phone's audio enhancer as default and try disabling it. Do not uninstall it! Just disable at the application options or, if not available, freezing with Link2SD or TitaniumBackup. Hope it helps.
I was using the Google Play Edition for my Samsung Galaxy S4 (I9505), I flashed that ROM onto it, I used to use Google Play Music and use the equalizer settings there. Now I use the Cyanogenmod 4.4 Kitkat for my S4. The same equalizer for google play music is not there (it uses DSP manager or something).
I don't care about this but.. I had a really awesome equalizer preset there, I liked "FX Booster" I'm pretty sure that's what it's called. I need to recreate that same one with this equalizer so I would appreciate it if someone could post a screenshot of what FX Booster equalizer settings look like so I can copy them. I have looked almost everywhere, tried googling every type of thing and nothing helps.
If nobody can do that, can someone tell me how I can get the old equalizer back?
DSP Disable
As far as i am aware the FX Booster has 4 different qualities , 3d Effects , Clarity , Bass , not sure about the 4th. I am guessing this is more than a bunch of equalizer setting. DSP, AcId , Viper Audio are all custom sound mods that need to be de-activated if you do need to use the players equalizer.(You should be carefull removing the DSP , there might be side effects)

Yes I have. V4A also known as Viper 4 Android is supported by our device (at least it worked for me. NO GUARANTEE). It works about the same as Dolby Atmos. Its as usual a personal preference thingy, just like some people enjoy a Playstation and others the Xbox.
Besides that there are other packs out here on XDA that might work but they have not been explicitly tested or anything. Go and use the search if you want to experiment a little but remember, ALWAYS Backup all your stuff.

Yes I did but only with the chinese Version. That also has been with the old Android (5.1.1). With the european version of the music player it had issues and didnt do anything to the sound.
It also worked with Google Play Music, Spotify, Phonograph and the HTC Stock Music app that I am using now on 6.0 with Dolby Atmos.
Dolby Atmos has always been my goto software because it worked with all tested versions by me and honestly I have been through many versions on the P8 Lite.
