I want to use Viper4android. After installing Busybox and Viper4android and rebooting the phone, I am unable to use Viper on my phone. I tried disabling as well as uninstalling soundalive.apk from system using titanium Backup. However, the surprising part is even after Uninstalling Soundalive, it keeps on appearing in Stock Music Player and doesn't allow viper to function. How can soundalive pop up when the apk itself is deleted from system. I have been successful in using Viper4android on Samsung Galaxy E5. However I am not able to use it on Galaxy A5
This soundalive thing is too annoying. Any way to get rid of this crap bloatware....

Hello this is kind of a late response but I respond anyway =D .. this is what I did and now V4A is working like a charm on Galaxy alpha stock Kk rooted phone ... I went to the audio.effects.conf file located in /system/etc .. and I opened it with a text editor .. and then I removed everything with the name "sound alive" in it .. rebooted the device and now V4A is working without any problems
Have the solution
https://apkring.com/es/apps/package-disabler-pro-samsung-apk
Download that app, follow the steps, find soundalive and just disable it. DONE. you can eneable it whenever you want. Have a Niceto day

Viper4android isnt working.
1.Not working on both iNTrinSic and Negalite ROMs
..........The settings do nothing. And for some reason I didn't get any audio filters. "Impulse Response"...so i downloaded them and placed in the right folder...toggle through them with nothing.
3. Current setup is iNTrinSic 8/6 build...comadose...7/24 KT Kernel..with newest Viper4android build installed as a system app...with proper drivers installed
4. Driver Status looks normal except for "Processing" says "no"
5. Tried the safe mode/fx compatible mode/reinstalling drivers/tried multiple music apps

Have 2 music apps installed, such as play music and stock music player start a song on 1 player and interrupt it with a song on the second player...Then viper will work with the player you interrupted it with...If this doesn't work reboot and try again...You will have to do this after a reboot or powering off, but you will be good other than that...

This has worked for me, though I never realized what i was doing. On another note, get a root browser of your preference and make sure the viper APK is in /system/app and not /data/app. I forget what ROM I was on at the time, but after struggling to get it to work to no avail, I realized the dev put the APK in the wrong place. Odd thing is, it would work sometimes, I think with the above method, then it wouldn't. It's a fickle beast on our devices, hopefully subsequent versions of the software should be more stable. It's annoying, but Viper is AWESOME when it works. Slightly off-topic, but the HTC One X Beats IRS is the best if you really don't know what you're doing with the settings, and for someone mildly familiar with the other settings like myself, it's still a good overall foundation to tweak from. Happy listening, hope this helps!
Viper works just fine for me on both of those ROMs, I am however using Poweramp. Although it also works with stock music app and MX player pro also. I have purchased two of the .irs packs also and these work just fine too.

I was having trouble getting Viper4android to run correctly on my TouchWiz Rom too and here is a solution that works:
Download Build Prop Editor from Play Store.
Launch Build Prop Editor and change the following lines if they exist:
Ipa.decode=true to lpa.decode=false
tunnel.decode=true to tunnel.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=true to lpa.use-stagefright=false

Doesn't work for me either
Hi all!
First off, sorry for my bad English (its not my main language)
Just rooted the Phone with easyroot and installed TWRP 2.6.x.x
Just installed the Viperaudio file (through play store and the download link in XDA) And i cant get the volume boost or equalizer to work...
Viperaudio didnt asked me for root acces but when i check it with the Root checker app i have Root acces + i have superuser installed on my device!
Also installed the right driver for the LG (8 with NEON) and nothing works... equaliser doesnt work and the volume boost doesnt work either
Did i do something wrong?
P.S. I have the international version of the LG G2

Install Busybox if you haven't already, Open it, wait for it to locate all files or whatever, Install using Smart Install, uninstall driver in Viper4Android FX by pressing menu then Uninstall, reboot, uninstall app, Then start from scratch using this tutorial (same issues and this is what I did):

And link to Good settings for this FX if you don't want to use impulses/do (NO DISTORTION CLEAN LOUD SOUND):

The links arent working..
Tried this: uninstalled everything and installed busybox via Smart install, then installed Viperaudio and the driver.
Restarted my device and it still isnt working ... hmmpf
When i play a song with poweramp it doenst work (no sound)
When i uncheck the first option in Viper (V4A-SpeakerFX) the sound is back!
When i check the setting to "on" my sound is gone :/
If you have it up and running, did you encounter some issues with the volume level? I fell that it's the same level audio in headphones even if it's 10% or 100%.. While running the stock settings, it works fine..
I found that viper audio does not work with downloaded songs in Google music or music unlimited. It works only when streaming which is useless to me.

Hello.
So last night I installed the latest Supermanrom on my S7 edge.
But I cant get Viper4android to work.
If i look in Magiskt then it´s installed.
But there is now app?
I downloaded the Viper4android app but when i look at "driver status" nothing is processing using Spotify.
What am I doing wrong?

Try doing another clean install.. wipe everything. And as for spotify, i dont think it works on it. I dont personally use spotify so I may be mistaken.
All you need do:
1.Disable/Freeze/Remove SoundAlive and Adaptsound apk... (I use lucky patcher)
2.Update ViPER4android in magisk (and download apk from magisk link. or here)
3.Remove SoundAlive and Adaptsound effect. in /system/etc/audio_effects.conf (remove all thing that have soundalive or adapt sound or download this and replace it, my audio effects conf.(also have dolby atmos R6.5 conf in that file. I think will work without dolby too..... pm me if you can't use without dolby))
4.Reboot.... also make viper apk system app may help......
It work to me with same rom. (sorry if my English is bad)
I installed an equalizer from the Playstore that required to turn off the stock equalizer, in this case, the Samsung SoundAlive app. So I used package disabler pro to do that. Upon realizing a third party equalizer doesn't work without root, I went back into package disabler to re-enable. Now when I go to Sound > Sounds and Vibrations > Sound quality and effects, it no longer recognizes the stock Samsung equalizer. It does nothing. So, I re-installed the stock equalizer apk, and upon installation it says cannot install because it's already installed!
I've tried restarting the S8, but the phone still does not recognize the stock equalizer. Any idea how to get the phone to recognize the stock equalizer?

I may not have a real answer, but on the app info where you disable/enable the app, you can possibly clear cache and data as well and see if it will help and also restart the phone. If it won't work, then I would also suggest to go into manage apps in settings and then find settings app and clear cache data.
I use Amazon Music with Viper Mod and Dolby. The problem I have is when I start playing my music I have to go into the Viper app. As soon as I open the app Viper kicks in.
Is there something I can do to kick Viper in automatically?
Hi, re-instak and follow instructions, instal as system app, u mess a step
Honeslty, I have never been able to get Viper working fully on my 6t. You might want to try removing the optimization in settings to see if that will let the app continue running. I think OOS just disables it after you don't have anything playing for a while.
I mainly play on my car Bluetooth when I am driving mostly a volume issue but do like surround sound as well
Have you tried making Viper a system app so that the process won't continually get killed?

Viper4Android FX 2.7.1.0 doesn't give me a option to select anything, It just installs completely and then says to reboot. I downloaded App Systemizer (Terminal Emulator} and moved it to system and now you are right it is running fantastic.

As a follow-up, about a day after I had posted, my viper stopped working. So I deleted the plug-in in magisk, and reinstalled 2.7.1.0 fresh and it's been work ever since! I apologise if I came off flippant at all. Seems they changed / updated something and that had to be done.

No need to apologize after a few times of uninstall and reinstall I gave up. Between my Bose Stereo settings in my car and the phone settings I get really good sound so I'm good.
