[GUIDE] Make viper work on Lollipop

This is a thread specially for the music lovers like me. Many of its have been wandering that how to make viper work on android lollipop, and today I finally found a way out and it will take just a couple of minutes to make viper work on your device.
**Procedure**
1. Install busy box on your device. (If installed skip this step)
2. Download 'SELinux Mode Changer' from playstore and give it root permissions.
3. Now change the SELinux mode to 'Permissive' .
4. Install viper(I used v2.3.3.0) and it's drivers.
Now reboot and enjoy the music.
Please hit thanks if it helped.

will this work on GPE ?

installation was successful , but it doesnt work in brazilian lollipop
the app runs , but enabling viper doesnt make any difference in audio quality

I had similar issue.
What worked for me was to change the SELinux policy as suggested in this post and then flashing LolliViPER_v2.3.3.0.zip from the below link..
Viper4Android
Do remove the drivers and application before flashing the zip..

its solved , by turning mode to compatible

I followed your tutorial, but still can't install viper drivers. Can you help me? I'm using SuperSU 2.40 flashed from philz touch. And Android 5.0.1 GPE

This works, but it breaks phone volume for me. People can hear me, but I cannot hear them.

Tap-a-talked from the MOTOG

It working for me (xt1033)
I wonder, on lollipop viper only works with music app....
But on kitkat viper works not only with music player, but also with youtube, video player, even with phone call ringtone and keyboard sound...
Why is that ?
Sorry for my bad english

Maybe some audio related intents have been changed

but I use tutorial from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/material-t3016037
Make sure you had backup your stock 5.0.2 build.prop because after install viper you will lost your signal
so, restore your stock build.prop and reboot

This thread is an attempt to help with that by including working files and configurations for the HTC 10, and nothing else.

PLEASE SUGGEST CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS

Quick post and reservation for future.
Working config for me with each step included (relevant or not, just in case)
Dirty flashed rom to remove traces of v4a (Using Venom)
Installed busybox and xposed
Flashed Metaspook's V4A-MK latest and kernel (Elite)
Booted and gave V4A-MK superuser permissions
Installed driver through V4A-MK
Immediately (soft) rebooted
TO MAKE IRS FILES WORK YOU MUST GO TO SETTINGS>APPS>V4A-MK AND GIVE IT STORAGE PERMISSIONS
V4A was working for me after this, but I do not take responsibility if it does not work for you.

I recommend Dolby atmos 6.6 also made by @ahrion.
I believe the link is in the Original HTC10 audio thread as well.
Also ViperAudio. 4.8 and ViperAtmos. 4.8 by guitarededhero, and others that contributed and tested to make those go to mods for me.
Viper's I mentioned can be found on xda, software development forum. Feel free to link below.

Literally just solved this problem myself, you just need to give V4A-MK storage permissions in Settings>Apps>V4A-MK and the IRS files will show up fine. Adding to OP.

V4A-MK Mod-works great but use correct version #

Okay, all of this is so complex I dont even know what to say
Would be great to have the best sound available. Is there maybe a custom ROM for HTC 10 with integrated Viper4Android sound mod ?
I know to unlock bootloader, root, flash rom etc.

just try flashing the metaspook V4A-MK zip

Anyone here uses external USB DAC with their V4A?

I haven't tried a USB dad but I want to. On that note the hdmi output works perfectly. All our TV's have built in days and also sounbars and recievers. Why there is no stand alone dads that I can find with hdmi input I am really not sure. Dies hdmi have better audio than USB I do not know either but sounds damn fine to me. If you just want to had a separate headphone dac/amp then I think any with an xmos processor will work. Also the soundblaster E5 sounds pretty good and should connect.

were you getting force closes, freezes etc? i think it is either due to busybox or init.d support, the v4amk thread has links to flashable zips for both and after flashing them both it stopped those problems, not sure exactly what it was though.

Yeah it would freeze. I also might have had a bad from at the time. Its been a feature packed week.
Got BusyBox installed from Google play now.
Crucial step for sure.

V4A works great when using Play Music, but I'm having trouble getting it to run on any other music app, even youtube and my web browser. I even have it set on FX Compatible Mode.

Im going to try to flash this. Im on the latest Leedroid ROM. is the zip all i need to flash as on his thread it says to flash a Kernel.init zip aswell. Also if something goes wrong do i just dirty flash ROM to get rid of it?
Edit: so i just tryed to install the mk mod zip and it worked fine but after installing the drivers and rebooting the app just freezes and so does phone. I tryed witht he init.d zip aswell and still the same. How do i get this working? Im on leedroid R155 which has the updated busybox.
Edit 2: set selinux to permissive and all works now.

why no AcoustiX on the list?

I think that you are trying to go for systemless mode. System less mod doesn't work for our device. Just flash normal xtrememusic 7.5.9 through recovery.
If you want dolby atoms you have to flash dolby atoms later. If you flash dolby atoms first then it will not work properly.
Cheers
Happy flashing

Dude normal version works on every rooting method?i just want to work with poweramp!please help i am one step from flashing.

I flashed it and viper4droid just f.closes and e.m just blank when I open it.previously I had another mod that I just uninstalled it with system app remover app cause it was not working with poweramp.maybe this is the problem?

Working audio mod

Can anyone suggest a working audio mod for the latest stock update ..I tried magisk ..it didn't work ..if there is any mod working ..please provide the link
Thanks

Honestly this is the main reason to understand my "love and hate" relationship with the stock rom. It's great, in terms of performance is even better than any custom rom i've used, but i tried every single method to get ViperFX working here, and i couldn't, always shows 'Processing: no' in driver status.
Regarding to your question Dolby Atmos is working. but i personally think that it's nothing compared to ViperFX.

I'll post the steps
1. Install magisk
2. Uninstall both Dolby apps using system remover ( since u already installed ).
3.Boot to recovery again , wipe caches and boot to recovery again.
4. Flash this zip.
5 reboot.
I've had the fc issue when I had other audio modifications installed, in case this is the problem, install audio modifications library from magisk then flash Dolby.

I think you use V4A,. You can try selecting Dolby in Convolver-Impulse Response. Not the true Dolby Atmos feel but something is better than nothing
