Replacement for Viper? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Is there any app that I can use to replace Viper? I mostly just use it for the audio boost and the clarity mod, but since the S8 won't have root any time soon, or TWRP, I need to find a replacement
Thanks to anyone who can help!

[Q] How to get Viper4Android and Poweramp to work.

Hi Folks,
I would appreciate your help please. I'm trying to get V4A to work with Poweramp without success. I've scoured XDA and the internet for solutions.
I'm rooted running stock with Art. Has anyone running Art been able to get this combo to work? If so please help!
Thank you!
I've managed to get it to work except I have to manually turn off Poweramp's eq everytime I plug in my headphone jack or switch to BT. Anyone know how to permanently turn off Poweramp's eq? Thanks!
P.s problem solved!
I managed to turn off the pa eq! It came to me in a eureka moment as I awoke this morning. You have to unassign each preset that you have set for headphones, speaker or Bluetooth. So make sure non are showing and eq will stay off!
The combination of PA with V4A is stunning!
Unassign the presents in Poweramp or V4A?

Get SElinuxchanger if your rom is set to enforcing, set it to permissive and you have to run V4A in compatibility mode - that way it works for me, however the sound quality is MAYBE not so good in this mode, in normal mode I get better sound quality I think
Same Problem
Hey guys, for the last few weeks Viper4android worked fine on my poweramp, however suddenly the processing status was set to "no".
I did all the necessary steps to enable V4A,like disabling equalizer,direct volume control etc. , so I don't know what the problem could be. V4 A does work on other music players though. But still as I prefer it to work on my Poweramp, please help me if possible to find a solution.

A good, fully functioning EQ app with volume boost for AT&T S7 Edge?

Hi guys.
Since Android 4.0 I've used this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartandroidapps.equalizer Equalizer app from the store ... even more-so since going to the S7 Edge as the volume going to my car's bluetooth sound system left a bit to be desired. This app requires you to kill the SoundsAlive built-in service so there aren't two EQ apps running. And yes, before you ask, I've tried it with and without SoundsAlive.
Now after the Nougat update (official OTA on Friday) both the volume and bass boost in this app do nothing, and I mean NOTHING. The slider for them won't even move from the off/lowest position.
I've tried using the internal speaker, wired headphones, and bluetooth - all just sit there and look at me like I'm stupid.
So I went even one step further and did a full wipe of the phone . It still sits there and does nothing.
With all that having been said , can anyone point me to a good EQ app that also has volume/bass boost capabilities that also work through Bluetooth on our beloved S7 Edge? Whatever app it is MUST work without Root!
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated - those two functionalities are a MUST HAVE for me.
Thanks for any feedback!

I used this for MM, but should work with Nougat. Give it a try, best thing next to Viper4Android IMHO

If you're rooted I really recommend viper4android 2.3.4.0

Sound Improvement with Nougat?

When I had an axon 7 before I had issues with crackling/static noises when playing music through the speakers and bluetooth. I'm not sure if it was a hardware or software issue but I got 2 replacement devices and they both had the same issue. In the end I got a refund.
Apart from these sound issues the phone was perfect and I'm thinking about trying it again, since I haven't seen another phone I would buy this year (except xz premium).
I had the axon back when it was on stock marshmallow, so I want to know if anyone has had the same problem or seen an improvement in sound with stock nougat, nougat roms or through using any mods?
viper4arise (numbers, non-aroma) works for me. enable for phone speaker and bluetooth and reduce output gain to -10.5 to see if there's an improvement. I think it requires root and selinux set to permissive for it to work.

Improving sound output in custom ROMs

We all know that sound output is quite low in custom roms, as compared to that in stock ROM.
I just installed and used the stock rom for the first time.. and while i liked the sound output, it's the only thing that i liked in this rom??.
So, in short, does anyone have some magical way of bringing the sound output in custom roms close to stock?
You can install ViPER4Android FX from the magisk manager to increase the sound output in custom rom.
Increase the master volume for speakers and headphones and that's it.
Sorry but I am not able to post the screenshot.

Just install JamesDsp module from magisk and reboot...
Open the app and enable master switch
In bass boost---Set to super and 4079 low pass filter
That's it.Amazing sound without complicated configs..??yee?

Audio Balance on 6T

Does anyone know of a way to change audio balance on headphones on my 6T without resrting to root methods? Im partially deaf in one ear, and want to boost volume on that side only to help balance the audio properly. Seems like such a simple feature Im surprised its so hard to find a solution.
I think root with Viper or similar is your only option.
Or something like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/361211561651
