So i've seen a lot of viper/viper4arise ( + Dolby + etc ) on many threads...
with maybe way too many versions..
On 7.1.1 default OOS 4, I have mine worked just fine with the one coming from magisk repo.
I've tried the one from Magisk 14.5, processing says Abnormal..
and i can hear crackle sounds in the background when playing music.
Decided not to clutter my magisk modules with install/reinstall, i immediately restore from nandroid backup with clean magisk
( plus one google camera patch module only. )
So have anyone got anything worked on our new OOS 5.0 ?
preferably with Dolby atmos working ? i've never tasted this one on my 1+ device ever...
I also couln't get V4A to work with Magisk so I tried the one that I also have used in 7.1.1 and it seems to be working without any issues for now.

If you're talking about the repo on the Magisk Manager, those V4A versions are horribly outdated.
Try the modules by ahrion, downloaded from the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-viper4android-fx-2-5-0-5-t3577058
I personally have v2.0 working perfectly with Magisk 14.3. But also needed SELinux permissive module to process properly. Yeah, I know, a of folks are not going to want to set SELinux to permissive. But I'm just sharing what worked for me.
v2.3 wouldn't work properly for me. But one of the devs told me that I should delete all V4A and AML (Audio Mod Libs) and try to install through TWRP. Haven't had a chance to retry it doing all that. If you still have troubles, you can post the TWRP recovery log on the above thread, and they will try to help you out.
Dolby Atmos does not work on Oreo. Do NOT flash, bootloop is a possiblity.
This is how I got V4A working with OOS oreo. I had to set SELinux to permissive.
1. Use Magisk v14.5
2. Install 'Magisk SELinux Permissive Script' module by jman420 from within magisk manager (Modules -> + button -> select file)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-magisk-selinux-permissive-script-t3577549
3. Reboot. Optional - Install 'Display SELinux status' module in magisk
4. Install 'Viper4Android FX for Magisk v14+' v4.0 by ShadySquirrel in magisk manager. You can get it from Magisk repo. (Other V4A modules might work too.)
5. Reboot and voila!
Okay... so far there are 3 alternatives to get this audio mod in Oreo
I will try them and test...
Let's say, this is my attempt to keep track of how to install in oreo..
Thank you guys for all the suggestions ( and warning ! )

did this version require any SELinux permissive trickery?
Brian
Yes it does but you don't have to install separate apps or magisk modules to archive that. After you flashed the whole thing, open Viper - Settings - Turn on developer mode and disable SELinux. That's it.

On my attempt with your method, It installs just fine with TWRP, but fail on running.
- Installed just fine with TWRP, no errors. (*)
- Reboot, but i can not find the V4A apps in drawer...
- So i opened up the zip file, extract the APK from v4afx-v2.3.zip/system/app/ViPER4AdnroidFX.apk.
- Install it manually, then it shows up in drawer.
- Everytime i try to run it.. it keeps asking to install drivers. I assume because it wasn't install in /system
( confirm install, reboot, then it asks to install again when i open it ).
So i decide your method does not works well on my device... or i may have missed something in the steps.

Your method works OK on my device :good:
so we are only limited to v4A ? no Arise, or Dolby atmos ?
i see some OP3T users saying they got it working on their device with Oreo ..

It said aroma, i'm on stock ROM.. is it safe ?
I will take nandroid backup and try it...
EDIT:
My mistake for not understanding aroma installer.
Tried your method, only install v4a 2.5, and DD Plus..
No errors, when playing music, V4A says abnormal. Second tries, i can not even get the Driver Status to popup.
Dolby Digital seems to work, but it quit everytime i changed the mode, but sound does noticably change.

You tried ahrion's module, v2.0 like I said (you listed all other version number details but that one)? Newer ones don't work for me; I tried 2.3 and 2.4, and same error you have - no V4A app in app tray.
Also, I'm on Magisk 14.3 (as mentioned) so another variable there.

my bad for not paying attention

i've managed to get mine working as per Post #5,
i saw there's a new version just came out from ahrion ( v4afx-v2.4.zip , 11/30/2017 ).
I might gonna give it a try also with magisk 14.5...

Hi, tried your two modules you've posted on my Nexus 6P stock ROM. March update. Both causing bootloop and using the uninstaller provided doesn't help. Have to use mount Magisk then go to file explorer in TWRP recovery and delete the modules from Magisk folder.

Hmm. This is probably a kernel or magisk limitation with your rom. Are you running 11.6? Try to run it without the deep_buffer Remover because this is probably what bootloops your phone. It's only necessary when you've NEED it, otherwise it may cause adverse effects. Just install V4A and see if it works.
Currently magisk still has limited boot.img compatibility which causes so.e mods to not work properly or bootloops when it's not the mod itself.

Magisk limitation. @topjohnwu is always improving magisk. I do recommend may e trying another kernel for your device which may help compatibility.
Gave this module a go, and: it's a no go... Will not boot on my Nexus 6 running Vanilla ROM 7.1.1_r26, Franco Kernel r65 and Magisk v.11.6 - MagiskSU.
After flashing uninstaller the device still doesn't boot. Had to manually remove audmodlib from /magisk in TWRP to make it boot again. And it's in audmodlib the problem is. I did a quick test where I removed audmodlib after installation (kept v4afx in place) and it booted right up (with a non-functioning module, obviously).
Attaching installation and uninstallation recovery logs. Unfortunately I'm not at a computer with ADB, otherwise I would have captured a logcat of boot for you. Maybe later...

The only real thing in audmodlib is could be is service.sh or system.prop otherwise it would be the vendor file, which would mean that for some reason 11.6 is bugged for vendor file mounting. Try installing and remove those ONLY and and see if it fixes it.
If that fixes it then it's one of those two. And if you're cool can you see which one it is exactly.

There has been an issue with vendor mounting in Magisk, but I believe that was for devices with separate vendor partitions (Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X, etc). I haven't seen any commits on GitHub about it though (although I haven't been keeping that close attention), so I don't know if it's been fixed.
I did find the culprit though: it's system.prop. With that file removed from /magisk/audmodlib my device booted up just fine.

I will remove it with next release. Thank you man. This **** only started happening with 11.6. this was the reason Atmos was boot looping as well so I removed system.prop in Atmos.
Can you do me a favor and remove a few lines to see if it's just the specific lines? I think that certain lines don't play nice with your phone.
Remove the first part, low power audio tweaks, reboot and see if it works. If it doesn't then that's the culprit. If not then remove the first two on the other audio tweaks.

Thanks, it all finally works on my Nexus 6P. Now to try on my OnePlus 3..
Hi everyone, I was wondering if there is a composite install guide for Oneplus 3T devices for all ROM's for Viper4Arise. I really love that Mod. I am currently on RR 5.3.8 and I find that the installation via Magisk is very buggy and leads to FC almost all apps and the phone freezes after a few minutes of installation. I had no such issues installing Viper4Android though. I am a noob so find the current install method on the thread very complicated. Is there a zip file which makes it easier regardless of ROM or if there is anything specific to RR roms which can be used?
Don't know of any such guide, but it's a good idea to have one (although the request for a guide "for all ROMs" may be a tall order).
I was reading through the following sounds mods thread yesterday, and it was confusing as heck, and seems like some folks have varying results: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/help/best-sound-mods-t3555160
I can't speak to RR, but what I can say, is that I easily installed ARISE on stock rooted ROM (rooted with SuperSU) with one of the AROMA versions; and ARISE works flawlessly. Did not need SELinux permissive or Busybox. I also skipped all of the options in the AROMA installer, since honestly, I don't know what most of them are, and they aren't critical for the "core" ARISE experience.
Happy to report that I was able to fix this. What I did was a little bit of sacrifice but I think I care about sound quality on my phone more than anything else. What I did was replace magisksu with supersu. While the convenience of magisk would be missed, I am happy that now I have arise numbers Module with dolby atmos installed. :good:

Did you just flash supersu over magisk or was the installation more involved? I was thinking of testing this but wasn't sure if it would work. My plan currently is:
1) Remove all magisk modules
2) Flash SuperSU from Recovery and reboot
3) Reapply magisk modules (V4A Included)
4) Reboot
Was this essentially all you did on your end?
I have tried what you are about to embark on since if I had it my way, I would stick to magisk. Here's what I did, I rooted my phone with SuperSU after uninstalling magisk completely (remove all modules and uninstall using the magisk uninstall zip), I downloaded the magisk manager and tried to rely on the supersu for root access. Magisk did say the phone was rooted after seeking rights from supersu, but eventually just hung the system. Post which it was kind of futile coz it just won't work. If you flash the magisk zip you will cause bigger issues since supersu and magisk would conflict for libraries and that's not good either.
Feel free to try it anyway and see if you get somewhere. Take a backup of course:fingers-crossed:
For me arise works flawless on rr with magisk. And i didnt need any magisk module or extra zip. Only flashed simple modular installer.

I just wanted to chime in and say that this information isn't correct. Magisk has been designed to work with SuperSU (systemless) as well as MagiskSU.

On sd card (dont rename it and dont put it in any folder) it must be at same place where all your folders are. Like downloads... Pictures...
2.Then go to rr settings and switch to selinux permissive
3.Now flash this file in twrp https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862724645
And reboot.
Have fun
Will give it a shot tonight! Thank you so much!
So this isn't for V4ARISE but rather for the Viper4Android module in Magisk (still using MagiskSU). I was able to get Viper4Android in Magisk to work without setting SE_Linux to permissive or doing anything crazy. My steps were below:
1) Install Magisk
2) Enable Magisk BusyBox
3) Install the Viper4Android module
4) Install the Viper4Android APK
5) Reboot the phone
6) Copy the audio_effects.conf file from:
\ROOT\MAGISK\V4A\SYSTEM\ETC\audio_effects.conf
to
\ROOT\MAGISK\V4A\SYSTEM\VENDOR\ETC\audio_effects.conf
7) Reboot
8) Test...Successful!
Step 5 was probably not needed but I took it as an extra measure. I can't remember the thread that I read step 6 at but immediately after doing that and rebooting my module was working.
Worked like a charm ??thanks so much. Don't know what I was doing wrong all this time

I have tried Viper4Android but I think Viper4Arise+Dolby is way better. The sound through the speakers is so much louder and with a lot of clarity. If you have a good pair of headphones then its just audio nirvana. Just a personal preference I guess.
Are you using any IRS/Profiles which have worked well for you? Do let me

For my IRS profile I'm using DTS Mode Z128k. I had tried dolby pro logic 2/3 but the way it boosted the volume was just too much. DTS Mode has worked out well so far. What about you?

I typically stick to dolby irs. But the main difference in sound is made by the profiles in viper4arise. I love the Audiophile X profile. Amazing fidelity on rock songs.

So this isn't for V4ARISE but rather for the Viper4Android module in Magisk (still using MagiskSU). I was able to get Viper4Android in Magisk to work without setting SE_Linux to permissive or doing anything crazy. My steps were below:
1) Install Magisk
2) Enable Magisk BusyBox
3) Install the Viper4Android module
4) Install the Viper4Android APK
5) Reboot the phone
6) Copy the audio_effects.conf file from:
\ROOT\MAGISK\V4A\SYSTEM\ETC\audio_effects.conf
to
\ROOT\MAGISK\V4A\SYSTEM\VENDOR\ETC\audio_effects.conf
7) Reboot
8) Test...Successful!
Step 5 was probably not needed but I took it as an extra measure. I can't remember the thread that I read step 6 at but immediately after doing that and rebooting my module was working.

Is it possible to flash after the procedure above -Viper4Arise?
Hi guys, I just bought my 3T, rooted and installed TWRP. Now I`m trying to install V4Arise, but with no success. I tried Freedom ROM... In this ROM V4Arise works fine, but the cell battery drains too fast. I returned to stock ROM... But I dont know how to install V4Arise in stock ROM. Could you help me?
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has successfully used V4A app on the Magisk rooted OOS 4.1.6?
I've successfully installed busybox, set the SELinux to "permissive", installed the latest V4A for Nougat with the latest drivers, turned Oneplus "Audioswitch" off, but still it doesn't seem to work.
As you can see from the screenshot, it all seems in order, but the "Processing" status is always set to "no".
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using this Magisk module on Magisk v13.2: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-viper4android-fx-2-5-0-5-t3577058
Works great, but since it hasn't been updated for Magisk v13+ yet it needs a couple of modifications: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72976454&postcount=316
The permissions I mention is for the scripts in post-fs-data.d and service.d and they need to be set to 755 (rwxr-xr-x).
No need for either busybox or permissive SELinux or any other alterations for that matter... YMMV, but this works perfectly for me on OOS 4.1.6.

Thank for a great idea, but I've stumbled on an another bug while trying to download Viper4A as a Magisk module to follow your solution. It seems that the new Magisk crashes halfway when i download modules from the repo, which is really strange... I've looked it up everywhere, re-flashed Magisk after uninstalling it, re-installed Magisk Manager - but no luck.
UPD: clicked your link, installed in TWRP All works!

Hello all ,
Update August 7th 2018.
Wirh recent versions of v4a , theres no need to use this method unless you tried the latest official v4a magisk module or zip and it didn't work, current v4a magaik module works perfectly with latest 5.0.4 stable rom and all betas from oos, and moat if not all 8.1 custom roms
The following is not necessary as of August 7th 2018, unless you tried official zip or module and faced issues:
a lot are asking and searching for a way to make V4A work on OOS Oreo, sadly so far most posible ways either require a lot work or setting Linux to permissive wich breaks saftynet.
the bad news is this method also Sets SELinun to Permissive but it's simulated through Magisk so it doesn't break SafetyNet...
Method:
1- download and install busybox (make sure it's installed) i personally use a pro version, some of the ones on playstore wont install so try until you find a working one.
2- Update , using the latest V4A 2.5+ version by ahrion you don't need to use Magisk SELinux Permissive Scrip because he added to his module a detection script that will detect OOS Oreo and set permissive automatically
Download and flash LatestViPER4Android FX 2.5.0.5 [Unity/AML] by @ahrion
3-reboot and have fun
if the above doesn't work
2a- download and install Magisk SELinux Permissive Script module v1.1 (all thanks to @Jman420 ) and reboot.
3a- download ViPER4Android FX 2.3.4.0 (Super High Quality) v2.1
4a- install V4A module downloaded in the past step then reboot.
5a- now V4A should be perfectly working...and It Passes SafetyNet
Screens Attached.
Excellent job, works like a charm with oos 5.
Big thx!
is bluetooth also working on this method?
I have tried your method but V4A is still not working. Thanks anyway

make sure Busybox app is installed and open it and inside it click install, the app itself has to install somethings... there's no reason for it not to work, if you've done that and it's not working please share a screen of v4a driver status while playing music .
It didn't worked for me either
Works fine!

It's not a big deal. I will wait for stable release. Thank you for the help anyways.
I flash viper4arise (Deuteronomy 2.4), it contains viper4android 2.5.0.5. To get it to work with selinux enforcing I used to install the magisk module Allow audio server on Nougat (https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...sk-modules-oneplus-3t-t3548446/post70819460). On Oreo I doesn't work anymore. Now I set selinux to permissive in developer settings in viper. It'll last till you reboot, then selinux is enforcing again.

I've tried installing the driver multiple times and can't seem to make it work at all. The only method I've not been able to accomplish is renaming audio_effects.conf to audio_effects.conf.bak as has been recommended for other phones. For some reason, this file will not rename.
it would seem the file is set to be unwritable (I'm not familiar with linux permissions like this, so maybe that can be fixed somehow?). At the very least, Solid Explorer isn't able to do the job, and can't change the rw perms either, as the operation just fails. (I have got selinuxmodechanger changed to permissive and after reboot, but no change here either)
Any other ideas?
Well, for anyone else wanting to know how to make this work, follow this guide here: https://thedroidarena.com/install-viper4android-android-10-q/
Don't use the magisk module for V4A, it doesn't work.
Works great for me now!
I'm using it it works perfect but you have to use the new version not the older one

I saw that, didn't really know what it did. I'll check it out.
Nothing in JamesDSP is doing anything for me on Speakers, Headphones, or Bluetooth. I think that this may beacause of my failed install of V4A rootless (might work if I had the APK?). Any ideas if this is the problem? If It is, do you know how I might uninstall V4A?
If rooted, try installing latest V4A directly from here (https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx) rather than via Magisk.
I prefer older V4A versions, having tried above.
My preferred V4A is 2.5.0.5 (found in App folder in following .zip from here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298920860)
1. Ensure on latest BusyBox.
2. Install latest V4A from Magisk & download driver, device will auto-restart.
3. Uninstall this latest V4A (don't delete data or cache).
4. Install V4A 2.5.0.5 .apk from above link. Don't open app yet.
5. From Magisk, install Audio Modification Library (choose relevant options). Restart device.
6. Additionally, Magisk install Audio Compatibility Patch. Restart device.
7. Ensure V4A settings FX compatible mode option = Normal.
(Don't optmise V4A in battery settings).
Noticeable improvement in speaker volume (I don't play over BT or headphones, so cannot comment).

I uninstalled everythingg I had installed up to that point (everything I could at least), and followed the instructions step by step. Still getting abnormal in the V4A app (at least the app looks cooler now : P). I really don't know what is going on at this point. I might just reset the whole phone and follow your instructions again. I will report back when I get around to that.
Ok, I decided to play around a little before trying a reset; and I installed Viper 4 Android legacy with the APK from the zip you gave me, and it now says audio format supported! Yay! It just says "Processing: no" now. I have a feeling that I have something setup wrong. Any ideas?
Edit: Grammer
You managed to install driver v.2.5.0.5 or latest v4a?
Processing should change to "Yes" whilst audio is playing (music player/ YouTube/ system sounds etc).
Streaming music can be hit & miss; set up Audio Compatibility Patch correctly (via Magisk).

I installed driver version 2.5.0.4 with the APK you pointed me towards in the .zip/viperfx/app folder.
I will reinstall the audio conpatibily patch. What options should I choose in the patch?
Edit: I did not install the driver *with* the APK, but alongside it. I installed the driver via ViperFX Legacy in Magisk.
Try the ACP if V4A not working for streaming music apps.
I selected following:
- Skip audio_policy patching? = NO
- Skip notification_helper remover? = YES
- Skip usb policy patching for usb dacs? = NO
- Use lib workaround? = NO

That's fine, as long as V4A driver is enabled/ status normal/ format supported/ and it is processing during audio play.

It still isn't processing audio : (. I have tried resetting and following your instructions again. The only way I am able to get it to stop displaying "Status: Abnormal" is by installing Viper4Android FX Legacy in the new driver mode with the user app, then installing the Audio Modification and compatibility patch, then restarting and installing the APK you gave me. Even with all that, it will not recognize audio being played (it displays "Processing: No" when audio is very clearly playing and I have effects enabled). I am now considering switching to LineageOS (I would be there already if it wasn't for the fingerprint sensor driver being broken).
Edit: Do you think switching kernels would change anything?
Edit 2: I noticed a toast notification from V4A on startup saying "A running program has requested Android to disable audio effects, so V4A will be temporarily disabled."
I am thinking that maybe the stock Dirac audio processing might be interfering with V4A somehow. Is there anyway to get Viper to ignore requests to disable?
Well, Lineage didn't fix anything (No matter what I did, V4A would not stop displaying abnormal). Took me a little while to get back to stock, but the latest version of V4A is working, but only for the first 30 seconds after reboot before giving me the previously mentioned toast notification. I have removed all apps that are even remotely audio processing related, but still have this problem. Anybody else had something similar? If you did, how did you fix it?
(Also, special thanks to elmor0 for all of your help getting me this far I'm so close)
Edit: Holy shiz it's working! I used the method described in my previous post, but with the added step of uninstalling and reinstalling audio modification library after the last reboot. Again thank you all for your help! And I really hope this helps someone!

hi
I'm having the same problem for months now
I hear it needs SE Linux to be permissive for V4A to work properly
I had no success on getting that SE Linux to turn Permissive unfortunately
long story short , I found myself here
can you please give me a step by step on how you got V4A to work , that is off course if its still working for you man
I'm at the end of my rope here , any guidance would appreciated ,
Thanx

I ended up refllashing with Lineage and installing this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-fix-100-working-viper4android-for-android-11-devices.4213647/
That version has worked flawlessly for me for Android 10 and 11.
