Audio Mods on Oreo based custom or stock rooted roms - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Hi everyone,
I have been an android user for long now and have been a total fan of Vipers audio effects, dil by atoms and dolby surround and the sony music app which I have installed in every phone I have had starting with The Samsung note 2 till the Samsung S8 which I had till February this year after which I switched to a note8 exynos as I'm in India.
Eversince I updated to oreo most of the mods either don't install or get stuck in twrp recovery at "Magisk image found" And I have to force reboot.
I was pretty happy to find a post on XDA which had viper Sony music, sony sound effects and dil by atmos and other related goodies and there were oreo versions there.
Unfortunately they too either get stuck while flashing in recovery or if the in stall completes then the phone doesn't boot after reaching the flash in Sammy logo.
Have tried to use supersu instead of Magisk for root but it is a no go even then.
I'm running Delux Rom v6.1 rooted with magics and with sony music installed thorough magisk. The viper install through Magisk doesn't work as in it either fails to install driver or gets installed but does nothing when playing music.
Am downloading delux rom v 6.2 right now and will try again.. I would really appreciate any help or guidance to be able to have my config as I like it to be.
I have also tried weta rom 7.2 and it has the options to install viper and earlier had dil by too. The west rom controller shows the process is complete and successful says reboot is needed.. After reboot there is nothing in the apps menu or sometimes there's viper but it doesn't work.
On weta rom v 7.1 I am unable to get volte working even after manually installing the correct cab which is why I dropped it.
I look forward to help and as ice gem the learned and wonderful people on XDA Developers Forum, I cannot count the number of times I have been saved after bricking my phone by following the tutorials here.

I have been having the same issues too. It seems to be hit and miss. I tried WETA and it worked, but there were a few other bugs in the rom which basically meant I couldn't use it as a daily driver. However...Using @dr.ketan 's ROM, which I have to say is excellent and completely stable, I was delighted to find in the Rom Control, the ability to switch Viper4Android on and off. Simply select the number for Old or New (drivers) and then install the V4A APK and everything works flawlessly! Try it out and good luck!

Did you try installing V4A as a user app - Give it a shot. Also what version of Viper did you try?

Samsung Galaxy Camera 2

I recently purchased a refurbed Galaxy Camera 2. I got it rooted, but want to install a custom recovery. I went to TWRP (preferred), but they don't offer a recovery for the EK-GC200. I see where some have installed a custom recovery, but for the life of me I can't seem to find one for this device. Can someone help me with this? I'm not new to rooting on installing custom recoveries/ROMS, and not new to Samsung (I rooted my s3-my Note 4).

I came across this today. Its a custom ROM of Android 5.0 for the galaxy camera 2 and provides a suggestion for the recovery.
I HAVE NOT installed this on my Galaxy Camera 2, so I cannot speak to it, but the recovery should at least be helpful to you.
If you do decide to install Lollipop on it, lemme know how you like it. It looks like its a stock 5.0 as if it was just an android device with no special camera stuff. Not sure if Samsungs Camera App is downloadable separate, or if there is just a better camera app in the play store that would be more useful.
I am curious about this ROM, but just got my camera yesterday and dont really feel like installing a custom rom on it yet. So far thing runs like a charm with everything I want disabled and turned off, so i have no real reason to want ot change it.
anyway, heres the link:
*for some reason I cannot post the link into the reply without part of it getting starred out.
Just google
"custom roms for samsung galaxy camera 2"
and its the 4th result
The article claims you can just download from the playstore and install recovery.
2. Install the ROM Manager on your Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 Gc. Get it from Google Play Store, then install the clockwork mod recovery. You also can use ROM Installer application from JRummy Apps Inc.(Get it from Google Play Store).

The article is fake, which is pretty obvious if you do any kind of fact-checking or research and I expect trying to flash anything it links to will brick your camera. There is no custom recovery available for the GC2 yet. As far as I know, I'm the only one that has been working on one (and I haven't released it yet because the zoom/volume inputs aren't working currently). There is no Lollipop build for this device either, custom or official. To the best of my knowledge, Samsung hasn't commented if they're going to release a Lollipop build for this device or not.
The $450 price tag turns away a lot of developers to this device. I was able to score mine for $200, but I work full time and take classes when I'm not working. I can't commit to developing for this device in my spare time.
WoW! I didn't know that XDA Developers are developing ROMs for Galaxy Camera! Maybe I can try it...
Bump for this!! I would LOVE a walkaround cam like this. )

[HOW-TO] Installing Viper4Android (V4A) Audio on a Lollipop Tab S [Updated May 12th]

UPDATED: Updated V4A flash file to Viper4Android v2.4.0.1 and added notes about the TabS AOSP Marshmallow custom ROM compatibility by Schischu.
The obligatory warning:
"I take no responsibility for what happens to your device if you follow this guide. This procedure works with multiple Audio/Video apps. It should work for any Samsung device, but I can't confirm, so feedback please if it works for your device."
- 3DSammy
Root with SuperSU is required either using a standard rooting method that trips KNOX or following this guide "[GUIDE] How to root without tripping knox - Kitkat and Lollipop, Locked bootloader" by ashyx. Having SuperSU installed and functioning is essential to get around Viper4Android's need for SELinux permissive mode which is not possible when you are using the Samsung stock firmware.
As of June 8th maximumentropy posted a method to use SuperSU to work around Viper4Android's need for SELinux permissive mode. This requirement was problematic on Samsung devices where the SELinux mode changer app did not work with the Samsung stock firmware.
The instructions and flash files below will allow both custom ROM and rooted stock ROM devices to install Viper4Android, an amazing audio replacement.
Note: V4A and the included flash file works with the AOSP Marshmallow custom ROM compatibility by Schischu. Any of the SoundAlive comments below can be ignored for this custom ROM.
Steps:
1) Download the two flash files "ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip" and "LolliViPER_TAB_S.zip" (at the bottom of this post)
2) Flash ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip and LolliViPER_TAB_S.zip with FlashFire or a Custom Recovery (e.g. TWRP) of your choice.
3) If you want Spotify to work and maybe other audio/video apps then Samsung's "SoundAlive" must be removed or disabled. Options:
Backup then freeze or delete "SoundAlive 2.0" with Titanium Backup
Backup then delete the "/system/priv-app/SoundAlive_Tablet_20" directory with a File Manager that has RW "/system" privileges
Remove "SoundAlive" with an app like "System Remover app" found on the Playstore
4) Reboot your device and then start Viper4AndroidFX and install its drivers when prompted then reboot once more
5) Start the Viper4AndroidFX app and configure audio for the device speakers/headset/bluetooth as desired. Please refer to Viper4Android XDA forum for details about the extensive options.
NOTES:
Be aware that if you do not disable/remove SoundAlive then Spotify will disable V4A until the next device reboot. Causing confusion about whether V4A is actually working reliably. Other audio apps may also demonstrate this tendency.
If you check the V4A driver status and audio is not playing the status will show "Processing: No" that should change to "Yes" when audio is playing and V4A is working correctly.
A Rule-of-Thumb with V4A is to make sure to turn off any Audio/Video player app's specific equalizers, gain controls, audio effects, ... etc, as they interfere with Viper4Android. If you still cannot get Viper4Android working with a specific app, that's not listed in this thread, then search first then if necessary ask on the V4A's XDA forum.
So far the following Audio/Video apps have been successfully tested with V4A:
Neutron audio player (Settings and uncheck Equalizer;Sound Sound;DSP-Effects->Surround Sound;Relay Gain;Normalization)
MX Player Pro (Settings->Audio->Volume Boost unchecked)
Spotify (If it is working properly the Spotify->Settings->Equalizer will directly display the V4A app)
TuneIn Radio
Google Music Player
PowerAmp (PowerAmp Settings->Advanced->Uncheck everything)
YouTube
ViralPro (a YouTube alternative)
Apps that do not work with V4A (likely due to the removal of "SoundAlive"):
Samsung's "Music" app (still plays audio but not by utilizing V4A processing)
Please post any apps not mentioned here, which you either get working or that have problems with after checking the V4A XDA forum.
If you have SuperSU working and have never tried V4A do so and you ears with thank you!

Hi and thanks a lot for helping others out with the notoriously difficult to install viper app.
I presume the supolicy zip is intended as an alternative to setting selinux permissive. Any negatives to using one method over the other?
Also, can you please explain what your application zip does exactly. Does it just install the original viper as a system application or did you make any other modifications?
Thanks!

Either method of getting V4A permissive mode will work but if you rooted and maintained KNOX the stock bootloader blocks SELinux from setting permissive mode so the supolicy is your only alternative. Besides I read a comment from Chainfire who indicates that using permissive mode system wide is poor security practice. On my Nexus 5 which is running marshmallow I found all I needed was two supolicies to get all my root apps running and they were for V4A and stickmount.
The supplied V4A flash file installs V4A in /system/priv-app, sets permissions and attempts to delete two apps that the stock Samsung firmware does not have. Those audio apps are in the Google stock firmware and do no harm as there is nothing to delete. The flash file is based off one for V4A on a Nexus 5. I choose to not delete the Samsung audio app as some people may want to back it up, besides I documented three ways to deal with that app.
I hope you enjoy V4A.

Yes the app works on KitKat but the directory structure for apps on /system changed. I'd suggest going to the ViPER4Android XDA forum and searching for KitKat installs. That forum link is in the OP (first post).

Difference between Viper4Android and Viper4Arise?

I am coming to the modding game after an year or so.. I have been seeing Viper4Arise a lot. I wanted to know whats was the difference between Android and Arise. If it is same, why the same name?
I have being trying to get V4Android working with a few roms. I would also like to know which roms are recommended for V4A or even V4Arise(if it performs as good as V4Android).
I have tried RR v5.8.0 but couldnt get V4Android working on it. Also tried Tugapower which is supposed to have V4Arise preinstalled but was so unstable that I dint get a chance to test Arise out. Currently I am sitting on a wiped phone and waiting for a reply here.
I would prefer a rom on which V4Android/(Arise?) installation is easy and has some customization(optional)
(I would really love it if you could provide a detailed guide for installing V4A if possible)
Thanks for any reply. Have a great day guys!
This worked for me, using magisk, with SELinux enforcing;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-viper4android-fx-2-5-0-5-t3577058
Installed via TWRP rather than using magisk for any of the modules.
I also flashed ahrion's Dolby Atmos module which works alongside V4A.

EDIT: It was my zip that didnt download completely. However, it doesnt work for my bluetooth headphones on Pocophone f1 running LineageOS 16. It works for phone speakers however, and havent tried corded headphones yet.
How to uninstall them? Just flash them again?

AFAIK the only way to uninstall would be to dirty flash your Lineage OS ROM (reinstall Lineage without wiping your data. Just wipe your Cache and Dalvik Cache). This should keep all your apps and settings intact but remove V4A and ARISE and reinstall the stock drivers that come with Lineage. In my case I also had to reinstall Magisk.
---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------
This doesn't work for me on LineageOS for MicroG 16 (Google Pixel XL 'marlin'). ARISE crashes, and V4A tells me I need to reinstall the driver every time I open it. After reinstalling, it tells me I need to reboot. After I reboot, I tells me I need to install the driver again and this loop just continues forever.
Unluckily here doesn't work and crash all the time.
I guess no way to uninstall, right?
I am on latest havoc os for mido...
Thank you

Dirty flash of Rom should remove the mod. But don't you have any remnants of other mods left? Something like that caused crashes to me some time ago. Additionally, I had to remove Audio Modification Library from Magisk to get this work.

Nope, no any other mods installed didn't try anything else before. Probably havoc has dirac inside, but I don't use it because I don't like and I can't remove it I guess.
Tried with and without aml on magisk but it's almost the same. Dolby sometimes works sometimes crash, viper for arise doesn't work at all.

I've been using that version of viper since I got the phone and haven't run into any issues. I do however also have the audio modification library and audio compatibility patch modules installed as well. If those don't help, then I think there is a larger issue.
PS - I've used both the latest stable and the canary Magisk builds without issues.

Ok, so... same as me.
Really, i don't know where to start. I've flashed stock rom wiping everything some days ago. So, my phone is clean. I've the latest Magisk stable and elementalx 1.05.
All i can do is try to dirty flash stock rom again and install twrp, magisk and elementalx and try another time.
About audio compatibily patch, there are really too many options and i don't know where to start to install it correctly..... but i don't think google camera crashes because of that......
Same problem if i install Viper4Android FX Legacy module.

I would be surprised if the audio compatibility patch caused an issue too. Honestly I had forgotten about the initial options that I had to choose when I installed it. I just uninstalled it and reinstalled it and only chose the "notification remover" option and then opted out of the lib use (last option). I use the headphone jack, so I don't need a USB DAC (does this phone even have one?), nor do I use Spotify, etc.
However, it is important to install the audio modification library last. It should find both the Audio Compatibility Patch as well as Viper4Android and patch both to work together. I might suggest that you uninstall it, reboot, and reinstall it to ensure it is actually patching both audio modification. Also, make sure the driver is actually installed in Viper if you end up reinstalling any of these mods as you might find that the driver isn't actually installed. It's a long shot, but perhaps that would fix your issue.
I'm also using the leaked camera version 6.3.017.253834016 currently (because it has the night sight setting as a main option instead of buried in the "more" settings). But this really shouldn't matter and the stock camera app worked just fine too. Viper4Android is always one of the first mods I install on a phone and it has never given me a problem on my 3a XL or caused the camera to stop working.

Tried exactly what you said. Same issue, Google Camera crashes on start. Every V4A version i tried, same thing.... Well, i don't know what to try more..... Asked on official V4A thread but no answer. Is there any way to provide logs to discover what happen?
EDIT: I've attached a logcat, if you know what could be the problem i will be happy
Dirty flashed August factory image, Elementalx, TWRP and Magisk. Same issue. Anyone who can help me taking a look at the logs?
Im on 2.5.0.5 and i have no issues so far with the camera app.
The only issue that i have is that v4a is marked as harmful by Google protect. Anyone else?
Pixel 2 xl user here with the latest viper4android on android 10, same camera app is crashing on me
stock 10 with sultan kernel installed and magisk 20.1

I've never had any real issues getting Viper4Android to work on Android 10, but I understand it is a common issue. Here is a Pixel 4 thread on installing Viper4Android on Android 10 and how they got it to work. The fact that it is on a Pixel 4 device is irrelevant. Perhaps this can help you get the driver installed.
PS - I should mention that I already was using the audio compatibility module and the audio modification module prior to moving to Android 10, so it is quite possible that is why I never experienced any issues.

I am. And the camera started working after disabling the boldbeast module.
