Viper4android help! - Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps

I'm having trouble getting viper4android on my phone, which is a samsung galaxy s6 android 7.0, i understand that i would have to flash a zip file with twrp and change the file: root/system/vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf , but that "audio_effects.conf" file doesnt exist in my phone. I tried to look it up online but no one really had that same problem as far as i know. (I do have my phone rooted with twrp and busybox installed)

[Q] How to install Siupersu on evervolv 3.4 kernel

Hi I'm trying to install above since viper4android wont work with the stock su, but no luck.
I've tried installing from the market per this:
1. Install SuperSU from Play Store.
2. Open SuperSU and grant it SuperUser permissions (important; if you delete SuperUser before you grant rights to SuperSU you lose your root and need to either reflash the ROM or flash the zip I linked above).
3. gone into supersu settings and told it to grant su on boot, and grant to anything in the system folder as well
and I've also tried installing the zip version in recovery. I've also tried using the file manager in recovery to rename the current su binary in system//xbin and put the new one from the zip file in the directory.
Any way I try installing it freezes on boot up and I have to restore a nand to get my TP working again.
Overall loving flintmans new evervolv, it's really smooth, but the sound on the TP is pretty low and crappy sounding without viper4android so it's a pretty big issue for me.
Can anyone help please?
PS I cant find the apk for the current su, maybe thats part of my issue as well. Also Supersu works with 3.4 kernel version of cyanogenmod so its not a kernel issue.

[MM 6.0] Modules don't work even tho the installation was successful

Hi all!
So I recently bought a Cubot Max but cant get any Xposed Modules to work!
Specs:
Cubot Max
Android 6.0
FW v11
arm64
I got the zip and apk off the official thread and used the latest sdk23 arm64 version obviously.
I mainly need the modules "Youtube Adawy" and "Youtube background playback".
But for the sake of testing if the issue is a result of incompatibility I also installed the modules
"PinNotif" and "SlideBack".
None of them worked.
The UI of "SlideBack" seemd to work properly while the UI of Youtube Adaway said that the app was not actived, even tho i tried it several times.
The log file read "cannot read log/data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/log/error.log: open failed: ENOENT" so i created the missing txt file and gave it - rw rw permissions.
Does anyone has a clue what causes this problem?

Exactly I am also facing the same problem.
Same here
Can we have a thread to get the Cubot Max working with Xposed? A 500+ page general thread is difficult to follow. Thanks!
Success!
I did it! This is what I did.
The problem is that there is a firmware error which affects a number of MTK6735 phones and stops Xposed from working. You have to install another module called grorkmod first, but this will not work if you have previously tried to install Xposed. So what I did was set the phone back to its initial state (after backing up data etc.).
1. Download the Custom TWRP and the Cubot Max official ROM from here:
mod edit: link removed
2. Unrar the official ROM, and, using SP Flash Tool, set to "Format and Download", Flash the ROM in full. You will now have an unrooted, untouched factory-set phone.
3. When I did this, the Firmware version (Build Number) was V04 — check this through your system settings as my phone originally arrived with Build Number V09. So, after unzipping the TWRP download, I had to use the older version of the Scatter file. So use SP Flash Tool again, and Flash TWRP and reboot the phone, you will have an unrooted phone but with TWRP installed. Do the usual stuff with becoming a developer and changing the necessary permissions.
4. Now you can transfer files to your phone's memory.
UPDATE-SuperSU-xxx,zip
grorkmod_v1.1+lite.zip
xposed-v87-sdk23-arm64.zip
XposedInstaller_3.1.1.apk
5. Boot to Recovery, and, from TWRP:
(a) Install UPDATE-SuperSU-xxx.zip but do not reboot.
(b) Clear Dalvik cache etc
(c) Install grorkmod do not reboot.
(d) Install xposed — this time reboot.
6. Run your file manager and attempt to install the .apk file. If you are diverted to give permission for this, change the settings and do it again.
Hope this helps.

In the OP I had the ADB_Root_G930U_QE2Files.zip linked to the ADB_Root_G935U_QE2Files.zip zip so please make sure you have the ADB_Root_G930U_QE2Files.zip when downloading. Its fixed in the OP now so just double check
I recommend everyone put the Flashfire AP zip and Rom Zip on your internal storage as the AP file is so large that it may not be read properly do too limitations of some SD Cards. When you select AP file in Firmware there should be 4 partitions that are selected. If not then you have a bad download or need to have AP file on internal storage
Thanks for all your hard work . I just installed this so far so good but I am missing Wi-Fi calling. Is that normal or am I just not looking in the correct place? Thanks

Ok will try that when I get a chance. Thanks again.
Thx for an awesome rom.
Sorry if this question is asked before but couldn't find a solution (checked Verizon thread as well).
I am running Playstore version ROM and everything is working fine except Video Recording.
Photo is fine but when I record a video with included Camera NX, it only plays sound and the screen is either still or black.
I have been taking a needed break. I will update all my s7 roms including this one in the next few days
Nice
That rom can flash for g930p? tks your work!!
@jrkruse
Thanks for all your contributions to this device. I just bought this device and I've been diving through the forums trying to gather as much info on this locked down device.
Could you provide me with just the boot images that don't check the system image and from what model/rom are they from?
Oh and could you provide the partitions locations? The latest roms have an updated Knox that blocks SU from doing it's thing and I have to perform everything via adb (eng boot).
Blank screen
Hello,
I am on your custom rom and the phone was working fine for a day. After I restarted the phone I am not able to see the lockscreen. Its just blank. I do hear the sound of taking a screenshot when I press the buttons and I also can see the " shut down, restart, emg mode" buttons when I hold the power button but no lockscreen. I tried running the recovery boot img but nothing changed.
There is some kind of issue at the locksceen after a restart.
I'm Stuck

I followed the directions up to Step 7.
For the life of me I can not get the AP file to copy to my SD card. Yes I have enough space on it and I can get the ROM copied.
I tried copying the AP file with a file explorer, on my PC, external card reader. Every time I try, it gets to about 95-99% and says "copy failed".
I know it says flashfire only, but is that my only option?

In my case I created a folder named Download in Internal Storage and copied Zip and AP files there. I didn't have trouble coping files there.
From my experience & guess, you may still have old files & settings even though you flashed U-firm files Step 1-2.
Try to access recovery mode and do factory reset and see if this helps. Make sure you backup all important files to External SD because it will factory reset.
So I rooted my phone using Araltd's guide in this forum. I've got a couple of questions about this rom...
1. If I were to flash this rom to my device, would it remove my root access?
2. What's device performance like? After rooting, my device is very slow and buggy. Will this fix that?
3. Will my device still be full of T-Mobile's bloatware?
Thanks!

1. Yes, it will remove Root Access but you can still use ADB to do root stuff like push / pull files.
2. Since it will use stock boot instead of ENG boot, it will fix the lag issue.
3. This is U (universal) firmware so it won't have Tmobile bloat but it will have Samsung bloat/apps. During the install you can also choose de-bloat level too. From my experience BS-Free (2nd one), is both lightweight and stable. If you go with Playstore level (most lightweight, replace Samsung Apps with Google ones), you will have trouble with camera.

Do you know how this rom compares to the QF6 one which seems to be a bit more popular?

The QF6 ROM you mentioned is T-mobile firmware so it will have Tmobile apps. Most of them can be removed from ROM install or disabled after.
Other than that there's no performance difference.
If you want Tmobile like environment with Tmobile update schedule, go with T-mobile one. If you want less carrier apps, go with U-Firmware one.
I will no longer be updating my s7 threads until the time Oreo is released with root method. For now I have worked with @stang5litre to bring my non-root method to his amazing rom. He currently has a nougat release found here http://stang5litre-roms.proboards.com/
I keep getting samsung pay connection error. any fixes? i tried factory reset and reset settings, but the app still doesnt work. do i have to reflash the rom?

If you at any point tried to root it or flashed the modified boot image then you are no longer passing the safteynet checks, my suggestion is to do a clean install and see if it works then try it again making sure you don't root after you are done installing this rom.

[Guide] Deodex SM-T285 (Android 5.1.1, API Level 22)

Hi everybody,
I did not want to flash a custom ROM on my new SM-T285 (Android 5.1.1, API Level 22) so that I could use Xposed.
Instead I deodexed my own stock ROM --without going into boot loop-- using knowledge and tools from XDA members. Below are the steps I took, with the links to where you can find the original member posting and/or their instructions. Please make sure to "thank" the person who posted the information and/or tool
Assuming you are rooted with TWRP installed, these steps will hopefully work for you as well.
STEP 1: Flash Jedid's SM-T285 Kernal (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...rnel-galaxy-tab-7-0-2016-lte-sm-t285-t3474967)
STEP 2: Unpack the system folder from your TWRP nandroid (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53913623&postcount=22)
STEP 3: Understand you will need to get the latest oat2dex.jar file (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61284936&postcount=395)
STEP 4: Understand what deodexing tool works well for Samsung (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68432791&postcount=757)
STEP 5: Download svadev's deodexing tool (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/tool-deodex-tool-android-l-t2972025)
STEP 6: Download latest oat2dex.jar file (https://github.com/testwhat/SmaliEx/releases)
Note: I downloaded all the SmaliEx files and dumped them into the folder with "SVADeodexerForArt.exe" in it (it replaced the oat2dex.jar file too)
STEP 7: When finished using SVADeodexer, create a flashable zip (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65481181&postcount=722)
Note: do not include in your zip, the "Dex" and "Odex" files created by SVADeodexer, just the app, priv-app, and framework folders.
STEP 8: Save the zip file you created to your phone internal memory, and flash via TWRP.
After flashing the new system folder (containing the deodexed folders: app, priv-app, and framework) using TWRP; I cleared the delvik cache and restarted my "tablet." It took a long time to load to the "Android is starting..." screen, and I was eventually able to log in. After logging in, I confirmed the the new system folders installed, and yes, my device is truly deodexed --not a single odex file.
Please note, I am not a developer, and please make sure you create a complete backup before doing anything.
---------------UPDATE (Aug 16, 2017)---------------
My phone/tablet is still working great since I've deodexed it. I have since flashed a custom version of @rovo89 's Xposed framework, which was customized by @wanam. I hope to find time in the near future to compile the outstanding posts where I gained the knowledge on how to do these things, and obtained the resources to do them, and give the authors and developers proper credit. In the meantime, if you own an SM-T285 and are eager to install Xposed, I would suggest starting with wanam's custom Xposed module (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960), which worked for me. The key I found is to use a certain version, which did not cause my phone to boot loop. I'll need to go through my files to confirm which version this was. Additionally, I also recommend debloating using Galaxy Cleaner Lollipop DeBloater from @blaz1nr (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/script-galaxy-cleaner-lollipop-debloater-t3156007). It worked like a charm for me at that point when I used it, having achieved the steps I mentioned above. I did use the script as is, and it really got rid of a lot of stuff I did not know was safe to get rid of.
bro trying your method on my Galaxy Note 3 Neo SM-N750 hl3gxx , running 5.1.1 , but no success , i have used svadev tool , it showed success but when pushing back to system its giving bootloops
used your link for Template zip , that causing bootloop too , so instead of zip , i did copy of app/priv-app/framework to my internal storage , went in TWRP , delete those three folders first from system and pasted the deodex one from internal storage

Can not Extract Zip

I've posted before/then it worked (once)/I deleted etc.
I read in another post to try to install busybox, I can not from the Manager.
I thought I'd screwed up the system R/W in TWRP (this is LineageOS 16.x on a Galaxy S5) but it is R/W.
It's not a critical thing, but does bug me. It's taken a month of twiddling everyday to get the phone JUST where I want it and everything working JUST the way I want them to - except this.
I've been looking for a zip of 19.3 (this did work fine with 18.x) to install via TWRP, but can not find one - I'm assuming that there might have been an error installing 19.x through the manager.
As I'm going to put the whole enchilada on my wifes phone this weekend (I REALLY don't need that to backfire ...), I'd like to figure this out. I have NOT tried installing the zips from recovery, but copied to a PC they are intact and the zip is not damaged.
MANY THANKS!
