Why is this?
it doesn't seem to use too much CPU or memory (using coreplayer). as soon as i pause the music, diamond is lag free. as soon as i resume, its a lag fest.
is there a tweak for this somewhere? I did spend some time searching and browsing for an answer, but i dont have all day
it's absolutely normal that your diamond lags out, mine does that too. However core player is a heavy program just to listen to music, try using HTC Audio Player wich is lighter
Hi!
I have an really annoying audio issue, I hope there's a solution.
Background:
Being an insomniac I use my phone w. in-ear-plugs (Bose IE2) to listen to audiobooks and watching videos until I fall asleep.
I bought the Note for the big screen and the awesome hardware audio/video support, and just for trying something new, (I've been using iPhones since it's first release but felt like upgrading from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 4s wasn't worth it) so the Note is my first Android phone.
The Problem:
When playing audiobooks, videos and music at low volumes it's like the phone ”auto-mutes” when the source audio have low volume or total silence. Then there's a click or a static and a very short delay when the audio returns. It's really annoying when listening to i.e. audiobook where it's much silence, like between sentences and sometimes words.
It doesn't appear when listening to more moderate volumes, just in the bottom 20% of the volume slider.
I've tried a bunch of different players... it's all the same. Doesn’t matter if its a local file or LAN.
Gingerbread 2.3.6 XBKK4, not rooted or anything.
Anyone know of a cure for my phone, or a good sleep-therapist....
Hey.
There was a time when I had a iPhone. There I was used to listening music in the car while using navigation. When navi had something to say it automatically lowered the music by approximately 50% and gave is advices. This is really handy and seems professional. Since Samsung s2 I had several android phones and the fact that it just mutes music totally makes me crazy sometimes. Is there a mod or do you know about a player which acts the way I want?
Would be awesome!
The Z1 music app Walkman does this, it just lower the sound and reproduce what it needs and then come back to normal.....
Before in them days sony ericsson walkman were the best music phones in the whole world now sony walkman have died by going into android which limited all the music hardware like the quality is really poor even with different EQ and main thing is it doesn't have crossfeed listening effect instead the phones now these days have stereo sound output where all the sounds like instruments and vocals are switching from left to right channel not producing the sound to be in one place, this is really annoying especially when sleeping with relax music.
Does anyone know why they never put this effect in the mobile phones now these days and is there any phones out there have this crossfeed option?
Couple of questions. So far, I absolutely love my Nexus 6, however I have a couple of questions/quibbles.
Firstly, the volume on this thing. How quiet/loud is it supposed to be? When it's in the low end scales it's very, very quiet, middle is passable, loud is good, but is the quieter levels supposed to be so quiet? I compared it to an iPad 3 and that speaker is louder overall, I assumed the Nexus 6 would be louder everywhere (highest level very loud, lower end quiet but loud enough to hear) than the 3 year old iPad?
Secondly, the microphone. I'm a little confused by it. In videos I've recorded the mic volume is good enough, but using WhatsApp I things I've recorded sound quiet, at least compared to iPhone recordings (friends have iPhone's), and then it's slightly better in "Easy Voice Recorder", unless I whack up the gain on it.
What's the deal? Or are all Nexus 6's like this?
Also, what's the battery life supposed to be like?
I'm on fairly low brightness, auto adaptive brightness or whatever is off. Unplugged at 8am, its been 12 hours. On 22%. Used the phone 20mins browsing internet going to work, stuck in my drawer till 1pm with occasional checks, 20mins used it playing Jetpack Joyride/internet browsing, home from about 4, been playing music on and off through Google Play, couple of YouTube videos, browsing the web etc, nothing too intensive, and I'm on 22%. Does that sound right?
Anybody?
Yeah, you my friend have had the 2 most common problems with the nexus which come standard with the device. For battery, you need to get a kernel with intelliplug and enable it over the stock mp decision. You can even overclock with battery life better than stock. (Like me) For audio, try to find a kernel with faux sound, download viper4android for music, and change some values around in mixer.paths.xml. You need to be rooted with a recovery first before any of this. The problem with video recording is that it is also recorded in mono instead of stereo. Weird but I have been able to fix all of these problems now. If you need any help, quote me. Please give a thanks if I solved your issues.
Thanks for reply.
So what I've described aren't necessarily problems as such, they're just standard on the phone? The battery is okay it's just not amazing. I'm on 50% now, unplugged 14 hours ago, used it for a bit of internet browsing, texting. Was on standby for about 9 hours and was on a call this morning for about half an hour and then I've done some more browsing and texting today. I'm also on adaptive brightness.
Does this sound right?
And the microphone, if I use it on WhatsApp, people keep saying it sounds clear, it's just very low. But again, if I record a video it comes through fine.
Is this normal to Nexus 6's or is there something wrong with my mic?
really low here to in whatsapp, can somone please help us? i do not want to have to send my phone back!

Same issue here. The mic volume in all IM apps like whatsapp, Skype and etc are very very low. However the voice in the recorded video is OK.

yep thats what im getting....anyone else?
Yeah that's really annoying. The problem is, that the N6 use the mic at the bottom on the rear site. If want to make a videochat with the frontcam it's really stupid.
Normally it use the rear mic to reduce background noise. But this seems to work only with telephone calls?
Did anyone ever solve this problem?
Would a Bluetooth headset be a "fix"?

It is default mechanism.
You can install 3rd party Sound recording app and forward recordings to them.
