[Q] Video Camera Microphone Problem - no audio - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The nexus 1 has two mics, one near the usb port and one on the back.
the video camera uses the one on the back for audio (it actually makes more sense)..
the problem is that this secondary mic is not working on my phone (hardware problem)...
is there any way to force the video camera to use the regular mic ?
i am on CM7..
Thanks,

Recording sound with external mic?

Hello guys!
I m a very happy user of my diamond and this forum...
I was wondering if there is any application that would allow to record using and external mic , plugged in via a usb - 3,5mm jack for example.
Then i can stop carryin my Iriver h340 thats getting pretty heavy!
Isn t there a tool that can also update date and time automatically ?
Thanks in advance and big up for all the cookers!
As far as I know, the Notes application is able to record from an external mic just like the fixed mic. Just go to Menu > View Recording Toolbar.
There are several applications to sync the time, can't think of any off the top of my head.
The supplied headset has an external mic in it, you should be able to hack into it and solder on a jack socket, then plug in any mic. In theory you should also be able to do the same with a BT headset.
You need "synchrotime" to correct time and date via the internet.
these were quick answers!!
I was more thinking about recording rehearsals and concerts , so more like a dedicated application were u can choose the sample rate m and also the format for ex wave or mp3 plus a gain control...
ttttthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnxxxxxxxxxxx
Pardon me for digging up old bones, but I've been searching for an answer to this for a bit now...
Like the OP asked, is there an app out there for recording audio from an external mic plugged into the 3.5mm jack? I own a Samsung Galaxy S (Fascinate) and know that the hardware side of this topic is covered.
The only "Notes" application I have is notebook. I have audio recorder, but that doesn't have any such settings to choose from an external audio source (and I've tried to see if it just switches to that source if it is plugged in, no luck).
This would make life so much easier for me if I could pull this off. I'd pay for a decent app that covered that.

In a twist to this question/ request.
I am and have been looking for an app also that will be able to utilize the external mic 3.5 mm jack to record audio to the built-in video application.
NATIVE! not hacked or Jerry-rigged. I tried this by plugging in a headset /mic to the external mic port on an EVO and HTC Incredible and it still seemed to use the regular mic on the phone not the 3.5 mm jack.
I'd like to use my incredible/ EVO/ (and rumored HTC Incredible HD) to be able to connect a lapel mic with transmitter and receiver so audio sounds local without echo from a distance.
Plus I could have 2 people miced up and one video camera.
There is no reason why this shouldn't work.
We are not talking power just software access.
If the notes apps uses it to record why can't the video app use the same port.

Way to record audio on Android using external mic
Hi.
You have to buy adapter which will split the signal for microphone in and audio out (you probably know 3.5 jack in your phone is 2 directional as it supports headset with mic)
You can try to look for it on Amazon (headset buddy)
or solder into headset in the pins which are responsible for mic signal.
Then,
I know only 1 app for android which supports recording from external microphone:
Arabela Audio Recorder - choose DEFAULT audio source and it should catch the signal from external mic connected through adapter via 3.5 jack.
I THINK it can catch the audio while recording video because it works in background ... so later you will be able to remove the audio from video recording and join it with the one you recorded using Arabela with some kind of video editor
regards
If you need a adapter for the phone, then check what i did here in this thread:

There are also link to a app which can record video with the external microphone

I think any mic with 4 pole jack should work without any adapters. Like the one's used on iphones etc. Check on ebay for iphone microphone. I ordered a cheap one $1.80 just to test on my SGSII but im 99% it's going to be working. There are some high quality for about $30 as well. Like this one HERE

Headset Microphone on Video Recording / Snapchat

I have one major issue with P20 Pro. When I connect the headset that comes with the phone and use it for Video recording and snapchat, it doesn't get the voice from the headset mic, still it uses the main phone mic.
There is a camera app called Open Camera which resolve the issue if I want to use the Video recording but the main Camera app still lack this ability. The main issue for me is the snapchat.
Is there a way around this ?

Note 9 Mic Problem

Hi Guys. I am trying to use a Type C Mic on my note 9.
When I record audio on the voice recorder app, the Type C mic works perfectly.
When I try to record a video using the Note 9 camera, the phone picks the audio from the internal mic, instead of the Type C; even though when I start to record the phone says "recording audio from USD mic"
I tried restarting but the problem continues
Any ideas?
Thanks
UpdateL
I downloaded an app to record video from my phone, and the mic works well with it.
The problem is happening only when I try to use the phone's camera to record, which I would prefer to use. When I use the phone's camera grabs the sound from the phone mic, instead of the external Type C. The phone still says "recording audio from external usb mic" but is not doing it

It could be that the default camera app, which comes with the Note 9 does not support the use of external mics

Question After last updates external mic not more work in many applications.

- If I plug my USB-C lavalier and record a video with the camera app, now I hear only a rustle.
- If I use it in the Logitech Mevo or Logitech Mevo Multicam application connected to the external camera, (it has worked for months) plugged mic no longer works.
I'm going crazy and as I need urgently it to get my channel going for the outdoor streamings I'm really thinking of selling it and going back to the Pixels.
I can only use the recorder application whith my mic it works correctly so the microphone is not broken but there is something in external mic recognitions with other apps (like camera and others)
There is no technical support
