[Q] Video Recording with external Mic - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I'm using a rooted vivid with Holiraider .25 Sense 3.5
I enjoyed my evanescence concert today, Recording in 1080P with supreme quality.. EXCEPT! The sound is crap. Using the internal Microphone on my HTC Aria wasnt half bad, i know the 5mp cam sucked.. It sounded way better than the audio my vivid recorded..
So my question.. Can The stock camera app, record audio from an external 4 pole mic? AND if So what is a decent 2 Ch or 5 Ch microphone for it. Price being under 150$.

Bump. Would like an answer

Well you would have to take a chance and try. You would most likely want to try one of the mics that plug into the head phone jack, and from there see if audio is still the same. check amazon..

Any update?

sound quality

Hi!
I am using HTC Touch Diamond for last 6 months now. I have found that the sound quality without headphones is very poor. is it a problem or fact with all the devices. sound quality with headphones is superb.
well the speaker inside phones are tiny
one can't expect them to give anything but a triple-ridden sound torture

[Q] Built in speaker(s)?

As you all Optimus 2X owners can see there is two "speaker" holes with a net under the phone on each side of the Micro USB. Is these both holes suppose to be for speakers, or is one of them (the left one) just for mic?
I have sound only on the right one, and has been thinking about this for a while now...
I am not the only one with this right?
One is speaker, the other is the mic.

phew.. my speaker is not out of function then thanks for fast reply.
I was reading the manual too, but that didnt say where the speaker is...
This was one of the first things I noticed on the phone when I bought it... you would think that there should be dual speakers stereo sound on a dual core phone
Yeah, kind of bad it isn't stereo on such a high-end phone... But then again, the iphone 4 is constructed the exact same way and that's the most expensive phone there is. My old N900 had 2 speakers, one on either side, it did enhance movie watching somewhat, but mostly I just use headset anyway so doesn't really matter.

Audio Quality

Is the LG O4X audio quality & volume through headphones really that bad? I've read GSMarena's review as they've now posted the audio part of the review. They said it possibly one of the worst devices they've tested
This will be a deal breaker for me. :-( what do you guys think?
Any previous GSII ownes in here that can provide input on personal opinions between the quality of the two?

Audio quality seems fine to me. GSMArena suspected they had a faulty unit, and said they would try another but I have yet to see an update to the review to reflect this.
I did see that but thought what is the chance of them receiving a faulty unit. Im currently using a Galaxy S II, and the audio quality via music player suits me. I reappy want the 4X as its a sexy beast, just wouldn't be able to cope with crap music quality.

The sound quality is pretty good on the 4x. I upgraded after breaking my milestone and I was also iffy on buying the 4x because of the gsm review... when I tested it out, it sorta felt like my entire phone became a speaker but it instantly became muffled when I covered the grill. Black magic is at work here lol
Im on about through the headphones lol

Oudio output is fine for me too, though not as good as the One X, a little louder would not be a bad thing, but overall as good as other smartphones in the segment.
It is, once again, fine. Satisfactory. I don't like in-ear headsets so I just use the ones that came with my milestone 2 years ago >_> I did try the headphones that were in the box though, they unlock some eq presets along with an option to manually tweak the levels. But plugging in any headphones will unlock that.
...as good as the other six smartphones I use, honestly. I always check music quality through my $500 akg closed headphones with quite a range of high quality files and the 4x sounds really fine, absolutely no problem here.
Just bought 4X to replace my 3.5" iPhone 4S, everything is fine except the sound quality which I must say is terrible compared with iPhone especially when using the built in speaker Maybe it's because the speaker is at the back of the phone

What if you set the O4X on its front so that the speaker grill is facing upwards? Will it be not as terrible? Is it really that bad compared to iPhone 4S?

Only the sound is louder, quality won't improve no matter where you face the speaker. Apart from Moto's Raxx, iphone's sound quality is excelent (from my own experiece).
I downloaded Poweramp as recmmended by local forum here to my 4X and the sound quality improves a little bit.

ok the sound of the built-in speaker is poor, but with headphones, for me, the sound is great. I don't think it's very exciting listen music with the speacker ......
Use the right headphones (i got a HTC set) and download the POWERAMP app...
Gives what u need
hi guys, what about the call quality? is it loud n clear on speakers?
It's okay. I went through a few phone calls and I didn't experience any problems and have no complaints.
Although... has anyone else noticed that the voice for navigation is kinda quiet? I turned it up to max and drove a few suburbs over but I felt like it was a bit too gentle for a car environment.
Music over bluetooth, Motorola Motorokr s305 stereo headphone & headset works good. But dolby mobile setting stutters (to bad, cause I liked the sound). I now use the headphone amplifier setting. Also good, but not as loud as Dolby mobile.

Did anybody try the headphone out with high-end multidriver iems (Like Shure SE535, Phonak PF232 or Westone UM3x...)?
I'm an iPhone 4S user and the headphone out is almost perfect when listen thru my UM3x. Hence i was wondering if the 4X would be close in terms of noise floor, resolution and frequency response.
Thanks in advance

If the TF10 sounds good and you have your treble then output impedance of the LG must be quite low which is a great thing.
Could you fill me in about the noise floor (Noise that you can hear when you pause the music till the amp section shuts off).
Thanks a lot
Audio quality problem
I sometimes hear below average audio quality and I have to re-insert my head phone to get normal audio. Do any body facing this problem

HDR Mic (Nokia?)

What ever happened to the microphone issue on this phone? Some time ago, Nokia won an injunction against HTC, and they supposedly were to stop using the microphone in their phone - once the stock HTC had in their warehouse depleted. Is that still the case? Do newer HTC Ones not have the better quality microphones? How is the recording capability in concerts/loud audio environments on the newer HTC Ones?
Do we know if the HTC M8 is going to have a good microphone for recording loud audio?
Does anybody have any idea?

[Q] HTC One Mini 2 Dual Membrane Mic / HDR Mic?

Hi All,
I have the HTC One M8 and as we all know the phone recording amazingly in a loud concert.
Does the HTC One Mini 2 have the same capability?

I'm interested too in this feature!! Anybody?
My guess is it does, here is a video I recorded at a madness concert and was very happy with the results of the audio, my friends iPhone 5c didn't do well at all. https://youtu.be/qWPZEpu9VZI
Thanks for the video, like that indeed it has a quality mic. Very good sound, and nice music
