Has anybody attempted to record live broadcast on this device either using Spirit UL or other 3rd party dedicated method (like stereomix)?
Sony Xperia models can use Recforge app, Samsung have it naturally integrated. I never had HTC before so I can't really compare with other models. Am interested in this phone but can't buy before completely being sure it can record live OTA FM in high enough quality and most important in Stereo!
Would appreciate any answer.

As you may have heard, Nokia basically got an injunction against the manufacturer of the HDR microphone used in the HTC ONE, that prohibits HTC from manufacturing new handsets with the mic and forces them to find a different and presumably inferior-tech microphone. They are allowed to sell out the stock that had already been manufactured with the HDR mic, though. (See here: http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/02/htc-hdr-mic-dropped/ )
Anyone know how to find out if your HW revision has this mic or doesn't?
Furthermore, I am wondering if this tech has anything to do with the problem brought up here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2262648 and here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261202
We should all have that mic. My guess is they probably havent even shipped the phones with the different mics yet. Im sure the stock that they have is a huge number.
Now that micro$oft is acquiring nokia does this mean the haac microphone technology that stmicroelectronics sold to htc early this year will never make it into future non-nokia devices? I know that agreement between nokia and stmicro was until the middle of 2014 but with ms taking over the nokia smartphone division in this same year I doubt they would want to license out anything to potential competitors. I guess the htc ones with these mics are about to become even more valuable. My real question is do existing htc ones still have the dual membrane microphones? Htc did remove this feature from the official specs page but hdr video recording is still listed on the back of every htc one box from what I have seen so I am assuming they still have stock. And if they still have stock will there be enough for when the one max comes out later this year? I'm a noob not only to this forum but to a lot of cell phone tech and tech terminology so if anyone had any opinions or answers I would appreciate the input. Thanks.

The mics were supposed to be removed from all future HTC One's as the tech was sold to HTC without proper licencing (they didnt go through Nokia) so i doubt the Max was ever supposed to use it. As for HDR recording I dont see what that has to do with the mic technology. HDR is typically a term used for lighting.

I recently read a thread here in the htc one forum that the way to know if you have the nokia microphone in your one was if it said hdr video on the back of the box. I guess that person who said that was mistaken.
HDR means high dynamic range... It commonly refers to an audio or video sensor's sensitivity to high and low inputs, whether sound or luminance.
I have a launch day One, and get impressive high spl audio recordings on video clips. I had an old thread around somewhere trying to figure out if the mics required special drivers, since audio only recording apps didn't sound as good as video from the HTC camera app...

Thanks for that clarification. I am really only familiar with HDR from gaming which refers to lighting processing.

It's actually the same thing. Audio and video are branches of signal processing, with techniques used in both cases. 1D vs. 2D signal processing.
None of the HTC One boxes I have seen mention anything about the microphone on them.
Closed, next time please read the rules before posting.
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?
I need ur opinion guys....., is it GREAT CAMERA? I mean leaving every other thing aside is it a good camera cus I already have android devices and I need a good camera
Yes, it's great camera with poor support

I agree, it does take great pictures and has the best LCD screen you can imagine for a camera. But sadly Samsung have lost all interest in supporting it, software features on the Galaxy Zoom and Note 3 are better and run higher version of Android.
If you can get one for a good price then go for it. I still love the camera but wish it would receive updates to fix interface lag issues.

Yes awesome camera, I use it daily and the Android features are a benefit that come in handy more then you may think. I also am disappointed the there has been no support for the camera. I would still buy the camera again, however mabey wait until the new one is released so you at least get a newer version of Android and more features and better chance of support from Samsung. I love this camera so much that I am actually considering purchasing the Galaxy NX instead of a DSLR here soon.
My camera no has dust inside and the image is affected...

Would this camera be a good device for streaming over the ustream app or using to add to a hangout? I want to stream speakers at meetings. Also does it have a mic port for a shotgun mic?

It does not have a mic port.
It does have a mini-HDMI -port, headphones jack (of course) and the default mini-USB -port (2nd of course
Also experiencing that interface lagging and it's quite annoying when you should be able to take a pic fast, without no waiting. I've done 1 factory reset to my device, it helped a bit.
I believe you can use an external mic with an adapter via the headphone jack. You'll need an iphone/ipad mic adapter and then it will work with any standard mic. I know I'm responding to this thread late, but the Galaxy Camera 2 has been out for a while and is already being discounted. It's running Android 4.3 and I'm not really experiencing any interface lag at all. For better battery life and other features I wish it was Kitkat, but JB 4.3 is definitely good enough.

Hello. guys! I am thinking of buying a new (or even used) HTC One, especially for the dual HDR mic's loud environment recording capabilities. I have heard about the HTC - Nokia mic thing and I want to make sure that what I buy does have those awesome mic's. Is there a way to check that before I actually go to a concert/club?
