[Q] audio distortion when video recording

i was at a concert.....was recording one of the songs.....however on playback, it had an awful audio quality....too much of distortion like the speakers blew up or something......my friend had an iphone 4 and another had the n8.....for them audio was perfect.......i only encountered this problem at concerts......my other normal videos are fine
i am very pissed at this!!!
is this a hardware problem or software????

Yes, it's a known issue and it doesn't look like Samsung is going to do anything about it... You can try going to a service department and go for a repair but if it's the mic itself another one isn't going to fix it.
It seems that some other apps (can't remember the name now) are able to record more properly so hoping for a software fix in the future (and more in the way of CyanogenMod then a fix by samsung).

Bump - remains a problem. I have all latest froyo/updates, Galaxy S.
Have recorded video alongside a friend with iPhone. His phone = great audio, mine = solid hash of distortion, unrecognizable original sound.
Has ANYTHING been done about this????
Call quality is ok - definitely not the same problem.
To be clear - I am not looking for an audio-only recording solution, but one that fixes the quality of audio in video recording.

Hi,
i found something by installing voodoo sound kernel and the voodoo control app.
You can change microphone recording settings to "Loud enviroment -with DRC"

[Q] is there a way that can improve the sound quality of NC?

HI,
I read some comments regarding sound quality of NC. It seems that some guys who use CM7 complained about bad sound quality. Is this true??? I am now using the booted 1.1 version and find that sound quality is average but at least not bad. Compare to my another android cellphone Moto Defy, the sound quality of NC is poor.
Is there a way that can improve sound quality of NC?
Is the sound quality of CM7 really worse than the stock version???

Sound quality or volume? I hear about people complaining about the volume, but not quality. How's the quality with earphones? Is it just the speaker?
I always use my NC in a case when I'm watching a movie or playing music, as it GREATLY amplifies the volume. Quality I haven't noticed an issue with, but never really done any critical listening, always just background music.

Earphone is better than speaker.....regarding the speaker....I think the only way I can hear the sound from the speaker is to stay at home...
I am always listening music when I am reading via NC. I am not satisfied with the sound quality compared to my another android cellphone. So I think about a way to improve sound quality. I want to play lossless audio music like APE & FLAC on the NC but I dont know how.........

On cm7 u can use dsp manager, it can improve quality by a great extent( use speaker volume to adjust headphones volume too).

If it's volume of the NC that you're concerned about, use volume+ app from http://androidaudiohacks.com/home/volume-gingerbread
But if you mean the quality, then I'm equally clueless about what to do.

Bad audio on camera record

i have very bad audio when camera record.
on 2.3.6 audio on record video no problem.
on 4.1.2 very very bed
sorry for my bad english

Define bad audio?
I myself just upgraded to JB and have no problems with audio in video recording .
Are you using any custom kernels? ROMs?

I tried several kernels and all is isto.se occurs some noise and quiet

Hi,
I am sorry but I really don't understand you.
Whats the problem with the audio? Define "bad audio".

too quiet and listen to the cracking or noise

I am guessing you are talking about the speaker.
1) How about the phones speaker on the front (the one you use when you talk normally on the phone), is this also having trouble?
2) Did you try to use any scripts to boost audio (there are several kernels allowing this)?
3) Is it just on recorded video, or any audio you try to play (like a mp3 file)?
4) Do you have the i9070 or i9070P?
5) If the problem occurs only when recording video, more likely the problem is with your microphone. Do you also have problems when on phone calls?
6) which kernel and ROM are you currently using?

just on recorded video
i have i9070 stock rom,a try coCore ThunderZap,siri kernels.
with 2.3.6 rom on recorded video audio was perfect.

Have you tried doing just a voice recording and see what the results are?

I tried only audio,the result is the same,too quiet and listen to the cracking or noise

Do factory reset, if that do not help reinstall firmware again and see if it gets better. Or maybe it is hardware problem that happend somehow just when you changed system.

[Q] Very low sound in video recording

i got very very low sound when recording videos with my xperia z
im using cm11 custom rom and i tried many many different roms and kernels and the issue still exist
tried fauxsound to increase the camcoder mic gain and its didnt work
the device mic is fine ( i think ) i dont face any problem while making calls and im sure its fine and sensitive enough
the problem only on video and sound recorder
any help ?

Does anybody know how to increase sound?

Headphone audio quality different ROMs and how can I make a ROM sound like another?

I would like to know how audio processing in Android works.
For the last three months I've tried out many different ROMs for the Xiaomi Mi 3. One of the most important aspects of a ROM for me is the headphone sound quality, since I use my device most for listening music on my Shure SE215's. I have noticed that there is a huge different in headphone sound between ROMs. MIUI kitkat sounds nothing like Cyanogenmod 12.1, which sounds nothing like Cyanogenmod 13.0, which sounds nothing like Mokee 6.0.1. In my opinion my headphones sound best with Mokee 6.0.1. No muddy lows or an unpleasant harsh sound, but a nicely balanced sound with especially the mids and highs sounding gorgeous and way better than CM13.0 which is my daily driver at the moment. What does a ROM do to an audio file before sending a direct signal to the earphone? Does the kernel play a role? I'm not interested in speaker sound, only headphones. And is it possible to export whatever makes Mokee 6.0.1 sound so good to Cyanogenmod 13.0?
Help me out here!

why not just use viperfx and tweak it how you like?

Tried that first thing, but it somehow heavily increased ambient noise. Everything worked properly in Viper, but no matter how much I tweaked it, I wasn't able to get the sound Mokee produces. There was also a profile for my particular in-ear monitors that's supposed to make it compensate and sound flat, but that really decreased the sound stage a lot. Might be that Viper4Android induces a phase shift or increases audio latency. I'm not familiar with the terms that audiophiles use, so I have no idea how to describe the change in sound (even if the frequency response is similar). I also tried using AudioFX which is built into Cyanogenmod to equalize it to a sound signature I prefer, but whatever I do. I can't get it to sound similar to Mokee. Cyanogenmod sounded the same as Mokee about a month ago, but then the sound drivers for the Mi 3 got all messed up when they imported the Dirac profiles from MIUI, which probably just adds a huge load of post processing to the audio and adds some bass and whatever most people like, but it annoys me a lot. So I guess my last option to get a nice headphone experience is to unpack Cyanogenmod, replace the audio files and libraries with those from Mokee and repack the zip. But which files?
