Hey guys so I was wondering if there's any app that can control how much gain the mic gets during videos. I go to concerts a lot and what I really missed about the stock ROM was its dynamic gain, but in AOSP that can become an issue. Does anyone know of any apps or mods that can rememdy this issue? I'm rooted on 6.0.1. Thanks for the help.

Can anyone suggest why I no longer get the camera shutter sound? It doesn't work with the stock camera app (I mean the one that comes with the ROM I'm using) or third party ones. I can't find any settings disabled.
I recently had a repair done at Samsung which involved replacing the motherboard. I didn't test every single setting and function when I got it back so am tempted to assume it is related to the repair but I could be wrong.
The camera is rooted and I'm using the Ultimate XXLT4 JB 4.1.2 v6
Thanks in advance

Camera shutter sound adendum
Has no one else come across this? Most posts about the shutter sound are about how to turn it off so I guess my problem is unique. I checked that the /system/media/audio/ui/shuter.ogg file is there. It is and I can play it manually with the stock music player. Other than that, I've no idea how to fix this. All othet system sounds and alerts sem to work ok.
I'm still hoping some expert out there can help.

Hello. When you mean you don't get a shutter sound, does that mean that in camera/setting/shutter sound already enabled but no sound? please note that music or notification volume level (I forgot which one) also play a part. If your volume level is 0 or very low, the sound will not be heard. This was a trick to eliminate shutter shound back in the days when the option to disable is not there.

Thanks for replying. This was the first thing I checked.
There's no option to enable/ disable shutter sound in the stock camera app I'm using and I imagine this is why so many people were asking how to disable the sound. Can't recall if I ever saw that in the settings menu. I also have an app called CameraPro which has an Enable Shutter Sound. This is enabled but , makes no difference. It's possible I'm using an older version of the stock cameras app but it seems to me this is not the cause as it makes no difference which camera app I use.
Thanks again.

I managed to fix this by installing the jobnik_Camera_Note_JB_Mod_v8_cwm.zip.

Now both my camera apps have shutter sound enabled. Still don't know what happened since the previous version of the app worked fine before but that's often the way with computers: just happy to fix the problem in the end.
Thanks

Thank you so much.
FIRST: THIS ONLY APPLIES TO SONY'S STOCK FIRMWARE, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW IT'S ON CUSTOM ROMS! THIS WILL NOT FIX ANY HARDWARE ISSUES!
Hey guys, a quick advice for you concerning the noise during video capture/sound recording:
Recording sound(via app or video) didn't work although I wasn't rooted so all system apps should still be there. I thought it was some kind of bug. Then, by coincidence, I found a little app that I seem to have deactivated which is called "Sound recorder"(or similar). Just activating it once again solved my problem. It's no dedicated sound recording app, it won't show up on the app drawer. It's needed by sound recording and video apps.
I hope it may be helpful for somebody who did the same mistake as I and wondered why the sound in video captures was...just not there
Cheers!
unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. video recording after activating the app still no go
thx for the suggestion though
Hello
Looking to give an aosp based rom a try despite the poorer sound quality that is to be expected. Quite a few recommend Viper4Android from the Play store.
Can anyone recommend some optimal settings for this app to help boost the sound volume and quality, including what driver options to use when installing the app?
Many thanks.
I have some questions for the Huawei P9 users out there... We are trying to use to P9 in a class and want to use an external mic (Rode smartLAV) to record audio during video recordings. I know this has been asked in this thread but it seems like there wasn't an answer then.
The stock video recording app in MM doesn't have any way to select audio capture source, and it looks like other apps like Filmic Plus don't work either. However, I know it can be used because the audio recording app works just fine with the mic.
Here are some questions for you all:
Does Nougat fix this? Is there a way to use an external mic in Android 7 for video?
Do any custom ROMs provide this functionality?
Do any video recording apps allow for external mic input? Cinema FV-5 doesn't work for our phone unfortunately. Any others?
Thanks very much for your help!

For now if you wanna listen music just use MIUI ROM because for now, most custom rom have a bad sound bug if use headphones uses jack port. For Bluetooth i don't know tho, i never use a Bluetooth headphones before so i can't tell, but i think the bug will affect Bluetooth too.
There is a great sound mod called "Ainur Sauron"
Here is the link:

You just have to flash it, no need to setup anything else
I don't think it is compatible with MIUI
So you can try flashing it on a custom ROM
I've been using it for a while now, and my audio output improved greatly.
Hope this helps

Are you on earphones when the volume lowers? If so, maybe the V4A setting called "auditory system protection" causes it. Also, disable notification sounds/enable silent mode while you are playing music, or change the Poweramp audio focus setting (Poweramp -> settings -> audio -> untick Short Audio Focus change)
I used to have the same problem as you, when I was using Xtreme music mod and Dolby Atmos.

Can i flash this over dolby atmos? I need louder sound quality especially for dialogues through speakers. Dolby is already doing a great job. Should this one do any improvement? Or should i uninstall dolby and flash this? Need louder sound on speakers

This mod is compatible with all other audio mods, but make a backup of your system in case anything goes wrong. Try flashing it over your Dolby
I tried flashing Ainur first then Dolby, the Dolby app crashed.
