Hi,
I seem to be having trouble with background hardware services (specifically the cameras and bluetooth mics):
1. Bluetooth headset calls through messenger apps like viber or whatsapp loses use of the microphone around 1 minute into a call (like being muted). I have to unlock the screen and switch back to the app to get microphone use back.
2. The background video recording app (SCOS) loses control of the cameras (both front and back) and cannot use it (maybe cannot instantiate?) around a minute after the screen is turned off. Switching cameras or restarting the app is the only fix.
I have already disabled the Battery Optimization for the concerned apps, plus as many services as I can find, but still the problem persists. The only solution is to keep the screen on, which nullifies the point of using a headset and a background video recorder.
This seems to be connected with Android P's new privacy settings
Anyone have an idea how to solve this?

Well I have been playing around with a TON of apps on the watch over the last few days and have stumbled across what looks like a security feature when trying to shoot video, look below:

Something else strange is that with every app the camera makes the same shutter sound, even with the sound mode off on the app.
I know there is a way now to turn the shutter sound completely off, I just found it very odd that the sound would continue to play even in 3rd party apps with the noise turned off.
Anyone find a good camera to use with the watch that will get around the 15sec file limit? Not looking to max the memory out with a single recording, but something in the 20-30sec range would be nice.
Hi,
I'm often using my Note 3 as multifunction car device - camera recording, bluetooth music streaming, recording GPS track and running navigation - all at the same time while the screen is on... Problem is, when I get a text or mail, I don't get notification on Gear - because my Note 3 is having screen on. Is there any way to change it? I want to see navi app on Note 3 and get my notifications on my wrist...
Perhaps a fake "screen off" process?

I don't think so.
I have a problem with static noise and suspect it is the LCD.
To test this theory, i need an app that will turn off the screen but not put the unit in standby.
Seems all the apps i tested so far, put the unit to sleep i.e. music stops playing in background when screen is off.
I need to switch screen off and not just blacken to test theory.
Any ideas for an app, or script that can do this please?
Hi, I recently baught a tablet Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 plus. And there is a strange issue with it. After installing some communication and chat software no matter what, everything is working perfecly with microphone, Camera can record video etc. But at some point (sorry can't spot the exact problem), when I plug headphones into the tablet or something else. When try to record video from normal camera or Open camera software the sound is gone. It seems like no microphone is present or something else suppress it. Every other app is working perfectly fine (skype, viber, messenger...), every of installed applications has full capabilities for talking with and without video. Camera and microphone are working fine there. Since I reset the tablet with factory settings all goes normal and camera can again record audio without issues. But at some point camera no longer can record audio. I also tried to change some app permisssions from settings but it doesn't help. So do you have any idea what can cause the problem?
Best regards
Hey there,
If i want to switch to another app during a video call (in facebook messenger), the face camera turns off and back inside the mobile.
It was not happening with my previous phone, i mean the camera was still running whenever i was switching on another app during the call so my friend could continue to see me.
Is there any way to fix this issue ?
Thanks.
