why is recording mic is good on all apps and is actually very high on some (phone app) in AOSP roms like carbon rom and all those roms
but when it comes to whatsapp! the recording is very very low I shove the phone down my throat and yell and still maybe get to 25% volume loudness compared to stock rom!?
is there a fix for this? I am addicted to AOSP roms cuz they are A LOT snappier than sony software and this issue really kills
and before any one jumps and says "record on a recording app and attach the file in whatsapp" its not so easy talking to some one urgently (other wise I would take my time typing) and have to use different apps and keep going back and forth... i need a fix please
This can be fixed by adjusting mixer_paths.xml in /system/etc

Same problem here. The question is: Which one? There are so many mixer_paths. As a non-professional it's hard to choose the right one.

This old thread saved me! Thanks a lot [email protected], you fixed my low whatsapp volume (video and voice messages) problem with your .xml file.
First had trouble opening it on my phone, FX Eplorer was showing an error at opening. Had to copy/paste text and save as .txt, then change it back as .xml on my phone. And it worked like a charm after a reboot.
So cheers! :victory:

Hello all,
is there any way to turn off auto focus on video recording? To make a video with auto focus on is very sad. I hope someone of you has an idea.
There might be a solution in the future and the person working on it started this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104051
Furthermore, I heard that the T-mobile version of the SGS2 has a camera.apk that does not have focus problems - even on GSM Arena they say that the PRE-Focus on record bug is also gone.
I am hoping that maybe someone can rip the camera.apk (deodiex it) from the stock SGS2 T-mobile firmware and try it on our phone as they have the exact same camera modules and shared lib's.
Until then - we will probably have to wait till Potatoman gets back to working on his mod.
Are there any news about turning off the auto focus?
I'm also very interested in it. Hope that someone could port it for us

yes.. i can off autofocus but not worked exposition.. For detales (how this in real life) we can see program LGCamera
MIUI has a simple option to turn it off during video. I know this won't help you.. Just sayin'
Maybe it will be helpful to get the camera.apk from the MIUI Rom?

Hey
I'm searching for CustomROM's that have the Noise Reduction set to OFF by default or have the possibility to install a mod for this ? If you are on a ROM that have this feature, plz post it here.
Thx alot
Mines not set to off by default,you set it yourself when you hit the menu tab during a call.Theres a call recordind mod file also.Take a look if you like.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290468
Yeah. I know that is possible to switch it off during the call. But it's just annoying to do this in each call. Because of that, i was searching for a solution to have it off by default. But thanks anyway for the reply.

See this thread. It can offer details on how to recompile phone.apk to have NR off by default (except for the first call only after a reboot). If you browse the thread, some people have posted their recompiled .apk's with this feature. (NR off by default)
EDIT: I followed the link from cooza above; that ROM has this mod built into it. So he essentially gave you what you are asking for.
Has anyone got two way voice recording working on any of the ICS releases, whether a MOD or a 3rd Party app?
I tried a couple (killer mobile and call recorder) but no luck.
same here. call recorder always worked 100%
Anyone? Still can't find one that will work....aaarrrggg.
I would like to know too. I heard Samsung has removed the necessary call recording libraries in ICS. Hope that is not true.
afaik it will work soon, becuase the ics kernel sources are published today. that will grant many developers to fix everything which cant be fixed before. afaik the call recording problem inlcuded!
Looking forward to this. I loved that on GB. There is a tutorial @ "Original Android Development" category (for GB), maybe someone can start from there to make it work on ICS?
-Aeth.

Before I use CallRecorder but now it does not work ok
me too. that was very useful as it recorded automatically
I can confirm, call recorders does not work on ICS.
I tried almost all available from the market, but no success.
I need it too
Sent from my GT-I9100
This seems to be an useful thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482721 - this actually points to a easy way of getting call recording functionality back!
Here's my understanding from the thread. Basically there are three files in /system/lib that are used for call recording API -
libaudioflinger.so
libaudio.so
libaudiopolicy.so
(It's interesting to note that out of these, only the first is there in ICS.)
If we copy the files from 2.3.6, and replace/add the files, there's a good chance that we will get back call recording. Now to get these files... does anybody have the older version, or know how to extract these files from the ROMs?
SOLVED XD - Need to know if it's reliable
Hi,
I have tried "Auto Call Recorder" (free) and seems to work ok.
Without any patchs or modifications on the rom it works ok recording from mic (depending on you it could be wnought or not).
QUESTION 1:
Someone could tell us if this program is realiable? (I mean, if we can trust in it).
Because it have several permissions that I'm not sure it should have or if it's neccesary.
It has 100.000 - 500.000 installations and 4 star score
How can we be sure if this program is not spying us?
RECORDING WITH API (not mic)
Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551353 I have found a thread where there are two ICS libs (different from the GB ones) that sould fix the problem and should allow to record from API, so we could get clear and loud sound.
Files are audio.primary.exynos4.so & audio_policy.exynos4.so in /system/lib/hw
Files can be downloaded from http://www.mediafire.com/?r2wgv821w1uutzd or from http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=955906&d=1332235902 (both are binary same)
QUESTION 2:
Again reliability.
Someone could tell us if this libs are realiable? (I mean, if we can trust in it).
I have downloaded "ZSLPE" that is supposed to have call recording and this libs are the same that the original in XXLPQ, and are different of the downloable ones that I say before (supposely patched).
If ZSLPE have call recording, why libs are the same that XXLPQ?
Where are this "patched" libs from?
Again the same question, are this "patched" libs reliable?
Perhaps I could be some paranoid, but I don't want a spy on my phone or something worse, and I want to be sure that all my phone conversations (or any other personal data) are not sent to anyone.
Probably is stupid to think that anyone could be interested in my bored conversations, but those are mine...
Greetings
^ Thanks given
For security concern, you may want to try out LBE Privacy Guard... I use it. It can help you to deny certain permissions for any program which you think has no business asking for the permission.
You may question that program more though, as it asks for a lot more permissions in return for the power!
Personally, I would trust the libraries and the auto call recorder - the permissions it asks seem legit. I checked the hack works with Total Recall too, so if you feel more comfortable you could use that.

Could you explain what you mean by this I not sure I understand.
Thanks to everyone who has been responding it looks like we might not be too far away from call recording on ICS. WooHoo!

I installed the two .so files mentioned in this thread into /system/lib/hw -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551353&page=2
After a while this worked for me, for both Total Recall and Auto Call Recorder. I have DXLP7 with CFRoot LP7 kernel.
Alternatively, according to the same thread, in ZSLPE call recording works from start.
Let me know if that helps, or I can answer any other questions to get it working for you.

in phone settings - extend settings, you can set it automatic for incomming and outgoing calls. works like a charm here and records both sides (i'm using resurrection rom 1.0 too)

Hello everyone!
I ask you for help, I just activated root permissions on my Galaxy s2, I followed the directions taken by a post to disable the click of camera, root through explorer by going to system / media / audio / ui, everything ok But the sounds of the focus, to be clear when you see the green or red frame before you shoot that produces two different sounds, I can’t find the items in the folder or elsewhere? because I passed one by one and I can’t find, someone experienced can help me .. I want to silence completely the camera excuse my ignorance on this matter but I'm trying to figure it out! thank you!

Ok, I don't manipulate the separate audio files for the different camera sounds.
I just made the camera sounds operate like the system sounds. So when I turn the phone on mute (no sounds/only vibration), all camera sounds are mute too.
Just add "ro.camera.sound.forced=0" to the end of /system/build.prop
or create a new file /data/local.prop with the content "ro.camera.sound.forced=0".
You can edit or create these files with ES FileExplorer app from Play store.
Then mute the phone and use the camera.
Works fine on my phone.
Or try this if using ics:

Edit1: This issue have workaround found to be raliable-ish, see post 6.
Edit2: I've figured it out, see post 12.
Greetings!
My device is Redmi Note 4X black 3/32GB. I have an issue with the microphone not working, but only during phone calls and only when using the built-in earpiece for communication. Switching to loudspeaker mode or plugging hands-free makes it work again.
This issue is reproducible only on custom AOSP based ROMs, but works as expected on Mi A1 ported ROM and on official and customized MIUI.
It's kinda strange, because some guys here don't encounter such problems with either the RN4(SD) or the RN4X(SD), both code-named "mido".

Oh, nvm! Sorry.
I have same problem and dont find a solution.
I've found some sort of a workaround for this issue. The problem described in the thread is kinda different than mine, but seems to fix my problem too. It's in this XDA thread. All i did was flashing the two zip files from zile995: fix-audio-*-zile995.zip at the bottom of the OP.
As I said, this is a workaround, not a fix. If you know some of the maintainers for the device tree for LOS, feel free to mention them in this thread. I could make a fix proposal miself, but I don't have the time to invest in this. However if no progress is observed in the next couple of week, maybe I'll try to make it work and propose a fix to be pushed to upstream, so no more dirty flashes of patches to be required for the mic to work properly during a phone call.
Ok i will test too.
Edit: I have test and its work but i dont have lte and the other side say the volume is very low.

Tested ot on LOS 14.1 and RR Nougat, in my case LTE works and the other guy says it's too loud. How come?
I have test with latest rr too. I dont know what is the problem. In the other Thread i have see there is a v6. I will test with this. Have you install both fix after install Rom direct?

Yup! It's not necessary, though. Flashing the v2 version is sufficient in my case. build.prop version does nothing. I'll play with it further during the weekend.
Cheers!
I have found a good fix which work for me.
You found it here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3630473
Done, fugured it out
Greetings, ppl!
I know it's been a while, but I've finally figured it out.
The property 'persist.vendor.audio.fluence.voicecall' should be set to 'false' instead of 'true'.
In the Official and all MIUI based ROMs it's set to false, but in all AOSP based ones it's set to true, which breaks in-call audio for alot of people, at least the ones with newer revisions of the board. So next I'll try to fork the device tree from the LOS project and modify it accordingly and build the ROM with it and see if it finally works out of the box.
Oh, such a relief! The mic finally works when calling people.
Could you please try and report? You're not supposed to, though. Flashing roms and testing configs can be annoying sometimes.
Happy holidays!

pardon me, the connection is bad over here
i believe i have edited my post because it was full of typos but it turns out its not edited yet.
please re-read the post you have quoted.
fyi, i clean flashed PixelExperience 8.1 ROM right after i arrived at work
setting this and that, root the phone using latest Magisk, install Root Explorer and did what you have wrote on post #12 and yes, i did not use any patch, just your workaround
Reboot the phone, test calling and i smile very wide.
one thing i found, setting up Google Assistant can't be done
it told me to say "Ok Google" but the app didn't hear me
so i change all of the "almost identical" line to false, like this....
persist.vendor.audio.fluence.voicecall=false
persist.vendor.audio.fluence.voicerec=false
persist.vendor.audio.fluence.speaker=false

Google Assistant recognize my voice now
But the speakerphone mode stay the same, the voice from the other end aren't loud enough.

hi @nasko_spasko
I'm getting a bit irritated by this phone
How come i am (maybe with you too) the only one having this problem
Last night i look at latest xiaomi.eu build prop and i decide to get all audio related lines and overwrite the related lines in pixel experience's rom build.prop
crossing my finger here, wish me luck man
edit:
still i get very small volume for speakerphone mode
anybody knows how to gain the speakerphone output level?
@nasko_spasko
finally i fixed it
mic working fine in call
loud speakerphone
i did what he told me here.....

change fluencetype to none and add one line in audio_platform_info.xml
reboot
