I use DJRun when i run which is supposed to change the song you're listening to based on the accelerometer reading to try and match the beat of the song with your running pace but when I tried on this phone it comes up that the display has to be on for the accelerometer to be read. Is there any way to fix this or something I'm just going to have to deal with?
I use bluetooth streaming in my car and whenever I change track or pause/resume music, my phone screen wakes. This is really annoying as it is a waste of battery (my main power sucker) - the whole point is that I don't have to touch/look at my phone while driving. I cannot understand why this would be done and surely people who use bluetooth headphones know what I mean.
Anyone have any idea on a fix, I cannot find a useful reply anywhere!
In case anyone cares, I have found a way that is better than nothing using the app 'tasker'. If my phone is connected to my head unit and the screen wakes up without sensing anything on the proximity sensor - the phone immediately re-locks. This means it will only flash on and I don't have to manually lock it again (or wait for my long timeout). If I want to use my phone I just put a finger over the sensor when waking the screen and it allows me to unlock like normal.
BT wakes display
On my Z3 Compact, after phone connects to car bluetooth /BMW professional/ it everytine turn on screen. My previous phone Z1Compact did not. After connected to car, the screen remained off. Is there any fix for this waking screen caused by connection between phone and car BT? Thank You for any answer
Here is a little background on my problem.
I just recently bought a new Nexus 4 (my first android phone). The other day I was on walking on the road listening to some music on my wired earphones. I received a call which I answered by pressing the button on the Mic of the headset. After 3 seconds the call got disconnected and I heard a Google now beep. What had happened was, when I picked up the call, the phone unlocked itself which is normal. But the proximity sensor is disabled when you are connected to a headset (wired or wireless doesn't matter) as a result of which my phone registers random inputs in my pocket (which disconnected the call and opened google now). Is there a way to enable the proximity sensor when connected to a headset?
I cannot believe Google ****ed up this basic thing. I see Samsung phones doing it properly with their ROM.
@moderators This is my first post on XDA so I am really sorry if this post is too long or in the wrong section.
Hello all,
due to a recent security incidence at my house, I have decided to install some cameras. I read online about using old android phones and I think it's a very good idea, so I bought 5 old android phones with led lights and what I would like to do is the following:
The cameras would start recording/taking photos when motion or sound is detected, and send me a notification. As well, if it's dark, I would like the led light to turn on before it records/takes photos otherwise it would be useless.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any app that would have both the motion and sound detection and the recording feature enabling the flash only when it's needed?
Thanks!
Hey everyone,
Ever since I've received this RN3, its mic has been a constant source of frustration. it appears to be off during phone/whatsapp/.. calls (other party can't hear me AT ALL). Now before you think that this is a HW issue, when I record a video with the builtin camera app, it does record sound but at a lower volume than I think it should be. This is what i've tried/noticed so far:
- The exact same thing happens on Global 7.3.2, Global dev 6.5.19 and Chinese 7.3.2.
- Swapped SIM and/or placed SIM in tray 2 (no effect)
- Flashed Santhosh's CM 13 ROM (other party still can't hear me)
- Used builtin sound recording app on MIUI ROMS: I can hear a lot of noise but not what has been recorded
- Used builtin sound recording app in CM 13 ROM: nothing
I've looked on the en.miui forum board and apparently I'm not the only one with this issue. Other ppl are facing the issue that the mic gets shut off after recording video (and a reboot solves it), but this is not the case for me.
Does anyone have any idea? Thx.
Have you fixed that problem?
I have the same issue but a little bit different. I don't own a pair of hans-free so when I answer a call I connect a pair of headphones and talk from the phone's mic. So unless I have the phone 1 cm next to my mouth the other person cannot hear me, which didn't happen with my old phone (the other person could hear me even if the phone was 2 meters away from me). And it is not an issue because when I answer a call in speaker mode it operates correctly.
So I've discovered that the problem lies within the secondary mic next to the jack port which is used for noise cancellation as people state in miui forums. The only solution I've came up with is covering the secondary mic with my finger every time I answer a call. With this solution the secondary mic is "disabled" and the primary mic operates as expected, people can hear me even if the phone is not right next to my mouth. Of course this is not a permanent solution but I haven't found a way to disable the secondary mic through software yet, or calibrate it to not falsely filter every sound as noise and canceling it.
hallo guys,
i have the same problem on my redmi note 3 (mtk) for months, its really annoying.
when im having a call, my mic suddenly switches and my call partner can only hear me very very silent.
also i had some situations, that my call partner can not hear me at all. herefore a reboot worked fine...
as mentioned above, the problem are the 2 different mics on the redmi note3.
one is at the bottom which should be used for calls (lets call this MIC1), the other one is on the top next to the head jack plug (MIC2)
sometimes the MIC1 switches and so the call partner only can hear you via the top MIC2 - thats why your voice is very very silent then.
on the other hand when you record a video, the voice is switched to the top MIC2 and might stay there also after the video as standard - thats why no one can hear you in calls then, or only hears you very very silent.
solution: close the hole for the upper MIC2 with a tape, then it won't switch during calls!
disadvantage:
- you can't put a call on speaker, because system switches to MIC2 which isnt working.
- you can't use google now for music detection, because system switches to MIC2 which isnt working.
- you might have sound issues when recording a video in landscape (i tested it, had no problems and could hear the sound when watching the recorded landscape video)
here is a link about the recording videos in landscape vs portrait:

and here a video with the tape solution:

are there any software solutions to disable the second mic??
How to solve Redmi note 3 mic Problem:
Step 1: Go to Google settings (Not phone setting)
Step 2: Tap on Search & Now
Step 3: Tap on voice . After that tap on “Ok Google” detection
Step 4: off the “Ok Google” detection .
Congratulation. Your Redmi note 3 mic Problem is solved. Its happening because of “Ok Google” service. Now your friends can easily listen to you without any disturbance.
This is a serious problem and just insane that is has not been fixed. I have the Redmi Note 3 Pro and Calls and talking is fine
Now recording anything at High Levels it sounds like a wave effect, both mics are on even if the top is covered same issue.
Its as if there is a threshold somewhere on the noise cancellation that after a certain decibel it tries to correct and auto compress and fails Large.
This must be software as it is leaving both mics on instead of having an option to turn one or the other or BOTH off and or on.
Using an acoustic guitar is pointless, I purchased this phone for the price/performance ratio and thought the audio would not be an issue while recording, it is now useless as it was used to get music ideas down for songs, record band in practice for ideas and live situations it is absolutely impossible and upsetting this simple feature has not been fixed. Back to rotary phones and 4 tracks I suppose.
So far 2 out of 3 Redmi note 3 SD i puchased for my self and friends have this problem of mic not working in calls. On speaker phone it is OK. Tried all the "fixes" I have found on various sites but none have worked. Have not tried one of the fixes as it requires installing TWRP and rootingand the owners are not happy for me to do this for them. Rebooting sometimes fixes one off them briefly but just fails again after 1 call . On the MIUI forum there are countless people with this problem on both chipsets with no fix
i have buy redmi note 3 on a month ago, now i have updated MIUI 8 and i face mic issue(other person can't hear me), done every thing but not able to resolve this issue, pls someone give permanent solution on this.
Interested to know if anyone has a solution for this. I have moved to CM14.1 to try and fix it but am still having this issue.
using the phone with closed MIC2 hole like described above
This solution works for me for Nougat:
Use a root explorer like ES Explorer to edit /system/build.prop
Find the line :
ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=fluence
Change to:
ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=none
Solution
NO ROOT REQUIRED. Simple Solution.
With me it worked using the soundabout app, just set up "phone call audio" by selecting wired headset (with mic) option.
Once done you can uninstall the app if you want. Cheers!
Hello all, so, the solution for the recording sound problem is the use of soundabout? in my redmi 3s I applied the fix.zip and it is solved, but in the RN3? just using this app?
Thanks!
