Hey,
Yesterday I received my Galaxy 2. Now I'm involved in some testing and I noticed that while recording a movie no sound is recorded. The voice recorders etc does also not work. I have read that the microphone for using handsfree is also used for recording a movie and it just works (I have test handsfree). Does anyone know if there's a setting or something, that the mic. is muted?

Hi guys,
can anybody help me find a way to reduce the audio input gain?
I was trying to use my SGS II to record some live concerts and rehearsals of my band and all I got was HORRIBLE distortion.
I tried to google my problem but no success yet.
Please help!
Up!
I didn't mentioned that I am talking about the audio quality of video recording and I am running on the original ROM that came with the phone.
Nothing? Anybody?
As of now I don't know of any software solution to lower the mic gain when recording video.
However, I've heard that using the headset that came with your phone (earbuds with mic attached) while recording video should use the mic on the headset, which will result in better audio (albeit in mono instead of in stereo, but that's a small sacrifice) in the video recording. I've not tried it personally, but you could try that out.

It doesn't have to be the headset that came with the phone, I think any headset which you can use the mic in calls should work.
My Zagg Smartbuds worked fine with this method.
Hi guys, did you notice the audio in the video recording of our Galaxy S3 having louder volume at the left side if you use a headset?
And also I can hear a small cracking sound at the right side during the video playback (Of the recorded video).
I tried the voice recording and there's no cracking sound at all. Is this an issue in the video recorder of our device?
TIA :laugh:
Using an app called tape recorder I recorded some audio using the s2 and the s3. The results showed the quality of the mics were the same. The ****ty audio quality is only produced when recording video. this proves the hardware is ok. Just needs sorting in the app itself.
Just hope samsung have it on their list of things to fix.
When recording a song yesterday, my song ideas came out choppy.I was recording strictly wav audio and It almost sounded like there was a noise gate on the phone. After a while of digging through options, I found an option in Call settings> Additional Settings > noise reduction. When this option is selected, the phone turns on a noise gate that makes audio recordings sound terrible; However, when this option is turned off, Audio recordings sound great!! Unfortunately, this doesn't affect the audio quality when recording video, because most wav audio programs only use one microphone. So, I'm wondering....Seeing as how this phone records camcorder audio in stereo( one mic at the top and one at the bottom ), is it possible that these microphones are out of phase and thats why there is no bass in video recording? I'm assuming that the polarity on the top microphone is reversed to eliminate background noise during calls. Also, maybe there is a camcorder program where you can select which microphone to use. When I connected my Galaxy headphones( with the included Mic) the audio was redirected from the the two microphone to the headset microphone. Im thinking of making a TRRS to TRS adapter, which will connect only the microphone and see if that resolves the issue. I understand that I could just add an equalizer to the audio from video in iMovie, but I really enjoy experimenting with this problem. Furthermore, has anybody tried making an XLR to TRRS cable? I used one on my Samsung Vibrant years ago and it sounded great! any suggestions would be great!!! (To get to call settings, you have to click on the phone app, then left button to access)
i can't seem to record audio through the camcorder microphone using any audio recording apps (i've tried easy voice recorder, recforge and field recorder) though the sound is fine through that microphone when i record video using the camera.
when i use an audio recording app, the sound through that microphone is just garbled, glitchy mess. i get the same results whether i record in stereo or mono, and in both stock rom and custom roms.
i used to use my old i5800 as a sampler all the time using easy voice recorder, and never had problems.
when calling if i use with speaker for hands-free use my voice listen with cuts like bad signal,i have 2 phones with the same problem.
Voice recording with distortions.
video recording work fine.
