Hi,
The microphone settings are way to sensitive for audio/ video recordings. Is it possible to control microphone input settings (limiter)? I've seen that this topic was addressed somewhere before but no solution was given.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

same problem,someone?
I also have this problem, I was wondering if it was in the service menu somewhere as you can boost the mic level for calls or video calling or boost the speaker volume. I didn't try turn down the volume and record on it though. Its *#*#197328640#*#* to access..
I rung Samsung in my country, the guy the other end was a complete tosser. I have been trying to record guitar/drums to post online for utube or whatever.. But understandably the drums clipped the mic hard, as they are so darn loud. But even at a low level for guitar it was raping the mic, clipping hard.
The guy said its a cell phone, not a professional recording device and I am expecting too much. I then replied well an iPhone wont clip and its a cell phone.. My wifes ipod touch didnt clip at the same concert I was at using my xperia x10 a few months back. He ended up trying to tell me that iPhones suck and are locked down, which is true. Then how we can do anything we want to the phones, customising them to suit. But then he told me NOT to go in the service menu and that it would void my warrenty, seriously what a idiot.

Hi,
I'm on Galaxy S2; Android 2.3.3; KE7.
When using headphones on my device the volume is great for music, videos, youtube, and even skype. However for some reason it's only around half of that level when calling (even tough the volume is set to maximum).
I've done some google research and found out that it's quite a common issue with this phone. A workaround has been found by using some codes. However, it is not a permanent solution.
I've found a post which says that someone had called Samsung and they acknowledged the issue and will send them a new phone where this issue has been fixed.
1) Has anyone found a permanent solution to increasing the volume of the call when on headset?
2) I've also found a post where someone says that apparently Samsung will fix this issue in Android 2.3.4. Can you confirm this? When will this be available? If it's longer than 1-2 weeks I will have to send my phone for a refund/exchange (although I love it).
Your advice on the above is much appreciated.
Hi, I've done some further research and I think I've found the solution:
First make sure that your sound is on (as you can't access the volume settings in the silent mode) -> press the Menu button -> Settings -> Sound -> Volume -> and then increase the 'Incoming call' volume.
I've just tested the call volume when on headset and it has been increased to a more that enough level. Great. My love to this phone is growing
Now I have to figure out how to disable the camera shutter sound....but that's a question for another post...
It seems that the solution above worked for some time but now my phone started to deliver very low call volume when on headphones. Maybe it's due to the Android update, I don't know.
However I found that the issue is related to the media volume. For example when I listen to music and turn the volume low then this affects the incoming call volume and it becomes low as well.
The solution to this problem seems to be: make sure that the music volume is max before you want to make a call. I've just tested it an is seems to do the trick.
It would be great to hear to another solutions to this problem for unrooted phones.
Heard this app works well,

Pretty much as the title explains, I'm trying to figure out if there is a way I can record using the camera on the phone, But record my voice through the hands free earphones.
Why?
Because I like to record with my phone mounted on my motorbike, I'd would be better if I could record from the mic as
A) I can talk
B) The mic Can be shielded by my helmet to remove all the wind noises.
I've searched through the forums, So sorry if It's been asked/Answered, I had no luck finding anything with google or here. The best option I got was use "Lg Camera", But I had no luck with external microphone options there unfortunately
Thanks in advance for your help
Hey.
Yesterday i was on this 'We love the 90's' live arrangement where Scooter, Culture Beat, Haddaway, Captain Jack, Dr Bombay and Daze was doing a live arrangement here i live in Ålesund.
Now, the video recording was in good quality for the most part, so i have nothing to say about that.
But what my question is, is if it's possible to lower the input volume of the microphone(s) on the Galaxy S II?
I'm using Android 4.0.3 though. Or i'm using SensatioN ROM v3.4, but it's a Samsung ROM anyways.
When the sound / noise gets a little high, the sound starts to cracks quite alot. And that will ofc make it bad to record a live arrangement.
I know we can change / edit the values to the bitrate on the recorded movies and the audio quality to in the 'media_profiles.xml' file that are under System/etc.
Shouldn't it be possible to reduce the input volume to the microphone to then?
Or isn't it any ways of doing this?
I also hope that i posted this on the right place.
Greetings from Tom-Helge.
EDIT: I was using LgCameraPro to record the movies and was setting it to record in mono because the sound would crack WAAAAY more if i had been recording the sound in Stereo.
EDIT 2: I'm uploading a little clip from the live arrangement to let you see what i'm talking about.
It's done in about 20 minutes.
EDIT 3: Here is the little video clip.
Bump before i'm off to work.
Anyone have any idea about this?
I had the same problem too ^^
same problem here, but it seems a known issue of s2
Still no ideas on this problem?
Think i have to give this topic a little bump again.
Hi folks,
I was hoping someone could help me out with this. I'm unable to hear in my right ear, so i need to wear one earphone. The problem is, obviously, that i miss half the sound of a lot of songs due them being played in stereo. I was wondering if there's a way to force all the music through the headphones to be played in mono?
I've done a bit of searching Google on this, didn't really find very much, although there was vague mention of being able to edit a system file on a rooted device to achieve this. Anyone know if this is true, or of any other way to get mono sound?
Any help would be appreciated!
Friendly bump! :fingers-crossed:

I appreciate the reply I did come across this app, I was hoping there might of been a way to do it whilst using standard headphones, instead of bluetooth. I guess there's no way this can be done at present
I was sleepily switching SIM cards and accidentally poked the sim tool into the noise reduction mic.
I'm sure I felt a little click or pop and I'm obviously worried I've damaged something.
Is there any sure fire way to test its definitely working properly other than just making calls?
I pulled up the diagnostics menu but I can't see anything relevant in there to test, is there anything in there perhaps not immediately obvious that could help me see if it's functioning properly?
Thanks!
Well, now I don't feel so stupid for doing the same thing.
Guess we are three.... any findings??

Well either it's an ongoing problem, or there's three stupid people. I'm gonna go with ongoing problem.
Only findings I have is that the phone's function doesn't seem to be impacted at all.
I've not noticed any issues, calls seem to be fine!
I didn't find anything else concrete, just an article somewhere talking about the diagnostics menu where I left a comment. The author came back to me and had also done something similar (it's a real issue! ) and said his was fine and it "probably" hadn't done any lasting damage
Good to know, thanks!

and here is the 5th stupid. :silly:
Yet another. I just did the same on Galaxy E5. A bit worried although nothing seems broken.
A 6th stupid
I did the same too...
Well, fortunately I'm not one of you, stupid people D ) but maybe I have a tip to test the microphone.
Open the voice recorder and set the interview mode (I have set the Italian language on my phone, so I don't know the exact english name of the app and of the function, sorry): using that you can record the voice of two people (one in front of the other) using the 2 microphones, with a visual feed of what mic is recording the sound (you have the visual feed in the play mode, too).
Test it!
Thank for the advise Glaucos, I ran the voice recorder and luckily both microphones appear to be in good order even though I poked the hole of the noice cancellation mic pretty hard.
Hey guys, I'm with the same problem haha, someone poked my mic and I don't know how to check it.
My galaxy A3 2016 has the Samsung Recorder, but I'm unable to change to the interview mode. Any thoughts of another recorder I can download?
Thanks in advance!
Working solution for testing mic (works for both the mics )
Dial *#0283#
This will take you to mic test menu, offering 4 options i.e. rcv_1st mic
Rcv_2nd mic
Earphone
Stop.
Generally second mic is the mic on the top(noise cancellation mic)
Choose the option and speak into it. It will be reapting your sound. If it does then its working else you have damaged it.
Choosing the option channels the mic and speaker into something like mic to speaker system where you speak into mic and hear the same thing out of the speaker at the same time.
I have tested this on my galaxy note 5

Thanks! Worked on my A50 with android 10. Droped the phone to the water and I was unsure if the second mic was working ok.
