Hi,
is there alternative to the original fm radio app? The stock isnt so good. I tried the Spirit from F-droid and the sound quality is poor.
Thanks in advance!
The audio quality on this phone is poor to begin with. Lol.

I have installed the CM7 rom on my lg p500 however the issue I find is that the FM radio is unberably quiet.
How can I fix this?
Are you using bluetooth? I think It's a known bug that the sound is crappy via BT.
There is a possibillity to search automatically for radio stations ?
Can SGS2 do FM radio recording? Do we need an app for that too?
I've been searching for an app which records FM-Radio for two years now (for my HD2) without success. Now I've got an SGS2 with the same request.
Please give me a tool which can record FM-Radio :-(

Yes, an app for FM Recording will be very useful. Is they any app like this available in the market?
Have you tried Tune in radio pro?

No.
I'm porting my FM app to Galaxy S and it should work on S2 also.
Reading through the service manual for the S I see it says "FM Radio with RDS / real time recording". But there's no such function I can see in the stock FM app.
To record digitally, you need FM audio in digital format. Most phones use a simpler, more battery friendly analog method.
AFAICT the Si4709 FM chip output appears to be analog only. Perhaps some ADCs could be used to digitise.
No call recording either Sigh! And they call these smartphones
Hello,
I flashed CM7.1 on my SGS2, then Seyah kernel and could not be happier with the results. Thank you to both teams behind these.
I am trying to listen to FM Radio but all I get is a message "enabling bluetooth", the BT is being enabled but then nothing - no sound whatsoever.
Two questions:
1) Can I disable the bluetooth activation each time I want to listen to radio?
2) Is there a fix or another radio app which is known to work for FM radio on SGS2?
Thank you for your help!
FM radio does not work, sorry. I use TuneIn.

Got it. I have a limited data plan, so TuneIn is no good for me.
Thanks for helping!
I was wondering if anyone has found a way to improve the audio that is recorded when video recording. It seems like if I am recording live music, or anything too loud (but not incredibly loud) the audio is just really bad and tinny.
Just wondering if there was an app or a mod to fix this and maybe change the recording gain.
Thanks!
PS - I am already rooted and running on SHOStock
Thats just how the quality of the microphone is... The microphone the video recorder uses is the front facing microphone which is next to the headphone jack I believe.

This works for the i777, I have tried it and audio does improve.
Also what you can do is replace the camera.apk from your current rom with a camera.apk from a different rom that has an improved audio quality. Ex: the camera.apk in UnNamed rom has an improved video recording audio quality. So take that camera.apk and replace it with the camera.apk in your current rom. That should do the trick
Shostock already ups the quality to 128kbps and with AAC, anything higher isn't that useful unlike MP3.
And the fix gtg465x tried to implement doesn't work. I tried it.

Alright, thanks for the info!
It's a fundamental limitation of anything with a built-in mic. Especially a phone.
Even my Canon HD camcorder had a crappy mic - couldn't come close to what an external mic or a standalone recorder (like the Zoom H2) could do.
Hey all! Just bought the 7.1 from B&H for $349 to replace my Moto g5 plus which is full of issues. One thing I will miss is being able to install V4A (Viper equalizer). I can tune the settings and make my Bluetooth to car connection sound a hell of a lot better than actually changing the settings on the head unit. Was wondering if there was a stock (or built in) EQ for the Nokia 7.1 that I can use to tune Spotify, YouTube, etc. or if I'll have to download a crappy EQ app off of the play store. Is there a built in EQ, or even better, a way to install V4A on this phone without TWRP? Thanks!

There is a way to change the Bluetooth codec in the dev menue, not the same as an EQ but wouldn't you want the signal to transfer as true as possible and use your speaker source EQ?

Yeah I got the phone, saw the stuff in the devs. To answer everyone's question, there is a built in EQ, but you have to open Spotify to use it (not sure if GPM or Pandora work). It's not terrible, but certainly not as good as V4A. And to respond to your question, I don't think the signal transfer is really touched with an EQ. The EQ adds bass and lets me adjust my mids to the way I like them. Like I said, my head unit is garbage. The EQ practically does nothing to improve bass or mids. At first I thought it was the speakers but it isn't. Thats why I wanted a built in EQ on my phone, until I get a new head unit at least.
