Bad Audio Quality on Video Recording - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

hello guys. i have some issue with video recording audio. its really bad. its like low bitrate quality 3gp/amr audio.
just a hunch, i think this has to do with fluence (some sort of noise cancelation technology by qualcomm)
yes im using custom rom (specificlaly im using NOS 19 06 2017) BUT... hear me out first..
in the old build of other rom such as RR and NOS, the audio is really great and very close quality to stock miui rom. crisp an clear audio.
then lately (since mid may) all those roms build somehow adapt to something caused the audio on video recording to drop significantly.
yes, you may tell me to use the old build. but the old build is not really as buttery smooth as today, not to mention lots of bug been fixed in latest build, great battery life too, and miui is not really an option.
i believe for those who use custom roms like i do,having this issue as well. ive tried AEX, RR, PureNexus. all have this issue.
i hope someone out there who familiar with this issue know whats going on with this roms audio implementation. perhaps, could work out some solution.
example of the audio can be viewed in the youtube video link below. all using stock camera.

i have yet to found a fix. had no choice other than using old build. ??*

Have you receive or still nothing? Thank you. I'm confusing when i record audio is terrible.

Have u NOS build march? Give me some links.

If you would like to get the best camera and video quality, then surely for the MIUI cuz that will only give you the best audio quality with any recording. Alternatively you can try the Google Camera HDR+, although it crashes quite often! That too is good.

Any solution? I'm facing this issue too.

This issue is like Nexus 5, except there isn't any solution around until now.
Magisk modules and other zips do not work. Flashing new firmware prior to flashing NOS did not do justice either. Disabling Google Now should not be the solution, for if that isn't the problem in NOS March build, then it has to be something else.
I tried to discuss about this in few groups outside XDA and surprisingly it did not come to their attention.
Bottom line is, if there's anyone who can fix this, I'd even give a fee.
The link below may give pointers on how to go about fixing the issue, but it is not for RN3
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xi...ix-fixing-bad-sound-video-recording-t3523171/
I just dislike the idea of going back to a build so old just for better mic quality. However if there are any AOSP ROMs whose mic quality is still good, you can let us know as well

I've tried, it doesn't work.

Developers can come to the Q&A section and answer a few random questions they know the answer to, but they don't. Then we end up with lazy amateur users like me, who don't answer the questions or don't know the answer....

Unfortunately my sensor is not working, maybe it's a device problem
Camera is laggy, and this is a EmfoxZhou build i believe from About section of the ROM
I couldn't test for other bugs, as I have limited time
YAS537 is impossible since no one fixed it yet.
I guess, unless Xiaomi releases the kernel, we won't be able to experience it completely, but do you think it will happen :/

hi guys. I realise that nougat 7.1.1 (NMF26F) sound quite low. I tried searching and found this two mod. can someone tell what are difference and is it working with nougat?. thank you
It saved the update for me. sound is not good for me on stock 7.1.1. Comes at the price of disabled selinux to make it work though. Google dev is aware of issue, lets see how much they care.

Current State of LineageOS 14.1

Hey guys. Does anybody know what bugs/missing functionality we currently have with the LineageOS 14.1 nightlies? https://download.lineageos.org/h830
I'm not a huge fan of LG's stock ROM, but I would like full functionality of my phone if I switch to a custom ROM. Thanks!

You can never get full functionality of LG Stock ROM on any custom ROMs.
Even though I have not flashed LOS, I can tell you few things that may not work.
1. Wide Camera
2. IR Blaster
3. Most Probably any friends modules if you own them.
I'm interested in knowing too before I try it. As long it's stable with all cameras working, I'd be fine.

Given the choice of being spoon-fed crap on Reddit and using the search here or simply checking the last few pages ... I'd go for XDA, but that's of course up to you.

Well, I've been on los for a while now..
-As far as I know NFC is not working (on not using it so no idea, but it seems to drain the battery an not work properly)
-BT works for eg headphones but not for headsets
Charging is still an issue. It is faster now but still not even close to fast charging. An on a 3rd party charter or is ridiculously slow
-the wide angle camera is working but you have to toggle between the cameras to get to it. The auto focus might be a problem, but it is mostly solved I think.
-playing music is sometimes a drag, and can be laggy
-FM radio is non existing, not supported, will probably never be...
Other issues have been solved, other pop up, but since there are weekly updates, that's what it is.
-be careful, root has to be installed separately and if you don't do so, immediately after installing the ROM, you will most likely end up in the famous Twrp bootloop..
Before installing it I'd read at least the last 20 pages in the forum, these should give you an idea... Or go to the fulmics ROM. It is stock based so everything should be working. To my knowledge all the LOS based ROMs share the same issues.

Oh what is this - LineageOS 15?

Working:
RIL
Audio
Display
Bluetooth
Wifi
Sensors
Camera
Fingerprint
Broken:
VoLTE?
I will release when I want to.

In my opinion nougat and oreo are the most unexciting Google OS I know. It's nice to have, but half of the first year after release devs on XDA and even Google itself trying to bring back the performance or/and battery life the OS version before had.
Not to mention the problems with Magisk etc.

I suppose you're right. Neither Nougat or Oreo have brought significant changes, they have both been 'minor' updates with subtle changes to improve certain aspects of the OS. The last major update to Android was Lollipop, when the entire appearance was drastically overhauled from previous versions. I'm only excited because we just have to take what we're given, and any update to update the appearance and usability of Android after an entire year is a refreshing change! Even though Nougat was only a small update, it feels unbearable to me when switching back to Marshmallow without the new quick settings swipe-down; the one before the entire notification area appears. So even the small features can make a lot of difference to the overall experience! I'm still really looking forward to seeing the changes made in Oreo for myself when it comes to the Axon 7.

I don't get why people say this, honestly. Just because you didn't get a visual overhaul like you got from KitKat to Lollipop doesn't mean there weren't significant changes. Visually the OS is already at a level where there's no need for a major change (it has been "ready" since Lollipop, imo; Marshmallow, Nougat, and Oreo have all had small visual tweaks but have stuck to the Material language), and most of the tweaks work "under the hood." Oreo will bring Project Treble, which may just be the most significant change in Android in the last few years. It also brings improvements on the behavior of notifications and background services or apps. It's an incremental update, yes. But it's by no means a small update.
@Gases
We talked about excitement.
I mentioned the problems with the new OS updates, which brings maybe more security but also many problems to custom ROMs. Furthermore there are more problems in the first months. I don't need visual tweaks.
Project treble is mainly positive for stock ROMs. We will see, in which way custom ROMs can profit of this new feature.
Background battery eating apps are no problem on custom ROMs based on LOS, if you use the internal features or external apps. But again. It's nice to have already implemented.
Finally I am always thankful for all kind of ROMs and kernels devs provide to the community. And I was always someone who donated to say 'thank you'

I am not the dev but this is probably more a promotion thread. Final builds will surely be on developement thread.
Some devs are working on oreo right now.
Let's wait and be thankful for their work.
Here is a small update about the situation. Since the most common stuff is working im going to release this rom in 1-3 days. But don't expect to much. This rom is still WIP.
Working now:
RIL(Calls, Sms)
Audio
Most of the stuff (NFC etc.)
Broken:
Camera
Fingerprint
VoLTE (Will be probably broken until we get new blobs)

I was just looking over in the Nexus 6 forms and to overcome the camera issue for them they had to upgrade from 7.1.2 - 8.0 and then restart the phone. So there is hope especially since the Nexus 6 is a 32-bit phone and I'm pretty sure 8.0 was supposed to be 64-bit.

Suggest me best ROM that fits me.

Hi,
I'd like to ask for help. At the moment, im using Pixel Exprience. It fits me well, but also got some problems, like apps crashing, also got some problems with microphone (my girlfriend gets mad everytime, when I call her and she can't hear me every few seconds) etc.
I am not sure, if better choice will be some good, stable ROM based on Nougat, or I should try other from Oreo?
The device I am using is x820 6/64.
And if it's important, I like to change themes with substratum, maybe it cause app crashes? No idea for other app like that. There was some warning on the app, that "rooted substratum" might cause problems, but I am not so advanced with apps to know any other replacement for this app.
Love black themes with one colored (blue or red etc.) details.
I was thinking about:
Nougat: Silm7, Ressurection Remix
Oreo: Ressurection Remix, PixelRevenge (but its still beta).
Maybe there is some other awesome, stable ROMs, that will fit me?
Waiting for your answears, and thank you for them
I have tried about 10 different custom ROMs on this phone and haven't still found the perfect one, but close to the perfect is AOSIP for me It's superfast, no lags, almost no glitches (Camera app used to crash but I fixed it by installing Open Camera). SOT is also great. I only had some random issues with call sound quality (microphone - outgoing), but now for some days seems I hopefully managed to fix that using India 19s modem firmware (I have X829 phone). So you can try it too. But to be honest all the roms (especially Android 7.1 and Oreo) has issues with call sound quality. Maybe It's some hardware problem with only my phone.

Maybe is Le Max 2 problem, because my mic (outgoing) also have problems. I hold phone all the time the same way, and my girlfriend once hear me, once not, like I am blocking the microphone with my hand.
Is it possible for you, to attach links for those ROMs? I am at work currently, and after I come back to home I wish to start changing ROM.
Yeah I got exactly the same problem. People randomly couldn't hear me, like I am blocking microphone.

It should definitely fit. Just check if you have really flashed it after flashing (in System-About phone tab it should show Baseband version MPSS.TH.2.0.c1.9-00033 ).

Wonderfull, I'll try it in next 5 hours, hope it will fit me well! I'll respond here, after doing it
Yup. It is much smoother, but it not translated 100% in Polish laungange. It's not problem for me tho. Going to test it more.
I am waiting for few more updates and than will try RR Oreo. Have experience with AOISP and AICP, never measured Antutu score nor battery, I charge it often, keeping between 40-90%, but deal breaker with AOISP is that during call i could hardly hear anything ,also , person i would be talking to, coud not hear me well either, it is better on AICP.
sinc eI got phone recently , only use Oreo Roms.
Slim7 very good. Zero problem.

Hey! How are your tests? Do you still have problem with incoming sound on calls with India modem 19s?
I am testing also RR 6 rom. Seems also not bad, only SOT is worse than on AOSIP. Call sound quality might be even better.
Noob question
So, I m noob in this.
I Have and Leeco Max 2(x820) with original ROM.
I want to upgrade my Leeco, but in all threats I have some issues about every rom.
I know that always have some bugs, but, some of them are really uncomfortable like Front camera reboot phone, any others.
I what know, what I win with change a rom, and what are the rom more stable for my case.
Camera, bluetooth, QC are indispensable.
You should try like Official LineageOS CM-14.1 (7.1.2), most of android 7 will be stable, especially the official ones.
