Question Fake Mic access? - Google Pixel 6

Mic access QS is fake, Can anyone explain what is this?

Doesn't look like the native recording app on my Pixel 6, don't even know for sure what phone he's using. So he's inferring that the mike is still working for that app at least when it is marked as blocked in the shortcut. I just trried to duplicate this on my phone using the stock recorder app and the mic was indeed blocked correctl;y. It is also blocked correctly from phone calls. I found that out yesterday when someone called me and they couldn't hear me.
So, what is this? Either he's found a way around the mic access block, or it''s a faked video. Since the display doesn't show any waveforms on the "playback" , I'm calling fake video.

Sorry, without this info I was grasping at straws. I don't use whatsapp. Maybe someone who does can test this for you.

I think it always asks for permission if you install WhatsApp on your new phone and start recording voice in the chat.

I thought your question was about the permission but just now I saw it clearly that you just canceled and it records voice on WhatsApp. Go to phone settings and apps -> WhatsApp -> permission and change mic to not allow! Then restart your device and see if you get the same problem.

The "Mic Access QS" should be blocking the mic permission for the whole device even if the permission is enabled for specific app.

Is from a 3th party App.. I had the same with SnapTube..

Hmm.... Well, I use Google Voice and for that you just press 4 while on a call and it gets saved and transcribed to your Google voicemail.

Harry Potter, you need to go to your contacts and find someone who's online. Longpress their name and hit "Skype video call".
You need to go to your settings in your skype app to enable video calling because by default its disabled

Once you've updated to the latest version of Skype. Open it up and press the menu button on your tab and click settings and navigate to the button to enable video calling.
the Skype version with video is: 2.5.0.108

it does work. However at the start after installing, ut mentioned it doesn't recognise this device, and there is one annoying bug.. Keeps showing Skype signed in at the bottom right corner where it blocks the digital clock.. But it doesn't happen al the time...

Google voice search still not working on Alpha 3

Anyone got same issue with Google voice search under Alpha 3

I have setting up as English(us), whatever I say, the result always is "mmm"
I have try recording voice at Webos, it is OK, but not working at android !
Have you tried voice search on another device? Reason I ask is last year I had issues with voice search returning jibberish when I used it, problem was with the voice data they collected getting screwed up online. If voice search fails on another device that's most likely the cause. You can clear the data in your Google account.
i think i might have misunderstood you. I use the actual google voice app for texting and I can search fine. there is another app call Voice Search which is completely different.
In any case, Voice Search app does not recognize that I say.

Good to hear that I am not alone !
have you try using "Sound Recorder" app from Alpha 3, It is not working for me as well, the sound record got abnormal playback. the sound record only work on WebOS ! Sad.....
Google voice search from the market does not work for me either, but.... the mic button on smart keyboard pro does work. It works pretty good, especially if you talk directly into the top of the touchpad where the mic is. Just thought I'd let you guys know. FWIW the voice recording app ALSO works for me. it sounds a bit muffled, but it does record and playback legibly.

Call recording

Can anyone test call recording. I use call recorder but there are several others that have native (line in and out) recording. If someone could try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder I would appreciate it.
I know this thread is old but I use acr with no issues what so ever...calls are nice and clear...

Weird. I replied to this myself after I got the phone. Call recorder by @SkAlvex works perfectly. It even records while using Wi-Fi calling which my s6 could never do. Thanks for the reply though. I personally like call recorder better mainly because I am used to it and additionally because there is a link to recordings from within each contact.

BoldBeast recorder is another option that has almost always worked with every phone. They have great support and it's free. Root is not required (not attainable anyway, except on the EU version, for now).
I've tested it on the G5 and it works (though I haven't given bluetooth recording a try yet). Wi-fi calling recording does not work though.
Edit: Actually it works with Wi-Fi calling! Sweet!
If anyone is still reading this - don't upgrade to Android 7.
I did upgrade my LG-H860 (dual sim G5) and then of course discovered that call recording APIs are either removed or hidden - no software works!
Now looking for a way to downgrade back to Android 6.0.X....

Try ACR. It is working on my H850 (no root). If you can't make that app work with default settings, just choose mode "Android 7 all (a)"

I don't know why, but ACR does not work on my LG-H860 - the other side is very quiet. I'm using Boldbeast Call Recorder now. it's manual recording (unless u buy the license), but it works perfect on my phone even with this android 7.0. Thank God!

Anybody can help me identify this issue.
Whenever I am trying to use my recorder, either audio or video. The box will come out saying (if I am trying to record a video) "camera is currently recording audio. com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox:interactor will not be able to record right now"
What is annoying, once the box comes out it will stop my recording.
Please shed some light anyone.
I am using a Huawei P9+
Thanks
Ok google interrupt with other audio services
Hey,
I had the same problem on the same device.
Only thing that helps me out was disabling the google recognition on every screen in the google settings. Hope that helps you either but its remarkable because i used it a long time very active and now i get this box every time.. really annoying hope there is another solution.

How can you do that,to disable google recognition on every screen?thx

I had the same issue with my Honor 8 and it would pop-up each time I was trying to record something w/ the video camera (that it ended up messing up some shots).
Long story short, I tried the following suggestion on YouTube:
but this tip didn't work for me... not sure if it's b/c I upgraded my Honor to Android 7.0 (I'm basing this off of my screen choices looking different than the video).
But then I tried the suggestion on this video:
,
and it finally seems to be working... NO MORE POP-UPs! Woo-hoo!
Hope this helps!
Video fixed pop up message but other issue occurred.

So your video got rid of the annoying pop up message, but I found out that this disabled the mic when using the voice commands "OK Google". I had to enable the Google Mic services again in order to use the Google Voice commands again, which caused the pop up message to show up again.

Can you try removing the Google search app and reinstalling? That may work in getting the mic service to work again while keeping the pop-up suppressed.
