Bug: Notification during video recording causes persistent audio noise - Nokia Lumia 900

Make sure Vibrate is on
Record a video
Send phone a email from another device (while still recording)
Phone will vibrate twice. Keep recording for 10 more seconds (padding)
Playback video
You will hear the phone vibrate, then the audio will be messed up from there on out.
I can reproduce this almost every time.
This is on my second Lumia 900, that had a purple tint, but a quieter vibrate than my previous phone.
Here is a link that shows the issue: http://youtu.be/h0maLtnUvoU
Can anyone else reproduce this?
Originally posted on Nokia forums, but it is mixed with various lumia users. So I am posting here tot, for the 900 users.

So... how do you get the phone to vibrate when you get an email?

how to get it to vibrate? It just does when it receives a email/notification, if you have vibrate on.

Audio Bugs After a Call

Hi All,
I have my Galaxy Nexus about a week now, so far I am quite happy with it. It's my 1st Android. It's a GSM one.
I have noticed an odd issue, and am wondering if others could test and see if they are getting it, on either GSM or 4G.
On to the issue.
It can happen in two different ways with the same outcome.
The first way it happens:
I receive a phone call. I answer the call as normal. I immediately hear the other party on the call for a split second, then a split second later I hear my ringtone through the earpiece for a split second. Then the call will carry on as normal.
Once the call has been finished, I will then notice a delay in certain sounds. E.g. I will try dial another number on the Dialpad, and the tones will be delayed by several seconds or just don't play. And when I hit buttons on the screen, e.g. recent apps, The usual click is delayed by a couple of seconds and is followed by a second click.
If I open the Music app or the YouTube app and play music/video, both audio and video play fine, but when I hit pause on either it will pause then play for a split second again, then pause and stay paused.
Sometimes if I receive another call afterwards; my ringtone will, instead of playing from the start, play from where it was when I answered my last call.
The second way it happens is if I call someone. When I press the hang up button, I will hear a tone in the earpiece, followed by the same tone through the speaker. I will then have all the weird audio bugs as above.
Restarting the phone resolves the post call issues, of course until I receive another call.
As I said, I am wondering if anybody else is experiencing this? It is a little bit odd, to say the least.
So I had a brain wave.
I went through all my apps and did a force stop on every one that was a downloaded non stock app.
I tried the steps above to reproduce the issue and I couldn't.
So It seems that an app I have installed is causing the issue.
Now to find out which one.
I will report back when I do.
And the culprit is Air PlayIt.
I will continue testing other apps just in case.

[Q] How does Vibration Works in yours?

My Lumia 900 black vibrartion works like this..
During Incoming Call:
When in Vibra+Ring Mode:
Vibrates only for first ring and then stops. Only Ringing occurs afterwards.
When in Vibrate Mode:
Vibrates normally like any other phone.
Is my device working properly in Vibra+Ring mode. I hope it should Ring and Vibra till the incoming call stops. Correct me if I am wrong.. Is my device defective?
Thanks.
Can someone please answer this question by taking some time by testing your device and compare it with mine?
Thanks..
Are you saying your phone vibrates when in Ring mode?
I'm pretty sure my Vibra+Ring mode is the same as yours; it will vibrate on the first ring but then only ring from then on.

Mine works the same way... which now explains why i miss a bunch of calls when Im walking in the street in NYC and dont feel my phone vibrate in my pocket.
Doh!
This is kind of weird implementation. Hope this gets updated to vibe/ring at the same time throughout the entire incoming call.

Ok, yeah that makes sense. And yes, my phone works the same way.
I just tested my phone as well and it only does the initial vib then stops as the phone continues to ring. I don't like that. I like for my phone to vibrate and ring at the same for the duration of the call. Interesting find. I'll probably end up missing calls as well because of this.

Same here, vibrates on the first ring only. I didn't even notice that until I saw this post. This could possibly be an issue for me in the future but right now it's not really a big deal as I didn't even realize it. The only time I really do need vibrate is when my phone is on silent.
Yeah..this is an important issue as we might miss calls during traveling. Single vibe would not suffice.
Traditionally all NOKIA devices vibrates and rings at the same time. This device is working weird which can be fixed by a software update.
We should inform Nokia about this issue in their conversations by pointing to this thread.
I just tested mine. It will vibrate first and then ring, but once the ringtone has cycled, it will vibrate again and then ring, and so on.
Choose a short ringtone and set vibration to on. Then try making a call to the device. Allow the ringtone to cycle at least twice. I know this isn't the equivalent to vibe with ring, but at least I do get more than one vibration with my ringer.
Here's a observation...
I'm noticing that this phone actually NEVER vibrates and plays a sound at the same time. Such as new SMS or new email... the phone will vibrate first and then ding, same as an incoming call (vibe then ring).
So I'm wondering if there is possibly some sort of limitation (hardware or software) that doesn't allow the Lumia 900 to vibe & play sound simultaneously.
Thoughts?
I believe that WP7 is configured to vibrate at the beginning of every cycle of the ringtone.
Because of this, if you have a long ringtone such as a song, it will only have the chance to vibrate once before your voicemail kicks in.
To test this theory i changed my ringtone to "Topic" which was included with the phone.
As expected, it vibrates, runs the two rings that make up the ringtone file, then vibrates again as it repeats. This means that shorter ringtones will result in more frequent vibrations.
Can someone else test this to confirm?

You are right...works the same way..
Vibration in any lumia
I been having issues with the vibration as well. I have a Lumia 710 and have tried on a 800. The short ringing tone works fine to keep it vibrating.
But I´ve heard you can actually have the phone ringiing and vibrating at the same time.
there is a post in here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11948890#post11948890
but it only workls with HTC. i have been looking for a program or a registry editor that can change the vibration function on a LUMIA.

Microphone problem with video recording

If I record a video in quiet environment there's so much background noise in the playback that I have to turn the volume down...is this normal? I've tried with 2-3 apps and it's always the same. I can't understand why with calls and audio-only recording there's no problem. I bought the nexus a few days ago on amazon so I'm still able to send in back
no1 has ths problem?

Call automatically switches to loudspeaker

Greetings, Devs,
I am experiencing an interesting behaviour with my G7 Thnq. When I call someone and the other side is busy, I get the "busy" signal, which automatically switches to loudspeaker and beeps there. Have you experienced such behaviour and how can I solve it? It is very annoying, when you call in a quite place and beeps switch to loudspeaker, everyone is unhappy, myself including. If needed, I can record this behaviour and present a video.
Thanks,
Arukardo

Question NO sound or vibration notifications during calls.

Such a thing. During a regular phone call, the phone does not let me know about notifications. More specifically notifications are coming, but there is NO slight vibration, some short sound beep etc. This has a big impact on my work.
I will not take the phone away from my ear every 10 seconds to see on the screen if a new notification has come from, for example, WhatsApp or another app. This is absurd. Any fix?
Same problem here. Any solution?
