Would love for someone to be able to implement this fix either into an app or a kernel possibly. I can't stand not being able to record live music or really even anything with loud ambient noise/bass/variable sounds. The Video is pristine, the audio makes it completely unusable for anything.
I'd be willing to start a bounty for this.
I have the some problem, recording audio is useless right now!
Anyone? I need this also
if anyone knows of a way to do this, it would be awesome!

I was reading the s2 forum on this found a app called Hi-q that has a mic gain control, however its just a audio recording app. Wish there was a camcorder app that has the same function.
bump
has anything come up in the past months to improve this ? I just went to a gig yesterday and came back home with great video with farting sound
saw something about GNex Toolkit having some mods for sound but I think it only runs on Windows ? (it's an .exe file). However if it's a mod I guess the specific mod can be extracted and installed on the phone using adb or whatever..
bump again...this must be annoying a lot more people
bump, still need this
Me too.
Would be nice...
Glad to find this one - Sad that there is not really a simple solution yet... bump
i just cover the mic with my finger while recording in loud environments it works for me xD
Hello,
I knew, this topic is more then one time discussed, but I can't find the answer.
At my defy there are three sounds for the camera:
1. the start sound(some kind of beeping nervously)
2. the focus sound
3. the shutter sound
I run my defy with cm7 white rabbit 1.6.
I'm able to disable the shutter sound.
also I've deactivatet the focus sound, it's still there. (settings>cyanogenmod>sounds>disable focus sound)
for the start sound there is no point to disable.
I also searched the system for these sound, but Ididn't find them.
It would be verry amazing, if my camera makes no noise.
I hate this sounds especially the start sound.

Install CatLog App from the Google Play store, run it. press home button to let it run in background.
open camera app, click an photo, close camera app,
open Catlog App save the log file and post the contents here ..may be some dev will shed light on it.

is there anyone there have found a way to disable the shutter sound on the g4 ?
have tried to rename the system files but no luck the sounds might be imbedded in the camera apk ?

Renaming is enough. You have to kill the camera one to have an effect.

You say you've renamed the system files and that wasn't working and your solution is the same as what's not working?
Silent files seems to be a solution. But why? There has to be a sound file, somewhere hidden. When I delete the startup ogg, the sound is gone. So why not with the cam ogg's!?
I hate to bring back old threads but it's better than creating another one for the same exact question:
I just got another G4, h811 and rooted, trying to disable the camera shutter, i've renamed all files at first and nothing was working, the shutter still persists, then i went and delted all the camera files in the 'system>media>audio>ui folder, and rebooted the phone, and checked back inside the folder, the files are gone, but the camera shutter still persists! All the camera sounds are still on, the autofocus, the click, and the shutter sound. What gives??
Hey guys,
anyone else experienced bad video sound quality? I found out, that the phone saves videos with 96kbps sound, wich is an explanation why the sound is that bad. But can we do anything against it?

I too am experiencing this issue. Not sure if a fix currently exists. On another note, when I purchased this phone i was hoping for more development support! It may still be early, but not too impressed so far!!
I also just got bitten by this crappy audio when recording videos. It absolutely sucks! Will using a different camera app fix it?

I dont think so as I am already using cam mod.
There must be some audio postprocessing going on. When I record audio with an app (Easy voice recoreder) and choose microphone "Main (unprocessed)" the sound is good. If I choose just microphone "Main" the recording is very bad (the same distorted sound I get in video recordings). So the phone can record good audio. The question is how to record unprocessed sound in video.
The bitrate is 96kbps with no way to change.
I have logged a bug here:

Get the camera app called Lgcamera. In this app you can manually set your audio settings.
Set it to AAC and set the stereo option to On (this did it for me atleast).

soo.... to answer to myself it does not work, the audio quality is still 96kbps, I had an idea to record audio separately.
if you start recording only audio with an app like "easy audio recorder" and then you go to the video app and record. the recording audio app won't stop recording its quality is gonna change to 96kbps (bad)
EDIT: yeah, it sucks, only xiaomi can fix it.
I have found a trick to record good audio see my post below.

Hi, I am running ressurection remix 8.1 on my whyred ai, cant seem to work out how to get any bass on my video recordings, on my mido I had to flash some changes to audio mixer files etc. Not sure if anyone else is having this problem but the audio reoding sounds really tinny.
anyone else notice this?
just realised the inbuilt audio recorder is ok, only video apps like google camera and opencamera seem to have the issue?

Ok found a way to get really good audio quality. I've searched across boards and tried a lot of stuff. The volume level might be low(er) but I need to alter another XML file. Good enough for concerts and out in the open I would say.
First you need to change the max bitrate since they set that to 96KHz which is way to low. The file to edit is /vendor/etc/media_profiles_vendor.xml
Almost all the way down that file you see the AAC settings.
You will see
<AudioEncoderCap name="aac" enabled="true"
minBitRate="8000" maxBitRate="288000"
minSampleRate="8000" maxSampleRate="48000"
minChannels="1" maxChannels="6" />
As you see I set it to 288000.
Next is the biggest issue. Seems the MIUI camera standard uses AGC and that high pass filter that up to date I haven't found. Open camera works but the other microphone you can select they go via the noise cancelling stuff which kills the audio and you get an underwater sound.
I have a official licensed cinema FV-5 from the playstore. Now there is an issue for the moment. I cannot record in 1080P (the image zooms in like crazy it seems, I contacted the developer for that). On 4K recording it works perfectly. Also remember in the menu to tab the little shaky hand to switch on the stabilizer as that works miracles.
Now go to the settings - audio - audio source is set to 'built-in mic(video camera)' ------ audio channels - stereo (2) ----- bitrate - 256000 ----- sampling rate - 48000 and very important 'disable audio automatic gain control - is switched on' meaning disabled.
Give it a go.
@junglist @lukesan Hi,
I downloaded Mi Max 3 ROM which is the same SOC and I found some interesting stuff about that!
mediaprofiles.xml in vendor is the same on both devices (at least on 9.5.19.0 which am using right now) but the one in system is different, on Mi Max 3 they changed the aac bitRate in so many lines from 156000 to 192000 which is looks interesting!
Also there’s a trick here, mediaprofiles.xml which is in system is the same media_profiles_vendor.xml which is vendor, same on our device, that means both files must be overriding not only mediaprofiles.xml in system!
here’s a flashable zip from Mi Max 3 ROM for any one wants to give a try, also check out this video which compares between our device and Mi Max 3 regarding this part:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LKThf9KWjs (09:42)
I still need to perform more testing before I can confirm if this really works or not!

Ok, very cool find! Observations which I made over the last couple of days
We have 2 'issues' on the redmi note 5 (Whyred) so 1) the bitrate and 2) the highpass
1) is as you say media_profiles_vendor.xml we can easily alter that one. Check out the downloadable MI MIX 2 audio quality ... module for Magisk. Download extract and copy that xml file and set the same permissions 644 I believe. Make a backup of the original first. They set the bitrate really high on that one 256kbit/s I believe which is a bit overkill, but compared to 20mbit/s for the video it is nothing and I rather have overkill than 96kbit/s underwater sound.
So that one is easily fixable.
2) The high pass filter seems to be linked to the AGC. I really like the AGC since it keeps the volume constant and should be the standard for the 'normal' people who do not care about extreme hifi things. I would leave it on if I could only switch off the high pass filter. Shoot a video and it will be perfect for 99.999% of the people. Levels will almost be perfect. People easily understandable etc etc etc.
I would like to switch off the AGC (and the filter) for real audio recordings, meaning classical music etc etc .. this involves always having to check if your level is not to low or if the peaks are not to high causing clipping which means distortion.
For issue 2 the only app that I found that can do this is cinema-fv5. I made an error in my previous text to set it to 8MP since then the stabilization doesn't seem to work properly so I now set that to 2592x1296 which seems pretty 16/9 like to me. If you switch off the AGC in this app then you get AGC off and high pass off. Very low level audio but perfect quality. I guess perfect for a concert. (this weekend there is a local festival here so I can really test (and enjoy))
If you want good audio but mono then you need open camera for now. If you set the microphone to 'mono' you will also hear that the sound is good, setting it to stereo gets the noise cancellation working and it sounds like crap.
I'll try those Mi Max 3 things if I find a bit of time. Lets share knowledge and experience and we'll get it working like it should. This is the only small downside of the redmi note 5 that I have found so far. (and that is coming from an S7)
---------- Post added at 10:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 AM ----------
@rocker00 Just flashed it. Does set the bitrate to 288kbit/s which is really high but, like said above compared to video that is peanuts. Better a lot more than what it was. But it does not switch off the AGC or high pass. Since you have the rom can you check and attach another file? The file is in the same path (vendor/ etc) our file on the redmi note 5 is called mixer_paths_skus.xml . I guess it might be a bit different on MI MAX but I guess some more audio is being controlled there.
@lukesan First please override media_profiles_vendor.xml manually because it looks like the script is not mounting vendor!
Regarding the file, media_profiles_V1_0.xml, mixer_paths_i2s.xml, mixer_paths_mtp.xml, mixer_paths_skus.xml, mixer_paths_skush.xml, mixer_paths_wcd9326.xml, mixer_paths_wcd9335.xml and mixer_paths_wcd9340.xml
are the same md5! but mixer_paths.xml (which i downloaded the whole rom just to get it in order to try to enable dual speaker) is completely different!
Also i have 2 doubts:
1- in build.prop which is in vendor they changed ro.vendor.audio.sdk.fluencetype to fluence which is none in our device(related to noise cancelling)
2-ACDB (Audio Calibration Database) which is completely different in Mi Max 3 cuz it has dual speaker and two speakers at the bottom, and ACDB is controlled by audio.primary.sdm660.so which is different for sure in both, i hope it's not related to that because it will be really a hard job!
here's the mixer_paths.xml am still looking into it maybe i can find something!

Probably it is taking the media_profiles_vendor.xml which I already edited manually. Well to check that our device is capable you could check with Cinema-FV5 lite which is free up to 1280x720 resolution. Disable the AGC and you get a nice clear sound full audio spectrum. I'm on a 8.7.5 rom and when I start to record my image is taken from the upper left corner all zoomed in. Not sure which rom you are on, but could you give that a try?
If it's that *.so file we need to address someone with the right knowledge. I've never decompiled stuff like that.

Just came back from the festival that I told about. The default MIUI video cam.. wow made a complete mess. The AGC went completely crazy and no bass. Using cinema-FV5 ... wow listening to it right now with my earplugs..... it's like I'm still there. Ok the bass sounds (only) a bit distorted, but I was standing at the front and the smart people there handed out headphones that dampened sound to the kids. I myself suffer from tinnitus so I have -20dB earplugs ... even then it was crazy loud.
So cinema-FV5 is definitely a must with music. Not sure if I can upload something on Youtube without violating copyrights. But surely this phone is capable of recording high quality audio for sure.
Same happened to me. After recording the stage with artists and loud music. It looked OK, stabilised video at 1080p, but sound lacks bass with stock camera app.
I would like to try better camera apps like gcam, just there are ~50 hours for me to wait till I can unlock my bootloader and flash a decent ROM.
Then we could record at 60fps 1080p and [email protected] with normal audio.

Forget gcam or other roms for now since they use the same audio path. There is another trick I read about but it involves a lot of work and I would hardly call it a working thing unless you spend a lot of time. Check this thread. I know for the MI MIX but same procedure applies for now. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix-2/how-to/mi-mix-2-video-sound-recording-quality-t3776450
Leave the 60fps and 4K behind if it is in a dark environment. You might end up with dropped frames etc which is really annoying.

Have you tried it? I've tried your trick with the bitrate increase in media_profiles.xml, though I've set it to 192000 and used the FV-5 disable the AGC and it's much better quality! Although the bass is a bit too much pronounced and the meds and highs are a bit sacrificed, it's still much better than stock. But with the custom settings for audio in FV-5 it makes that "underwater" sound, no matter which combination I used, but I did everything according to your post, only if I leave the default values it works. (I now suspect it was maybe because of the stereo recording option)
I am interested to make some changes using the thread you linked, I'm just afraid not to make a mess of volumes in earpiece or introduce echo during a call or something like that, that's why I'm hesitating.
The AGC makes a total mess of recording, it lowers the quality and introduces background noise.
For the 60fps I'm not sure that works as none of the camera app that I've tried are able to record it (I'm on AOSP based rom) because it depends on the camera blobs, and I'm not sure Xiaomi updated the sources, but they did introduce it in MIUI 10 builds.

Strange that you got the underwater sound. Can you check with this one? https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo Just drag and drop the file on it. It will show the audio properties.
Just to confirm again my settings in FV-5 I changed the resolution to 2592x1296 (turn on handshake thing on where you can actually see where you are recording, weird setting I know). In the 'Audio' settings check the attached screenshot.

Oh yes I did that, but you didn't check the "Custom audio settings" box so the app uses default system settings rather than the ones you selected. Try it out if you didn't already.
And I've checked with MediaInfo, the video was recorded in 96K (because the app didn't use custom settings), but anyway it should be using maximum possible values the device has set in media_profiles_vendor.xml, which is in my case 192K. I've seen now that media_profiles_V1_0.xml is basically the same file and there is 96K set as maximum, maybe both files need to be changed?

That's normal since it seems you can't overwrite those settings in our current roms it seems. I bought that FV5 but I emailed support and never gotten answer back, to bad. It always takes the settings from that file on the phone it seems. And yes if you see 96Kb/s than it is normal that you hear these metallic sounds. Can you maybe attach the media_profiles_vendor.xml you have in the /system/vendor/etc dir?

Well recording in 96K instead of 48K which was the case with MIUI 9.5 in GSMArena test is already an improvement, however I'm sure this device is capable of even more. So for now, seems that just disabling AGC made a very good difference, it might just get better if we raise the bitrate even more. I've seen in the thread you linked that they actually modified media_profiles_V1_0.xml in case of LineageOS to raise the bitrate, I will now try that one as well.
Here is my file you requested.

I confirm that changing the media_profiles_v1_0.xml does increase the bitrate! I have set it to 192K, however since the maximum value that was set for each resolution (I've tested 1080p) is 156K the app used that one based on previous setting. Now every app should use the 156K if we don't alter the bitrate for each resolution separately (that's my guess at least).

I tried this app with the steps you mentioned and yeah, sound is better for sure but it's much better if we can get the same result on stock cam.
let's take it step by step, first is the bit rate, even after using Mi Max 3 files the bit rate remains the same! i checked my old Sony Xperia z2 mediaprofiles.xml and i found the aac bitRate is also 192000, see the video sample result in the 1st pic from sony and second one from note 5 pro!
Now clearly there's something controlling the cam audio beside mediaprofiles.xml since the modifications wasn't enough!
I'll record a log while recording and let's see if i can find any info about that!
@Cirra92 60 FPS is working on 9.5, i thought like you about blobs but surprisingly no! now i'm on 9.5.19.0 and i just got the camera apk from MIUI 10 and i have 60 FPS!
Also i found another thing which is interesting but it's still not working even on Mi Max 3.....looks like 120 FPS HFR is on the way!

I managed to get this setting even if it's still grey!
etc\device_features/whyred.xml just added those lines:
<!--whether support camera video high frame-->
<bool name="support_camera_video_high_frame">true</bool>
let's try to make the cam perfect as much as possible!
