AOSP Based ROM with great audio recording quality ?? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there...
I would like to use some AOSP based ROM on my LG G3 D855, but I've already tested many, and all of them have a poor audio recording quality.
On the video recording, the audio is pretty acceptable, but if you try to record any music playing at a high volume with some bass (on shows / parties), you will get a distorted and clipped audio.
When recording audio through WhatsApp (or any other audio recording app) the situation is even worst, even voice-only recordings have a really bad quality and noise.
With Stock-based ROMs, none of this problem happens, I can record songs with high volume even when using Whatsapp and it doesnt sound creepy.
So, is there any ROM with a audio comparable to the official-based ROMs?
Thanks in advance... Im really seaching for it. :crying:
PS: I pretend to record a song with both stock and aosp roms, and share the audio here so you can compare it by yourself.

Bump
I have the same issue and I was wondering if there's any solution. Microphone quality is absolutely terrible! My daily driver is Ressurection Remix.

I'm having the same problem on XenonHD. I can't understand what the other guy is saying after recording calls.

This issue is related to stock roms having proper drivers (or framework) to record sound. AOSP does not have access to this so it is noisy. This alone is the only reason I'm still on stock based rom. I really want to use AOSP, but cannot without proper call recording.

[Q] bad audio on video recordings

I attend a lot of concerts and whenever I record video the picture is quite decent but the sound quality is awful. It seems like the recorded sound level is too high (too much gain), so the sound is very much distorted.
It is not related with the rom, I'm using RSK team Special Edition ROM and I had the same issue on stock Froyo.
Is there any way to fix this or can someone recommend an app to get better sound in videos?
thanks

Sound Distortion using Bluetooth Headphones (QC 35)

Sound is heavily distorted when using my Bose QC 35. It doesn't appear when I use a wired headphone (and earphone). It's a software issue because downloaded media, and Soundcloud audio distorts; while playing YouTube videos don't.
It's incredibly unbearable when there's anything remotely bass to the music...
and I listen to music with lots of bass, so..
I'm using a Resurrection Remix ROM (5.8.3)
I don't use RR, and don't know if it's a known bug. Mostly just some shots in the dark here: Are there any sound mods, and if so, does disabling them make any difference?
Do the apps that cause distortion have their own EQ or other sound options, and if so does disabling them make any difference?

Nope, as far as I can tell, RR does not come with any sound mods installed.

I have tried using multiple music playing apps, with and without EQs. RR also came with an EQ app; with or without EQ, sound is still distorted.
Anyways, I do believe ResurrectionRemix is causing the sound distortion. Probably a bug on their end (as i've noticed many, already). Hoping to get a better experience once I flash a stock Android O rom (what with AptX codec and all that)...
No more custom ROMs for me. Thanks for the reply nonetheless!
UPDATE: Funnily enough, the EQ are the ones that sort of bandaged-fixed the sound problem! It seems like the 60Hz range are the ones primarily causing distortions (the bass). Lowering that made the distortions virtually impossible to hear... at the cause of losing bass, which kinda sucks. But for now, this'll do. Hopefully flashing a stock ROM next time will truly fix this.

Overdrive sound in recorded video on concert.

When I record a normal video, the sound is beautiful.
Yesterday I recorded video on concert, the sound recorded with overdrive. example:

My wife also recorded together with me concert on Meizu MX6 - the sound is excellent.
I assume that the Automatic Microphone Gain Control does not work correctly.
How to solve this problem with sound overdrive on video on the OP 3T?
This problem has been frustrating me a lot as well.

A little understood the problem. Overdrive of sound appears on ROMs based LineageOS & AOSP in ROMs based OxygenOS sound great!

Audio recording AOSP/OOS

I wanted to know if there is a fix for the audio recording on the custom roms for the dumpling which arent oos based. The audio recording on most of the aosp roms ive used is poor than oos and idky. The audio records well in low sound environment but distorts a lot in loud environment.
Apps i used in aosp roms and got the sound distortion- whatsapp, snapchat, instagram , gcam.
In oos roms , the audio recording is perfect without any distortions in the same environment.
Can someone guide me through this as this is the only reason i am not able to use the amazing aosp roms for the dumpling.

About sound recording on custom ROM's

On Pie and Oreo custom ROM's audio recording quality is very low by default (96 kbps ), and, which is also important - mono (pseudostereo - technically, in video 2 audio channels).
On Oreo ROM's i can install Camcoder audio quality fix (by rocker00) and will fix it all (patch by nhappyman doesn't fix the sound).
On Pie ROM's - patch by rocker00 breaks the recording from the microphone (patch by nhappyman still doesnt' fix the sound).
It possible to make good sound recordind in video on Pie ROM's?

I know and I don't understand why so little people notice this. Just tried another Pie rom again and I liked it till I noticed audio recording is still in mono and actually only uses the bottom microphone. If people think that 1 camera gives a better picture than another 1000's of people will start to notice and comment on this and multiple threads will be started. This issue ... silence.
For me personally a video recording the audio is part of the deal and if it sounds crap or mono then it is a no go. The mic's on our device are more than capable of good quality audio. I wish I had the time to check the XML files etc again. The fix with Rocker00 took weeks to get it working like we wanted to. I am getting really tired of flashing my phone and not being able to make calls or be available. Sometimes I wish I had a second similar phone where I could just change files, reboot and test over and over again.
emm...bump?
