Having recently upgraded my ROM to android10 with L17.1 I was surprised to see direct audio recording of internal sound has become an issue. I'm aware from reading around that google removed the function in a8 and there are some workarounds, but they all seem to involve screen recorders.
I'm looking for a simple audio recorder to capture the internal sound without mic.
My nexus 7 flo is rooted with the magisk, twrp and unofficial lineage builds but I don't have xposed framework installed (I'm toying with adding it).
Secondly, I'm still on the factory kernal. Is there much benefit in flashing one of the newer XDA built versions? Can anyone recommend which one for L17.1?
As ever - many thanks.

Hi Guys,
I am getting sick and tired from my samsung based rom on my Note 2.
Every samsung based rom I use is becoming unacceptably slow and sluggish after some weeks of use and I would like to give another try to a CM or AOSP based rom.
Now the last time I tried that - I was having two main issues which made me to go back to samsung:
1. Video camera Mic gain - the Mic gain when shooting video was very high and that messed up every video I took, especially when filmeing in a loud environment.
2. Call recording - couldn't find a decent call recorder - on samsung I just need to enable it using Xposed and it works flawlessly.
Are those known issues when using custom roms on Note 2 devices?
Can you tell me if there's a solution for those so I can finally use my phone properly?
Thanks in advance!
I'm on audax rom with elementalX kernel.
I've realised my videos recorded with stock camera are missing sound.
While any other 3rd party camera app doesn't seem to face this issue.
I have a lot of mods on, has anybody faced similar issues or can relate to this or any mods that may hinder the camera mic.
Or suggest me system files and luvs I should replace to bring back what's lost.
Thanks in advance

The audio boost module in magisk is the culprit, remove it and reboot
So far I have not seen any Nougat ROMs including the library meant for aptX support. I tried to manually place the library (libbt-aptx-x86-4.x.x.so, like the one from ARISE), but it doesn't work as my aptX-capable headset is still choosing SBC, implying the actual support of such is more than just a library. As SBC introduces a ~500ms latency, for my use cases (including but not limited to videos and rhythm games) it's completely unacceptable.
On the other hand, is aptX working with stock MM based ROMs? Apparently the device is in the official supported devices list, so I assume that might be the case. But anyway, is it possible to include aptX on recent Nougat ROMs?
Installing ARISE appears to be a no-go for this device as while it includes aptX-related libraries, it doesn't magically enable aptX and instead breaks all sensors.
EDIT: It seems most ROMs still use Bluedroid, and for that it seems the x86 aptX libs alone won't be enough. I did confirm that my headset (EP725) does support aptX on my Pixel C (currently running Oreo, though the aptX Magisk module for Oreo is required for it to actually work).
EDIT 2: A late update... apparently, the latency is not that much different with aptX, and it turned out to be more a problem with Unity than with the bluetooth codec itself after searching for a bit further... so I was wrong about aptX anyway...
Bump on this thread.
I found the libs here which seems to have been taken from stock MM ROM. But obviously just replacing libbluetooth_jni.so from TWRP with that one would only lead to crashes as there's probably some additional work needed (maybe recompile the Bluetooth apk)...
Unfortunately most of that thread is about how to get it working on ARM based smartphones and/or on Oreo (which our phone doesn't have yet, and most likely the Magisk modules and such are as well ARM-only). The post I referenced is the only one that's at least helpful to some extent, after some basic searching.
EDIT: If all isn't going to work then I have no choice but to look for ways to downsample system audio output to 8-11kHz (or maybe 8-bit) to mitigate the latency... since the usage involved is already lossy with low bitrate, I don't think downsampling would cause any unacceptable loss of quality anyway.
EDIT 2: The libs alone definitely aren't enough. Tried replacing the libs in both /system/lib/ and /system/app/Bluetooth/lib/x86/ and it still crashed when opening.
Hey,
I'm currently looking for a smartphone with long battery life and support of HQ sound (LDAC preferred).
I found some ROMs with Android 8.0 and I heard that this version of OS supports LDAC. Does it mean that when I install one of these ROMs, I will be able to use LDAC?

LDAC is included in AOSP since Oreo so you should be able to use it on every 8+ ROM until someone will remove it from his ROM. It is visible in my codec selection menu on LOS15.1 but I can't test it for you since I'm not in possession of any wireless headphones. I believe that you should look for information and how it works on other phones threads too, not only here. There is possibility that Lineage doesn't support this codec itself since stock haven't supported it but I'm not sure about that since LDAC is part of AOSP unlike AptX for example where your phone needs to be certified to allow developers to include this codec in official builds.
Basically you can add any existing bluetooth audio codec to your phone's ROM. There's not any hardware requirements besides bluetooth so I believe that you should be able to use it.
Hey there,
I'm trying to not waste your time here. I got the XA2 cheap from a friend. Unfortunately it's Vodafone branded and I would also love to get rid of the pre-installed, uninstallable AVG crap.
Before I try to flash either Lineage or AOSP to it, can you guys tell me of the AptX HD part as well as the Equalizer will work with them. And will I be able to install and use Spotify with them? Or do I have to stick with Stock?
I really don't care if the camera or other functions won't work as good as before. For me, besides the telephone part, the sound and equalizer part is the only thing that matters..
Thanks in advance.
