I tried recording some video and found the audio quality quite bad....The highs are not clear and the lows are muffled...
Is this due to it may be recording in 22 kHz or something and if this is so...where to change it ? A setting file or does it need the camera app to be modified. ?

Recording in hd/high resolution is okay, but the 720p playback is superlaggy. Does anybody know how to fix this?

what? you can record in HD resolution? 720p? mine's only working with camcorder preset set to High.
720p playback not tested yet, if you want maybe you can share a little sample-movie to some file hoster (multiupload.com) maybe then more people are likly to test. by the way what bitrate for video and sound you had in your 720p file? codec and file extension?
When I record audio in WhatsApp, the sound is very compressed and noisy.
Recording using the phone's default Voice Recording app records fine and sounds great. This only happens inside WhatsApp. When my friend records something on his iphone to send over WhatsApp, it sounds great... crystal clear.
I can record using the Voice Recorder app, and then share it via WhatsApp, but the person receiving it cannot play it.
Could someone else download WhatsApp and try recording an attachment?
The compression/distortion is much more noticeable when recording something other than a voice, like a guitar.
edit: I emailed their support and they said they have no such issue
Well your still a step ahead of me, I can't get Whatsapp to record what so ever, even when I record a video with it it comes out with no audio at all. As far as I know this only happens in Whatsapp, all my other apps can use the mic.
So yes there is an issue with it.

Are you using a custom ROM?
Maybe that affects it for some reason. Like I said their support tested it with a GS2 when I emailed them and they said it recorded and sent fine in normal quality.
I'm using Congnition 1.15
Can someone else please try?

Mines all stock, not even rooted. So I couldn't have crippled it.
Honestly I don't have any use for it so I didn't really try and find what's wrong.
Like you I was testing Whatsapp with an iPhone and the audio I received from it was crystal clear but what ever I send comes out blank with nothing to hear. It's like it can't use the mic.

I feel like their support might not even be able to notice the difference in compression lol.
It makes no sense that it would compress it on my phone but not on theirs

Lol well maybe to them it sounds normal when it's compressed.

Yeah, I even told them to record the same thing in WhatsApp and in Voice Recorder and they claimed it sounded the same
That's why I'm asking you fine gents to test for me
Well I just reinstalled whatsapp and surprisingly enough the audio works now and I can confirm that whatsapp seems to compress the file cuz the quality isn't as good as the stock voice recorder, but it's not that bad imo.

if you're just recording your voice its not that bad. But anything else sounds awful
I tried recording my guitar and it sounded abysmal
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Yea probably. Well I guess the best thing to do is just use some other service in the mean time. Doesn't look like they'll fix it anytime soon.
Cheers bud.

I realized that it sounds just as compressed if I use a 3rd party voice recording app
I wonder why the stock recorder app has perfect quality audio while 3rd party apps sound like crap
is it like an API/driver thing?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Hmm it might be an Api or driver but I think they're all compressing it to decrease file size and thus traffic on their servers. Cuz for instance if you send a photo it doesn't send it with the full resolution but lowers it to maintain file size. So i'm guessing they do the same to audio files.
Sent from my GT-I9100
Nah it happens with any App that isn't the stock Voice Recorder app
I guess it's special
I flashed MIUI and nothing records with the same quality as Samsung's app

Try lg camera the audio output is acc and sample rate is 48000 and bit rate is 128.
sorry you want voice recorder not video recorder.
Try Tape-a-Talk available in the Play Store. The free version has adds but you don't have time limits while recording, as others apps do.
Try Hertz, it's simple. But it records only to PCM WAV.
PCM Recorder is the best
Hi-Q MP3 Recorder, I was looking for a nice V. Recorder and I think this one is the best.

hello fellow razr hd users..
i've found a simple fix to the hissing sound that comes with a video recording.
just go to settings in the camcorder >> more options ! and just change the audio codec to "AMR-NB" !
viola.. problem solved. :laugh:
please comment if it worked for you..
thanks.
I don't have that option, what rom or version on Android you running?

he probably refers to cm11, 4.4 ROM.
Using the low-fi AMR-NB audio compression that by design reproduces only 200–3400 Hz will indeed eliminate the high frequency noise from recordings. But it's not much of a solution. Applying a low pass EQ during playback of the AAC recording would provide you with much better results...

Hi, thanks!. It worked instantaneously after weeks of frustration ,

Hi guys, is there any way to enable noise cancellation/ noise gate, for whatsapp audios? When i send an audio it sounds really bad, this happens on stock and stock based roms, not on cm11 or cm 12. Now im using cloudy 2.1 and the whatsapp voice notes are bad ( do not confuse with audio recording app). If i record somethinh with the app it sounds good. I also notices that with Bruce kernel it records a little bit better, but not enough for what this cellphone is capable. So, can i enable noise cancellation for whatsapp?
