hi all,
first of all, i am not a native speaker. and i am a newbie to smart phone. so please bear with my english or any stupid things i might said.
i am considering buying a LG G2. from what i learned, this phone seems to be a very good choice of it's price range. but i saw some sample videos of night or low light situation. the quality is just bad. and the sound is scary.
after some google research, i found a Jishnu Sur mod to improve the photo and video quality. since i can't post question in the dev section, i just have to post my questions here.
can anyone show me exactly how big is the improvement? any video sample for the lasted mod? especially at night or low light environment. the original LG camera seems to handle day time or bright situation well already.
and how about the sound quality? i saw the mod log said it also improved the watery sound problem. can anyone show me some sample?
can the moded G2 equal to the nexus5?
(i try to put a youtube link here. but the system stops me. so please search " Google Nexus 5 Night Sample Video" in youtube instead. sorry. i use N5 as a example just because they have very similar spec)
and if the Jishnu Sur mod can't. is there any other mod to improve the sound recording quality and the night video?
right now this is the biggest concern before my purchase.
oh, and as i said i am not a native speaker. i will need my phone to display non-english UI, fonts, app, etc. (in chinese for more specific)
if i flash the the mod or any other kind of mods from here, to a international version of G2. can i still have other languages in UI or interface?
thank you all for reading my question. and sorry again for my english.

Hello to everyone - this is my first post on this phorum.
I am wondering if anyone tried to do something with the phone to make it possible to record in 60fps. Maybe there is some application, thanks to which we can do such a thing. If not, maybe some experienced user could tell me what should i edit to gain such a possibility.
(Sorry for my poor language skills)
i am also looging for a slow mo app would be quite good
If it is possibe for droid X, it should also be possible for x10. I WAS SEARCHING the market, and havnt found anything. Some droid x users have been editing some system files. It would be a great feature for our phones. On some websites I found information, that some android users were able to reach 120 fps video recording (surely on lower resolution).
wouldnt mind an android video editing app aswell ... even my n95 had build in editor for the mp4 video which wasnt too bad, iphone has imovie, wee need android editing app
Video editing is absolutely different plot. With postprocesing whe can not achieve slow motion effect. Also, i think that it is a waste of time to edit video on phone, eventually for mms purpouse.
It is a shame, that almost noone is interested in this topic. Maybe my question is so stupid, and everyone has already managed to achieve slowmotion in x10
Hi everyone,
I've had my Vibrant with me at a local music festival this weekend, and thought it would be a fantastic time to exercise the HD video capture. Unfortunately, every single video I've taken has had such terrible audio that it's unwatchable. I kept digging around in camera settings but found that there's no way to adjust the mic sensitivity. Anyone else have a similar experience or any idea of a workaround?
In my experience the Vibrant's got excellent mic sensitivity and the sound quality is even quite good. Unfortunately, this means that things like concerts are going to be distorted. I've actually seen very few video cameras that can properly record a live concert, much less ANY cell phone.
I absolutely understand that recording a live concert through a microphone designed around voice for telephony is not going to be in any way, shape or form, ideal. I feel like the Vibrant could do better. I just wonder if it's something that could be corrected for in software, if it's a hardware limitation, or if it's just my particular unit. My dad was also with me at the festival, and recorded the same shows using my old Blackberry 9700. The Blackberry did a markedly better job.. It's not what I would call good by any means, but the video isn't intolerable to watch for memory's sake. I just find it frustrating since the phone takes such incredible video. I agree that it does very well in low volume situations, and I absolutely love the phone overall.
I have a couple of comparison example videos on Youtube from the festival but due to my new user status I can't post a link to them. PM me if you're interested.
I also took my phone to a trance festival, the image is amazing but the sound is rubbish. I was also standing very close to the speakers so I don't really blame the mic since it's not really built to handle such a strong volume input.
If there is a possible way to fix it software wise that would be great, but I'm no that optimistic about the chance it's fixable that way.
I agree, the sound just pops... Same song recorded by the og droid was MUCH BETTER... of course my video LOOKED amazing.
I agree my wife and I recently went to the Honda Civic Tour. I used my Vibrant while a friend used one of those little flip HD cameras. We both got the same picture quality however, her sound was amazing. The thing I find funny is those cameras only cost like $249.
Sent from my Samsung Vibrant using the XDA app.
TGA_Gunnman talks about the same thing here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734515
Though doesn't say exactly which one of the settings is what adjusts the mic gain.
I too would be very greatful to know how to turn the thing down.

I know the device isn't out just yet, but I was wondering if anyone has seen a sample of Nexus 4 camcorder yet? (Front & Back). I rely heavily on my cameras for work & for other reasons & not to bash the G-Nex, but the camera sensor on this device is a little underwhelming to say the least. I heard the camera hardware was based off of the AT&T 8mp Optimus G, but I'm not sure if that's an actual spitting image of what we can expect from the N4.
Any links or input would be greatly appreciated in advanced. Worst case scenario, 10 days isn't too far away!
Here you have some video samples:
Hope is what are you looking for :good:

Thanks sooo much for the quick reply with content. The actually image quality is quite an improvement, but my problem lies with the FPS & the audio to a certain extent. I wasn't expecting perfection, so I'm overall happy with what we have here. I'm sure it'll get better between camera mods & software updates. Thanks again.
The mic makes the video so crap, I tried to record video with my GS2 once upon a time and it was far worse than my old iPhone 4 which had such amazing audio quality. I mean I went to Reading last year and the iPhone 4 was super clear, picked up good bass and sounded great but the GS2 just sounded like I was rubbing a plastic bag over the mic and the bass just killed the mic all together.
So if the audio sucks then there is no point to it shooting video tbh. I just have a separate camera though so it doesn't bother me too much though.
I would love it if someone uploaded the original video file from the phone. Youtube seems to always use an aggressive compression on user uploads, I rarely see good 1080p videos on the site, even from pro cameras.
Make sure to go fullscreen when watching the video and turn your youtube video to 720p HD.
Can anyone help ....
I get HEAVY compression artifacts on the video recordings at 1080p on the nexus 4 itself - even when I upload to the PC. The sound and video is compressed sounding too.
Hi all, x722 here, I dont know if this happens to the other models aswell.
I think most of us know that we have a terrible audio recording quality, and with a very agressive noise cancelling going on, which completely spoils the audio quality in general. When you record something loud, the volume turns down a lot and the general audio quality for the more distant sounds is just terrible. It is just crazy the difference between video (image) and audio quality, and how much can a bad audio spoil any video no matter how good the image looks.
Is there any known solution to fix or improve this?? I'm not sure but i think its got something to do with "persist audio fluence" values, which are somewhere in the system files regarding audio.
It is driving me nuts completely. If anyone can bring some light into the matter, I would appreciate it....! :good:

Great question. The recording quality is the only problem I have with this leeco phone and this is the only reason that I do not buy it again for my wife. Recording quality is very imortant for us.
How can we fix it? Is there the same problem to all roms? I tried only the original bangood rom 20s.
Please answer if you tried other roms!
Also please inform me if the same problem exists to other leeco models as le max 2 X820 and leeco 2 x526.
Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Realme 6 Pro come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Audio quality in recorded videos is disgusting.
Apparently the processing of sound that comes through mic in Realme 6 Pro is optimized for phone calls only. Aggressive noise cancellation damages audio-tracks of all videos you're trying to make (except perhaps if you're filming crowdy scenes, bazaars etc.: where everyone is screaming like barbarian..). Birds singing on background, for example, will be deleted automatically by system. Calm voices of normal, cultured persons will be excluded. Even if you speak close to mic, your own speech will be chopped. Never came upon such ugly sound recording algorithm in my entire life. Not Pro sound at all. This problem alone is enough reason to NOT buy this Realme 6 pro. (Wish I knew it prior to purchase).
If anyone knows how to disable noise cancellation in Realme 6 Pro, kindly share.
There is similar problem (at least) in Redmi 5, and there is a solution for it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-5/how-to/guide-how-to-disable-agc-noise-t3856304/amp/
Wish we had a working receipt for our handset too.
very low sound in recorded video. Video specially bokeh mode so laggy, hardly usable. Realme should have fixed it via update.

Hello! Is there a solution to noise canceling sound in a video camera on our device on the xda-developers forum? {Mod edit} If not difficult, share information.

The simplest solition I found is to use Open Camera app for normal sound during video-recording. Unlike stock software, Open Camera allows to customize sound recording during taking video. This is good solution, cause no need to root phone.

Magisk modules aren't found anymore on that page. Try my suggestion, it is safer cause no need to install Magisk.

Bokeh video isn't a simple thing to pull off at the first place. It's really good thing to have since camera lens isn't supporting the feature at all. I think its okay enough.
