Shou is a screen recording app that can record internal audio. Best screen recording app IMO.

Video camera (auto)focus not available

Hey again XDA,
I know the nexus 4 is capable of focusing the camcorder for macro and other shots. However, for some reason, on cm 10.1.2 and .33 radio I don't get this option. Does anyone have any success on other radios/bootloaders or has dealt with this issue? Thanks very much.

You mean't Camera, Camcorder records video.
This could be either an issue with the camera application or it is missing from the application.

I meant video. S3 has a feature to actively focus on whatever is happening (automatic focus).

Well the Nexus 4 doesn't have such thing but you can attempt to get the S3 Camera but it may cause issues (gallery is joined to camera).

Oh OK. Does it have regular focus on the camcorder then? For me its just infinite focus, not controllable at all.

Unfortunately the user really has no control unless you record when the device is in the best focus.

This can't be right..

Use lgcamera app. The camcorder recording gives you touch to focus control. I read someone say it reduces the quality but i didnt notice any frame drop or reduction in quality.

EQ

Does the N4 have an eq that I can use while listening to music via Bluetooth in my car? I want to adjust some settings when listening to podcasts or live music apps.

Stock should include musicfx. Other than that, there are plenty in the Play Store.

What do you mean "when I click on it"? MusicFX sucks for BT streaming anyways. I highly recommend ViPER4Android. I used to require speaker boost apps and have all my volume settings for my phone and car stereo on max just to be able to hear the streaming music. Now, with V4A I don't need any extra booster apps and my BT streaming sounds just as clear and loud as a CD.

You can try Noozxoide EIZO-rewire.

You are supposed to use the A8 drivers for the Nexus 4 if you go by the instructions in the V4A thread. However I got better sound with the A9/A15 drivers. I also installed V4A on an sgh-I747m and the A8 drivers worked best on that device.

[Request] recommendation for a good call recorder

Hello,
As the title says, I need a recommendation for a good call recorder app. I need an app that automatically saves my 10 last calls (or so) with the ability to save the important once permanently.
And another thing: it is important to me that it will record through 2-way kernel and not through the mic due to poor sound quality. From my understanding it is a kernel feature, and honestly, I have no idea if mine supports it or which other one does.
I run PA 3.99.1-RC1 with its official PA kernel.
Thanks a bunch in advance!

What do you mean by "no need"? The quality is way better that way
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I mean i'm pretty sure with alsa or somehow it records through audio line even tho microphone is selected. Just try it and decided for yourself.

Tried it.
Well I do hear pretty good although the sound level of me speaking is way louder than the other person on the line..
What causes the PhoneLine not to work?

I think you need kernel hack to do it and no one did it here.

Unfortunately the Nexus 4 doesn't have a very good camera, so there's not much you can do about it.
You can try this

low nexus 4 sound

hello
my nexus 4 's sound output is very low.
i'm using franco kernel, 4.4.2 miui rom.
You can try installing viper4android and increasing the gain, works fine for me on stock 4.4.4.

what i should use :
High Quality Mode: Available for processors with NEON.
or
Super Audio Quality: Available for processors with NEON
how to know that my processor has NEON?
Use the super quality, Nexus 4 SoC is capable of running NEON instructions.

Did you enable it for all the different sound outputs and then for the output you felt was too low increase the master gain? It won't do anything unless you enable it and set it up. You also need to go to sound and change the equalizer from system default to viper4android.
