Weak audio during sound recording - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
After couple friends told me they dont hear me well when i send audio notes in whatsapp i tried recording audio via another app, seems like results are the same. Comparing my friends audio message (send using galaxy nexus) to my note 4, his message is much clearer and louder. I have the F version, Stock rom and no root. Anyone else noticed this?

Microphone problems

Just wondering does anyone experience the problem of recording a video on the Omnia 7, yet no sound is recorded during playback?
I've noticed this heaps of times where apps which require the mic (Shazam, bing voice search, and as mentioned recording a video) does not pic up any sound. The only way to remedy this problem is by dialling a contact and ending it right away before it alerts them. This kind of activates the mic of the phone. Anyone experiencing this?
No, sound is good with my Omnia. Video recording, apps that require the mic...no problem at all.
Thanks. Weird how mine sometimes dont work. Was recording a video, and when I played it back it had no sound... It seems fine now though, but I reckon it will come back eventually ><

Video calling, sound trouble

So I recently got one of these tablets for my parents. It seems great overall.
Tried the video calling with the GTalk app.
First test call between the Tab and my Galaxy S (Custom ROM with latest GTalk so the phone does video calls, although it uses the wrong camera)
The sound my phone receives from the Tab is pretty bad, like this weird stuttering sound. I can still hear voice though. The Tab seems to play back sound it receives fine though, but maybe too quiet.
Second test, between Tab and PC. Annoying stuttering sound is gone. But now my voice comes back to me, and it's much louder than the voice of the person calling me from the Tab. It's like the Tab is picking up sound from its own speakers and sending it back to me.
I tested the mic with the recording app, on both my phone and tab. There it worked fine on both.
What's going on here? Software problem or what?
And why is that weird stuttering noise played back on my phone but not the PC?
Nobody? Am I alone then, is my Tab faulty?

You are not alone as far as the pc side goes. I get the same results. I will start looking for a noise/echo cancellation fix for the tab. If I find anything I will report back.

External Microphone for Video Recording

I have a Galaxy S4 I9505 - I am trying to use my external microphone for video recording but it doesn't seem to pick it up. If I use the audio recording app, this will pick up the mic with no issue.
I have looked through the forum and i seen someone suggested to use lgcamera from playstore and this works but the sound wasn't perfect as there was some noises.
I used this mic on a Galaxy S3 while recording a video and it works fine.
Has there been any changes in the Camera app? can you recommend anything?
Thank you in advance.

[Q] No audio in video recordings - related to Galaxy Gear 2

Hello,
Did someone can help me with this strange issue. Sometimes (randomly) when I record video with my Note 4 - there is no sound recorded.
I made some test and I'm 99% sure that this is related with Gear 2 which I'm using with Note 4 - and its connected via bluetooth.
Also I use my car which always connect to my phone in mic mode (I can call and answer from phone without touching it).
So when I noticed audio did not record, I record another one - of course no sound too - disconnected gear 2 (turn off bluetooth), record another video and this time sound was there!
How can I force video recorder to always use note 4 mic and not gear 2 or car (I dont know if this is an issue for sure) .. I guess thats why I cannot record video with audio from time to time.
It happend to me 2 times already and it was some important movies with my small kid ... :/
Its so frustrating - I give a shot to Android and Note 4 , came from Iphone 6 (which wait for me in shelf in case of emernecy) and all was perfect until this video audio problems. Its both samsung products and for me it looks like even they cannot sort it out properly.
I'm on stock lollipop 5.0.1, no root, no custom launchers. Hope guys you can help me find answer to this I really wanted stay on Android.

Camera sound recording problem after b203

Hi everyone, after updating to b203 I have a problem with sound on video recording on my phone. When recording on live events, I get really bad audio on the videos, crackling and almost unrecogizeable. Similar bug was on Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (one of reasons i got rid of it). Did anyone else experience this?
