Have anyone did that? I want to move the front or back camera in the pinehole of the audio jack of a smartphone. I know i have to extend the camera connector, i dont know what is the easiest way to do that. And if there is anyone who is dissasembling a lot of smartphones and by any chances is trying to move one of the phones camera without extending the connector. Thank you !
I've never done this, but i don't think the physical size of the camera module would fit.

hi everyone any idea can i use xdaII without the camera thanks
hhmmm not sure what you mean
if the camera broke and you ask if you can still use the pda without
it turning as hot as the sun and shooting laser beams at people as they pass by then yes you can!
if you mean if you can disable the camera then you can
1 remove the shortcut from programs and asign the button to something else
2 you can use an icepick and hammer it into the lense or something
3 you can cook your own rom leaving out the camera software
oh i see, but what if i wanna remove the camera lens or the whole camera fitting out of my PDA?
i realised that the speaker has no sound if i remove the camera slot. Because the wires seemed to loop through the speaker and i need my speaker to sound after removing my camera ..
appreciate any comment or opinion.
helpppppp!!!!!!

I got some moisture in my A500 while putting a screen cover on it and the unit was misbehaving. I have that cleared up now (hopefully), but noticed something about the microphone. It was partially covered by a tag from one of the wiring looms! I don't know if moving this tag out of the way will improve the microphone, but it sure as heck aint going to hurt it! Since the microphone points away from you as you hold the tablet, I'm not sure it's ever going to pick up your voice properly.

update: I put my a500 back together, but forgot I had the sd card still in there. The end result was that I cracked the sd card which renders it useless. I'll have to buy another one now. The microphone recording volume is still quite low, no improvement there. I think it's a design oversight and any tablet should probably have front and rear facing microphones. Only use the one facing away for video recording, othewise use the one facing the user.
Did you try turning the mic over? Maybe they made two mistakes. Putting the mic in wrong and then covering it with the tag
The A500 has a 2 microphones array, for noise canceling effect.
The microphone you put the tag label away from is the noise canceling one, the main microphone is just at the left of that one and its facing front. As you put away that tag you may have an improvement on the noise canceling effect, if you try to turn over the mic it will not harm the device but I'm pretty sure it will not help noise canceling.
Holding the A500 landscape and dock port down, the gap of the front facing mic is between the screen glass and the upper frame, is just right in the middle, it is hard to see but can be seen from certain angles and light conditions.
Also you provided the proof that I'm not writing nonsenses, in the first picture attached, there are those two alike connectors, both have plugged microphones, and they have the same tag flap with the same codes and digits imprinted. If you look closely you can see the edge of the front facing mic, it's at the left of the back facing mic and it's almost covered by the circuit board where both microphones connectors are.
I as well had taken my tablet apart due tons issue with video cable loose.and noticed exactly where the mice are at. Thinking about going tobeadeo shak or order from black box better mic to out in.I have done this on laptop before

I did a few recordings to test the noise canceling array, and be able to notice the noise canceling effect when recording video with front facing camera, when recording with back facing camera, I notice no noise canceling, the recording level is a little low, but was ok, I'm not sure if this feature is binded to which camera the user is using during record, also I have no professional equipment or applications to make sure that the noise canceling effect/feature was working or not.
I agree that this kind of double microphone array should be a lot more user friendly, letting a user decide to use both microphones, or using only one and which one, or turn on or off noise canceling, or any other feature as the recording level, will not harm anyone. And having the device defaults to record using front facing camera with front mic and noise canceling, and when using back facing camera with back mic, without noise canceling, will work as most users wanted it to work.
The microphone on my third A500 is working great so far. I returned the second one today because the microphone audio was very low. It's still running 3.01 stock because the 3.01 OTA update isn't available yet for my unit.

I moved from an iPad to the N7. When I first got it I accidentally and absent-mindedly pushed the SIM opener into the rather stupidly-placed rear mic hole (which is the same size as the tray opener hole) because I'm used to the removal hole being at the side of the tray and was rushing to get it up and running
I can't seem to get it to record anything, so can I assume that I've bust it or does it only kick in under certain conditions or in certain apps? I've tried downloading different voice recording apps but even the ones that allow you to switch mics don't seem to actually switch on the N7 - they just seem to use the mic on the top-right of the device.
Can someone on here test their mics and let me know if it records on both? I know that if I push my finger over the main mic I just get some ambient muffled sound (probably just being picked up by the covered mic).
I don't know how resistant the mic is to having a SIM opening tool pushed quite hard into it, stupid as I feel, I'm sure I'm not the only person to have made this mistake!
Thanks

I have not made the same mistake as you but my mic is not working either. Is working only the mic that is in the power button, but not the one on the Sim card tray...
Can any confirm that is a real mic and it´s working?
Thanks!
Mine too... not that loud compared to the main mic in power button.
Confirmed that the microphone is working only when the Nexus is on landscape mode.
I sent an RMA to Google thinking that the unit was faulty and then I came with the solution by myself. What a lack of knowledge of their own product!!
Hello guys,
I have bought this Pumpkin 11-C0362 head unit. I love everything about it except internal microphone (i will install external) and the fact that it goes into reverse camera mode when I put car in reverse gear. I do not have reverse camera, neither I want to install one as I am pretty happy with my own reversing skills.
Does anyone know how to turn this functionality off?

Since you don't tell which way your reverse camera is triggered. Can-Bus or wire it's hard to tell. The simplest way is to cut
the reverse cable in your HU loom. Normally orange or orange with a black strip, labeled back or reverse. Concerning your mic, best is to cut the internal mic and connect your external to the internal mic cables.

I think reverse camera is triggered by can-bus.
Regarding cutting internal mic and connecting external to the same wires, is there a tutorial anywhere on how to do it? I feel that it is more than i can handle without a proper guide.
Thanks.

In that case an electronic workshop is probably the best choice. Try to find the wire I'm talking about and cut it for the reverse.
The problem with most HU's is the fact that the front and the external mic is connected in parallel. Using the external, the front is still in the loop i.e
picking up noise. Doing my suggested mod, the external will take care of both BT-audio and Google voice.

i did disable the reverse camera mode by deleting the APK file from /system/app
i dont remember the file name but i think its MTCreversecam.apk
now about 3 months without unusual system actions
i did decide to delete the file because i already have the backup ROM files to recover if it fails

Hello silentsea01, I was very excited to read your comment because I am stuck with this stupid function as well and the chinese seller keeps on telling me to cut the wire - which I would if it wasn't so much work to uninstall the unit (Vauxhaul Astra, means tearing apart half the cockpit to get to the radio). And I think that a stupid software setting should be able to be fixed by working on the software.
Sorry for the rant , what I actually just wanted to ask you in the first place: I installed 2 different file managers - one of them even enabled showing hidden files - but can't find a system folder. Do I need root? Or can you tell me in details who you did it? I really hope for your help if you can find the time, thank you very much in advance.
Hello
I'm looking for an external zoom function for a cell phone. This would give a alternative to the pinch zoom or the volume keys. I was thinking finding one for the earphone jack or the charging port would be hard to come by so I was thinking Bluetooth would be easier but I'm just looking for whatever i can get. Who knows maybe I'm a little crazy. If you know someone or you know of it or you can redirect me to somewhere, anything will help!
Ps I'm not looking for a lens to go over the cell phone camera
