When I plug in an external microphone, even a headset with a built in mic, the internal microphone stays on, giving horrible feedback to any recorded sound. How can i disable the internal mic?
Is this an issue with the custom ROM?
Same here....

That's my last hope to easily make this work. Can anyone with a all stock SGS4G try using an external mic?
$50 reward for any dev that finds a solution to this. If it cant be solved within a week, im selling this thing and getting an iphone or HTC.
There is an app on the market called tasker that claims to have a mic on/off toggle. It's seven bucks, don't know if it works on our phones. Maybe contact the developer to see if it does.....

what rom are you using? is your phone rooted with cwm? if so, then factory reset, clear Cache and dalvik cache and reflash. then clear cache again. worked for me when i was a noob.

Tried the Tasker trial version, no go. Can anyone with a stock froyo SGS4G plug a mic in and test this for me? $50 bounty will be good till end of the week, then im selling the phone.
Tried it im Good... Might Just Be Certain Phones Wit Certain bugs... i have 2 phones One Stock n One Running 2.3.5 GB

Both of them are working with the stock and GB software? Which ROM are you using with GB? What mic was this with, not the built in headset was it? You have to hold the mic away then speak into the back mic to be sure.

Have you tried Supercurio's app?
I LOVE what it does for sound... makes your phone sound like a high-end device. I have the paid version, but here is the free if you want to try it out.

Yes, I tried and it does not help. Can anyone with an all stock SGS4G test this for me? I learned through some articles that the SGS2 produces even worse quality recordings? So if anyone has a phone without this bug, ill trade you for mine plus some cash. It amazes me that Samsung can put out such wonders of technology plauged by such stupid problems.

You should send @supercurio an email or tweet. The guy is a genius.

Been exchanging emails with him, very nice guy.
Still hoping someone here with a stock SGS4G can test this.
Try with different headsets. I had no problen when i was using froyo stock. Maybe it is the brand not compatible. Only guesses here. Btw if it solves the issue. Give bounty to a dev. Raver, krylon, dsexton or drhonk or whitehawk.

Hmm, using the stock headset it records fine, with the internal mic turned off as it should........
Whats different about the stock headset mic from every other mic ive plugged in???? Is the pinout the same with the mic as the 'sleeve' contact?

Nice try. I offered this to any dev that had a software solution to turn off the internal mic. No one here has taken that up, and im yet to have anyone tell me definitively that the are using a hand held microphone, not a headset, with froyo.

Okay I am trying to understand everything with cyanogenmod here. so far i have rooted my phone (2.2 voodoo kernel/custom recovery). I am wanting to put cyanogenmod on it because ive seen/heard the many features that it has to offer. Upon reading all this I am coming confused and need to know is there a "Stable and working" cyanogenmod for the samsung mesmerize? and how to put it on the phone if there is. Please and thank you

This has all been covered in the actual CM thread, all of our ROM's are stable they just have some missing features (AOSP built ones anyway)
MMS seems to be an issue right now, i have tried apns backup and reinstall and no luck. The other issue i have noticed is the cameras highest res is 3mp, but is fully functional. I also got 2694 on quadrant, if you have never used cyanogenmod i highly recommend it. Coming from a desire this is a bit of a step backwards, but no other rom will do. That being said, it's highly customizeable compared to other roms i have tried.
So the only thing not working is MMS?

Any tips for using wireless tethering on this ROM? I couldn't find it in Settings so I'm using an app but it unusably slow. Has the stock menu option been removed? I don't see USB tethering either.
Also, is there a way to get Swype back? Maybe this method? http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-841603.html

Thanks, I'll check it out. I went back to super clean for the time being, as I also couldn't find any way to access my phone from my windows pc with cyanogenmod - I guess you need a separate app for that too? I will have to do some more research before using that rom. Can't wait, it is by far the easiest on the eyes.

Why don't you just put your contacts on your Google account?
thats the best way to save contacts cause then it auto syncs back to the phone on any rom
In hindsight ... it would have been the wiser choice.

The original is a couple of threads down from this one. I'll link to it. The original was designed for the Vibrant but most of the sounds work for the SGS4g and was created for Froyo. I'd design this one for to GB.

I'll start working on this very soon. Just started my new network engineering job so I don't have as much free time as I had. I'm looking for a good statement for the startup sound. Anyone got one?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I never liked the shutdown sound with the old package and always used the shutdown from ravers bump in the trunk room she said "galaxy system shut Dow n initiated systems offline" or something. Do an inversion like"startup sequence initiated systems online". I also wish the notifications were shorter. Do "incoming text", incoming (whatever)" and do one for a generic/default notification the old one lacked that. Not trying to be picky but you asked for suggestions. Like I said Linda can say whatever she wants

A linda project for GB roms would be AWESOME!!!!! Linda instead of bootloader sounds, and for notifications....this would be awesome. My girl calls my phone Linda, it's kinda jealous of the time i spend on the computer, messing with my phone, but mostly a joke....This would be GREAT!!!
AWESOME!!! I took the ZIP and unzipped it. Then I Replaced the files in my system using the root explorer, with the files in the "Linda.zip" folder, and vioala!!!!
Now, if anyone knows how I can add audio to the boot animation,I have read a ton of posts through searching to no avail let me know...
also this is the voice of the computer "Vicki" from IRobot. How can I get this voice, and manipulate it for a boot animation phrase?
It's called PowerOn.wav . make sure the size its equal to or less than the original and the quality level is exactly the same or it won't work.

He added some special effects to the Linda voice that I'm trying to mock but I can't get the reverb to sound good like he did, the plain "Old-Robot Linda" voice sounds like crap without any reverb to it.

Hello all,
Wondering if anyone can recommend a good call recording app for the Skyrocket? One that actually does work? lol
I've tried a number of them and none work at all. Those that do work only on speakerphone. One that I managed to get working was not stable and extremely poor sound quality.
I find it hard to believe there isn't an app that does provide this functionality for this particular phone. I've always found a good one with all other Android phones I have owned.
Hoping somebody out there found one or tweaked one to get it working properly?
Thanks,

Got a weird problem here with my 1727r. Rooting is is basically the only thing I've done with it, no fancy roms or anything.
Here's the problem: People can only hear my talking to them when I put them on speakerphone. If i'm using the phone like a regular hand-held, they don't hear me. I even tested this myself, calling my home landline and leaving my skyrocket near some speakers. Nothing comes out the other end. Tried with speakerphone and it works.
android version: 2.3.5
kernel: 2.6.35.11
Would really appreciate some help if anyone can offer some.

Well, generally there are ways of fixing things, this forum is full of details of tuning every little part of your phone and getting all the potential out of it. I was expecting it to be possible to fix, as that's what I usually do when my items break, but it seems you're intent on being useless. So I'll just award you full marks for that and try to get help elsewhere.
It seems like a hardware problem that software tweaks don't fix. Good luck with it man
