[Q] help with video recording needed - HTC Sensation

i did some video recording on my sensation xe and allthough the video quality itself was ok the sound was very badly distorted.
I have read on here that it can be improved by switching the stereo option to 'off' but wondered if there was another way around this.
I believe my sensation is rooted and am sure i have seen something on here about a camera/video mod that has been built into some of the new roms.
i dont really want to try the roms themselfs but would like to use the camera mods etc but thought that it said they were for sense 3.5 and mine is on the standard sense3.0
anyone know how or what i can do about this and how to get the camera/video mod on my phone.
thanks

I had the glitches in video itself...and formatting my SD card solved it.... I am not sure about sound quality..... but you can always try it if you dont get any answers

thanks for the reply but dont think its related to the card.
i really need the zip or whatever for the camera mod like the amaze one that i can install on the standard firmware with sense 3.0

You won't hear any improvement until moving to the Sense 3.5 test leak or the ICS builds for the stereo Mic gain/clipping problem.
If you move to a sense 3.5 rom, try Bulletproof, as that worked well for me. I can confirm that ICS is fine also running the latest Elegancia Rom.
HTC never fixed this issue in the Sense 3.0 builds and no camera mods fix it.
The camera mods all had to do with tweaking the photos and upping the nitrate of video recording.
I do a lot of video recording of my daughter and sound is very important.
Hope this helps.

Stock Camcorder CM7 vs Stock HTC Camcorder

Is it just me, or is the camcorder in CM7 worse when recording? I feel as if there's more "blur" (ghosting I think it's called?) when playing back compared to a video that's been recorded on an HTC ROM. Since it's impossible to get the HTC camera/camcorder working in CM7, does anyone know of a good substitute for both (or at least the camcorder)?

Agreed, I have problems with my camcorder skipping frames on playback. quite a nuisance. dont have problems playing youtube videos though.
i'm using saga 1.1, but contemplating flashing a new rom and trying that.
They seem to be of different formats, cm7 runs on the mp4 format while the htc runs on the 3gp format, i did had many problems with this since video related apps didnt worked properly (like video chat apps) I hope there will be fixes/improvements coming!
I've found different roms have varied results, don't know if sense causes the issues or if having to many running programs has an effect either

HTC Inspire 4G Bluetooth Audio Skip

Okay so this is a weird issue. When using the stock ROM for my Inpsire 4G (or any variation of sense ROMs) I get this occasional audio skip on my car's bluetooth audio. The phone is connected to both the phone and the media features of my Pioneer AVIC-X930BT the audio sounds absolutely fine then all of a sudden theres a drop in the audio for about half a second and the music has to catch up. Its not really a skip more of a lag. This issue does NOT exist with completely different ROMs such as CM7. In CM7 I have no issues whatsover. What could be causing this and how can I fix it? I absolutely LOVE Sense ROMs and have tried the latest Android Revolution HD (almost fixes it) and RCMixHD 1.5 and all have the same issue. Its not my SD card because as I said it works fine in CM7 however I do not like the look of CM7 and the "sense like" widgets are not to my liking. Thanks so much and I realllly hope there is a fix for it. Perhaps a custom kernel would do it? Or a different radio? Thanks.
P.S. Yes I know it works for some of you with no issue...but sadly I've been having this problem for a while and it's been bothering me a LOT.

The main issue is the BT stack that is used with the roms. CM7 uses a different one if I remember right. So not alot you can do unless you want to rebuild the rom yourself

[Q] camera gain clip

It seems that the Htc camera doesn't like my.
Yet I've discovered another problem that's include the camera. It seems that if I make video's the mic is clipping. It a shame realy with that great of a camera.
I'ts only with the camera and not when I call.
I've searched but couldn't find a similar thread. Someone ideas?
it has been fixed in the amazed camera, you can flash it. But for a instant solution just switch off stereo recording, it should be better.
Thanks but the amazed camera is only for sense 3.5 right?
yes, but I dont see no problems with sense 3.5 so far, and i have been using it quite a while now.
I like to overall look of sense 3.0. I've used other 3.5 rom's but ARHD 3.6.7 suits me best and the camera is the only thing bugging me
The camera clipping noises is one of the biggest reasons as to why I moved to sense 3.5. It's fixed in 3.5 and works great for me
you can still turn off stereo recording if you really dont want to move to 3.5. I like it much better than 3.0 but thats my opinion...
Sense 3.5 completely takes care of the problem. That also was the main reason I jumped to 3.5. I think it does exist a bit in the Amaze cam mod, and also the Blu ray mod as well. Turning stereo off helped in those mods but not completely.
I wish we knew where the problem lies....is it a kernel issue or something else?

hmm strange.. First I thought it was a hardware problem. Never thought it was this deep in the software
Yeah I found it the hard way by going on vacation at the end of the summer, and while the video looked good, they were practically unwatchable do to the mic clipping. It's been written about here a lot. Also if you head over to the Amaze forums you'll see people complaining with the same issue.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread.....I had some time today to play around with some other sense 3.5 Roms. I tried the latest Insert Coin, Sensay, and Elegancia. If any of these Roms had the Amaze camera I flashed the stock sense 3.5 camera after wiping caches. To my amazement after doing some testing, the high Mic gain came back in stereo recording, just like it did in sense 3.0 roms. So I restored my backup of Bulletproof 2.2.1 and did some stereo recording with the stock 3.5 camera and it sounds normal and good, the way it should. So right now Bulletproof is the only 3.5 sense Rom doing it for me.
Anyone have an idea what is being overwritten in some of the other sense 3.5 roms that would cause the high Mic gain to come back? I have some ideas that it could be remnants of the amaze cam mod, since that is technically a sense 3.0 camera, or possibly the beats mod. Wish I knew because I'd love to jump on one of these other Roms but decent audio for video is important to me.
Again sorry to resurrect this thread.

Hq camera issues

Hi all
So i rooted my HTC and its working amazingly and very smooth but there is some issues there not major maybe a fix in a update. ) when I take continus photos if you hold for to long it will exit and not save. also slowmo video seems to close the apps on access not massive issues just wanted to help if it hasn't been posted

Have you tried a custom rom? ARHD is more stable than stock and it comes with an HQ camera option to take higher quality pics.
You sound like you're running a Sense 4.0 ROM. This has always been a problem with Sense 4, you'll have to live with it if you want to stay on Sense 4.0. Sense 3.6 does not experience this problem, however.
Funny thing i posted this thread then came on the ad for THE HTC ONE WITH 4G and the whole fastshooting thing im like...oh wait thats what my phone looks like..HAHA then i worked out it was probs sense 4 normal photos are really nice, so its not a big deal hopefully a fix comes out eventfully

Miui camcorder problem... help wanted

Hey guys, first off I want to apologize if this is wrong area for this or if this has already been posted, but yes I have looked and haven't found anything about it.... so I have a HTC One S running the latest MIUI.... the problem is, I go to the default camera, switch it over to video recording, and it'll take the video just fine.... problem is when you go to play it or even preview it, it has a ton of lines through it, it's blurry, you see triple of everything, etc....same thing if you plug it into computer and play the vid.n help is greatly appreciated guys!
Are you on the cm9 base or the Sense base? I know the cm9 one was having camera/camcorder problems.
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
I believe CM9 base? I ran cm9 before and I froze the HTC sense **** lol. Not positive though, I can check if needed but I'll need to know how xD I'm still a little new to messing with Android.
There is no fix for this yet on roms that are not sense based, due to HTC using a special undocumented imaging chip for the camera in one S. If/when it is fixed I guess it'll come to miui quick.
