Recording Video - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed that when recording video on my Nexus 5 that the audio is low and has Static. Is this a defect that I should start a RMA on? My phone is completely stock
So after I talked with Google and they had me do a Factory Reset on my phone, it has fixed the issue with the static. I still think that the phone is recording the audio to low, but it is better than it was before.

Are you SURE it's fixed? There are many, many people with this issue. (http://goo.gl/XdnwGY) I've done factory reset, custom ROMs, covering top mic, different 3rd party camera apps....nothing fixes it.
Apparently Google is looking into it, but I for one am pissed and get more pissed by the day.

I have read that a lot of people are having a similar issue and while the Static is not there anymore I do get a Low hiss from the audio which was there before as well. Now there is no static and I can hear the recorded audio clearly. Its not perfect, but it is better than it was. I am still Stock

Skype sound output problem

All the Skype video calls I was making used to be outputting their sound over the phone speakers. Recently, however, this seems to have changed. The sound is now only outputted via the earpiece, and I do not seem to be able to find the cause of the change, nor how to change it back. There is no speaker toggle button. Makes the video calling fairly cumbersome, since I have to put on the headphones (or Bluetooth), and cannot have a couple of people take part in the call at my end. The recent upgrade (2.5) did not correct the problem. What is annoying is that it was working OK before. I am just not sure before what. Any ideas anybody? Android 2.3.4 (stock HTC/T-Mobile), Skype is most recent stock version.

try viber.
I just used this like 2hrs ago, Toggle the mic button. I thinks it's a red icon, I've had this problem before. If not then try clearing the data. Let's us know.
Switching to another tool (viber) is not an option - it would take me less time to re-code Skype from scratch myself than to get my parents on a different program.
This is still an issue. The only way I am able to work around it is to quickly plug in my earphones and the unplug them. That seems to force skype to switch to the speaker away from the earpiece. I guess I'll have to deal with this until a future version takes care of it (hopefully).

Help me to buy an original HTC MHL Cable and an original HTC One X+ 2100mha battery, i'll try to add full battery support for One S and video-out at [email protected], i read somewhere that FullHD support is crappy
Other things you can do:
Help me to understand what's the best kernel/rom combination, so i can try to fix incoming call quality (incall volume fading).
I must say that I'm a little surprised that the noise suppression is done in the phone apk, wasn't expecting that at all. I will definitely test this to see if my theory was correct. And if it really fixes the problem, you've definitely earned yourself a beer.
Is this for Maximus HD also ?

I think it's my bad, noise suppression is referred to our mic, not incoming call. So this mod can help to fix outgoing call problems, not incoming ones.
The good news is that i have an idea, i may know where are parameters to change incoming call settings too
@luxandroid, @rosswhite, @CazeW: can you tell me what rom/kernel (new or old rom) is/was working better for you (regarding in call quality)?

The quality is great, better than with 4.1.1, if the signal is good and thats almost everytime the case if not connectet to a data network.

That's from a different thread. Don't know if that causes the problem but I am a 100% sure that there was no data when calling on 4.1.1...maybe it logged into GSM network as stunner2002 said?!
EDIT: when googling found something about dual mode transfer setting (ro.ril.enable.dtm) in build.prop. Was that disabled in 4.1.1? Does that have anything to do with it?

This ROM and this kernel is what I used before MaximusHD and had no problems with call quality.

May be it's just me but the fading only happens to me when I'm on the phone to a landline (and not all the time). Mobile phones seem to be ok.
Outgoing is definitely no issue so I'm not sure how noise supression has anything to do with it
For me the quality only gets bad when the other side speaks quiet. If the person speaks loud, quality is okay. When the opposite is speaking quiet, it seems some parts are cut off...

I don't know why i haven't experienced any in-call volume issues. May it be incoming or outgoing. In fact, in-call volume is more louder now on maximusHD than when i was on viper before. But in case in the future, if i experience those issues (hopefully not. ), i might try flashing this mod. Thank you anyway.
The problem happens with headphones too?
This is for me to understand if issue is earpiece related only
I'm still unable to reproduce the problem
I'll post soon a mod to improve earphone volume, it may help a little bit
Japp, headphones to. It wouldnt fix it if the volume is raised its a Software issue. I notice sometimes the data connection is disabled by default when i call someone. If its the case Sound quality is outstanding. But its not always the case it disables automatically

I've had data completely disabled and still get problem so I doubt it's caused by that. And I agree that raising the volume will most likely do nothing to fix it.
I could also mention that I've tried both a different kernel (ElementalX) and a different radio and still had the problem.
I really think i've found the bastard now it's kernel related
please test this kernel, it should fix incoming call quality issue:

Nexus 5 stutters and has audio distortion when using only YouTube

I'm on my third Nexus 5 that has had issues, and every single one of them have had this one. When using YouTube the video is jerky and stutters, and randomly there will be audio distortion and pops from the speaker. This is the third Nexus 5 I've had with this issue, and nothing I find can fix it. I can barely find any info on the internet about it.
From what I can tell it is limited to YouTube. The thing is, my old S2 on 4.1.2 had no such issue. None of my other electronics have any issues with YouTube to the degree this does. I'm past believing it is an issue with my phone(though it might be), because as I said, I'm on my third Nexus 5 with this issue.
Has anyone else had this issue? What are my options in trying to fix it? I've had such a bad experience with the Nexus line I'm close to giving up and buying a different phone. This is driving me crazy.
I hope someone can help. Thanks.

App is up to date, and my internet speed is at least 10mbps. I have 30 at home and have the same issues. It does this at home, here at work, and on 4G. But it couldn't be the internet connection as it works fine on my old phone and other devices.
Here's some more info.
Stock, unrooted, stock kernel, 4.2.2. I've been tempted to root and unlock the boot loader to install a new kernel and see if that helps, but I'm not used to rooting Nexus devices and don't want to make it difficult to upgrade to 4.4.3 when its released. Hopefully that will fix this issue, but Google has been radio silent on it so I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket.

I assume by 4.2.2 you meant 4.4.2
Try clearing data and cache on the YouTube app, if that doesn't help try uninstalling/uninstalling updates and reinstalling/reupdating.

Exactly. It's why I've ruled it out being a hardware issue, because this has happened to two other Nexus 5's I've been in possession of. It's so weird.
I've unlocked the bootloader, rooted it, all the fun stuff. I'm gonna try a new kernel to see if that will fix it.

Hiya,
Im having this issue as well. Some of the videos have disortion and stutters, but its not in youtube app. When I play videos form the websites it happens but, not in all of them. Dont know why some are ok and others dont. Sometimes its really annoying, especially when it stutters a lot in the playedback video. I do not know if its a hardware or a software issue.
EDIT:
Just checked the same video in Android Authority app and in Youtube app. In the first app audio stutters and being a wee bit choppy, in Yt however, everything is fine. Audio is clear, no stutters at all. So I assume its software issue and maybe audio codecs dont play well with third party apps. Also, I dont think there is a solution to this problem.

I am getting very stuttery/laggy/crackly audio over wired headphones and speaker on O

Hello! I never had a problem with my Google Pixel until now.
I downloaded and installed the official Android 8.0 update for my Pixel. As soon as it booted, I did what I normally do and I opened up my audiobooks player to play my 4 hour long MP3 that I listen to. I noticed immediately that the audio was stuttering and crackling, like the way a very old PC would do when you had too many things running while you tried to listen to music.
It is not a bluetooth issue because it happens with wired headphones and even with the internal speaker. It does it whether or not my phone is rooted (does not make a difference). I do not have a lot of apps installed. Again, this did not happen at all on Android N.
The issue is not just with my audio book player app. While it does not happen in Youtube, it also happens if I try to play a video in a web browser. The same horrible audio lagging/stuttering.
I did not see anyone complain about this, so I am at a loss for what it could possibly be. Anyone with any pointers I would greatly appreciate them! It is driving me crazy!
It happens to me too, I have to clear all apps from the background and reboot. Then the audio go back to normal.

Yeah, you're probably right. I'm beginning to think that perhaps an app that's installed is conflicting with either ram usage or the audio drivers. Unfortunately, in order to find out what it is, a clean system would be needed at this point. No apps installed, test out the audio. If it works then you're in for a long day adding each app one at a time. If it still doesn't work I'd try another set of headphones, although that seems ludicrous. Lastly, since you're rooted you can go back to N if it's that important to you and report the heck out of it to Google. Good luck guys.
Not that it matters to you that much, but I listen to the headphones every day, Spotify, Pandora, Sports Gold and not a single issue on any of them. Bluetooth is another story, but wired static is rare. Search Google issues see if you come up with anything.

I have no issues with streaming services which is probably why you don't have the issue. It only happens to me in audio playing from a web browser or local audio files.

Pixel 4 xl * popping noise * manufacturing defect * known hardware issue *

Hello XDA,
Just got off the phone with google, and found out that the issue with the popping noise in videos is not something they can fix via software . Google Engineers have recommended swapping out the whole device as there is no known fix via software for this issue...
What is even worse is that in order for you to receive a replacement they are asking for a pre-authorization charge on a card until they receive their defective device back.... Like we asked for a defective device....
i do understand the concern of them not getting their phone back but dang... that Sucks!!
Edit *
If anyone will the pixel 4 XL can reproduce the problem on their phones that would be great I want to know if this is happening to a lot of phones or simply to some..
record audio through an app and see if the popping noise happens or record a video using SnapChat Instagram Facebook and see if it happens if it does I feel that Google should acknowledge this and try to fix this as soon as possible
Popping noise in video?
Can you post an example?

According to them, yes . I was promised that I would not encounter the same issue with the next version that I got. I do recall the same thing happening with the blue hue on the 2 xl . it wasn't necessarily revision it was just one that was better than the other but the underlying issue was still there..
Hmm that's interesting. I was able to reproduce it with an Instagram story. I only record videos in the stock app but maybe I'll save getting a replacement for 1 year so that I can get a fresher battery. [emoji1]

I actually recorded just audio on Facebook messenger through the microphone recording option and it does it on there as well it's not just video whatever is recording is adding that sound.. at first I thought it was just audio but after hearing the recording I just did I realize that it might be something in the input driver that's messed up.. not necessarily having to do with video but probably with the neural core processing more important tasks like the Google Assistant's built in functionality.
crap i just checked my p4xl on snapchat and noticed the popping noise too. guess when i was using the past 2 weeks i always had a lot of background noise anyway to notice
Glad to see people are talking about this on here. I always assumed it as was going to be a software fix as I swapped my 4XL 2 days ago to "fix it" but it wasn't fixed, guess we have to wait for a new batch. argh
It doesn't happen on the stock camera recording app and it doesn't happen on some third party apps. It probably is a software issue that can be addressed with a patch in the future. I really would take what Google Support tells you with a grain of salt. I swapped out a device for another reason and they both had the popping noise on some third party apps and never on the stock camera app recording. You probably will get another one with the same issue as I highly doubt they made a hardware revision and the rep was probably just telling you what you wanted to hear to get you off the phone. I've heard it all before "Oh, we'll have someone in the warehouse check for it before we ship it out". Replacement comes and it has the same issue and you know it's all BS they tell you.
I could reproduce this error with an Instagram story. However this did not occur with WhatsApp voice messages. Maybe it is really a software issue?
Like the YouTube audio description says it happens on my playground mode while recording playground video.

Pixel 4 defect mic pop/click
I have the pixel 4, and it also makes the popping/clicking sound. I send it in for a replacement with google and the new one does it too. Now I have to return both, and stay with the pixel 3 for now. They almost didn’t let me return the replacement because I bought the original on release date from them and we are in November now.
Sounds happens, on Tiktok, Snap, Facebook and anything That recorded sound.
