[MOD][ROOT] Stereo Audio Recording - Nexus 5X Themes and Apps

This is a mod to enable stereo audio recording with camcorder.
This isn't my work actually, it's done by @chdloc, i was looking for something like this and found his thread for nexus 5 and asked if he can make it for nexus 5x too. and he did it :good: so please give him thanks instead of me
Requirements:
Root
A file explorer ( i use solid explorer)
Installation:
make a backup of your stock media_profiles.xml and mixer_paths.xml files (attached in the "stock_files" archive for convenience)
manually push the two files in the "Stereo_audio_mod_nexus5x" archive to /system/etc/
adjust the permissions of the two files to 644 (rw-r--r--)
reboot
These are not flashable zips For flashable zip see post #2.
Enjoy stereo audio in all videos you record
Welcome side effect:
In addition to the camcorder now being able to capture stereo audio, all audio recording apps that allow the microphone
to be changed to the "camcorder" microphone (provided the app itself offers stereo processing) can take advantage of this mod, too.
Apps that are capable of recording stereo audio with this mod are "Voice Recorder" and "Easy Voice Recorder Pro".

I have created a flashable zip for the mod for you guys! @op feel free to add link in the first post

So with Google Camera I can't record stereo audio?

I assume this disables surround sound/dual mono mod, since it's replacing same files?

in mixer_path-
add this -
Code:
<path name="camcorder-stereo-mic">
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX7" value="1"/>
<ctl name="AIF1_CAP Mixer SLIM TX8" value="1" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_TX Channels" value="Two" />

<ctl name="DEC10 MUX" value="DMIC3" />
<ctl name="SLIM TX8 MUX" value="DEC7" />
<ctl name="DEC7 MUX" value="DMIC1" />
<ctl name="DEC7 Volume" value="78" />
<ctl name="DEC10 Volume" value="78" />
</path>
and modify this -
Code:
<path name="camcorder-mic">
<path name="camcorder-handset-mic" />
</path>
into this -
Code:
<path name="camcorder-mic">
<path name="camcorder-stereo-mic" />
</path>
That's what i see changed compared to stock.

Flashable zip with stereo camcorder and surround combined into one.
Please test whether it works, because I replaced the files on my phone manually.
Some info: Google Camera records in stereo @48 kHz ~98 kbps.
Snap Camera is available to record @48 kHz 192 kbps.

Test It on 7.11 puer nexus, working good!! Thank you for work....

Thank you for sharing

So this is a flashable zip with surround sound mod and stereo audio recording mod?

I'm not sure if this mod is responsible but since I flashed it my girlfriend claims that my voice reception is terrible. I told her for the last time stop blaming my phone, and to get something to replace that crappy Galaxy S3 of hers.

For me, the first zip does not break surround sound.

You may try to disable noise cancelling on your side by changing persist.audio.fluence.voicecall to false in build.prop. If it doesn't help, then her phone might be the problem

Flashing your zip didn't work for me, i had to manually copy both files to the system/etc folder.
Same with @przemcio510 combined zip file. I'm using the combined mod and both stereo recording and "surround" sound are working.

Stock_files.zip gives me a error och stock rooted mmf26f.

I increased the bitrate for the recorded audio to 192kbps as 96kpbs is pretty low for stereo and made a flashable zip with both stereo recording and DualMonoV2 combined. I've also attached a flashable zip with the stock files.
Thanks to @Jose-MXL @chdloc and @kraatus90 for these mods.

i dont like to talk alot here we go
use any explorer i prefer ES File it free and good
now starting
1- open the explorer and got to /system/etc/
2- scroll down till u find this file mixer_paths.xml and open it as text (ES File)
3- now scroll down till u find this line <!-- These are actual sound device specific mixer settings -->
under it look for this
<path name="speaker">
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />
<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />

<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="67" />
<ctl name="SPK DRV Volume" value="6" />
<ctl name="SPK DAC Switch" value="1" />
</path>
the red numbers will make the speaker loud and louder than stock LG roms also
me for 1st red line i use 75 for 2nd i keep it without any change
scroll down again till u find this lines
<path name="headphones">
<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />

</path>
this lines will make the headphone BOOOOM :cyclops:
for me 1st and 2nd 65
3rd and 4th 20
go high or low and test till u be satisfied
u can also gain handset and mic all in this file
use this guid at own ur risk
it will work for all G2 models using any kit kat rom.
Update 1:
In all CM and Aosp base the quality of speaker sound very bad because more bass
If u follow this steps u will have a close lg stock quality
1: download the last version of viper4android FX
2: open file explorer and go to system/app and delete DSP and reboot ur device
3: open file explorer and push viper4android FX to system/app then reboot
4: open viper4android FX and install driver (choose super quality) after it done reboot
5: open viper4android FX and under phone speaker check the box beside Enable v4A under master power
And under firequalizer check the box beside Enable and in select preset choose custom and in equalizer
down the 1st five bars from the left side
6: press menu and select show notification ( this is to make the app not closed by system)
If u don't see any change in sound make sure the viper4android driver is working by press menu and choose driver status
update 2 : if u just need a fix to reduce the bass from speaker u can use flash it from here
why is it that when I try to save the file it sasys "eror occured when trying to save the file. it will not be saved."? Im using ES File explorer
Edit: Silly me, I didn't make give es file explorer permission to rewrite files with root..
HOLY ****. that's very loud and AWESOME!! THANKS
Btw, will this switch back to default everytime i update CM11?
@Henryy97 yeah you'll have to do this every time you flash a nightly. It gets overwritten with every flash.

Some sounds gets distorted cause the speakers can't handle the higher output. Nothing to do except lowering the volume.

That's probably not as wise as the file you need to edit can be different from rom to rom and could possibly cause a softbrick or other issues. This is the safest way to do it.

I guess with ES File Explorer, I needed to let the entire file load or something. That little percentage meter at the bottom loads to a 100%. I was apparently trying to edit the file prior to that and all the contents weren't visible.

Use the app CyanDelta which is a delta update, it only downloads the changed files for each nightly and therefore is not going to replace that modified file each update, of course if the file gets changed then it will but that shouldn't be very often.

4.3-4.4 AOSP Camera app with Auto-gain audio

Anyone here used a Motorola device with stock camera app using "Concert" mode and been able to record crystal-clear audio in a noisy environment without distortion? Whether you have or not, it works very well an I am trying to figure out how to get similar results with my Qualcomm based AT&T branded Galaxy S4 running Cyanogenmod 11 latest nightlies. It'd be great to find out if any solutions will work for other devices as well. I know very well that iOS devices can record video in noisy environments flawlessly without having to change any microphone settings at all.
To begin, the stock touchwiz configuration and AOSP-based rom configurations currently capture extremely distorted audio when you are in loud environment on the Galaxy S4, quite certain most all of the other Galaxy devices as well. In a quiet environment, the audio capture is awesome and in 2 channel stereo.
Digging into the audio configuration file, I've found many parameters that can be adjusted, changed, replaced, etc.
The file /system/etc/snd_soc_msm/snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 is the audio configuration file.
It can be open and edited directly on the device using any text editor.
Here is the settings for the "camcorder" profile when recording video in the camera app:
Code:
[B][COLOR="DarkRed"]SectionDevice
Name "Camcorder Tx"
Comment "Camcorder Tx device"
EnableSequence
'SLIM_0_TX Channels':0:Two
'SLIM TX7 MUX':0:DEC3

'DEC3 Volume':2:84%
'SLIM TX8 MUX':0:DEC4

'MICBIAS3 CAPLESS Switch':1:1

'ADC3 Volume':1:0
'DEC4 Volume':1:67%
'MICBIAS3 CAPLESS Switch':1:0
EndSequence
ACDBID 56:2
EndSection[/COLOR][/B]
Adjusting volume percentages does result in differences in recording levels of the left/right channel, but what I am really looking for is the possibility of using Auto-gain control. I have read over and over that the audio hardware of these qualcomm processors do have auto-gain control in the audio processing. Does anyone know the perimeters here that enable it?
Apps like Tapemachine (a very awesome audio recording and editing app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samalyse.free.tapemachine ) has an option for Auto-gain control. Is this app using a hardware based auto-gain control or is it rendering within the app? Either way, any information leading towards the development of auto-gain control in video/audio recording in AOSP android would be great help. I'm not much of a programmer but I'm willing to dig into putting work into the AOSP camera app to enable this feature.
Thanks for reading.
-Steve
Changing the volume sensitivities in the lines above to something lower, ~54ish percent dramatically improved the audio recording in loud environments. The audio in my vehicle is really loud, figured it was a good place to test it. Before modifying the file, the sound was entirely inaudible distortion.
This works very well, it's just a drag to have to edit the file manually, reboot, and then go back to camera app and then record to get different levels of audio capture sensitivity.
Anyone want to help out with being able to control audio gain in video recording?
I'm looking for that too...
Do You compare gain and quality audio in video in Stock (Galaxy S4) and AOSP camera?
Camera App Name
Hi Steve,
I found your post very interesting. The issue is, I am not finding the camera app you are referring to (I am looking for an app with the possibility of lowering mic gain).
Thanks a lot!!

How u would do? It was so simple but we all was so stupid to find the how it work, it was just abt to copy and paste
In mixerpath.xml u just need to find the path
Speaker-and-headphone section
And Copy everything in that path and
Then delete everything in speaker section and paste the copied one, so simple I was
So much investing time nearly one month and now look the simplest way to do so stupid things take my time
But finally it works
Report if there is any bug
And I will try to push bass inside the two speakers without distortion let's try

I have a question:
we all know our xperia z1 loudspeaker is only 1 (mono) not stereo.
how can we produce stereo sound from only 1 speaker?
I checked your mixer_paths.xml.
it contains
<ctl name="TFA98XX_PARAM_TYPE" value="Playback" />
<ctl name="TFA98XX_CHANNEL" value="Both" /> --> I think it was taken from xperia z2 mixer_path.xml
<ctl name="TFA98XX_SPKR_AMP" value="1" />
<ctl name="DAC1 Switch" value="1" />
I wonder, will it working with our xperia z1?
thank you.

It means u don't understand BTW it's not the speaker settings and one more I uploaded new zip and this lines are useless ignore if u compare with original mixerpath.xml u will see
New lines begin from
CLASS_DSM_HPHL something like this u will see it
Rx 7 is for right speaker (actually it's loudspeaker)
Rx1 and RX2 is for left speaker (it's earpiece speaker) but RX2 don't work so
Logically rx7 for right and rx1 for left, try ur self,,

great
so far, the "stereo sound" sounds great !! -> I disable speaker settings sony(clear phase n xloud) to get better sound though.
I only implement "stereo" tweak, not headphone&microphone boost.
Great job !!:good::good::good:
anyway I have tried your bass mod, it sounds terrible.

1 more question
btw before I forget this thing, should we change "RX7 Digital Volume" value into 100 instead of 90 ??
because RX1 Digital Volume & RX2 Digital Volume values are 100.
i don't understand how we can have a stereo mode if we have only 1 loudspeaker. what's the second loudspeaker?

mixer_paths.xml help

Hi, I wanted to lower the JPG compression of Google Camera (I'm assuming stock is 85% I want to make it 95%) I also wanted to know I can increase microphone volume... I only know how to increase headphone volume, and speaker volume...thanks.
As far as I know the compression can be adjusted in media_profiles.xml.
I found that these lines need to be adjusted:
Code:
<!ATTLIST ImageEncoding quality (90|80|70|60|50|40) #REQUIRED>
<ImageEncoding quality="95" />
<ImageEncoding quality="80" />
<ImageEncoding quality="70" />
I changed all values to 100 and the quality seems to be a little better. If you want to reduce the compression you could also raise this value:
Code:
<ImageDecoding memCap="20000000" />
So the pictures are able to save more information, which will make them bigger, but they will be at a better quality (not that noticeable though).
And for microphone volume (for camera. I don't know which one is used during phone calls) in mixer_paths.xml under
Code:
<path name="camcorder-mic">
<path name="handset-mic" />
<ctl name="ADC1 Volume" value="15" />
change the value of
Code:
<ctl name="DEC6 Volume" value="88" />
I use the value of 96 for "DEC6 Volume", which seems to be ok, though I haven't tested it thoroughly.
I am not a dev so I cannot offer any warranty that this is 100% the most accurate method to do these, but I tested them on my Nexus and they worked so far.
If anyone knows better I'd like to hear their opinion, because I'm interested in these too.
Try Real Nexus 5 Volume booster in the app section for headphone and speaker boosts. The rest, I use Franco Kernel and I can modify it using his app. The above post is an informative way to do so without using a custom kernel or app.

Audio Patch for Redmi Note 5 AI [Whyred] Oreo. 9.5.11.x to Miui10. [Magisk]

.
For Redmi Note 5 AI GLOBAL users:
Tested on Global/China Rom.
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Magisk 16.x
1. Low volume fix on earphones/speakers, especially on games like PUBG, ROS, etc.
In-Game Low Volume Fix
2. Increased earphone volume with value of 5.
Increase Earphone Volume
3. Muffled sound output fix when recording loud music or audio.
Muffled Sound Output Fix
Thanks.
These are the edited files.
\vendor\etc
mixer_paths.xml
mixer_paths_mtp.xml
mixer_paths_wcd9326.xml
mixer_paths_wcd9335.xml
mixer_paths_wcd9340.xml
Added 5 on each of these lines on the xml files. It increases volume gradually while on earphones.
Code:
HPHL Volume
HPHR Volume
RX1 Digital Volume
RX2 Digital Volume
\vendor\etc\audio
audio_policy_configuration.xml
Added these lines. These were absent on 9.5.11 up to Miui 10.
It increases audio output on earphones on online games like PUBG, ROS, etc.
Code:
<mixPort name="raw" role="source"
flags="AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_FAST|AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_RAW">
<profile name="" format="AUDIO_FORMAT_PCM_16_BIT"
samplingRates="48000" channelMasks="AUDIO_CHANNEL_OUT_STEREO"/>
</mixPort>

sources="primary output,raw,deep_buffer,direct_pcm,compressed_offload,voip_rx"/>
\vendor\build.prop
persist.vendor.audio.fluence.voicecall=
persist.vendor.audio.fluence.speaker=
Set to false as they cause an issue with noise cancellation feature of the device.
Loud sound or music recorded on video/audio is like underwater or it's muffled all the time.

Hi @devcon69,
Will it work on Redmi note 5 pro Global version (9.5.13.0) as I am from India and hate the fact that I can't hear much on PUBG mobile?
If not, can you please make one file for Redmi note 5 pro global version or let me know which values in which files you changed for earphone audio

Any idea how to change the filters on the audio recording? I noticed that during video recording the audio seems to have a high pass filter. Meaning almost no bass.
@devcon69 and @kodorevi8ulis.
Thanks again, its working fine now but now output while listening to music on headphones is way loud, more like sound is getting distorted at full volume.
I will try to increase the volume by 4 in that case.

Nope, record a song with bass and then listen to the recording with a headphones. Seems that there is a high pass filter like at 150Hz or so.

I really don't know what you edited. Everything is posted here. You just edit the files according to your liking and find which is better. I've tried this and it all worked fine for me, well to my ears.. If you don't like the effect then restore the default settings.

Since when did I mock [email protected] about his English? I asked YOU about the high pass filter and even posted asking you to test this with a track with some bass and headphones. To me that is a very clear question. I'm a non native English speaker, so stop blaming of something which I did not do at all, that is just false accusation and not done! Maybe we should have some moderators have a look at this?
Good job... Finally low sound issues on pubg and other sound that use headset now solved... Great job!!!

If you have flashed the patch zip then restore it.
Open the patch zip file and extract and replace only one file: audio_policy_configuration.xml using root explorer.
Then set the permissions of newly created come as of other files.
Then restart. It's done
