[Q] Camera sound on GT-N7000

Can anyone suggest why I no longer get the camera shutter sound? It doesn't work with the stock camera app (I mean the one that comes with the ROM I'm using) or third party ones. I can't find any settings disabled.
I recently had a repair done at Samsung which involved replacing the motherboard. I didn't test every single setting and function when I got it back so am tempted to assume it is related to the repair but I could be wrong.
The camera is rooted and I'm using the Ultimate XXLT4 JB 4.1.2 v6
Thanks in advance

Camera shutter sound adendum
Has no one else come across this? Most posts about the shutter sound are about how to turn it off so I guess my problem is unique. I checked that the /system/media/audio/ui/shuter.ogg file is there. It is and I can play it manually with the stock music player. Other than that, I've no idea how to fix this. All othet system sounds and alerts sem to work ok.
I'm still hoping some expert out there can help.

Hello. When you mean you don't get a shutter sound, does that mean that in camera/setting/shutter sound already enabled but no sound? please note that music or notification volume level (I forgot which one) also play a part. If your volume level is 0 or very low, the sound will not be heard. This was a trick to eliminate shutter shound back in the days when the option to disable is not there.

Thanks for replying. This was the first thing I checked.
There's no option to enable/ disable shutter sound in the stock camera app I'm using and I imagine this is why so many people were asking how to disable the sound. Can't recall if I ever saw that in the settings menu. I also have an app called CameraPro which has an Enable Shutter Sound. This is enabled but , makes no difference. It's possible I'm using an older version of the stock cameras app but it seems to me this is not the cause as it makes no difference which camera app I use.
Thanks again.

I managed to fix this by installing the jobnik_Camera_Note_JB_Mod_v8_cwm.zip.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863362
Now both my camera apps have shutter sound enabled. Still don't know what happened since the previous version of the app worked fine before but that's often the way with computers: just happy to fix the problem in the end.
Thanks

[MOD] Sound tweak for android one running lollipop

This is a small tweak to increase the sample rate from 44100hz to 48000hz,
most of the users might experience little to no difference in sound after using this tweak.
so dont blame me and use it if you like it
just download the attachment file and extract it and copy the audio_policy.conf file to
system/etc/
directory
and replace it, reboot and enjoy.
here is the screenshot for confirmation

It might be possible your your headphones need more power for louder sound or your phone has bad audio chip or an software bug.

For now if you wanna listen music just use MIUI ROM because for now, most custom rom have a bad sound bug if use headphones uses jack port. For Bluetooth i don't know tho, i never use a Bluetooth headphones before so i can't tell, but i think the bug will affect Bluetooth too.

There is a great sound mod called "Ainur Sauron"
Here is the link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/soundmod-ainur-audio-t3450516
You just have to flash it, no need to setup anything else
I don't think it is compatible with MIUI
So you can try flashing it on a custom ROM
I've been using it for a while now, and my audio output improved greatly.
Hope this helps

Are you on earphones when the volume lowers? If so, maybe the V4A setting called "auditory system protection" causes it. Also, disable notification sounds/enable silent mode while you are playing music, or change the Poweramp audio focus setting (Poweramp -> settings -> audio -> untick Short Audio Focus change)
I used to have the same problem as you, when I was using Xtreme music mod and Dolby Atmos.

Can i flash this over dolby atmos? I need louder sound quality especially for dialogues through speakers. Dolby is already doing a great job. Should this one do any improvement? Or should i uninstall dolby and flash this? Need louder sound on speakers

This mod is compatible with all other audio mods, but make a backup of your system in case anything goes wrong. Try flashing it over your Dolby
I tried flashing Ainur first then Dolby, the Dolby app crashed.

[Magisk][Module] Low Headphone Volume Fix

I edited the mixer_paths.xml to fix the low headphone volume on MiA2 and created a magisk module since manual editing doesn't work.
It works on Pie March update. May not work on other versions.
Use it at your own risk. It is LOUD. Listening at a high volume for a long time may damage hearing.
Edit: Updated to V10.0.5.0

Thanks man! Its working great??

@onbeskarakterli Can you please tell what you edited in the file so that everyone can fix it themselves in case it stops working after software updates?

Well, the problem is we can't just edit the file on the phone. Editing doesn't make any difference and the phone reverts it. Magisk is the only way right now.

I have a request if you don't mind, I have limited experience in these config files.
One thing that bothers me about this phone is the audio quality in the videos it takes. The audio sampling rate is currently set to 96 kb/s which is extremely low for a phone made in 2018.
I have tried to edit it to 256 kb/s in the media_profile files under the vendor folder and flashed it with magisk but it is still stuck to the low quality setting. Any ideas?
Thank you

Thank you so much for this module. Works perfectly ?

Thanks @onbeskarakterli

Can you try gcam module and Google Camera app? I successfully changed the lines in that file but stock camera app still records at 96k. Gcam is at 160k-200k.

I tried that but it doesn't seem to work for me, do you mind sharing your files?

Wow finally thanks man I'm going to try it right now. Do you know why it keeps reverting to stock values? I tried several times before with no luck...I tried to change selinux as well to permissive but even that reverts back after a while. Why it works only with magisk? BTW it's great you already put it to 88 so it covers everyone's needs

This is the GCam I am using.

Try it and let me know the audio bitrate.

Manually changing doesn't work. You can't even save the changes you make. AFAIK Magisk virtually mounts system and vendor partitions and applies its own files and changes at boot time. That's why it works.
To be honest 88 is really high. I am using 85 right now, but I don't have any high impedance headphones.

Oh sorry I meant share the files where you made the bitrate edits, I already have the same gcam app.

What about the other media profiles files? What are they used for?

I assume the other profiles are for the different headphones and audio effects under settings>sounds>advanced. Correct me if I'm wrong

The mod does work through. Check out your /system/vendor/etc/media_profiles file when the module is active.

Yes the file is changed and it's set to 288000 now, but the audio quality in the videos are still horrible. I tried gcam, opencam, nothing works. I'm on pie 10.0.1

Screen recorder from OP7

If anyone is interested, the screen record from the Oneplus 7 Pro does work on the 6T.
You can download it here . Thanks go out to @acervenky for uploading it!

Nice. This is the most clean screen recorder I've ever used.

Just did a little test - works great!

You can't hear audio when it records internal audio.

Increase the volume and use viper

This only works on oxygen os? I have a custom rom....

using viper4a don't fix the issue with no sound output while record internal audio.
iam using latest stable btw not beta build rom.
If anyone have a solution for this problem it will be appreciate

Thanks for sharing. The screen recorder has been added to OnePlus 6T in the latest OOS 9.0.15 update!
