[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lukas_s:
I'm wondering if anybody else is having (or ever has had) this issue.

I try to sideload an app, yet I can't click the install button. It just won't do anything. I'm on CleanROM 4.7, and have been since that version came out. Last time I successfully sideloaded an app was last Wednesday, and since then nothing will work at all. Yes, install from unknown sources is checked and all that. Literally nothing has changed in my phone setup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrevankyle:
What are you trying to sideload?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
Why not just try pushing what ever app it is into your system?:confused: Then just fix permissions and reboot!! Not sure what app your trying to get but might help with your issue...

Just my 2¢®:cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lukas_s:
Icon pack that is not in the Play Store yet. Developed by a friend of mine. It sideloads onto my Samsung Infuse just fine.

Thanks! I'll give that a shot.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mecronmancer:
So I've gone to several concerts with my Samsung Galaxy S3 and I've noticed... Every single video recording with the stock app is absolutely terribad. The video portion is okay (Great for a smartphone) but the audio is absolutely horrendous. I've lately been wanting to find an external microphone that could possibly connect via the 3.5mm jack and serve as the primary mic for picking up sound.

I've scoured the Interwebs for little success on a good external mic that fit my needs. Here are my findings - correct me if I'm wrong in an area:

1. The mic, in order to be recognized by the SGS3 as a mic, needs to have an impedance of over 1000 omegas and has a TRRS 3.5mm jack.

2. There are actually very few compatible mics that would work with the SGS3. One example is the Edutige ESM 01O, which is overpriced and the specs and reviews do not show that it's a good live music recorder.

3. All other vaguely compatible mics are also not good at recording live music, especially bass heavy music (Which is what I frequent). The compatible lavalier mic I found is not what I need.

4. I actually found a mic that is designed for recording live music - the Edutige EIM-004 - BUT it's not compatible with the SGS3, to my dismay. It also costs $80.

So here's my problem - I need a good external microphone that's compatible with my SGS3 that is capable of recording live music with little distortion. Preferably, I'd like a low cost (Ballpark of $20-$50)I've already got the software covered, there are a few apps that I've looked up that fit my needs.

Here's my phone specs:

AT&T Samsung Galaxy SIII i747 running Cyanogen Mod 10.0.0

I'd really appreciate any help. Posting here is probably the last thing I can try, considering how there's almost nothing out there to help me resolve my situation. Thanks guys.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mecronmancer:
I really need an answer, guys. Above & Beyond is coming to town in a few days and I'd really like to record them with my SGS3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TheParadox:
I'm also interested. :good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Agent3:
I'm still looking for a solution myself as I also do concerts recording with my S3. The audio recording sounds much better when you aren't as close up to the speakers. I know it would also help if we could block some of the sound coming in. Like ear plugs to block some of the dB.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mecronmancer:
I've heard of a few apps that reduced the mic's gain and applied a few filters to clean up the sound, but I don't know how much the sound quality improves.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] DAvid_B:
http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=390-810

Here's a calibration mic might work.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mecronmancer:
I like this mic, David. The only problem is the impedance. The mic is 200 ohms but the SGS3 needs a mic of at least 1000 ohms in order for the mic to be recognized as a mic. Otherwise it'll only be recognized as a headset.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Agaranda:
For concert recording try the negative mic gain in Boeffla kernel.

I9300XXEMD3, Boeffla 2.12, Earsonics SM3v2
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ExTREmE99:
i know this isnt going to help much, but i simply cover the mic's slightly with my hands. when i have my phone in the air recording something, phone horizontal, i place my hands in front of the mic holes, so it only records sound from behind my hands. this helps ALOT.

and what do you know...i'm also an A&B fan. recorded last weekend with the above trick:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q11VCIyLB3g
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mecronmancer:
Nice! Hope you had a good time at the show haha. I think this is going to be my temporary fix to the problem (Considering how A&B is coming to town tomorrow I've lost all hope of finding a mic in time), but I'll still need a solution for when I go to Ultra... Because their Funktion One systems are definitely too powerful for this fix.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themadproducer:
A quick answer for yah Mecronmancer.

- otg usb cable (couple of bucks)

- Digital to Analogue converter with USB (Appr $30) Behringer UCA222 is what I have.

- USB recording app...USB Audio Record or Audio Evolution. Both apps from Same guys.

- Microphone or analogue stereo inputs (Sky is the limit here)

- a rom that supports this arrangement. My i747m S3 with Stock ICS 4.0.4 works flawlessly with this arrangement.

You will get 16bit, 44.1k Stereo recording quality. Will it record while another app is recording Video? That I don't know. Thiis may be your one caveat. I might give it a shot sometime this week and report back.

UPDATE:

I simultaneously recorded USB Audio with the USB audio app and Video+mic audio with the built in ICS video app successfully. So if it was me, I would combine the 2 source recordings using a PC app and have HQ audio with Video. You just need to time align the 2 in sync very easily since you would have lofi mic audio and hifi usb audio sources.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] guy48065:
What is the power source for the ADC?

Can anyone comment on the audio quality recording stereo to a phone with this setup?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themadproducer:
[MENTION=5603337]guy48065[/MENTION]

The UCA222 can be powered from your Smart Phone, in my case, the SGS3. I had to buy a female-A-USB-to-Male-micro USB plug. They are inexpensive. I can't remember if this cable had to be an OTA version. (On The Go)

In my car, if my memory serves me well, I had the USB split with one end going to the SGS3 and the other into my USB cigarette lighter charger. I didn't end up using it in my car because it didn't interact well with the phone call audio stream etc. Lots of glitching.

RE-Recording Sound Quality

Unless your a professional audiophile or sound engineer with impeccable trained ears, the recording quality is flawless and blows away what I could do without it. An app like Audio Evolution Mobile is a great combo, especially if you have a larger and fast tablet.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] guy48065:
Ok so it doesn't get power from the phone and it has no batteries. Darn. ..I was hoping it could be a handy mobile recorder.

A splitter usb + battery supply is borderline too cumbersome.

Price is great though -- I might tinker with it as a means to dub vinyl to files.

Does anyone make a $30 adc that includes a phono preamp? Lol.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themadproducer:
@guy48065

You miss read. ;)

YES...it CAN definitely be powered from the smartphone.

Read my reply post again.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] guy48065:
I didn't think phones were capable if supplying usb power so when you wrote about the OTG cable *and* the splitter with power I assumed you needed both.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themadproducer:
No problem. It's a very small investment for what it can offer.

If you own a sx66 then this upgrade is for you and should be a better one than your last.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] BeyondtheTech:
You'll first need to unlock your Extended ROM.

Download this file and run it on your SX66:

http://www.beyondthetech.com/downloads/phone/modding/BA_ExtROMTools.cab

Then go Start > Programs > ExtROM Tools > Unhide.

Reboot your SX66, then you'll see a folder called Extended_ROM. Copy that out to your desktop, then up to the FTP site at

ftp://xda:xda@xda-developers.com

Just in case you didn't know, this folder contains the first programs and settings that it runs upon a hard reset.

Please let me know when you're able to do this. Perhaps somewhere in there is the key to resolve my annoying "05"-text-message-for-voicemail notifications issue.

I've downloaded this update. It has the same bluetooth version as 1.31WWE, no WMP10, but several DLLs like btagsvc.dll are newer. Radio is 1.02, which is obsolete.

Format of NBF files is changed, I've explained it in "hacking" section.

Extended ROM contains old apps, the only useful thing is WLANPatch.CAB. I don't know what RestartRadio.exe and AddContacts.exe programs do, maybe they also worth installing.

I've uploaded this update converted to the old NBF format to ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/BlueAngel/1.33.10WWE-from_SX66/

After the upgrade, my keyboard no longer works???!!!?? No lights in the buttons when I slide it out, no icon in the settings section to control the keyboard light timeout etc. It is as if the device totally has forgotten that a keyboard is present.....????

Have anyone seen this? I am abosultely floored.... The keyboard was one of the main reasons I got the SX66 in the first place.

Oh, and BTW: The sound quality of my Jabra 250 headset still sucks....

I'm getting real tired of this thing.....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
The sx66 is a PH20B1 Versions With No Camera, this would eplain the lack of the camera and icon in 1.33. ( I base that info of wiki )

The harrier is a PH20A2 Version with no wifi, the would explain the lack of those files in 1.35.

So we can say that the major versions 1.22, 1.31, 1.35 are built around the model of the device.

For the camera there is a patch.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_ERK_Patches_122

There is a new patch in the harrier 1.35 which I hava looked at but not cooked in the kitchen (2.21 build 17576).

Both patches are a camera.exe replacement only. I have not looked at weather there are any reg entries around for it So the best thing I would sugest is load the patch, create a short cut and assign it in the buttons.

@ mamaich

Again you have done some great work, thanks.

Given that you have such a deep understanding of the new structure and encription (and no I wont ask) do you think that you could create a Wiki page with the new header fromat such as.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] BeyondtheTech:
mamaich's upgrade only upgrades the CE ROM, not the Radio or Extended ROM. If you want to throw in the 1.06.02 Radio ROM from the FTP, then just place it in the folder before running the upgrade.

The upgrade utility will attempt to upgrade whatever NBF files are present in the same directory. So, if you just want to do the Radio this time, remove the NK.NBF file and insert the RADIO_.NBF file in the folder and re-run the upgrade utility.

The Extended ROM is only the customizations and patches that the carrier and/or manufacturer place on top of the CE ROM after a hard reset. Note that while you may be upgrading the CE ROM to a later version, the old CAB files in the Extended ROM could be trying to patch down some fixes, such as the Bluetooth or Wireless LAN, or whatever. Best thing to do is unlock and check it out manually, but if you don't see any functionality issues, you'll be OK.
