Camera - bad sound quality - Iphone 4

I've no idea what's wrong with my Iphone 4 (iOS6, no jailbreak etc.) . When I used IOS 4, everything was fine but after update ios 5, and now ios 6....my sound in movies (recorded on iphone) is very weak. I've checked recording using Voice Recorder - microphone in my device is correct - sound is very clear with a high quality so the problem is no with iphone hardware! What should I do to repair that problem in camera mode?! It sounds noisy and blur. Help:/
[sorry for my english;]

I have the same issue.  The "crackling" gets so bad that I cannot hear anyting else.  This issue comes and goes, if i wait a few minutes usually the crackling will go away.   I don't think its an "area" issue, since it happens all over town.  Could it be an AT@T issue?  They don't know......"we will look into it"
I have restarted my Iphone several times.....thinking about restoring to factory settings and starting over again with upgrades.....

  • Is it possible to get a refund if i bought an album with extremely bad sound quality?

    As asked in the title, is it possible to get a refund if i bought an album with extremely bad sound quality?
    I am very unsatisfied with my latest purchase of the album "Never take ffriendship personal" by "Anberlin" ...
    I can find all the songs in much better quality, even on YouTube ...
    I bought two other albums by Anberlin at the same time, on which the sound quality is much much better and perfectly clear.
    is it possible to get some sort of refund ???

  • IPhones 3GS dead pixel and bad sound quality

    As i was going through some photos i notice a small white dot then looking closer to the screen i recently notice about 4 dead pixels and also when playing music through headphones the sound quality is not clear. I tested my iphone and a ipod touch with the same song and the results were the ipod touch had better sound than my phone. Can apple fix this?? Thanks

    As for dead pixels, Apple considers a small number as unavoidable with LCD displays and covers only a "high number" under the warranty. Apple would have to inspect the phone and determine if it's a covered defect. Make an appointment with an Apple Store Genius Bar.

  • E430 Fix bad sound quality with Win 7 + Dolby Advanced Audio

    Problem:  In Windows 7 x64, sound quality is tinny and sounds very badly DSPed when Dolby Advanced Audio is activated.  Even setting all effects off and EQ off the sound is bad simply because Dolby is/was turned on.  Going to Sound > Playback > Speakers > Properties > Enhancements, checking Disable All Enhancements and clicking Apply clears up the sound, but then the EQ won't have any effect.
    Solution:  If you have Win 7 x64, uninstall the Win 7 driver (h0a114ww.exe) and instead install the Windows 8 driver (h0ac10ww.exe).  Note that this is NOT the Win 8.1 driver - that won't install under Win 7.  The sound quality will be way better when you use Dobly EQ and effects.  So far I haven't had any stability problems.
    I thought my E430 had the worst sound card ever until I upgraded to Windows 8 and installed the new driver.  I have Windows 7 dual booted and found the sound quality in Win 7 terrible so I played around with it and found the above solution. 
    Solved!

    Hi!
    I have an iPod Touch 8gb.
    iOS 4.3.4
    Jailbroken...
    About 3 months ago, my headphone jack broke and was stuck in my iPod...
    I got it out a week ago..
    But the sound quality is really bad.
    Theres too much echo, not enough bass and too much distortion and gain...

    Based on other user's expereince, the headphone jack is damaged and requires replacement provided that the problem is only with headphones.

  • 6120c with 3.83 producing bad sound quality !

    hi i got a new 6120c few days back and currently i have 3.83 V firmware , i am experiencing very bad mp3 quality when ever i use supplied head set which is HS47, that sound quality is below average or may be my phone is producing just mono not sure about it ... is nokia planning to come up with any new firmware for 6120c???
    can we rollback its current firmware 3.83 to the orignal and older one which i think was 3.41 ????
    thanks

    Hi, did you use the Music Transfer application from Nokia PC Suite to transfer your mp3 files to the phone? If yes, probably your files were converted to .aac format to decrease file size and probably they lost some quality. This happened to me before. So I just used File Manager from Nokia PC Suite to copy my mp3 files from the PC to the phone's memory card as they are, without any conversion. This procedure solved the sound quality issues for me.

  • Windows Xp bad sound quality after installing itunes 10.5

    After installing itunes 10.5 to be able to get the ios5 update my itunes plays every file with really bad, distorted quality. I try other players even Quicktime works fine. What could be happening?

    Try to download, and install the latest Realtek HD Audio driver.
    Here is the download link:

    Select the second options (High Definition Audio Codecs (Software))
    And when you install this, i think everything will be good.

  • Live!cam Voice bad sound quality

    I bought a live cam voice two days ago and have had to get it exchanged already due to the appalling sound and picture quality. The original cam would not allow over 640x480 resolution for video, the picture was dark and muddy, the exposure control did not work at all and the sound was dreadful. The exchange cam works perfectly ie 280x960 resolution, picture bright and clear, exposure works fine however the sound is no better. I have to use my headset/microphone for anybody to hear me on skype and if I use it for video capture the sound is distant, dull and overlaid by a constant succession of clicks and pops.
    This is what people report hearing when I talk to them online. The camera is sold as having "unrivalled audio and video fidelity".Video yes (after exchange) audio definately not. I hope I will not have to get the second cam exchanged as if I do I will not be walking out with a Creative product. I have thoroughly checked my settings and carefully read the instructions and forum regarding this and have found no resolve. Anybody out there with the same issue?

    I bought the Live! Cam Voice a few days ago and have been suffering from sound problems too when recording. The sound distortion is almost electrical/mechanical in nature but disappears when the video auto-balances and becomes brighter ?!?! IT also disappeared when connected via a USB . hub, although the system then griped that the port wasn't sufficiently fast.
    I would consider swapping my main USB cable for the gold plated variety, to ensure no signals are encroaching on the port, but this may be overkill.
    These findings would suggest a software issue rather than hardware.
    Note. Do not install the voice driver update from Aug 2006, seems to make things noticeably worse!

  • Mid 2009 13" MBP iSight camera bad picture quality in photo booth

    My daughter's stock mid 2009 13" MBP 2.26 ghz intel core two duo has a problem with the isight camera. The isight camera is built in to the screen. The isight camera works some of the time flawlessly and other times it comes out real grainy and with small colored pixels all over the screen like colored static (about 20% to 30% of the photo booth screen is affected but the rest of the screen outside of the photo booth app is unaffected). She only uses it in photo booth but we've tried the iChat app and the same thing happens there too, once she couldn't get the MBP to connect to the isight camera (it just showed a black photo booth screen), so she closed the lid of her MBP and reopened it and it worked. All of the software and firmware is up to date and we've tried resetting the PRAM and the SMC, it didn't do anything to fix the problem. It seems like there's a wire loose in the computer from the screen to the computer base, only because I can move the screen back and forth and the picture quality changes, the amount of static on the picture will move, go away or get worse. I had the screen changed in early 2010 (January or February) (the MBP was about 5 or 6 months old then) at the apple store under warranty due to dirt under the screen's glass (manufacturing defect). The photo booth picture static problem comes and goes, but here lately it comes more than it goes. The screen in general is in good shape and doesn't have any detectable problems with it, it has a good picture and no dead pixels, the problem seems to be only isolated to the isight camera. Can some one help with this problem? How long of a warranty is given on the warranty repairs (like the screen change they did in early 2010)? If apple does a repair on it and finds a wire that has rubbed the insulation off of it on a hinge causing a short and the isight problem, as a result of a sloppy repair from the first warranty repair, will they cover it under warranty again even if it's been over a year since they changed the screen? Also how honest will apple be if they do find out it is a problem caused from the first screen replacement, will they own up to their mistake? If I don't agree with apple's repair decision, can I get a second opinion from an outside source, third party, and if it's diagnosis different than apple's and can be proven, can I still get apple to do and pay for the repairs and labor if it turns out to be their fault from the first warranty screen replacement?
    The reason why I'm asking is, I took my wife's white macbook in about a year ago for the famous cracked top cover replacement (under warranty) and when I got the computer back, the isight camera didn't work, so I gave it back, they took it apart a look at it and said there was nothing wrong with it and gave it back, then the screen wouldn't come on so after 4 hours at the Apple store they decided to send it to Austin, TX. for repairs (I'm in Ft. Worth TX.). Apple in Austin said it needed a new main board. They said the old one had water damage to it. We never had water anywhere near the computer, not even in the same room. It was working fine when we took it in, we took it in just to get the plastic top case, that cracks all of the time, replaced under warranty. And then they wanted us to pay for an $800 main board because some how while they were doing the top cover replacement it got water damaged. I argued with them and they finally gave me a one-time offer of them paying for half of the repair and labor or if I disagreed or left the store I would have to pay the whole amount if I chose to have the repairs done. So I ended up having to pay $467 for a year old macbook main board that was water damaged in their possession during their repairs. I like Apple and their products but I am worried about giving my daughter's MBP over to them for repairs because of this incident, it's an honesty issue with how honest they will be with what they find because they won't give back the old parts for analysis by a third party to verify their diagnosis.
    Thanks for any info and advice anyone can give.

    Hi,
    As a personal note I find long posts like this hard to read if they are not broken up in to paragraphs.
    As I say it is  a personal thing.
    I can give you some information about the camera and laptops over the past few years.
    Basically in early Laptops of the MacBook Pro and MacBook range the cable did tend to fray at the point where it passed through the hinge.  It did take a well used laptop that had the lid open and closed frequently to cause this.  (your 2009 model might just be in that group - I have no firm dates or models I am afraid)
    Later models have this rerouted so that this does not happen.
    However the cable has then tended to get pulled from the camera end and become loose.
    This On Line Self fix site has pages about some models  (The one I have linked to may not be yours)
    I have linked in to later pictures in the sequence but there are navigation points to work back to the start.
    Note:- they use pretty specifc specialest tools as well in these pics.
    Doing this would certail Void any Warranty you have left.
    From Posts mainly in the iChat and the iSight areas I have gathered that it seems common for Apple to replace the Screen as a whole rather than fiddle with getting solely at the camera.
    Apple has this article on Trouble Shooting an iSight
    Basically it says try several apps then try logging in on another Mac User account to see if it is App based or User based or in fact System wide.
    If System wide then resetting the SMC/PMU is the only suggested fix.  (Which I did read you had done)
    In addition to that I would add that testing should be done in different lighting conditions.
    Lighting in the evening or dark that is good enough to read buy is not always good enough for the camera or is not illuminating the right areas.
    Some people have reported that Starting the computer in Safe Mode (then Rebooting afterwards) seems to help.  (it clears out some caches and starts up with reduced extensions)
    As to actual Repairs and any Warranty that may still be in place I cannot say.
    I can say that when people post about problems with repairs a certain stores someone else will tend to post that their experience was different.
    You seem to report two different experiences with the two computers yourself.

  • Bad sound quality streaming audio via Airport Express

    I am streaming audio from iPhone to Apple Airport Express (Airplay). Via optical cable the signal goes to Cambridge DacMagic and then to Stereo Amplifier. Sound is not good, there's some kind of 'chattering'.
    When using AirFoil instead of Airplay sound is much better, but then gaps appear from time to time.
    Please tell me, what can be the reason for it? And how to solve?
    Thanks in advance.

    Mr. Tessarex,
    I use the Airport Exreme as router and Airport Express (2011, direct plug-in model)
    Some facts I learned from the Airport-app on my iPhone:
    Wireless clients from Airport Extreme:
    iPhone 150Mb/s (802.11 a/n) connection: excellent
    Acer laptop 144Mb/s (802.11 b/g/n) connection: excellent
    The Airport Express:
    240Mb/s (802.11 a/n) connection: good
    I bought the song "Love Me Like You Do" (Ellie Goulding) via iTunes.
    As you adviced me I tried to play it via iTunes, and streamed it from iPhone to Airport Express.
    Especially listening to the bombastic part of the song (from 3:14). Sound was tolerable.
    Playing the song from iPhone via Spotify: sound is awfull, totally overloaded.
    Playing the song from laptop via Spotify (Airfoil): sound is good.
    Playing the song from laptop via iTunes (Airplay): sound is good.
    The song never plays 'Excellent' in any way. I Think the song was recorded 'over the top'.
    Even when you listen to it via headphone, it sounds very messy, "on the edge...".
    I am happy that most songs sound good. So far playing Spotify via laptop and Airfoil gives the best results.
    According to the figures from the Airport-app, it seems I will never get optimal bitrate with my current system.
    As amplifier I use the Luxman L505u, usually connected tot Airport Express via Cambridge Dacmagic,
    but during testing via normal analog cable (without Dacmagic). So far I think the Dagmagic is not the problem.
    What do you think, after reading my story?
    Thanks in advance
    Peter

  • Bad sound quality (less surround) with Flash players past the 10.3 version

    Some months ago I tested one of the 11.X versions and had the same problem. Aaaand now I tested the latest 11.8 version - still the same problem.
    I have PERFECT audio with 10.3 and HTML5. Sounds exactly as it should.
    But with a later version of the Flash player, there's somehow "less" surround to the audio on videos and the volume is louder. This has nothing to do with sound stutter or any of that sort. It's all about the fact that the quality is just plain worse. It's like the sound is... um... Mono? When it should be stereo/surround. Again, it's perfect with 10.3 and HTML5.
    Sooo... any ideas? I tested the latest version again after all those months because I kinda expected this problem to be gone. But no, it's still there.
    I use Firefox by the way.
    Edit: Perhaps it's after 11.2 version that this problem occurs. Figured it might be after reading another thread about something similar. Not sure though.

    Hai
    Try to Install Windows Xp ,its a Good Version of OS ,Compared to any latest Version

    Pulseaudio 4.0
    Audacity 2.0.3 (official package from Arch)
    But, when I record with Audacity, playback (before exporting), is shoddy.  I noticed my dB levels lower than normal when monitoring my audio/recording in Audacity.  Before I remember I had to even LOWER the default dB level of recording in pavucontrol/sound center.  I've done this many times on Arch, and I have had no new hardware.  I have tried changing the output/input device on the main screen in Audacity several times to no effect.  I never had to before.  Now, on Arch I have always had to set the inital dB recording level via sound prefs, not via Audacity as the "Input Volume" slider on Audacity was always grayed out, but never an issue before.
    If you need additional information, please let me know.

    first of all, if your pulseaudio setup is working for you there's no reason to break it really..
    historically, the reason for using sound servers like pulseaudio over alsa, is that some sound cards don't support hardware mixing with alsa, which means you coudn't play audio from eg. audacious and youtube at the same time. Nowadays alsa has software mixing support (via dmix plugin if I'm not mistaken) so Its not usually an issue any more.
    I have very limited experience with pulseaudio, and can't be sure of the differences. Generally I believe alsa can do most of the stuff pulseaudio can, but if you've ever looked at configuring alsa, you might know it could be a real pita especially in more advanced setups. From my limited experience with pulseaudio, I think it could be easier to set up on some cases and often just works out of the box. I could also have some audio over network capabilities that alsa might lack, but that again is just my assumption.
    also I'm pretty sure pulseaudio is required for some desktop environments like gnome.
    just use whatever method works for you
    I remember having that EXACT issue back in ~04-06.  That was the most annoying thing, and the reason why I started to use pulse back then.  Oh I know the pitfalls of alsa, which is why I understand pulse co-existing on Arch's cinnamon package setup.  Cool, well thanks for the advice!

  • Stooges CD bad sound quality

    I imported my "The Stooges" CD through an external disk drive, this was not the remastered one but sounds fine in a CD player. When i play it through itunes the sound qaulity is awful and really distorted. Please fix this problem

    You are NOT addressing Apple here. This is a user to user forum. We are all itunes users likel you and can "fix" nothing.
    Just re-import it.

  • Sound quality decline in calls

    After upgrading to 3.0 (in Italy, Vodafone) I'm experiencing a dramatic decline in sound quality during calls. While the signal icon is always full, the sound is "metal" and intermittent and my callers report very bad sound quality and difficult to understand words.
    Has somebody the same experience?
    Stefano

    I have same issue. My new iPhone 3G S (US/ATT) sound quality on phone call is very poor. Lots of hissing noise, sometimes even it feels as though there is a small waterfall in the background. Deeply disappointed with this issue right now and in Iphone 3G s !

  • Bad Sound quanlity

    Does the Satellite L855 series have bad sound quality or this is just me compairing it to the HP Pavilion DV6?

    IMO, the decision to upgrade your existing stereo system should not be determined by this unless the only time you use your stereo system is to play iTunes music wirelessly.
    When playing music wirelessly, is your ibook a good distance from the AE Base Station and/or do you have a strong signal from the Base Station?
    Since they aren't very expensive, you might try purchasing a different cable - preferably a Monster cable.
    I'm not sure where else the problem lies.
