I connected usb handsfree to my android device. I need to switch sound input between handfree and built-in microphone. In some devices (like mk802 hdmi-tv-console) threre is system menu where sound input and output could be changed.
I searching a way to change input and ouput from console or from code.
I'm not aware of any official way of doing what you want. The rationale being something like: if you didn't want to use the handsfree you wouldn't have plugged it in in the first place.
There are a few things you could try, but they're not guaranteed to work across all devices and Android versions.For playback you could try this to get the audio routed to the loudspeaker instead of the USB accessory:
Class audioSystemClass = Class.forName("android.media.AudioSystem");
Method setForceUse = audioSystemClass.getMethod("setForceUse", int.class, int.class);
// First 1 == FOR_MEDIA, second 1 == FORCE_SPEAKER. To go back to the default
// behavior, use FORCE_NONE (0).
setForceUse.invoke(null, 1, 1);
And for recording you could try using the VOICE_CALL or CAMCORDER AudioSource instead of MIC or DEFAULT.

I have created a WebRTC session from one device to another, the device should be able to control the volume for music stream, but WebRTC is originally designed to stream voice_call so is using the voice_call channel and using the call volume control is not good behavior for non-call app.
I tried to change STREAM_VOICE_CALL to STREAM_MUSIC in WebRTC source WebRtcAudioTrack to use the stream music volume but the only change was android is detecting it as music but volume change with call volume.
I found the solution to this. You have to change the opensls player for this to happen
change this from here
// corresponds to android.media.AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL.
SLint32 stream_type = SL_ANDROID_STREAM_VOICE;
RETURN_ON_ERROR(
(*player_config)
->SetConfiguration(player_config, SL_ANDROID_KEY_STREAM_TYPE,
&stream_type, sizeof(SLint32)),
false);
to this
// corresponds to android.media.AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC.
SLint32 stream_type = SL_ANDROID_STREAM_MEDIA;
RETURN_ON_ERROR(
(*player_config)
->SetConfiguration(player_config, SL_ANDROID_KEY_STREAM_TYPE,
&stream_type, sizeof(SLint32)),
false);
do this here too
So I am trying to use some code found here on Stack Overflow in order to route audio from the Headset to the Speakers.
What I am currently doing is:
AudioManager am = (AudioManager)context.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
am.setMode(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
am.setSpeakerphoneOn(true);
sleep(15000);
What happens is that the audio is routed during the "sleep", however it gets back to the headset after the 15 seconds.
If I perform this without the sleep, the sound will go to the speaker and back to the headset very quickly.
After this call, my program dies. I would like that this would persist in the system, as the app Headset Toggle does
I could not discover why my method wasn't working, but I found a workaround for it.
What I am doing at the moment is:
Class audioSystemClass = Class.forName("android.media.AudioSystem");
Method setForceUse = audioSystemClass.getMethod("setForceUse", int.class, int.class);
// First 1 == FOR_MEDIA, second 1 == FORCE_SPEAKER. To go back to the default
// behavior, use FORCE_NONE (0).
setForceUse.invoke(null, 1, 1);
Thanks to Michael from this post.
I'm playing an audio clip using OpenSL ES. In my code I have
audioManager.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_CALL);
audioManager.setSpeakerphoneOn(true);
to force audio through the speaker while the headset is plugged in. It works fine, but I can't control the volume. Pressing the volume buttons while the clip is playing makes the volume seekbar appear and move, but the volume doesn't change.
Calling setVolumeControlStream(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL) or setVolumeControlStream(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC) before playing doesn't seem to help.
Changing any of the volumes outside of my app (e.g. in the Android settings) doesn't affect the playing volume. Volume control works well on both headset and speaker when no routing is applied.
I've also tried routing the audio to the speaker using this code I found in another answer
Class audioSystemClass = Class.forName("android.media.AudioSystem");
Method setForceUse = audioSystemClass.getMethod("setForceUse", int.class, int.class);
// First 1 == FOR_MEDIA, second 1 == FORCE_SPEAKER. To go back to the default
// behavior, use FORCE_NONE (0).
setForceUse.invoke(null, 1, 1);
but it doesn't work on my Android 4.3 Nexus 4. I need the most compatible way to to that anyway.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Here is a couple ideas:
MODE_IN_CALL sets all sorts of priority/policy on STREAM_VOICE_CALL. During this time, other STREAM may loose volume control focus. See if your audio clip is played over STREAM_VOICE_CALL.
MODE_IN_COMMUNICATION (for VoIP) may be a better fit for you. MODE_IN_CALL is for cellular call and can degrade your audio quality.
You may want to try grab audio focus and see if that helps. http://developer.android.com/training/managing-audio/audio-focus.html
I'd like to use the speaker for audio output while simultaneously using the headphone jack for a different audio output/input. Is this possible?
It's possible to do on some devices (I've verified that it works on a Sony XPeria P), but I don't think you can count on it to work on all devices.
What you'd do is force MUSIC streams to route to the loudspeaker:
Class audioSystemClass = Class.forName("android.media.AudioSystem");
Method setForceUse = audioSystemClass.getMethod("setForceUse", int.class, int.class);
// First 1 == FOR_MEDIA, second 1 == FORCE_SPEAKER. To go back to the default
// behavior, use FORCE_NONE (0).
setForceUse.invoke(null, 1, 1);
Then you use the MUSIC stream for anything you want routed to the loudspeaker, and the VOICE_CALL stream for anything you want routed to the headset/headphones.

I'm at a lost. I want to be able to adjust the speak volume. Whatever I do, I can't increase its volume. How do I make it as loud as that found in the Android settings (as below)?
System Settings -> Voice input and output -> Text-to-Speech settings -> Listen to an example
My code at this moment is:
AudioManager mAudioManager = (AudioManager)getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
mAudioManager.setSpeakerphoneOn(true);
int loudmax = mAudioManager.getStreamMaxVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_NOTIFICATION);
mAudioManager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_NOTIFICATION,loudmax, AudioManager.FLAG_PLAY_SOUND);
mTts.speak(name,TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);
Try using AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC when calling the setStreamVolume(...) method. The example speech is affected by the media volume if I adjust the volume of music playback on my phone so I guess STREAM_MUSIC is what you need.
EDIT: This code works perfectly for me...
AudioManager am = (AudioManager)getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
int amStreamMusicMaxVol = am.getStreamMaxVolume(am.STREAM_MUSIC);
am.setStreamVolume(am.STREAM_MUSIC, amStreamMusicMaxVol, 0);
tts.speak("Hello", TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);
The max volume for STREAM_MUSIC on my phone is 15 and I've even tested this by replacing amStreamMusicMaxVol in my call to am.setStreamVolume(...) above with the values 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and the volume of the speech is correctly set.
In your code you are changing the volume of notifications. Is the volume of TTS played at the same volume level as notifications? I suspect it isn't and it probably played at either STREAM_SYSTEM or STREAM_MUSIC Try changing the stream type to one of these:
STREAM_VOICE_CALL, STREAM_SYSTEM, STREAM_RING, STREAM_MUSIC or STREAM_ALARM
