I am building an app to analyze voice quality.The user makes a voice recording which is stored on the device and then sent to a server for analysis.



I recently noticed that all audio recordings from Samsung Galaxy S6 (G920-F) are much noisier than other tested Android devices. I need to support the Galaxy S6 as I have many users on this phone.



I an attempt to fix the issue I tried testing MediaRecorder with different Audiosources such as: DEFAULT, MIC, VOICE_RECOGNITION and VOICE_COMMUNICATION. None of these options have a significant impact on noise.



I then tested using AudioRecorder with the same AudioSources listed above. No improvement.



Finally I tried adding a NoiseSuppressor to AudioRecorder which showed very little to no improvement.



I am setting up the AudioRecorder and NoiseSuppressor as follows:



public void startRecording(String fileNameIn) {
bufferSize = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize (
RECORDER_SAMPLERATE,
RECORDER_CHANNELS,
RECORDER_AUDIO_ENCODING);
aRecorder = new AudioRecord(
MediaRecorder.AudioSource.VOICE_RECOGNITION,
RECORDER_SAMPLERATE,
RECORDER_CHANNELS,
RECORDER_AUDIO_ENCODING,
bufferSize);

int audioSession = aRecorder.getAudioSessionId();
enableNoiseSuppressor(audioSession);


aRecorder.startRecording();
......


and



public void enableNoiseSuppressor(int microphoneId) 
if (NoiseSuppressor.isAvailable() && noiseSuppressor == null)
noiseSuppressor = NoiseSuppressor.create(microphoneId);
noiseSuppressor.setEnabled(true);
Log.i(TAG, "NoiseSuppressor enabled");
else
Log.e(TAG, "This device don't support NoiseSuppressor");




I also tested 3rd party recording apps on the Galaxy S6 and notice a high noise level on these recordings as well. This seems like a strange problem to have from a flagship (a few years back) phone. Are there any Android tricks or core concepts I am missing?



Looking for any suggestions or advice.
