Use gstreamer to record audio on android(with Qt5)

Question

Trying to record audio on android with gstreamer(enable permission of audio record already), I prefer gstreamer but not the java api because there are more functions need to be added in the future, like convert the audio to specific format(S16LE, channels=1, rate=16000 etc), encode as wav, separate video/audio and so on

The pipeline I am using are

openslessrc ! audioconvert ! wavenc ! fakesink

and

openslessrc ! audioconvert ! wavenc ! openslessink location=\"%1\"

But both of them give me error message

E IAudioFlinger: createRecord returned error -22
E AudioRecord: AudioFlinger could not create record track, status: -22
E libOpenSLES: android_audioRecorder_realize(0xcea58a00) error creating AudioRecord object; status -22
W libOpenSLES: Leaving Object::Realize (SL_RESULT_CONTENT_UNSUPPORTED)

I find out a solution, problem is I did not register appropriate plugins, correct plugins should be

GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(coreelements);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(coretracers);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(adder);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(audioconvert);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(audiomixer);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(audiorate);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(audioresample);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(audiotestsrc);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(typefindfunctions);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(videoconvert);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(videorate);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(videoscale);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(videotestsrc);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(volume);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(autodetect);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(videofilter);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(playback);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(audioparsers);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(auparse);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(multipart);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(wavenc);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(wavpack);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(wavparse);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(androidmedia);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(opengl);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(opensles);

GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(autoconvert);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(amrnb);
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE(amrwbdec);

They are not the miminum list of the plugins and I don't have times to optimize it yet, I do not need to compile a libgstreamer_android.so to make them work on my phone, but they still work.
