I really hope it doesn't route all sound while the panel is loaded...

Hi,
tried it a couple of minutes ago and it works pretty well! Sound comes from the earpiece but only during the call. Ringing etc comes from the speaker... nice panel!

I think it's the "old/first" Skype panel
It's good with the wired headset, but when you want to call with Speaker, the sound comes out the speaker (aside the phone) and the volume is quite low (even the soundsettings are maximized)
Also if you plug out the headset during a call, the phone sees the headset is unplugged, but Skype will keep (your call) in headset mode

i was using skype earlier to make a call to a mobile phone...it connected...but i notice that i was going to be charged by the minute...how does skype bill me when i didn't give them my credit card info...do they bill the other person?

I don't think they'll charge the other person.
But I've noticed, when I checked my profile on Skype Panel, it says I got 1 Call Credit.
I presume Skype gives 1 free call

as i described the sound comes from the speaker where you got your ear, like a normal phone call over gsm, not from the speaker from the side. also the volume is sufficent in my opinion.

Try installing Skype first, then install the panel. That is what I did on itje's WM6.5 ROM and it works fine.

I'm having problems
1) I had Skype 2.5 on my Xperia (Stock R2A UK generic with R3A panel manager and ActiveX).
2) Downloaded and installed the panel. When I run the panel, Skype starts but the panel itself is empty, I can only see the background (blue back and white image at the bottom with letters). I can't see any contacts. But I can see them all in Skype application window. I can only see the panel background when I select Today from Start menu.
3) I uninstalled Skype and Skype panel, reset.
4) Downloaded latest Skype 2.5 from Skype and installed it, reset as asked.
5) Installed Skype panel, reset
6) Nothing changed:
When I open Skype panel the application starts (normally, like I was on any panel, contacts are displayed in the app). I can only see the panel backgroud when I open Start menu and select Today (then I can see the blue and white background without any contacts)
What else can I do to see the contacts on the Skype panel (not just in the application window)?

Press OK when in the Skype bit and this will return you to the blue and white (letters) panel bit.

OK brings me to the panel bit but no contacts are displayed on it - just the blue and white. Doesn't mather even if in the settings I choose "Contacts" > "All" or "Online now". When I press the left soft key "Skype" it opens skype and shows me my contacts, some online and some offline. Then pressing "OK" I get to the panel, but still it's empty.
EDIT: The sound comes from the phone speaker, not the loudspeaker at the bottom corner.

Does the sound come out from the speaker then ?

I think the reason why this panel version is not compatible with itje 5.06 because if u look at the device information identity tab. It show the model number to be Touch D and not X1. Now if there is a way to change that back to X1, you would be able to install it. Anyone know how to change it?

well if you read the touch it thread, youd see several posts telling you how to change the device ID..

Sorry if I didnt read every single reply on that thread, god knows how many there are, i was just trying to help out another member.

If U want ballons in skypepanel U need a hardrestet and DON'T install skype from www.skype.com - ONLY flash plugin /first/ and skypepanel from your X1 /Start/Internet Explorer/Panels/.

Ok. The balloons are not worth a hard reset for me. So I'm going to try:
1) Uninstall Skype panel
2) Uninstall Skype app
3) Soft reset
4) Install Skype panel
Let's see...
EDIT:
Not my lucky day. Didn't work just like that. Still no balloons.
Somebody knows what folders or registry keys I have to reset or delete to get the same effect as with hard reset?

Thank you , you are right changing the device id helps, I found howto on the Roms thread , as you say there are more than 200 replays and it is just not easy to see every thing!
changing stuffs in registry and a file called modell.txt in windows helped but no ballons for me , Had skype installed before the panel.
-------------edit
Did a hardreset and installed my apps again then just skype panel , no beta, there are still no balloons!

I totally agree
It works well if you put the speakers on during the call.
I know this way everybody in the room will hear the convo, but.. it works.
LOL.
Audio notes touch just not good enough...
It doesnt record the one you are talking with (you can vagely hear the other person, as the microphone picks up some of the sound from the personal loudspeaker).
I would like to record all of my calls (crispy clear sound from both parts), and I cant run around with the back side speaker on.
Anny suggestions?
Another ROM update or maybe another program?
thnx..

Alternative Phone call recording

During a phone call the action you need to do to record the audio will be to temporarily remove the pennino.Non everyone may be aware that in this way activates the "NOTES" WM. Another way may be to click on the button pad "NOTE" '.
When the 'known' to the screen you will see lines with 'caller', 'society', 'telephone num', 'Notes' ...
Now you click on 'Menu' at the bottom right and in the drop-down menu click on the first page or 'Show registration bar ...'
A bar with a record rec button in red, then stop, play to finish with the volume button (last on the right). While calling and then click on the red rec button and start recording the phone call!
When you want then simply click the stop button to end recording x! To appreciate the whole do not have to do other than click on simbolino sound that you will have to close on the note "Note." To go instead to retrieve your records do not have to let go on the program ke NOTE, in this program. From there you can also set the target memory on which the audio file will be recorded (from Menu> Options> Save in).
Too much work dude. Just intall Vito Audio Notes Touch, and check "Calls Autorecord" option in the setting.
Once done, just use your phone the normal work with no added step at all. It will record without you realising it, and automatically label the came of the other person called, data and time of call.
No tweaks involved. Both sides of the conversation are clear, although the other side is slightly softer. Need not turn on the speaker.

Great!Thank you!
however, this way and free, as it is included in wm6!
Vito Audio Notes Touch documentation says you must have it om speakerphone to get both sides.... this isnt true?

Please note that this works (and pls correct me if I'm wrong) on 1.19 ROMs and their derivatives only. Recordings with 1.14 ROMs (like mine..) suffer from a terrible quality issue from the other side of the call.
I don't want to upgrade yet, because this is the only issue that bothers me and I don't want to take any risks.

Is there a volume indicator or control on music tab?

I can't find any independent volume control on the TF3D music tab
Does it have one? Thanks

I don't think so...well I don't own a Touch Pro2 but I've used Touch Flo3D before...
This is one of the reasons why I hesitate from getting a Touch Flo 3D phone. I feel that the MP3 player is incomplete.
Well, why not using the VolumeDown/Up keys on the left side? It's the same like an application-integrated volume control ...!

I have a question about that.
I was in the library today, and as such, my mobile needs to be on 'vibrate' or 'silent', but I also want to listen to music at the same time.
The only way I could listen to music was to turn the volume up, and thus the phone wasn't on vibrate anymore, which meant when I got SMS's and phone calls, the phone went off blaring =="
Any ideas?
In the volume screen you have two settings System and Ring, set the ring to silent and leave the System alone
That works only when you disable the non-stereo handsfree function in the bt profile of the headset. At least that's what happened with my old Elf. Haven't tried it on my Rhodium yet, but know for sure that with both profiles selected it will ring anyway.

If you need the separated Volume controls for system and ring, search for VolumeControl 1.x in the HD section! This might work on our Rhodiums as well!

Req: simple call recorder for SGSII

Hi all,
I almost put 2-3 days to investigate Apps for call recording on my SGSII. I installed many Apps on it, however, none of them seems working.
Bottom line is apparently, there is hardware limitation in Android which prevents accessing the incoming voice. and most of the programs work when voice is coming from the speaker.
This seems ridiculous! I mean, come on! I had Nokia 5 years ago and had nice Apps working perfectly for call recording with crystal clear quality.
If there is not such an App and if Android world is unable to perform such an easy task, I will definitely, switch back to Nokia.
Please let me know if you know any WORKING program with good quality without putting the phone on speaker.
Thanks for your time.

Their own website states that the speaker phone must be turned on. So I will keep looking Phone call recording
To record phone calls, start recording, and put the speaker on during the call. Please beware that this doesn't work on all devices.
To record incoming calls, uncheck Pause on incall in the advanced settings, start recording, wait for a call, and put the speaker on. Warning: this may cause certain phones to crash when the incoming call arrives." Need something for a sgh-t989
there are 2 fine solutions mate, that already works for me on stock rom (root required) or cm7:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.killermobile.totalrecall.s2.market
or
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder (pointed by nilsido, too)
both works wonderful.

Volume reduces significantly if video calls interrupted by cell phone calls

Hi Guys,
I have a peculiar problem. I run Android version 10 on One Plus 7T Version 10.3.2.HD65AA, Model HD1901
I do a lot of video calls on my job . When I am on a video call on a loud speaker and it is interrupted by cell phone call, even if i accept or reject the cell phone call, my loudspeaker volume significantly reduces to be inaudible levels .The volume is maximum , but its inaudible. I have to disconnect the video call and restart the phone to be able to converse on loud speaker. This is very irritating and affecting my job. I have tried to search a lot and have not found any effective answer . This happens even with headphones .
I notice this typically on whatsapp video call and browser based video calls like doxy.me. With zoom and google meet, i am logged out if i accept the cell phone call, so i have to rejoin the meetings and the sound level is audible.
I would really appreciate any piece of advice on solving this issue as its interfering with my job, besides being a nuisance.
PS : I have had to factory reset my phone twice recently for other reasons as below and it still has not solved this issue .
1. I had missing icons in my top shelf in contact app ( plus sign , delete button , hamburger bottom) and file app (hamburger sign , find button and delete bin) after one particular update
2. Had notification problems which again needed factory reset
Thank you all in advance

BUG: Phone speakers won't work after video calling
Device: Oneplus 7T on 10.0.9HD65AA
How to reproduce:
1. Video call using facebook messenger or similar app
2. Play music or video thru speakers, they won't work
3. Restart phone, speaker will work again
*note: there is a faint sound coming from the earpiece, like when you're calling someone
Already reported this to OnePlus. Very frustrating bug.

My problem could be this bug that u reported. Did they reply back to you?
I just had this happen when using MS Teams on a conference call. I had speakerphone enabled, and a call came in. I declined the call, but the Teams call switched to the earpiece (which was of lower volume). To fix, I just switched from Speaker, to Device and then back to Speaker. This happens on AOSP (on my OnePlus 5T) as well.
I don't think it's an Oxygen problem, but it's something that can likely be fixed if they know about it.

After installing AOSP on the 7T, this continues to happen with Microsoft Teams meetings when I have speaker enabled, receive a phone call and decline it, and it switches automatically to earpiece.
The solution of switching to earpiece in Teams and then back to speaker fixes it. All without disconnecting from the meeting.

So this did work for me. Today when the volume reduced after a phone call during my zoom meeting, I plugged in my ear phones and then removed them after 2 min, the volume was back to full and audible.
Thanks a lot for this tip. It's a life saver for me. Really appreciate it.

You're welcome. It's more of a workaround because it seems audio routing is just wonky in Android. I'm not sure if iOS does this but I can test that later with wife's phone.

Yep! Same here, MS Teams meeting, BT headset, dropped incoming call to voicemail and meeting volume became inaudible, so I had to drop and reconnect. Very inconvenient, especially because I was the meeting's host. I will try to switch audio device in Teams next time, kudos for that!
