Pls recommend call log app - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running a CM7 based rom, and the call log does not fulfill my needs.
What I require is a call log that shows me how long I was on each call, as opposed just the time the call started.
Any ideas people?
EDIT: Also, bonus points for anyone that can recommend an app that allows you to set a countdown timer. And this needs to be simple to use, and retain the countdown time remaining for when I next make an international call (which is the whole reason I'm being so anal about timing).

Try some for your self. People have different opinions one stuff, so you may get something someone reccomends and you hate it

Tried a couple, they don't do what I want. Was hoping someone could point me in the direction of one that fits my needs.

Hi
I had a similar problem myself. I found GO Contacts. in his dialer it shows the time of the call.
and i love how often they make updates.
hope it helps

Yep, that's what I was going to recommend as well. Go Contacts/Dialer (same APK) is great!

Thanks guys

I was just looking for this, thank you so much!

I am sick of all these ROMs

I guess what I mean to say I am sick of all these problems, with both stock and cooked roms, I just want a phone that works smoothly.
What I wouldn't give for ANY ROM that is reliable.
I have tried ROM after ROM, and I still have not found even one that is truly reliable. The stock ROMs, or ones close to stock are maybe better but not OK.
I am so sick of the slow HTC messenging client (I have tried the fix to disable it, but that doesn't work)
Even the regular windows messenging freezes.
In fact the phone seems to have a lot of fun freezing up all the time. It usually unfreezes after a while, but why would I want a phone that I have to wait 5 minutes for before I can do anything?
All I want is 1 reliable ROM. It doesn't have to be lightning fast, just something that doesn't waste my time.
It would also be nice to have something with a bit of cool graphics in it too, but that is not important.
I have read online about a lot of people having the same problems. Why can't we seem to fix this? I have a lot of faith in Xda-developers, so I know this can be done.
try cooking your own then maybe you'll see how hard it is to make a reliable rom. :|
Yeah, I don't mean to give any offense to the chefs, as I thank them for their effort, but I think the problem is deeper than that.
I just want to know what I can do? Or maybe how can I help to discover the root cause of these problems?
you know...i dont think its the ROMs...
honestly i think it's because the stuff that's on the phone (whether its a stock ROM or a cooked one)
it NEEDS more memory...
thats what i think at least...
well how can one build a ROM that is snappy and reliable?
Its not the RAM, its the Qualcrap MSM7200 processor. Same processor for 3 generations. Thats why.
Check my signature & words of Gandhi Ji, you will understand why we fail. Our greed always outgrows our technological developments & what we are left with in the end is nothing but frustration.
To be specific have shipped ROM & attain the nirvana.
Kind of same feelings here. I have been using modified ROMS and now I realized that some of my text messages don't go through to people. This is kind of bad because I already fired one person from our company because there was misunderstanding cause she never received the message but I didn't believe her cause I got confirmation from the operator that she got the msg
and JUST now the phone just suddenly went blank and now it says that has to reset the device completely. I didn't even touch the phone I just noticed that it had lost the wallpaper suddenly and then tried to reinstall the wallpaper didn't work. Then reset and the phone didn't get on anymore
Luckily after some waiting the screen came and said I can reset the device. Now has to reinstall everything again. Fuuuuck. Would have other things to do than this..

have u tried my rom. i think i got them all covered
let me know here y it wouldn foot ur bill

Maybe we should start a quest to find that one ultimate ROM that makes this thing into a phone we can rely on.
I bought this phone because I use all of it's features heavily, I text and email and call and view documents, and surf the web and listen to music and watch videos and more constantly on this thing.
For it to be unreliable negates all the good functions it has.
How about we all work on finding/testing one ROM that is priority #1 Reliable?

lol...seems kind of a self defeating goal. Can there be anything such as the one perfect Rom when we each have our individual preferences and priorities? Also, we have to factor in the reality that the networks themselves are not reliable. So, if ATnT or Verizon drops calls and text messages, can we really say it is the Rom that is unreliable?

I was thinking of making one that can be the basis ROM from which all others are birthed. Or at least find what formula or tricks we could apply to make the ROMs better?
lawlz. Good Luck finding the 100% perfect rom.
If you look at each rom's thread, each new rom they release more likely has a new OS build. Then each new build has their own issues, either from previous version or new issue entirely.
IF the rom the chefs release is just plain unusable, they normally release a FIXED rom with the same build.
Known issues are just that, chefs normally don't fix them because they just can't. So hoping for a new build of the software might fix it.
Each of the roms' issues can be fixed with patches, there are general patches that can be found all over or a patch by the chef when they sometimes forget to fix an issue unique to their rom.
From what i've been noticing, no chefs has cooked up the same rom more than 5 times to fix some issues until it is 100% perfect. By the time they do that, there's a new build of the software and they'll be cooking that instead. Not only just the OS build, they'll also add/remove some programs, change programs to newer versions.
All of these combined will introduce new issues.
Then the cycle continues...
There's about 20 or more Rom selection out there that you can choose from. There's gotta be one that is close to your preferences.
A rom that is deemed 100% reliable to others may not be the same to you.

Perhaps then we should deem what is reliable. Firstly, 100%, I know, is too much to ask for, but I want as close as I can get.
So reliability to me means: I can use the phone as it was meant to be used.
This means: no freezing, no need to reset constantly, when someone calls me I can see the caller ID, etc
Simple and easy.
Now is that too much to ask for?

thnx for ur input though
Well there are Roms that are really reliable and very fast. I'm using the same custom ROM for a long time now... I never had to reset, no freezing. It just works.
It's more stable then stock even. Just search in the first 3 pages of the rom thread for the touch x roms.
So no it's not to much to ask. I think this thread should be closed because it's only about whining. Nothing constructive.
EDIT: and that's not the only ROM that is stable. And let me remind you that al cooks are doing it for fun and free willing. As end user you can't complain. You have no right. Asking and making requests is fine, but I'm getting sick of people saying nobody is listening or will respond on questions asked multiple times and awnsered multiple times. The same is for people screaming other people don't make them what they want while they have to knowledge about the subject at all.
This is not ment offensive in any way to anyone.

Well, as I said in the first few post, it is not the fault of the chefs, and I appreciate greatly all their efforts. I never complained about the chefs and their ROMS, it is the system itself. Perhaps I am asking Windows Mobile to be better.
It think it boils down to Microsoft building a system that is not up to par, then HTC trying to hack on their software which creates a system that is is inherently flawed.
I fully support and am grateful for all the custom ROMs out there. At least it gives us more interesting choices.

[Q] Change answer/decline call method?

I just switched back to sense using the Desire HD rom. but I'm remembering the biggest thing i hate about sense: swiping up and down on incoming calls. Obviously I keep my phone in my pocket and locked most of the time, so getting a call and pulling my phone from my pocket answers or declines the call for me depending on which way its sitting in there. why htc decided to use this, I dont know but it sucks.
My question would be: has someone figured out how to change this to the standard form of answering/rejecting calls? Even the galaxy s phones uses vanilla style but we get the crap up and down bar.

Deleting the lockscreen apk has no bearing on the phone apk.
To answer the OP, there is currently no way to disable the slide to answer function that I am aware of as this question has come up repeatedly in the dev forum. Deleting the phone apk causes some fairly significant issues, as you can imagine.

This is the reason I will never consider switching back to any Sense based rom. I have accidently answered/declined a call more times than I can remember. Thank god the rebooting issue was figured out for the AOSP roms.

I don't understand the workaround with No Lock. This application in not to unlock the device with a button?
I've installed Easy Answer Button. It doesn't work perfectly, and I have the same problem: the case answer or cancel randomly a incoming call
Thanks!
Same for me i need to change this method of answer call , i've tested Easy answer button , tedd droid tools but it's really what i want.
I want to slide on the left or on the right in order to answer or reject a call.
Someone can help me please ?
Edit: I've found what i want with cyanogen mod , it's perfect now .
That was my big problem with slide way answering a call too, but it's not anymore due to SimplyLock app that I found in market.
Hope it will help all guys who ran into the same problem.
I searched a few hours for a solution of this problem and finally found one i will try now.
The App I installed is called HD Caller ID and is free.
So for you, looking for a solution try this App. Maybe it´s good for your belongings.

Call Log...sucks. [Q]

I just recently ugraded to eb13, and now I notice that my texting history shows up in my call log...uhg! I send/rcv about 10-12k txts a month, so yu can imagine what my call log looks like with all those txt's! Is there a way to permanently remove "text history" from call log? I dont particularly want to use the searh filter every time I want to see a recent call nor do I really want a whole new dialer, as that's the only thing I don't like...

All custom ROMs floating around here had texts removed from the call log. You might try reflashing your ROM. Or copy logsprovider.apk out of any custom ROM with the same baseband as you (EC05) and push it to system/app.
Only if your rooted. K0nane made a stand alone fix to be flashed.
You can also hit the menu button and say sort by X,Y or Z but yeah its an annoying issue..

Oops it looks like the fix is already active. I guess I hadn't rechecked since I flashed SFR 1.2. It would be nice if there was an "All Calls" option in the View By menu instead of just a behind the scenes hack, but I'm happy with this. Thanks.

here is the fix if you are rooted. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853177&highlight=log. But you should really think about updating to at least EC05. Much better than EB13 in my opinion. EF02 has been great for me so far as well.

In-Call Recorder

I know there's been posts about this already and I've tried about 3-4 different apps already attempting to gain this functionality, so far with no success.
My old Tilt2 running Windows Mobile 6.5 had a BUILT-IN ability to record BOTH side of the phone call simply by pressing a menu button and then selecting "Record" DURING the call, which means I could choose exactly when I wanted to record, I didn't have to know in advance and I didn't have to record the whole call. I could go back to that same menu and "Stop Recording" just as easily and then the recording would show up in the Voice Recorder app file list. (they were saved as .amr files)
I have yet to find an application (free or paid) that provides this same functionality (and preferably the same ease of use and simple features) for the Android system, and I've been looking since I first got my Epic 4g back in May with Froyo 2.2 on it. I've got GB on it now, are we ever going to get an app or a build or rom that has this feature in it?
Thank you.

Background on this topic:
In previous threads on this topic in the Epic forums, it has been stated that it is against the law in some states to record a conversation without notice to & consent of the other party/parties.
That said, in all of those threads since the Epic's release--I've yet to see an app recommendation that panned out for those seeking such functionality.

My old PalmOS Treo had that feature, and it was perfect! Have been looking like you for that would work on the epic with no luck.
It was helpful when recieving important info while driving and not having to pull off to the side of the road and try to write things down with pen and paper!

I have only used my recorder on my Treo twice in 2 years. But the times I did use it was when someone gave me super long instructions on something I can't remember, so instead of saying to the caller, call me back when I at home in about an hour (which is an inconvenience to both of us) and when I am by my computer and have a pencil and paper, I simply continued the conversation. Then when I did get home I just wrote that information down at my convenience.
It's like have All Wheel Drive in a car, most of the time you don't need it, but it sure is nice when you have it.
Obviously you have never had a need for anything so mundane, as you are always in the perfect situation, so why the heck do you need a wireless phone? Stick to your corded phone, that's all you need, oh wait, you probably have a wireless phone. You must be one of those creepy guys too!

Not creepy, trying to be SAFE while driving and when someone is giving me instructions, or their address or phone number or when I'm on the phone with HP tech support and at the end of the call they want to give me a really long case number, there are a thousand legitimate reasons to need to have the ability to record portions or the entirety of a conversation while on the phone. When you have a 2hr commute each way to work and back, you spend a lot of time on the phone and frequently get information that needs to be written down, which I can't do while driving...not SAFELY at least.
Why was this so simple for the OLD Windows WM6.5 to accomplish yet the much more improved Android can't? Is it the OS or the phone manufacturer's that are preventing this feature???

I think it's a built in function in the MIUI ROM. I'm pretty sure on my last call I saw that feature...
Edit: yup, just checked and it's there. It's a stable ROM, you may want too check it out.

I could use this in several aspects my business dealings... I would live to be able to confirm verbal contracts over the phone, create action items during conference calls while in the car & to capture confirmation #'s when paying bills over the phone just to name a few.

Well, I'd say we've confirmed that there's definately a market for such a program on our device, if not others. I guess the trick is, and unfortunately I'm not a phone or android expert, I have to revert back to one of my original questions to see where to go with this. The developers here are pretty damn good and usually fill in whatever requests are out there for apps/mods to satisfy our requests. So is the reason why there isn't already a call recording program then the fault of the phone's themselves? I've heard that some people have had complete success with a program, but only with a specific model of phone. Others say that they get only microphone input...
Is the hardware truly limiting the ability or can we find a really nice and good dev who could get around any hardware limitations (at least on the Epic) and get this ability working finally?

Have you tried it? What kind of recording quality have you gotten?

S Voice? Well, it depends

Hey guys...
Just heard about S Voice. It sounds even better than siri. So I gave it a try on our device with CM9 alpha2.
So here it is:
The major function is OK, concerning listening and giving answers. Mount Everest's height can be found, weather OK, and even silly questions.
But the problem is here...
First, it is not quite responsive. Sometimes the button does not respond. However it can be worked around by re-launching it.
Second, the integration with local data does not work. Whenever I tell it to create a new task and/or calendar event, it crashes.
Third, it is not customizable. When you try to change the wake up phrase, it crashes. Worse still, you have to clear the data of the app to revive it.
Na.
Well, just asking if any developer is interested in making it work in our device?
