[Q] call recorder application galaxy nexus (no root) - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello,
I work as a secretary and in one day I have more than 50 calls it is so hard to remember al info. That is why my favourite applications is Call recorder, (and in our country it is legal -if they are informed)
this is my first android telephone. My previous was nokia n95 8gb .symbian s60 - and there it worked really good - totall recall!
I tried more than 5 applications from android market, but looks like nothing work on galaxy nexus. (just my voice is recorded, other party (other friend) is not recorded)
I am so sad, because this is first time I have android phone and this is only application that I really need and it is not working
Is there any possible way to have this application to record all calls (from me and another side) , if I do not want to root my ROM?
or I really have to root this phone? will there developers make an app that will work (i can wait a little)
thanks a lot thanks a lot in advanced.
This is my first post and I really need some advaces (more than 3 days I aksing all around but no one can answer me...)

I think you will be disappointed as I too have been looking for an app like this. I couldn't care less about it being legal etc. however this is likely the only reply you will get thats on topic as people love to quote the law whilst using their pirated copies of windows lol
Anyway I found AndroRec Call Recorder but it only records the other party if you use the speaker phone or max call volume (in which case they are fairly quiet)
If you find a working one be sure to report back!

i am still looking for the solution too!
anyone help?

Contact Groups & Different Ringtones

Hi All!
I just got my BA (SX 66 - I would include all that other info if I knew where to find it!) - actually hubby and I got ours together and it is definitely an upgrade from my regular Samsung cell and paper calendar!!! We are loving this machine but am still baffled as to why this thing costs over $500 and we can't get different ringtones for different contacts like we could in the $50 Samsung phone? Are my expectations too high?? I know it does just about everything else short of cooking or paying for dinner but this was a really important function for me. Not to mention one ringtone will drive me insane after a few days and I am too lazy to keep uploading different ringtones.
Has anyone found a way around this? A third party application/program that can help me?
I just like having the capability to recognize by sound whether my mother, boss, or one of the sites I am monitoring is calling - not to mention the "Death March" music I used to play to warn me against people who I shouldn't even bother to look at the caller ID because I am not going to pick it up no matter what!!
...ooppss sorry for rambling....newbie!
mortring
you check out this topic...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20711
the application is called mortring... u can have personalized ringtones and sms tones for your user and groups... and the best thing about this application is it's free...
Doesn't your BA have Photo Contacts (Start>Programs>Photo Contacts)? It should allow you to set individual ringtones and photos.

Audio Editor

I work with a bunch or radio reporters and an looking for an audio recorder and editor to put on a windows mobile phone. I use the touch HD and can test it on that. I have searched the forums for this but could not find anything. I have found a lot of apps for the iPhone to do this but dont want to go down that road.
Jeff
there is a voice recorder on the touch hd (quality leaves a lot to be desired though).
as for editor, i believe there was an editor made for the new omnia but i dont know if that has been sucessfully ported yet
We have tried it and with an external mic it works ok. But what we want to do is be able to record interviews and sound bites, Edit them into a story and be able to send them off either via MMS or email to our network center. I have found an app for the iPhone that does this called poddio but like I said before I dont want to have to go out abd buy a bunch of iPhones to do this. We are wanting to use phones to do this because in Afghanistan and Pakistan reporters have to keep on the down low at avaoid being harassed or worse.
Thanks for the help and I am hoping to find a way to keep these guys safe and still get the news out.

[C#]My phone call recorder - some hints needed

Hi.
For my studies I'm expected to develope application which would be able to record phone calls (voice both from mic and speaker). App is for HTC Touch Pro and maybe for Samsung Omnia (but mainly for HTC) and it should be written in C#.
I wrote in my life few CF apps so I know mobile programming topic and I'm not asking for writing application for me. I would like to ask developers who know this topic about few things:
Is it possible to capture voice from mic and speakers while using only CF .NET 3.5 without any specific APIs? Or some additional (phone specific?) APIs are needed? If it is not a problem, can I get few lines of code with description how to do it?
I read few threads here and on other sites but nowhere I can find any information about developing these kind of apps - only posts about which commercial app works on which phone and which is not. So I hope that someone in this development section can help me with this.
I will appreciate any help
Cheers.
No-one? Really?
There are unmanaged APIs which can be used in managed apps by using P/Invoke. Take a look at the 'Wave In' part.
Not sure if this can be easily used for phone call recording.

Hi.
Thank you for reply. Sample from your link records and plays sounds pretty well, but during phonecall it is completely lost and cannot even save wave properly (and I assume that it is taking control of microphone, because on second phone my voice doesn't exists :/).
I have tried few tricks using openNETCF too, but it also has problems with recording during the phonecall.
Does anyone have any more idea? There are a lot of phonecall recorders which work so somebody must have done this before...

App/Game Ideas please :)

Hello All
I am plannng on making my own set if apps and games for windows mobile. Problem is, I dont know what to make! I own a HTC Touch HD, which is why I'm psotin this here - sorry if its posted in the wrong place!
I really want windows mobile to catch up with iPhone so we have all the mint gadgets and apps too. If anyone has any ideas then please reply to this thread and I will try my best to make the app for you.
I don't ask for any money, but I will be setting up a donation account sometime soon - probaly when the first app goes live.
Thanks

i personally would like a decent smooth (few windows mobile games have what i call a playable framerate) doodle jump like game. theres one going around recently called boing (i think) but its largely unfinished.
How about a speed camera application.
One similar to "CAMERAWARE" would be good, search google for CAMARAWARE.
Please i would like to see Vexed game remake on ppc with beter animation and so on...
How about a car valuation app, that be cool for the right ppl
You could make me a World of Minecraft Client for WinMo
AFAIK there isnt one and I'm hopelessly addicted to that game
edit: its java based so I could quite likely be wrong about there not already being one for winmo
How about making an application to test the polarity of a speaker. I have the on phase off phase test tone but need a software to tell it apart.
Thank you all for your ideas - much appreciated.
I'm not too sure yet which one I will be working on first - I will look through them this evening and make my mind up
Keep them coming!
Dude, I will drink a beer in your name if you make me a probably simple app./fix. I would love if you could somehow get the Audio Booster to work without putting a 3,5 jack in the phone. I use a bluetooth headset and i would love to run the Audio Booster over bluetooth.. music would sound so much better!! can you make this happen
t-pain/autotune app would be funny like iphone has
please make a last.fm client/programme.... I really miss this and it's not quite as good streaming it through skyfire
game wise - i'd love to see a bombjack game made with proper controls for WVGA - have a look at bombjack on MAME
iphone type app.... how about the magnifer glass app using the phones camera? (always did like that one)
Tower defense games are a lot of fun.
I'd also love to see an app that would allow me to easily create and manage playlists for music player apps like Slide2Play or Windows Media. Although if this already exists someone please let me know!
Once again thank you everyone, I will try my absoulute best to complete all these apps/games for you at sometime.
It won't be long now before I pick a app and build it - PROMISE!

Eye catch apps
Hello Dude so i have alot of Ideas but i can`t do them so here is what APPS/GAMES we need for FUN and etc.​
1st. I already saw APP called BigBrother so what doing this application is to track your friends by the GSM Number and for that reason use the GPS google Maps for example BUT here is the funny thing that of course the program can`t track your friends by the number but can track you.. so when you are in a coffe with friends you can say hey i always know where are you, because i can track you by your number.. then they of course will say its not posible.. OK show them.. Just open the APP and simple write the Number of your friend that don`t believe you after few seconds the Exact Location will be displayed WOW.. the APP show the location of your device, but your friends don`t have from where to know this.. and for example when they are close to you i mean you are with the in the same place ... its looking like you really can track them anytime anywhere..
If app like this is made will be awesome, just to have a Nice finger friendly Interface and to look Serious like a Serious TRacking SPY Application.
2nd We need program who work with Fake Finger Prints... so i will give you example of one app you can create whatever you want.. using the methoud of visual apperiance..
Let we have something like Lock Screen with Finger Print Scaner.. of course this is not posible for real but who know this So for example your screen is locked.. when you wake up the device in the Center of your Screen will appear a square or some kind of button in that place you need to put your finger so this will have a delay of few seconds for example 3 seconds delay, because need to look like your finger get scaned ..
After you put your finger in this place the app will react on touch and will be writen SCANING PLEASE WAIT... after 3 seconds will appear a on the same place where was writen this SCANIN Stuff will apear APROVED or something like this and will appear a real Finger Print so nobody will know that this is not your real finger print..
With FInger Print Scaners can be done alot of super good visual apps to catch eyes and your friends or some iPhone fans to be really crazy with that.. this was just example of course.
3rd the Last but maybe the Best is Morphing the Voice in call, there already have app that can Morph your voice but you just can record a Morphed Voice and is very buggy for what im talking is a Morphing Your voice in real Time during Phone CALL, this will be extremaly good Software and thousend of peoples will NEED IT.
Imagine if you can call someone and to Morph your voice like you are Older, younger or Even Women LOL... this is really a Serious Software i know that can be made with sure just nobody take it serious to do something like this. Like i say now already have Soft Like this for WindowsMobile but its a BAD and its not integrated with the Phone Calls so you just can Morph your Voice for FUN not in a CALL and also there are just few samples to choice like Robot voice etc witch are bad so.. the Morphing voice is all from the Dicibels and etc if we have Soft like this intergrated to work in CALL and you can add into the Menu option like Equalizer with this methood everyone can do whatever settings he like and to make unique Morphed Voice from a Yuonger Girl/Guy to a Older almost everything.
The APP must to beLight not so visual good aperience need to work Faster and Smooth this is something that we really NEED and totaly will break all Other Devices and Apps.
4. Here already have similar apps like this but none of them is finger friendly and with good quality Sound so im talking about a Brain Wave Machine the app must to be with Some good interface finger friendly like a Music Player and to contain only the Brain wave Tones im speaking about ISOTRONIC tones because they are much better and they are the best from all Brain tones so in the Market already have with Binaural Beats but the Isochronic Tones are the best of the best, i can help you by provide you over 50 Diferent and Hight Quality Isotronic Sounds for diferent kind of MODS like from Euphoria, deep meditaion sleep, Chakra Balancing, and alot alot alot more just to integrate in that Player so just simple you need to start the APP and choice what kind of SOUND YOU want.
If you don`t know for what im talking about and the peoples wonder what this sound are here is some review for all of you.
Binaural Beats :
Sine wave generators are used to create two separate frequency waves which are introduced to each ear independently.
The brain reacts by creating a third tone which is the difference between the two. This allows the brain to directly tune into a frequency
that the ear cannot hear! The entire range of Alpha and Theta frequencies (between 5-12 Hz) have been tested extensively in several studies.
It was concluded that a specific combination of frequencies consistently caused a Shift In Consciousness!
Monaural Beats:
This technology uses two tones of equal intensity which result in a crisp and clean sound. Unlike Binaural Beats, Monaural beats are easier
on your brain because there is no need to balance the tones and your mind does not need adjusting time. Monaural Beats use a single tone that
pulses on and off in specific patterns, which is tuned specifically for the frequencies that produce the desired effect.
Isochronic Tones:
If you are looking for the most effective type of brainwave entrainment, Isochronic Tones are the way to go. Isochronic Tones also use equal intensity
tones, but the pulse speed is greater, causing the brain to synchronize with the rhythm. In 1999, Thomas Budzynski Ph.D. published a case in the
Journal of Neurotherapy which showed that a group of 8 college students increased their GPA with the use of audio brainwave stimulation,
and their GPA continued to increase even after the experiment was finished!
P.S i can play the sounds now without a problem with any Player on my Blackstone but will be even easy and beter they to be integrated in one single APP and you don`t need to search them everytime you wana listen. If you like the idea let me know i can provide all the tones for free. Till now NO SOFT like this is avalible, i mean with the best ISOTRONIC SOUNDS
I have alot more ideas so if you ask for more will write​
Performance Computer Using G-Sensor
I believe it would be very fine if you could develop an application for calculating Distance/Travel, Speed and acceleration by using G-sensor. all the similar available application do this job via GPS, not G-sensor.
The hypothesis is easy. Acceleration data are available through G-sensor, then by integrating these data, velocity can be found, and by once more integration from velocity values, distance can be calculated.
Such application is very useful for engineers, and I'm sure soon after developing, it could be commercialized.
Minilyrics-like app
hello!
There is none lyrics app like Minilyrics for WM. The font is customizable, and easy for the eyes to read, the skin is great...but...but the Minilyrics buttons are super small! And the playlist is almost imposible to read and click unless u're using stylus! They seem doesnt want to upgrade the app since last year for WVGA resolution. I have to assign qwerty button to replace the play, stop etc buttons which are so small.
I love to sing along with the song, who doesnt? kareoke in the car, anyone?

Dear Steve Ballmer and Microsoft (WP7 Related)

Dear Steve Ballmer & Microsoft,
Before I begin my rant, please allow me to say that I have used many many many PDA phones. And WP7 has without a doubt, some of the most GLARING problems I have ever seen in a mobile OS.
My phone history (in no [particular order]:
-T-mobile Pocket PC (the 1st one)
- SE P800, P900, P910I
- Xperia X1
- Many different WM 5.0, 6.0 6.5 phones (maybe 10 or more). If I were to list them all this would take all day. My most recent WM phone before this HD7 was the HTC TyTN II.
- Nokia N93i, N95, N900 (still got it)
- Nokia Communicators 9210 and E90
- Iphone 1st Gen
- Kyocera Palm OS phone
- Probably other stuff I forgot about along the way.
(Btw, all of these phones had address books which worked great)
I am in no way saying that I am some PDA expert, but I think its safe to say I've used alot of PDAs.
Good afternoon. I really hope somebody from Microsoft or Steve himself or some MS dev is reading this.
I recently bought a HTC HD7 and after using it for 1hr my initial impressions were very good....THEN i used it a bit longer and I started to realize something.
Cons:
1. The contact list function is really really bad. You guys replaced the standard address book function with the Facebook contact list. It is horribly bad. It is so bad that it leads me to believe that NONE OF YOU have actually used facebook in your life. If any of you developers were actually familiar with Facebook, you would have realized that most consumers definitely do not want 80% of their Facebook contacts cluttering/polluting their cell phones address book. Also, why am I not able to browse through my Facebook contacts photos? Am I missing something? Why cant I simply just tap the portrait of my facebook friend and look at his profile pictures?
2. The WP7's media playerss seek function needs to work like a STANDARD portable TOUCH SCREEN media player. Why am I not able skip to the part of the video I want to watch by simply sliding my finger along the time bar until I reach my target moment? Why am I forced to press a seek button instead? I thought this was a touch screen phone, not to mention the fact that Pocket PC, Pocket PC 2003, WM 5.0 WM 6.0 WM 6.5 all included this missing function. Do you guys even watch movies on your cell phones? Or are you guys still using Nokia 5200s?
3. Xbox Live is buggy as hell. I download a game through Xbox Live and it says I need to connect my phone to my computer or connect to wifi (It was already both) in order to complete the install. There is no easy way to check the progress of the installation of download unless I try to download another application. Is the ability to check the progress without downloading another app hidden somewhere? If so, why is it hidden?
4. When I try to visit a previous webpage and I press the hardware backwards arrow botton, it kicks me out of IE.
5. The hardware buttons have great sensitivity, but I am constantly pressing them by accident (with my palm), thus closing my active program unintentionally.
And let me tell you, I do not have large hands.
6. I dunno why it doesnt work as a USB drive natively. Perhaps this is some sort of piracy control measure or you are trying to mimic apple.
7. Cant copy and paste. I dunno why this is so hard for you guys. You guys could have some sort of hardware button, that when pushed activates a 2nd function to the screen pressing. Instead of clicking on a link, if the hardware button is pressed, it would allow the user to select the letters and highlight them. Then copy/paste somewhere else.
8. I cannot delete/hide my recently browsed youtube video history. I was looking at videos of girls shaking their butts and afterwards when I went to my zune application, I saw the video thumbnails there! I cant delete or hide them? Where is the privacy?
9. Doesnt support Divx codecs, which it should because this is a phone for a "mobile life style". Why would I want to sit at my computer for hrs waiting for my videos to convert? Why do you guys and apple insist on your own proprietary formats?
Sub-Score: -9
Pros:
1. Works fast, very smooth. Is this a result of the reduced interface .
2. Web browsing is pretty good, except I cant fast forward through youtube videos by sliding my finger on the time bar.
Sub-Score: +2
Total Score: -7
I do not believe this phone is beyond saving. Surely you guys must have noticed some of the things I mentioned. Why you did not remedy these issues before the release? I do not know. If you guys were unaware of the problems I mentioned, well now you know. Please fix these issues soon and FFS, please add a proper address book application and allow me to use my finger/time bar to seek through a video/song/youtube vid.
Currently, I would have to say this phone is nothing more than a portable media player with some phone functions built in. And you guys already screwed up with the media player part.
If I could go back in time (which was only yesterday) I would have bought a HTC Desire HD. But I cant so I can only pray that you guys fix some/most of these issues.
If I am sorely mistaken and some of these functions actually are included and hidden somewhere, why are they not intuitive?
Thanks.....for nothing.....
I always liked the N95 symbian address book that allowed me to create groups for my contacts and I liked all WM previous phone dialers which would cross reference all incoming and outgoing calls with the numbers I was pressing.
Microsoft should atleast make a dialer thats as good as their previous ones, and maybe learn a thing or 2 from Symbian.
Edit: I just read that it was possible to cut down the number of contacts from facebook that appear in your phone, but it still should not be this difficult. I should be able to simple long press the contact and select delete or hide.
Nice One Star thread repeating issues in about 20 other threads
One thing I'd like to agree with the OP about is the Capacitive buttons. They're a good idea in theory (the Vibrant has them as well), but they're practically terrible. They are very prone to hitting by accident.
Lots of OSes can learn from Symbian, but being the Jack of All Trades has not worked for any OS to date. Windows Mobile also supported a ton of stuff and it's marketshare in the US suffered a lot. Symbian has great marketshare overseas because the OS is used in low-end feature phones as well. They aren't strong in the mid-high end smartphone market.
And they would be, if they didn't put such small NANDs in the phones, skimp on the RAM in the phones (it uses a Virtual memory architechture, but the phones still need at least 348 MB RAM, IMO), and have such an embarassing user interface. I really like that it has the most flexible development environment of any smartphone OS, though (similar to [again] Windows Mobile on that front).

1. There's a separate Facebook app in the marketplace. If you don't want to integrate everyone, get it.
2. Agree on this point.
3. Never happened to me. If you want to see the progress stay on that page. A little bar begins to fill up. So I don't know what you're talking about.
4. Only time that happens to me is when I exit IE and then try to come back in.
5. Sorry, but that's user error.
6. There's already a workaround. You can use it as a mass storage device.
7. Its coming in the update. Why is that so hard to get?
8. Don't browse inappropriate videos? Or play a few more things after to make it replace the history items.
9. Kinda agree, but its not unheard of at all. So why would they do it?
EDIT: Poster above was more succint.
The problem isn't DivX as far as I understand, it's avi. Divx is just an implementation of MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile, which is supported. And the strange part here is that avi is Microsoft's own proprietary format, while mp4 is Apple's. Strange times.
Scrubbing is needed not only for long videos, I use it all the time for YouTube and music (especially podcasts, many of which aren't properly separated into chapters).
WOW, only the 20th "I hate WP7" thread for today so far? Hmmm, the trolls are slacking.

He got the phone. It has many limitations he doesn't like.
So what's your problem?
"Coming in the update" means nothing. It may be month or 5 months.
Nobody buys a device to wait for update, well, maybe only tech geeks, but that's not the phone for them.

And he, like everyone else who bought one, should've known the deficiencies the devices carry atm. So, what's your problem?
You don't like the features a phone has or is lacking, you don't buy it. Simple, no?
And the update is expected in January.

Dear Steve Ballmer & Microsoft,
1. The contact list function is really really bad. You guys replaced the standard address book function with the Facebook contact list. It is horribly bad. It is so bad that it leads me to believe that NONE OF YOU have actually used facebook in your life. If any of you developers were actually familiar with Facebook, you would have realized that most consumers definitely do not want 80% of their Facebook contacts cluttering/polluting their cell phones address book. Also, why am I not able to browse through my Facebook contacts photos? Am I missing something? Why cant I simply just tap the portrait of my facebook friend and look at his profile pictures?

You do know that you can disable Facebook friends as contacts in the settings, don't you?

People these days expect the phone to pop up push messages from the microsoft servers for days after they buy it detailing every single detail of the device.
Reading, Reading Comprehension, Critical Thinking... These sorts of things are out the window these days.

Bet your house on that. Our society is getting dumber, lazier and more malleable by the minute. Though I digress...
LOL... This guy's not a troll!
He's genuinely disappointed with his purchase and has every right to complain about it. If you WP7 sympathisers were honest with yourselves, you would recognise that there are currently plenty of problems with this platform, and disaffected users have every right to complain.
There's no point pretending the problems don't exist.. it's obvious they, perhaps you only ever read Microsoft blogs and listen to Channel 9. If you want a true indication about how many users are feeling, just read the Microsoft questions and answers forum.
Guys,
This is still a new OS, it's been out for ONE month, many of these things gonna be replaced or added with updates. Just wait and see. The most important thing now is that's a fast and simple OS. Just remember what ****ty phone iPhone was, look what it became now... Time does miracles!
Alright guys, I'm leaving this open thread to know the answer, if it occurs.
And also for others to vent, but we will maintain an acceptable level before they start fighting funboys because of companies.

Agreed,
Unfortunately I have the feeling that most people here now refuse to see the obvious problems with this platform (no USB, no DivX, and so many others...)
Seems like there is no right to judge and criticize the OS.
We shall not become like the iPhone fanboys. Seriously.
I also think that WP7 is a truly disappointing experience as I don't like to be forced to use all these external MS services (Zune, Skydrive, Marketplace, etc...) that just make me waste my time.
And I expect nothing from the so-called January update.
I love threads like this. Keep em coming lol jk. But man the pole jockers in here have fits when anyone say something about wp7. I dont know what everyones country rules are. But mine is freedom of speech. So if the dont like what the guy or troll have to say, dont feed him. Case Closed.
To the OP, I suggest you spill your mind on these boards http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsphone7/threads
At least it gets some exposure for Microsoft.
