Hello I have just got my evo from sprint and love it. I was with tmobile before and was very fond of one of the options to have music playing for the caller instead of the usual ring which the call a call tone. Sprint also has this option but not a very wide selection. I just rooted my phone and im using the fresh rom and kernel and was wondering if anyone has an idea if there is a way to create your own call tone or callback tone? I have searched online and cant find a definite answer. Any Sugestions?

I havent used that feature with sprint in ages, but it use to only be the choices that sprint had since it isnt coming from your cell phone
I was wondering if there is an app to record a phone call on the epic that works with out having to put the phone on speaker - my only sanyo did this back in the day
You can record the call using google voice.
I thought of the same thing, but with federal wiring taping laws the way they are it would need an audible beep so the other party knows they are being recorded.

Socos your wrong most states have laws allowing you to record your own calls with out notifying the user. Is there a way I can make google voice have out going calls but show my # not google voices?

Also how can I record out going calls? I am pretty sure gvoice only records incoming calls.

acctually dependinf on the the state in OHIO only one person in the conversation needs to know that it is being recorded that is way the cops need a judge to sign off on it cause neither parties or people know that they are being taped
google voice only records incoming calls... that is 100% for sure. anyone have a call recording app that works well on the Epic4G? heck... i had a great one for my palm centro and so i should have one for my Epic4g should i not?

You can normally tell when someone does receive a call waiting notification either from the conversation cutting out or hearing some other anomally. I don't think that this would be a software issue for Google to fix though.

I turned the call waiting off , then i called myself and picked up, and then called from another number at the same time then it just say user is busy it gives no beeping or any kind of notification when i am on a call, this is one of the issues with android. and definately a missing feature or havent been looked at.Cause only i should get the notification for beeping not the caller who is on call waiting.
i havent used any androids before but in any other phone i used there is no notification to my caller that i am receiving a call just to me i get a beep sound that someone is on call waiting.
No one has an answer ? Common guys I am on the biggest websites for android.
Anyone of you tried what i am talking about ?
I use the settings you were describibg and i get an anoying double beep sound when someone else calls me...
Just by "phone-app > settings > adittional >".
Remember that some serviceproviders don't support this feature though.

is there any develpor even looking or understanding what i am trying to say here ?
or can someone point me in a direction so i can atleast point this to someone who can do something about it ?
have anyone tried or tested what i am talking about ?
ok again i ll try to elaborate my question again.
i am on a call with 1st person , a second person calls me i can hear the beep that someone else is calling but the 1st person i am talking to also gets a beep that another person is calling me. why ?
and if i turn off call waiting is settings>additinal settings then i dont get any notification and i cant pick up the call ,as i am not notified,and the second user just get that i am busy

Wauw I never knew other hear the beep as well. But as fast as it happens i tell the person i'm calling with to wait for a second (unless that call is more important) and then i click the on hold button. After 2 or 3 seconds my phone will ring and I can pick it up...
how long are people allowed to dial in, and have you got redirect (wich standard goes to voicemail) on at your phone or provider? Check that up by dialing your voicemail and checking the spoken information. As for the beep... i can't reproduce it nor know it... how loud is your speaker?

Basically what he is saying that both parties hear the beep when someone is calling him. I hear it too in my phone, I think its a service provider thing because in my country, every phone I had switched on call waiting both parties will hear the beep.
P.s even when using my Bluetooth so there is no way they can hear it from my speaker.

exactly, but if i put my sim in my nokia phone only i hear the beep that someone is calling the other person doesnt.
So i am sure this is not related to service provider.

Then long gone the feature phones. Welcome to the smart phones world. I don't think you can get rid of that, I'm stuck with it so I stopped paying attention. You should too

Well how can you say that this is a feature ? lol......
I know this is a smartphone , but right know i can see this is a dumb feature(if you call it a feature),or i can say this havent been looked into at all by google.
So now my question do all androids have this same issue ?
Can some pro-dev tell me if there is anything that can be done ,any tweak any software ?
Hi, love the built in call blocking functions on my Galaxy Note 2 and Do Not Disturb on iOS 6. Looking for a similar app for my N4. What are you guys using, what do you recommend? Thanks!
I use EasyFilter. Handles call and message blocking nicely for me.

Root Call Blocker. You wont even know SMS or CALL is blocked. it will never ring. Just blocks it right from the start. Of coarse, you can still have it notify you with each block..
Thanks guys, I will give those a shot.
i would also suggest Root Call Blocker.. I have been using that for a while.

Can you set this up so that from like, midnight to 7am, it blocks all calls EXCEPT for those from specific people on your contact list?
If so that's pretty sweet.

Yes, it will do a call blocking schedule.. you would set up a particular black list, then can schedule what times it goes in affect, can even specify which days. or the pro version does any way.. But for me it was worth the money
Very worth it. its the only call blocker that actually works and doesn't ring. It let's the system know that the number is on your blacklist and doesn't allow it to ring..

I've got a question about Root call blocker. The miss calls don't end up in my normal call log, but instead go to a log inside of root call blocker. Is there a way to set it so that the missed calls show up in my normal dialer? Other than this, Root Call Blocker does everything I want it to. I'm so sick of work wasting my minutes every month. I need something like this that will block everything but a whitelist, but I really want the miss calls to show up in my call log, not have to check a second app for that.
After some more research and playing around, I don't think Root Call Blocker is capable of this. What I'm looking for is an app that will forward an incoming call to voicemail unless the number is in my contacts. That way I don't have to hear the phone ring, but it still shows up as a missed call in the log. I "might" be interested in having the phone ring for non-contacts if someone calls me repeatedly, because I'd know it was important.
The Play store has some apps that claim that they can do this, but reviews say that none of them do it well, and they require the user to keep the ringer & notifications muted. This means if you are doing something you will be interrupted for the duration of the phone ringing, and the phone will display the incoming call screen. It also means that you will get no notification sounds through the phone for any apps. This won't work at all.
Any suggestions for me? Root call blocker would be awesome if calls showed up in the dialer log. It would be perfect if you could set it to allow repeated calls through.

I'll look into Tasker. I didn't think to even try it out. I'll do some YouTubing and searching around the web to see what I can figure out. I think it would take a few profiles to do what I want it to do:
1. Non Contacts are sent to Voicemail, missed call shows up in the call log, phone never rings.
2. If a non-contact calls me twice or more in 2 minutes, let the call go through to the phone.
3. Contacts calls work as normal.
4. Putting Ringtones & Notifications volume to mute should not be required.

Root Call Blocker. Fantastic app and works silently, blocking and not notifying you of texts or calls (can alter settings so that you do receive a notification if you prefer).

Call Master does everything I want except show the missed / blocked calls in the call log. I have to use its call log to see what I missed. That's not the end of the world for me though. So far Call Master does what I want the best.
Anyone found an app to AUTOMATICALLY record phone calls? I've tried two, ACR and Call Recorder. Both have problems recording the other person - with ACR the other person sounds garbled and with Call Recorder the other person isn't recorded at all.
The stock dialer lets you record phone calls, but not automatically.
Anyone found an app that will record phone calls on the G3? What is it?
Thanks!
Stock recorder does not let you record on a d851. Have spoken to both devs they all say it a hardware issue but yet tweakedbox g3 records.
AWESOME G3

G3 tweaksbox will allow you to add call recording and then recorded calls go to Voice Recorder app.
FYI, I get the same garbled caller side of my recorded calls with G3 Tweaksbox for some reason.
The other end of the line is garbled and distorted, barely able to make anything out of it, about 85% of all calls are like that, whether outgoing or incoming.
And it seems the louder the other end of the line is, it becomes even more distorted, but it's not from talking loud, my end is recorded fine, even when I tried yelling, it seems to be the way it's handling the receiving audio.

Pretty sure this is how you can get it working...
After talking to @wideasleep1 about his settings with Automatic Call Recorder (FREE), and applying a couple settings of my own in both phone settings and in G3 TweaksBox, I was able to get the call recording nice and clear!... here's how to do it:
Pic 1 - G3 TweakBox settings
Pic 2 - Settings (access this during call)
Pic 3 - Automatic Call Recorder settings (1 of 2)
Pic 4 - Automatic Call Recorder settings (2 of 2)
*once in a while on a certain call the recipient will sound fuzzy, maybe is related to the phone's main audio volume while on the call though. I'd say about 50%-70% up is a good volume. Anyways, someone wanna try this out and post your results?
Pic 4... Sorry
Ok this will add the record button when on a call. It will not auto record maybe I'll see about modding the apks to make that happen when I get some time. I have tried this and it's not terribly bad. There's a little crackling if the other persons voice gets to loud. So if you just want the option to be there for the next time you call Comast it''s there, also this is a flashable zip so please do a backup first :good:

Anything.. Lol
The point is that the os doesn't see them. Renaming the file achieves this without permanently deleting the files in case you want to revert later.
So, resurrecting a dead horse here...
When you're hearing the calls sound "garbled", the reason why is because the gain of the side-of-the-call-in-question is set too high
What I mean by this, for people who don't have experience with audio processing:
A file will have a given maximum-volume it can store for any given sound sample.
If it is told to write a volume higher than that maximum, it will write the maximum instead.
"Distortion" is a term for what this type of thing does to sound; specifically in this form, where the numbers are just cut down to size with no finesse, it is called "hard clippIng" and generally sounds pretty awful
The solution is to basically bring down the volume of the incoming sounds that are being recorded – i.e., in this case, the other person's end of the call needs to have its volume brought down coming into the recording app / system
The term for incoming volume is "gain"
So, the LG built-in call recorder needs the incoming gain, esp. that of the incoming calls, brought down to fix this
There is likely a number in some obscure preference file that controls this. I just have no idea where to look.
Anyone have any leads??
One of the updates to ACR this year included a gain control. By reducing the gain, I can now record calls with no distortion. Success!
