Hello,
Is there an app that lets u record incoming / outgoing conversations or use as a recorder in general? It can be activated manually and mapped to a key or something?
Yes before you tell me to search I got this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421652 but this doesnt really help. I found "Resco Audio Recorder" but doesn't look all that good (http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/audiorecorder/default.asp), does anyone have recommendations?
Freeware is best but if its really good, i gues I can pay for it.
thanks

I'm not sure why you thought the Resco Audio Recorder "doesn't look all that good." I use it on my 8525 (still waiting for the Fuze) with very good results. It has a lot of capabilities -- you can record fairly high fidelity to MP3, for instance, or get really compact voice recordings using the Speex format (there are other supported formats, too); it's got built-in digital signal processing for automatic volume control and noise reduction; voice-activated recording; smart display-blanking to save battery; bookmarks in recordings; etc., etc. It's a really nice, capable application, and it's hard to imagine what else one might want or need in a recorder.

thanks for that, in the thread I posted above, the ppl here said that it cannot record both sides of the converations in a call... can you confirm that it does and it can also start automatically or if u want with a press of a button? thanks for helping out.
nothing can record both sides of the conversation on touch pro (for now atleast)
resco audio recorder works well on my atom exec

The Resco recorder does record both sides of a conversation, but only on phones that make the incoming side available; it's my understanding from the responses in that thread (which I initiated, BTW) that the Touch Pro is not one of those phones. (I'll be checking that out for myself very shortly after I get my Fuze, hopefully within the next week.) I don't think that's any different from any other recorder software that's available.
It can be set up to record conversations automatically or at the press of a button (although I'm not sure how well that will work with the Touch Pro, as buttons are in very short supply), and it will record both sides of the conversation if you are using the speakerphone. And for all other uses (lectures, concerts, dictation, etc.) it's very nice. It's just a hardware limitation, not a software problem, that prevents use of the recorder for capturing the incoming side of normal phone conversations.
thanks friend... I'll do more research before I act... if by that time u have tested it out, do let me know. thanks v much~! u've been a super help.
Well, if you use the speaker phone the integrated note function can take audio recordings as well though the sound is not very good. It also works on normal phone calls, but the remote side is at very low volume.

I downloaded the trial for "Audio Notes".
Working great so far. Records both ends of the conversation on both incoming and outgoing calls. Also takes memos through either mouthpiece or speakerphone.
You can tell it what quality you want to record and where to record to.
It also labels the recording according to the name of the person you talked to.
Good stuff.
This is Vito AudioNotes you are referring to? If so, that's great to hear; it's a bit bare-bones compared to Resco, but it's inexpensive. If both-sides recording works with Vito, that means it probably would with Resco, too, but if not, I'm willing to pay for both use Vito for phone recording and Resco for everything else. Thanks for the info!

Just to clearify, does it work on "the usual conversations" I mean, the normal way u talk on the phone, NOT speakerphone?
Cause we all know there's quiet a few sw that works in speakerphone mode and that simply doesn't cut it.
It MUST work when u are using it "normally"
Yeah. It's vito audio notes 1.32
It works with normal (non speaker phone) phone calls.
Actually, I'm not sure if it works with speakerphone too.. I haven't tried that yet. Will do that in a bit to make sure.
What's better about Resco? *edit: nevermind. I just looked at the screenshots of resco audio recorder. It does look nicer. Has more features too... But honestly... the vito program is really nice, and simple to use.
By the way. I'm using the Sprint Touch Pro... so I can't say for sure whether or not this prog works with the other versions. Either way, there's a free trial you can use... so no harm in trying it out first.
last i heard, audionotes didnt work...

Maybe not for some... But my Sprint model Touch Pro works perfectly...
Abd again, there's a free trial of it... so nothing's lost if it doesn't work for you.
I don't work for the company either, so I'm definitely not trying to sell
anyone. I really don't care actually. Just thought I'd post up how well the program
is working for me so far.

Yeah, same here, thx for the tip!
BTW, just a quick Q: I doesn't have that annoying "beep" every now and then? So the person at the other end can here that you're recording?
I also have a Sprint Touch Pro and after reading this thread, I downloaded a trial of Vito 1.32 to give this a try.
Just as background, I'm a former Treo user (Palm OS) and the hardware supported recording of both sides of a phone conversation in very clear audio. This was most evident when listening to recordings (on a headset), one side of the conversation is heard in the left ear and the other in the right ear.
Now as for Vito on the Sprint Touch Pro, here's what I've observed:
When using the the phone normally (i.e. holding the device to your ear), the software does record both sides of the conversation. It does so in a manner that plays both sides of the conversation back in the left ear (when wearing headphones). My opinion is that the loudness of the earpiece allows this software to record the "other end" of the call in a manner similar to the "speakerphone method". The quality of the "other end" of the conversation is significantly lower than my end of the conversation. So it would seem that the hardware on the Touch Pro doesn't completely support this. Another indicator of this is that it only records my end of the conversation when I record a call using the included HTC headset.
So the verdict is that it does work, but I still think there's a hardware obstacle. I'm a headset kinda guy, so I guess I'm out of luck. Hope this helps.
That's not good.
I'll probably be getting a stereo bt headset soon, so that's going to be a problem.
Too bad there's no individual (in/out) volume control...

Thx for your input m8!
So I suppose it won't work with a bluetooth headset neither.
Anyway, I'm glad it works without(?) beeps in the normal mode, in that case you'll have the time to snap off the headset if you see that the incomming call is from that person you'd like to record.
well phonecalls come through in mono, so i cant imagine it working through both speakers
hi noob here and just wanted to throw this out there.
I haven't got s-Off yet, but looking forward to installing custom roms when I can. I have a few things That can be improved as htc have missed them. So hopefully those guys into making changes come across this and make the changes.
Music widget: Doesn't update album art with currently playing song until you stop on the widget and allow it to update, can this be made instantaneous ? Also, multiple album art within album list is a bit much, I think a standard list with track time would b much better.
Message tone: cannot be changed without a third party app, also when on a call of the tone is longer than 1-2
seconds it will play in your ear for the full duration with no way to stop it, and you cannot hear the caller either. When there are headphone's attached, notification tones play through the loudspeaker, when all sound should be diverted to headphones.
Bluetooth: I use wireless headphones, I'm having quality issues when I move away from the handset, it seems htc have crippled the wireless features when it comes to this version of software. Also is there anyway to get the sound enhancer to work with bluetooth headphones?
Files: Cannot access sd card from the phone to see all files, have to connect to pc.
Call history: All calls incoming, received and missed show up multiple times for same contact. Then you also have the history button to the right of the contact which then shows all details incoming, outgoing, missed, time stamps, date. Can this be changed to just one icon per caller/contact. (hope this one made sense, was a bit hard to explain with out being confusing)
Well this is all that I have noticed so far and hope that it wont be too much trouble to change, would love to see the phone as its supposed to be, even if htc seem to have no idea right now, I would seriously love to slap there design team. especially for the WiFi issues they are really bad with my device, so pissed after getting rid of the motorola milestone 2 which was an epic fail, and now htc also has bugs!
Has anyone else noticed anything that could be changed for the better??? Add it here and lets see if the developers can change it all to have an awesome handset!

Dear all,
I did the most silly thing I've ever done in my life with trying to reset my transformer by setting a pin in the... microphone entry. I've had to many wmobile phones and I hadn't read the manual.
Hopefully I didn't push like a donkey and the microphone is still working.
But I'm quite a paranoid and I'd like to check if my microphone has been damaged because now that I'm paying attention to its quality, I noticed that the sss sounds look more like "sh" sounds.
Could someone please kindly upload a microphone sample with some speaking with some "sss" in order for me to compare?
Thank you!
Regards
Excalius
Boy,
nobody wants to take 30 secs to help? I posted here the sound sample I take when speaking really low.
I just cant send you the file because I'm too new on this website.
just hit filedropper.com and follow by
/recording-20110519-031504_1
Please tell me if you see a similar problem on your device and send a sample from it.
Yours has a kind of background whirring noise to it, don't know if thats a pc fan in the background or the mic broken, but mine isnt like that.
And you also sound very quiet, but you may just be further away from your device than I was from mine when I tested it.
I couldnt find where the default recording app saved the files so I used an app called PCM recorder to record it at 48000Hz. Whatever app you used to record your clip, created it in a very poor audio quality. It has a kind of 'underwater' sound quality, which is common with low bitrate recordings.
Oh and you'll have to take my word for it as I'm not posting an audio clip.
Ok thank you.
And there,

/recording-20110519-173337
do you still hear an anormal buzzing sound? You really can't send me a recording without speaking just to hear your sound?
And the shh are present with you too?
Thanks

Howdy I have a fairly specific requirement for a video recording app, I'll explain:
I'm making a head unit for my car stereo out of a 7" tablet, the tablet has a camera which I'm running to the front bumper.
Now I'd like it if I could record incase anything neat happens on the road, but just constantly hitting record isn't feasible, I was hoping there'd be an app or method where it constantly records for a period, say 10 minutes, and then deletes the last recording and starts over.
That way if something happens you actually want to keep you can just hit Save Last Video or whatever.
Any ideas?
What about some type of dvr software that constantly records? Security software?
Ok, like what?
The dilemma is that I don't want to be constantly recording/deleting videos but I don't want to miss something cool happening because I hadn't hit record that one time.
So I was thinking something that just lets you save the last 30 minutes or whatever if you choose to but otherwise deletes and starts another 30 min recording...
How do people normally get around this with in car cameras?
During video calls (WhatsApp, google duo etc) can't hear kids voices but can hear adult voice clearly. Seems like the phone software is editing out high pitched kids voices in order to make adult voice clearer. This is making listening to kids impossible during any kind of video calls. Could be the "clear calling" feature working in background. Any fix available to stop this?
I do meetings on Google Meet for work and sometimes the background noise filtering will filter out people. I have noticed that if mutiple people attempt to speak at the same time, some people will sometimes be completely silenced. It usually seems to give priority to the person that is speaking first.
I don't know if there is anyway to turn off the noise filtering. One this that might help is to make sure that people aren't speaking at the same time. I know that isn't always easy or fun with kids, though.

That's very difficult with kids sometimes!
It happens with my kid too. He has a high pitched voice and the phone treats him like background noise. When his mom calls to say hi she cannot hear a word he says. Not if the phone is perfectly on his head, not if I hold it in front of his face, not if it is on speaker phone. The best you can do is report it as a problem using your phone and hope enough people complain that something gets done. Many people (probably without kids or family) joke that not hearing the voices of kids on phone calls is a blessing. Not so much when it is their mother who wants to talk to them.

Try resetting the phone app cache and removing any case on the phone. Force stop the phone app by long pressing on it, then the exclamation mark, force stop. Then select storage & cache, clear cache. Then make a phone call and pretty much immediately have the tiny voice do some talking. Seems to have fixed my problem.

Phone call works fine, the voice on video calls is broken
I have same problem on video calls
It happens on my wife pixel 7 too. I cannot hear my sons voice, sometimes his voice is very low.
Same issue. Wife/grandparents couldn't hear my kids on video calls (Messenger, Meet, WhatsApp). I returned the phone because of this issue.
