Doesn't work though..

Does anyone have voice call recording apk ?

collaboration on finding the app
I'm slowly trying one by one.
Made a spreadsheet in Google Docs to document the effort.
Can't post link directly cause i'm a new user here.
After the root URL for google docs, it's:
/spreadsheet/ccc?
key=0AoXJEOIu0EvfdHNEdFNLUU5KR0lLemVzaUl3ckdTelE
Email me or reply with your email address to get write access to the document,
so we can collaborate on the search.

I guess a very generous developer could resolve the issues for us. Maybe create a script or a kernel.

google talk with cm10

I have searched the forums and haven't found anything about being able to use google talk (video chat) with cm10. I haven't posted enough to put this question into the cm10 forum. So if someone wants to put this question into that forum I would appreciate that.
Thanks

I just came across this issue while trying to do a phone to phone (over LTE4g) Gtalk video chat (i did a google search and found your post). Once we finally got video chat to connect the person on the other end (galaxy nexus running CM10 M1build) could not hear me, I was able to hear them. We repeated the process 2 or 3 times but I was not able to get them to hear me until i switch to my desktop. I have the VZW SGS3 running CM10 9/17build. Sorry i cant be of more help, but maybe this will bring light to any Gtalk video chat issues that might exist.

I have the same problem with CM10 9/20.
Also... The voice dial app does not hear me either. Google Now does. I wonder if there is a problem with the way these programs are initializing the microphone. This is also making it impossible to call using only a bluetooth headset.

I could receive the call but camera could never connect. Was a little frustrating.
I did find something about talk working in cm but not in cm10 yet. I'm sure that this will be fixed soon.

One thing that I didn't try was fixing permissions. not sure if that would fix the problem that I have with google chat

I have the same problem CM10 M1 and 9/23 d2spr

I couldn't find any CM10 builds older than M1, but I am also experiencing a low mic gain/volume when using the walkie-talkie app Voxer. This was first noticed on Euroskank builds after 09/17. 09/17 is the last Euroskank build that performs normally pertaining to the mic gain problem. I also factory/devlik wiped and loaded CM10 M1 and CM10 09/23 and am experiencing the same issue. This also occurs in Miui's 2.9.21 BETA (CM10 9/23 based) rom.

That would be unlikely to help. Permissions effect the filesystem and read/write access. If you can install apps then it is probable that your permissions are fine.

[Q] Read messaged aloud?

Hey guys,
I was curious if anyone has an app that can read Google hangouts aloud for driving purposes. The few I have tried (for sms) dont seem to work.
Thanks.

Sorry if this should have gone in questions part of forum. Please move if needed.

not a soul huh?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1548959
tasker works on my stock 4.4.2 for sms via google hangouts(with root and gravitybox and other stuff)
had to put a 2s wait before initializing TTS, otherwise you'll get a error - TTS timeout waiting for initialization
haven't tried it with non-sms google hangouts
EDIT: someone seems to make it work via looking at the sqlite db that google hangouts uses

Tasker can monitor and read any notifcation. The latest information is stored in global variable %NTITLE.

I use Enhanced SMS and Caller ID. Works great with Hangouts texts - can ask you if you want it read, then read it, then ask you if you want to reply, and send you reply for you. Completely hands free, and can set it to only work when connected to headset/bluetooth if you want. Been using it for years. Developer is responsive and continually improving. Highly recommended. He also does subsets of the functions in different apps, but I have only used the main one:

[Q] Voip Call Recorder for Whatsapp

Hi
Is there any app to record voip calls of whatsapp or other voip services.
Thanks

Thats what I'd like to know, too. As far as I know there's no such thing for whatsapp. Since the function is quite new, I'm quite sure that it'll take some time until someone gets it working. I didn't find any working skype call recorder, that's why I think It'll take A LOT of time... or is there a working skype recorder?
for "normal" calls I use "Total Recall" what is - in my opinion - by far the best call recording app! sadly it does not work with VOIP and I don't think the developers are going to implement this (since apps like skype are closed source, I think).

I am looking for the same: an app that records Whatsapp calls.
Anything available?

i could do it

Original sound quality would be good. Additionally, speech and recieved speech should not be mixed up in the same audio track.

How it can be done ??

I am working on this but stuck with a roadblock
The problem is that whatsapp itself uses MediaRecorder API to record and that prevents any other app from using MediaRecorder to record calls when whatsapp call is going on.
I have tried to find location of audio file that whatsapp is storing but couldn't.
I am out of ideas now. Can someone please suggest some way out?

Cube Call Recorder is able to, on phones with hardware that is able to process two simultaneous audio recording sessions.
They have a list of supported devices here.

Is there any other solution with root, because cube recorder is not working for me

Hi, I have the same problem now with my Pixel 3a and Android 10 (everything stock). Before updating everything was fine.
I contacted pixel support and they told me that may be one of my apps that's messing with the camera, and to unistall my apps one by one to try to find which one is responsible for this situation (in safe mode the camera is working fine).
Did you find some way to fix it?

Hi there. Same here, glad to find I am not alone.
After some panic and then some 4 hours night trying all the apps, trying safe mode etc. I know the culprit: it is Google App with Assistant listening in the background. When you set the voice match to listen to your "OK Google" command (in G App setting->voice match) then you have the hiss. When you turn the function off it goes away. What is funny there is no hiss if you record using front camera. At least good it is not hardware, but extremely unpro from Google as it is their own app that causes the problem. I guess Android 10 is just not polished yet.
I am searching for the most direct way to report it, already did it through settings->tips&co->feedback, but would like to directly contact the Google App devs. Any idea?

Hi, thank you very much, it worked!
I don't know any other way to contact the Google Apps devs, but I'm sending an email to the Google support agent I talked with yesterday for this problem.
If you find another way to report it, let me know and I'll do it too.
Have a nice day.

Could you send me his/her e-mail address as well? I would report it wherever possible as many times as possible And keep us posted if any news - as will I.
I would guess that not many people might have noticed the bug yet (it's like 3 days since the debut of Android 10), but as it is software based and on a fresh, new Android version then perhaps quite a bunch of people are having this bug, but don't know about it yet or don't know where to find help.

Your solution work very well and solve the problem!!!
Thanks!!!

Happy to help Still the issue is not really resolved as this solution handicaps one of Assistants main functions.
I have reported it here: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/14361608?hl=en
Hope this helps and the issue is resolved with the next update of Android 10 or Google App.

Aside from the hiss problem, does the audio recording quality on A10 is the same from Android 9? For videos and audio messages...

I didn't notice any quality loss
For the hiss problema I send a feedback with "tips & support" in settings!

Hey guys. The solution I was writing about before turned out temporary (and it is not a true solution as it is spoling the actual function of the Assistant) and even with Voice Match for Assistant being turned off I got the hiss (I guess it got this way after some minor Google app update). This is unnacceptable, especially that it is Google's own core app doing it on a Google phone :/ I might just buy that Oneplus 7T if they don't fix it with October update :/
Oh, I have created an official issue thread on Google's issue tracker. Please star and comment so that they see the bug, thanks: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/141968224

Even when I disabled Voice Match, I still had the hiss while recording video and audio. I still think it is software because there is no hiss using Duo. This hiss only seems to be present when I record video or use the voice recorder. My wife's Pixel 3a doesn't seem to have the issue.

Try the Jan 2020 update. Release notes say they fixed the audio issue with video recording. Worth a shot. "Improvements for audio in video capture."

Edit: source link added

January update fixed the hiss for me.
