Hi Experts,
I use HTC Incredible S and looking for native video calling feature which is not available in default calling feature in the Android itself, since the hardware itself supporting video calling.
I thought it will be addressed in the new updates 2.3, but there is not any features which can help in video call.
I posted HTC for this problem, but replied me to wait till next update which is not fixed and they are not sure if this will be addressed. They adviced to use Skype, but I dont want to use any third party application or anything to make video call to make it more expensive & more difficult.
I wish there could be an answer in this XDA forum, so you experts can help me in this. Pls giude if is there any custome updates available. I will be greatful to you for all your help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sajid Ali
Hi
I need a call recorder for my galaxy s i9000, would you please help me?
thank you
any one?
Please search before opening a new thread. You need a custom kernel and a recorder app. All this is in your devices section. Also please be aware of any of your local laws as some places you have to tell people you are recording them before you start doing it.

I was doing research on android's Biometric authentication .As we know back in android Marshmallow(6.x.x) we got native support for fingerprint recognition/fingerprint authentication.Not too long samsung started giving new way to unlock devices iris scanner in s8/s8+ last year,so it's there own implementation in S/W and so main problem is you cant use their implementation in any custom rom because AOSP upstream does not supports it.Now from Android Pie onwards they deprecated FingerprintManager API and bring us new BiometricPrompt API,means we can use other methods like iris,face recognition and other methods for unlock/authentication.Probably iris or face recognition might come in coming pixel.
So my main point of making this post is to discuss about the existing device with proprietary sensors like in galaxy s8/s8+/s9/9+,note8/9,mi8,poco f1 etc etc! .
Will we able to get those existing sensors work on custom roms?as far source code is concerned ,we got whole device code of POCO f1(i am not sure about IR face reco).
one thing i want mention:-i remember galaxy s5 released with android 4.4.x,which clearly dont have FingerPrintManager Api,but some smart dev xda managed to get that sensor working on android M based custom ROM .Sooooo maybe we will able to get our,s face IR working in next iteration of android pie.
I am learning about the android"s arch(also learning how to develop custom roms from scratch)
So devs on xda who have knowledge ,must share .i am always ready to learn
topics i refer for case study:-

Bro you are new member, so don't have permission to post, go read xda's rules and terms of XDA. And secondly do a Google search for your problems and stop spamming irrelevant replies
Please!

Who are you to tell him what to do xda is about sharing tech knowledge there is nothing wrong in posting by new member. He giving his knowledge i had question with his argument above i got my answer. If you cant let other not demotivate.

If have you anything related to my topic then most welcome.
And who "ARE" you to correct me.
I didn't say anything offensive to him and secondly i told him to read to rules and terms.
And yea i was not demotivating him, its you who judging here.now stop arguing.
Please :- "STICK WITH THE TOPIC!"

Correction: we do not have whole device code. Nobody ever gets whole device code.
We have kernel source, but it is missing something. Mostly audio and wifi stacks. Wifi is easy to fix thanks to CAF, but audio is more difficult.
Making custom ROM's takes time because it is one big experimental process to get AOSP to work with existing blobs (pre-built binaries from vendor for hardware access) because we don't have the source code.
For IR Face recognition, there would have to be a driver in kernel for the camera, definitely. But that doesn't make it a given that custom ROMs can use it. It may also be missing in kernel sources, like wifi and audio is missing.
Ideally, when Poco gets Pie official update, yes - it will use the biometrics API, meaning that custom ROM's should be able to interface with stock blobs to also support it - this is achieved in much the same way as experimenting to get all the other hardware working. But it's impossible to know for sure until actual official Pie comes.
Most of this stuff relies on CAF, probably. If the kernel driver for the IR camera is found, or included in kernel source (don't know if it is but my guess is no), then they will have something to work on.
I think it's a bit early to speculate on such things now, since there is no public announcement from the community of any AOSP release based on Oreo yet, even.

i was wandering around and testing some things with this device.
Yes! That ir receiver(sensor) IS behaving as camera (which is not a color sensor only takes IR as input)
For testing i used miui hidden settings app
Go to hardware test(CIT)>52.ir camera.
And voila! You can see output on screen what this sensor sees
NOTE:- you can open this CIT settings if you tap kernel version number times, but you won't get that "ir camera" option, soooo you have to install that app
Btw anyone working or creating device tree for this device?
Well yea xiaomi is notorious for not giving up whole source, that's kinda bytuh thing

Did you perhaps had some time to look in to this ?
If they used this api in the latest pie beta ?
i read something om miui forums that they used the biometrics API in miui 10 pie versions from other phones.
i'm lacking the knowledge to look in to this myself :/

I'm not sure where to look, to be honest. This seems more like a back-end thing that makes development easier, rather than adding new features? At least that's what I remember.
Also note that I have no interest in custom ROM's personally; I'm modding stock MIUI instead.
Hi guys, I'm looking for an up-to-date Rom for my little-used Xperia XZ Premium, which absolutely supports native call record. Can anyone help me? The device still has the standard Android 9. Many greetings
this should be posted in q/a. this subforum is for development.
Sorry, registered for a long time but never been active. Can you recommend a rom with call record?
Hi,
I'm trying to record phone calls as .wav files but I want to record the other side only. I tried using Axet's Call Recorder, but I have many issues with it. I installed the recorder as a system app in /system/priv-app and gave it all permissions. However, I noticed that no matter what source I choose (be it "voice line", "auto" or "system RAW"), it always picks up my mic and the recording would be silent if I hit mute. I have seen other apps that supposedly give you more control over what is recorded but I have yet to find one that works as intended. My solution must: 1. record the actual audio output completely digitally and be purely the "downlink" side only, i.e. what plays through the earpiece/speaker but at the level before it actually plays, and 2. be compatible with all android versions regardless of what permissions it may need.
First, I'd like to know what the source should actually be - the digital source for the output audio that guarantees purity and highest quality.
Second, I'd like to know if there is an app that does just that or otherwise what do I need to create one myself.
Keep in mind full root access is available and modding too.
Any help is appreciated tremendously!
