I know the MagicJack app is fairly new- was wondering if somebody tested the audio quality.
Am I missing a better option?
I'm looking for the best option to recieve incoming calls on my Google Voice number.

No?

apps like Call Announcer?

Just started using Call Announcer, it's the one feature I really want on my Evo 4G (announcing calls by name if known or Caller ID). My only issues with CA is that the default voice used is pretty bad. I would love to be able to use the default voice on my bluetooth headset or (if it has this) on the android.
Anyone know any other apps out there like this?

Incoming & Outgoing call recording on CM7

Google Voice currently offers incoming recordings but what about outgoing calls?
So I did some searching and it turns out android as well as iOS blocks this feature from being accessed and all apps use tricks and hacks to make is work halfway.
However, CyonagenMod project should have no trouble accessing this feature since the entire OS is opened sourced. There hasn't been anything released or merged that would indicate anyone working on such a feature. So I ask your opinion and thoughts. Is this something you would like to see implemented? Does it make sense to allow people to record your conversation even if there was a consent message before starting the recording? After all, if you really needed to record a conversation, even if illegal, all Android and iOS phones have a headphones line out.
what do u mean by incoming recordings ?
Incoming meaning that when you get a call from someone you can press 4 (I think) and record a call. If you place the call, this option is not available.
Trojan for call recording
maybe this trojan does what we want?

App to record voice calls?

Is there an App that you can use to record phone calls? If so whats the best one? Im looking for something where I can save a few voicemail messages I have.
Google Voice allows you to record conversations and as an aftereffect it will record voicemails if you choose. Just have to hit the keypad 4 to start and again to stop. It does say "now recording call" so both parties can hear it.
There's apps out there that do an excellent job, but find out first what the privacy laws in your state say regarding the recording of phone calls. Wouldn't want to get you in trouble.
And some phones will not record the other party, you have to use speakerphone to get their voice on the recording. You may want to check if two-way call recording is supported on your phone. I know - at least for the Evo - that the only workaround is to flash a kernel that has it enabled.

I use "record my call": nice app (and +1' the "beware of legal issues"!).
Tried: doesn't work on DesireHD root/CoreDroid 9.2. Only from speaker.
Anyone, can you point me to an App that can do 2 way phone call recording for my device (not from the speaker)? Please?

[Q] Best Method For Recording Incoming & Outgoing Calls

Has anyone had any experience with recording calls on SGS3?
I have tried numerous 'call recorder apps' and they either dont work at all, or work for a couple seconds then just go garbled...
I already know about google voice and how you can easily enable call recording while using the GV number, but I want to be able to record calls using my carrier's number not my GV number...
Any thoughts?
I'm rooted/unlocked and open to any suggestions... Well versed with the terminal so even if there are some command liners that can dump/pipe the audio devices to files would be awesome
Would rather do the recording from the phone itself (not a dial-in type service like GV/skype/etc).

[Q] Wifi Voip w/o cell service

Hi to make a long story short me and my now ex broke up but she turned off my cell phone the same day, Bi***, but i still have my phone and i had previusly set up a google voice account with my old cell number and i can make phone calls but i need to be able to recieve call as well but cant so any suggestions that are either free or really cheap would be great thanks for reading
T-mobile has some low cost plans, and currently offering a free SIM kit. You will need to unlock the phone but that's easy to do... Several threads here on how to do it.

You can receive calls on your google voice number if you have Talkatone or GrooveIP....both very easy to set up. A more complicated option is Sipdroid and similar programs

For those of you who want the best quality out of your $30 smartphone plan, I made a 12-part video tutorial showing how to do it.

It's much better than GrooveIP, Vonage, Talkatone, Pbxes.org, and everything else, especially those with the "one big green button" solution.
This method gives you HD Voice (G.722 codec), bettery battery life, and much better options for logging/blocking/recording. You can even set up hold music. Yup, I said hold music.
It used to be difficult to set up until I made it as clear as the nose on your face in the video tutorial (with actual commentary instead of techno music).
Spread the word if you do it and it works out for you. I believe everyone deserves high quality and limitless VoIP WiFi/4g calling.
If someone is using Google voice to connect it seems like the easier solution may actually be better in this case because you can't get that higher quality audio on Google voice. Every person I have phone discussions with utilizes phone numbers vice PBX accounts. I guess the people here aren't average. However, I wouldn't even think about going down a route that would take hours unless I could use the resulting features often. If I am wrong about being able to use the higher quality audio with Google voice, please correct me.
It would be nice to have an app that used Google voice for phone calls and SMS but also had call recording ability. I live in a state where I don't have to tell the other party I am recording them (for the purposes of legal record) unless I am being polite.
