Since there is a temptation to use open wifi sources with our phones, I was wondering if there is a firewall program that can protect the phone from the network it is connected to?
Also, does there exist a good call recorder program? Particularly one that you can set to record automatically based on caller id. I.e. if a call comes in (or is made) from a particular phone number as soon as the call is connected the recording starts.
Short answer no & no.
Unfortunately call recording in general sucks. I've only heard of apps that work with speaker phone. I'm told it's an os level design decision.

Yeah, could you imagine the problems if phone companies allowed anyone to record voice conversations.
I was about to argue with you and then I realized what you did. Nice.
I have a new Lumia 1020 ATT branded, with firmware version 3045. I'm experiencing some issues:
- The only app able to record audio is "Nokia Pro Cam", or the new "Nokia Camera". All the other apps can't. This means that i can't make audio notes, i can't send whatsapp voice messages, etc.
- Calls works ok until i switch to speaker mode. In speaker mode nobody hears me
Would it be a hardware problem?

Does it get worse when you lock/unlock your screen or there is activity in your phone? Also, can you still hear it when not making a call or not playing a sound?
i hear it ONLY when i make a call, activity on screen or phone don't do anything
try turning off VoLTE and and see if it makes a difference.
VOLTE should be in call settings? i don't have it, maybe in my country i have only internet LTE, not VOLTE, anyway i can't find this in english language and my national..
i can say also that when i remove nano sim from phone and try to make a call, in this 3 seconds after call go down i hear this sound too.
if i can switch off volte like quick settings -> icon LTE and disable it isn't work
i try to change network mode and on all (WCDMA,GSM,LTE) its the same - nth works.

Some device's DAC generates a low white noise to prevent discomfort, I dont know if thats the case since I didn't receive my device yet. Try making a call with skype or gTalk, Facebook or listen a voice message in whatsapp via the earpiece (just cover the proximity sensor to send audio to earpiece).
I might be having a similar problem. My speakers are fine while playing music/videos, but during calls every time a noise is made (but not during silence!) there's a fuzzy sound in the background. Almost as if the process of generating sound causes it.
Mazbot i don't must try on other app, i can just go settings->about phone->diagnostic->->test device->ear speaker and i hear this to, i check in service menu by *#*#7378423#*#* -> still the same
( btw in service menu we can check our waterproof -> go pressure sensor, put it on desk, when phone is waterproof numbers will growing when u press phone by hand , if not number will be the same)
msxghost i ask my friend about that, and he told me that he have the same effect.. but i did'nt check by my own
i don't send phone to service, they probably broken it more or DHL do it, heh but only in my country probably
nice in poland where i live this phone cost 1 good salary and things like this, i trust sony again after my xperia s, where wasn't be systems update.. never sony again
Initial Title: Disabling Voice Privacy Option on LG G3 D850, how?
Hello mates .
Call Quality and Volume are not being good so far, and i saw people saying to turn off "Voice enhancement, Noise Suppression, and Voice Privacy", well the thing is... Where's Voice Privacy option in this model? :S, is there any way to make it visible by changing anything on build.prop or other file? "just like when on build.prop we change the line ro.build.target_operator from "ATT" to "OPEN" and more options become visible on the network options just like being able to choose between 2g/3g/4g, that by default is a hidden option in this model".
Don't think it's faulty device because hearing music on the in-call speaker is working without problems, and recording voice is also good.
Please help me, it's frustrating having a phone BAD in Phonecalls .
Best Regards

Title: Bad Call Quality/Volume on LG G3 D850, any fix?
Messing around a little bit more i found out how to add Voice Privacy Option on D850, but i don't recommend because it's useless, that option is only on CDMA mode and as D850 doesn't have CDMA you can be sure that just like happened to me your SIM won't be recognized anymore on your phone and you'll have to factory reset/full wipe all, so Forget it really!
About the bad quality/volume on calls, since front speaker hears good on listening to music and recording voice, maybe a software or hardware problem "in Kit Kat i noticed it was worse than Lollipop" but even on Lollipop quality and Volume are still bad, so i wanna ask you: any fix for this bad call quality?, and: what is the name of the object on smartphones, that works like an antenna for the calls?, because maybe it can be a faulty piece being fixable by replacing with a new one.
Best Regards

It was be under calling or phone under settings. And depends on what you mean by bad call quality. That normally is an issue with the mic or network issue

Thanks for answering.
Yes but the thing is that the Option Voice Privacy seems to be a not 'visible' setting on this model "just like the changing 2g/3g/4g Network, but was visible after changes in build.prop" :S.
Bad quality - It should be more clear, loud, and it seems like it's trying to suppress noise even without that option activated".
Network has maximum signal, and mic records well on Voice Recording so it should do fine also on calls i think :S.
PS: also heard about Hd Voice and presets on phonecalls, where's those options at in this model?.
I have a huawei p10 lite and recently people couldnt hear me well when talking on the phone. I checked via voice/video recording, whatsapp calling, using loud speaker etc and found out that main mic has problems, but secondary mic located on the top records good and clearly. So is there any app, mod or something I can do to make the secondary mic default for normal call speaking? I have warranty but where I live companies are crap, I am certain they will just say you broke it since I even tried it in front of them for call quality etc and it was ok back than.
