Hi guys,
For me it is indifferent to the platform, while performing well the call recording function. I need this feature for my work.
What phone/OS do you recommend?.
Thx
It's not wise to look at only one single aspects of your need to make decision because you may pay too high a price in the other areas. Anyway if you're really really wanting to only look at this requirement alone, then leave out iPhone because it can only record outgoing call (e.g., with Acrobits Softphone) but not incoming calls. Winmo phones are excellent in this area. Not sure about Android.
Edit: I take it back. I was wrong to say that iPhone can't do it. It can be done with an application by the name of "CallRec.me" mentioned here:
http://forum.tipb.com/iphone-develo...itasking-phone-call-recorder.html#post1568474 It records both incoming and outgoing calls. Be aware of the legal framework of such practice though, but that's out of topic issue here. It's suppose to work not just in US but also outside US. I don't know all the details yet, but hopefully that'll give you a headstart in your investigation.
Cheers.
Thank you very much for your answers.
With any WinMo 6.5 device I can record incoming and outgoing calls? Any device recommendation?
I was using VITO audio note back then. Worked quite well for me. I think it will work on any winmo phone in the market today still.

Now I'm using iPhone 3GS. Then, I was using HTC Touch HD.
I have a Palm Centro, and I've been using the app CallRec for years. I believe it was $20, but you can always pirate it if you're cheap. It runs in the background and records every call to a folder on the SD card, named with the phone number, date, etc. Excellent record quality, and it's actually the only reason I haven't upgraded my phone yet. I love having an archive of all my calls, especially when dealing with lying customer-service reps.
I use G1 now...
Does somebody know if the new FroYo firmware will support call recording?
I'm requesting a phone call recorder that records internally instead of using the mic to record speaker output. A dev has a functional version that works on the Hero:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=806451
but this doesn't work on the Evo. I'm not sure if the method/exploit used to make that work is available on the Evo.
This is something I would be willing to pay for, as I actually have a need for this application. I'd like the app to be able to record these calls discreetly, in that it won't notify the other party that the call is being recorded. The dev could put a disclaimer in the program stating that the app is to only be used for lawful recordings, that the user is responsible for consulting their particular state's/country's laws to be sure their recording is within the limits of the law, and that the the developer bears no responsibility for any misuse of the app.
If anyone is willing to take on this project, or if there's one that exists (I have searched, extensively), please let me know.

Have you seen "phone recorder" on the market its free. Theres also one called "super call recorder" $1.50
Neither of them work, and I believe both are based on raising the speaker volume and just recording mic input. I'm trying to find an app that records internally.

I think a more accurate way to say it would be that neither of them work very well. That being said, I'm also very interested in something like what's being requested because what I've found out there is next to worthless...I would pay a bit for it too. If anybody has any suggestions on something that does work 'well' ( a subjective term I know ) then I'm sure we would all love for you to share!
me too
In fact, I think I have an idea for a workable hack that would sort this out. I would finance an experienced developer to deliver this tool. PM me if you are game.
why not just buy this application?

Did anything come from this? I'm still looking for a solution for my EVO 4G...that works well!

Give this a try, it seems like it works on some phones but not others. Main issue is that with some phones it will record one side of the call but not the other. Hopefully your phone is one of the ones it works properly on.

I think it has to do with the kernel and the actual phone. I've seen posts where some phones work well and some don't. My EVO has not been able to use any app out there to date. I'm always up for trying more...
I use Call Recorder on my EVO, its the app plus an appropriate kernel, currently I am on
MikG 3.11
Loinfish aggressive 1.8 (original version with auto brightness lowered)
I believe freedom kernel and anthrax are compatible. You must find a kernel that clearly states two way call record

Until now, I still don't understand why Android doesn't have a built-in features for missed calls/sms and reject list to auto decline unwanted calls. My old Galaxy S Fascinate has the reject list feature but not in my Galaxy Nexus.
And I used to use Missed Call Reminder but it doesn't work with Jelly Bean. Sigh! JB is awesome but these simple, yet crucial, features are either missing or hard to find ones that work.
Especially the missed call/SMS features, this is a no brainer feature that even a standard cell phone has it. IOS has it, why Android can't just have it built-in. I just don't get it.
Thoughts anyone?

Pretty much everyone I know uses the LED notification light for missed calls and texts, since that's what it was made to do.
I personally don't get calls I don't want, but if you like to post your number online and not pay your bills, there are many, many apps available to block calls for you. Or hell, MIUI has it built in. Take your pick.
So what was the problem again?

I don't know it for sure. but my guess is Apple probably has it patented? From what I understand Google has to deliberately workaround many design challenges so that Android doesn't violate Apple's patents
Apple just filed another lawsuit against Samsung trying to get 22 more phones banned for patent violations. Sigh.

yeah, you could be right. If that's true, then this is yet another ridiculous patent that got passed. Prior to smartphones, every cell phones have these basic features. Sigh.
I understand the Galaxy Nexus has led indicator but I don't usually stare at my phone all day. So I'm used to hearing a reminder tone of any missed call or text. I guess I just have to wait until developers get up to speed with Jelly Bean.
Find an app for it.

Hey buddy read my orig. post, I've tried already. Example, I used to use Missed Call Reminder but like most other apps that are similar, it doesn't work with Jelly Bean. The LED part works, but no tone. Feel free to educate me with ones that works with tone notification.
As per the reject call feature, I end up using the contact list method and send them to voicemail. Not 100% whether this method will cost me some minor air time or not but these solicited calls will hang up by itself, as most of these calls use an auto-dialer. It will only transfer to a live agent if the dialer detects a real human voice, as suppose to a voicemail recording. Not as good as just decline the call completely but it will do for now.

Yes I have but after I read the terms and condition, I don't feel comfortable using it. This app will take all your contacts and store them into their server. Even the paid version does this too. It seems like a very powerful app but I'm not willing to sacrifice my personal information for this feature. I've looked at others and they work similar way. All I want is a similar app that identifies the phone of incoming call and compare it to a local rejected list of numbers. If it matches, then just decline the call. I'm not a developer but I can't imagine that this would be very tough.

I think the only way it stores your contacts is if you use the caller id, which I don't use.

I've heard both sides make that argument. I'm Android through & through, but apple makes a compelling ecosystem. People always say "It just works..." but at what cost? There are apps for everything in both IOS & Android worlds, but as far as I'm concerned, there's less big brother restricting what I can do with my android. Sure, there's some more work at times, but it's completely worth the effort not to be stuck with someone else deciding what apps I can install, and how I have to use my phone.

I know I feel stuck when I get a phone with carrier branded apps that I can't remove. Do you see a difference between these two practices? It seems to me if one wants full control of their phone, one must jailbreak or root. Do you agree or disagree?
Can we skyrocketeers make native video phone calls (not voip / skype)?

Nice thought! Theoretically yes but as long as phone companies meter their data ... No sir aint gonna happen. However, gtalk can be modified to allow video chat or just using Google + but anything other than that I haven't heard of:banghead:

I guess the situation is much worse than i thought over in the USA. There's no problem like that in Europe.
Direct video calls from phone number to phone number over 3G are activated by default in all capable phones software. Video calls are taxed by a separate video calling rate (which doesn't affect skype etc).
You can see for yourself here: http://i40.tinypic.com/2cy5st3.png and here http://goo.gl/Es4dE , notice the extra call button? That's for video calls. :good:
Oh well sucks to have a US phone

Having just spent the morning setting up my new S7 Edge, I got towards the end of the process (i.e. several hours in), and found out that my App Drawer was failing to show all my apps, and other times none at all. This being with Google Now Launcher.
It turns out that this is a known issue both Samsung and Google are aware of, the fault allegedly being Google's, but in any event, one to be aware of. Because if like me, you had set up Knox, even if you don't really need it, then when you Uninstall it, then reboot, you get stuck on a loading screen with the animated word Samsung flashing, for an absolute age - mine's been around twenty five minutes already, and is still sitting there...
So if you don't need Knox, and you use Google Now, then DO NOT install Samsung Knox - your App Drawer will not work, and uninstalling it will cause a huge delay in you getting up and running.
I'm wondering if I should try a forced restart again, or just leave it chugging, for fear of causing corruption.
Grrrrrr!

Not sure how that affects the draw in Google now. That's strange.
To be honest, until there is root and a way to remove knox altogether, I will be using my s5 and using the S7 to play with the vr headset.

When you use a Bluetooth connection the phone DAC has no role at all and all the processing is made by the DAC inside the Bluetooth headset.

So how does this work? I'm not sure what knox is other than tripping it makes it so you can't use samsung pay. And I'd like to use the Google Now Launcher. So I can't have GNL and use samsung pay or it has issues booting, loses the app drawer or what?
I uninstalled Knox no problem. No long restart.
I don't even have Knox on my phone. There is an app on the Samsung market for it, but its not installed on my phone. Maybe I'm just missing something, but I can't find a Knox app.

I was given the option to install it at the end of the initial set up. I installed and set up Knox then later uninstalled it with no problems like OP had.
