[Q] [GSM] Native Phone Call Recording Function for the Galaxy TAB

I've been searching the market and most forums for a good phone call recording application, but it seems somebody has already integrated this into the ROM of the Samsung I9000
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967297
by modifying the phone.apk and others. As such the phone will NOW NATIVELY SUPPORT CALL RECORDING, without installing additional apps.
Seeing the correlation between I9000 and the P1000 Galaxy Tab, can this be ported over to the TAB, so we can now have native call recording function?

i also waiting for this...

this is my one and only BUMP to try to generate info to this thread.

sure , anything else perhaps you like ?
USE THE GOD DAMN APP FROM THE MARKET ...

New Skype with video support!

Anyone try this out? Does it work? If so, what rom are you running, and did you need to change anything?
Link here.

I'm at work but I'm really curious; Skype says it will work with *some* 2.2 devices, and if you have 2 cameras the wrong camera will work but we have only one camera so we might be in luck.
Fingers crossed...

Just installed it.. Will try it out!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

I tried it briefly in Vegan tab 5.1.1.
-Everything aside from video calling seemed to operate well. This includes voice calls.
-The video call function was not available in the settings menu.
When I read through the skype announcement I noticed that it will only show video of rear facing camera's in froyo. Can the front facing camera be spoofed to work like a rear facing camera?

Yes, I think it can. I recall when trying to get Yahoo Messenger working for video calls, some genius developer modified the Yahoo app to add a "swap cameras" button. It worked, but the video was always transmitted and displayed sideways.
My fingers are crossed that it works out of the box, even if it's only in Froyo. This would get me to (sadly) downgrade from GtabComb.
Tested with ROMs:
- VEGAn-TAB 5.1.1 - No video option. Darn it.
- CM 7.0.3 (Stable) - No video option
- I wanted to try it on Clemsyn-Caulkin v5, but the keyboard was acting funky after loading that ROM. Pressing any numbers acted like I was pressing the BACK button. Weird. I might try it again later.

Skype has said that with 2-camera Froyo devices only the rear camera will work. We have only one camera, so here's hoping...

I'm under the impression that our front camera is actually the "rear" camera according to the system.
There is only an API for one camera by default, it wasn't until Gingerbread that they started differentiating between a front and rear camera. That's why older apps work with only certain front facing cameras- the developer had to figure out how to call the front camera on each device individually since it wasn't a standard system function.
This is why ReelPortal works on our tablets- Adobe Air (which the app was written in) recognizes only the rear camera currently, so most tablets can't be used for chatting with it. But on the G-tablet (and certain Archos tablets), there is only one camera and the system recognizes it as "the" camera.
I would assume that any app which uses the camera would see our front camera as the system camera (a.k.a rear camera). That has been my experience with market apps that use the camera, at least.
I think there is some other reason the video option is disabled. I just tried installing skype on an Optimus S as well (budget android phone with only a rear camera, also running froyo), and the option is not there either.
Skype says "Unfortunately, if you cannot see the video calling settings, it means your Android phone does not meet the minimum requirements needed to make Skype video calls". That's ridiculous. It looks like someone needs to rip open the app and find out where that restriction is.
This is beyond my realm of hacking ability. Anyone with skills willing to look at this?

Hey I found these posts while digging through a few different threads and thought i would leave it here for other G-Tab users who are following this thread. Thanks Dishe for asking all the questions in the other forums. Unfortunately it's not looking so hot for skype video calling on the G-Tab at this point. I will keep watching patiently hoping that someday it will work.

Yes- just to update everyone, here's what I found out.
Skype chose to use something called the NEON instruction set for hardware-based acceleration of video encoding / decoding. Problem is, not every mobile processor supports this instruction set (usually lower end hardware, like my LG Optimus). The Tegra 2 does not support NEON at all, and that is why our tablets don't offer the video option, and the ones that are hacked to work (by skipping the device check) will just crash after trying to sign in.
So, it is currently not possible for Skype to work on the G-tablet as long as they are pushing NEON acceleration.
This is the first time I've ever been upset to have a Tegra. All this time I actually wanted the G-tab BECAUSE of the high end Tegra2 for such an inexpensive tablet.
Why Nvidia left out support for this (while other CPUs include it) is beyond me, but on the plus side there is hope for the future. The Tegra2 is used in a lot of high end tablets these days, including the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, Acer Iconia, Moto Xoom, etc... Right now Skype won't work on any of them, and I'm sure the company does not intend to alienate such a large portion of tablet customers. When they get supported, so will we.
Meanwhile, someone posted in one of the other threads about a CES demo this past year in which NVIDIA and Skype showed off HD video calling hardware using what they call "Skypekit" framework to build an app on a Tegra-based demo tablet.
So, stuff is coming folks. We just have to wait it out I guess, as there is nothing that can be done now.

I wonder if Skype does a hardware test or just a device check; maybe we can set the device ID or use some other trick to fool the software into thinking our gTabs are worthy.

Read the post right about yours. It will crash because the Tegra CPU does not have the instruction set it needs. I've tried it.

Thanks for the info everyone. I was hoping to surprise the girlfriend abroad with a hacked apk to get skype to work, but I guess ooVoo will have to do for now.

Oovoo messes up my sound everytime. I've had good results with reelportal tho.

I have droid charge, I use skype everyday and it is so annoying to flip the phone to see the other person. Tegra chip wise everything is clear but how about the droid charge? Can any dev find workaround for this nonsense? I am willing to support that dev and donate some beer money.

This discussion is about the G-tab.
For other devices, there are threads here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153285

If you have architecture capable of NEON, one of those versions should let the software access the front camera.

So..if we are on 2.3 and have this device...are they saying it will work then? Getting my Tab in 2 days. It already has 2.3 on it.

New version of skype (v2) supports videocalling in tegra devices such as Asus Transformee or Xoom.
I'll test as soon as I get home if it works for the Gtablet.

Still no video call support
I just tested the new version of skype (version 2.5.0.108 downloaded from market) on my Gtab running Brilliant Corners 1.3.1 and there was still no video call option. I will keep playing with it and see if I missed anything obvious.

You have to activate the videocall options on settings first.
I tested it on honeycomb flashback rom but as the camera doesn't work on our honeycomb roms yer the test was useful, lol.
Please check on settings that videocalls are enabled and test back on your brilliant corner roms.
However it would be nice if someone using a gingerbread rom can test it

Thanks. I missed that and didn't change the settings.
When I changed the settings to accept video calls it worked. It was very buggy tho. The video came in clear, but it was rotated sideways (flipping the gtab on its side wasn't enough to fix the problem). The video I received also covered all the buttons for ending the call/muting the microphone etc. This made it difficult to end the call without guessing where the button would be underneath the incoming video. Also, when I exited the skype app while in a video call, the application closed but the video stayed on top. This made it impossible to do anything else while having a video chat going on in the background.
Overall this is a huge step forward. Video calls with audio are now working. I can't give extensive reviews on video quality, as I was only calling myself from my laptop to my gtablet and didn't spend much more time than was needed to see if it worked.
Some work will definately be needed to iron out some of the bugs before this becomes perfectly useable. For now I am happy with the progress that has been made and will wait patiently for someone smarter than me to work out the bugs.
Gtab running Brilliant Corners 1.3.1
---------- Post added at 11:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------
After playing with skype for a little while longer, I noticed that skype is placing the video from the Gtab over the video from skype.
Let me try explain.
In a normal skype call, you have the large video from the person you are talking too taking up most of the screen. In one of the corners you have a video of yourself that is being sent to the other person. This video is rotated sideways when I hold the Gtab in landscape mode with the camera on top.
When I use the skype for android app on my Gtablet (brilliant corners 1.3.1), I get a third video laid overtop of the other two videos. The video is the same as the small one of myself in the bottom corner of the video chat, but with the correct orientation. I know that the other two video's exist (outgoing and incoming that normally exist in skype) because there is some space beside the 3rd video.
If that was confusing, let me try explain a different way: It's as if the video camera application is running over top of skype whenever I am in a video call. The 'video camera app' is persistantly on top whenever I am in a video call. It will even stay on top when I close the skype application during a video call.
I failed to notice this during my initial testing, as I had the gtab and laptop pointing at me, and failed to differentiate which video feed I was seeing.
I think the app would be perfect if the following were fixed.
-Outgoing video rotation is fixed.
-video being captured on gtab was not over top of the video's skype is recognizing.
Has anyone on different ROM's experienced these problems? I don't feel like going through the hassle of changing ROM's to test.

[Q] call recording

Anybody know how to record a call on Xperia SP? I tried so meny different apps but no success...

If the kernel don't support it you can't record the call.

So? What about SP kernel? Supports recording or not?
I have interesting experience with different apps. Sometimes my voice is OK and the other side is soooo quiet, sometimes my side is OK and the other voice is sooo distorted...

I test all apps for call recording in sp, and finally found best of them
Stock kernel basically don't allow two way call recording, but there is one add-on that make it possible
Just do this:
Download and install call recorder and find ALSA add-on for call recorder
Then choose ALSA as recording method(root required) and BINGO.....
record all call like a charm

[Q] [9001] Galaxy S+ 2way call recording

Hi lads.
I'm looking for a kernel for our SGS+ which supports 2way call recording.
I remember when on HTC [email protected] with GB I had this feature. Recordings were superb quality - not like those conversations recorded "over-the-air". This was really recorded straight from voice codec/hardware.
Does anyone know if at present any kernel supports this feature?
I was able to find something on Sony, HTC Magic, Desire.
I see there was an attempt to set it up on i9000: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967297
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=863074
Author of the rVoix software - avs333 has his site on google: http://code.google.com/p/rvoix/source/browse/#svn/branches/snapdragon/kernel/desire_hd which contains code for Desire HD which has same Snapdragon as i9001. Maybe someone will know how to implement it.
PS. I know it's illegal in some countries.
Thanks.

[Module][UNITY] FooView x Magisk - Internal/System Audio Recording Oreo/Pie

FooxMagisk Alpha[ v0.2.2/SIZE]​
×WHO:
FxM is aimed at Android users in search of an easy way to capture system or internal sounds (systemless-ly), and on Android versions past Lollipop. By installing my module users will no longer need to worry about background noise from their environment.
×WHAT:
FooView, an app by fvalpha, comes from the same dev behind ES File Explorer nearly a decade ago. Development is ongoing, but in essence, FV supplies the user with a range of controls outside of screen recording. Be sure to visit their thread.
×WHY:
Some time ago someone inquired about the possibility, which led us to trying other means before quitting. Recently I found FV and gave it a spin. Plus, others are frustrated by the absence of native recording on most devices. Whilst I've experimented with other techniques on Oreo & Pie, none come close.
×HOW:
The real reason you're here! First of all, in order use this module I strongly recommend Magisk 18+. It was used on 18, so can't guarantee the results on older versions. If there's demand, a test for 17 can be made.
×Prerequisites:
- Magisk 18+
- Grab fooView Play Store
- Download/Install FxM module from below
×Links
- All Releases
×Steps:
- Follow above
- Reboot after installing
- Check app info (foo can now be disabled, instead of uninstalled)
- Open foo -> Settings -> Advanced settings -> Dev Mode -> Enable "root for screenshots" -> Grant -> Enable "Record internal"
- Enable little MIC icon BEFORE recording
- Adjust media volume to < 40% (Volume bug on some devices)
×Credits:
- @fvalpha - Developer of fooView
- @topjohnwu - Magisk
- @ahrion - Unity Installer
- @Zackptg5 - Unity Installer

×Bugs
- Using high volume creates a tick sound on certain devices
- If Module is installed FIRST the app will crash constantly
×Revision History
v0.1a - Jan 18, 2019 - Initial Release (Unity v3.1 + 0.9.9.9)
v0.2.2a - Jan 21, 2019 - (Unity v3.2 + Perms fixed)
v0.2.3a - Jan 25, 2019 - (Removed unnecessary perms)
×Compatibility:
- LOS 15.1 (8.1)
- AICP 13 (8.1)
- AICP 14 (9.0)
×Devices:
- Le Pro 3
- Moto Z2
- Whyred
- Pocophone F1
Further testing is necessary to extend this list
×FAQ:
Q: Can I hear speaker audio whilst recording internal sounds?
A: No, not at this time. And likely never. It's a limitation in the API.
Q: Sound doesn't play when recording!
A: This is normal. Maybe simultaneous internal/external recording will be doable in Android Q.
Q: Fooview crashes!
A: This happens when Foo module is installed before the base app.
Q: Why is there no sound in my recording?
A: Turn on the microphone icon that's shown in fooview.
Q: Is root needed?
A: Yes!
Q: Watermark in videos?
A: This can be disabled in settings.

Did you follow all the steps? In foo there's a permission section, first 3 need to be enabled when installing the app. After rebooting only floating window is needed really.

Sound from the speaker stops whenever foo records. Make sure mic is enabled in the screen recorder, there's going to be a little mic icon. Like here:

No, because Android doesn't support system recording natively. You'd have to record your voice from another device and merge the waveforms. It's not possible to record MIC & system simultaneously, unless it's done on a Samsung or Xiaomi device.
This is meant for people that DON'T want sounds from their mic. Internal recording isn't possible without root after lollipop, and game audio from a microphone sounds awful.

It's a limitation of the the app at this time (fooview), not the module. I don't know if the Dev will add that functionality in the future. There's another Android app that can record internal sound, I'm trying to create a module for it too.

Sorry to ask this basic question. Where is best use of this module. Can this be used alongside screen video recorder so that WhatsApp video calls can be recorded.

1. It's meant to record system audio. My buddy needs that for games. I guess there are other uses like recording calls, but I never considered it.
2. I've never tried this on WhatsApp, nor any app like it. I don't know if WA even allows recorders.
It only needs to be installed, nothing else it required.

excellent thread and mind blowing work, this is what i have been searching for since a long time, it works great but only problem is i can't hear anything while recording internal sound, but it records internal sound. well it works though !

There seems to be no way to achieve this on any Android version after LP (internal + MIC). Samsung, Xiaomi, and LG feature native recording in their skins so it's a different story. For example, my sister's Stylo can do both on Nougat.
For unknown reasons Google doesn't want apps to contain this functionality (also true of call recording apps). It's odd since Apple's position is the complete opposite...

The microphone is there. It's needed for internal audio, the speaker won't output any sound.
I prefer this one for its ability to alter FPS (25 - 60).
