Months back, I was on the Droid X and posted a similar request. Now I am posting it here since I'm on the Bionic.
Anyway, the request is simple. I need an app that will record FM radio. There are some lectures that I go to that transmit on FM. An FM recording app would allow me to record them for later review without any of the surrounding noise being mixed in. Does anybody know of an app? If not, would anybody be willing to develop one?
I certainly welcome any input on the subject. Thanks in advance.

Hello Folks,
I am searching the forum and the web but I do not get anywhere with my question:
Now I know the FRYO does not have FM Transmitter support, is there any other ROM or any way to get the tansmitter to work?
Thanks a lot for all your help and to the guys making the FROYO availale!
Cheers!

It has not been implemented, and someone would have to create the drivers needed to activate it, so you not gonna see that feature if at all.
Mods will move this to question and answer forum in 3-2-1....
If you have a motor cliq you can use handler rom from functional radio apk.
I'm actually suprised nobody gas taken the motor driver and at least derived a conceptual driver format or something.
Then again, if I searched the forums before asking I would probably find out why that isn't going to work as a starting block.
Want a free 2gb dropbox that syncs to your Android?

During I/O one of the google engineers suggested the easiest way to get fm radio is to pull the drives off the incredible, and piece it together.
What a pity - I really thought this would be something which comes out soon - well I think I am wrong. Maybe I am a minor thinking this is a real cool feature...
Thanks a lot for the replies - as I am not a software engineer I will have to wait.
Cheers!

He said someone like cyanogen should be able to.
Since google voice isnt integrated into the messages app like it should be, can someone please develop and app that will do this? iPhone already has it and its not a google product lol... Would be an amazing addon!
this will be really cool. Lets see if someone can do anything about it
I would also like to see this!
You may have better luck getting a dev to pick this up if you post it in the general android apps forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=530
This question applies to the Samsung Galaxy Note (not the Note II), the SGH-T879 distributed by Tmobile.
Pardon me if this is a ridiculous question or if it is posted in a wrong forum; I know so little about these things.
I got the Note (referenced above) several months ago. I have beaten my head against a wall trying to get it to record both sides of a conversation within the phone -- without having to use speakerphone -- with no success.
I've tried many call recording programs, even ones with great reviews, and I think my problem is that Android versions later than 2.3.5 have blocked direct access to the firmware or hardware (not sure exactly which applies here). I have no experience with programming or development and don't want to learn. So here's my question: What would it cost to get someone to write a custom ROM that will allow the call recording programs to work properly? Or is that even a practical consideration at all?
Please, no suggestions on trying call recording programs or the moral or legal implications. Let's just stick to the question about the custom ROM.
Pffft! Whatever wrong forum.

Some of the Custom ROM in Development section has Call Recording Option, Did you try any of those Rom.
For example "Saurom-Projekt The_Hybrid 'Inovation' edition| AROMA" has call Recording. I have not used this rom but i just looked under the change log and it says it has Call Recording.

I think its safe to say that 98% of all Dev's on xda dont do this for money so I think just flat out paying somebody to do this is out. second you make a point of saying you refuse to learn to do it yourself which a lot of people would agree goes against the very spirit and intention of this site. Ya gotta be willing to learn if thats what it takes to make things happen the way you want! I hope ya have luck finding your answer though!
Yea, I'm using Saurom-Projekt, and it records fine unless you are using a bluetooth headphone. That coupled with an app (I use Sanity) gives me automatic incoming and outgoing call recording.

you obviously haven't tried call recorder by skvalex... Been using it for almost a year. Best 10 dollars ever spent. of course there is one thing you have to do on the note to get it to work but you clearly stated you don't want to learn or didn't want any program suggestions.

Okay, I get it. This forum is for developers who help developers; but, I need a solution sooner than the years it would take me to learn how to program. I've never programmed. I've never been in the same room with a programmer, as far as I know.

I have no idea what some of those words mean. I have no idea how to choose a ROM that would both enable my phone to record calls and that would be compatible with my hardware, I understand there are several versions of the i717 and ROMs for one aren't necessarily compatible with others and I have no idea how to choose the correct one. Then there is the problem that the terms I've read in the ROMs' capabilities/descriptions frequently have no meaning to me. I'm lost in China and I don't speak Chinese.
I've tried this kind of thing before and what usually happens is that people try to help and I think they give up and go away in their own frustration trying to help someone who is clueless even about the words they use when trying to help me. It's very frustrating.

So, after having expressed my frustrations and made it clear I'm a non-developer asking questions that only a developer would understand the answers for, what is this "one thing" I have to do, v3rsatile23?

Alex, you have to learn. You have to do your own studying. No one here on XDA has the time to do all the work for you - you have to understand how to flash something, how to recover if you do and something goes awry, how to deal with testing - no one else here can do that for you.
XDA is a volunteer run Development forum - it isn't here to teach basic uses. Please keep reading and don't do anything until you're fully up to speed. Now, before the flames start, I'm closing this thread.
Hy guys,
I am an electronic engineer and I have created a wristband that he can read fingers gesture and he can talk by bluetooth with any electronics device. I thought about smartwatches. With my wristband you can do everything like answer a call, change song, change page..and all of this just with simple gesture finger.
I want to hear what do you think about that and if really you will like to use our product.
The next step it s to search people to test our product!
Thanks
I'm down to test it! That sounds amazing!
Do you have a video?
hi
Hello i want know please is that for tizen or android rom?tks
Awesome
I would like to test it out.
Sounds very interesting.
Hi
I m very happy that you are interested!
Now we are developing the prototype and if you want we can keep in touch by mail!!
I will send you news about our product!
Let me know!
Thanks
I would also be interested in testing. Keep us posted
I am interested in testing

Hello
I've recently bought a Pixel 7, very glad to have it.
I'm planning to root it in order to have access to native call recording.
Which would be the better option ?
1- Skavalex with root with premium version
2- BCR mod with Magisk module,
3- Google dialer mod with Magisk module
Thanks for the feed back
They all work well, but in my opinion SKVALEX is the best
BCR is the correct way to go on this.
skavalex is closed source and from a nobody developer, therefore you don't know "what else" it might be doing, and there is nobody to hold to account if something terrible happens.
Gooble dialer mod is good (a) if you actually use gooble dialer, and (b) if you don't mind manually pressing a button to start recording.

Wow... Skavalex is actually a developer who has been updating his app for well over a decade and is very quick to respond with help when contacted. When I first started using his app back in the Froyo/GB android days his thread here on XDA was very active for his app. Paid the 9.99 for the app back in 2008 and even donated several times on top of it for all use I get out of it. I know I am not the only person here on this forum who uses his app and hate to see someone bad mouth a very good dev.
+1 for Skavalex

You can do whatever you like, but closed source software cannot be proven safe and therefore should not be trusted.

I guess everyone here who's not on linux on their PC's should be uninstalling Windows and MACOS based on your logic. @skvalex is a trusted developer of the XDA community and a member 8 years longer than you. Coming and flaming on a dedicated community dev for having closed source for an app with awesome premium features that aren't found in other apps, that actually listens to it's users for adding new features. He could've changed the premium app cost or even worse, started charging annually for updates as so many other apps have done. If you're worried about an app being open or closed source, why not just pay $30 a month and get Ooma Office which comes with call recordings. I did that recently as I don't have phones I can root currently.
Closed source apps that have a license to use, aren't bad. The reason you have a closed source app is so people can't just pirate your work.
I had Skvalex on my previous phones, I bought the license many years ago.
Tried to make it work on my P7 as well, but I couldn't. I gave it all the permissions and settings it wanted but still had no sound in the recordings.
Is it because I have no root on this phone? Or should it work without root as well?
Btw now I use the Cube ACR and it works great so far.
This past weekend I installed LineageOS 20 on my recent P7.
One of the reasons why I installed LineageOS was for the native recording of calls, something very important to me and that I missed from my Xiaomi phones with xiaomi.eu rom. However, do you know if there is a way that it can be set to record all calls BY DEFAULT? Currently you have to activate it in each call you make with the phone.

Hmm, yeah. Delete the ms/apple crap. Couldn't agree more.
As for "longer than me"... you have no idea who I am, where I've been, what I've done. Same as any other random handle you find on any web forum. Doesn't matter how long that handle has been in use, you don't know who they are, what they've done, who they work for.
@atillaahun yes, you'll have to root your phone - "thanks" to the google. Anyway, + for Skvalex's Call Recorder.
