flashlight alerts froyo

This is a very cool app that could even be considered an accessability option, it uses the flash to alert for calls & msgs I used it with 2.1 and it even worked on some 2.2 roms also, I dunno maybe his girl won't put up with his devvin but he replied to my email saying he didn't have time to fix it but he will post the code somewhere so somebody else can pick it up... both versions were paid apps (both I bought)
If he sends me a link ill post it...
If somebody happens to fix it let me know ;-)

kinda a bump but not really
I haven't heard from the dev and didn't find anything with a quick google, I'm suprised there aren't more deaf/hearing impared people, people working in loud enviroments, etc
It also alerts you to calls from a distance even when you can't hear the ringtone.
Maybe nobody is intrested enough, it worked on a few nightlys but hasent worked for a while now, maybe its an easy fix, but for me its an almost impossible.
Doesn't the powers that oversee android want to add as many accessibility features as possible?

[Q] Call recording?

I was wondering if devs know if it is possible to implement call recording on our X8s. Is it hardware limited? I've been reading about this and it seems that almost no android phones can do this

Good question I'm exciting to the answer

Questions go to the Q&A section!

You can find many apps that can record your call conversation, just look at the market.

AllCallRecorder is one of them, and it worked like a charm when I use it . I don´t know if it still working on my current ROM, but as it is free, everybody should try it

Most of them, if any, don't work.

It doesn't work. It only records my voice and not the other party's.

Try 2-Way Call Recorder,
It's free and it record both sides during the call. It working fine on gingerDX

I've just tried it. It doesn't seem to be able to record without using the speakerphone

Hey Dexter,
thought you knew that [Q] threads are for Q&A forum
Thread moved

I kind of thought it would fit better in the dev forum as this is not something that can be done through apps.

I have already let stay in development forums 2 other [DISCUSSION] threads from you because i thought that they have inside somewhat of development but i cannot leave there any kind of thread only because they speak about dev, Q&A is the right place.
My orders as a moderator are to move every thread to Q&A that doesn' implement anything but development, such ROMS, Modules; scripts.

ok, gotcha.

I get a strange way to record phone conversations with the application vRecoder. I think that the loud sound of my voice dynamics falls into the microphone. Companion heard bad at writing, but audible. Better anything than nothing.

can you upload the application ??

Hi!
I've tried several programs and does not work, only my own voice recorded.
But! The original Sony Ericsson 2.1 ROM is fully able to pad sharp 2-Way recording, even with the headset as well.
The 2.2 ROM and the rest is not working
The solution I am also very interested because this function does not only want to stay at the 2.1 ROM.
Sorry for knowledge of English, but translation

U'll find which one better!

try an app called total recall

If you find an app that can record both sides please post here.
I've tried a few of them but only the one app from market, that said is made for xperia, worked. And only on stock ROM.

I am still looking for it but so far I did not find anything

i also tried many but none of them worked perfectly. all recorders failed to record. the listening speaker voice. just records my voice. in stock 2.1 i didnt had this problem.

search on apktop,i think i saw it there the other day

I believe it's a ROM issue.
or perhaps kernel.
It worked with stock ROM and stock kernel, but it didn't work with custom ROM and stock kernel.
but even with stock kernel and stock ROM only one app (among all apps I tested) managed to record both sides with no problem.
What I want to say is, if we want to have working call recording, some of our great devs should have interest to make it possible in kernel/ROM building.
But this is not something a lot people use and call recording is forbidden in some countries (as I understood), so there is not a big interest to get it fixed.
I personally would like to have that option but I don't think I would use it if I had it.

WhatsApp& Hangouts Notification problem...

Dear xda users,
I have quiet some time a problem getting notification message in whatsapp and hangouts (even in the previously version on Google talk).
When i clear all apps with Task Manager. Exit to home screen. meaning, Whatsapp is not running in the background, I get no pushed messages, no notifications. Nothing at all.
I then launch the app and get all my "missed" message ,then exit back to the home screen and now I see the messages and notifications.
The same thing happen when the screen is off,actually it seem it start there.
I have no limitation on the background apps,surf only with 3g and it is happen also with hangouts,it is started a few months back before google update her app,in the old Google talk also.
The most strange thing is when i launch a game,because it uses the internet when i exit from it and not clear my task manger it seems like whatsapp and hangout getting the message for day or two and there again nothing,maybe i imagine i really do not know
My phone model is i9305 with official Samsung Nordic Rom.
i used avast anti virus until couple days ago.
By the way whatsapp+ that i saw here recently could help me in any way?
I really appreciate your help. :good:
want to clear it one and for all to enjoy my phone.
Thanks in advance,
David

Hi David,
you kinda answered yourself, the problem is with the task manager. I suggest reading the following:
http://www.howtogeek.com/127388/htg-explains-why-you-shouldnt-use-a-task-killer-on-android/
Chris Hoffman can explain better than me
BTW it's also says directly on whatsapp that it will not work well with task managers.
Cheers

Dear eytan123,
Thank you for your replay,I want to clarify myself and tell you that i do not use any external task manger,but only the built in one in jellybean.
In addition even when i do not "clear" my ram it still no working,i also compare it to others galaxy 3-i9300&i9305 that use and clear the ram with the built in task manager and still not suffer from this Phenomenon.

I guess Samsung keeps this app because it lets inexperienced users(unlike you and myself, or for that matter anyone in XDA ) the feeling that they can upgrade their performance...anyhow - It's strongly suggested that you don't activate\use ANY task killer.
Why not trying the suggested method for a couple of days? I'm sure your results will be much better

Thanks again for trying to help,but i already try this couple of times before open this thread.
Unfortunately not a single method that i tried was useful to me.
like to hear if you have another idea

upp

bumping a thread more than once every 24 hours is against the rules. don't post until you read them

Just noticed you asked about the whatsapp+ - it's not supposed to make things any better, only customizations. And you said the problem persists at the new hangouts.
If you're certain that your internet connection(cellular of course) is working good, before I suggest wiping and re-flashing or trying another rom I suggestthat you use the following app(it increases battery usage in a VERY MINOR way):

Try clear data
Make sure sync is on

Hi,
Thanks eytan123 but this app that you gave me it is just for rooted phones,i do not want to root my phone in this moment,about the rom,it is the same problem that i experienced in my previous official rom.
Still glad to hear about this app for future notice
Thanks hello5629,if you mean to clear app data i already try this also
You wanna tell me that only my phone suffer this problem?

Just making sure - have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the apps ?

yep,several times..

Well I guess that leaves you with factory reset your phone.
But since your'e not rooted keep in mind you'll lose all your apps..

ya i know,i do not really want to do it,i think i will open a thread in general android forum,maybe there when it is not only i9305 community,maybe some will have the answer.
Thanks again for your effort

[Q] Quiet Notification Sounds from 3rd Party Apps!

Hello,
Just a quick question, but has anyone found out a way to stop this from happening? Text messages, phone calls, etc from built in apps all give correct volume levels when the notification/call arrives.
However, any third party apps such as facebook messenger or whatsapp etc have extremely low notification volume.
This was a common problem with the Galaxy Note 4 and some newer LG phones too. No one seems to know if it's an android bug present since 4.4 and in 5.0, or if it's a safety feature.
Either way, it's extremely annoying. I'm gonna say its a bug, as if I get 2 notifications in quick succession, the 2nd will always be at max volume. Also at times the notification volume is at max regardless, before it goes quiet again an hour or so later.
There was an app that prevented all of this in 4.4, but it does not work with Lollipop.
This is present in the stock Android L builds from google, and in every custom ROM I've tried so far.
Any solutions?
Thanks in advance!

Hey,
I'm also having this problem. did you ever find a fix?
