For all the skype users out there...is it just me or everytime I call/recieve a call from Skype it forces you to use the speakerphone instead of the regular phone output.
Not sure if I messed up a reg entry to make skype act that way or if it comes like that by default...? I checked its settings and found nothing regarding any output settings....
Does anyone else have the same issue?
This is currently the normal behavior. As far as I know Skype isn't able to use the "ear speaker".
Thanks for the clearification!
Hope their newest version fixes this problem....
Use Fring, it pushes the sound through normal ear speaker.
Has anyone tried both on the N7? If so, which one did you like better?
I actually bought GrooveIP and then got it as a FAOTD on Amazon...its not bad overall. However, Talkatone let's you text as well...but then you have to deal with ads. Since I don't text much and I have Google Voice anyway, I'm sticking with GrooveIP. I see enough ads in the Android world.

The voice quality is similar for both?
In my brief test, yes. I didn't notice much difference, but I only made one call with Talkatone to the same person. Regular use might be a different story though.

Tried Groove IP and the person on the other end was hearing a mean echo of their own voice. I tried tweaking different settings but nothing worked. Guess I'll give Talkatone a try.

I use GrooVe IP on my N7, enabled the basic echo canceler and that worked for me.

Did you get some error about GrooVe IP not being able to find the "tail" or something like that when enabling the echo cancel?

Echo is a result of feedback from speaker back into microphone. Try turning on echo canceller, lower microphone gain or use headset.
echo
I had an echo problem with GrooveIP on voice calls (one one end only). In addition GrooveIP incoming calls work
only one way (caller can hear but receiver cannot.)
Tried Talkatone and no echo plus send/received voice calls worked fine.

I tried the echo canceler but it didn't work. Tried lowering the microphone gain and the person on the other end said she could barely hear me.

Hi,
If you have trouble with GrooVe IP, please feel free to email us at [email protected]. We'd be happy to help. I would suggest leaving the mic gain at the default level, try reducing the speaker volume first with the physical volume buttons on your device. Make sure the screen is on when you use the volume buttons. Also which echo canceler did you use? I'd recommend using the basic echo canceler.

Hi,
I'd recommend doing a clean install of the app. Uninstall the app, restart the device, then download and install the app. Try turning on the basic echo canceler for any echo problems. Also make sure you have the latest version of the app. 1.2.24 for the paid version or 1.0.6 for the free. Jelly bean added a few VoIP focused api's that we integrated with in the latest version.

Thanks! Will do.
My experience (about a month ) --
GrooVe IP - delay, echo
Talkatone - no delay or echo , like the integrated text feature
For me, Talkatone has the edge at this point.
since I use my phone to tether on the go, in the car I use Tablet Talk and a Motorola Roadster. tablet talk lets me remote control my phone to send and receive texts through my cell phone and remote dialing and answer calls. There is no audio used on the tablet itself with Tablet Talk so when in the car, the phone is paired to a bluetooth speakerphone so I don't have to touch my phone at all in the car for anything.
Tablet Talk on Google Play
I personally prefer grooveip. I can do without the gtalk integration of talkatone, maybe I didn't set it up correctly. Also I noticed that talkatone didn't alert me of an incoming call when my screen was off, again maybe a setup issue. Talkatone was nice because I could set myself away on gtalk for free. Otherwis grooveip does everything I need it to do, handle calls.

Has anyone noticed a delay in your voice output when using bluetooth in Groove IP? The people on the other end are receiving my responses slightly after I say it. It's annoying because I'm interrupting the normal rhythm of a conversation.
Talkatone is the best better quality and texting. But groove IP has more options.

My Nexus 7 is having static and screeching noises overriding ONLY incoming voice when using VoIP applications through bluetooth headsets. All other bluetooth communications seem to be functioning properly. I know that 4.2 has some bluetooth issues, but this does not seem to be among them specifically. Please comment and star this isssue here code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=41317 if you are having the same problem. The more people we can get to identify it as a problem the more easily we can determine what kind of issue it is and perhaps the more quickly we can get Google to address it. If you have a brand new (purchased in the last month or so) Nexus 7 (32gb) and are not experiencing this, what kind of headset are you using and what VoIP application. If you've discovered a workaround, what is it? If you think this is an isolated defect, please explain. Please see the link for further details. Thanks!
Nexus 7: 4.2.1
Tested apps: GrooveIP and Talkatone

Maybe the app Volume Control will help.
It is a set and forget app.
You need to enable 'incall volume' first. Set it to maximum.
I've recently upgraded my Nexus 6 to CM13. It seems that's hosed the ability to record calls.
I've tried ACR premium which worked fine on my other device, but not the N6.
BoldBeast doesn't work - it either crashes on hang up or just records from the mic. Have chatted with the (very patient and helpful) developer and tried all the various options.
Skvalex Call Recorder just records silence.
Total ReCall only records from the mic - even if using the root recording option.
So, has anyone successfully recorded 2 way audio on CM13 for the N6?
Thanks
Have just tried Jit Call Recorder - also microphone only. Bonus feature of rebooting my phone halfway through a call...
It has always been a hell
If you ever find a working one please do let us know.
I would also like this.
Get call recorder by skvalex. I have tried them all and this is the only one that works correctly. I have been using it for over a year for a court battle., it uploads all of your calls to the cloud you select. Yes it costs a bit of money, but he has put a lot of work, and every feature there is. He has a lot of information in his thread on xda also.
