[Q] Recording Calls

I've been trying to record my phone calls. I don't need my responses mainly the person on the other end.
I've tried Total Call Recorder, and Call Recorder Pro but no luck.
Anyone got this to work?

My ME863 (aka XT860?) had built-in voice recorder in the dialer, it worked great. Though it might not have been fully legal in my country
Maybe find some way to get the ME863 dialer?

I did some searching and there is a Chinese rom that has a few more features than stock, including call recording. Im going to have to flash that. One issue is that its a more battery consuming rom.

That's probably the same ROM that I have, it has (among other things) built-in call recorder, Firewall (to block calls/sms), and FM Radio. I quite liked it actually, just wish the phone had more RAM and a bigger battery.

That's the one. Do you have the rom files still? The Chinese rom that's posted says it isn't for the XT862.

Well I used XT862 ROM no battery issue as you guys explain.

Nope, sorry, because I didn't install the ROM from anywhere. I bought the phone on the airport in Taiwan so it was stock ROM for me. I tried messing around with bootstrappers etc. and it's a bit screwed up now, no idea if I'd be able to extract something useful from it. I could try to export the Dialer application, but it might not work on the XT862

Sure, but I have no idea how risky this is, I guess better backup your phone or at least the current Dialer app first!!
This should be the .apk for the MotoBlur dialer, for Android 2.3.5, phone model ME863.. install at your own risk
(Extracted using Titanium Backup Pro)

Thanks for the .apk, to bad I can't install it

Sorry to hear it didn't work, but hey.. at least it didn't break your phone :S

Sorry for bumping, but did anyone get this to work?

Weird, got hit by the trial end as well but installing the other ersion worked fine. Anyway it doesnt seem to work fully for me, only captures from the mic.

Find Phone Question

Hi helpful people of XDA.
I've received my One and I'd very much like to keep it in my possession. Just wondering if there's a find my iPhone style app available for it? Or if its in settings somewhere?
Edit - Also while I'm here, the phone doesn't seem to distinguish between H and H+ it's annoying, is there any chance of being able to see the difference?
Thanks.
Phil

Plan B is awesome. You can install that one after you lost it via play.google.com
Otherwise you can use prey or any other app .. there are tons

Theres also Wheres my Droid
But as said, most of these "finding" apps you can install online through your google account and then track down your phone

So many apps I wasn't aware of!
Thanks chaps.

NFC android beam picture transfer.

I was playing with the NFC on the One and I transferred a few items between my my phone and my daughter's Note II. I noticed that when I send her a picture the Note II will download it to her gallery and she just can click the notification and open the picture. But when she tries to send me a picture the One just opens the play store and I get item not found error, like it seems the one requires an app to download the picture but when the play store tries to take me to it the One is not compatible with that particular app?
Let me know if you guys are having the same problem or a work around.

I saw this too. I saw it happen both ways (to or from the ONE) if the destination device was doing something. See if it still happens when you aren't actively down/uploading something and aren't running any other apps and are on a basic home screen (no blink feed).
That's where I was when I successfully received and sent via NFC with the ONE.

Sounds like the Note is sending the app information instead of the file itself. Your phone is attempting to locate this mysterious different app in the store, but can't find it because it doesn't exist up there. Seems like this is an issue of Samsung not coding in a way that makes their device play nicely with others.

Well, I should add I beamed between a GS3 and Moto RAZR M with success (all phones stock & unrooted).
Perhaps it could be limited to the Note II if you still have trouble after trying the above.

I just tried with my Nexus 7 and it works fine both ways sending picture, I will try later today with the Note II. Sounds like it's the Note,'s fault after trying your advice. Now if I could make Google wallet to work without rooting my phone.....

How do you do this process of beaming pictures with nfc? Care to give a short tutorial? I tried and can't figure it out. Thanks

Just put the phones back to back (might have to move it around a little to find the NFC locations) and once it vibrates click on what you want to share

... And make sure you have it enabled on both phones obviously.
Usually settings, near the top by wireless... for the HTC One press "More..." then enable NFC in there.

Reporting back, The issue is with the Galaxy Note II. I was able to send both ways pictures from the nexus 7 and the one, but when I try to sent from the note II to the other 2 devices I just get the broken market link. I check the Note's forum later.

The Samsung phone uses their own NFC app. So when you try and transfer it to any other phone other then a Samsung phone it is looking for the NFC app on the playstore. This happens with the S3 as well.
I think if you download the Samsung NFC Tectile app it might work. Not sure 100% on that.

File Expert is a good NFC app replacement. You can send a lot of stuff through it too. Like full games (apk's), songs, pictures etc.
I never use NFC so I'm not too worried about it.

Probably sbeam messing with stuff. Had this problem with the Note II trying to beam to an Optimus G

I did get a clean transfer though with a GS3 that was stock, so not sure about all of that, though I bet it has something to do with it.

The problem is not sending pictures to the Note II. the problem is sending pictures from the Note II to the one. I tried turning off s-beam and the Note recognized the NFC on the HTC one but it didn't even tried to send the picture.

Help for Google Wallet

Today Sprint opened up their version of the One to be able to download Google Wallet.
After seeing this I edited my build.prop and changed the "m7" values to "m7wls" was able to download it, but I get a Force Close on initial setup.
Was wondering if somebody could help out, perhaps supply me with an actual m7wls build.prop, so I can try to see if there is anything else I can change in order to get this working. If anybody has experience with this it would be greatly appreciated.

Did you check if the device and model strings are the same?

We need a build.prop from a Sprint One to be sure. Would be cool if we could get it to work
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2

I tried editing the build prop to galaxy nexus and eventually got the app to install but upon opening it would say something about insufficient secure element and close

Ive been having issues with google wallet myself l8tly.
I am in the uk and I know its not supported here yet..
Tried Modaco's xposed wallet tweak that should remove the region check.
Instead all it seems to do is come up with a "you dont have a connection" message...
Tried a few things with no joy, so have abandoned it till its "official"...
Im in UK on O2 btw, if that makes much of a diff.

Low Power Mode off/on, change of themes makes things CRAZY

Hello everyone,
I have been having this problem for a few weeks now, and it has gotten to the point where I think something is SERIOUSLY wrong with my phone.
I have a 512gb UNLOCKED N960U1. Never rooted. I'm a little OCD with my app arrangement so i have every app on my phone in folders so i dont have to get a finger hernia scrolling through everything.
My problem is that I use low-power mode often. I also like to turn in on while driving, and charge my phone in the car that way. Lately when coming OUT of low-power mode, I've found that my apps have DUPLICATED. Every. Single. One. Doesn't matter if the phone is charging, or not. They duplicate, BOTH APPS OPEN, and I have to uninstall the second ones with no data loss to the original(?) one.
I also like to change my themes weekly. Thats what originally started the problems. Recently, after switching a theme out again, I found that the phone had emptied out my folders into a giant CF in my app drawer. Thinking "at least its not old school Samsung LAG", I just put them BACK. No biggie.
NO GO. I did that THREE SEPARATE TIMES. I have 425+ apps on my phone. Sometimes SOME of the apps will be removed from the folders, sometimes ALL of the apps.
The breaking point for me was when I took it off of low-power mode as I was leaving the car, and the apps spread back out, and SOME WEREN'T EVEN SHOWING. Furious, I knew I was going to use my tapatalk app to get onto XDA to ask for help or guidance. Tapatalk Pro is on my phone, but WAS NOT SHOWING IN THE APP DRAWER. So i searched for it instead. It came up in the SEARCH, but not alphabetically where it SHOULD be. Now when you find an app by searching, if the app comes up, you can long press it and it will give you the option to "locate" where the app is store on your phone (folder, which screen, etc.) When that was done, the phone froze briefly, and then did nothing.
Im at my wit's end on this issue. The most horrible part is that I can't find ANYONE who is having this issue other than me. Phone has not been dropped, no cracks, nothing.
What the hell is wrong with my phone??

This is the most horrific problem I've ever read on XDA is all my time here. Sorry that I don't have a solution to your problem, but just reading through your post is terrifying.

I think a logcat and developer tools may help. Have you tried Samsung service since you can easily replicate the problem in front of them?
Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Are you using 3rd party launcher? If you don't use low power mode does it still happen. What are using to change themes?

No third party launcher. I use the standard, built in theme options when I switch themes, and the themes are downloaded from the Samsung theme app/store/part.

Unfortunately thats exactly what I did. I started putting my apps in folders as everything was downloading. I also began to get rid of apps because I figured that definitely didn't help.
By the time the phone finished downloading all my backup'd apps, the two apps I deleted were BACK, and the apps came out of the folders I had just put in. Back to the same situation. :silly::crying:

Since what you're experiencing is most likely a software issue, you may want to factory reset and try not restoring any of your backed up apps, just manually install the basic ones and see how it behaves for a few hours.

For 435 apps?

I'm reviving this thread because the problem continued on the the Note 10.
...then the Note 20U...
Now I'm too scared to try it on my Z Fold 3.
This is a SOFTWARE issue...not a specific phone or app issue.
