Recent calls list mostly gone - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

I ported over to another network and noticed the majority of my Recent call list history has disappeared. I only see a few for today and yesterday ( when I ported ) and strangly a couple from February.
I just checked my wife's Note 8 as she ported also, her Recent call list is intact.
Any ideas?

Call Recording - Total Recall

I installed Total Recall today to give it a try.
There was a guy on the Note forum that discovered that if you chose option B the phone would hang a bit then go back in and choose C that the Note would record perfectly. The same trick seems to work here.
I wonder if someone can inject some files to a rooted device that would make call recording work.
Has anyone tried any other call recording program with any success?
FYI, we're working on automating these settings (as well as doing some research as to exactly why this affects things as it does). Look for our next update (v1.9.4) to include this settings config automatically for Note users.

Wow. That will be great. So glad I've purchased this already.
Can't wait for the update.

I am interested in this too. Configure Option B then C works perfectly until the phone restarts.
Has the new version create a shortcut for this yet?
CallRecorder (Dsoft) works perfectly on 7.7

Root Call Blocker/ Call Master - need testers please

Hi guys. Im one of the devs who make RCB and CM. We recently released an update that was supposed to fix issues blocking and otherwise managing calls on the newer xperia phones.
However im getting conflicting feedback. Please be so kind as to download the apps and test their blocking functionality by doing the following:
1. Add another mobile number to a blocking list
2. Call yourself from that number, write down result
3. SMS yourself from that number, write down result
Post here or find the settings item (its the same in both apps) that says "Write to us" and send logs with a description like "XDA XPERIA TEST". Be sure to say what actually happened.
We had to fix this issue using decompiled firmware so theres no guarantee. And of course theres some people saying it was fixed and some saying it wasnt. Some say that its been fixed in JB but is now broken in ICS, so mention what version of android youre running.
Call Master (completely free): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.blacklist
RCB (trial): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.rootcallblocker.beta
Thanks in advance!!!
I can only write the same as in call master thread, I have Xperia V, currently on JB 4.2.1, CM 10.1, both call master and rcb works for me without any problems, i do not have reflashed stock today, but yesterday call master was ok on LT25i_9.0.1.D.0.10 firmware
Can anyone else please confirm this?
Worked fine on Xperia V 9.0.1.D.0.10. Stock based ROM.
Added a number to the block list
Rang my phone from the blocked number.
Icon appeared and blocked the call successfully (there was a single hint of vibration)
Seems to work fine
Thanks, but I'm not up on the stock ROM builds.... Is that ICS or job?

How much memory should CM be using?

It all depends on what kind of settings youre using. Also, it depends if youve recently been viewing logs but its not a lot. On my phone right now with about 30 managed contacts its using 18 MB. But actual use is probably 10 or so, depending on things like the size of your logs, the pages in the app you have recently opened and so on.
Remember, every activity you dont close will be cached by android, so if you for example keep entering the app then pressing home you will be adding a little. Do it 5 times and there will be a bit more. But this is cache, not memory use.
The automatic memory manager will flush caches if it needs more memory - if it has lots, apps will keep adding to the caches forever. Its unfortunate that many people have no idea how this works, they just assume that its a problem.
Works perfectly now thanks!
It is now fixed. Perfect app (root blocker).
I actually like Call Master more, its by the same devs. More granular you know...
It works always.
Rooted JB (489) / Xperia T here: CallMaster works flawlessly
I apology my poor english.
I bought 'Call Master' last year.
Phone model : IM-T100K
When i used Gingerbread it worked perfectly.
But after upgrade to ICS 4.0.4, sms blocked well, call does not blocked at all.

Request

Can someone get me Roms for mini galaxy s3
Thank you
Please, search this forum when gonna installing rom!!!. Here few roms, choice yours: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1835
Hi everyone! I have a question related to my S3 mini I8190: after I hang up for about 2s appears the person/contact whom I had spoken with (also showing those 3 options: voice calling, video calling and messaging) and then appears the same display which was before talking with that person. Can I deactivate that 2s option? After the call I just want to appear the initial display i was toggle. Thanks
No sugestion?
blurred pictures at contact
Another thing: I noticed that the pictures from the contacts are blurred (mostely when I want to put a family picture (3 faces)) , even though I changed the rezolution of the pictures many times (from 290Kb to 13,5MB). Can someone help me with that?
Think you should remove pictures of family with contact number from a public forum on the Internet. At least any sensible moderator should do this.

Yes publish phone numbers and contact photos.

Galaxy Gear Working GOOD on s4 NOW

I purchased my gear yesterday and after finding and instaling the gear manager via samsung's app store I am happy to report that the only 2 things i don't have working at the moment is Svoice... seems to be a bug telling me to accept a disclaimer on the s4 itself but I have already done it and am using Svoice. Two is Notifications of txts and some others... got google now notifications to come thru but most others won't push to the watch. Contacts list... Phone dialer and speakerphone call log and apps work GREAT!!
Thanks guys.. now lets get this thing rooted and fix these two problems cuz id love notifications... a custom rom and my google now to replace the svoice please... Im willing to donate NOW. lol I really want handcent notifications and a way to respond by voice to a handcent txt on the watch..
People look at me like I'm :cyclops: but I could'nt care less cuz I'm walking around looking like Capt Kirk on his communicator.
:highfive::laugh:
Running HyperDrive from sbreen latest release.
Same here on an ME7 Verizon S4. Looking forward to the 4.3 update.
Working on GS3 too
Bought the gear today, hoping it will show the time at least until 4.3 update is out for gs3 in December, but happy to report that it's working with the gear manager downloaded from the Samsung store. Also notifications aren't working, same message for S Voice as above, can't download new apps and weather isn't syncing - everything else is working great! Call quality is surprisingly good, camera fun... really happy Samsung customer here
With the recent release of the MJ7 update for the S4 have either of you seen any issues fixed with notifications?

Can I do this on the Note 5?

Hi guys,
I have a Galaxy Note 3 presently and it's having some minor software issues + issues with the loudspeaker. I can't be bothered fixing them - so I'm going to use it as an excuse to upgrade! Therefore, I'm going to get a Note 5. I haven't researched it much but assume it's a big improvement on the Note 3...
I don't use my phone for anything more than calls, messages, emails, Facebook and Snapchat really. I'd like to keep it as stock as possible, but I do need the following features:
1) Bypass exchange security settings on emails that require you to put a PIN/Password to unlock your phone every single time. I have been able to do this on the Note 3.
2) Remove messages from the call log. Not sure if this was fixed in the newer android versions but it was very annoying when I first got my phone. I only want to see calls in my call log.
How can I do the above on the Note 5 with the least amount of stuffing around/customising my phone?
Also, are there any 'must have' accessories for the Note 5? And should I be considering any other phones as alternatives before I go ahead and buy a Note 5?
Cheers

hi ,
i can give you an idea or two ..it's up to you if you want to do it .
Firstly ,i have Note 2,Note 3 Note 4 and Note 5 .
What it did was with my Note 3 was installed a custom Rom Phronesis port of Note5 .
Its a very stable Rom and a clone of Note 5 software. I must admit, it very identical to Note 5 ,smooth ,fast ,no hiccups . ect
Secondly I just check my call log and only see phone calls listed ,no messages .
Thirdly cannot help you with that ,sorry .
Fourthly , as stated i have nearly whole Note range and really enjoy Note5 ,smoothness ,performance battery life on par with my other Notes ..very good
Bottom line ,
Its your decission ?.
good luck
I have a stock N920C ,not rooted .

Thanks mate. With my Note 3, the call log shows messages and calls received/made/missed, which is stupid. You can set it to show only calls, but then it reverts back again. Perhaps this was rectified in newer software versions, but as standard the Note 3 shows calls and messages in the log.
I need a new phone regardless, as my loudspeaker on my current phone is not working, but thanks for the idea.
Any advice on the Exchange Security bypass would be appreciated...

hi ,
I agree that your decision to get new device
is a good idea .Just wanted you to know, if you wanted to keep your "old " Note 3 ,you can spice it up ,(as a second backup device .)
Re the call log and messages ,there's a simple solution .Samsung log converter (free app ..Google Play ) see screenshots .
I used it for my Note 3 and my Note 8.0 tablet ,to seperate log messages from call log works fine on Note 3 and Note 8.0
I am suprised you have not used it ..?
Anyway ,good luck
Thanks alot, that app worked a treat!
Just need some help with the exchange security bypass now...
Thanks
I use an application called nine for my exchange emails it has a bypass built in the app and is far superior to the standard Samsung email app. It's a paid app but for exchange it's the best I've used.

Thanks mate - does your phone need to be rooted to use the bypass? I'm guessing so....?
Need to be rooted to use bypass in the normal email app.

Once rooted, how do I bypass the settings in the normal email app?

Hi guys,
I'm told I can probably just root, and check if there are any apps that allow me to bypass the exchange settings.
Failing this, I'm told I could go the Xposed module and apply the fix, or use a ROM which has it built in. Which path should I go down? What's the difference?
Cheers
