[Atrix 4G General] Rred:
I am not a programmer nor do I play one on TV.

However I have researched the recording problem on the Atrix and what I finally dug up--after extensive searching--is that the Android program libray includes function calls that "echo" the incoming call audio, and outgoing call audio, as streams, to other locations such as files.

If a programmer invokes those calls, the call audio gets saved to a file and the call is recorded, period.

Except, AT&T and/or Motorola apparently chose to OMIT THOSE FUNCTION CALLS from the libaudio.so library on the Atrix. One might argue that this is a breach of the Android license, because a standard function has been removed or omitted, presumably intentionally.

And of course since the Atrix is all locked up, a user can't just copy those functions back in.

But a complete new ROM image certainly should be easily able to fix that, all it takes is including the standard Android code.

I'd just hate to load new code into my phone and find out something else got screwed up by it. There's a lot of poor information, poor documentation (some guys can write code, but can't document it. OTOH some of us can't write code) and outright misinformation, like the digressions into mythological call recording laws.

Bottom line? The phone can do two-way recording. The OS can do two-way recording. But someone at AT&T/Motorola has locked out that feature. A dumb move for a "business class" phone that users at gas companies, insurers, and emergency responders, all of whom are often REQUIRED to record their calls, might otherwise buy.

I'd certainly like to hear ongoing feedback about how well that Chinese image plays with the AT&T network for US users.
[Atrix 4G General] troysite:
I would like to test . thanks
[Atrix 4G General] gzrecoil:
I don't do it, but you can use google voice to record calls, it's free.

Looking forward to some solutions built into the roms too, however.
[Atrix 4G General] J0s3f:
Can someone share just the libaudio.so from the chinese image?

Maybe replacing this woult help it.

It works for fixing the GPS Bug!
[Atrix 4G General] Rred:
"I don't do it, but you can use google voice to record calls, it's free."

It WAS possible but Google changed their policy about 2-3 years ago. Last time I checked you could only record INCOMING calls now, you cannot record calls that you have placed OUT.

And of course, that still requires the call coming INTO your Gvoice number, rather than directly to or from your cell phone's number.

"DIE VAMPIRE DIE" Time to put a stake in that old one, isn't it?
[Atrix 4G General] rancur3p1c:
it works in china build so that the CCP can report back all of your phone conversations.. Duh.;)

Does anyone have a link to this Chinese rom? I have yet to be able to find it
[Atrix 4G General] FtaWolf:

[Atrix 4G General] pernicus:
Miui wouldn't work when tried
[Atrix 4G General] TooBad_CN:
The picture is the system from China
[Atrix 4G General] pernicus:
do you have a link to download the rom? Everytime I tried to follow a link to it before I was wading through pages of forums in chinese/korean etc blindly clicking download links hoping for the best with no luck
[Atrix 4G General] knigitz:
Not true

You don't need written consent. I work at an inbound call center for a large US company and we record all phone calls for QC purposes - all you have to do is inform the person that you will be recording the call, and if they stay connected, they've consented.

Furthermore, at a federal level, as long as one party knows the call is being recorded, the call can be recorded. It's up to the state whether or not to require two party notification, or leave it at one party notification per the federal law. If you live in a state which only requires one party notification, you may record your own calls without notifying the other party to that fact. Plenty of states require only one party consent, meaning you can record your own calls without the other party knowing.

[Atrix 4G General] KinGJamP:
cool.. tks
[Atrix 4G General] ystong:
Does this rom have some wired "do-do" sound during the call recording? Are all the apps working fine in this rom? Is there any apps disabled by the Chinese Government?
[Atrix 4G General] sjbayer3:
Any updates to this over the past few months?
[Atrix 4G General] deathbearer:
I have installed this Chinese rom... Now Blast and can say that it sucessfully records 2-way calls.Those who want 2way call recording function can use it. its just like stock rom

hope this helps

Any chance you could provide the libaudio.so file, so we can try it out with CM7?

[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
It does have wifi hotspot? It was on the stock rom when I purchased my phone. You can use hotspot on rooted as well 3G/4G. It has 816

Edit: I'm sorry no hotspot I was talking about tether *facepalm* lol.
[Motorola Photon 4G] njarun:
what if we install custom roms like cm7 or miui? will they bring wifi hotspot? does it require any particular hardware of its just a software feature?
[Motorola Photon 4G] wireless.praying.mantis:
Do you want to save money each month?/Quieres ahorrar dinero cada mes?

Sprint has the best value in wireless considering you'll get 7.5 hours for landline calling included from Mon-Fri 7 am to 7 pm, all mobile to mobile calls while on Sprint's Nationwide Network are free, all calling after 7 pm are free, all domestic text messaging as well as domestic data usage are unlimited and free. All this on the Motorola Photon 4G starts at $87.99 ($79.99 + $8.00 Total Equipment Protection) before any NVP discounts and applicable taxes. Remember, both at&t and Verizon Wireless cap data usage per month and charge per MB over the included GBs and T-Mobile throttles data speed to 2G speed until the next billing cycle once 5 GB of 3/4G usage is exceeded.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Hotspots work for me rooted. I never tried multiple devices I will when I get off and report back.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hk2006:
Had anyone tried it before?

After I unlock my bootloader using the official method, it is a silly way to unlock your Arc S bootloader. You will lost your DRM key and FOTA bricked, I learned my lesson. If you want to unlock your phone Testpointer method is obviously a better way.

So I relock my bootloader again using a common method you can find online:

http://xdaforums.com/show...php?p=20422618

fastboot flash -i 0x0fce getvar version

fastboot flash -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY

Error: cannot load '0x0fce' is what I got after execute these command.

I am so desperate to get my bootloader unlock again and manage to switch between locked and unlock state.

Is there something to do with preset.ta file so I can unlock my device again. If the re-lock patch involving this file.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hk2006:
Well! It seem to solved.

Using following command:

fastboot getvar version

fastboot oem unlock 0xKEY

Thanks you guys!
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Hey everyone! I'm currently on a Sense rom but I might change to an ICS rom once it becomes more stable. What do you prefer, Sense, or Ice Cream Sandwich?
[HTC EVO 3D] G.Newton:
Well right now all 3 of the roms out are still in an alpha stage, so if you're looking for a complete, finished rom.. stick with Sense 3.5 roms. I'm running JoelZ Alpha4 ICS rom and it's butter smooth and I don't regret flashing it. I'm using it as my daily, ISC is beautiful. Camera, and 4g don't work yet on all of them. And they're each missing something else.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
oh ok, so you think ics is better for speed and stability?
[HTC EVO 3D] G.Newton:
When I was on stock my phone was lag-free and smooth, and JoelZ rom replicates that. It doesn't crash on me hardly, really smooth, there's obvious works in progress but overall it's beautiful. Data/sms works, but I can't send/receive pictures and there's a few other glitches. If you can live without camera and 4g go for it.
[HTC EVO 3D] steal25:
Sense is also in ICS.
[HTC EVO 3D] G.Newton:
The current 3 current ICS roms are sense roms? I know one of them is built from source code, which doesn't contain Sense. In fact, I don't see a hint of Sense (except the removal of onscreen buttons if that counts).
[HTC EVO 3D] steal25:
I misunderstood the ops question, disregard.
[HTC EVO 3D] stevecast2024:
I have been running JoelZ's ICS Rom and love it. For an Alpha stage ROM, JoelZ has this thing running very nicely and has hardware acceleration working as well. As was mentioned earlier, no Camera, no MMS, no 4g, and a few other items, but if these are not required by you then this is an excellent ICS ROM to try if you have an interest in ICS.

ICS is a huge face-lift for the Android OS in my opinion. I am very pleased with it thus far. If you are the type of person that want a full 100% working ROM, then I would give this a little more time before giving it a try. If you don't mind not having a few of the missing features then I would say have at it. ICS has really impressed me thus far.
[HTC EVO 3D] aruga:
Yeah only bad thing about most sense 3.5 roms is missing 3d and 4g which has been said above. I like the Nocturnal Roms especially Blackened 2.5.0. I will stick with them until sense 3,5 ports have the bugs worked out.
[HTC EVO 3D] N4LG4S:
If you dont mind living without the camera & 4G get an ICS rom first, try it out and give a test run.

So I've been using the ICS alpha lulz v3for a few days. I'm here to report that so far its mostly very good. Its fairly quick, nor as fsst as miui or cm7 but very good. One thing ive noticed is that ocasionally at the lockscreen the soft buttons stop responding. I can get them back by holding down the power button untill the shutdown/airplane mode menu comes up. Also the launcher prefrences menu comes up blank. One question, how do you get to the new drawr type thing that shows apps running and alows you to kill them by sliding them over?

Thanks
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
Are you referring to alphalulz v3 or teamhacksung build 3? Th build3 is the latest. I honestly like alphalulz v3 and th build 2 the best... because the browser is so much smoother. Th build 3 seems to be having random bootloop issues.

You can bring up the multitasking thing by long-pressing home. And it doesn't kill the apps when you swipe them, it just clears them from that view.

There is a bug in it which cause the backlight not to light up when in recovery mode, try getting the brightest thing you can and shine it on your screen once you go into recovery mode. I used my laser, which is extremely bright and it worked.

But yeah, the screen is probably just not lit up and you need something very bright to see it.

[Kindle Fire General] CodenameDeadpool:
I've got Juice Defender and have the settings on balanced. Is it compatible with the kindle fire and does it work that well at all, if so what settings? Is there a better battery saver? Thanks.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
I haven't found it necessary to have a battery saver.
[Kindle Fire General] CodenameDeadpool:
I just get all these apps that open randomly. I looked for task killers but i can just go to settings or my apps screen and kill them. Idk, I guess I thought that juice defender, might force close apps like that for me so they dont drain my battery.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Android is designed to manage that on it's own.
[Kindle Fire General] yumcax:
Since the Kindle Fire is WiFi only, there isn't very much for Juice Defender to manage. Usually it tries to save battery by turning off Data when the phone is sleeping, etc. but none of that applies to the KF.

You'll probably save more battery by not having Juice Defender running in the background. My suggestion, if you need more juice, is to try underclocking or undervolting, custom kernel etc.
[Kindle Fire General] CodenameDeadpool:
Thank you very much, you were extremely helpful. I wasn't sure if it was worth keeping.

Why do I see "phone and cell " draining my battery 19 % . I running CM7 btw.. How do I turn that off..?:confused:

There are tools which will give you a better idea of what is actually going on though like System Monitor.

I use Jd on my phone, but like already stated I don't think it would add much value on the fire because the device is wifi only.

Long story short, I flashed a boatloader for the european version of the phone and my phone is bricked.

I want to know how to short circuit my phone without making it look intentional. I am not insured but I do have warrenty, if I short circuit the phone, will they be able to fix it in the sprint store? I am really hoping they don't. I just want a new phone. I was told that I was have to pay a $35 fee to get the phone fixed, what do you guys think? BEst way to short circuit this phone? (Not with water please)

UPDATE:

So my cuz and I went to the sprint store and his friend saw the phone and the first thing he asked if it was rooted, I said yeah. He couldn't fix it, but said he will take care of it when exchanging it and since I didn't have insurance, I had to pay the $35 warranty exchange. Furthermore, I added the insurance with the exhange, I am picking up the exchanged phone tomorrow because it had to be ordered.

Thanks a lot guys for the help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
This is why im glad i have insurance if i brick it its at the bottom of a lake. What warranty. As he said even download mode warns you of the possible warranty voiding. Least expensive option now is probably repair.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Besides the things I'd like to say about this situation, I'll say something else. It won't go into download mode? You could try getting a USB jig and see if that will force it into download mode. I'm holding back the temptation to say something really smartass. This was a very expensive lesson, huh? Sending it in to unbrick it, if all else fails, is your last resort. With a $500 phone, you can't afford NOT to get insurance for it?! Even if you had insurance, you wouldn't get a brand new phone.

I'm not trying to be a ****, so don't take it that way.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sabatheman:
im referring to the 1 year warrenty that comes with the phone, it protections against defections in the phone. If I short circuit it, it will be defected... no more useless comments please, don't remind me of what I already know; I know that I should have gotten the insurance, enough said about that.

Would really appreciate it if someone could actually answer my question
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sabatheman:
newalker, would sprint be able to tell that the phone is rooted if i shorted out to the point that it wont turn on? was thinking about using a 9 volt battery to do so.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
If you fry the usb port theyll blame it on you using an aftermarket charger since your stock one is fine. You probably wont be lucky enough to even keep them from checking the rom status. You have a phone capable of being repaired by samsung soon you may have nothing.

The warranty covering defects was voided by a custom rom. The reason they wont honor it after rooting or custom rom is things such as overclocking. Many things can be done via software that would normally be replaced as defective.

If you cant make it so they never find out then all warrantys are null and void period. Truth and fact.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sabatheman:
how do I get this 35 dollar exchange done sir? How can I get the 35 dollar exchange w/o them finding out I rooted the phone? :/ been such a stressful week, been bricked for a week. What's the BEST thing I can do right now in my situation?>
