2-way recorded calls wont save themself

Hi Skvalex,

thanks for your work and creation of CallRecorder, but it seems that I propably need a little more help to make CallRecorder truly working (with 2WCR).

- I have Rooted Desire Z with ROM from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1169004 (Stock HTC Desire Z 2.42.405.2-WWE (Android 2.3.3, Sense 2.1) ROM. Absolutely untouched, only added is root/busybox)

- I updated my kernel (2.6.35.10-g7b95729) with update-desire-2_6_35.zip ( http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=712606&d=1315391006 )

- and I bought CallRecorder (1.1.8 full)

When CallRecorder records calls from "Standard Android API" everything works ok but when I switch to "Kernel with 2-way call recording (root required)" than when there is any call (out or in) the app will start recording (atleast it looks like it records, yellow icon of CallRecorder says "This call is being recorded") but after hangup the recorded call isnt saved... I tryed to change the dir to different folders but nothing helps.

Whats wrong?

Maybe upadete isnt working with my ROM/Kernel or maybe I forgot on smthing.!?

Please can You/somebody help me to make "2-way call recording" works?

Do I need another ROM/Kernel to make it work, if so, which would You recommend?

Thanks in advance for advice.

EDIT:

I downgraded CallRecorder to version 1.1.6 to find out what "Kernel Patch Version" says... well, it says "Kernel is not patched or 2wcr patch is too old". Acording to this forum a lot of users report that since version 1.1.3 "Kernel Patch Version" says "Kernel is not patched or 2wcr patch is too old" and some says that 2WCR stopped working.

So I downgraded CallRecorder to version 1.1.2 I thought that 1.1.2 should work even with obsolete update ...well it didnt... I had for the first time green CallRecorder icon but the "Kernel Patch Version" still says "Kernel is not patched or 2wcr patch is too old" ... when I make call (with 2WCR) recording will start (atleast it looks like it starts)... but after hangup the record isnt saved (CallRecorder still saves records only when "Standard Android API" is chosen)... so still same problem ...

Than I tried to find the whole ROM for Desire Z which supports 2WCR ... but only ROM I found is monstrous UNITY V9 ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1121937 ) ... With this ROM 2WCR finally WORKS! Hurayyy!!! But ROM itself is huge with plenty stuff I rly dont need and my Desire Z is sometimes sooo slow with this ROM. Personaly I would prefer something lighter than this heavy monstrousity. Well, Im grateful that the 2WCR finally works ... and since the possibility to record calls is most important for me I will (have to) live with UNITY V9, but I ... would be very grateful for some other (lighter) ROM with 2WCR for Desire Z. I find out that there is (for CM7) 2WCR KERNEL from LorDModUE V8.6 ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1085725 ) ... unfortunately dunno why but when I install CyanogenMod 7.1.0 on my desire Z, the rom after boot always ends in endless loop asking me on PIN for SIM (but that's problem to another topic).

So in the end I want to:

1) THANK YOU for this wonderfull app...

2) Report that 2WCR is working on Desire Z with monstrous UNITY V9 rom ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1121937 )

3) Ask You for advice with some other (lighter) ROM with 2WCR support for desire Z.

4) And ask on the 2WCR update/patch thing. From what I read I thought that patch is only for developers of kernel and updates are for users to update kernels (without 2WCR) in phone (via Clockwork Recovery) to make their kernel "2WCR friendly" ... Am I right or wrong? And If Im right, did I used wrong update, or was it just a bad luck that my update-desire-2_6_35.zip didnt work with my kernel (2.6.35.10-g7b95729)?

Thanks for the one of the BEST apps for android ever :)
