[23-03-09] ******** Updated ICRQVGA CABFILE ***********

Hi All,

I Updated the ICRQVGA Cabfile.

After Nick Martin posted his registry patch to enable 2 sided recording, i realized that the original drivers were already able to record 2 sides of the conversation. They only needed to be enabled. That is why I removed the "ddcall.dll" and all the registry entries pointing to that DLL. I added the registry settings Nick Martin suggested. The ICR application was already in the cab and so i didn't touch that.

Whats left is a working ICR application without modifying the existing drivers. All Registry entries and files are new ones so no systemfiles or registry entries are overwritten by the entries in the CAB.

So:

The phoneskin is untouched.

The systemfiles are untouched.

Start Recording from the "Phone" menu is possible.

HTC ICR application is included in the cab. (works with with the Start Recording option.)

It is possible to use 3rd party recording software.

I tested this cab on TytnII with the rom as shown in my signature.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] cktlcmd:
Yes I tried the cab file you made, unfortunately it did not work. I wonder if Real VGA has something to do with it...because I run mine on 96 dpi.

Anothing thing I notice, this is the registry setting Nick Martin gave us:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN]

"AUDIO_DEBUG_FLAG"=dword:00000040

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]

"RingingAddressId"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]

"VocRecPath"=dword:00000002

For some reason, after installing your cab file and browsing the registry, I noticed it is not similar to the above settings. There are more to it than just the 3 things listed above. Is that normal? The numbers were different. Therefore, I might try to plug the words and numbers myself.

How do you make "dword" ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
OMG UR A TIME TRAVELLER?? :eek::eek::eek::eek:

That file isnt going to be created until 23rd September 2009 so you went through time and brought it back just for the members of XDA.

Now thats what I call real dedication, keep it up mate :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
Use a registry editor such as total commander or resco registry.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] cktlcmd:
Yes, just tried it, still no success. Thanks everyone.

Still doesn't work for me. I get "ICR is not a valid Pocket PC Application" all the time.

I have just about given up now.

1. (if your q is about not hearing the other party: ) Did you check out the CAB file linked from the first post of http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=493118 ?

2. otherwise, dump ICR - there're much better (of much higher quality) ways of recording; what is more, automatically.

Note that if you want to stick to ICR because it's manual, you could consider using the built-in Notes for the same. It's just a button press away (if you assign starting Notes to a hardware button), unlike with ICR, which requires navigating in a menu.

Similarly, if you want to use another audio recorder, you can easily start manual recording in any of them (Resco, VITO etc.)

Hello! I installed NetCF3.5, then - ICR, but I don't have "record" menu in standart WM6 dealler on my Kiser!! What to do?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] cktlcmd:
I was trying it at my HTC Advantage X7510 WM 6.1
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
The "start record" option will only show when you are making an actual call...

So after installing ICR: softreset, (probably enter pincode). Make a phonecall and when connected choose "Start Recording" from the menu. In the ICR application you can set the path and recordingformat.

When you want to record calls automaticly I suggest you use "" Vito Audionotes" or other Thirdparty software to record your calls automaticly.

I tested the QVGAICR-230309.cab on the phone and OS shown in my signature.

See post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3511566&postcount=128
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Menneisyys:
Incidentally, why struggle with ICR when there're much easier and better alternatives for recording calls - for example, using the built-in Notes, which only needs a long button press to switch into recording mode.

You don't need ICR either to activate two-way recording - mskip's reghack works great with tons of Kaiser ROM's.

Also make sure you read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=497066
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
The cabfile that i built is using the same registry hacks mrskip uses in his cab. The only thing i added was the ICR application. There are no alterations made in the systemfiles.

Luckily i did not struggle to get it working. It worked the first time i tried it. I tried all solutions, and they did all work.

So if you are going to use third party software anyways, install the registry-cab by MrSkip. If you want to have a choice between the ICR application or thirdparty software install my cab. It uses the same registryhack .

Btw. Credits to the Registry Hack should go to Nick Martin.. he did all the searching... We (Mrskip and I) only made use of it in our cabfiles. ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] nonsence:
almost works perfect. but it beeps at me, why is that?

i just tried it now on my kaiser.

i downloaded ICRQVGA-230309.cab and installed only that, then soft reset the device and tested with the icr app.

it works so i was happy. but it beeped when i started the recording session. i thought this was supposed to be "secret", aka without a beep lol.

i also tried vito audio notes and set it to auto record calls but it didnt do anything.

both times i tested by using my house phone to call my mobile.

i'll try an updated version of vito and see if it works. i had an old copy kicking around. might also look around to see if others are worth a try, just for the automated feature.

but any ideas on why it beeped for mine? i didnt read any other posts saying it beeped for them.

fyi i'm using HyperDragon III Raphael WWE 20090113 CE OS 5.2.21009 Build 20931.1.5.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kaiserpower:
hi guys....it really works on my Kaiser and also for all those who doesn't know, it does work even when i am using my bluetooth headset using handsfree profile....i am using vito audionotes v1.37. The problem is the volume for both parties is very loud and clear when i am using speakerphone mode or bluetooth headset during the conversation. However if we using normal phone call mode using handset, the volume is very very soft. Therefore its definately not Vito nor the cab's fault. I don't understand but somehow i feel that there is a tweak to make handset call recording louder. It just doesn't make sense that using bluetooth recording, sound can be as loud as speakerphone recording, yet using handset is super soft. Any gurus wanna enlighten us? Thanks in advance....;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kejas:
I am so sorry .. i wrote something stupid in a rush .. my bad ..

i was asking where does the recorded sound clip get saved on our device. can we play it on other player from the file explorer... or not.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] jorra:
If you do a search about ICR for Raphael or Blackstone you will find a workaround that will work for Kaiser aswell...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
I checked the wavfiles in the cab, and the sounds you are hearing are not coming from the cab. the wav's are completely silent.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
If you use ICR to record then you can go into the option withing ICR to choose whether you want to save to the documents folder on your device or the storage card. Also you can choose to record in amr format which has limited playback options or wav which can be played on anything but takes up more space.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kejas:
Thanks Mskip..

cheers !!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] pinkdiamonds:
my conversations only start recording about 5 seconds in. not a major problem but was wondering if everyone else's does this as well or is it supposed to start recording from the get go of a conversation?

i am using Audio notes touch. BUt in that i cannot get anyoption that you have mentioned. Please suggest.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
Audio Notes Touch Touch should have a settings button at the bottom to change your recording options and where to save the file to.

ICR worked perfectly when I used a rom with radio1.70.

Today, after flashing another rom with radio1.27, it didn't work. "start recording" didn't appear. Then I made a hardrest and used "2 Way Recording.cab".But I still couldn't make a 2-side-recording.

So I think maybe the 2-side-recording function is not available for radio1.27 :o:confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
What 1.27 Radio was it? I thought the 27 series radios were only for WM6.0 based roms.

hi

I just noticed yesterday that my conversations get a bit "robot" - not my voice, but just the other person's voice. It starts off good then it gets distorted for a while, sometimes for the whole call. I'm not moving or anything. Is there something I can do to adjust this and make it normal for the whole call? (it doesn't happen on all calls)

pls help!!!! :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
What SPL, Rom, Radio and ICR software are you using?

Im using the Rom and Radio as stated in my signature. The software i use is: ICRQVGA-230309.cab .
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] pinkdiamonds:
sorry about this but I'm a major newbie :(

I haven't put anything onto my phone myself except for kaiser tweak (only to keep screen on during calls), audio notes and mcskip 2 way recording. Oh and some cabs for keyboards but i have had those removed for a while now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
Ultimate X2?? :eek::eek: Do you have a leaked copy of Abus next series lol :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
Ok goto Start, Settings, System, Device Information and let us know the Rom and Radio Version. Also what model of phone do you have?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
Yeah yeah... I know... I meant Ultimate X beta II.

Im now on Ultimate X V1. The latest.. And ICR still working. :)

I also noticed if you use "ICRQVGA-230309.cab" the enhanced HTC Phone contextmenu still shows the recording option when in a call. So that is also still working.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
Registry patch works fine in PDA Ultimate-X V1 aswell :D Resco Audio recorder has a very useful Gain Control in Action, Tools, Filters which makes the incoming voice really loud and clear on setting 4 (louder).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] pinkdiamonds:
ok its a HTC tytn II (kaiser?)

and the device info is:

rom version : 3.29.861.0WE

radio version : 1.65.16.25

I also have noticed more probs with Audio Notes. Whenever I try to send a text message, audio notes would open up - I'd have to cancel AN, but it also cancels my text msg and I have to re-open my txt folder. Is this normal?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
I would flash a custom rom if i was you it fixes alot of the stock rom problems and will let you use 2 way recording properly.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] pinkdiamonds:
is there no other way around it? Because I don't want to void my warranty (still got like 3 yrs :()
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] draelee:
If I remember correctly since I tend to read here more than comment. If you have to return the phone to get fixed or something you can just flash a stock rom back on the phone. Like nothing ever happened.:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
I also think the stock rom is the problem. If you want all the extra goodies that custom roms have to offer (including 2 sided call recording), than you should follow this thread by MrSKip:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=433835

If you feel uncomfortable with flashing your device, then don't do it. I flashed my TyTn probably more than a 100 times (and still working), but it is always your own responsibility.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] pinkdiamonds:
is this why it starts recording about 5-10 sec after the call starts as well? :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rr69:
I really don't know, but it could be, the call recording feature on my phone works ok, it records the whole conversation.

So it could be a stock rom problem.

The only way to find out is to flash a custom ROM and Radio that has been reported working.

If that works I would like to hear what your "not working" and "working" Rom and Radio where.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] anagarika:
Unless your stock ROM is so unique and not listed on Wiki, you shouldn't worry. There're ways to revert back if needed ;)

Are you saying you'd suffer the stock ROM for 3 years to come? :D

how can i change recording path?

i just installed the 2 way recording and i using Hyper Dragon rom which have recording feature but i am wondeing how can i change the recording path because it records on the main memory

thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
With the inbuilt recording using the record function that the registry edit creates you cant change the record path. If you want to record to storage card then you will have to use a third party app such as vito audio notes or resco audio recorder.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mskip:
If it doesnt work with your rom then its probably incompatable. Works with HyperDragon (all versions), PDACornerUltimate (all versions) and Anryls IOLITE Rom.

Hello all,

I am trying to write and application that opens a connection to the serial port, GPRS modem, and sends AT commands and receives any response.

I have a few questions;

1- I can open connection to 2 ports, named COM1 (or COM2 depending on the device) and COM9 (or COM3 depending on device). How can I be sure the device I am connected to is the GPRS modem?

2- When I try to write data, I have 2 results - first, device freezes without any response, and second, I get an IOException error.

Can anyone help me please?

I am using C# and Visual Basic .NET

Thanks,

Hi all,

over the last 2 weeks i have noticed my diamond getting pretty damn hot on random occasions and really chewing through the battery, i have run task manager when this occurs but no process is shown using alot of CPU.

I have read alot of threads on here descibing similar symptoms, some are just people who have wifi on or using CPU intensive applications, this i expect. But a few other users have described symptoms similar to mine where they are not using the phone and nothing appears to be running.

I am getting the problem with both my original HTC battery and the 3rd party spare i brought.

From reading the board the only definite cure seems to be a hard reset.

What im really after is any suggestions you people may have that can help me determin the actual cause of the problem, for example is their any software that will log CPU usuage over time or other diagnostic ideas.

thanks for your time
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] sonnybravo:
checking email regularly?

Maybe you might wanna check if you have the automatic mail checking feature on? Because I noticed that whenever I let my phone automatically look for email quite regularly (i.e. every 5 or 10 mins) it drains more battery then when you set it to check email every 2 hours for instance. Well that's what has helped in my case...hope this helps...:o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rumpleforeskin:
I have looked at my mail settings and my mail checks every 2 hours, i have had it set to 2 hours since i had the device (6 months) but this rapid battery drain has only started occuring in the last 2 weeks.

In that time i have not installed any new software, so am at a loose end as to the cause of the trouble
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] costp:
Hello,

I did had the same symptom : worked really good for 6 months (battery lasted for 30h +-) and in one time, battery was sucked out in 8 ! I did buy a new one (900mah) and it did the same. The only solution I find was to buy the 1350mah (htc) one and from this moment it last more than 2 days without any problem.

Also, I use G-light in place of the standard windows function and from this moment I really had a difference (from BatLog I went from 142mah to 123mah).

Hope it help (yeah I know: buying a bigger battery is not fun but for a device at this price, it's not so much...)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rumpleforeskin:
thanks for the feedback, i will order a new battery and give it a try, at the least it will prove if the problem is hardware or software related.

today my phone still has 63% battery since i removed it from charge at 11pm last night. The fact that the problem is intermittent is making it very dificult to diagnose.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kosherpig:
Today I noticed my wi-fi drains battery as hell, it was lie 60%+ of battery down in less than 40 minutes. In the past it was like 40% max. The PowerGuard's current meter did not show anything alarming. So the problem seems to be hardware.

Already backed up and hard resetted. The phone is under warranty and so is battery; sending it to service to get it fixed.

Or, I missed something and I can fix it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dinkk007:
Hey,

Yeah I'm currently experiencing the same problem.. I tired just about everything from battery fix cab, radios, to roms. I even got the orginal extended battery. The battery worked really well for like 2 weeks and then it started to drain really fast as well.. My cousin have the same phone as me HTC Diamond, and his battery is verry good.. It can last a whole day with heavy usage no problem. Where as my 1340MAH battery would only lask for 14hrs max with heavy usage, and when we switch the battery same stuff happens... His battery on my phone drains quickly and mine last long on his phone...

So I came to the conclusion that it's definitely a hardware issue.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tomwsk:
For those without battery problem, how much usage do you get out of a battery and what kind of things do you do with the phone? I'm just trying to gauge how bad my batter is. It will last about 8-9 hours, but that's with hald of that time spent on the internet on either 3g or edge. I've only had the phone for about a week so it's hard for me to compare it to anything else.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jfran:
other little things like disabling autobacklight and disabling 3G will help as well.

rgds
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Graffen:
One of the things you might want to check is if your phone is constantly trying to switch from 2g to 3g or HSPDA. This constant searching for a "faster" signal can make the phone quite hot and drain the battery quite quickly.

I had it on my diamond when I used to live at my old place as it was right on the edge of a 2g/HSPDA and the phone was constantly trying to get a decent HSPDA signal. The battery would last maybe half a day if I was lucky. Since moving to a decent 3g area, the battery now lasts me a good 2 days on nomal usage. This is with the original battery.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rumpleforeskin:
a good tip to save battery power which is something we all have to do, but i do not think its the cause of my new found rapid battery drain.

The last 6 moths i have been getting around a day to day and a half rom the the phone. now on random occasions ot will get real hot (like the gps/wifi is on or like the cpu is flat out) and the power goes in a few hours.

this is fine if its daytime and catch it but a few times its gone from 100% to 0% overnight and i have woken late for work.

interesting, i will leave the phone on 2G for the next few weeks and see if i experiance the rapid drain, maybe i am on the edge of a 2G 3G nexus, as i do get a fairly weak signal here (2 bars 3G and full bars 2G)

thanks for the suggestion
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Graffen:
From you last sentance it does sound like it the 2g/3g switching that is cauing your problems.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mgs333:
i have this issue too.

my phone will drain ~5-7% every hour in standby. and when wifi is on it drains 2% every minute even staying on the home screen and me not doing anything on the phone.
