recording both sides of the call =)

Dear wizard owners - could you please check how this call recording software works on your device.
http://1800message.com/default.aspx
in the end of that page there is a link for PMRecorder - there is cab file for it.
1) is it working in general?
2) does it record two parties well if used without headset?
3) does it record two parties if bluetooth headset is used?
4) what is quality of recording.
I am thinking to moving from jam to wizard or prophet only becouse of that software.

gluhov: if you're prepared to move phones for this feature, consider the gigabyte phones.

please give a link for that phone

PMRecorder does work well however you have to have all your conversations in speakerphone mode to pickup the person talking on the other end. The website says this is a limitation by the manufacturer (although not sure if the mean the HTC's, MS or the OEMs)

Excellent review of the GigaByte:
http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/articles.php?action=expand,46925
Not sure if it's available yet, but I wants it!
V

WOW!!
I wants it too - I'm beginning to think the Wiz is a bit of a dead loss anyway
You can't beat an old 6310i as a phone
The Gigabyte phone has got all the functions that the Wiz is missing - and look at that camera !!!

And the TV I think I'll wait for one as well. I need to upgrade in the next few months. I'm thinking either Atom or Gigabyte. But the Giga looks very very nice software wise. Don't like the styling much.. but the features Would be nice to get a rom dump of that. Oh, I think I've got one somewhere...

gluhov: If you are considering the gigabyte for the call recording, on reading the review it looks like it may have the same functionality as PMRecorder. As it says "you can record your own telephone conversations", I would clarification of what is meant by "your own conversations" To me this sounds like one sided recording, although i presume the speaker method would work here as well.
However it is a nicely feature packed device, i wouldnt mind getting my hands on one myself although i think i have gotten used to the Wizards keyboard and (slowish) speed now. I just want my A2DP!!!
Cheers

The recorder in the 'notes' application will happily record both sides as well - the other side will be a bit noisier/fainter, but unless you're recording for criminal evidence, that shouldn't be a problem. ( And keep in mind that many countries have laws prohibiting conversation recording unless you make this explicitly clear to the other side )
As for the Gigabyte - looks nice, specs-wise. However - no Edge? So definitely no UMTS/HSDPA. Not a huge loss, perhaps, but if you're aiming for the future anyway, it might be worth waiting for whatever they'll come out with next?

Guys - lets stop talking about these gygobyte.
PLEASE TEST THAT APLICATION AND ANSWER MY QUESTION - that will really help.

Gigabyte (Around US$700)and Atom (US$750) already for sales in Hong Kong for a while.
The REAL device of gigabyte is suck I'm sorry to tell you that.
The TV function ONLY support NTSC and which doesn't support PAL as they have mention. And the screen is too small. And there is serveral problem awaiting to fix.
1. Bluetooth A2DP issue. Auto disconnect once the device screen is off.
2. If incoming call pop up, if your didn't recived the call. The "incoming call" screen still there, even the other side already drop the line.
3. When open the function inside the phone. the device Vol will auto turn to silent. even no vibrate.
4.The camera is RED. Outdoor/ Indoor. All photo seems auto in RED tune.
New rom been release in Early Feb. But same problem still found.
And Atom is keep fixing their probelm. They are like haven't more than
one updat per month. And the device now is very smooth today. But I think there must be more update coming very soon.

Please read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=513&more=1 for a complete discussion of the subject.

of course i read it.
i just need an answer from real user

it doesn't record incoming audio. you'd have to get a htc typhoon(i think) smartphone device to do this.

Are you tru wizrd owner?

Doesn't work on my Wizard (Vario)

Yes I am. I actually e-mailed the company about this awhile back and heres what they told me.
"Techsupport to me 12/27/05
The Wizard does not support the dual audio path. the HTC Tornado and Cingular 2125 both support it, but the PPC Wizard does not. Sorry about that. It is a hardware limitation on the device.

hmm.
if you use speacker phohe - will it help to record second part or not?
Becouse on magician if you use it everything is recorded very well.

Nope, it just records my voice. The other's voice is very faint audible when set to speaker mode, but certainly not loud en clear enough to understand.

I have a Wizard and use PMRecorder. Although the other party is faint on a recording it is possible to hear and understand them.

Can someone hack the HBH-ds970 mp3 track id to work on PDA phones?

Regarding the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 wireless stereo bluetooth
http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.jsp?cc=us&lc=en&ver=4000&template=pip1&zone=pp&pid=10394
I've been told that you can get the Caller ID display working by installing this:
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/
But what i don't get is why when playing mp3 (using Pocket Player or any other equivalent program that can play mp3 files), the Track Info/ID simply won't display, and only works on Sony Ericsson phones. I mean AVRCP works with no program..i can fast forward/backward (although with a little lag) and adjust volume/play/pause etc.
Surely there must be a hack around this because if you can get it to display track ID on Sony Ericsson phones then surely you can get it to display on PDA phones..
Any ideas? Cheers!

er anyone

up again!!!!!!!!

!!!!!

I;m pretty sure this is not possible, You would have to know how to send commands so the headset would read them, which sorta needs a little info from sony-ericsson.
Theres a reason why it only works with Sony-ericsson phones.

may b kinda late reply ... sorry for tat,
i was tryin to get "the info" how do they communicate, but tat info may be only written in the secret book of sony ericsson, i m still tryin , but fortunately se is oing to release their first wm phone xpeara x1, which they are saying going to be perfectly compatible with these handsets and if we get a copy of rom to cook then .... guess what
so just hold tight and wait for may b 6 monts or so
regards

Can't wait to get the ds980 working with wm6 phone (Titan)

There's an app that sends those info into the SE watch right?
Maybe you should work with the developer there, coz I can't imagine it to be that big of a diff? (Hopefully?)

UP
Anyone ?

I have the SE headset and CallerID displays with my TouchXL with WM6. It does not display the track information, but the display is too small for that in my opinion anyway. There is likely something in the SE Walkman player that sends the MP3 information to the headset. My only thought would be to see if the SE P1 windows mobile device works and see if the settings/music player can be ported to another device. Sorry I don't have one to test...

video call on hdmini?

hi guys
i just wanted to know whether video call is possible on hd mini or not

I can't see it as an option on the stock HTC model, and there's no front camera, so probably no.

Some mobile phones like some Sony Ericsson 08-09 models without front camera have the option of Video Call but they use the one and single back camera.
Since HD mini supports 3g signal (i don't know much about signals) as the old sony ericsson phones, "normally" it CAN support video call but not with stock software.
I don't know if there is any way to find a software for a video call but should be nice!

I'm from Hyderabad, India and I too have purchased the LG Optimus 7 from Singapore (via a relative).
I have a cheapo bluetooth stereo headset, the Bluedio AV890.
While it worked perfectly fine with my older Nokia E51, the Optimus 7 does not recognize it. Will try another bluetooth device and tell you if it's a problem with the phone or the headset.

Hi, I have the following problem in my LG Optimus 7.
I have it connected with the A2DP supported bluetooth headset Plantronics Boyager Pro UC V2, and all the system sounds, including sms and email alerts go to the headset due to the A2DP support. With Ringtones it's fine. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks in advance.

hi,
I've just bought an optimus 7 as well (UK), and have the BLUETOOTH "perpetual searching" problem where it never finds any bluetooth device (despite me trying 3 bluetooth headsets which work just fine with every handset i've got from SE P900 through A HTC Touch Pro 2 - in fact all 3 show up when in pairing mode on the HTC screen while the LG just "searches")
I've called the UK LG support team who tell me this is NOT a hardware fault and they have MANY customers with the same problem - they say "its all microsoft's fault and are awaiting a software fix") .. they refuse to put this in writing !!!!!!!!!
Personally i think its a widespread LG design or manufactiuring/component fault as they have form for telling lies (either that or being systematically incompetant) to customers
I am about to write a formal letter to them asking them to confirm its a software issue and will be retified by a certain point in the future ... as a first step to dealing with the issue
I have had a pretty bad experience before with LG whereby for 6 months LG support were telling me the defective product would be rectified by a software update which never arrived - so we will see -

Hi!
I have the same problem!

me too.. bt not able to detect any device

the other issue i have with the optimus 7 is that the vibrate function doesnt work as well (yep i have switched it on in settings)
But it does work if i go in the the MFG engineers testing app and test the vibrate function there
... so it looks like maybe LG could be guilty here of sloppy firmware/testing .. and i wonder if its the same with the bluetooth like they say (maybe they used batches of different bluetooth chipsets which subsequent updates didnt suport)
LG .. LG .. LG .. ggrrrrrrr

same here
took the device to lg center.
because my device was bought in october it is not eligible for 1for1 exchange.
ppl at lg told me that we have to wait for microsoft update, although i really doubt that a new update will fix the bluetooth issue.

HW fault
I had the same problem right out of the box last November (no bt devices detected, only in very rare lucky cases).
Sent it in for repairs and since it came back some weeks later BT works so it seems like my device had a hw fault (or they updated some software, I dont know... but the case was opened)

had a letter back from LG (uk) stating that there was no defect (bluetooth)with the optimus 7 line ... the letter went on to say that the many reported user problems were due to different bluetooth chipsets used (kind of ridiculous lg opening the letter with the no defects line then ... LOL)
no explanation of why their support team were refusing to repair/replace and stating it was a software issue and to wait for an update and head office (per my letter) stating theres no issue - completely opposite
so now i have to write back asking lg how i get the phone fixed if their support team refuse to accept its a hardware issue
if only we had class actions in the uk ... LG need the mother of class actions right up their rectum !

I'm using Sony Ericsson MW600 for months now and always with me when I'm driving. Love the sound quality of listening to the music using this Hi-Fi Wireless headset.
After using it for a while I found the tricks to get it working properly.
i) whenever I did reset on my LG E900 (now NoDo, previous build also worked for me), I needed to do the pairing again.
ii) make sure you try several times (on and off for both LG E900 and MW600) until MW600 is found and displayed in LG E900. Once MW600 is found it will remain there until next LG E900 reset and you have to repeat all over again.
iii) take note that you can get connected to MW600 without it being displayed as bluetooth device in LG E900. But it will not be stable. The best is to have it displayed in LG E900. If not connected, it will show MW600 is disconnected.
iv) If MW600 is not displayed in LG E900, sometimes you can only listen to the music or only answering phone without the music as it goes to the speaker phone instead. Sometimes also the music quality will be really bad not like normal. Therefore to avoid all this, do the pairing until MW600 is displayed in LG E900. Again you need to do this once after LG E900 reset.
v) Once everything is working well, I can control volume, forward to next music or go back to previous music, off or on the music. Also, not all applications or games can use MW600. I can confirm Angry Bird can use it but SuperTube cannot.
vi) BTW, when playing music using Zune in LG E900, please go to Songs and select "shuffle all" or you can create your own playlist using your PC and transfer the playlist to LG E900.
Hope it will work for someone who wants to invest in MW600 but take note it is a bit pricy ... at least in my country.
BTW, MW 600 can work with iPhone 4, Nokia phone (Symbian), WM6.1 and of course WP7. I can also connect to my Notebook with Windows 7.

hi, as a follow up
its taken me 3 months to finally get LG to accept that this bluetooth issue is a fault and allow it to go in to their repair unit ...
just had it back today with an engineers report stating faulty motherboard replaced !!!!
LG in the UK are just aweful I.R.O. their warranty obligations ...
My advice (if youre UK) and they give you the runaround is to simply tell them you will be taking a small claims court action against them for the costs of the handset (or a replacement handset if you buy one and it costs more) plus your travel costs to/from court plus the court costs .. you can fill in the forms online and its only £20 or so
make sure you get things in writing/email/get names of LG staff and give them a couple of chances to remedy the situation and respond to your threat of court action.
Trading standards have received many complaints from LG customers along these lines so like i did make a formal complaint so its on file and at some point hopefully they will come down hard on LG
anyway I have touch wood a fully working phone now

Hi friends
GooDay to all...
Regarding the Bluetooth issue, I have tried every possible ways, finally when I called the LG, they simply says tht it is a HW fault and u have to replace frm where u have purchased...so I have to trvl all the way frm chennai to spore to settle the issue...
The 2nd worst part is...ZUNE....the marketplace is yet to be avlbl at India...sometime for a surprise the marketplace appears and with the same surprise it disappears... My friends I suggest u all to go for Andriod, Apple or Symbian phones than W7....

The stock rom doesn't have it and they haven't changed the Bluetooth app in ages so I wouldn't expect it any time soon.
It's on my long list of things to add to xdAuto but i've mainly been sorting out in-call issues and Bluetooth music so far.

Do you know any third party software can do this job?

If bluetooth call come as a pop up when call/receive call then very good
