TyTN - recording phone conversations

Do you know any software for Windows Mobile 5 to recording conversations automatically ? I have 1gb card , can record over 20 hours of quite good quality conversations.
Do you know any soft which will do it automatically after I answer or call to somebody ?

try vito audionotes

I have just looked on the Vito Technology site but on the PPC version it mentions nothing about telephone conversation recording so I am assuming it doesn't offer this feature on the PPC, just on Smartphones .. is this correct?

I've tried "Vito Audionotes" and "Resco Audio Recorder" and both got the same problem on TyTN; both only records your side so are useless...

Yes, it is a problem Viva, the way I have got round this is by using the Tytn headphones to make a call but I just wear one earpiece in my ear and I hold the other earpiece next to the inline microphone (you could even tape it there).
I have only ever used the inbuilt note recorder before so when I saw this thread I was hoping that there was 3rd party software out there that would record the other side of the conversation automatically so I wouldn't have to do it this way.
Anyway, thought I would mention my method in case it helps anyone

How about this

1) Download either or both of applications below - NOTE: PM Recorder will only work with some Smartphones, not Pocket PC Phone Edition devices.
what is the differebce between PPC Phone and Smartphone ?
I thought my TyTN is a Smartphone but now I think it's a PPCPhone ..
So, there is nothing which can record conversations. It's a pity , phone with so big storage should have this option built-in... what you think ?
The option with some server which will keep my records it's not good for me, I wouldn't let anybody to send my conversations anywhere..
Ok, I will be still looking for some solution and let you know if find any..
Cheers guys.

Yes, TyTn is a PocketPC phone. The most obvious difference is that Smartphones do not have a touchscreen and have a numeric pad.
My C500 (Typhoon) Smartphone wouldn't record telephone conversations either, so I don't think that it's PPC specific. The incoming call simply isn't passed through the OS for it to be recorded.
I read somewhere (sorry, can't remember where) that it was a conscious decision by Microsoft as some operators didn't want that functionality and they were trying to get as many operators onboard as possible. But Nokias can record conversations - even without a beep notification to the caller - so this info may not be correct.

Guys, please DO use the forum serach engine. I've long answrred these question in ALL call recording-related threads started before June 2006.

LivePVR
Moi herra Ruotsalainen. Your article doesn't mention LivePVR from Softtrends. I tried it and it works, but not for the purpose I wanted it. I am looking for a proper answering machine for WM5, like SmartAnswer I had on my old Nokia 6600.

Hmm...
LivePVR does not work in recording phine calls. They finally admitted this on the handango product page, too. You will need to use it in "speaker" mode like all others... Its just technically not possible.

Well, I have just read the article about recording via the speakerphone but I still prefer my method which I mentioned earlier in this thread.
My method records both sides of the conversation, I think the recording I get is better quality than when you record via speakerphone and the conversation remains private ... I am quite happy with my workaround

When I have wizard, i use SPWM5CallRec.cab (somewhere on the forum) and ....hmm it's record all? (don't remember for 100%).

It will not record the other party's voice, as has already been pointed out in my article (see link above).
However, i's still teh best call recorder app available for the PPC, particularly if you use the WAV postconverter I've discussed in the article.

They did false advertising? Everyone who paid for that pretty crapy app could sue them for that. After all, the day after they've released LivePVR I've pointed out in my review it's NOT able to record the other party. That is, they were surely able of the app's inability of this.

Yup, it directly doesn't mention it; however, the Audio Recorder Bible (linked in from the PMRecorder article; http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/112005SoundRecorderApps.asp ) does and it also links in the related LivePVR review ( http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1218&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 )

The extend of my test was one phone call. I realise now that I did the test with the speaker on.
Microphone picking up the sound from the speaker . . . bleeding edge, huh?

So finally...
I started this thread once again , I know, there is a lot about that on this forum. I just wanted to put this in to TyTN section, because I was dreaming that this model has no hardware restriction and maybe somebody wrote good app for recording phone calls.
I see, it's still impossible to do that on such a gadgetty mobile phone...
It's a pity....
If anybody find the solution please continue this thread or even send me a message please.

I'm continuously pushing the issue in internal MS forums. Hopefully HTC / MS changes its approach and does implement what Nokia, Ericsson, Siemens etc have been offering for 7-8 years.

Hi. I didn't find any problem with my X1's ring tone. Please don't select mp3 or polyphonic ringtones that has very low recording volumes, because X1 will not be able to enhance the low volume of such tones. Try this tone, like phones.mp3, which i donwloaded from SE X1 site. This tone is very loud for me, if it is not in your phone then there might be a problem.
Note also the position of the speakers in X1, its at the bottom area left and right side, almost to the same level of CALL and END botton. When you are holding your X1 or if it its inside the pouch then the speakers are obstructed, giving you a low ring sound.

Skype to internal speaker

Hi to all enthusiast! my first post here
I've been searching through XDA forum and haven't found solution yet how to make Skype useful - to route the sound from external to internal speaker.
I tryed audioroute, audioswitch and none of it worked on Omnia I8000. Does maybe someone knows the solution how to make it work?

Not top but maybe you could live with the solution discussed here: http://www.modaco.com/content/i8000-verizon-sch-i920-omnia-ii-http-i8000-modaco-com/294694/audio-routing-to-earpiece/

This link redirects me to main page...

try this: tinyurl.com/yjr5ypf
But this is post interesting:
ok, I'm answering my own questions.... I found the solution, and no need for any software!
Just dial *#0002*28346#, you'll enter the engineering mode. Choose in menu to SetForce audio path to "Voice Receiver", thereafter all speaker sounds goes to the earpiece. When you're done, go back to the menu and release the force audio mode and all sounds go back to speakers.
Working wonderfully for Skype! No longer a need for me to put on the headphone whenever I Skype with the i8000! I can just talk like in a normal phone call!

alarm ring

hi i have some questions
1. i want to change the alarm ring i know how to that but it gives me rings that came with the device i want another ring like song or something how i do that?
2. all the time that i press on the button near the battery to see what apps are open and close them i see active sync app even without i open it
how i stop this app?
thanks a lot

anyone??????????

my advice is for you is to read the XDA..WIKI PAGE relating to
the HTC BLACKSTONE @ touch hd.....link here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Blackstone
regarding your activesync problem it is a common problem and discussed in this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Blackstone_Tweaks_Tricks_Tips
..halfway down page you will see heading.....
" ActiveSync Auto-Run Fix
[edit] How to stop ActiveSync from turning itself on all the time"....
follow instructions ..
it works .(i have done it a few times after a hard reset.>!!!)
i would also advice you to used a decent task manager ..the one you use is very limited .plenty 3rd party.. task manger around ,..just search..!!
if you read the wiki carefull ..you will see answers to your
eg...ringtone, alarms..sounds question !!
... but here, just to consider ,is some advice..
some 3rd party alarms ,use mp3's..
but otherwise drop a .wav file( think it is less than 30 kb, in size ?? ) in device/windows directory ...then select it as normal in you sounds options
good luck
willcor

thank you a lot but where can i find a 3rd party im really new with this and i dont have idea with this
thank you again!

for a reliable task manager i use ..DOTFRED's TaskManager..version 3.3
http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm#v3.3
(it is a free software )
it is finger friendly and i have been using ,previous versions ,for a long time
very good taskmanager ..with a lot of functions..eg processes,.regedit etc.etc
and make sure it is for.... WM6/WM6.1 ..( cab file )
..if you have original ( stock ) ROM ..on your device /phone
otherwise, plse check other version...available ?
...but i know of a few others ,that is just as good ??...
e.g MMTaskmanager ,SHOWCASE,ARKSWITCH,XTASK ..ETC
(all can be traced here(XDA ) if you search...
further....
3rd party... alarm applications
eg.."G-ALARM". but is paid software..(very good ) uses mp3
you can also read this thread about alarm....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387867
or just type .."alarm" in you XDA seachbox( above ) this page and look at search results ,plenty ..?
finally..i again stress..read the wiki..this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Blackstone/Blackstone_for_noobs ...
........and this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Blackstone/Hints&Tips
...might help...to understand a bit more about your BLACKSTONE @ TOUCH HD
good luck

thank you very very very muchh!!! im appreciate that

3 most worst problems of our Mini

3 most worst problems of our Mini​
1)Problem with Lock Screen. In missed calls wrong number is appearing.
2)Problem with in-call volume. After phone restarting, we have to push the side button during a call in order to increase the volume, because the initial level is approximately 40%.
3)HTC has released an update which supposes fix the problem with in-call volume. Are you sure that this update fix the problem which is written above (2) ? In case of “Yes”, could we install only the second “update file” (cab) in order to get rid of in-call volume ?
I bring to your attention to all issues above. Please for your cooperation in order to find a solution finally !! Furthermore, if someone has found a solution, I personally beg to publish the solution. Summing up, please try to keep this post ACTIVE !!! We have to pay lots of money for this wonderful mobile. However, it’s a really pity that these problems discomfort us !!! I am sure that together we can find a solution FINALLY !!!

I totally agree with you.
The first problem has occurred more than once on my mini.
The fact is that he always show the previous missed call.
So when your father calls you and you miss it.
And then the next day your sister calls and you miss that call again,
the lock screen will say that you missed a call from your father.
Strange that this has not been fixed yet, since this will just be a minor error.
My best guess is that they search the first missed call (missedcall(1))
where the function is maybe starting to count from 0.

Exactly my friend ! Ragarding second problem about in-call volume ? Do you have the same problem ?

Yes, but...
While the problems listed are serious, to me the very worst problem is the volume. Laid flat, the device is inaudible. Also I find the volume control was placed on the wrong side of the device. I think it should been on the right side but then I am a righty. Also I have big hand and end up changing the volume unintentionally. Because of the extreme sensitivity of the screen and placement of the talk/send soft key, my thumb pad (?) has placed numerous calls. This is correctable but one wonders if anybody at HTC played with the phone before the design was finalized.

I must say that the volume hasn't bothered me yet.

It's really strange !!! Some people have problem with volume level and some others not !!!
Your comments guys... Give all a try in order to fix this problem FINALLY

More serious problems:
1. Phone tends to freeze every few weeks. Only solution is to do hard reset, losing all data from your latest sync.
2. While having a numeric keypad is a great plus for a touch screen device, this great feature of HD mini is buggy. At times, it doesn't know if it's operating under T9 or under abc mode. The worst problem is that it tends to save every erroneous typing into the custom dictionary, with no option to ask for confirmation. While the custom words you really need requires a confirmation press on the word. Often, the custom words you want added to the dictionary are added erroneously, mispelled and cannot be modified or deleted. This is one very messy virtual keyboard.
3. Some regular and important options are restricted. Like the option to hide headers and scroll bars in mobile excel is greyed (unavailable). For no particular reason, other than to cripple the app.
4. Weather tab is buggy and a tremendous resource hog. Disable it and avoid it at all cost. It gobbles up close to 10Mb of ram, and makes the Sense unstable.
5. HTC Messaging is extremely slow. Cannot effective handle more than a few hundred messages.
6. Editing contacts is a mess. Copy and paste is disabled in many of the fields. Editing contacts will often freeze up the phone for a long time. Sometimes reaching several minutes. (Don't reset the phone no matter how long it takes, it will come around. It's just extremely slow and inefficient.)

I once emailed them about "wrong missed-phone appearing on the Lock Screen", you know what was their reply? (actually, you can guess)
pls HARD-RESET! .
Wow, so simple?
Hard-reset won't be the solution, bc, I have had hard-reset more than once, the problem still can not be solved.
Hopefully, HTC will soon issue some kind of patch for this.
Best regards

It won't work. HTC tech guys are so lazy and do not know how to solve problems. They always go for quick fix that won't work at all. Only to pretend they know what to tell you.
Some of the quick answers they usually go for are:
1. Go to service center for replacement (even if it's just a small software bug)
2. Hard reset (without even understanding why)
3. Soft reset
All these quick answers cannot solve any problems.

2)Problem with in-call volume. After phone restarting, we have to push the side button during a call in order to increase the volume, because the initial level is approximately 40%.

Unfortunately, they almost never read your complaints. All they do is to issue standard pre-composed responses. Which will not contain any answers to your questions. This is their method. Of all the complaints i've written to them, none were ever answered.
SMS tab doesn't show flipping pages. Just simple text in a black background. The only effects you get is the twisting of the text when being swiped away. I think only big brother HD2 gets the flipping page effect for SMS.

Good luck on that. In our country, the HTC "hotline" is permanently connected to a fax machine. The only response you ever get is fax tone. Nobody answers the call.
