Sound Recorder

I accidentally found out that there is a sound recorder app in the Tab by it is kind of hidden. Anyone knows how to get it out to the surface, so it can be of good use?
Btw, I discover it when I try to upload a file from browser.

/system/app/SoundRecorder.apk => com.android.soundrecorder
It needs to be called from another application though, it's not a standalone app.

Thanks! But I can't seem to find an existing app that make use of the sound recorder (apart from video?).
Was hoping to be able to use it to record telephone conversation.

Volume +

Does anybody know if volume + works phonewide or just the stock music app? And if it does work phonewide how do I get pandora to heed my adjustments. I don't hear any change when I play around with it

I believe root is needed for full functionality. I'm using on stock and seems to help.

After enabling volume + did you go to android settings > sound > music effects and enable volume + there?
Works fine on my GSIII

Volume plus has its own app, you turn it up from there.
It works great for the external speaker/ringer volume!

Try emailing the apks to yourself. That's what I do and it works well.

Even easier if you have the Dropbox app on both devices.

If you want to use bluetooth, below is one way of doing it:
- install ES File Manager ("ESFM") on both devices
- Enable Bluetooth on both and pair the devices
- Start ESFM (both devices) Menu -> Settings -> Layout Settings and make sure that "Remove Bluetooth" is unchecked. (By default it is checked).
- Go to the Bluetooth Tab in ESFM on the device you want to transfer the files TO**
You should see the other ("FROM") device.
(Multi-) Select, Copy (in the Bluetooth Tab in ESFM), then switch to the Local tab & Paste.
** I think you will see a brief Toast notification that ESFM has started a server process of some sort; can't remember if it happens on both devices. In principle this is symmetric, so you should be able to transfer files in either direction.
cheers

Make a backup, email it to yourself, restore backup. This is done with titanium backup if you have root

[Q] Is it possible to replace S Voice with Google Now?

I am having trouble using S Voice on 3g. Google Now works better it seems. How can I get Google Now to be my default when activating voice dialing?

Use Home2 Shortcut. I can't pay the link but it's on the play store.
Step 1 Choose Voice Search.
Step 2 Choose very very short.
Step 3 Choose your launcher. (Touchwiz, Nova, etc)
Step 4 Do step 4.

Home 2 Shortcut worked for bypassing S Voice except for when I try to activate voice dialing from my Bluetooth earpiece. I had to freeze S Voice to get that to default to Google voice dialing.

Glad to help. I did finally edit step 3 to the correct action so that might help. Sorry about taking so long. I tried to edit earlier but there is a delay for editing new posts and then I went camping.
