[Q] Voice Recorder - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Been searching for last several hours and not resolution. Got the Gear and one of the apps is a voice memo which then transfers to the phone (Verizon GN3) for future playback. Problem is that when trying to playback on the phone of that file, there is no sound whatsoever. Checked all volume settings on phone and no reason for the silence. Just to make sure I "shared" them back to myself and played just fine on the PC.
Anyone know why this would not work? It's nice to have memo feature on the watch. While not the only thing it can do, it was one I was looking forward to use. Any ideas from anyone?

Music during my calls

When I saw the Nokia N91 that my neighbor owns, I thought it was a nice, bulky hard drive that can also make calls. I remember though that one day he calls me, and he accidentally hits his play button and music started to stream through his phone. I told him, "Hey! Turn that s*** down!" He then said that it was his phone, not his stereo.
I wonder... is there some way to bypass the audio in the 8125 to the phone gateway? Maybe some program out there anyone can refer me to? That's a really neat function and I want it.
I know that Voice Commander does pass its audio to the earpiece during a call, I'm sure theres a way to pass audio to a call.
im also looking for a way to get music to play during calls, any1 know how?
found it
nevermind, i found was i was looking for...
if any1 comes across this having the same problem in the future, check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313214

Good, this topic was noted once before. I'm checking it out right now.

Notification sounds halts/stops/pauses all other audio playback via headset

Ok guys/gals, this is my first post ever and I'm pretty sure I've looked and searched all of the Xperia threads for a solution to this issue I'm having with my X1i.
If i'm playing music (using WMP or the Media Panel) with the Headset plugged in and a new SMS, MMS, e-Mail, or ANY type of notification pops up, the music (or any other audio) halts/stops/pauses/interrupts the music playback to prioritize the notification sound and then resumes the audio playback. I've looked at all the sound settings to see if there was a new option (headset options) to prevent this from happening but have had no luck...
Is anyone else having this problem?
The only solution I've had to work with so far is to uncheck the Play Sound box for all the notification options available in Sounds & Notifications and check the Display message, Flash light, and Vibrate options to let me know when I get a new message.
Xperia X1i
ROM Ver: 1.02.931.3
Dated: 08/29/08
Thanks in advance peeps..
I don't think it's possible to shut this off, Sony Ericsson phones have interupted the music since the first Walkman Phone.
Thanks Burrn, but since this is now a Windows Mobile device, surely there is a registry setting that could allow for the notification sound to be heard over any already playing audio.
At least every other windows mobile device I've had does this; so if music is playing and a notification pops up, the notify sound plays right over any audio simultaneously.
In other words, right now, if I'm using Windows Media player to listen to music and I get a text, my track pauses; I hear ONLY the notify sound; and then resume the track.
I want to be able to listen to my music, get a text and hear the notify sound over the playing track without it pausing the track to notify me of the event.
If one of you experts can perhaps look into the registry settings, I'm sure there has to be a way to modify this annoying setup. I think it would to do with the headset settings since it doesn't pause my music to notify when the headset isn't plugged in; it just plays the notify sound right over the track.
Any help?
Anybody else having this issue? Any more feedback would be greatly appreciated...thx.
I encountered the same problem with my X1,can anyone please help us?
i just find that i have almos the same problem

it is very annoying and i just give up to use x1 for music
Help!
can anyone look into this and help? it looks like this would make at least 3 ppl happy to resolve...thanks!

Hey togcbu, I just recently found a fix for that; but you have to know how and be willing to go into the registry; I use Total Commander to go into the registry
HKCU
ControlPanel
Sounds
InCallBuzz
open Sound (this should show notify.wma); and simply erase the sound file name and save... presto, no more annoying sound during your call when you get an SMS.

Streaming Audio To Bluetooth W/o A2DP

So I have been trying to figure this out for a while. But I figured maybe we could get some community involvment with it.
If you weren't aware:
In 1.5 you could dial ** on your dialer, hit Call and it would redirect all audio (music, games, notifications) to your paired BlueTooth headset.
This no longer works in 2.1 - if you dial ** you get the 'p' and then when you hit call it almost immediatiely disconnects. But you can hear the audio for a split second in the BT.
If anyone can figure this out - or maybe dig a little deeper into Dialer.apk?
Maybe just a few people typing random stuff into their dialer to see if anything will work.
EDIT:
SOOOOOOOOOOOO
Watching LOGCAT when I dial this it calls a SpecialCharSequenceMGR
MY GUESS:
This one is different than the 1.5 dialer - Maybe tonight I cna merge with success....we shall see. Unless someone else wants to take a look before then.
my question would be whether the dialer in 2.1 got an upgrade. i guess it did since this feature doesnt exist (obvs), so any reason you cant flash on a dialer from 1.5?
i dont know much about how the internals of them work otherwise id help in the search, well after i finish this semester in two weeks. yep yep.
pardon me if my reply was a bit simplistic and if you tried that already, then sorry :/
good luck!
bump.
Updated top post.
Looking forward to your results. Hope you succeed.
On my Hero, long clicking on the device in Bluetooth Settings (in both 1.5 and 2.1), allows me to change the settings of that bluetooth connection including turning on and off both Phone and Media audio.
My only problem is that they have never played well together. If I'm playing media and a phone call comes in, the media properly pauses, but the phone either switches in on the phone's speaker or is totally silent causing me to miss the call.
Bump for the hell of it and a question.
Does anyone know where Dialer is in a 1.5 rom? I downloaded a fresh 1.1 to grab the apk and its not in system/app...wtf???

I think this might be because you have an A2DP capable headset. Mine doesn't give me this option.
Ive been looking
I also have been looking for somthing along these lines, as well as some other members. I started this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=660519 earlier trying to get help, there are actually a few bounties out now....Check it out
Ok so if any one who knows more linux than I do can try to figure out how to pipe the audio from one output to another it would be cool.
I was thinking it would be something lile MediaPlaybackService | AudioHardwareMSM72XX
But I am not sure if that is even remotely close. It doesn't work for me, I guess we just need to get the right services.

Video Call Sound issues

This problem seems to be new.
Whenever I Video call, Skype or hangouts. My call volume is so low that i can barely hear the other person. Even with the volume turned all the way up in settings its still so low i can barely hear them. I thought maybe it was a hardware problem, however when i play music or even use speaker phone on a non video call the sound is loud and clear. Something seems to be switching the volume to a much lower setting right as the call picks up. Has anyone else seen this problem?
Verizon Galaxy Note 3 running Hyperdrive RLS 8
Hello... I'm posting almost a year after yours to say that I had the same problem with my Note 3 on JasmineROM 2.4.4. I never looked into it, because I didn't do video calls very often, and I just got used to using a bluetooth headset to make the calls.
I now have a Note 4 Developer Edition, and I gave the Note 3 to my wife. We did a video call this morning, and she said she couldn't hear me at all. So, the problem has come back. But, the problem is... she can't just use a bluetooth headset because we do video calls so that I can see my son when I'm not at home... and I want him to hear me. Good luck keeping a bluetooth headset on a toddler.
Did you ever find a root cause (or a solution) to this problem?
Thanks.

Non native phone app

All of a sudden last week, I am getting no sound on my GS4 when making calls--no outbound or inbound sound and neither side can hear. The call is going through. Voice recorder and playback indicate that it is not a mic or speaker problem. I have hard reset the phone to no avail. Every now and then, it will allow me to make one call but then it goes out again.
My question here, other than if anyone knows how to fix this, is if there is another phone application instead of com.android.phone that I can install and use instead of the native phone app? Phone is rooted.
