Today I was recording my baby doing something fun and at same time I received a call. I didn't answered immediately, recorded a little more and then answered.
When I watched the movie I heard a kind of horn on the movie. I made some tests and realized it's the vibration from incoming call that's captured by microphone.
How to avoid this? The on screen notification it's enough for me, if I'm recording I don't need vibration, I'm looking at the screen (at least most of the time)

Has anyone figured out how to record phone calls on the XDA2??
I have tried just about every recording app out there and the only way I have been able to do this is using the phone on speaker and recording in notes or sound recorder.
:shock:
From my experience no need to use the speakerphone.
Just using the phone on your ear will record both yourself as the other side (maybe my volume is higher than yours :? )
Pity though one cant use this when using a headset or carkit . . .
Thanks, it works.... I didnt think that it would. I would like to get an app to automatically record phone calls, any ideas??
Don't know what is wrong with mine, but when I press the record button during a normal conversation, my voice is recorded and the voice of the other person is very soft very soft... Hard to hear.
What could I do about that?
It happens to me exactly the same as j_met.
I can hear only my voice...
@ edsub
Can you hear both sides equally loud and clear?
Thank you
I hear the other side just a bit softer than myself.
Good enough in a quiet environment.
My in-call volume is set half-way.
Same for me and very annoying. I think this dumb device only records what you say to the microphone. If you can [barely] hear the other person, it's only because your volume is so high that the microphone picks it up..
why in the world would you need to record only what YOU say?? I think it must have took at least 3 engineers to build it this way.

BTW, I have W2003SE 2.02 ENG installed and still no improvement

Ever heard of memo-recorders??
Recording a phone call is a nice extra (its posibility is nowhere stated/promised). Pity it doesnt work with all devices.
Hmm it seems to work well with mine in all places except very loud environments. In some instances it would not have been possible for it to have picked up the other end through the speaker (too much noise) but it still records them... not sure how it works!

You may also want to read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=513&more=1 on this subject - it gives a nice overview of what you can expect from PPC PE devices and what applications there're to (even automatically) record phone calls.
I have seen this briefly mentioned in a couple of other threads. I am noticing very choppy call quality for the first bit of a phone call. It starts out without being able to hear anything at all on my side. Then starts very choppy. Most of the time I hang up and Phone back with a good connection.
when i call back the person mentions that my side was choppy as well ...
this phone replaced a magic that i did not have any call issues with.

the low call volume is also driving me nuts ... but i knew that before i bought it.
having to answer a call by unlocking it is irritating. I do use the phone as a phone foremost.
When recoring video on the Incredible, if it receives an incomming phone call it stop the recording. Does anyone know of a setting/method to ignore the call and keep recording?
Recording has already stopped before the accept/decline buttons are displayed.
The only way I have found so far is to put the phone in Airplane mode before recording. Which is a little bit of a pain to have to keep switching back and forth.

you really expect any "phone" to prioritize video recording over phone calls, do you really record video that much that you cant do airplane mode everytime you want to record a video withouth being "interrupted" hmm
Yes I do expect my phone prioritize video over a call. It doesn't have to interrupt the recording. You can't always put your phone in airplane mode. I have a 2 year old. When something amazing happens that I want to capture I don't have time to switch into airplane mode. I remember capturing his first steps. Imagine a call ruining that. You act as though a phone is just a phone. I guarantee the average person texts more that they call. The "phone" has evolved into something much more than just taking calls. They can easily make a call banner that appears at the top of the phone and gives you the option to stop what you are doing or not. That's pretty simple. Also with streaming apps on the side how are going to stream and be in airplane mode at the same time? Just because something isn't useful for you doesn't mean everyone shares your opinion. So in short stfu.
Anyone else experiencing super low microphone volume when using hangout calls on speakerphone/video calls? The other person i'm calling says they can barely hear me.

yes, very much so. I may have found a weird workaround as this was annoying me for some time. You must leave the call screen up and let the first couple rings happen with speakerphone off. Then switch to speakerphone and do not leave the screen or turn off the call screen until the call is initiated. After that mess that i stumbled upon, i could be heard much better when making a speakerphone call with hangouts. Also, make sure not to cover both the front speakers or the mic in the back. Basically you must hold the phone in your hands as I believe laying it down on either face will obstruct mics.... Obviously a flaw that should be worked out I would hop with software or hangouts updates. I have opened a complaint thread on the google hangouts forums. I suggest you go there and explain that you have the problem too so that it may be looked at a bit more...
Thanks, posted on the Hangout support forum, so one else replied and said they have the same issue as well. Unfortunately though, I can't get your trick to work for me, super low mic volume unless I put my mouth right next to the top speaker grill. Hopefully this gets fixed, I think my wife is tired of seeing my chin during video calls.
I'm experiencing the same problem but with WhatsApp calls. It also happen on normal phone calls where there's no sound coming or going out, have to hang up and try the call again.
Anyone notice the speakers are only good at 100%.. Lower it to 90-80% and I can barely hear them, standing at about 1ft - 1.5ft
No news on this? Renders speaker calls on Hangouts, Viber etc useless.
Also, where on Google Forums did you post?
Hello all, I'm new here and have a question for you.
I am running a SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 Version 5.0.1
I frequently make short time-laps recordings and I'm missing phone calls.
I place my phone on the tri-pod to record but when someone calls in I can see someone is calling but it never rings.
I don't care about the noise it makes cause my videos have no noise. Is there a way to still have my phone ring while I'm recording?
