I recently made the switch from a samsung galaxy s II to the xperia S and one feature i miss the most is having call recording.
now i know that it is usually a hardware issue but i know for a fact that samsung and sony ericsson(now just sony) have never had issues with call recording and never locked it down.
When i got my phone, i went on an app hunt in the market for an app that would record both sides of a phonecall automatically, loud and clear. Unfortunately, i haven't been able to find one yet.
does anyone know of an app they have tried and found to work on the xperia s?
bump... i hope someone knows of such an app...
I haven't got my Xperia S yet but once tried "Record My Calls" with my X10 and I remember it worked pretty fine. You can try it or search for other app oout there.

You'll need 2way call recorder patched Kernel and root...!!! In short, use DoomKernel...!!!
GS2 can do that with Total Recall without root. How can Xperia S do so? I have to keep warranty. Thanks

There are many "call recorder"... Which developer's you are using?
Hi, i also cant find any app. Tried at least ten and none works? if someone have found one, link would be welcome!
I'm buy & using CallRecorder v1.2.7 all working properly.
My Xperia S is rooted ICS.
Try it!
I too had an app on my X10 that allowed for 2 way call recordings, I cant recall the name off the top of my head (perhaps it simply was Call Recorder). What I do recall was it had a very simple icon of a red dot on a black background; perhaps that may help someone.
Thanks.

I cannot get video to work on Skype on my S3. Video is enabled in Skype Settings but still no joy. Has anyone else got this problem or know how to fix it? I can't find any thread about this. This is a deal breaker for me. If Skype doesn't work I will reluctantly return the S3 during my 14-day trial period.
Thanks
Works fine here. Just tested video calling 3G and WiFi with no problems.
Finger trouble or firmware version?
Skype v2.8.0.920
Edit:
The other party (Recipient) must also have video enabled.
You could also lower the video quality and test.
Sent from my GT-I9300T using xda premium
works fine here as well.
Thanks for the replies. Still a mystery. I have the latest firmware and the other party definitely has video enabled. I switched to other devices and it worked fine. The front camera does work but there's no option to select when I make a Skype call (over WiFi). If the other party calls me I can see the options but it still doesn't work and returns to a black screen. Lower-res test done as well but no luck.
I just can't see what's preventing a video call. I can do this quite successfully from my tablet, old phone and desktop but not the S3. I have uninstalled and downloaded the software again but it still doesn't work. Grrrrr!
Try a video call on Gtalk to test. Obviously check video is enabled in its settings for both parties.
If working, try wipe data/cache in settings/applications/downloaded or all/Skype. You well need to setup Skype settings, login etc again.
If still no good, reinstall Skype
Sent from my GT-I9300T using xda premium
I did clear the cache. And one other thing: I can't close Skype. I have to use a Force Stop to quit the application. I've tried this several times and it always remains running unlike any other program I close (eg, swiping to the left from the running programs list). It doesn't show up in the task manager as a running program but the icon is still there on the top left of the phone. I wonder if some other process/application is interfering with it.
It's reassuring that Skype is working for others. I'm on O2 - could they have set up something to prevent Skype working? That's not my experience with other phones from O2 and I doubt that is the problem.
So did you try Gtalk (to confirm the problem is just with the Skype app) and also reinstall fresh from Google Play?..........

Thanks, I'll check them out.
I've got what seems to be a fairly simple problem with Skype, so I thought I'd post here because Skype users are likely to read it ! :
Outgoing voice-only calls seem to work OK, but when I answer an incoming call, the GS3 screen goes completely black (regardless as to whether the phone was by my face or not).
I tried pressing buttons etc, didn't seem to be able to get it back until the caller hung up.
On a plus note, the call quality was great, but I really do need to be able to hang up the call!
Am I missing something obvious?
According to my tests, Skype video works when I'm connected to WiFi but I was never able to do the same under 3G.
I'm on a high bandwidth connection..but the person on the other side keeps saying that the video quality is ****ty. I have the Video Qualty setting on 'High'. The recieving quality is just great. Its only the video sent from my end. Is it the same for everyone? or just me?

I dont have enough posts to ask this question in DevSwift1's topic.
Rom is great. It really runs fast! Instalation was without problem.
I quite often use loudspeaker and I noticed when loudspeaker is on microphone is muted and cannot be unmuted as long as loudspeaker is on.
So there is no posibility of handsfree talk.
I deleted cache/data for Phone and Touchpal dialer, restarted but nothing changed.
So I just wanted to report the possible bug and ask if maybe anyone has idea what still I can do?
Rom is great but I frequently need to use handsfree mode. Right now I can hear, but I can't talk.
Thanks!
man, just notice, cant turn on loud speaker

I tried the layout fix. Didn't help unfortunately.
If it matters, I instaled JBv2 over Stock ICS .89 ROM
Tried reinstalling JBv2 over first JBv2 instalation.
Imediately after second install i tested it (before restoring Sony backup so it was fully clean install) but still didn't work.
I followed install instruction to the letter (full wipe etc).
Only difference was that in both installs I didnt had to wait 10 min. Maybe just 2-3 mins.
I just realised mic doesnt work on video recording either (stock camera).
I am not the only one having issues with mic. I know for at least one more person.
Does anyone else has this problem?

Hello,
I'm considering the idea of getting a Gmate+(http://www.skyroam.com/) for my SGP5 but I have one remaining question. Ive searched all over the internet and couldnt find any answers so it must not be a big problem.
1. Will the gmate app notify me of sms/calls on my SGP or will i always have to go by the vibration on the gmate?
2. If the app wont notify me...is there a toggle switch or someway to disable the vibration on the gmate when i dont want it?
Because if the app will notify me then I'll just be getting the plain Gmate without vibration.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Nevermind...i found my answer soon after posting haha
Number 27 at http://www.skyroam.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=83&..
As an owner of the Gmate+, I'd be happy to answer any questions you had about it, as I've had mine for some time. The app is a bit rough around the edges, it doesn't have nearly the polish of the android apps for phone and testing, but they work. Texts and calls pop up notifications on the SGP, with calls acting like a standard phone call on a smartphone, taking over the lock screen, etc. it also causes the SGP to vibrate or make whatever noise it makes for a notification. The GMate also vibrates, but it is loud, and quite piercing, as the device is very small and light. this, however, can be turned off. There are a number of checkboxes which dictate when the Gmate will vibrate, such as a connection, incoming call, texts, etc. One other thing is that I've never been able to get the web browsing to work, and the more I look into it, the more it looks like a bug with samsung devices on Gingerbread, so having an ICS rom might fix that, the other thing you need to keep in mind is that the app says it's not compatible for a reason, it will disconnect every 5 minutes or so, when the device goes to sleep and shuts bluetooth off, but at app I found called Bluetooth KeepAlive fixed that, even though it was a couple bucks, I think it was worth it.
Sorry for the wall of text, but in summary I guess is that the Gmate works and is a good device, but it's a little rough in how it's used and there are a few hoops you have to jump through to get it to work.
Hi,
Thanks that helped a lot silentdoh!
So where are the options for vibration? Are they in the app i assume? Because i looked all through the settings and didnt find them.
And im on cm10.1 and i got the app from the play store so it was all compatible it said
So do u think the Plus is worth it for the vibration or not?

I believe the app shows the option when you have the Gmate+ connected, because why have the option when the other device doesn't support it? When I got it, there was no difference in price, it really depends if you can deal with an annoying vibration noise, most of the time I just turn it off, but it is nice to know when it's connected if you can't look at your SGP. I personally don't use mine anymore, but I still love it as a backup, one thing to note is that it is not compatible with 3G speeds, so you'll be using 2G the whole time, and that it uses a standard sim card, not a microsim. Also, the signal is not too great, I sometimes have issues with service unless I take the Gmate out with my phone as I answer or send a text, not sure if there's any way to fix that.
Thanks for all your information. It helped me a lot to decide what to do. As of now im gonna hold off and just see how everything works on my new dumbphone.
Would it at all be possible to port this feature(http://support-us.samsung.com/spsn/detail.jsp?ctg_id=209&sub_ctg_id=&live_id=8) to the galaxy player 5? For me it would be an OK alternative to the Gmate.
Would this be a simple ROM port or would it require more then that?
I would port the ROM myself if i knew it would work, but right now I use my Galaxy for work and and everyday personal stuff and cm10.1 doesnt backup in cwmSso im not going to try until i get more opinions and the feature would be really nice on cm10.1! Any thoughts?

Weird. I replied to this myself after I got the phone. Call recorder by @SkAlvex works perfectly. It even records while using Wi-Fi calling which my s6 could never do. Thanks for the reply though.

BoldBeast recorder is another option that has almost always worked with every phone. They have great support and it's free. Root is not required (not attainable anyway, except on the EU version, for now).
I've tested it on the G5 and it works (though I haven't given bluetooth recording a try yet). Wi-fi calling recording does not work though.
Edit: Actually it works with Wi-Fi calling! Sweet!
If anyone is still reading this - don't upgrade to Android 7.
I did upgrade my LG-H860 (dual sim G5) and then of course discovered that call recording APIs are either removed or hidden - no software works!
Now looking for a way to downgrade back to Android 6.0.X....
