Automatic Call Response - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hi all,
I have a question. I get a lot of phone calls when driving, both from landlines and mobiles. Tasker handles the job of messaging mobiles, but what I really need is an app (anything actually) that can answer the call with a message that I'm driving. And no, I do not want the call to go to voice mail. I want the caller to know I'm driving, without their having to wait.
Any ideas are welcome.

Wrong Section!
Post it in Q&a or general!
I don't understand that why can't u see a simple thing that this is "Android Development Section"!

Post in the correct section next time.
The closest you can get is have Tasker play a message using the speaker.
I highly doubt any app can do that. Android shouldn't allow an app to do that as it's a serious issue (imagine ads playing while you're talking to someone).

Yes ive searched, and ive done research, but I use it for voicemail right now. Would getting a number benefit me at all? Btw i dont pay for my plan so that doesnt even matter

But how is it different?
Here's the idea. Add your Google Voice number to your Friend/Family list. Then use the Google Voice callback app (or use the Google Voice mobile website to set up a call). This will create a phone call that will start with your phone ringing. When you answer the phone, it will then begin ringing your other party. The genius here is that the incoming number on the caller ID is your Google Voice number. No minutes used.
Another bonus is that if you change phone companies, you don't have to change your Google Voice number. Assuming that is the number you are handing out to people, you'll always get calls. Add on to the list superior voicemail, and much better texting and it starts to really shine.
If I am diligent, I can go an entire month using minimal minutes. Since I am sharing minutes, this makes the other users on our plan very happy. =)

It is also helpful for people who would like to split their work life from their non-work life. You can specify conditions to connect a call to a work phone or home phone between specific hours, or you can use one phone with multiple voicemail greetings for different groups of people (family, friends, work, etc.). It lets you screen/block calls from specific or unknown people and send them directly to voicemail. You just have a lot more control over things.
Good point! I had forgotten about those customizations! It is especially amusing to set up a custom voicemail greeting for one specific person. When John calls and it says, "Hey John, leave a message old man!"

[Q] iSecretary for Android ?? [answering machine app]

I have searched almost everywhere, but could not find this. I am surprised no such app for android exists
So should I conclude it is impossible due to some restriction in android OS to record incomming call or to play a message in incomming call, and hence, not possible to make an answering machine app ??
An app that has the features like isecretary has for windows mobile???
Why me and many others like me want this:
we do not have any voicemail service like hullomail, youmail etc available in our country.
voicemail is not free and is heavily charged
also no google service does this in our country afaik
Can any expert android developer tell me in detail as to why making such an app is not possible ??
ps: if it is at all possible I am ready to pay for this project :s
__^BUMP^__
any1 ??
_^BUMP^__
Don't wanna multi-post but I really really need this
Can any1 point me in some direction ?? or just a hint maybe :s
Bumping here again after so many days .. hoping somebody might have some knowledge regarding this

I'm not so sure many App programers visit these forums. Even something basic would be nice. It would only work on a Rooted phone however.
There are many people on xda with good knowledge about Android and its possibilities.. But as you said, I don't think anyone of them cares about whats going on in this forum.
People are asking questions and same average users are trying to answer their questions by guessing stuff.
Nobody even with a little knowledge is trying to answer the question, as to why is this not possible!!!!

Probably because between their real job and their families, their free time is taken by developing roms or apps that make your phone awesome, while usually getting very little in return. Whatever time is left over, I hope they spend enjoying themselves or relaxing.
If it's that important, either learn to do it yourself or pm a developer and ask them (nicely!) if it's possible.
It's improbable that such an app would be possible. An internet connection and/or call forwarding would most likely be a requirement, which is not what you're asking for.

This seems to be a problem and a major complain from Android devs. There is no API to control the audio from incoming calls. Google problably doesnt include APIs to avoid privacy issues.
Im not sure about audio from you in a call if there are APIs for it.
The program, in theory with these APIs, is possible as it is very simple.
There is undocumented APIs which people have used to record audio from incoming calls. You need root and someone they dont work.
So if you want this then yes, you are either going to have to pay someone, learn how they have (using root and undocumented APIs) made it possible to record incoming voice from calls, or wait for Google to release call and voice related APIs.

In SDK 14 this has been added (maybe with workarounds it can be helpful to what you want):
Voicemail Provider
The new Voicemail Provider allows applications to add voicemails to the device, in order to present all the user's voicemails in a single visual presentation. For instance, it’s possible that a user has multiple voicemail sources, such as one from the phone’s service provider and others from VoIP or other alternative voice services. These apps can use the Voicemail Provider APIs to add their voicemails to the device. The built-in Phone application then presents all voicemails to the user in a unified presentation. Although the system’s Phone application is the only application that can read all the voicemails, each application that provides voicemails can read those that it has added to the system (but cannot read voicemails from other services).
Because the APIs currently do not allow third-party apps to read all the voicemails from the system, the only third-party apps that should use the voicemail APIs are those that have voicemail to deliver to the user.
The VoicemailContract class defines the content provider for the Voicemail Provder. The subclasses VoicemailContract.Voicemails and VoicemailContract.Status provide tables in which apps can insert voicemail data for storage on the device. For an example of a voicemail provider app, see the Voicemail Provider Demo.

lol what is your problem dude?? are you some sort of messiah ?
The point of these forums is people helping out each other and sometimes those with more knowledge than the average user, also jump in to the rescue. If those developers didn't have time apart from their daily life, the Q&A thread would never be created in the first place. And there are people, who are not developers, but have a much better android knowledge and are helping people on these forums.

My humble request to you is, if you don't know anything regarding this, and cannot understand our problem, and haven't read other thread like these from the last one year.. just mind your own business please and let us deal with our problem.
We are still here // still posting.. because we still hope someone with knowledge would read these threads someday and reply a meaningful reply.

yes, I have been reading regarding this lately, but I wasn't so sure until now. So this is a fact now that this is not possible in "normal" case (well, this almost answers my main question) as we don't have the APIs from google to help develop an app which is able to manipulate incoming call. And they do have a good reason for this i agree - privacy issues.

what arjas and i am looking for
We have an answering machine and voice mail available on the Samsung Start GT-5233A where you can set up the answering machine easily. It plays a greeting when you do not pick up and if he caller wishes, they can record a message as well.
This is a built in application. I believe Arjas and i are looking, trying to find a similar application for android.
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 but no luck so far.

Answering Machine for Android
Though There's no straight app for this, u can combine 2 apps to get the Answering Machine.
1) Auto Call Answer
2)auto call recorder.
of-course there are lots of similar applications too for each type. install both apps from the market.
when ever u don't answer the the call for certain number of rings the 1st app picks the call and plays the voice u recorded for the caller.But it cant record the callers voice.
Thats where the 2nd app comes in handy.It will record all the incoming calls irrespective of whether u lifted or the auto responder lifted.
When ever u find time u can check the recordings which are saved mostly by the number and time.
For the time being this is the only solution we have.
Also mind u,In the calls recorded the callers voice is very low in most of the android devices.Blame google for not giving API for that.So what the apps generally does is it will record from the mic resulting in poor quality.
I also observed that android devices with honkong firmware and arabic firmwares
the recording quality is good.I think the API is buit-in for that firmware.As recording calls in their countries is legal.
Unfortunately in India call recording is not legal.so is in most of the countries.
So the trick is to flash ur cell with honkong(hhkk) or arabic(jpxx) firmwares and u have the rec option right away in dailer options.Then try installing those two apps.
I am using Galaxy Note initially was on Indian firmware now i changed it honkong version and enjoying the rec fecility which is crystal clear.
But as u said when other brands like symbian,windows are offering this app theres no point in google not letting the developers do it. its shame for the owner of a 30k cell phone running the so called great android and not having a fecility that a cheap 3k phone has.
wakeup guys
if not u,who?
if not now when?
What about something like pbxes.org or something like that? The short answer to your original question is "Not right now" for the reasons mentioned by a previous poster. ICS seems to have the appropriate hooks built in, but that isn't the same as having the app.
I can't believe there isn't a SIP provider you could get set up with and manage voicemail over IP. But you would know better than me what you can reach or not. Just thinking there must be some other way to skin that cat.
It would be nice to have an offline standalone answering machine that plays greeting and records voice messages in the SD or phone's memory.
That will save me $7/month, so I am not expecting it for free.
Hi guys, I was thinking the same thing, then I found this thread.
My need is to have an app that answers an incoming call after 3-4 ringing, then it should play a short record and after that start recording the call.
For example when I'm doing shower and friends come my home, they call me, so it will be useful to have an app that auto-answer and say "I'm on shower, take keys under the tree and enter"...:laugh:
I read previous posts, so I will try the 2 apps. Is there something new in the air? ICS is out since June...
I would spend 5 euros or something more for an app like this...
will we ever see that app ?
I hope so
It may be #1 wanted app in android
Anyway don't try to download "Auto call answer" it seems to be a malware

I'm looking for an application that answering machine for my Galaxy Note, but I can not find it.

i really love this function and miss this on my galaxy note T_T

Yes that would be great i used to have this on my Simbian phones voice mails are recorded straight to your device
someone attempted this on windows mobile but not Android yet (perhaps to many restrictions )
I was also looking for this type of application recently. Used to love this on my symbian but was shocked when i realised this had not been done fro droid as yet.
Is there a reason why it seems "impossible" on Android? Many of us have to PAY for voicemail and PAY with our minutes for retrieving voicemail!
And to those who would replay that this is a legal/privacy issue (like I've read elsewhere), I say, why should I trust my voicemail to my phone company or, God forbid, to Google?
Ridiculous omission
I want the same thing for my Note2, and for my S2 before that. It is a complete joke that Android does not have it built in. It is one area where Symbian is superior to Android. At the moment my only options are to have my provider turn off voicemail and refuse all messages, or to have them pile up which is incredibly inconvenient - if I have a meeting with somebody and they leave me a message there is no way I can go through a dozen messages to get to the latest one (especially without pen and paper to hand). Not to mention my provider does not even give me the phone number of the person that left the voicemail.
I've been waiting years for a simple voicemail app. It's pathetic one hasn't appeared. Even my Sony Z5 had it over a decade ago.

Count me in, I tried a couple of apps... They don't work quite as you expect though
+1 for answering machine app.
Sadly, I don't think it's an option on regular Androids due to either hardware or programming constraints. Doubt it's due to lack of user interest.
Hmmmm, maybe it's conspiracy by telco provides so they can rake in more $$$$.? (reaches for tin foil hat)
Again, for the benefit of the head scratchers out there ... Voicemail is NOT a free god given right to all phone users in the world. It costs money with some service providers. Hence the desire for "in phone" answering machine application.
hullo mail is a voice mail app that I use. It works in Ireland, the UK and America I think.

See if your provider offers visual voicemail...if not, check out "you mail" out some of the other visual voicemail apps on Google play.
That's about the closest I can think of...not only can you just hit play on your device without calling, but you also get a text transcript of each message as it comes through.

OK, I have done a little thread cleaning....I would rather not close this thread, so let's try a reset.
I think everybody knows that not every application is available in all locations...well now you do
So let's not get upset when somebody suggests something that you can't use. I just checked the Italian version of the play store and there are numerous Voicemail and Answering Machine apps for download. Personally if it isn't inverted (black background, white text) I don't want it.
So if i may recap.
The search is for an App on the phone(or tablet) that will answer for you and then play a message after that it will record what is been said on the other side of
the line.
So no redirecting calls to another number that records it so I/we don't also have to call that number to hear the messages.
I have also tried several from the "Google Play" market/store but i cannot find one that works correctly (i.e. clear sounds is a must for me personally, which all of them lack. If i want it on speaker to record i can just use my 1980 tape recorder next to it )
Oh just to clarify this is NOT about voice-mail!
An answering machine was used with landlines for when you'd be away.
Check this out, wiki about Answering machines.
And to clarify some more here is a wiki about voice-mail
Here are some of the suggestions (sorry if i miscredited anyone please PM me so i can fix it )
Hullomail (kingvortex)
Google Voice (marty331)
Visual voicemail - Check if your provider has an app (ryanshew)
Youmail (ryanshew)
I have looked at all suggestions above, but that's all voice-mail as far as i can see. (Checked websites and info if not clear enough, didn't actually try it out).
So if I'm wrong please let me know and i will research it further.
Hope this clears up some misunderstandings I have come to see in my 4 year hunt for a descent "Answering Machine app".
(Also looked for it when I had Windows Mobile but that was not possible on the phone i had then. Hardware related and such.
I'm developing an App that do this and it's called "LVoicemail": http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/app-lvoicemail-t3485750/page1

[req} Call Screener / Answering Machine

Hi All,
So this idea is from a Sanyo flip phone I had way back in the day on Sprint. Granted, it's not the most useful thing in the world, but it would be nice for times when you want to know why someone is calling before you answer the phone.
There was an option where after 4 rings the phone would answer play a locally stored greeting, then record a message locally. Now, the helpful part to me was the fact that (unless I hit a button to mute it) it would play the outgoing and incoming messages where I could hear them. Being this was several years ago, it couldn't play it over Bluetooth, which with better technology on both the device and headset ends, that would be possible. (My Motorola Elite Flip, for example)
But I'd like to see it go a step further, and make this a full featured answering / auto response system.
Say you're driving, and someone calls you, you hear the message they're leaving via your hands-free (either in car or headset) and decide you need to take the call. Instead of pressing a button, just say "Answer it". Or say "Ignore it" and the answering system would mute, the phone audio would return to whatever you had on previously, be it music or sat nav.
Similarly, if someone sends you a text, you could have it read to you on TTS, then the app would ask "Would you like to reply?" You could say "No" and the app would send a canned message ("I'm driving. I'll get back to you soon." or something similar), or say "Yes" then dictate your message by speech recognition.
With this, an auto filter would also be handy. Numbers not in your phone book, or numbers you set as black list, are automatically sent to the screener, while other contacts are not.
I think greetings should also get some options as well, like the option to have different greetings for different callers, or different caller groups, and the option to either record your greeting, or write one to be played to callers by TTS.
I've seen apps that do bits and pieces of this idea, but nothing that consolidates them, and the apps I've tried don't work very well, and they don't have the right feel. This app should be something that would feel like it was included stock on Android. Clean, simple, and intuitive.
Anyone interested in a project?
Apologies for any typos. I can't find my reading glasses.

Nokia's are good devices, but Samsung is better. Wish I could get my hands on one app that can do what I'm looking for.
I'm looking for an app which will let me:
Say someone phones me. It rings a couple times then they have to say their name. I will then hear their message of their name and can choose to ignore it or answer it accordingly.
Is this what this app is?

I think with android limitations ...u cant play the greeting to the Caller. So i guess the app would be for rooted Phones only.
..Even with a rooted phones.. An app wont do the purpose. becoz u need to to do some framework changes.
I think u are going to need a MOD which can be flashed from recovery.
I am ready to donate for this app or Mod. or do it my self if someone guides me with some Links ..+1
