[Q] SGH-i337M - Using mspy app - call recordings dont work (have kitkat 4.4.2 & Root) - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[Q] SGH-i337M - Using mspy app - call recordings dont work (have kitkat 4.4.2 & Root)
Hi All,
Im using the app in the Galaxy S4 SGH-i337m to record calls, but I can hear only the person who receives the call (I mean the person with the mspy app installed in the device).
Is there any way to change the configuration (Probably installing a ROM or patch) to make the recording calls through mspy.com available?
This device is same as Canadian and Mexico Models. I have used this app in other phones and works perfectly all call recordings are working 100% fine.
This might be a dumb question but I dont know how to figure this out, been reading a lot and trying to find out, like I mention in subject, this phone has kitkat 4.4.2 and is rooted, all other features of Mspy works fine but the call recording is not, and is pretty much the most important feature of the application.
Please help me to resolve this issue!!

mspy.com support response!! - They dont help at all!!

Currently there are 2 ways of the conversation to be recorded: directly from the phone line and through the microphone of the device. In first case – all parties of the conversation will be recorded in a high-quality.
In second case – the recording is executed through the microphone which is usually situated in the bottom part of the phone and it can clearly record only the voice of the target device’s owner, but the other party may not be such clear. It means that the microphone “hears” only the echoes of sounds from the phone’s speaker, which is situated in the top part of the phone. It leads to the low-quality or one-sided recordings.
The possibility to record through the phone line is determined by the manufacturer and their policy. It means that in many countries (especially in EU) it is forbidden by the law to secretly perform a recording of the phone conversation. Therefore, many manufacturers are restricting this option from the firmware of the phone. It means that some of manufacturers still keep this option for phones, which will be used in countries without such law restrictions, and the others block this feature in firmware “just in case”.
In some cases there is a possibility to replace the official firmware of the phone on other official one and activate the option to record phone conversations (the localization of the phone may be kept). Moreover, it’s possible to find the alternative (unofficial) firmware with activated option of recording designed by freelancers. It is possible to install some special patches for some of phone models which will enable the option of conversation recording.
After thorough researches it was concluded that your particular target device will not have the possibility to record calls and this problem may not be resolved from our side due to those hardware issues (which were previously stated). You can make a research on your own and find the appropriate firmware for your target device; it may resolve your problem. However, we cannot take the responsibility for those researches and provide any guarantees.
Please accept our apologies.

(delete two spaces between d p r )
How ever , in Offcial displays and websites show us "with a 1.4GHz quad-core processor at its heart, missing only the ability to make calls."
though it is Android 4.1, they cancel the function of making call. For fear that galaxy camera would impact the selling of S III.
>>>>>>>>>Network 4G、3G , HSPA+ 21Mbps (Not include Gsm communication)
Is it the problem of hardware ? Seach the words "call" in the web ,many replies show that they are confused the cancel of call function.
Don't worry, I or someone else in these forums will hack its core and make sure that we can make calls with it.
The galaxy camera CANNOT make calls.......It's just a camera with android on it.........you can put a 3G or 4G enabled sim on it to use its data(like the iPad),and NOT make calls......If you are interested in buying a phone with a good camera....wait for the Nokia Lumia phones with Pureview
Also S-ON/S-OFF are terms only for HTC devices......it's sort of their way to prevent access to the NAND

if anything would you not be able to use skype with the data card in there to make phone calls? Or perhaps you can use Google Voice?

The reason that works is because it shares a modem with a device that can make phone calls. I'm not saying this camera doesn't. I'm saying don't go flashing that modem.
I have a galaxy camera inbound next week. Expect some threads in original development and development from me. I will be releasing Heimdall One-Click and CASUAL for this device shortly after I get ahold of it. I will also film some XDATVs on it. Then I will send it to Josh Groce at MobileTechVideos.com to get a JTAH flash on it.
I'm very excited to see what this thing can do
It can be done on a very simple way using CM10 : by enabling in build.prop the phone functions and using a Bluetooth headset. However, I think CM10 with Galaxy Camera is a no go, as all the main features are in TouchWiz on this device.
The harder method would be to modify the build.prop to let you make phone calls and then install the dialer&contacts apps .apk from S3 or Note 2. Here will be some compatibility issues, but they could be solved. The only thing you will need is a Bluetooth headset, which will run as speaker and mic.
Samsung can't remove the phone features in Android, just they can disable these functions, which we will enable again .
L.E.: The modem should not be a problem, because this device can receive 3G data for Internet via microSIM, correct?
just gonna state the obvious
Could you just use Skype/Google voice (us)
Would this not work? (Maybe need to grab apks as not supported) but wouldn't that work?

Yes, that will work. It's running Android and that's the only real requirement for those apps. It will probly also support Google+ Hangouts. Native phone calls are a different story though.

Its because theres not a gsm radio to make a calls right
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Surely you could make Voip calls on it. The device has a speaker, a microphone and data connectivity via Wifi or 3g/4g. You might look silly making calls on a camera but if you paired that with a Bluetooth adapter, then you'd be in business.

I wouldn't care about looking silly, but it would be a perfect device for holidays (or small get-outs and concerts/events). You run around making pictures all day, making very occasional phonecalls and whatsapping/skyping a bit in between .. if this device had call-capability I could leave my $600 smartphone at home and worry about only one expensive device in my pocket.
Besides, I'd laugh my ass off at people looking at me making a phonecall with this haha
The "what the ?!" faces will be priceless
The mic placement is no good for making traditional phone calls, the call quality will be terrible I think. I was really hoping this thing could make calls, I basically only use apps on my nexus 7 now and I only need a phone to take photos and make calls, this could have been it.

[Q] HELP - Nexus 4 call log issue with international calling card

So bought a Nexus 4. And I am so upset with one major issue with this phone: it's inability to properly record calling card numbers. I dial internationally a lot, and my phone company provided me with an access number. So all my outbound calls look something like this: 1 800 xxx xxxx , 011 xx xxx xxx xxxxx #
Now, if I dial ten different numbers (already stored in my contacts), the call log or history shows only the access number (the 1 800 number) ten times!!! I have tried this on a Samsung Galaxy S3, on a Samsung Galaxy Blaze, and they all have this problem. I also have an HTC One S, and some old HTC MyTouch and they DO NOT have this problem! An older LG Optimus T HAS this issue. What the heck?!?!
I have tried multiple dialers, and none can handle this properly. I have researched forums as much as I could, and it seems that this is a somewhat common issue with Google Voice calls... I have reached to Google and this is what they said:
"I understand you are having an issue using a calling card for international calls and not having them present in your call log. As of right now there is no current workaround for that and I apologize for the inconvenience. We frequently share customer feedback with our development team and will be sure to pass along your input."
and when I asked if this will ever be fixed:
"It is a known issue and there a solution to the problem is currently being worked on. Unfortunately I do not know when a solution will be available so I can't advise you whether it would be a good idea to return the device or not. If I can assist you further please let me know. Once again sorry for the inconvenience."
I fail to understand how this MAJOR FLAW can exist in the phone that promises to put "the world’s information at my fingertips", and yet, it cannot perform something as basic as remembering the very international calls it made...
Is there something I can do? Install? Am I stuck with HTC? Should I thus take a leap of faith and keep the Nexus 4 hoping for a fix to this problem?

[GSM User] Call audio quality poor on other person's side

Hi guys,
First of all, I'm a GSM user running the latest OTA stock ROM and Baseband.
So I've been making more calls lately, and I keep getting complaints from people saying my voice is unclear and breaking up on them. I decided to do some experimenting, and have come to the conclusion that it is not my SIM, phone's mic, ROM, or the other person's problem.
I've noticed, when calling from my Razr M to another phone (let's call it Phone2), if I set Phone2 to mute, then my voice is heard perfectly fine on Phone2. If it's not muted, then Phone2 can barely hear what I am saying from my Razr M. The whole time, anything the person says into Phone2 is heard crystal-clear on my Razr M
I know it's not my SIM card is because I just went to the AT&T store today and replaced it
I know it's not the mic is because if I use GrooVe IP to place the call via VoIP, everything is heard fine on both ends
I know it's not the other person is because I've had at least 4 different people tell me they can barely hear me on their phones, and I've tested it myself by calling the other phones in my AT&T family plan, and my landline, and the issue still occurs.
I found that changing
Code:
persist.audio.mic=digital
to "analog" instead, helps a little because it makes the voice louder, but it doesn't help with the audio breaking up.
Reverting back to the older baseband (the one that is included in Matt's Utility 1.20) doesn't make a difference.
Does anyone else have similar experiences? Ideas for me to try? I'm especially curious to hear from other GSM users.

You gave us very little information to go on. Which makes it rather hard to even guess at what is going on.
At a minimum, pertinent details would include: what app are you using for the video call, what your signal strength was, how often does it fail e.g. always, infrequently, in weak signal conditions, when calling iphones, et cetera. Do a speed test to see how much capacity your data link has.
Backup your system and revert to the original 900T firmware. Does that resolve the issue? What version of 900F firmware do you have? Did you have any errors when flashing the foreign firmware to your 900T?

Thank you for responding.
I'm using the 3g video call (native)
The video call always fails (it says "the call was canceled).
The original G900T firmware does not support video call as far as i know. (T-mobile blocked video calls)
My operator does support video calls (i've checked it in another device)
I'm using phoenix ROM ver. 3,
But when i installed the ROM, I couldnt install the modem, so i think that my modem is still the original one.
When i tried to install the modem, odin said "fail(auth)" on the file "aboot".
Maybe the modem cause this problem?
And why can't i install the new modem?
The ROM works great except this issue.
Thanks again.
A cursory search shows that the built in video call feature is proprietary, fails for many people and isn't much used - at least not compared to the myriad and more popular video call apps e.g. Hangouts, Skye, et al.
The Samsung video call app apparently only works if you are calling another Samsung phone that has the feature as well and you didn't tell us if that is the case for you. You also need a 3G signal with sufficient speed. You didn't make a speed test or tell us your network settings.. so we don't know if that is an issue or not. You say that your carrier supports this feature, but didn't tell who your carrier is. And you apparently had issues, Odin errors when flashing your custom ROM which may also affect this. And there is no mention in the support thread for your custom ROM whether this feature is supported or of people reporting that it works for that ROM.
That is just a start, it would be easy to add another half dozen potential obstacles to our list as well. The point is not to give you a hard time, but to reiterate that you haven't provided nearly enough information to begin to troubleshoot this. There are many reasons why it could fail. A search would show you that a lot of people have problems with the Samsung app. Which probably explains why most people use Hangouts or Skype which are more reliable video call apps.
If you prefer the Samsung app for some reason, all I can suggest is that you check the potential issues that I cited. And to provide a lot more details, so that someone reading this thread has something to work with if they endeavor to help you.
Hope that helps.

[Q] Video call possibility in android

Hi guys.
I am searching for many days about this, but still no proper information.
(Old sony ercisson and nokia mobile had video calling feature.)
Why there is no default video call app in android?
(Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...res_in_Android )
Why there is no App in market or any module for Xposed framework to enable video calls in droids.
Where some manufacturers have video called function enabled and Korean mobiles (LG, Samsung) has video call function but that doesn’t seem to work in Europe, Asia or America, it works only in korea.
Now I have few queries.
1--> is it possible to make video call from any android via any kind of customization with rooting, installing apps or with xposed framework etc.
2 -- regardless of unable to make video call, can droids receive video calls?
3-- is it possible to make video calls with Korean android mobiles, outside Korea? Or we can say, is it possible to fix this error, “when global roaming, video call not supported”. Or it is possible to enable video call when roaming.
Fronts cams are 50% useless without native video calls in androids, why nobody is trying to add video call feature in android?
i already post it in other section, but got no reply in 2 days, probably that was wrong section
Android as an OS has had video calling for years but the thing is that it has to be supported by the carrier for that device. And up until recently almost no one in the states allowed it. Even with those that do have it. They seldom use it as it is just a gimmic and causes more issues then it is worth.
well i have asked my operator and they say that i can do video calls if my phone support. when i put my sim in my retired e72 i can do video calls over network operators line but cant do video call on my z1c! thats a shame.. i hope some one will write a mod or script for that it work..
cheers.

I missed that it was a Korea device. I hate to say it but your out of luck. They are not made to work fully outside of Korea. Their whole system is set up differently as far as data goes.
As for why people are not looking into this. Well that's simple. It's a gimmic. We spend thousands of dollars with wearable, BT, and other hands free devices just to have to hold the device in front of you makes it very impractical.
