Painfully slow caller app - YU Yureka Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After the update to CM12S, the caller app is extremely slow.
I updated my OPO but the issue wasn't there at all. In YU, would tap on the name I want to call, and it literally takes more than one second to start the call !! Any idea what might be the workaround, I tried with Truecaller app as well, same slowness, seems like the slowness is with Contacts app to begin with ...

In-call recording app - any?

I would like to record calls automatically (both my voice and the caller's one).
Is there some app that can do this?
Thank you all for answering
sorry for being an Android noob, but too many years into WM...
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-opensystem-callrecord-jjDw.aspx
Thank you for your fast reply
I took the time to read the comments of the users, and they were far from enthusiastic....
Have you tried the app yourself?
How did it worked for you?
No call recording apps work, they only ever record your side of the convo unless on speaker phone. It's something to do with an android limitation. Not sure why there's not been one for rooted devices though, I'd pay for that.

Do you not read the comments ?.... not working ...
I'm looking for this too. I had even bought Ultimate Voice Recorder based on good experience of it on WinMo, but it wasn't until after more than a week of it running in the background, generating loads of .3gp files did I notice that they were all 0 bytes long.
Kind of ridiculous that this works on 1.5/1.6, but not on 2.x.
using totalrecall here, works beautifully!
@DomFel, are you using a Desire? great news if total recall works on it...
Deleted post
total recall works on desire?
Felt it was necessary to bump this one. I have tested Total recall but it clearly states that it will not record for +2.0 devices.
I'm getting some very unpleasant calls from even more unpleasant people, and desperately need to record calls. Got a great recorder on Winmo (Audio touch note). Is it really so that Winmo haves something that Android even cant support?? I would be surprised if this was so!
Please let me know if you have a working app.
so am i.
im looking for in-call recorder app.. keep me posted..
Hey guys
I am using vRecorder on my desire and it works. There are some annoying features though:
First time you open the app, it will ask you to donate. Just press 0$ and afterwards press the back-button.
The following times when you open the app, it will show you a "commercial" asking you if you want to check out other apps from the developer.
It records all calls (in- and out-going), so there is no record button. It just always records all calls (it is possible to exclude numbers though).
Hope it helps, and let me know if you guys find a better app
Just tried vRecorder and it records my voice but not the other's. Other than that it's great
at mine there was a pre installed in call recorder...but its only called in-call recorder...nothing else..its build by HTC
Just tried vRecorder when I set up a new voicemail greeting. It recorded both sides and it was really good, but then it went rubbish. I worked out why-it's only recording from the microphone and first part when it was good was when I had it on speakerphone. It went really quiet after that, and was only audible as I was in a quiet room and my volume is high. Uninstalled...
Read this http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2117
Dont forget to star the issue.
So is there any info if this issue will be fixed in Froyo? Or if an app for a rooted Desire have turned up?
Total Recall dont work on my desire 2.2...

[News] Skype now has video...but not SGS? (link to something may work pg2)

I'm updating Skype now on the market. Says has video now. But says only for selected handsets and SGS is not one of them.
ye, sucks typically skype
This is baffling. If the Nexus S can support it without a front-facing camera, why not the SGS?!
Oh crapas. Its bad enough that they decided not to support one of (if not the most) popular android phone running 2.3 now. What's worse is...
a. DOES NOT SAVE PASSWORD. UGH.
b. I personally think the UI is worse. At least the "Sign-Out" is on the menu bar instead of buried in the "status" menu. But because it does not save password, this really sucks. Would it kill them to put a big red "Turn Off" button somewhere?
c. Seemed less stable, but that might be my phone.
d. I thought that the new "SMS" functionality would mean that Skype is now an SMS client, which would combine messaging functions into one program. Add a dialler into it, and it could be kick-ass. But this is NOT SMS. This is a text message sent over Skype's network to an SMS gateway to a phone. It costs much more than my SMSs through my carrier, which are true SMS.
I only use Skype on my phone when I'm travelling and need to call international. If this program was better, I would not mind leaving it on all the time. Now, google talk is starting to look better vis-a-vis Skype. If only I could call phones from Google Talk, like I can on my computer...

Skype sucks anyways. Do you really think it will become better with MS?
What we really need is open standard video conferencing protocols.

Its one of those things in which the network is the value. Skype is used for international business and communication. It works better than Google Talk (which also is not open I believe) for talk between China and USA. It works for making cheap international computer to phone calls.
But yes...the company does suck. They can't provide chat customer service...and they're a communications company. Also interface is only so-so.
I NEED Skype on my phone...if no Android version I would get an iPhone. Only other way to call USA from China (without paying huge rates) is to activate VPN and use Google Talk. And that option only started 2 months ago. And I can only call a computer, not a phone with Google.
Fring and Nimbus, IMO, are no better than Skype and don't have desktop clients.

it's ironic, cause fring used to be like that, it did support video between mobile (syambian i guess for instance) and pc skype seamlessly. but because of skype they had to remove this option.

Ok, I guess i should read more closely... I uninstalled first, then reinstalled your patched version. I get a video call option now, but the video preview on my side is really messed up.... running Darky's 10.1 (JVH base)
I see 4 pictures of my self from the front facing camera, all on the horizontal view screen... each picture is distorted in shape and has white lines running horizontally through it..

How exactly is it better for talk between China and USA? It's just like any video call software out there. Windows live messenger/yahoo/google/apple/logitech all work, to name a few.
And for phone calls, it's about the most expensive VoIP solution out there.
I use voip.ms, which is cheaper and works with open protocols. With my ATA I can call with a real phone, with my computer turned off. Works on android too.

[Q] Full size contact photo in Touchwiz

Hello,
I just got an S4, previously had HTC One X. Now, there is a small issue which is bothering me and I couldn't find any posts about it. When you open up a contact in Touchwiz, it shows a tiny square photo of the person. In Sense, it shows a widescreen photo, which can be expanded into full size once clicked on (please see attached image).
Is there anyway I can get Touchwiz to do the same? Any mods, apps, etc?
Any help would be really appreciated.
You can't do that in the stock contacts app, but you can find an alternate contacts/dialer app in the store. Can't say much more though.

I have been using Rocketdialer from the play store for years now,
it has full screen incoming and outgoing caller id built in with all
kinds of themes and layouts.
Much better than any stock dialer. It even has a call blocker built in too.
It's an all in one contacts/dialer/caller id/call blocker.
It's really excellent
I got it from the playstore.
Give it a try,

Actually one problem is in Google contacts. The dialer app is able to display big photos when you make a call or you have one incoming. When this photos are saved in Google Contacts, are down scaled. So, when you reset the phone or get a new one, the photos are small.
Do you know caller picture's size in S4? Is it 1080*1080 or 720*720?

There's a workaround for this.
Create the contact of the person in 'Phone' and mark the contact of the phone as default (Open contact->menu->mark as default). The hassle though is you re-create it for every contact you have.
I only do this though for frequent callers, and for callers that I have a high resolution pic.

Hangouts Dialer Call No Audio

I'm having a unique situation where everything is working with the Hangouts Dialer app except no one can hear me. I can hear the person on the other end, but its like I'm on mute. The audio is not choppy, just not transmitting at all. I have tried uninstalling the Dialer app, disabling Hangouts and clearing the cache for both. I receive a notification for incoming calls. Does anyone know a fix?
ROM - Ressurection Remix 7.1.1 RR-N-v5.8.20170303-clark Weekly
Dialer - 01.100944346
Hangouts - 17.0.148298972
Wild guess here, but check the app permissions. Make sure it has microphone access.

I have the same issue, but can get around it immediately by connecting by Bluetooth headset and using that for the call.
********* mic
I'm same like OP, but the difference is that it appears on ANY (even stock) ROM I've tried so far.
However, some roms allow to bypass this issue, by simply turning the speaker mode on.
Sadly, the Resurrection 7.1.1 doesn't (for me at leasts).
Tried everything that I knew, which was:
-Changes in build.prop for the echo cancellation/noise reduction
-Cleaning the mic hole
-Changes in audio_platform_info.xml file (which contains the input/output devices list)
-Setting permissions for dialer/audio effects app
-Change to a different dialer app
-Disable audio effects app
-Various different stuff like service menu settings (*#*# etc)
-Reflash everything using CORRECT device images (5.1.1, 6.0, 6.0.1)
-Use different kernels
-Other things I forgot due to "fix attempts" ammount
I'm wondering if I shouldn't start my own thread to get visible, so
HELP PLEASE
#Edit - I didn't said, that the mic is WORKING - checked it using call recorder app and service test menu (not on the speakermode ofc).
Things I say are CLEAR TO HEAR on the playback, just the call receiver cannot hear me. Where is the devil hidden?
~~Regards

Yes. I did check the permissions. All for Hangouts are checked, there are non for Dialer. One thing I did notice is that when it is not working on a ROM for me Dialer is not having the popup after the first instance after installation. I've gone to a Marshmallow ROM for the time and it is working.

Question Enable Auto Phone Call Recording

Hello to everyone,
I hope someone could help me, i need to record any phone call that i make/receive, the phone should record the call without messages to the caller about the phone call is recorded.
Did someone can tell me how can i do this? i have seen that one option is to root the device but if someone have other suggestion is better for me than root the device.
I have also tried this app: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...cord-phone-calls-from-the-phone-line.1441643/ but use the microphone so sometimes there are very noise.

Yes. I am in the same situation. The only things I can think of are, 1. A call recorder app. or, 2. Using a different dialer, say from a Oneplus phone. But I'm still looking into it. I have been using a call recorder app that seems to work somewhat okay but not that great.
I Hope Simeone could help US..
I have also seen that changing the phone app Is not the solution because some apps uses CSC

That's good to know because I was going to try it. The thing is, depending on what version you have, call recording is built in. So that tells me that all variants could have it built in maybe ? Not sure but I am continuing to do research when I have the time.
Yes, I think that every android phone have this functionality, the problem is that phone app use CSC to enable o not, this is what I have understand

Not really. I do have two apps installed that are recording calls pretty good ! One of them I installed from Google play called Call recorder. And the other one is one that I came across in one of the posts for the Nothing phone. I have both running at the same time and both are recording calls pretty good. However, I would rather have the inbuilt option.
I'm from Italy and have Nothing Phone for a couple of weeks now so I may be missing something.
I've tried ACR, a well thought app for call recording, but unfortunately it doesn't record bluetooth calls (earphone or car's) so as a couple of other apps. I guess it's a problem that every third party app is having, given Google policy.
So, I'm using the Google phone app call recording utility (upper right corder three dots > settings > call recording). This option has popped out the first time I put in the sim card. I suppose everyone can access this option but with Google you never know...
This makes available a button on the phone screen, a switch between call recording and not recording. Actually, it's only manageable when the call is started and it's available switching in the second screen of the app.
Overall it works pretty well, even on Bluetooth calls. The calls are accessible via the call log history and can de saved. The only drawdown is that you have to put a meaningful name to the file when saving it.
What drives me CRAZY is that it doesn't have the option to ALWAYS record the calls. Apparently, it's an available option (Google has a help page dedicated: https://support.google.com/phoneapp/answer/9803950?hl=en) but not for the Italian version. Or at least for my version
Does anyone know if and how I can make it a permanent choice? I don't want to manually switch it every time...
Any help is very appreciated
