Call Recording Libs

[r3flux]

Traditionally Moto doesn't support call recording while MIUI ROMs has always built-in call recording support though the Atrix ports don't support call recording. xploited has extracted the audio lib from the Moto Chinese ROM which does support recording >>

Please, use the libs only packages first and use a 3rd party app like AndroRec or CallRecorder

updated 2.3.4 libs http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11446902/libs.zip
updated 2.3.5 libs http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11446902/libs2.3.5.zip

thanks to xploited for the [MOD]

[NEW] 2.3.5 libs from Chinese ROM Now http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mppmm3wo92ab5gl

I think I recall the HKTW build having this feature. Is anyone adventurous enough to try porting those libs to other firmwares?

I'm not adventurous, I'm just trying to spread some knowledge around.

I actually tried getting this to work.

Porting libraries from Defy is not an option, since the libraries are device unique and cannot even be decompiled.

+ I extracted the libs from the HKTW ROM for the Atrix and tried using them on CM7.2. I was able to boot fine but the call recording still didn't work.

It might be incompatible with CM7, or there are other dependencies, or we need libs from a newer 2.3.6 rom, I am not sure.

p.s. I can create a CWM package if you are willing to try them on the Blur based roms.

If you post a CWM version for blur, I will try it on Nottachtrix 1.3.1 and share the results. Thanks!

K... Attempt #1, files taken from 2.3.4 HKTW ROM.

Step 1: Do a Nandroid backup in case you get a soft brick from flashing these.

Package 1: just the libs, use 3rd party recording app to test the recording
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11446902/libs.zip

Package 2: libs + BlurDialer.apk, this dialer supposadly has a record button during calls
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11446902/libs+dialer.zip

I am also downloading a 2.3.5 chinese rom right now, so there will probably be attempt #2 with libs from that rom.

=========================================

Attempt #2, files taken from 2.3.5 Chinese retail ROM.

This is very exciting. Coming from the Defy community which I dare say is super active and very bleeding edge, I'm thrilled to be a part of the Atrix community now. Looking forward to xploited cracking this! I use the 3rd party app 'AndroRec' and I'll try flashing attempt #2 over neutrino and let you know.

p.s. MIUI seems to have cracked this in all their supported roms without a hitch. Maybe we ought to study that and see how it goes?

Thank you for setting these up. For some reason, CWM is aborting when I attempt to flash them (Status 0). Can I just copy the APK and .lib files into the directories listed in the install script?

EDIT: I ended up being too impatient to wait so I copied the APK into the system directory, and the .SO files into the /lib/ directory and....

the 2.3.5 file (that included BlurDialer) soft-bricked me. I could not get past the Motorola non-animated splash on boot. I am recovering now, and will post when I give the first files a try.

What 3rd party app would allow me to test drive just the lib files?

 

[kidqian]

i'm using china firmware,but call recording is one-way.can anyone modify it??
i can provide the libs and phone.apk.

Sorry, I have updated the files and they should flash properly now.
Please, use the libs only packages first, and the ones with apk only as last resort.
If recording doesn't work with just the libs, it won't work with the apk either.

Updated files:
updated 2.3.4 libs http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11446902/libs.zip
updated 2.3.5 libs http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11446902/libs2.3.5.zip

You can use apps like AndroRec, Total Call Recorder or Call Recording widget to test these.

I tried the 2.3.4 one on Neutrino with no luck. You might wanna try the updated files above from 2.3.5.

Can you point me to a specific GB build of MIUI that has call recording implemented? Do they use a separate app for recording or is it built into the dialer?

p.s. Went ahead and downloaded the last MIUI GB build - MIUI.US_GB_V2.3.23.
It has the exact same audio libs as CM7.2, which don't support audio recording.
Can anyone actually confirm that this or other build of GB Miui supports audio recording?

Which version of China firmware are you using? By one way call recording you mean that only incoming calls are recorded or only outgoing calls?

I can confirm that no miui rom from atrix supports audio recording. We got the option but it doesn't record anything.

I have also tried several miui ROMs w/o any luck recording.

It's strange why it would work on the Chinese ROMs and not on others especially MIUI since that is also chinese though based heavily on CM code. On the Defy, all Moto Blur/deBlur & CM7/CM9 ROMs didn't support it, but all MIUI variants supported it.

MIUI team have pledged to open their code soon to the public and a few MIUI apps have already gone open. Maybe that ought to give us some insights?

[kreegaa]

i remember when i used to have an HTC some developer had to patch the kernel to get the call recording feature to work.. not just lib changes

 

[xploited]

OK. Can anyone point me to a specific ROM for the Atrix that has call recording?

I have just downloaded PureBlur 1.1 which is based on HKTW 2.3.4 and it the call recording on it also doesn't work. Strange.

That's the thing, MIUI for Atrix DOESN'T have call recording. Miui provides a feature for recording, but without the proper libs it will not work.

p.s. can you pull libaudio.so from your rom with working call recording?

I would like to compile a list of Android phones that either...

1) Come with native call recording functionality.
2) Support call recording with 3rd party app/hack/ROM.

Please note that phones/apps that require using speakerphones (i.e. muffled voice from the other side; cannot record while headsets are used) to record the calls do *not* count. You can test by recording with a headset, Bluetooth or wired, and see if the voices from both sides are still loud and clear.

Most, if not all, "call recorder" apps on Android Market make use of such "speakerphone" hacks.

Models that have this function built-in.
Meizu M9
Motorola Defy (Chinese mainland version ME525)
Motorola XT701
Samsung Galaxy S (South Korean version SHW-M110S, with firmware DH09 or newer)

Models that don't have this function built-in but can use a 3rd party app/hack/ROM to record calls in both ways without turning on speakerphone.
HTC Desire; requires root and custom kernel/ROM
HTC HD2; requires custom rom and patch
HTC Hero/DROID ERIS; requires root and custom kernel; with rViox, support thread
HTC Magic (a.k.a. G2); requires root and custom kernel; with rViox, support thread
HTC Sensation; requires custom kernel, ROM and 3rd party app, support thread; Thanks to ccris
HTC Wildfire; requires root and custom kernel; with rViox, support thread
Motorola Defy; requires Chinese 2.2 ROM or Hacks with 3rd Party App or CM7 with 3rd Party App
Samsung i9000 (Galaxy S); with Hacks #1 or #2
Samsung i9100 (Galaxy S II); with 3rd Party App
Sony Ericsson X10, X10 Mini Pro and X8; with Call Recorder by Schass Innab
ZTE Blade (a.k.a. Orange San Francisco); requires custom ROM

call recording works on 4.5.3-118-OLY-3 (45.2.14.ME860.ChinaRetail.en)
with stock radio of this firmware(BP_N_01.41.00R) and stock kernel of this firmware

 

[matthew5025]

File does not work on the latest CM7

 

[r3flux]

The ROM mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1615689 has working call recording. Maybe this ROM can serve as a good starting material to make a CWM-flashable ZIP with the requisite customization.

 

[chagla]

is there a custom kernel available for ATrix that support 2way call recording? i heard of "bricked" kernel for HTC sensation that supports it. there is an app by "skvalex" in market but he said only snapdragon chipset are supported. so atrix is a tegra. i guess no recording?
