Customizing voice memo function

[thomastone]

My current device is the TYTN II (Kaizer) and I use the voice memo function extensively for note taking. I have customised one of my hard buttons to take me straight to recording voice notes. This only requires a one step procedure by depressing the customized button. Is it possible to do something similar with the Blackstone (HTC Touch HD).

Yes, I have this set up with AE button + to map the volume down button to a long press starts resco recorder (you could, of course, also use the voice recorder).

So, a long press on the volume down starts up resco for me.

Works just like on my old Tytn II.

Recording two way conversations

Yes, I have this set up with AE button + to map the volume down button to a long press starts resco recorder (you could, of course, also use the voice recorder).

So, a long press on the volume down starts up resco for me.

Works just like on my old Tytn II.

Is it possible to record the other person's voice as well when using the recording function? I believe that due to hardware constraints it was not possible with the Tytn II.

Hi Cheesy Dave,

This setup presents me with the problem: I have to remove the phone from my ear (when involved in a conversation), switch the power button on (device switches off when call answered), long press on volume down button and then press record.

With the TYTN 2 I could record a reminder with a single push of an asigned button.

Any way around this?
