Not sure if anybody else has seen this app, it lets you change your caller id when calling somebody else
http://store.androidguys.com/product.asp?id=29829
I can't even find it on the Bluff My Call website and its not in the market as far as I can tell. Its free, says its supported by ads, when you make a call it gives you a 10 second add to listen too. It says it can change your voice and record your call but when I tried it said the servers didn't support those features. Also, you can only make a 2 minute call with it.

Did you read his post? He knows where to download it at.
Sounds like hes nervous about it being some app that looks cool but steals information from our phones.

If you goto http://bluffmycall.com/ you cant find the app for android. You will find that it mentions it for the iPhone and Blackberrys. http://bluffmycall.com/ also mentions having to pay for the app while http://store.androidguys.com/product.asp?id=29829 has an app by bluffmycall and its free. Do you see what the OP is getting at now? Hes worried the app do harm to his android...

Yeah, pretty much sums it up, has anybody used it before, seems kind of strange but could be a very good app?
i think its the same as the 123 Spoof app available on the market
So has anyone else tried it?
i reccomend SpoofApp ive had so much fun with it.
it works -.- all i can say lol
I've been accused lately of having screwed up the person who I was immitatings service, being told that they can't go online with their tilt, and that they're missing calls. Can anyone verify that there is absolutely no possible way that this could happen?
bluff my call
ive tried it works great, havent received any calls or text from marketers...so far so good!!
do anyone know if bluffmycall show up on ur account as a hidden fee or what..is it a free program cuz its on the market if anyone looking for it here is the apk
I've been using this app for months! no problems guys! have some fun with friends and call someone when they dont pick up my calls. Doesn't do any harm trust me! Its free for 2 min. but you can't use any features unless you buy minutes!
Cant get it to work in Singapore... The country code is 65 so I tried +65 and +0065 and nothing works. Getting error saying invalid phone number...
It just hangs at the setup screen forever for me.
I know I signed up for vvm..but I don't see it in my list of apps...is it in the market or something?
This comes from the deepest thing ever rooted my ...HTC Evo 4G!

Yes, it's been working fine for me on every custom rom so far.
A. Make sure your SIM Card is in the device when you d/l the application.
B. Call T-Mobile and have them manually add Visual Voicemail to your account. If it is already added to the account, have them refresh its activation.
Let me know how this works out for you.

I just used YouMail from the market for VVM. Much better, imo.
Just curious as to why you guys would use T-Mobile VVM or other third party VVM software when there is Google Voice? Different features?

I've never made a comparison. I use it simply because it was preloaded on my first smartphone and it's never given me the problems some people seem to complain about, so I've never felt compelled to switch. I may migrate to Google Voice in the near future just to try it out, since I've migrated pretty much my entire life to Google anyway. Might as well throw them my voicemail, too.
Google = The Borg
First off, Let me say this. In Ohio (where I live), and most other states, it is legal to record your phone calls as long as one of the individuals involved are aware the recording is taking place (no phone tapping). Some other states it is illegal period, thus leaving it in the operators hands to do the research. This research has been done, and for me, this is legal. Please dont turn this into a right or wrong post. Too many of those exist already.
Legal bullcrap aside, I need to be able to record my phone calls from my droid bionic. I am already rooted, and willing to spend some money on this. I know there are many other that are as well.
I've tried all the popular recorders in the market, and they all have issues on most of the droids, including the bionic. It appears that the software disables this feature, and I need it unlocked in my phone. If someone were to be able to bypass this restriction, I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one sending donations.
If someone would be so kind as to look into programming the bionic to activate this feature, I would be forever greatful. I had the feature on my old Samsung Saga, and it helped out so much.
I am also interested in this. I assume it shouldn't be too hard...just like the 12 and 13 channels on 802.11. Unless maybe Motorola disables it at the firmware level.
I've been reading and it seems like recording my voice is not a problem, but recording the caller is an issue. (App wise not legally, stay focused) I've not heard definitively if the issue is hardware or not. At the risk of distracting the posse in the quest for an unlocked bootloader, does anyone firmly know one way or the other. (I've read the ROM is blocking it, and the hardware is not capable.)
For what it's worth, if someone is willing to delve into it I would put in on it.
As Google voice as my primary number when I get a call I can press 4 to record. A voice says voice recording or something like that and when I hang up I have an email with the recording. A work around if you need to record something.

Yeah, Google voice is nice, but sucks for recording. I make most phone calls, I dont receive them too often. Plus, you have a lady that loudly says "this call will be recorded" after you press the number 4 into their ear.
If it's the rom, I would like to know how to change it. Many motorola owners especially, would be very appreciative of such a modification. I like it when my call was recorded and i could choose whether to save or not with allcallrecord. Usually not, but it was nice when i could if i talked about something important.
Google Voice is not a good alternative, It kind of works, but I would like the whole thing to work.
I know that MIUI does this natively.

Actually MIUI isn't available for the Bionic, and I know the Droid X version of MIUI says it is recording but the file is corrupt and too small to have actually done any recording.
There does need to be a program that handles call recording discreetly, while there is a distasteful side of this, there are plenty of legitimate reasons. I'm a journalist for instance and would love to start doing phone interviews with my cell instead of going to the office and getting setup with special gear. Our celebrity interviews are always taped (with permission). Also investigative reporting... which is why I said discreetly.
There are plenty of businesses that would pay decent money for a good feature like this. If someone is doing this project, the best way IMO would be to have an option to record call, and record in the room, and have it save to phone and option to save to drop box (real time) so for instance...
If me as a journalist decides to record a Chicago Police officer breaking the law it would go right to drop box. They have made it a felony to do this, but as a member of the media I'm entitled constitutionally speaking to record a public servant and to report on it. Normally what would happen is they would take my phone, beat the **** out of me, arrest me, and then either plant drugs or a gun on me.
I know that sounds odd, but we have issues in Chicago.
we dont have a custom kernel yet so its not possible. once we get a new custom kernel we should be able to have that integrated
That will be awesome. Keep me posted f something comes up. I'll keep my eye out as well.
new custom kernel
I am also aggravated that I can't get an app which will record calls on my bionic. I live in a one-party state, so it is legal for me to record my coversations....discreetly or otherwise. Like the others, I find myself in a situation where I really need this functionality. Does anyone have an ETA on when this will be made available? Will I need to buy a new phone because it will require a hardware fix? Or can it be fixed with an OS update?
I realize the actual "fix" is probably not available yet....but it seems like some of you might be on the down-low with why it doesnt' work and what it will take to fix it.

I believe its a software fix/modification. Something would have to be put in place to actually make you not be able to record. Hopefully one of the roms will allow this to happen.

I could really use this. My lawyer is telling me I need this for the situation I'm in. My evo 4g from sprint was able to do it with the stock app just fine. Wish this phone was the same way

If this is right then it won't happen until the bootloader is unlocked which according to some posts that I've read won't be for a year plus.

Yay!! Anyone know if the Samsung Charge/Stratosphere or any of the other 4G phones record calls? If they do, I may be switching. For all that I do with my bionic, recording phone calls reigns precidence over dual core and webtop, not to mention a glitchy phone in general.
Turns out, the Stratosphere works with Total Recall. I'll try the Samsung Droid Charge and see. I may end up getting it instead.
I wish someone would update this Really need call recording to work on my phone...

Yes, agreed!
You need a custom kernel that supports this feature, which motorolas do not. So until the bootloader gets unlocked or somebody figures a way around that it is more than likely not going to happen.
Can anyone tell me of an app whereby when I call someone and they're on the phone, my phone tells me. I know Samsung's Touchwiz does this. HTC doesn't do it with Sense though and I'm running CM which doesn't do it either.
Bump?

AFAIK, Android does not have that feature. Samsung and Sony add that by themselves
It actually sucks to think that something so basic is patent encumbered. I'm guessing that's why I'm also yet to find an app to provide this missing functionality.

In terms of non-Android I know Nokia does and I was surprised to be told that Apple doesn't. Am really quite gutted that this can't be done with a simple app.
It works on my Inc s. I've enabled call wait from my service provider, so when I'm on a call and someone else calls, I get a series of beeps with the other caller number or contact data flashed on my phone. I just have to accept, reject or ignore the second call and the first caller gets into hold... its all available on your phones too, you only need to enable it in call settings and of course, with your service provider too

That's the wrong way round. I have mine enabled for people calling me. But what I'm referring to with this thread is a notification to say that when I call someone else, I'm alerted to the fact that they're already on a call.
@Sabret00the
Wouldn't that be a function that the person you're calling, needs to enable with his service provider? I usually get a recorded message saying that the person you are calling is on another call... wait for him to respond, or hang up & dial later. The phone displays number busy... isn't that so? Or then I'm confused....

Nope. It's a standard feature for Samsung's, Sony's and Nokia. If I ring from my IncS and someone is on the phone, it just rings normally. If I ring from a Samsung it states on screen that "the person you're dialling is on a call".

there are tons of threads and requests for this feature,like sms delivery report.Its a manufacture dependent feature.As far as i know it is called "gsm supplimentary service" n i guess on this situation when the user is busy on a call the gsm server sends a code to the phone n the phone then shows a toast notification.All nokia ,samsung and sony ericsson phone have that feature and htc , motorola and iphone doesnt have that I dont know it can be done by an app. may be .. by somethin in the "telephony.app" ... who knows since there is no developer interest in this and

Until Marshmallow is out I find it is nice to be able to use AT&T Visual Voicemail. I installed the APK I took from my old G4 and it works beautifully. Give it a try if you have AT&T
After I called my voicemail it took a few minutes (maybe 5) before it activated but it worked
Great job Josh!

This one is the one that comes standard on AT&T phones and I like the interface better. I think it works better overall unless the changed the one in the store since I tried it last. Compare the two and see which one you prefer. Much better UI IMO, the one in the play store looks terrible.
It looks different for sure. Some of the text is hard to read.
I'll try it out but the playstore version has been great.

This app is for U-verse or Unified Messaging, not straight up AT&T Wireless. There's another app called "AT&T Messages" that combines Text, VM and calls and are viewable as a thread by contact.
