Record Both Sides of Call Coming Soon!

They've got a 7-day trial, so I might just have to check it out. Thanks.

I know this from experience, it works for me. I have tried it before. The only problem with resco is that there is no option to turn this feature on/off from the call menu. You have to do this from the resco program so that means you have to do it before the call or spend time fiddling around with your programs menu during the call...

this is illegal in most states
so if u record both convos, u take the chance of legal action if the other party finds out and is not happy about it

Can anyone confirm if this works? It doesn't work on my TP after installing the .cab file and the .mui file onto the /windows directory. I can't seem to find the option for recording calls in my windows phone screen.

I've also installed Resco Audio Recorder, but it doesn't work to record both sides. You may hear the other side VERY faintly, but my guess is that it's just the mic picking up the speaker output (which is why, as someone else here mentioned, if you use speakerphone you'll get a decent recording of both sides).

In all the times this has come up, people have pointed out that it's a hardware limitation on our phones (something about how the hardware interfaces directly rather than routing through the OS).

I was hopeful when I saw that HTC included in-call recorder software for another device, but after having tried messing around with it (there's a thread here and on XDA), I'm not very confident that it will work for the Touch Pro.

No offense to you, but I'm really tired of seeing these disclaimers on legality whenever someone mentions recording a call...... it's up to the person recording the call to make sure it's legal... jeez, I don't even think the software vendors that create these programs warn people this much.

I had Resco for a while and it doesnt record both sides unless on speaker, point blank. Now, about the settings, you can elect that Resco records phone calls automatically which may be inconvenient,however that option exists, and you wont have to fiddle with anything when u get a call...


oh yeah +1 for auto-exec on this, we ar enot talking about legalities here,just technical part of getting the isht to work,nuff bout that isht.

FYI auto-exe
want some money ,dont fly to DC, DRIVE dude..lol

Umm, no its not. It's inadmissible in court if the other party didn't know they were being recorded.

It is legal as long as one of the parties is aware that they are being recorded. Both parties do not have to know they are being recorded. Now if a third party is recording two parties then yes it is illegal, but thats not the case with this.

gentleman. read and learn.

"Federal law allows recording of phone calls and other electronic communications with the consent of at least one party to the call. A majority of the states and territories have adopted laws based on the federal standard. But 12 states, including California, require the consent of all parties to the call. These are are California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington. For a state-by-state guide to taping laws, including a discussion of federal law and references to caselaw, see the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press guide, www.rcfp.org/taping/ ."

so all you guys that don't seem to give a crap about members like me trying to keep your butts out of jail, should. and as far as i'm concerned, this thread should be closed by a mod.

Ok lets forget the legalities for a second...
Does this app work for anyone????

LOL... so much for free speech, eh? I guess, since there are potential applications of this discussion that might be illegal in some states under specific circumstances, that means that we can't help someone figure out if a program works for his purposes?

Again, I don't mean to offend, but unless the thread's titled "Is it legal for me to record both sides of a phone call in my state?", or someone asks for legal advice, I really think posts like these are inappropriate.... IANAL, and I'm guessing you aren't either. It's annoying when you're looking for a solution and a thread gets filled up with irrelevant posts (yes, I realize this is becoming one of those)... and now you're asking for the thread to be closed... so much for thesfactor's problems, eh?
