HTC In Call Recording (HTC ICR) - QVGA!

Finally came across a QVGA version of HTC ICR and it installs and doesn't freeze the phone like other VGA versions I have tried. But for some reason when I click start recording in call the phone doesn't do anything. I'm trying to figure out if it is just my ROM, or something else. I'm running NSFFAN 1.28 Bell. Can someone else try it out and report back?


Here's the QVGA file:

Here's the instructions:

1. Install the ICRQVGA cab to your device memory and do the soft reset after.
DONT INSTALL ANY SECONDARY RECORDING PROGRAM YET!!
2. When the phone restarts make a test call to your customer services line or an automated line, when it picks up goto the dialer menu in the bottom right corner and click start rescording. If you dont see the Start Recording option then come out and just install ICRQVGA again (that fixed it for me).
3. When you select start recording AFTER a call has been established then you should see a red circle in the call screen next to the persons name.
4. Let it record for about 15 seconds and then go back into the dialer menu and select stop recording. The red circle in the screen will then disapear and you can end the call (after I ended the call I heard 2 beeps which are linked to ICR).
5. Goto Start, Programs, ICR and you should see the call you just made in the list.
6. Click on the Recording to start playing it and make sure it recorded the incoming part of the call.
7. If it worked you can just leave it at that and use ICR to record your conversations as it works just fine by itself (you just need to start recording manually from the phone menu after the call has been established). The are options in ICR to record in AMR or WAV format and to record to the device or Storage Card (it saves the file to My Documents, Recording).
Alternatively you can then install a secondary recording program such as Resco Audio Recorder or Vito Audio Notes (standard or touch version), then set the option for auto record to capture all conversations.

I can say that it works fine with all the Vito versions, I always used to have trouble with Resco Recorder as it used to freeze my phone up so I would tend to recommend Vito Audio Notes. A secondary program is ONLY needed if you want to Auto Record Conversations or if you want to record in mp3 format (as ICR doesnt support this).
