I'm also still trying to accomplish this mod, but it's not easy at all. Mi 8 is using a very unusual way of handeling sound. I've been looking into this together with Dante63, but we haven't been able to do it at the moment. We're still looking, but without any priority. The earpiece is only able to play at a very low volume anyway. If we happen to find anything, I'll publish it.
Anyone who wants to get a shot at enabling stereo speakers can contact me, I can share what I know at the moment.

The vibrant is basically just the I9000 (form factor wise anyways).
The mounting stuff was not taken out, just the camera itself, so our hack to get the FFC working is just to snap it in & install a new kernel that supports it.
The I9000 didn't have a flash, so it's not that easy for the vibrant. It doesn't have anything to mount it to or anywhere to plug it in at all.
So, if it's possible, it would probably be a significant hack to accomplish.
Thanks Dude. I figured that if it could be done it wuld have already been done. Oh well I wait till August and get whatever is out then.

That is the kind of arrogance that makes me glad of the types that left. Yes theres a FAQ, and yes, there are a few that wont read it. Honestly, the FAQ (at least in the vibrant forum) is a frakin mile long! I can easily see how someone may miss it. Informative yes, but give people a break! Not to mention the breakup into 4 separate sub-forums ect ect, its easy for someone new or doesnt come often to not find their way around well.
Been going on for years, and will persist after you leave.
It's not a completely stupid or worthless question because I see it as do-able. I'm no dev...nor have I worked with the hardware on this phone, but I have thought about integrating a luminous LED as part of the flash. I think it could be as simple as finding th current that turns the camera lens on and integrating the LED power into it. Even if it doesn't 'Flash'...it's still a 'flash' equivalent lighting setting.
The FFC was do-able...I think someone can make a suitable flash for our camera.
Makes me want to work on it myself...
I spent a good 10-15 minutes in the camera app trying to figure out how to turn on flash before I realized the phone didnt have a flash on it! What a surprise damn you samsung!

course a flash would be lovely.but realistically the request to some how install a flash even when no original i9000 variant have a flash built into the unit to simply snap in is ridiculous. lollll
Don't be so quick to judge, I myself have wondered what if this phone had a flash. Honestly, it'd be friggin sweet! That goes without saying.
@Haxel: Awesome points, great attitude!
@p unit: I'm intrigued by your project, have you thought about somehow incorporating an LED flash into an extended battery back plate? More battery life, and maybe since the cover is bigger, you might have more room to work with on fitting a flash in.
good luck!

They are talking about a physical flash a light. not the light software program.
I thought it was a great question since the Fascinate has one. I don't see why having a moderator approve your question would be necessary, since none of the questions would ever get posted since they are questions that are usually way below their intelligence level. Let's be honest here, we as junior members look to developers, kangers and such for advice, guidance, and help. Having an attitude toward the people that look up to you for your knowledge, is pompous, arrogant, and simple minded. If you think there are too many questions, then don't read the posts (you should know what it's about by the title anyway). If you don't have anything to contribute other than a bad attitude, then don't respond and the rest of us will learn the hard way. You guys who don't want to read our questions weren't born with the knowledge you have, so don't assume that just because someone has a question, doesn't mean they haven't tried. Give some of us the benefit of the doubt. We don't all have our faces crushed into a computer screen all day you know........

I have seen an external clip-on type of flash light that you can clip it on your phone and take picture in the dark. I forget which website I saw it. However, it is still in production and not yet available until probably mid or end of this year, so just keep your eyes open.

[Q] Mic doesn't working with CM7

I can't use neither the internal mic or a headset with mic in my B&N Tablet.
Can anyone help me??
Thanks,
Mario
What are you trying to use it for? Its use is very limited and pretty well documented throughout the forum. The only app I find it works well for is google voice searches and dolphin HD. If you are looking for it to work for a phone app then you will be disappointed. Maybe some dev work later on, but I can't say for sure what the plans are.

I've tried to use it for those two apps and doesn't work. I also tried to use it with Skype.
It says that there is an internal error.
the devs ( builders ) have been stuck for a while with some ( critical ) piece called 'ducati' that's giving them a major row... but i am with you about the microphone. i wish and hope the devs give the mic a first class treatment in the internal plumbing and rig in the voip for skype too. so . . . we just have to wait for the 'old car' to get out of the way !

OK, I was trying to flame you. Does that make you feel better. Like I said though, it is getting old you being an ass to others.

Also, if you read this persons post carefully, there is no request for a eta or update regarding when something was going to be completed. It was a question regarding if there has been any progress made that maybe they had missed or couldn't find. This forum is difficult to perform a search for info and find what you are looking for, especially when you are new. With time it becomes easier when you learn to use more defined key words. I guess that is what made me angry when your response was rude and uncalled for in this particular sitiation.

You're literally doing the exact opposite of what you want done. You're ****ting up a thread and not just reporting to a mod. And you weren't trying to be polite, you were being passive aggressive, which is not polite at all. Its an attempt to sound polite while actually being condescending and rude. Its deceitful to the untrained eye.

yes sir, and please note my last post above ( is on the working / cooperating side now ).

In search of a call recorder

One of the Dev's on here pointed me in this direction. Been testing program after program and all seem to use the mic to record the other side of the call. In other words, I have to use the speakerphone for it to work. Does anyone have a solution that will work on EVO 4G?
I was recently using a Collective Rom that had a built in call recorder app. I didn't need to use the speakerphone, and it recorded very well. I'm using a MT4G though...
I believe it was called Collective Absolution. It was ported onto my phone though so look around, maybe they have it for yours. Check and see the Collective roms for your phone. I remember I installed it through the Collective phone settings(their version of the CM9 settings).
Hope I helped.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I've read a few downer threads that talk about HTC phones having problems with this type of application. I don't know if it's still the same now but several threads indicated that HTC doesn't allow their API CPU talk to the Modem CPU (I think that's how it was put...I may be wrong). Anyway...I don't know. I've also seen some people report that the capability was built into some ROM's out there. If what I read was correct, I don't think any particular ROM will be able to solve the issue because of the type of phone I have. Tell me if I'm wrong.
Hmm I'm not sure. From my experience the main problem, at least on my phone, was always that the recording didn't always record both sides. Some people's phones recorded everything perfectly as they spoke, but some others had a problem where it would only record one side of the conversation, either them speaking or the other person but not both. I don't remember any of the technical problems about why that was the case though, this was a few months back.
I'll see if I can extract the apk that rom installed for me and post it here for you. I'm not sure if it's going to install and work immediately on your phone or if you'll have to do something with it to get it working, but it's worth a shot.
Update: Here's the link to the apk.

Nope. Didn't pick up the other side if the conversation. I could only hear myself talking. Very frustrating. You would think this wouldn't be a big deal to do. Any other suggestions?

Sorry dude, I'm all out of ideas. As far as I can tell some phones seem to be able to do it and others can't.

Use 3rd party camera app. Better than Sony's. Check out this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481316
Seems that your solution worked. But the best camera app, the FV-5 is the Only one that offers ISO settings. The worst thing is, you have to pay for that and the free version is only able to take a tiny 0.3MP pics. For now, I think the free 'a better camera' is my best option. Only that it seems to be geared for point and shoot users... Well, I need ISO settings and these aps just give you better colurs. They never give sharper image or less noisier image. I think I need to stay with this app till I get the real fix, or buying FV-5, which I doubt is going to worth the time and cash compared to the original camera app.
Seems that it worked right after I posted that post. Still trying to look for answer on what happened though.

Speech output stops in middle of the sentence

I wanted to show some cool features to my friends, but when I make a google voice search, the speech output interrupts after 2 or 3 seconds. This is very annoying, any idea how to fix this?
I've noticed this but it oddly is not all things... if you do the voice search "what is iphone" it reads loads out quite happily... where if you say "call dominos" it just stops half way through lol.....
The problem with the speech output is another flaw, one of many, in the TrueSmart firmware and cannot be corrected without changes to the firmware source and a recompile. Since no one but MTK has the secret to compiling a bootable firmware for the x201 devices, only they and Umeox can fix this. Since they recognize no incentive to them to fix it, they probably won't. Maybe it will work in the upcoming TrueSmart2 devices...or maybe not. Buy one when they eventually come out ! Throw more money at MTK and Umeox in hopes for a different outcome ?

Sorry for that, but I was redirected from official Omate homepage to here. And I can't imagine that the Omate guys will ignore this forum. I just wanted to mention that my desired features or bugfixes aren't implemented in the new firmware. But ok, i won't mention it again when next FW release is out
Was anybody able to find a fix for this?
It has been quite a while, but maybe someone found a solution in the meanwhile? It would still be great to habe google search working on Omate!
