Sound Recorder - New Application by Pete

This came with BBv.04. He says he ported it to the Droid X. Must be some experimenting he's doing since we all voted for him to win a Droid X.

 

I thought that app was for the droid x

 

Original post:
Pete's app is just a shortcut to the existing app, SoundRecorder.apk, in /system/app. If that app doesn't exist, Pete's app will do nothing but FC. I think it's annoying that the stock recording app doesn't appear in the launcher app list, so I took it upon myself to modify it to do so (a simple edit in AndroidManifest.xml).

Rename the file to SoundRecorder.apk, and you're all set!

Modified post:
Why have another Sound Recorder app that acts as a shortcut to the real app? I think it makes more sense to just have one app that appears in the launcher app list. To that end, I modified the stock app (found in /system/app) to show up in the app list.

Rename the file to SoundRecorder.apk, replace the SoundRecorder.apk in /system/app with this version, and reboot. Please make sure to back up the original app before installing my modified version.

 

The post with sound recorder was deleted. This is a paid app and cannot be distributed in the Droid Forums.

Distribution of paid apps can get you an infraction. Please do not repost.

 

Post removed (no longer relevant now that the moderator restored my previous post)

 

OK the post is back up. You have to understand that I was just looking at the name of the device and I checked the Market and saw it was a paid app. After reviewing with Admin it's OK to post.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

 

That's OK, I figured as much - I know mods are very busy on these forums. So, thanks for putting my post back up. In retrospect, I wasn't very clear in my original post that I was modifying the stock app and not Pete's paid app (which comes at no cost with BB 0.5 anyway).
