i need a way to forward all calls to voice mail OR a sound recording app that does not quit... seems simple enough... but i've researched it for hours and i've gotten nowhere.
PROBLEM: i use the 'voice recorder version 1.0' app that came with my droid to record interviews, lectures and meetings (i'm a TERRIBLE note taker!). it works great for all 3 but, annoyingly, as soon as any call comes in the app quits immediately
first attempt at a solution: set the app to ignore phone calls. no such setting on this app that i can find.
second (& just plain obvious) solution attempt... Forward All Calls To Voicemail: I learned that i can call *72 (plus 10-digit phone number) to forward all incoming calls to any phone number. so, i surmised that placing a call to *72, plus my phone number, would work. instead, all callers get a busy signal. i continue to search for some tele number that i could put after the *72 that would send callers to voice mail but have found nothing yet.
third attempt: find a new sound recording app that either doesn't stop recording when a call comes in, or forwards incoming calls for you. i have not found anything - no one even seems curious about a feature like this...
am i missing something simple?
Thank you very much and have a nice day!
