The standard way to do real-time audio over a network connection is using RTP (real time protocol), which is what Voice Over IP is based on. While there are almost certainly RTP libraries available in Java, I'm not sure Android will let you get straight PCM data from the microphone or send PCM data straight to the speaker/headphones.
That's your main question, Kevin. In Linux you would do this using ALSA. I'm pretty sure Android will let you wrap the PCM data (or unwrap it) into RTP and send it along (if not you could fake it over HTTP, but it'd be messy), but the other end requires low level hardware access. Two sort of answer both of your questions, if you can get that close to the hardware you'll most likely need "root" access which means it wouldn't be a normal Android Market app. On Sep 21, 12:19 am, kevin j <ken...@verizon.net> wrote: > I'm interested in something similar.
