[Q] Why do all call recorders record only one side of the call ? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am in need of call recording on my T-Mobile S4.
When I had CM 10.1 I download an app from the app store and was immediately recording both sides of the conversation. Now that I am running stock T-Mobile rom I am only able to record my side of the call.
What is the solution ?
Thank you,
Mike

ACR gives me both side recording. What's the app you are using?
If CM had no problem in recording then Stock ROM shouldn't have either!
PS : Could it be your carrier blocking something? T-Mobile I mean?

CM doesn't allow full duplex recording, same happen in s2, it is a known issue. Stock rom allow it with no problems.

Every call recorder I have tried only records one side of the call. When I had CM10.1 this was not the case. Not sure what the problem is.
Oddly enough on my stock s3 call recording works perfectly.
The app I loved when I had cm10.1 was Call Recorder by Sethi Apps.

Not sure about the firmware restriction... stock rom on s4 records both sides.
I use ACR, is the best to me

Yes, in S2 also worked full duplex recording in CM10, but it doesn't in CM11. In S4 it works ok with stock ROM and stock based ROMs. The problem, I repeat, could be CM11. In s2 it is a known issue pending to fix, I assume in S4 same happen even it is not writen in CM11 S4 known issue wiki.

The restriction is not with the mobile but with Android OS version. Both side call recording might work for some days and after you upgrade your OS it might stop working. To record both side use Speaker mode during call. I am a Android Developer myself and have created a call recorder software called "Spy Call Recorder" in TrackMyPhone website.

tell google and the playstore if you're sure, that way you can really ruin his day... :good:

Its not virus but since it can be used as spyware as the icon can be hidden few anti virus show that as virus/malware or whatever. Its not available on Google Play. You need to download from website directly.

[Q] Call-Recorder in Defy?

Hello everybody,
Does Defy has auto call-recorder just like Moto XT701? If not, does there has any third party app can do that?
Doesn't seem like it. As far as apps im sure there are but i've never needed one so not sure.
Sent from my DEFY using XDA app
I suppose you can only record calls using the microphone+speakerphone on Defy, correct?
P.S. The XT701 has call recording? Sure?
2.2 roms have built in recorder
xt701 or defy?
just a voice recorder or 2-way call recording?
2.2 defy has 2 way call recording integrated in the firmware, it also sports built in firewall.
Really? Which 2.2 ROM are you rocking with?
You can do it with Google Voice, it’s really easy, just press 4 and it will start recording the conversation. You’ll find the conversation in your Voice control panel within a few minutes and you can send the recording to the other party easily from the control panel.
Guys, call recorder in Chinese 2.2 ROM is playing a recording sound...
I mean the person you are talking with (and you also) hear some beeps.
Is there any way to disable this?

Understandable as a compromise of having the function while not being too creepy.
If you want to get creepy you can always use speakerphone+microphone.

can it be extracted as a .apk?
can a cook or someone with the 2.2 rom find a way to extract the call recorder app so it can be installed on any Defy?
It seems to me that only works with blur:
We need 2 way call recorder; NOW!

so your saying the chinese 2.2 rom works with 2-way recording but only with blur apps and services installed?
thanks.
Yes, and blur sucks and its slow, thats why all rom moders release deblurred roms
This may not be possible with any rom any than the Chinese 2.2. I saw many Chinese users requesting call recording in other rom eventually went back to the Chinese 2.2 rom.
The best app for call recording is Ultimate Voice Recorder For Android and it's working on Defy.

Hi, this is NLL, thanks for using ACR.
ACR thoroughly tested on S4 and S3 and works just fine unless yours is US version.
Not sure why but no recording app works on US versions of S series.
This is not the end of it though. One of my users found out that if you enable and disable loudspeaker during call ACR is able to record full 2 way conversation on US models.
I am trying to automate this feature so that ACR momentarily enables and disables loud speaker in US versions. Here is the dev version of ACR that enables an option in settings for US models of S3 and S4 only.
Please note that this version will reset some of your settings such as excluded numbers and important recordings setting
In some countries Galaxy S4 GT-I9500, GT-I9505, GT-I9506 can record calls well, almost all call recorders work, no root needed.
In some other countries Samsung disabled the call recording feature, as a result in recordings your voice is weak or the caller's voice is weak. There are more than 1000 Android call recorders in the market, but only several recorders can fix this problem. Have a look at this app: Boldbeast Call Recorder If you root your phone, bluetooth recording works also.

Question: Phone Recorder Still work in stock KK 4.4.2?

Just wondering phone recording function still working after upgrade to Kitkat 4.4.2?
Current 4.3 is able to record 2-way phone call clearly event with head set. (no need to enable speaker).

i haven't tried kitkat because there are way too many glitches and i'm really happy with 4.3.
but some developers of the apps that can record calls are putting notes that samsung has disabled 2way phone call in kitkat.. so i think answer is no.
stick to 4.3

No the sound output from the recording is just white noise. It seems to work but the recording isn't anywhere near clear
Which recorder apps are you using to record? Normally there is audio source to choose, need to select audio call instead of mic.

In order to use build in recorder, need to root and enable in Xpose module. I am still unroot with stock ROM, I think third party apps also get the audio from the same source. So the unknown is whether the audio source unavailable or the build in recorder not functioning. Don't mind try to install third party apps such as "automatic call recorder", choose Voice Call as audio source to try out?

The app "InCall Recorder" works great. It is non longer maintained but it still works, and for like a dollar you can activate the premium features which automatically record all calls and you can have it automatically upload to dropbox.
com.grinzone.incallrecorder is the package name in case you can't find it. It is no longer on play store and the xda page only has links to play store.

Call recording on Android 9

Have you managed to solve someone's call recording on Android 9?
Try call recorder by SKVALEX. Find it in Google play store. Works flawlessly on mine. I'm using Qualcomm snapdragon model. Cheers!

So I understand that it is enough to buy Thai SIM, put it on the phone and it unlocks the call recording function?

Ended up being too much trouble. Pie. Reverted back to Oreo. Life makes sense again.
Cube Abr work on note 9 exynos but i cant figure out what are best phone recording audio source. There are
- voice comunication
- voice comunicatiiin software
- voice call
- voice call software
-microphone
The thing is that every source sims to had effect on interlocutors voice loudness and clarity. Please try all and report

Before I reverted back to Oreo, I tried this app. Along with the current state of ACR, the SKVALEX app also suffers from the exact same problem. It's not directly recording the other end, only using the phone's speaker to listen. So the voice on the other end is at a very low volume. Even when boosting the decibels in the app settings, it's not as clear and loud as when either apps were working whilst on Oreo. This also means that phone numbers still can't be recorded by either app. As stated by pop up messages inside both apps.
This may be fine for some but I don't think Pie and One UI is worth losing FIRM call recording capabilities. Along with other features we've come to rely on on Oreo.
Just my two cents on it.

don't be angry I am still bothering. I'm thinking about it. I'll put a Thai SIM on my phone. Thailand SIM unlocks call recording. if I return Czech SIM to my phone, the recording function will be locked again or not?
Cube ACR
I'm on unlocked stock and wouldn't want to do anything to risk Samsung Pay functionality, so still stick with Oreo?
how to revert back to oreo? Will I lose all my current data?? thanks for your guidance
Call recording in Android 9 (Samsung Galaxy S8)
No call recording app can record bothway voice calls on Android 9 unless the phone maker dialer provides inbuilt recording feature for a particular region. I have tried many on my Galaxy S8 but found no luck. Call recording is an important feature which is essential for millions. Google should open the relevant API so that the app makers can bring back call recording. BTW, Cube ACR couldn't do bothway call recording on my S8. The best call recorder was NLL's ACR for Android 8. It doesn't work for Android 9 though NLL published an unchained version. This unchained version also can't record bothway calls.

I have downgraded my galaxy s8 to Oreo from Pie to enable call recording. Now ACR (by nll) works fine like before. I am not going to upgrade to Pie again if google or Samsung doesn't open call recording API. Call recording is necessary for me like millions.

SKVALEX worked on my note 9 up to the last Android v8.1.0 Oreo release, once it hit Android v9.0 pie it stopped, all call recorders did. Android removed call recording capability with pie. Sux, I hope someone finds a workaround for it because it was really handy, didn't need to write crap down when getting info or directions from someone.
How do I revert my Samsung Note 8 back to Oreo to get back recording feature?
