Audio Recording Help - LG G6 Questions and Answers

Ok, so I am using the LG G6 but I may have to return it unless someone can help. I use an app through my business to send audio messages to team members. It works with .mp3 messages which is what most phones record in. The app launches a "default LG recorder" which automatically records in .aac format. (There is NO way in this app to change it's recording format) I know this is an LG issue because the Galaxy S7, Note 7, iphone 7+ all work fine.
I disabled the stock LG recording app called HD Audio recorder (however this app seems to be completely separate from the "baked in" lg recording app) and installed a 3rd party but this didn't make any difference. It still used the "default LG recorder" app that must be built right into the phone.
Is there a way that I'm unaware of to change the standard recording format to .mp3? Thanks a ton!

Recording video in background

Hi there.
Anyone knows the way to continue recording video with HD2 in background?
I'd like to both make video recording and use the GPS navigation program.
Since the functionality of standard video camera application on HD2 is rather good (sound recording, different types of recording, nice quality) I failed to find any good alternative for it. I know only two programs which are positioned as video register programs for PDAs and both them are not suitable due to a number of reasons. (both apps I'm referring to are oriented to Russian market, AvtoDVR and MyDVR).
May be anyone knows the register key which allows to continue video recording after sending the camera application to the background?
Thanks for help!
I second the request.
I subscribed to a thread which has since long been dead, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597003 where we were asking for this exactly (and a little more, as well) and AutoDVR came up too.
There's a problem tho: it's pay2use, and a program with banal background video recording shouldn't be (but AutoDVR still offers other interesting features, like video looping through MJPEG format, and gps speed watermarking), and it is severely messed up on the HD2 (as in, not useable, as soon as you switch it to background/lock the phone, the video gets garbled and the program interface does, as well)

Any good audio recorder?

Hey guys, is there any good audio recorder for HD2 that supports background recording (unlike default one)?
So when I lock my device, it would keep recording everything.

Call recording on the 6P?

Does anybody with the knowledge and experience in such matters think it's likely we'll get proper VOICE_CALL call recording when CM 13 comes to the 6P?
Reasons for asking
I've got a perfect unicorn 6P but need call recording and the RMA window is closing. All of the Play Store call recording apps seem to use MIC instead of VOICE_CALL, @boldbeast suggests it's because Huawei disabled call recording. I'd love to know more about how Huawei accomplished that - broken drivers? removed kernel support?
+1 for call recording

skyvalex call recorder is working for me. The record on answer for outgoing calls is the only feature not working. The app says that a kernel w/ logging enabled is needed for that feature. Until then outgoing calls will start recording from the first ring instead of on answer. Incoming call recording works great. It begins recording when you answer the call.

skvalex would be great but it won't work if you don't have Google Play installed. One of my phones is Google-less and I don't want to compromise its battery life and security by adding GApps. A native 2-way call recording solution is preferred, or an app that works sans Google would be fine.
Yes, Huawei disabled the call recording feature of Nexus 6P Android 6.0, so normal recorders don't work well. You should root your phone to fix the problem.
After root, please install Boldbeast Call Recorder, use these settings to record calls:
- Record Mode: 1
- Record Format: MP4
- Tune Audio Effect: No
- Tune Audio Route: test No and Group3
- Change Audio Controls: Yes
- Change Audio Driver: No
- Start Input Stream: Yes
Or use these settings to record calls:
- Record Mode: Alsa
- Alsa Channels: 2 Channels
- Tune Audio Effect: No
- Tune Audio Route: Group3
- Change Audio Controls: Yes
- Change Audio Driver: No
- Start Input Stream: Yes
The app records calls perfectly in two directions.
Updated 2016-03-19
================
If you updated your Nexus 6P to Android 6.0.1, please also change following options in the app then both Android 6.0 and Android 6.0.1 work well.
- Call Settings - Incoming Calls - Auto Detect Answered State: Yes
- Call Settings - Incoming Calls - Auto Detect Max Time (Seconds): 4 ---------------> Change to 100
- Call Settings - Incoming Calls - Restart Recording Upon Answered: Yes
- Call Settings - Outgoing Calls - Auto Detect Answered State: Yes
- Call Settings - Outgoing Calls - Auto Detect Max Time (Seconds): 4
- Call Settings - Outgoing Calls - Restart Recording Upon Answered: Yes
@cali310 , did you have root your phone or use any tricks to get it to work? All the posts that I have read to date seems to require a rooted phone.

What settings do you use? Skvalex doesn't recognize this as a 6P, and the default settings do not work for me.

There is only a version for Play store, but this is what i am using on my Nexus 5 right now. With a Wired headset it is working. I would love confirmation that it works on a 6P or 5X before buying one.

The ALSA settings through Boldbeast are also working for me. Thanks!
This one works for me! Jit Call Recorder.
Crisp recording and sound - especially when two people have HD Voice-enabled phones.

I have my 6P rooted and have Boldbeast installed.
Using the Alsa settings, when I call someone the button won't press. Nothing "happens", as in, it doesn't activate.
Do you know what to do?
Thanks for a great app. Used it on my M8 previously.

1. Please uninstall all other recorders if any.
2. disable the "Call Settings - Manually Record Calls - Button In Call Movable" option in Boldbeast Recorder.
3. Now it should work. If the problem is still there please click the "Call Settings - Fix Recording Issues - Ask New Parameters" item in Boldbeast Recorder to send hardware log files to me, let me have a look at them and see what happened.

The app that I used to use on my Note 4 was the pro version of Automatic Call Recorder from Google Play, but that doesn't work properly on my 6p, which is what led me to this thread. So, basically unless you are rooted there is no way to get call recording on 6p? This really sucks, 6p is hands down my favorite phone of all time, but call recording is important to me.
Above alsa mode works great for me on incoming and outgoing calls. Thanks

I checked the Nexus 6P Android 6.0 ROM, a very important recording parameter was deleted by Huawei in the ROM, as a result it's absolutely impossible for any recorder to record calls well without root.
So root is the only way to go.

i set record source audio to VOICE_COMMUNICATION
and i ear both people speak ,one more low than other,but is ok for me.
My device is not rooted.

Screen Record With Device Audio

How to Record HD audio and take pictures?

Hey guys,
Got my V20 a few weeks ago and enjoying every day so far. I had a short question.. Let's say I'm at a presentation or class I want to record using the HD Audio Recorder app, and at the same time, I would like to take some pictures.
Any idea what to do? The HD audio recording stops recording once I take a picture..
No buddy has a solution?
Maybe try split screen?

HD Audio Recorder gives a msg claiming that Multi Window is not supported
Maybe a separate camera app.
Camera app requires access to camera and microphone which prevent another audio recording app to use the mic. My suggestion is, if you really needs it, try recording video and taking pictures at the same time. later you can split the audio from the video.
I tried to find out solution for that , but nothing worked for me not without root .
U cant use camera and record audio at the same time
U cant play music on the background and record audio at the same time too
