Hi [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION], just bought two licenses, thanks for the sale :)

is there some beta testing channel or similar available to get latest alpha/beta automatically?

I remember you had it with old 2.x versions through PlayStore...

Thanks for the great app <3

Hi [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION], what are your thoughts about Google cracking down on apps accessing things like the call log? Looks like ACR is already taken down?

Hi [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION], what are your thoughts about Google cracking down on apps accessing things like the call log? Looks like ACR is already taken down?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Extra Virgin:
Hi [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION],

Love your work. Is it possible to make call recorder play well with call-screening option? I'm using a pixel 2 XL would appreciate any help. Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Wrote an article showing what I'll have to remove if Google denies me too: https://skvalex.org/help/call-log-ban
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] zyonee:
If that happens, is there any way to circumvent it on rooted devices?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sash11:
You can still distribute your app as an apk from a source other than the Play Store right even if google denies your request?

Thanks, [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION], this app works on Xiaomi mi6 (PixelExperience, 9.0)

Installed trial from Google Play, installed Root module.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Got rejection from Google today.

https://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/9xgajt/google_rejected_my_app_to_have_call_permissions/
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] acwcanada:
So now what's going to happen?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
I'll send an appeal later. Will hope Google accept it and grant me these two permissions finally. We have time till 9th January.

If things won't work out, I'll have to push an update without these permissions or unpublish the app from Google Play.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] acwcanada:
Thanks for your advise. I came from ACR to purchase yours because it is the only one which supports Android Pie. But if it is going to give me everything as unknown in the log then it would totally lost the purpose to recording calls as then I would have to play each one to find the one I am looking. Hope you can resolve this one with Google.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] zyonee:
Can those limitations be circumvented by releasing the apk elsewhere?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Yes, these restrictions apply for Play Store version only.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fvisagie:
Good luck with that, anyway.

Can't seem to get this working on my pixel 3 xl with roof, any tips? I've used this for years (paid version) on all my rooted lock phones, don't know what the problem is now
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sash11:
It does not record at all or partially record? Did you install root module and changed to root recording method?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] in_dmand:
Ahhh you nailed it. Had to make sure I got the root module! Works perfect now!

Hello skvalex,

Was a very happy user untill Nokia decided to update my Nokia 7 plus to Pie. I wouldn't mind rooting at all but as long as they refuse to give me a way to unlock my bootloader i'm stuck. About the thing your wirte that i quoted: so you can make a version that works like before? Is there a way to do this and make it downloadable form your website? I wouldn't mind having a non Store but working version!!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ja_som:
There is no way how to make it work as before w/o root, that is not blocked with any privacy policy, it is blocked in system, so you need root to work around it.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Droidphilev:
Argh, ok. I must have misunderstood the "only applies to Play Store version".

stereo: use one channel for local, other for remote end - is it possible?

I have searched the forum but only repeatedly see the question without a reply (I noticed). Not urgently needed but would be really handy if possible. I am now on my n-th device (Xperia XZ1) with call recorder (starting with my Xperia Ray in 2012) - and still it works - GREAT!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Some devices allow to record in stereo without root:

- Huawei devices with HiSilicon chipset

- MediaTek devices with Android 7+

Some devices can record stereo with root:

- Galaxy S9+ (Exynos) and, I guess, other devices with the same chipset

Some devices need to have root and custom kernel:

- Qualcomm based devices

But most devices on Qualcomm don't have custom kernel with stereo recording
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tobbbie:
OK, thanks - do you check at startup/runtime if the option is present? If you can detect it (I hope) then just do not offer the stereo option for devices without the capability. This would also permit to check easily once you have a custom kernel on your device (no test-call needed).

Constant Battery Usage Notification on Pie!

Guys since Pie release this app is always appearing under battery stats for High Background Usage, is that a false positive or true? Any way around it?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ja_som:
I don't have it in Digital Wellbeing, also when I check Settings/Apps/Call Recorder/Time Spent in app, Screen Time and Times opened are 0, but Notifications received is about 30 every day.

Can't say now the battery usage under app info, because my device is on the charger now, it shows 0 since last full charge.

How can I force call recorder to ask root again?

I have granted superuser to the call_recorder_root apk a few weeks ago, I can see it in its logs but I suspect it doesn't work anymore. Hence I reinstalled all 3 apks again, Magisk doesn't show call recorder in superuser list so how can I re-grant again?

SOLVED by reinstalling the root app
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nevoozer:
So following the last update my phone (One plus 6) does not get the other`s person voice when I speak in

bluetooth

, all I hear in the recording is my voice but not the other person`s.

I tried all of the recording methods, my phone isn`t rooted, please can someone help me solve it?

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sash11:
If by last update you mean Android Pie, than you are out of luck if you don't have root.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dna1982:
if Google wouldn't accept it, why not move outgoing calls & Call logs permissions to root apk.

this way those info we need can be obtained remotely from root apk, right?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] slam666:
Hi skvalex,

2 things:

1- Can you tell us whats new in the latest beta?

2- Can you give us some feedback on JB, most people cant record on JB. Will it work one day?

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] hvihavai:
Hi,

Call recording works just fine on JB. I have HTC One X with ARHD 12.0 JB rom.

And the old call recording patch works just like it did on ICS.

So at least for One X no problems...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SSS Desire:
i did a couple of restarts, and now everything's working fine including incoming and outgoing calls recording. i didn't flash the two-way recording patch which means the call recording mod in OrDroidX works well too
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
1. - few bugs were fixed

- automatically converting from WAV to AMR (experimental features)

- new tab "Tasks" for queue of converting recordings

2. The problem isn't in the version of Android. For example, the app does work on Galaxy Nexus GSM with Jelly Bean. The problem may be in your ROM/kernel or in a settings of the app. If any other app for call recording works on your phone - let me know.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Alexander1988:
Total Recall S2 & S3 but recording quality wasn't great and I couldn't say what source(kernel, standard api) it used because it didn't specify, it only had 3 recording strategies to choose from (1,2,3). I currently using a S2, rooted, Android 4.1.2 (aokp, cm and rootbox combination ROM) and a kernel with lots of tweaks :D. I don't really know what else to say.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pvdeejay:
I am using SGS2 GTI9100 with CM-10 Android 4.1.2. When I have installed the app, and started it for the first time it displayed a warning that samsung removed some libs in ICS. Tapping that warning I can install some libraries. By long tapping this warning I can get rid of that warning. I have newer long tapped that warning and after each update of my rom I have to tap this warning in order to install proper libs.

This way I do have recording working well.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Millenium Apps:
very nice

Thanks for sharing this useful app,

It is interesting to record calls and your app do it very well :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] toxic-hero:
there's a bug in beta4: everytime i answer a call the external microphone is being used. i rebooted the phone and it was the same, than i installed google play store version and everything went back to normal.

HTC desire S, ICS
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sometin:
HTC Desire Z

Hi,

I flashed ICS into my Desire Z (Vision) from Miui and from xda but whenever i install the 2 way kernel the phone 'bricks'. I see the HTC startup logo then black. Buttons are lighted up. After 30 mins or so the phone turns off.

Which kernel should i install to work with ICS and Callrecorder? I found a lourdemod 2wcr for ics and am trying that kernel.

When I flash the roms back the phones are working fine.

This kernel used to work fine in my previous version of android and the software worked perfectly then.

callrecorder requires the kernel for my phone i believe...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] toxic-hero:
have you tried it with default kernel? i know that on my phone (desire s) 2way c r works natively on ICS (only .amr).

ps - "bricked" is not the right word. when the phone is bricked, you can throw it away because it's a brick. ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] miwanr:
This app doesn't record call in MIUI ROM with this kernel (in pict)

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] wsleone:
skvalex, how do I install CallRecorder_v.1.3_beta05.zip ?

thanks (my version of call recording is purchased)

EDIT

solution rename .zip to .apk and install
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] faoozzie:
is it works with my galaxy note 2??
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SSS Desire:
The recordings on both incoming and outgoing calls work without problem. The only issue is only with the playback which sometimes plays in fast forward manner. When this happens it also affects the sound notifications (calls, SMS, alarm, etc) which also plays in fast forward manner. The only thing which resolve this and get all sounds back to normal is by restarting the phone. It's annoying to having to restart the phone a few times in a day. My questions:

1. Why is this happening?

2. Is it related to the rom?

3. Any way to fix this?

For information, I'm using JB Sense OrDroidX 7.1.0 with call recording mod within the rom itself and I'm still on v1.2.9 of this app.

Any feedback is much appreciated.

EDIT: The call recording within the rom is onepagebook's two-way recording patch.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MasterLinuxer:
After installing 1.2.9 on my Xperia S w/ JB (CM10) it is finally recording outgoing/incoming calls, at list shows like it does. The problem is I can't hear it.. What now? :/
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] hvihavai:
I too get this sometimes, but I'm able to "fix" it by calling to someone (usually voicemail) and enabling speaker phone, after that sounds are back to normal.

The strange thing this "fast forward" sound doesn't happen after all of the calls.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] wsleone:
I feel the same
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SSS Desire:
If disabled, try to enable call delay to e.g. 0.1sec. For me, I set the outgoing and incoming calls delay at 0.3sec and 0.1sec, respectively.

So far so good after 5++ hours. I'll give feedback tomorrow if this works.

EDIT: After 12++ hours it fails to work again. now I've changed both the incoming and outgoing calls delay to 0.1sec. I'll again update if this works.

EDIT2: Changing both the incoming and outgoing calls delay to 0.1sec also not resolving the issue. It seem the fast forward playback occurs after phone calls (incoming or outgoing).
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dneto:
Hi mate,

In tasks, it could also have the functionality to convert names based on new format defined. =]

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aillez:
that a shame..

Google...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rioachim:
Tasker will still have these permissions, so could it act as a gateway for call recording? I am more concerned about Pie requiring root.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Hippie459MN:
I have a question, I have been using this app for well over 8 years or so and I recently had it start force closing on me and I was going to re-download it and noticed it was gone from the play store only to find that its been replaced by this newer version (That would explain why I didnt get any updates in over a year) and I was also part of the beta if I remember right through G+ or something (Was getting many updates a week for a while) and I also paid for it way back in like 2010-2011 and now to restore the lic, its asking for a transaction ID and I dont have it and because the old version is removed from the play store, it doesnt show up in my purchased apps anymore and I have no idea where I would find my transaction ID. Apparently I didnt save the email from Google either or I deleted it after a while. I really hate to pay $10 for an app I already paid $10 for long ago. Just wondering if I am stucking having to pay for it again or what. Thanks for this amazing app by the way.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ja_som:
Send an email to skvalex.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tobbbie:
2 way to find it:

- go to the skvalex homepage: https://callrecorder.skvalex.com/info and register for the client area. In the process you get a hint where to look in google transactions. I had not found it myself before as well - but this link revealed it.

- in your google mail (unless you deleted it there online) search in the "all emails" folder

Verizon is Upgrading me from the Pixel XL to Pixel 3 XL for FREE, because of the hassle they've put me through with RMA's of defective units.....

But now it sounds like I won't be able to use this INCREDIBLE app.....

hoping there's somebody here to tell me otherwise...

I need to record calls made using Bluetooth headset on Verizon Pixel 3 XL.... Is there any hope?????

This is the most dissapointing "upgrade" EVER!!!!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
If you'll be able to get root on that phone, then you should be fine
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] parakleet:
Verizon bootloaders are locked.

Rooting is practically impossible.

I think they finally achieved root on the Pixel earlier this year.

maybe temp root on the 2

Either way unless they send you a Google version of the phone, which I read happens every now and then, you are SOL
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Hippie459MN:
Done and taken care of. Thanks. :)

I was already registered from when I purchased it long ago and I was loggin in in the app using my google account. I had to log out via google and log back in using my email and password and that fixed it right up for me. Sometimes its the simplest things. I did have to reset my password though cause it had been so long I forgot what it was. lol

Thanks guys (or gals). :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nevoozer:
Will root solve my issue? what should i do after rooting?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Yes, after rooting - install ROOT module from the OP and select ROOT method in Settings > Recording.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] drobicek:
Hi,

I have two problems:

1 - from yesterday I do not record incoming and outgoing calls.

The triangle appears in the upper-left corner and the program writes: there was an error, this call can not be recorded.

It worked for several years yesterday.

Nothing has changed in the phone.

2- In the new S9 + phone, recording starts immediately, so the ringtone is also recorded. In the previous NOTE2 phone, my recording started after the call was connected.

Thank you

please peace no war
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
1. Try to record on internal storage, also make sure Wi-Fi calls are disabled and the latest version 3.0.4 is installed

2. You need to have root access and ROOT module installed, or if you don't have root, you may install ROOT module and grant read logs permission via adb:

$ adb shell pm grant org.skvalex.cr.root android.permission.READ_LOGS
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] drobicek:
1- wifi turned off, version 304, but i have an SD card and 6 years there was no problem until yesterday

2- yes I have ROOT and as I write, I use 6 years and until yesterday it worked,nothing has changed in the phone
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
1. So you say the problem persists while recording on internal storage as well?

2. Is option "start recording on answer" enabled? Does Call Recorder ROOT asks for root?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] drobicek:
solved!

Internal memory works.

But I need an SD card.

Until yesterday it worked on the SD card, why not today?

This is the best application!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kantzow:
This is interesting, my Call Recorder stopped working on my Pixel 3 (non-XL) on the 30th as well.. The device is rooted and all was working well up until 30/11. I've tried clearing cache/storage, then uninstalled ROOT apk and Play apk. Reinstalled but the problem persists. Did some update roll out that we don't know about?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dethknite:
Are you on Project Fi? Did you perhaps enable the new "Enhance Network" beta that just rolled out in the new Project Fi app about a week ago (creates an always on VPN to Google). Not sure if this could cause issues, but it is worth looking into since I had turned it on initially and off a couple days later... and in retrospect, remember a few of my calls not recording or showing up 0 seconds.

It is working currently for me... (Pixel 3, Dec patch, Rooted)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kantzow:
Not on Project Fi, regular Pixel 3 with just Magisk root. This is very weird, [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION] - I can provide debug logs if you need.

As stated I tried clearing data/cache, then uninstalling both APKs (App & ROOT module), re-installing from Google Play and still this problem persists :(
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dethknite:
It is weird, but my recordings sometimes end up 0 bytes. It seems this happens on outgoing calls so far. Incoming are recording fine. I have 2 sec. / 2 sec. wait set for in/out. I am thinking that turning up the outgoing wait time... or turn off the start recording on answer and try to manually start it... might fix what I am seeing.

Pixel 3, latest dec update, ElementalX kernel, Magisk root, call recorder latest, root module installed, Recording set to Root, Standard API, Voice call uplink + downlink.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kantzow:
Ok just wanted to update the folks, I finally got it working by re-installing Magisk 17.3 from within the Magisk app itself. Rebooted and then it worked, weird is that other root apps worked without issues with the Magisk that was installed.

Anyways back up and running!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] yreham:
Hello, can i use this app as a substitute for my voicemail?

Like can it answer a call automatically after a certain number of rings?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] badai:
Short answer: No.

Long answer: Yes. Make your phone auto pick up like when you use handsfree.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Hippie459MN:
This app have nothing to do with anything related to Voicemail. This is for recording phone calls between two people, thats it. It will not answer the phone for you either. You can set it however to start recording your phone call when your phone either places or answers a call.

If you want auto answer, that is in your phones actual settings and can only be used when hands free (i.e. bluetooth turned on) is being used if om not mistaken. I personally dont use auto answer and never will cause I dont always want to talk to the person calling. lol
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marvino.:
Does anyone knows if there's a substratum theme for this app out there? Why it seems like impossible to find one for this high reputed call recording app? I would like to be able to change the green accent color or you may give it a new look by implementing theming options at the next versions (?)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tugaia56:

[MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION] contacted me to give you an answer, some time ago I asked him for advice to fear the app with my theme and remembered me, I'll tell you right away that you do not find it on the playstore, but only on my site and in the group of my theme, theme that I have done for myself, for friends and for anyone who wants to join, if you want to participate and download the theme you are welcome OnePlus Mods & Theme

ps: I do not know if my theme works on Samsung, wait to prove that I have to finish updating some apps, if it does not work report in the group, I can prepare separate apk for just call recorder by [MENTION=2859866]skvalex[/MENTION]
