phone: XT1929-4

After upgrading, the calls had a speed problem. Having read previous comments, I changed from root to standard api. The app seemed to function correctly, however once two important calls came it failed me.

I prefer reliability over features.

after upgrading, I'm unable to install the the alpha 07 or previous apk versions.

I'd really be happy with one of the old Magisk versions. like two releases ago.

Could you please attach one of the older magisk zips.

Thank you.

I was recently trying to see what was draining my battery (galaxy s3 i747m) and saw that callrecorder had wakelocks for 26 minutes out of a 5 hour idle period. During this time, I had not recieved/made any calls. Why is callercorder waking up my phone?

Update: realized that callrecorder wasn't working since I upgraded to jelly bean 2 days ago.

installed beta and use the Qualcomm device setting with alsa. Recordings are now crackly. before was much clearer.... is there any way to fix it?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] wtfwtf222:
yea, same. have crackling with those settings (rogers gs3). please try to fix :)

You need a kernel with 2-way recording patch included. To update the kernel you need an unlocked bootloader afaik. I don't know if that patch could be updated with a rooted phone only as well.

any news concerning the bluetooth problem on SGN2?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pakraider:
FYI, the 1.3 beta 12 works flawlessly on the T-Mobile GS3 running CM10, with Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 as the device, standard API, AAC, and 'Default' as the source. Crisp and clear with no crackle.

The call duration is wrong in the list, but when you play back the recording the status bar at the bottom does have the right duration. Seems to be a bug?

can this app be patched or is already compatible with this kernel? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35243629&posted=1#post35243629

I tested this kernel with galaxy note 2 from at&t and worked... or perhaps there is some settings i need to apply in call recorder app? Also, the call recorder works when bluetooth is off, but when on, i cannot here myself during a conversation.

Skvalex,

Any plans one a working solution for a Nexus 4.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] slam666:
GS3 on Stock JB (Rogers) work only with Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 as the device, Alsa mixer, Wave. If I try Std API with AAC I cant hear conversation because of static.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] lowspeed:
You should make the paid app just a license app so we could install these releases and not worried about them expiring...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] giant22000:
For those that might be interested, the Nexus 4 works with the following settings:

Device set to "other". Record calls from "Standard Android API" and Standard Android API Preferences audio source set to "default".

The volume is a little bit low but does record both sides of the conversation with good quality. Maybe later updates will implement the Nexus 4 as an officially supported device with normal audio levels.

Hope this helps.

Updated to show what ROM/Kernel I'm using:

I'm using the latest CM10.1 Nightly and the stock kernel that comes along with it.

I don't have old magisk versions. And I don't think that it's related. What settings in Standard API have you set? Please, take a screenshot.

How calls have failed? Was it not recorded at all or they recorded, but just silence inside them or they recorded fine, but you can't hear the other side on recording. Or they failed in some other way? Please explain. I have no idea what happened on your device. Can you reproduce it? If so, how?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kewlzter:
Well I asked for older version because other than the SDC issue, I've never had a problem with this app (2 years+).

Its failing haphazardly. Some calls it records (mostly outgoing) others it fails.

It fails by placing a place holder in the call logs, that says "incoming" (instead of number or name). The recording is under 5 sec long, and blank although the actual call was much longer.

Also, the call is broken. up into 3, when it was one call.

I changed the setting back to Root yesterday, and experienced the problems again today, so it seems to be both methods.

Because what should've been one call is 3 blank ones. I suspect the problem is with me switching to speakerphone. But the outgoing call that worked, I also switched to speakerphone. so idk, I'll troubleshoot tomorrow, and see if I can nail down when it fails.

edit:

Its OK, I found a way to go back to an older version.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fvisagie:
When you search this topic for "change volume" you get answers like https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66877092&postcount=5148 which indicate it's a side-effect of the Device setting.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LastQuestion:
I'd like to hear more about this. I'm thinking of getting an s10 on T-mobile. Can you confirm it's the system recorder that is functioning? Maybe even try out another app to confirm it's the system recorder. I think Automatic Call Recorder by appliqato has an option to use system recorder via 'use built-in recorder' option.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
I'm pretty sure it's not system recorder, thus it's not real 2-way call recording. But the phone itself has a good microphone, so in a quite room the other side can be heard well.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LastQuestion:
I see. It seemed unlikely, but I know ran into someone with an s10 claiming their call recording app worked fine no problem. So I've been wondering how and why while I try to decide between a g950f or a g973f.

Skvalex, what do you think about android 11 and call recording?

https://www.xda-developers.com/android-11-call-recording/

Do you think it'll make it into the full release and if so is it going to provide developers like yourself what they need for applications to always work?

The problem here is that in order to access in-call audio, the app has to become default dialer app. But in overall, it's a good news.

Hi,

I just bought skvalex.

I have OnePlus 7T model HD1903, running on stuck Android 10 version 10.0.8.HD65BA.

My device is not rooted.

However I have used the "root add-on" method.

I also did the "adb shell pm grant org.skvalex.cr.root android.permission.READ_LOGS"

After doing this, are you supposed to see a confirmation about permission granted, or just a blank line?

Because when I go to the app on the phone I get this message:

And if I press "OK" I get this:

However it seems to be recording both sides of conversation.

(the license is also installed correctly).

Have I done something wrong or is it supposed to look like this?

Thanks in advance.

You're entering wrong command: please read the message more carefully. The right command is:

I noticed if the Recording method is set to Standard API, th app works well but if I set it to Root then it doesn't work. Thanks for this great app, I will buy the full version now

As you have root, it's recommended to install Magisk Canary. But you should use Standard API method anyway as ROOT method is going to be removed.

Samsung Note 10 plus Sprint USA version NON rooted Android 9 any hope?

v 3.3.3 still working on my note 8 without root with android 8

Thanks !
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
No hopes. Only root or system recorder to record both sides on Android 9. But that device cannot be rooted and doesn't have built-in system recorder.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NYSprintGuy:
I accept your logic, but why this post (see attached)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
The post says about microphone recording. Which means the other side can be heard only if the microphone can capture sound coming out of the speaker. You won't hear the other side if you use bluetooth headset. If recording is made in noisy environment, you most probably won't be able to understand what the other side is speaking.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RoeyPol:
Thank you

Unfortunately, its didn't help.

I also found that if I change to Speaker (while in call), and change back, it's remain in speaker mode (but the icon change back as normal).

Looks like cube acr is working for Pixel 2 using their voice recognition setting. I then installed it on my Pixel 2 XL my regular phone which has Call recorder installed (v3.3.5). Cube Acr recorded remote volume was decent. I do have a rugged case (unicorn beetle) on the phone.

I then played with call recorder setting seeing the thread about mono vs stereo

working

- voice uplink + downlink, mono,

- voice downlink, mono,

- voice uplink, mono

not work

- voice uplink + downlink, stereo, remote voice is scratchy

- voice processor mono, no remote voice at all

Hi,

Why does this notification pop up even when there is no call-activity:

Sometimes 2-3 times in a minute.

I even tried to disable notifications for the app. But I read "Enable notification in Settings > Interface & Appearance. Android considers apps with no notification as not important, therefore Call Recorder may be killed." So I enabled it again.

I have OnePlus 7T model HD1903, running on stuck Android 10 version 10.0.8.HD65BA.

My device is not rooted.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] TwinAdk:
Hi there

I am coming from a different call recording solution, and I'd like this application to encrypt my existing recordings - how can I do that? I tried making the app see the existing recordings on my device, but not even that seems possible, even if I match up the naming syntax, folders, etc...? Does this app keep an internal database of which recordings are its own?

Kind Regards

TwinAdk
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
What's naming syntax other app uses? Can you post few examples?

In general, it's possible through System Recorder method:

1. Set method to System Recorder

2. Set System Recorder's folder to the other app's folder

3. Click "Import recording" - read the message

Then switch back to Standard API method.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
1. There's no difference if you set 44.1-48kHz and recording format set to mp3 or you record in WAV and then convert to MP3. The same code is used. But make sure you use Standard API. ROOT method may differ, but it's going to be removed soon anyway.

2. There's no point in using voice recording on most phones. The system usually provides only 8-16kHz for in-call audio. Then it upsamples if an app requires higher rate from the system. So it just unnecessarily wastes resources. But if the app records from the microphone (if it's unrooted Android 9/10), then yes. Higher rates may provide a little bit better quality.

3. Also, I don't think that mp3 is a good format for voice recording. I prefer OPUS or FLAC.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
This notification should be shown always when there's no calls if it's enabled in Interface and Appearance.

You may disable it if you wish, but make sure you've allowed the app to run in background: https://dontkillmyapp.com
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LastQuestion:
It could be something specific to my S5. I found I couldn't alter the kHz unless I set the format to .wav. And setting to OPUS/MP3 made it sound as if the audio was encoded with low-bitrate/kHz. For some reason, selecting .wav allowed me to change it from 8kHZ to higher settings. I selected 48kHz. Thereafter, the .wav file sounded good, and converting it to mp3 it also sounded fine.

I also don't like mp3. I haven't used OPUS much, but when I get the s8 that I just ordered I'll be giving everything a more thorough test. FLAC and WAV take up too much space for archival purposes. They're all I use when editing audio in an NLE though.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
It used to be like that. But the latest version 3.3.5 allows to set any sample rate for any format in Standard API method settings.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SomeGuy2008:
What might the difference be between Sprint and Verizon? Ii only ask because my verizon Note 10 Plus running Android 9 non rooted works great recording via voice up/down link (Standard API Method) using this app. Does one lock/block access to an api or something that the other doesn't?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SomeGuy2008:
Not until just now. DOH! And as you probably would expect its not recording the caller side. :( I rarely use bt for calls.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] TwinAdk:
I shorted the quote, but damn, thank you for sharing your process! I won't be going through this process, but it's good to know that it's possible. Skvalex's CallRecorder does support importing recordings made with the build in recorder, so I went that route.

This was exactly what I needed, that's such a great feature! It took care of 429 out of 580 calls on my phone, the rest of the calls wasn't present in my call log sadly. I understand that logic behind tieing the recorded calls to records in the phones call log, but I wish it would be possible to also import recordings not present in the call log, as it's limited to 500 entries.

Thank you both for your super valuable responses, they are much appreciated! I'm certainly sticking with this app, as it offers encryption.

On the note of encryption, if I keep the callrecorder.key-file, and the password for it, I would be able to unlock any .craf-file encrypted with that key, even if the recording is no longer present in the call log, right? It would even be possible to dump the files on a different phone, in the right folders, and supply the key-file too, and then listen to the calls, right? Basically I'm asking into the long term possibilities of listening to the stored, encrypted recordings?

Kind Regards

Only root or system recorder can help. You may change CSC code to unlock system recorder. It won't void warranty as root does.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Try the attached version. It will add "[OnePlus]" to a note if it were imported based on file name. But it may create duplicates as the app can't know for sure that recording imported based on a file name already exists in the app.
