The app doesn't have functionality to download files from cloud yet. So download files manually and put them to Call Recorder's folder, then re-select folder in CallRecorder's settings > folders and files to trigger full rescan.

Dear @skvalex, dear everyone,

I've been using this program for a long time, but unfortunately I can't get it to record a conversation with a bluetooth headset. It only records noises. Is there a way to record these conversations, or is there a solution for this in the future?

I use HUAWEI P30 pro EMUI 12.0.0, Android 10 (not rooted) with HUAWEI FreeBuds 3.

Thanks

If you are trying to record over Bluetooth you must have root
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DaOldMan:
Not really. Samsung internal recorder for instance records from the line and from Bluetooth. So all you need is to setup Skvalex excellent app to use the system recorder. No root needed of course. So it depends on the device. He needs to check his system recorder.

Cheers !
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ze7zez:
In the case of Samsung, it can also determine the CSC region.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DaOldMan:
That's true but all I wanted is to explain that on some devices root is not needed in order to record from Bluetooth. So saying that you need root in order to record calls on Bluetooth is wrong, at least on Samsung devices that support call recording (via correct csc of course). My guess is there are more devices that can record calls from Bluetooth without root.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spin671:
Does this record voip calls? Like whatsapp
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nogods:
I've been using the paid version for 6 or more years now on rooted phones. I appreciate the app greatly. Is there a link for making contributions to the developer - having paid just a few times (I forgot to transfer the license a few times) for 6 or more years seems unjust to me. I don't see a "make contribution" link in the app itself.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
I also think @skvalex has provided a solid service.

Sometimes devs do not have a support link because people send $5 and then expect personal 24/7 help on demand and it's just not worth it.

In other news - anyone here on Android 13 with Magisk? Any issues or still rocking?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nogods:
I uninstalled magisk, took the ota for 13, then re-installed magisk for a pixel 5 - no issues so far. I'm now contemplating rooting a pixel 6a on 13 with magisk but I thought I read something about having to duplicate a file on both the a and b portions first. I'm trying to find that to follow up on my questions

Hi @skvalex , is this the place to post issues/ bugs/ cries for help? If not, please point me in the right direction, thx.

If it is, then I'm unable to record my side of any conversations. Set up:

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S7 SMG930FD

Android/linux: 10, this version: /e/OS for Samsung herolte Galaxy S7

Call Recorder v3.5.0 installed from: Download

I've phone rooted with Magisk and allowed Call Recorder in the dialogue

I've been few the help sections, but it's not getting me anywhere.

Any pointers you have would be great.

You may try to change mode to Stereo, if it won't help - try to change Audio source to [ROOT] CAF
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MorganXYZ:
Hmm, neither of those adjustments worked - a side note, I'm unsure that I'm hearing my voice repeated through the earpiece.

(It may be that when I selected [ROOT] CAF then I didn't hear dial tone, call progression etc.)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
I have no other ideas, except recommending you to try other firmwares. I used to have this device several years ago and I remember that both sides were recorded on a stock rooted ROM
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MorganXYZ:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tk_xda:
Started your free trial today on One Plus 9 Pro LE2125 stock "Global" firmware C.63 (current Android 12 version). Device is rooted. I got a few excellent recordings, then it suddenly and randomly completely failed to record a particular outgoing call, and then resumed recording later calls.

Why the unreliability? I am using these recording settings:

Recording Method: Standard API

Audio Source: Voice call uplink+downlink

Recording format: MP3

Recording Mode: Auto (with NO exclusions based on contacts)

I have a root file explorer. Is there a log file somewhere I can check?

Also, the options to display in-call control buttons are turned on, but I see no controls in my phone app while talking on the phone, so those are not working too.

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tk_xda:
A while back, you said the following

You should check out forums if Dialer by OnePlus can be installed instead of Google Dialer
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tk_xda:
I had not, so I changed this. Is there a log file that shows the start and stop times for the app as well as the times that it detects a call? If this happens again, I would like to look for a log file.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
No, there's no such log. But locking the app in recents, disabling battery optimization and allowing auto-launch should fix the issue on your phone

As of one day ago (September 11 2022) When I open the app, only one call appears. My other hundreds of calls are not shown.

I am running Call Recorder 3.4.9 (play store, paid version) under Android vesion 10 [unrooted] on a Moto G Power (2020)

I had moved the calls to my SD card many months ago into /storage/3333-3374/voix. It appears the the mp3 files are still there.

I had previously tried to see if there was a way of saving the call log database with my calls and notes, but had no luck. I was worried that this might happen someday...

Is there a way of get the database of calls back?

thank you for any help
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cohosalmon:
PS it takes hours of cumulative effort to add notes to calls. It seems like there should be someway of backing up this information.

Can anyone suggest what may have happened?

This is the only thread I found regarding SKVALEX Call Recorder, but please tell me if I am posting in the wrong place

Thank you.

Hi and regards,

In few years I have installed Skvalex on Lenovo P2, Lineage OS 16 (9.0) and since working perfect, now it was a time to move on Lineage OS (18.1) A11.

My settings was:

Audio source: Root CAF

Format: MP3

Device: Qualcom ---> / my Chipset is Qualcomm MSM8953 Snapdragon 625

Yes have Magisk 25.2 working perfect with module Skvalex 2.1.1

On Android 11

Now I can't save anything just silence in audio track. Tried everything on Audio source Input !!

Can you guide me or point it out were can be a problem with configuration on A11 Lineage OS

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Brixster:
Like many people here I find myself in a love/hate relationship with the app through no fault of the developer :-)

The two problems I have are (1) a lot of white noise in recordings of perfectly quiet calls, and (2) the other side of the call is barely audible. Both are clearly caused by the fact that my stock S22 in unrooted, so the only choice is to record through the microphone or have the call on speakerphone.

I suppose no one has come up with another solution other than rooting the phone or changing the CSC and using the system recording function, and we shouldn't ever expect it either, right?

It's just ridiculous that Samsung has blocked US users from accessing that feature. What's kinda of funny, at least in the US, is that the legally of this is a no brainer, that devices which might be used in an illegal way pose no legal hazard to the manufacturer as long as it has some other legal function which it clearly does in many states, see the issue being litigated back in the 70's with the VCR recorder.

Anyway, my question is whether once I charge the CSC and enable system recording, does the app merely act as a file manager for the recordings and you lose all control of when and how a recording is activated, or does it still operate the activation and other features we love to use but simply hand off the actual recording part to the system?

And does anyone know whether the CSC of the S22 Ultra 908U1 can be changed?

And also this. SKVALEX writes in the help file about the issue of not hearing the other side of the call: "Setting recording mode to Stereo and try to find the best suitable volume control values for your device (E.g. Tx: 50%, Rx: 800% for Pixel 2)". I realize this is old advise but is there really some way to boost the incoming audio separately from the outgoing audio? I assume not since everything is coming in from the same microphone. Because that really would help fix the problem!

With all these genuine geniuses like SKVALEX it's a wonder nobody has figured out a hack to get around these issues, especially the Samsung block. You would think there's a way to get around it without resorting to end users messing with the system.

Someone earlier posted this and I wanted to know if that could possible help and why? Seems unrelated to the microphone issue.

"Non rooted phone calls in my experience are very quiet, if any sound at all from the other end. But this can sometimes be mitigated with "delay before start of recording"

I happen to have an awesome, if overkill idea to fix this problem, though. Basically have the app perform a voice analysis comparing the audio stream against a stored a sample of the owner's voice. Then it modulates the volume of the recording depending on whose voice it detects, keeping it loud for the non-owner and normal for the owner, ending up with a listenable audio recording on both sides. No clue how feasible that would be, but it would make the app an absolute market leader and most everybody would be willing to pay a lot for that feature!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Zdeslav:
OK,

I've uninstalled first, Skvalex module, in Magisk, then Skvalex APP

Rebooted

Installed Skvalex with default settings

Audio: source: Voice call uplink + downlink, MP#, ....

All before settings in Lineage OS 16.1 worked nice with ROOT CAF that was default in earlier versions like 3.4.x. Of course, this is totally different Android version...

Than it worked....maybe Module did some problems with audio branch in Android.

Take care if you installed ViPER4Android...maybe, I didnt uninstalled that one.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Brixster:
Alternatively, an easier method of dealing with the low volume issue would be post precessing each call by equalizing the volume of the entire recording, which is what I have to do when I have a critical call I need to save, using Sound Recorder for Mac. It's one simple process that modulates the highs and lows and results in a very good quality audio. Does SKVALEX have any interest in adding this as a premium feature to the app?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Try to click "rescan folder" in the left side menu > three dots. Metadata stored inside call recordings, so no database is needed
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
It looks like that there's some issues inside ROM that prevents the app from recording. I don't think there's I can do to fix it within the app
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
The app will import calls to the app's interface. So yes, it becomes a file manager for call recordings. The app itself has no control over system recorder.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Brixster:
I just like the app so much I would rather use it to record as well if there was some way to fix the low audio problem without rooting the phone because it's a company phone and they don't allow it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
That's not an easy feature to add. The app already increases sound in built-in audio player to the highest value that can be without distortion.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
That would be great if there was a way to record calls without root and system recorder. But it seems like there's no way.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Brixster:
I can confirm that using this sound recorder command on the recordings you make that it equalizes the sound very well without distortion.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Yes, I guess that was the case
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Zdeslav:
Yes, Ive made like an possibility a warning for Audio Plugins. Well for years have Viper4Android with Skvalex, never had an issue.

But you never know, better to uninstall Viper4A temporary than install Skvalex, if it works than you can play with Viper4A.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DaOldMan:
You unlocked the device then used custom LineageOS recovery. So now the device is rooted. All you need is to root the Rom. You can easely root it with Magisk apk sideloading or Lygisk - it's written in the instructions. Then you can try using call recorder with root permissions. Lets hope it will work better.

@skvalex

Hi mate,

So last version was working fine till now and today I updated to the latest version. Only issue is that after reboot, it doesn't start automatically and I don't have any notification for it in my status bar. I have to run it manually and then change recording off-on to have the notification again.

I have K20 Pro, ancient rom (custom Android 12 rom).

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Edit:

Ignore it please, looks like a one time issue. Started fine on next start.

This is a serious issue as people may delete their recorded calls on the phone as they believe those would have uploaded to the cloud.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kernelconf:
I've encountered very strange issue. I've installed 3.5.2 on fresh Google Pixel 4a/LineageOS 19 and was unable to upload recordings. While app creates necessary remote directories, the file upload itself fails with 'upload failed message'. However, if I reinstall the app, upload begins to work.

I tried factory reset and the issue repeats. Not sure, how reinstall helps though.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Fred@:
Hello Skvalex,

I have been using Call Recorder for a very long time on rooted and non-rooted phones, since my Galaxy Note 9 and my HTC U12+ which I left on Android 8 to have all the call recording qualities (2 licenses purchased) and be able to use banking or other apps that don't like root.

I recently got a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 256Gb, I installed Call Recorder 3.52 but the recordings were not as good as before (recording from the microphone…). I changed the csc without root and enable call recording, quality is back recording in API - Voice call up and down - WAV - 8000Hz - Left 100% Right 100% - Auto. I tested with the wired headset, bluetooth headset and direct telephone, everything works fine.

Files related to Android 12 system recorder are stored in SD card in "Recordings-Call". But with the phone's file explorer I can't find the "voice" folder on the SD card although I created it via the application! And I don't see it in internal storage either. I installed Mixplorer and I find the “voice” folder in the internal storage!!! I don't know if there is an explanation but it's strange. When I connect my phone to the PC I find the "voice" folder in internal storage and not on the SD card.

I would like to preserve internal storage capacity for other file types and store call recordings on my SD card. Is there a solution ?

Thank you

EDIT:

I answer myself after trying again, I didn't choose the right path for the "voice" folder. I took the SD card directly whereas in my case I had to choose "storage" then "8981-15F8" which corresponds to my SD card. Too long without fixing the app because it worked fine on my other phones.

CallRecorder remains the best call recording app, go on !

Sorry for the long post but it might help someone...

Otherwise I can delete it...! Tell me.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] :
Hi there,

In your FAQ about recording internet calls, u stated that it's not possible.

Yet on my Rooted Pixel 6 running A13 and latest version of you app, I'm seeing call recording notification. Today I had a whatsapp group video call, and saw the notification. After the call ended I saw a new entry called "incoming" and it recorded only the audio for the whole 30mins. I checked old records and saw it has been recording my incoming WhatsApp calls since Start of October.

Am I the only one who has this?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] l-g:
Add geolocation to the recording

Transcription using e.g., https://github.com/openai/whisper/ (Ooh, and please add it for existing recordings too! That would be awesome.)

Good morning.

Yesterday I bought the application for a family member and we have the following problem in your samsung galaxy s22 +

The recordings do well (something under the volume but acceptable) but the problem comes when sharing calls (by email, whatsapp, telegram ...) that are almost inaudible. Do you know how to solve the problem when sharing files?

Edit: Even if you access the file from the file explorer and play on the mobile with vlc for example or on a computer it is not heard almost, it is only audible through the callrecorder app player itself.

When you share a file you send a copy. i think therefore the problem could be related to the mobile phone or pc that receives the file. did you control audio settings?
