I don't understand what is the prupose of those entries, they are 3 test calls i had made which autorecorded just fine, but i either moved them to trash at the after call notification pop up ... or deleted it from the list ... but the names of the contacts still is showing here in the left panel ... It is ugly and distracting, i don't see the need to show the recorded call list either ways on the left menu panel imagine if i had a 100 recorded calls and all of those calls showed up in this panel then the menu items(Tasks and Trash) at the bottom will get buried by the increasing call recordings that get saved.

for now please delete the ugly vestiges of the recordings that are no longer saved from this menu panel ... you will do a world of good to the UI/UX with that list not showing in this panel at all !!!

The only reason i give some points to this Call Recorder app is for the fact that it provides the user with after call notification where the user can decide if the call is worthy to be recorded or directly moved to trash ...

If only ... every call recorder(including the one's that are shipped default with the OEM) considered adding this after_call/after_record notification where the user can decide to either save that particular call or junk it ... that way, one will save a lot of time and effort in trying to trash unwanted recordings that get recorded as a matter of auto call recording enabled.

PS : I am a UI/UX(grahical-non_coding) designer if you need me to redesign a better UI drop in a DM.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Phantom Thief:
What happens if you use the same device but need to do more than 3 activations ? For example when switching ROMs?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Thanks! You can collapse it by clicking "By contact". But I guess the issue here is that the app shows contacts for the calls that are in the Trash? These contacts should disappear after calls get deleted from the trash.

You should be fine. Though, you may face issue "too many devices activated", but it will go away after some time (few days), but till the trial expires.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Not sure I understand what you have tried
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aiamuzz:
ok clearing from trash does remove those entries ... besides your decision(as its YOUR App) to keep appending the list in the left menu ... i don't see any logic of that list(a growing one at that) to be present in that menu ... as that still presents the problem of this growing list and burying the menu items under it ... vis'a'vis ...

'By Format'

'Settings'

'Help'

'Buy Full Version'

'Already Purchased'

I am on the 18 day trial version but my calls aren't getting recorded, i believe the service is getting killed for some reason ... are there any settings i can change that will restart the service in case it gets killed by the OS for whatever reason ? Is there a way i can make the service 'persistent' so there is no it can be killed ? Even a hack
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
It should be collapsed by default. So you'll see this long list only if you click "By contact", otherwise it should be hidden

What's you device? Have you locked the app in recents if your device supports it? https://dontkillmyapp.com/
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aiamuzz:
No I haven't locked it in recents ... will locking it ensure it never gets terminated ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Yes, it should help. I didn't notice complaints from users that the app still being killed after they locked it in recents

Hello Skvalex, your software has been always #1 to install whenever I get a new phone.

With that, my new phone S22 Ultra (908U) seems to be having issues recording calls. Is there an enhancement coming to the software to better support this phone? Currently the application records call through microphone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] zsunsun:
Oh hi, thanks for quick reply. Root is not avaliable yet on 908U. CSC change has been recommended but it's also not avaliable. I've been using rootless for many years now.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Then it's expected that just a microphone sound gets recorded https://skvalex.org/help/android-9-pie
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tk_xda:
Looking to get a current model 5G phone to use in USA with current Android. I hope to use SKVALEX recorder. Which models should I consider in order to get good recordings? Which models should I avoid? I am willing to root. I am willing to consider mid-range and high-end phones. Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] lukjod:
How should i set it up for recording both ways using root on s21 ultra on newest a12. Please share with me which options to choose to be able to record with skvalex same as native record call but without change of csc region?

Android 12 rooted with magisk 24.3 (zygote) with twrp and lsposed

Exynos version

I tried a few options but all unsucesfull, just want to record both sides in good quality as on asian csc but on Yours app
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
I don't know about 5G, but I usually recommend devices by OnePlus as they allow to unlock system recorder even without root

Have you tried Magisk module? https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/callrecorder-skvalex/releases
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] lukjod:
Thx it did the trick, both ways are recorded well
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Frankie1975:
@skvalex why after 10 phone calls does not register anymore?

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kherio:
Hi there. A quick question... it records all microphone and speaker audio? Or just the microphone?

Thx in advance
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] oldseeker:
Quoting my own posts seems a little rude, but I've waited patiently for eight months.

Making calls while driving has become needlessly dangerous. Even when we voice call, without taking our eyes eyes off the road, one still has to confirm each outgoing call by touching the phone screen.

💚 the Call Confirm feature to bits and cannot live without it, but on the other hand it's so cumbersome when on Bluetooth and/or Android Auto. It would be such a relief to have an exception for that scenario.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LeoKesler:
Hello @skvalex , I am using the registered version.

I have a Realme GT Neo 2, android 12 and GDPR rom. Not rooted.

I am unable to record call using your app. Any way to record calls ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dna1982:
I use Google Dialer in Oneplus 9 pro OOS 12 for call recording.

The recording files are saved in "/data/data/com.google.android.dialer/files/callrecording" directory.

Can this app work with that path? And How?

I already have Magisk Installed.

Please help.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mains75:
Hello. I'm desperately looking for a way to get phone calls recording during Android Auto connection.

I'm goiing to buy a Samsung s20 (snapdragon) - Korean version to have root access.

I hope to be able to record phone calls thanks to the appropriate magisk module.

Any of you have experience in this regard?

THX!!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Barbiox Dogg:
@skvalex does this app works on Android 12 rooted please?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] acwcanada:
Works flawlessly with A12, I have it even working with A13 Beta without any problem provided that you are rooted.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mains75:
Did you try with Android auto ? thx
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Barbiox Dogg:
ok thanks. How did you root Android 12 ??

My device is Xiaomi Mi A3 and I would like to install Android 12 custom rom?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Thanks for reminding! Please check the attached version. I have added option "Disable call confirm if BT connected" in Settings > Recording. Let me know if it works for you.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
If you have root, then the app can record phone calls from the phone line itself without the system recorder.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dna1982:
May I ask which option(CAF, ALSA or MSM) is suitable for my device (Oneplus 9 pro with Snapdragon 888 soc)?

I have looked into the help page, but found no answer there.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Use default Voice call uplink + downlink audio source. There should be a star before it if the app got root privileges
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] oldseeker:
Perfect! Thank you for making our driving so much safer.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Jhollis:
Hey, so I've used call recorder for a couple of years on a Moto G Power with no issues at all.

Recently I got a Moto G 5g and for some reason call recordings will sometimes sound very distorted. I've called my voicemail back to back and can not figure out why about 50% of my recordings are distorted even though it is the same number with the same volume.

Have you heard of this problem and do you possibly have a solution?

Edit: I'm using LineageOS if that helps.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Droidphilev:
Hello all,

Is there someone that can explain a bit what the setting "import after a call" does in system recorder settings? I do know what it does but i don't really understand why. Any help please?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] xNotta:
Does the magisk module provide any benefits over granting root?

I've been using the module for years and noticed it's no longer on the /get page of the website. I assume it's obsolete now?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Droidphilev:
No one has an idea please? I recorded some calls with and without this setting enabled and i see no difference. Trying to set up the app correctly on my new phone.

EDIT: it seems to be a setting for devices with Android 11 that use " Storage Access Framework" to import files from android/data
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Unfortunately, the problem lies somewhere deep in proprietary Qualcomm's files, so I don't know a way to fix it

If the app records both sides by just granting root permissions, then no magisk module needed
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MicroMod777:
How can I get this to work for Google Voice? Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mains75:
Please could someone try with Android Auto connection? I must know it before rooting my device...Thx in advance
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] me1bourne:
Hi y'all, can someone point out how to deal with no sound recording from other side when using BT headphones?

I have Samsung a52s 5g android 12 and purchased CR app.

I can hear only myself in the recording(probably recorded through BT mic), other person remains silent when using BT device, and I tried every option in "Audio source when BT connected".

Also it seems like there's no built in call recording function in this phone, and root is not an option because all of the Knox shenanigans.

Would really appreciate the solution! Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
I assume you are referring to Google Voice working over Wi-Fi or mobile data. In this case the call is not running through the normal voice call audio stream and recording it is almost impossible.

If you change the settings in Google Voice to use the mobile network for the call, then recording will work as normal.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
It's not going to work without root.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ze7zez:
(cut)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
I record calls using Google Voice all the time. As long as you are using the "use carrier only" option it will be fine.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ze7zez:
Since I realized that I was describing Google Phone and not about Google Voice, which is not available in my country, I cut the content of the post.

You managed to click "Replay" at the same moment and kept the content of my post.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] antonello66:
salve, devo eseguire il root per usare la registrazione? grazie.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
It will work without root but not perfectly. The voice of the other person will not always be audible. Calls via Bluetooth will not record the other side.

Funzionerà senza root ma non perfettamente. La voce dell'altra persona non sarà sempre udibile. Le chiamate tramite Bluetooth non registreranno l'altro lato.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] antonello66:
Infatti funziona male....grazie.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mains75:
Finally I rooted my s20 snapdragon version.

I can confirm that CALL RECORDING IS WORKING FINE DURING ANDROID AUTO CONNECTION!!! 👍 🎉(Magisk module installed)

any tip for getting this to work on a unihertz jelly 2 MediaTek Helio P60 MT6771?

Seems ive tried every setting and no luck.

Seems it worked with my new edge 30 pro.

also on my client are on skvalex website it says its not purchased..luckily i found my unlock apk on a backup. seems the website reset me, bought it in 2015
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
It works on my Unihertz Jelly 2 rooted with Magisk. Unrooted is harder.

tl;dr - I can't force the app to run at startup on xiaomi phone

Recently I switched from Mi 9 Lite to Redmi 11 Pro 5G; I've configured everything as usual but I saw that the call recorder app doesn't start automatically. If I run it manually, it stays in the background and records the calls but nothing that I did improved that situation.

I've reinstalled/reflashed Magisk (23), reinstalled/reflashed 25 (tried both normal and zygisk), reinstalled the app itself, removed it from Magisk entirely and installed it as normal app, as system app, added every permission imaginable to anything related to the app (main app/addon/license). The only thing with "autostart" button is the "license" apk, not the main one (no idea if it's related, but reinstalling the app didn't change that).

At the moment I'm out of ideas what the heck is happening here and how can I make it start by itself at boot. I've even installed the debug version of Magisk, but the logs are as vague as they were before.

One thing I noticed is that other mods have entries like "something: exec [service.sh]" but the call recorder app doesn't.

Any ideas how I can go deeper the rabbit hole to diagnose that?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Puff:
I did something similar with aProfiles, so I know how to get around that, but I'm wondering what might've happened that this specific app doesn't start in the background while others do and how to fix that?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
spart0n's suggestion will work

That said I know many Chinese OEM 's add task killer / battery saver functions that affect apps. Have you hunted around the stock ROM settings for something like this? Posting in your phone's forum might help.

It's nothing specific to Magisk or skvalex's app. The solution is in your phone somewhere.

Good luck!

What are the current recommended phones for Call Recorder?

I don't care about anything but a good Call Recorder experience. Budget $500-600 (more if necessary), preferably something released 2022. It is gonna replace my Oneplus 6T. I would very much prefer a solution that doesn't require root. 5 years ago buying a phone with Mediatek chipset allowed me to use Call Recorder without root. Is that still the case?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] l-g:
There should be a Wiki where people can list phones they tried and the result. This thread is just too extensive!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Puff:
As mentioned already, I did something similar with another app.

Regarding the vendor-specific power-saving features - that's not quite how I personally think this works. If enabled, it'll kill the app that's running but it won't prohibit it from starting up automatically. That's how it works for every other app that I want to start. MIUI can still be a pain in the butt but since 12 or 12.5 once it's set up in a certain way, it'll work/allow the apps to work as intended.

Of course in this case I have set everything in the same way as I did for other important apps that mustn't be killed - and the app is indeed not killed but doesn't start automatically either. In comparison to e.g. WhatsApp the main app for CR doesn't have the "autostart" switch. My lazy guess would be that if Magisk doesn't start it somehow in the background (and logs would suggest that), system won't do it either because there's no switch for that.

I'm far from blaming CR or Magisk or any other non-standard thing here, it may be as well the system's fault. I just want to get to the bottom of it and maybe suggest/create a fix if possible.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] l-g:
WTF! I created a Call Recorder wiki on Fandom and begun creating a table with tested phones. It is ugly and very basic so feel free to improve it as well as add more information.

Could you please help me to know what is CAF and MSM? I've heard them in some topics related to android call recording but I couldn't understand what is CAF and MSM.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tetriusno1:
In the past, I asked questions about the call Recorder recording.

This time, we replace the smartphone and extract additional logs and send them together.

When the Galaxy Note 9 Android 8.1 was heard, the sound was big and clear, but when I updated to Android 10, the surrounding noise was recorded and the opponent's voice was very small.

Galaxy Note 9 = Andorid 10

Galaxy Note 20 = Android 11

(Test process)

1) When I record a phone call in a loud place, the surrounding noise is recorded and the opponent's voice is recorded very small

2) When the other party recording a phone call in a loud place, it will be recorded greatly on my phone (the recording is not better than when used in the old Android 8.1)

Um .. I think I have to remove the noise from the microphone at the top of the phone, but this part is not right, so I think there's a problem with the other voice recording ...?

I extracted the log file from the Galaxy Note 9 / Galaxy Note 20 and sends it to the attachment.

Thank you ^^
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
This is because the newer Android versions do not allow recording calls for security reasons. The only workaround is to turn on the microphone during the call. This is why it picks up a lot of noise.

Try changing the recording mode to stereo and adjusting one side lower. That may help.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tetriusno1:
Thank you for the reply ^^

I already knew.

But I asked ( SKVALEX ) that I could find a way to get rid of the noise part when developing apps ^^ ;;

If it is difficult, set ▶ recording ▶ recording method ▶ System Recorder selection and use

(Show Confirmation Dialog Before Calling)

(ASK What to Do After a Call)

Does the option work normal?

If this option works normal, I will use CSC to change to India or China!

@skvalex

I have root access now on my Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro device NON-TWRP.

But how can I give this phonecallrecorder-app "AutoStart" option?

Because this setting is not available in the settings. So How can I enable this app to AutoStart?

It seems that every Rooted-App is this setting not available..

Help me to fix this, Or does somebody else fix this on a Xiaomi device?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aygul12345:
I have this same issue!

The app is not listed in the "AutoSart".

How did you fixed this?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aygul12345:
Exactly! I want to have this fixed or have a solution for this!

It seems to be that every Rooted app or through Magisk is NOT listed in the new MIUI Android 12 or 12.5 in "AutoStart" Why is that?

How did you fixed?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
I guess you have magisk module installed - uninstall it, then the option should be available
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Yes, these options work fine with system recorder method too
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aygul12345:
That's correct. I have installed the github release into my Magisk installer. Zip

Release 2.1.1 (3.5.0) · Magisk-Modules-Repo/callrecorder-skvalex

callrecorder-skvalex. Contribute to Magisk-Modules-Repo/callrecorder-skvalex development by creating an account on GitHub.

Yes! Correct!!!! I delete the module without disabling the module and now the phone app appears in the Autostart!

Please update this in your github page. I'm gonna record a YouTube clip of this and putting it here.

Thanks buddy, can I make a donation?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aygul12345:
If I delete the module would the app or services still work then? Or what is the correct order to install?

Could you explain it more detailed as a Developer?

Dear friend,

is there any way to enable call recorder in Google pixel 6 no rooted?

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] OzBoy1:
Will this work with Android 13?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] acwcanada:
I have the Google Pixel 6 Pro and now on Official A13 rooted, it still working flawlessly.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fmirizzi:
Is there any solution for no root?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] acwcanada:
Since your asking for Android 13 and Google Pixel phones are the only brand now has A13 released to their phones, so I assume you are talking whether it would work with Pixel phones. My understanding is that since Android 9, without root, you are never going to get phone recording working properly no matter which app you use.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Recording from the microphone should work if you enable accessibility service. To do that you may need to allow restricted settings in System Settings > Applications > Call Recorder > three dots menu.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
@skvalex is there any way to backup or cloud save the recordings with the notes that are added in app?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] skvalex:
Notes as well as other metadata (phone number, contact name, is it starred) are written inside recording files, so just back up the files
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] harryspar:
Ok amazing! So if I install to another device and link the same cloud storage do I then have access to all those files?

Or do I have to restore them in a different way?
