Recording volume is little low but its better than nothing.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpookyTunes:
This has been the Holly Grail for Android since the G1. If you root your phone and give SU permissions to the recording app, you will have better luck.

There is also an option in Google Voice which might be of interest:

Google Voice > Settings . Calls > Call options > "Enable Recording (4), Switch (*) and Conferencing options on inbound calls"
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
It's 9$ :(

It say to the other people of the call that you are recording the call each minute. So it's seriously not a professional solution.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pascanu:
This one works!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grinzone.incallrecorder

Athough it says N4 is not supported (can't record directly from phone line) the result is almost perfect.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
Some people are saying that it's like many other apps, it use the mic to register the voice of the speaker instead of using the real system internal speaker output stream.

I did some research and everywhere I see that the Nexus 4 doesn't allow the saving of the real system internal speaker output stream... only if you are rooted and have a kernel who allow 2 way audio.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pascanu:
This is what I'm saying, it uses the mic, but the result is incredible, you wouldn't know. Don't dismiss it until you try it.

P.S. I have nothing in common with the developer, not trying to advertise his app. I'm just another guy looking for an app that can record calls that has stumbled upon this, it's been tweeted by XDA: http://t.co/fbrxD1s47V
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
I understand your point.

But like a lot of people, I use a wired headset with microphone in my every day working life, so the mic can't without a doubt record what goes through the headset (even with a + gain level incredibly high).

Of course it's the case with my Nexus 4, but I admit that other device have the capability to allow phone line record instead of the mic record.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epdm2be:
Reading a lot of forums with regards to this topic.

It seems that only a handfull Android devices have full 2-way call recording (e.g. LG 4X HD), a few can record one side of the call (usually the caller) like e.g. SGSIII but the majority can't record a call.

So the only platform that is able to do full 2-way call recording is Symbian.

Guess I know what to do next...

I just tested this. Recorded both incoming and outgoing.

I'm using latest cm and faux kernel.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
You are joking right ? You just have to root the Android device and apply the kernel patch for 2-way recording (in face the patch is just a module that have to be enable when booting).

Can you please test https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grinzone.incallrecorder with your CM & Faux kernel N4 and let me know if it use the mic or 2nd line to record incoming voice ? (Just to be sure, maybe you're right and the kernel is patched, if so, the app you choose to record calls doesn't matter.

Okay thank you. So I doubt your Call Recorder app you said before use the proper record line, instead it use like the app I said, the mic line.

It just appear that with the correct level of gain, it seems really good when you play it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epdm2be:
"You just have to root the Android device and apply the kernel patch for 2-way recording (in face the patch is just a module that have to be enable when booting)."

You're kidding right? How do I explain to my 70 year old dad or mom that they have to "root" their devices (Xperia U and Galaxy mini II) and do a "kernel patch". It's like talking chinese to them. My Nokia symbian-phone records calls using the inbuild voicerecorder. No tricks needed. Just when in a call go to apps, start the app and press record. 3rd party apps allow automatic recording so you don't need to do anything.

It also works when used with a bluetooth headset and carkit. While e.g. Incall Recorder doesn't work over BT at all.

I should put a call on this site so ppl can actuall hear the quality of both the caller and myself.

Besides if it's so easy why on do mr.Xoib and mr.silverramsrt have trouble with it?

Fact is I am not interested in ANY Android device that hasn't got proper 2-way call recording. Unfortunately the devices which have the least trouble with it, are the least interesting devices (ZTE Blade). The only more-or-less high-end device that I know that support 2-way incall-recording is the LG 4X HD but that device is the least interesting of the Tegra3 smartphones (bad speaker, louzy camera etc...).

I had hoped that the LG optimus G would be an option as it's a bit better than the 4X HD but since it wasn't avaialable in Europe (and unlike the 4x HD doesn;t do call-recording out-of-the-box).... :(

Those new smartphones really are a joke. None of todays interesting devices (iPhone 5, Lumia 920, Nexus 4/Optimus G, HTC One, Xperia Z/ZL) can do this trivial thing that a bloody 2005 featurephone could. Damn!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
I am a bit surprised that both-side call recording isn't some standard feature that comes with phones these days. Never actually used it myself, but had a few situations where it would've been nice.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
Remember that I'm just trying to find some solutions / alternatives to make the 2-way call recording working. And for the moment that's the only solution (for the Nexus 4 as I know).

I agree, it's a shame.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0litaire:
Think it's mainly due to legal issues when it comes to recording calls. Different rules in different countries.

Anyhoo

What Nexus 4 kernels currently have the patch / module installed?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
Yes it is, but we have to have the choice ! So that doesn't make sens not to have the choice on our own devices !

I'm currently testing CyanogenMod 10.1 (it's a ROM but it come with their own kernel).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0litaire:
This is not about your choice. But the fact that if Android OS 'could' record calls OOTB then manufacturers would see their phone's banned or restricted in some markets, Since they may have laws about who could own devices that can record phone calls without a licence.

Google not implementing call recording OOTB means it can promote the Phone OS to a wider market.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
Agreed. But the facts are :

- It is not available in the Nexus 4 stock kernel

- It is available in the official Android API.

So why they don't give an official patch for users who live in a country where it is allowed...

Instead, we have to use CM or another kernel with the non official patch embedded...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLADESMAN1889:
Yeah I've seen this going on several times. I think it has to do with trying to earn brownie points. If a Dev states from the off that he will never implement this [or that] then of course that is that.

But some Devs may have very strong feelings about it [as is anyone's right] & then some weeks later an innocent poster asks a totally reasonable question & gets 'the treatment' ironically NOT from the Dev but from a 'follower' who feels the need to be Rude, Aggressive, self-righteous & a call recording policeman all in one - all in the hope of getting 'thanked' by their fave dev. :D

As stated the biggest issue is a legal one. Take the US where the company is based. It is legal in some states and not in others.

So they say if you want it. Then build a kernel and add it. Simple.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xoib:
Yes that's so true. I have seen that kind of comportment the past months. Especially on this dev board.

Not that simple I'm afraid. The "they" that you use if a big minority among the developers.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xstrake:
2 way call recording appears to work! need more testers

Folks I have a rooted nexus 4 running stock ROM and kernel.

The call recording app that I use is

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=polis.app.callrecorder

Now I know this app has been suggested several times before and for the most part it works only when you activate speaker phone. When not on speaker phone it only records our side of the conversation.

While plugged in to the wall charger however, it seems to record both sides and with high quality, like straight off the phone line, not via microphone. I know it appears strange but it works every time for me. Please test it out here and post your results..

If this indeed works for all, perhaps a kind Dev can write an app to trick the phone to charging state every time a call is made.

Additional notes- I had previously installed alsa mixer, but later uninstalled since I couldn't figure it out. Don't know if this has anything to do with this behavior.

Doesn't work. Test with headset/earpiece!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLADESMAN1889:
So I managed to get In call recorder working. For some reason selecting 'phone line' doesn't work & you have to select microphone as though your going to use hands free - once selected the call DOESN'T use the speaker but records the call even though speaker phone/hands free is selected.

Hi guys, I previously had an EVO LTE, and an Epic 4GT when I was Sprint but picked this device up when I changed carriers several weeks ago and haven't had the chance to root it yet, so my SGIII is 100% stock.

After downloading and installing the OTA update two days ago, two factory resets, and wiping my SD card multiple times the device is still noticeably more sluggish than it was when it was running 4.0.4. I was under the impression that Jelly Bean would speed up the device, not bog it down, is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

I've noticed this before, and I'm puzzled - how come everyone here has so much of their battery consumed by "android system"?

On my S3, "Cell standby" is always by far the biggest drain - mine is currently showing 54% on Cell Standby and the next by rank are Screen at 18% and Andriod System at 13%.

Ok, it does vary a bit with the pattern of usage, but I've never seen battery stats on my phone with Cell Standby at less than 50%. I use the phone a fair amount and usually get close to 2 days on a charge.

Let's concentrate all conversation about 'how to get my Lumia 920 unlocked' to help everyone! :)

Rogers Lumia 920:

Get locked Lumia in any store, and pay $50 in the store to unlock it.

It took me 2 hours, and the store employee had to talk with 3 different people on the Roger's customer service.

I've paid full price and got a prepaid sim card. To unlock, I had to put $50 in the simcard to able the customer service get it to use on the "unlock fee".

I've try unlock.canadagsm.ca and http://cellunlocker.net/. No success. Only in Rogers store.

[UPDATE] CanadaGSM sent me an email saying that they started to unlock Lumia 920 from Rogers

Lumia 920 bought from Toronto's Microsoft store

Is locked but http://cellunlocker.net/ has the codes to unlock (We read some users using that, but some fail).
