[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] WalkinEvolution:
Ordered a P10 from Amazon with a specific "VTR-L29" plastered all over the title and in the description. Received the phone 5 days later with prime shipping, went to boot it up and the dreaded "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly." Immediately I became skeptical. I looked on the back of the phone and checked the IMEI online. Sure enough it was an VTR-AL00. At this point I figured I might as well look at the phone while I'm at it. Phone booted up and got to the initial setup screen congratulating me for using a VTR-L29. I went into the settings where it also stated it was a L29. Below that it has both IMEIs listed and both being AL00.

I want to say it's no big deal but to be honest it really pisses me off. Is this a custom global rom on a chinese version of the phone? When looking at the differences the Chinese version appears to have less accessible frequency bands. What would you do if you were me?

Thanks.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] irony_delerium:
It's entirely possible that the band support is different, but for the most part, all I'm particularly aware of as far as differences go is which build of EMUI it's running. One thing that I've seen pretty commonly with devices from China is that if they're being exported someone will figure out how to load a global ROM on it so that things like Google Play can be loaded. (Almost all of the sellers on sites like AliExpress do this, and it's quite likely that some on Amazon do as well.)

Also - if it is actually an AL00 model, unless they went so far as to change the actual case, the model is printed pretty clearly on the back; the L29 would also have additional markings on the back.

Regardless, unless the place you got it didn't do the rebranding process correctly, as far as I've ever been able to tell it doesn't make too much difference. (I've rebranded a few Mate 9s to AL00, actually, so I could flash the EMUI 9 betas; advantage to having a Chinese region is FRP lock won't come biting you later.)

If I were you, I'd go take a double check on the page you found it on - most Chinese sellers that I've seen post that it's originally Chinese stock that they've changed the software on to a global version; beyond that, any hardware differences are likely to be cosmetic. (The title says L29, the description says "it was originally AL00 or DL00, but we rebranded it for worldwide use" or something similar. They'll do that with AL00 models primarily, as the DL00 models have a China Mobile logo on the back.)

Any advice?

[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] HellStorm666:
I just got the phone Tuesday and can't find a way to enable call recording.

Anyone knows how I can enable this?

With my Oneplus 6t there was an app to enable it.

Xiaomi had it enabled by default.
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] tassadaru:
Are you using an app for call recording or trying the android call recording?

AFAIK Google made Android hinders call recording from Android 8 or 9 upwards, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] HellStorm666:
On the Oneplus 6t I used the build-in call recording.

This could be unlocked with an app. No root or what so ever needed. Just ADB.

Really miss the call recording on the P30 Pro.

Tried any 3rd party app? Confirmed not working? Asking for a friend, he just ordered the phone.

Problem is huawei. On My Mate 10 pro with Android 9 it works, but bootloader unlocked and rooted phone is needed. And I use the original callrecorder files from Firmware.
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] dule2303:
But with root you change system files and thats why now you can use call recorder,without root call recorder in android 9 is disable,this is not glhuawei "problem" ,call recorder is disable for all phones with android 9 without root
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
Disabled vs not activated. It is a difference. The call recorder. Apk is included în firmware but not activated. Simply copy The file from on place to another place (need root acces) and it will be activated (on mate 10 pro android 9.) I will check The P30P firmware to see If it is included or not.

not on Android 9 !

google changed things on Android 9, all calls show as "unknown" on ACR. makes the app redundant.

CCR works on P30Pro

You can test it.

The App has a free version. Just check if it records.

Cube is using a different method than ACR.

At the moment I have no P30 or P30 Pro.... I've got a Galaxy S8 locked on Oreo to avoid the damages of Pie, and I'm looking for a device that works on call recording. Needed for my job.

Tried Xiaomi Mi 9 that works, but it has a poor quality on audio and Bluetooth...
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] Silv3rbull3t:
CCR works

Me too.

I hate google for closing call recording for 3rd App devs.

This is why ACR that I was using for years stoped working on my S9+.

Locky for Me Samsung added build in call recording on oneui.

After buying the P30 Pro ACR did not work.

After reading this thread I found CCR (Cube call recording) and I can say it works perfect on the P30 pro.

I see no reason for it not to work on the P30.

Hope things work out for all users looking for a call recording App.

Ok... this is valid for all devices... for Samsung too... but what about warranty?

And home banking apps?
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] JazonX:
Not sure about that...

Yes, By CSC Edit. Not Apk transfer.

Warranty Contract will be terminated due to unauthorized modifications.

However I'd pick the root call recording above battery drain and privacy concerns by third party app running always in background.

Automatic Call Recorder works. Find it here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder&hl=en_CA

The only dumb thing about it now, is since Android 8 (I think) it no longer gives any indication as to who's number is called for ID-ing the calls. All it says is Incoming or Outgoing Call. Pain in the ass really, so if you have an important call that you want saved, you have to rename it to ID it. Used to be a lot better when it would just access your call display to label the calls. I typically leave mine on all the time on my work phone, because I have so many calls, and I hate taking notes.
