[Q] 2.3.3 Call Recording on ANY rom? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

2.1 worked well, but:
Does any 2.3.3 original mod currently available, e.g. this:
WB-XPERIA TW Gingerbread Edition | Theme, Tweaks & Extra's | 30/7/2011 |
support two way call recording? As I understand, the matter is kernel related...

same here total recall worked flawlessly on 2.1 but now after i installed this pre-rooted 2.3.3 rom it doesnt record calls. only via dictaphone settings it helps:-( also my JUST SHAKE doesnt respond now when screen is turned off...pity

Tried different software. All the same.
It would help a lot if somebody would figure out a patch to allow call recording, without beeps etc., with call holding etc.
Also if single click GPS toggle would be possible. Would be great

sahil4u,
Are you using SANITY in Gingerbread 2.3.3? If yes, you can listen to loud the two ways?

yes i am using sanity and it works fine, even better than total recall plus many other customizations

The Call Recorder was functional in previous firmware (though not in mod roms) but not in 2.3.3. No two way call recording anymore!
It would be wonderful if this useful feature is added/modded by any of the geniuses on XDA.

i used "allcallrecorder" before and it still works now with no problems

Yes indeed.
Immy after 2.3.3 stok update, allcallrecorder did not work, made empty files.
Now, at least on Wolfs rom with root, or maybe because of some bugfix it works again, perfectly. I tried other software, they use mic and other party's voice is unclear and quiet.
So, problem solved

Call recording on ics?

Anyone get call recording to work in ics?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
I assume it needs kernel support to be done. And we won't have the ability to add it until HTC release the ICS kernel source for this phone which won't be until after the official update.
Bump!
I just (finally) got around to installing Scott's CleanROM 4.5 Pro edition. (It totally rocks Scott. Good work. Donation soon to come.)
Anyway, I've been looking around for a way to record phone calls. I want both my voice and the person on the other end. I don't want any of that speakerphone **** - I want a digitally captured stream of all the audio. It's legal in my state to do this.
Anyone with any ideas how to accomplish this?

This works just fine (100%) for incoming and outgoing sound, at the same time, on Newt's XXX 3 (super old version).
So it's a Sense 4 ROM. But this works, without issue, with all default settings. Test it on Sense 3.6? It's definitely ICS though here, and it works. As far as I know, my kernel is virtually the same?
Hi there,
I started playing with callrecorder yesterday.
The app's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441643
There's a trial version in the first link of that thread.
It works fine on my rezound (s-off, Nils' Business sense 3.6 v5.7)
One problem I'm seeing is that it *always* records calls. There's settings that are supposed to make that not happen but those settings are being ignored on my phone...
I am interested in a call recorder app. but all of them I have tested only record through the mic so the other side of the conversation can not be heard that well. Does anyone have a call recorder app that works without using the mic? If so what rom are you using? Thanks in advance.
An alternate method of recording calls is to use Google Voice for all your calls. It has a built-in system allowing for calls to be recorded on their servers and then accessible just like your voicemails are from the Google Voice app or the website.

I am aware of this but it does not do it automatically, right? and I believe there is a beep while you talk?

[Q] Call recording on the Xperia S

I recently made the switch from a samsung galaxy s II to the xperia S and one feature i miss the most is having call recording.
now i know that it is usually a hardware issue but i know for a fact that samsung and sony ericsson(now just sony) have never had issues with call recording and never locked it down.
When i got my phone, i went on an app hunt in the market for an app that would record both sides of a phonecall automatically, loud and clear. Unfortunately, i haven't been able to find one yet.
does anyone know of an app they have tried and found to work on the xperia s?
bump... i hope someone knows of such an app...
I haven't got my Xperia S yet but once tried "Record My Calls" with my X10 and I remember it worked pretty fine. You can try it or search for other app oout there.

You'll need 2way call recorder patched Kernel and root...!!! In short, use DoomKernel...!!!
GS2 can do that with Total Recall without root. How can Xperia S do so? I have to keep warranty. Thanks

Hi, i also cant find any app. Tried at least ten and none works? if someone have found one, link would be welcome!
I'm buy & using CallRecorder v1.2.7 all working properly.
My Xperia S is rooted ICS.
Try it!
I too had an app on my X10 that allowed for 2 way call recordings, I cant recall the name off the top of my head (perhaps it simply was Call Recorder). What I do recall was it had a very simple icon of a red dot on a black background; perhaps that may help someone.
Thanks.

Call Recording

Anyone know if the S4 can record both sides of a call? On my incredible 2 with the cyanogen mod kernel I could do it with CallRecorder from the play store? Can the stock kernel do it? Our is there a mod for it? Thanks

yes, but it will be very faint. If you have something to boost the volume, you can still hear it. I use speaker cause it's louder, but I was on the phone and someone had said they can talk if they was on speaker. I took them off then went back and could still here the conversation.

Same question. Verizon S4 sch-i545, rooted, stock ROM. I had to keep my s3 on ICS to keep call recording going, desperately seeking a solution for my s4.
Speakerphone recording is not really a viable option for me (certainly it's not desirable).
On my s3 (ICS) I used KillerMobile's paid Total Recall app, and it worked beautifully and effortlessly. On s4 (Jellybean) no combination of settings with Total Recall work with non-speakerphone recording. In fact methods A, B, C, and D don't work at all - and method D generates such large logfiles that I have to kill the app, and delete the log (it was 7gb at one point!).
Update: Total Recall is working with Cyanogenmod 10.1 (10.1-20130614-NIGHTLY-jfltevzw to be exact) on my rooted S4. No other custom ROMs that I tried worked, however.
Tried: Jelly Beans, Synergy, and Hyperdrive. Have *not* tried Paranoid Android yet. With Cyanogenmod working with it, I think I'll just leave it the hell alone for a bit..
Hi Lazarus, make sure you have the latest TR build installed, we fixed this Logfile issue recently (it's only an issue with Strategy D on S4's).
Have you tried the app with the release version of CM10.1 vs the nightly you reference?
Thanks for the feedback and don't hesitate to contact us directly.

Hi there Total Recall Users,
Before reverting to older ROMS try this first:
I got this working and this is my interpretation of the recording problem:
I also use CM 10.1's latest nightly and struggled to get it working. I noticed that Total Recorder does not prompt for Super User Access when the program i.e. wants to install Strategy D and fails.
I think this is a CM 10.1 error. I installed SuperSU (there's a free version on Gplay). Run this and select install from the settings menu. It will prompt you to reboot immediately after the program closes. Reboot and be QUICK to click Grant Access to SuperSU (else it will get blocked) and it replaces the CM 10.1 SU features.
When running Total Recall again, and selecting Strategy D for Galaxy III SuperSU pops up requesting SU status, grant it, and installs OK.
Recording operational....
I cannot confirm if this is a CM bug
Good luck.
Total Recorder only works with speaker phone on S4 running CleanRom 1.5.
Also, the directory picker function is buggy.

Call recording

Can anyone test call recording. I use call recorder but there are several others that have native (line in and out) recording. If someone could try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder I would appreciate it.
I know this thread is old but I use acr with no issues what so ever...calls are nice and clear...

Weird. I replied to this myself after I got the phone. Call recorder by @SkAlvex works perfectly. It even records while using Wi-Fi calling which my s6 could never do. Thanks for the reply though. I personally like call recorder better mainly because I am used to it and additionally because there is a link to recordings from within each contact.

BoldBeast recorder is another option that has almost always worked with every phone. They have great support and it's free. Root is not required (not attainable anyway, except on the EU version, for now).
I've tested it on the G5 and it works (though I haven't given bluetooth recording a try yet). Wi-fi calling recording does not work though.
Edit: Actually it works with Wi-Fi calling! Sweet!
If anyone is still reading this - don't upgrade to Android 7.
I did upgrade my LG-H860 (dual sim G5) and then of course discovered that call recording APIs are either removed or hidden - no software works!
Now looking for a way to downgrade back to Android 6.0.X....

Try ACR. It is working on my H850 (no root). If you can't make that app work with default settings, just choose mode "Android 7 all (a)"

I don't know why, but ACR does not work on my LG-H860 - the other side is very quiet. I'm using Boldbeast Call Recorder now. it's manual recording (unless u buy the license), but it works perfect on my phone even with this android 7.0. Thank God!

WhatsApp low recording Volume

I noticed that voice memos and audio's recorded with whatsapp have very low Volume, my friends barely hear me. But Calling volume is very good and normal.
Andy ideas how to fix this (with root)?

Same problem on my G5, with other apps the mic recording is perfect, so i think the problem is within WhatsApp, it will be fixed in the next version.

on updated stock roms it's already been fixed. when you use cm/lineage you need to install a kernel with sound control, for example crazyKernel

Hi! THanks for your answer.
I must say first, that I'm not using an LG G5 but a Samsung Relay phone, is just I had the same problem and I'm trying to find a solution to people having the same problem.
Having said that, I never had problems with stock, it's with cyanogenmod 11. Do you think I can also use crazykernel? Did that fix the voice notes problem in whatsapp for your phone? I only have problems with voice notes, everything else works as expected.
Best,

No you can't use crazykernel, they are device specific. Search for a Stock(if you are using Stock rom) kernel for your device with Sound Control
