[Q] Call Recorder Help Please - Motorola Droid RAZR

I am running a Droid Razr Maxx CDMA (XT912).
I have Jellybean 4.2.2.
I have Cyanogenmod 10.1 installed as my custom ROM.
I installed BusyBox first, then Alsa Mixer. I want to use Call Recorder by skvalex. I can't find the free version on the PlayStore.
I am not a fan of downloading apps from anywhere else but there.
Can anyone tell me if these two programs that I installed will allow me to use the Call Recorder app
without any problems before I spend the money to purchase this app?
I know I can always get a refund but I figured that I would come here first to ask.
Any help would greatly be appreciated and I will click the thanks button for anyone who replies to this post.

I installed the call recorder app by skvalex.
It only records for the first four seconds and then stops.
There is no recorded file saved.
Any suggestions?

same problem here.... in my xt910
it records ZERO seconds
using 4.1.2 Jellybean
982.124.14.xt910.retail.en.eu
***please help***

same here with JB 4.2.2 XT910
It used to work for me with ICS 4.0.4 and apparently now it shows a red icon on the status bar instead of orange one.
And the message is something like error recording failed.
I contacted the developer on his email, he is a nice guy, I sent him the logs, may be he'll find something.

[Q] Two-way call recording on Doird RAZR

Hi All!
Could somebody help me please to find out if TIHIS (or any other) call recorder app works on Droid RAZR?
I'm planning to buy this device but first I have to know if two way call recording is possible.
If the application linked above is not working please recommend another
Thank you all for your help!
Wish I could help you out but don't want to invest in an app I don't really need to test it out.

Sorry Oaklands, it is my fault, that I didn't link skvalex's thread, because as far as I know, there is a TRIAL VERSION of it, so you could try it for me.
Thanks a lot!!!
I just tried it and it did not work for me. When I changed from the kernel version to the other setting it would force close. Super user came up ok but nothing was saved as recorded when i went back into the program.

That means I have to wait till there will be a kernel patch for this issue.
I've attached build with Motorola RAZR support, I don't own this phone, so please check it.
Select device in the preferences and install ALSA. The phone must be rooted.
Also, this build may work on:
- Motorola RAZR
- Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100G
- Motorola DROID 3
- Motorola DROID 4
- Motorola DROID BIONIC
- Motorola Milestone 3
- Motorola ATRIX 2
Device in preferences must be Motorola RAZR for all these phones.
P.S. If trial period is ended - remove this version and install latest from here.
Thanks a lot!
I'm not able to test it, because I don't have this phone. I was only wanted to know, if it would work on it if I buy one.
But I hope, you'll get feedbacks from users who have it.
Just had my friend try it on his ics .84 razrmaxx and so far it seems to work well
Tested on my RAZR xt912 with the first ICS leak from April, and out works fine on the alsa setting.

What I must do to make this work? I got rooted XT910, Android 2.3.6
I got ALSA and Call Recorder installed, but it's not saving audio files from my calls.
Which option i must choose in ALSA?
are both sides of the conversation being recorded?

hi everyone -- just about to order a razr maxx and wanted to know if call recorder by skvalex along with alsa are able to record both sides of a conversation.
there is some confusion with people stating that it only records your voice and not the other end of the conversation.
can someone please confirm what the truth is? and is it truly recording with appropriate clarity and volume (loudness)?
also, does it record appropriately over bluetooth headset as well?
not working on droid razr
i installed and tried it, but it didn't record anything. i also installed alsa, but it just gives me a long list of settings that i don't understand. which settings should i choose ?
I believe busybox needs to be installed under the xbin location for this to work as alsamixer is dependent upon that.

Have you found an answer for this? I am in the same boat, with a Razr MAXX, CallRecorder and AlsaMixer, not sure which to try. Does anyone have CallRecorder working to record both sides of the conversation on a Razr MAXX? I have a legal reason to do so - recorded calls for work, for quality and training purposes, and the employees have signed releases.
What are the proper known working settings for a Droid Razr/Maxx? I have been trying to get it working with no success. I live in a one party consent state and I do have a valid need to make recordings of some of my calls. I would like to know what the settings are so I can do this. I am currently running ICS. THe app appears to install just fine. The service comes up BUT it doesn't record.
From what I've been reading and the experience I've had with trying various solutions on my Razr MAXX, the hardware itself does not support recording the other party. Someone in the reviews on CallRecorder by skvalex said it works on his Razr (not sure if it's the MAXX), but I couldn't get it to work. I'm eager for answers about this! :good:

The MAXX and the Razr are functionally similar in hardware minus the battery apparently so what works on one should work on the other no problem. I have been looking for anyone who got this working on ICS or any rom for that matter on the razr or maxx. I used the Bionic as the template profile but I dont think that is working either.

I'll take a look at that. In fact we have a China stock rom's where call recording works, I hope that functionality is available in other kernel's too (EMEA for example)

I think your friend merely confirmed that it installed. I installed alsa and call recorder on my ics rooted razr maxx. The recorder runs and creates files, but there's no sound. I do have it set to use alsa and have tried changing numerous alsa settings. I think this comes back to the need for a kernel that enables call recording.

Call recording on ics?

Anyone get call recording to work in ics?

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?
Call recorder but its not free its by valex or something like that

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

There are many "call recorder"... Which developer's you are using?
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.

Try that app, it works fine on my Acro S (which should be the same)
But I do remember that an older version on my Nexus used a lot of battery. Then again, everything on the Nexus did

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.

[Q] Vine/Snapchat and 4.4.4

I've tried searching the forums and I can't seem to find a definitive answer.
Are there any 4.4.4 ROMS (any base CM/AOSP/AOKP etc.) that Vine and Snapchat work on? I'm fed up with the Samsung stock but don't want to lose functionality by switching...
I'll take that as a no then.

@gordon/all Same prob Here. Do u know a version which runs with snapchat?
The error code tells (translated),error sending failure... Tap again...
THX im running the nightly frok 2014.06.26
Some people seem to say if you set the quality on Snapchat to lower you get more recording time. But Vine seems to just bring up an error message saying "your device is not supported" or something.

I believe they still have the problem. I decided to end up using a stock Google Play Edition ROM. of course this dosent have any customisations but if you really want to customise it you can use Xposed Framework (+ GravityBox) etc.
