Hi,
Is there a way to enable call recording on stock but rooted and locked bootloader on this awesome phone?
Please advise.
Install Xposed.
Then Xperia Dialer Mod module
Oh.. Thank u very much
I use the Call Recorder app (by skvalex).
Works so fine..
No root, mods are necessary. I am using ACR call recording app and all I can say that it is brilliant.
Coming from Samsung devices it is a great thing for me to be able to actually record the calls

So do those Third Party apps like one you mentioned records from Line? or does it use your speaker phone?

I am not really sure what you mean by from "line" or "speaker phone". All I can say is that the speakers voice quality is actually better than mine, from mic, during the call. It records in 3gp format and seriously, it is really good.
If you want I can send you some example conversation so that you can evaluate but the easiest thing you can do is download ACR and try for yourself, they have a free version with limited functionality and you can try for yourself.
Sure I will try that app. By Line I mean direct recording through phone line I mean some apps use the speaker phone to record calls which hampers the quality of the recording. Anyways, I will try this app!
do you know how to display caller city, state (just like iphone) on the stock calling UI?

Yes, I need this feature as well.
As far as I managed to understand, problem is the lack of ability for line recording, as opposed to microphone recording which is enabled. Obviously with microphone recording, the far side's volume is very week, so that's why you it doesn't work properly.

The problem with call recording is in kernel. Our kernel does not support 2 way recording (so both voices recording from line). It will record from headphones. No way to fix with any problem. Only way is to add 2-way call recording in kernel.

That's not entirely true. If you look at what I wrote in this app's thread to the dev, I managed to produce a scenario (involving the headphones) in which I managed to make it work.

It does in one very awkward scenario. Copying here what I wrote in the Boldbeast call recorder thread. Here's the scenario:
- Plugged headphones
- Made the call and started recording (Let's call it stage 1). At this point I couldn't hear the call sound in my headphones, but still in the phone (no such problem if I don't record)
- Turned speaker on (stage 2). Now I hear the call in the speaker of course
- Turned speaker off, at this point I could hear the call in my headphones (stage 3)
Now when playing back the recording, I could see that in stage 1 I could hear the far side low, but in stages 2 & 3 I could hear it fine.
Note that stage 3 is the interesting one. The speaker is off, I hear the sound in my headphones, and the far end is recorded fine.
I really can't put a finger on the reason to the problem. I'm just saying I reached a state where I could record a 2-way call, without having the speaker on at this stage.

Had problems in the past uploading videos, so will guide you step by step. Please try to keep up.
First of all make sure your device is properly rooted and that you uninstall all other call recording apps.
Now install BoldBeast call recorder.
After installation, go to the application setup, Call settings :
- Set call recording mode to 22
- Enable root options (took me a few times until it worked, but it should work)
- Fix Recording Issues - mark all options except for Auto switch speaker on
(On a side note - these settings were the only ones that somehow worked. You are welcome to try other ones)
Now after setting this up, you will see a record icon for any call you make. Clicking it will start recording the call (showing a blue paw icon in the status bar). You can then hear the recorded calls by selecting the phone icon in the app.
Now to scenario I described:
- Plug your earphones in
- Make a call
- Click the record button. At this point, you won't hear the audio in your earphones but still in the phone
- Turn the speaker on, then turn it off
- You will now hear the audio in your earphones
Now after you hangup, you will hear both sides of the call starting the point you turned the speaker on and off.
This is really awkward. I guess christi is right by saying that the problem is in the kernel/ROM (as it worked properly with stock JB & KK). In addition, this app's dev told me it should have worked for me (using another mode - 34), and that he couldn't help if it didn't. So, I guess that until the kernel/ROM is fixed, we won't have call recording working normally in this ROM.

Firstly, I got my device back. Secondly, I have never ever promised anything like that. I said that I will watch on it and see what can be done, so never promised a thing. This is not a priority for me since it's not my job or anything like this. I am making this for free and I have never charged anything so far. Who wants can donate, but again, I am not charging, so I am making this when I want/ have free time/ have the mood for it. If you still doubt it, or anyone does, I have the pm saved. Please don't say I promised when I didn't do such thing. Things like this drive me nuts. Have a nice day.
cool man.. i just said simply.. dont be serious. sorry if i anything did wrongly..
Sent from my p715 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I've been using a variety of automatic call recorders for years and recording calls have been indispensable for me.
I make and receive quite a lot of calls related to my job and I tend to forget details all the time, and so it's been great to just listen to the conversation again.
The quality of the recordings haven't been great, especially the voice of the other person but it has done the trick anyway.
I recently bought a Pocophone F1 and was pleasantly surprised that MIUI actually has a setting for turning on the native call recorder automatically so I wouldn't have to get an app to do it, but even better, the quality was *great*. Way better than any of the apps I've tried with any of the settings.
But today I flashed Lineage OS 16 because MIUI was bugging me for a bunch of reasons, but Lineage doesn't have such an option.
But not only that, no of the third party recorder apps I try work at all. I've now read that google has made it impossible for apps to record calls in Pie.
I can manually press the record button in the dialer app and that works fine, but the problem is that I have to manually activate it for each call and I know I'm not going to remember to do that, plus I don't even always have the possibility like when I'm driving or working with my hands and I answer using my headset.
Is there any way of making the native recorder activate automatically in Lineage OS like in MIUI or is there any other alternative?
Do I need to flash another rom if i need this?
Thanks in advance!
Hi guys,
I've been struggling for quite a while to find a working call recorder for Android 10 Lg G8x and I finally found one that works without you having to click your heels 3 times and do 7 summersaults... Just thought i would share it with the community:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fragileheart.callrecorder
All you need to do is change the audio source to Voice calls, and it records normal calls speaker calls and bluetooth
Wow... You made my day. I've been testing several Call Recorders with no success because I need recording for my work. If this works in a decent way you will have solve one of the problems I had with G8x.

We should share what we find. Here are a few apps that I consider must have for G8X:
Wide mode for LG https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode
Launch 2 apps, one on each screen: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.graymatterapps.duallaunchforlg or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.splitscreenlauncher
Overlay apps that really help if you are in Wide mode and can't reach:
- This one is the most used app on my phone, awesome assistive touch with very complex gesture controls if you want to go there. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ksxkq.floating . I use it with long press to move, press - menu, left - back, down - home, right - task manager, up - notifications, swipe up + hold - slide volume, swipe down + hold - slide brightness.
- Meteor Swipe https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.glovebox . This one is a side-bar, and has a nice open in window mode directly.
- Floating bar V40: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tools.lgv30.floatingbar . Much better than the built in functionality, and the only media controller if found that works with any media (Netflix, Youtube, etc)
- Bubble notification, best i've found : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.onedollar.bubblenotificationq
List My Apps: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.onyxbits.listmyapps
Launchers:
- Square home https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ss.squarehome2
- Microsoft home https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.launcher
-> Both have landscape support, and are leaps and bounds over Apex or Nova, the blank slates that everyone uses for launchers.

Leave feedback for the dev, he put in the work.
Do you have any tips/tricks you would like to share about your G8X?
I see people are not really sharing, and that is sad, because that is one of the reasons Samsung devices are in such high regards, because the XDA community is very verbal about them, even though LG practically gives you the tools to root their devices, whereas Samsung tries their best to not do so.
The call recorder doesn't work when the dual screen accessory is attached and closed, but it does work when you flip it back and answer the call. Can others verify ?
i too am facing the call recording issue... this app works sometimes, most of the times it doesnt record anything, cant determine when it works well
hope LG bring native call recording to LG G8X, i think its just matter of enabling it in GUI. is there a way to submit feature request to LG?

"Works very rarely" is not really a unit of measure, you need to be more precise when offering feedback like when this happens, and its better if you offer it to the devs.
I can confirm that with the initial settings, recording through Bluetooth headsets does not work,the resulting fine is just empty, and i remember it did, maybe something was updated or the LDAC options might affect it. Direct calls do record fine, and it's the only app that allows contact recognition that I found at least.
If you guys find a better app, please let us know.

Currently, the only app with call recording and caller recognition is https://cubeacr.app/ Use direct download, not from the play store, as google does not allow to recognize caller and record calls. The source for the call is "voice recognition software" It looks like it is a mic but in a different mode. Quality is not the best. For me, there is no reason to buy it. Disable automatic update for this app or it will be overwritten by google version.

The play store version now has an addin that you can install, and gives you full functionality. If the volume for the other person is very low (this was the case for me) disable "Force in-communication mod"

Kindly share apk file as the suggested app is not available on play store in my region (India)
I ended up using the skvalex call recorder from Magisk, but you need a rooted phone for that to work. It's also a paid app (with 30 days of trial) and not a cheap one either, but it works flawlessly.
To record a phone call and keep it for myself or my lawyer, is legal in my country.
Hi guys, how is it going?
May i ask for your help, please?
I had android 6(on huawei phone) and i used to record with the app "cube acr", everything worked fine.
Now i own a phone with android 11, i downloaded cube acr but i cannot record, i hear very very low volume.
If i change the recording source i cannot hear anything, it is completely silent.
If i use the "default" phone dialer app, which is "google phone", i can record and the recording is very good in terms of audio.
But i dont like it because is not automatic plus i hear "recording started". Also i read that the other person might know that im recording them.
I want cube acr app to work or a similar app, i dont like google recording.
Can anyone help me or suggest me a way to fix the problem so i can record with a third-party app?
Do you think there is a problem somewhere? Maybe a conflict of some sort?
Thanks happy new year.
If you installed the cube acr app from Google Play Store and you are used to this recording app, I suggest you contact the developer of this app for help.
Perhaps, he/she will develop & distribute a new edition which perfectly supports Android 11 soon.
