Call recording turns on at random - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Not sure if this issue is specific to the ROM I'm running or what, but has anyone else noticed that the call recording just randomly tries to turn on when taking calls?
My setup is as follows, 'Kate' device running LOS 13.0-20170301 with Radon kernel (though it did this with the stock LOS kernel too) and it happens fairly intermittently, but I can't figure out how it's happening. What happens is I'll be on a call, and suddenly my phone will vibrate once, and the 'enable call recording' pop up is displayed on my screen. I can only assume that somehow the proximity sensor randomly turns the screen on and my cheek hits the call recording button, as I'm being very cautious about not hitting any buttons, or even the touch sensor on the back, in case one of these things triggers it.
I guess the next question I'd have, does anyone know what sort of shortcuts could enable call recording? I guess my next step if this doesn't ring any bells will be to try and catch it on a logcat.

[Q] Phone Locks during phone call (CM7)

Every time I answer a call or push the send button to start a call, the screen goes blank, all external buttons do not work, and the 4 soft button are not functioning. I have to wait for the other person to hang up to end the call, and even then none of the screen or button functionality returns. I have to remove the battery and reboot the phone every time. Anybody seen this or experiencing this?
Running CM 7.0.2 Stock (no OC kernel, no GPS patch)
Edit: I found that plugging in the usb cable resets the screen and brings it back to normal. there has to be a setting or tweak thats causing this

[Q] Alternate end call options?

I'm running the latest version of CM7 RC 1.2. I have a bad problem of hanging up with people while on a call, even though I hit the power button just after answering the phone. I know there's a modification for sense based ROMS in which the end call button can be disabled and instead, have the end call function built into the notification bar (pull down the bar to end call).
Anyone else having this issue and / or know of a fix for this?
See if the following helps:
Settings->Call Settings->Always Use Proximity.
Sometimes orientation can overrule proximity if that's off so holding it between your cheek and shoulder allows the screen to turn on and makes it easy for your cheek to end or mute a call.
I'll give this a shot, thanks!

[Q] CM7 Screen Temporarily (5-6 seconds) Black When Placing Call

Intermittently, when initiating a call, the screen goes blank/ black for 5-6 seconds, or longer, and does not wake up. During this time, the phone does not respond to any tactile or soft input, but ringing and other audio continues to emit from the earphone.
I do not have any sort of screen cover/ protection, or any other obtrusion to the proximity sensor.
This is extremely annoying, as sometimes, I would like to immediately hang up, or place the call on speaker, but cannot do either as no input registers.
Is this an isolated issue to me, or CM7 on the AT&T SGS2? I am not running any special apps or background services.
It 'feels' as if this is mostly caused by some sort of lag, as it does happen intermittently. i can't pin down a particular pattern during which this persists. Anyone else experience any similar symptoms?

this same issue is what made me drop cm7 and go to UnNamed
I had it and would just hit the power button to turn it back on.

call goes on mute and goes on hold unexpectedly

Please let me mention that I'm not holding the phone in any weird manner, certainly no different that all the previous phones I had.
I'm also with the global international miui rom on the snapdragon version using the default dialer.
While on the call, and although the screen is black, I somehow manage to activate the mute or on hold function.
What typically happens is that the other person suddenly complains, I check the phone and I find either of the two buttons highlighted.
It happens so often that I'm certain its not by accident. Without being absolutely certain, the screen is dark when this happens. Its very difficult to check because at the moment you try check, the proximity sensor kicks in and the screen lights up. What I know is that at the beginning of the call my face is touching the screen and as expected nothing happens. But later and very unexpected it mutes.
Any ideas would be welcome.
Its happens to me to. Did you succeeded to resolve it ?

Stock Dialer/Phone app LOCK/Speaker Phone

The Basics:
Device Samsung Galaxy Tab A SM-T295 8.0 android 9
I have actually two sort of related problems.
First is that, when call comes in, even though this thing is really to big too hold up to your ear, the call doesn't automatically default to SPEAKER. There is a button that needs to be touch AFTER the call is answered to put it into speaker mode.
The second issue is that, as soon as you answer the call, a lock screen requiring a double tap to open comes on keeping you from getting to the speaker button. In another place I read that this lock screen in intended to keep you from inadvertently dialing or hanging up and such when holding the phone to the ear.
This lock screen has about a one second timer on it so getting to the button is very tricky.
This lock screen makes it all but impossible to be on a call and set up a second call to make a three way. I don't do this very often so it isn't that big a deal.
The ideal solution for me would be to get the device to default to speaker phone on every call.
The secondary solution would be to disable that lock screen so I could immediately hit the speaker phone button as soon as I answer the call rather than have to answer the call, double tap to unlock, and scramble to hit the speaker phone button before it locked again.
Since I have already tried and failed to be able to get in to change the SMS limit, solutions that require the same kinds of actions probably are no good.
I a wondering if there is a replacement Dialer/Phone/Contacts APP that might solve the problem??
