[Q] Does SGS2 support proper call recording ?

So, i'm about to get a new phone which MAY be an SGS2.
However i need to know if it can record calls properly, without all this external speaker bull**** ?
Currently i own SGS and its useless in this regard.
If SGS2 doesnt record properly, which of new dualcores does ?

Yes it does. Just use CallRecorder from the market.

CallRecorder works great on the S2, the quality of the sound is perfect. The downside is that when you transfer the wav. file to your laptop, the file format is not recognised.
I have downloaded some software to my pc that converts wav format to mp3 but the file is still not recognised.
Any advice please.

There seems to be quite a few CallRecorder apps on the market, could you please give a market link to the one you are referring too please.

Call recorder has a little green android next to it in market.

No, it doesnt

Killer mobile have just updated their Total Recall app for android and cleared out a couple bugs, this now seems to work just fine for me. It also has the option to record in 3gp, wav, mp3, amr, plus you can auto upload to evernote or e-mail out through gmail.
Call quality is pretty good, only downside is it will not work with blue tooth head sets, correction it does work and record but you cant hear the person your talking to but the recording comes out fine lol.
Ill try the other one recommended here and see if its any better on the quality side but best thing for me with TR is you can set it to prompt at the end of the call to save or not so routine calls or family ones can be deleted without taking up space, you can also use as a dictaphone with a instant record button widget and remote sms into it to record when you have left it in a room and want to know what's been said if your feeling a little paranoid lol.

Is there any free call recorder which works without having to install new ROM?
I use stock 2.3.3 ROM and would like to continue using stock ROM.
I saw "audio hack" on forum - is it needed?
Maybe I have to upgrade to 2.3.5?
Maybe I need kernel supporting it (I use Speedmod)?
I've tried 5 programs and all of them doesn;t record anything or records silence. (dind't try TotalRecall because it isn't free).

alternatively you can try MIUI rom which comes with build in call recording. =)

I don't want MIUI, I don't want alternative ROM, I only need to know why sometimes call recording works, and sometimes doesn't. Is it ROM problem, kernel problem, lack of libraries problem?

Search forum for hacked call app it has native call recording works with any rom.

I've searched but found nothing. Can you you give me more directions?

I use callrecorder from svalec, it works perfectly with stock kernel.

Total Recall with recording strategy C works perfect.

Please stop spamming about Total Recall, all threads about call recording are full of that. Total Recall isn't free and I ask for a free solution.
I've tried callrecorder, it seems to work, thank you!

[Patch]Telephone Call Recording

For those has problem in recording telephone conversation on SGS2 can try this patch, I am using Leomar GB 2.3.4 ROM with this CWM-patch taken from Chinese ROM. Good 2way voice quality using Ultimate Voice Recorder 2.71 other telephone recording software should work too.
Remember backup your ROM before testing in case you may get infinite loopback after flashing

Hi, 2 questions, is this not a "call recording" app itself ? and does it needs kernel support ?, thanks.

Will try it and post my experience here.. I hope this must be a addon to the phone app...

this is just the lib files you still need recording app to do the recording. You can use Cris ROM and patch with this lib. You should get clear voice conversation in the recording

I´m already recording phone calls without this hack, just installed an app (callrecorder) and its working really good, clear voice on both sides.

just install newest Total Recall v1.7.6
select recording method "C" (you can try trial before buying it, if it works!)
worked on KE2 stock and now on KF3 ... so no hack or what so ever...

Conversation impossible if call recording active and BT audio device used.
This patch can't resolve it

Option A in TR can record other side in any case, but not me.

[Q] Call Recorder

I'm looking for a call recorder that will record both sides of the conversation loud and clear,
I'm using Android revolution 6.3.3 and have the Kernel 11.1 installed. It used to record brilliantly but tried a ice Rom and came back to arhd but the call recording software seems to be no longer included I've tried a few different ones off of the market and they work but the volume is very low and inaudible.
Auto Call Recorder - Appstar solutions
Call Recorder - Clevermobile
Androrec free call recorder - Yorker Apps
They are some of what I have tried but the callers volume is to low to hear on the recording, despite trying the different settings.
Does anyone know which call recorder used to be bundled with the rom? Or know of one that works well with the desire hd and arhd 633?

Try caller recorder by skvalex, works good for me...

Working Call recording app for unrooted stock?

Hi,
I have tried a lot of call recording apps but it seems no one of them is working (unrooted, stock). I know without root i cannot achieve good results but at least i wanna have some recording from the mic. Is any call recording app working for you?

I think root is must......not possible without root for two way call recording....

Just root man. It's easy and ultra unlikely you'll break your phone.
Skyalvek call recorder is the nuts

I haven't tried it but apparently tasker has a profile for that. Look on their wiki
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium HD app

It has nothing to do with Root, it is the kernel, that needs to support it.
But ofcourse you can only change kernel if you are rooted
There is a patch out there for two way recording conversations.
Or just use insertcoin rom

Any call recording solutions for Android P / Pixel 2?

I've been using 'Call Recorder' by skvalex for many years across many devices but it seems like it's no longer working since Pie. Tried a couple others and they're also only recording my side of the conversation only.
Is there anything out there working on non-rooted P?

auto call recorder works perfect. I think call recorder from skvalex works also.

It does not work on Android P.
[KB] Android 9 (P) Call recording issues.
There is no way to record interlocutor's audio properly at the moment. You can use Loud speaker to record both side. All call recording apps will be same., This is not limitation of ACR but Android 9 and the phone.

I'm using 'Call Recorder' by skvalex on Pie and it works perfectly with root. I don't know if it will work without root though. If you are rooted I will give you what settings that I'm using.

Can you detail what settings your'e using? Because even skvalex himself mentioned Android P doesn't record the other party, only yourself.

I don't know if it makes any difference but I'm rooted with magisk version 16.7-1674. That build can be found in the Flash kernel thread. I'm also using Flash kernel 3.0. Everything else is stock. Call recorder 3.0 with root add-on 2.03-1.

Everything else is basically default. I attached a few screenshots. Here is a link to a recording with me talking to an answering machine I just uploaded to Google drivehttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1eDqtDJzMaZi05l7CdY1fUy8teXm8U4LC/view?usp=drivesdk.
You can hear me talking over it saying hello several times. All my recordings are perfectly clear on both sides.

This is recording from phone earpiece speaker with gain. All apps can do that. It is not real call recording

I'm simply telling you my phone model, which app I installed and the settings I used.
It recorded both sides of the call, nice and clear, I am able to hear the entire call.
what part of that is not real call recording?

I think you misunderstood me. It might be acceptable for you or someone else. However,cCall is recorded from the earpiece speaker, gain applied. Real call recording is done by getting audio form Android system not from speaker. Hence, it is not real call recording.

Works perfectly on Pie with Pixel 2 XL rooted!
