[Q] Any way to record calls? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm trying to get call recording working on my Z2.
I'm on a stock based 4.4.4 rom (from Dikej).
The problem is that I can only record calls via microphone, so only my voice will be recorded. Whenever I've tried choosing voice uplink + downlink recording, it fails. It just won't record.
I've tested plenty of apps, I even used Xposed module, which says sth. like "audio resorce is not available" after pressing the record button.
I've tried also different kernels, but without any luck.
My dad also owns a Z2, with completeley stock ROM, no root etc. and he just installs the same app that I have and it's working.
Is there any way to make it work?
Maybe someone has a good, tested kernel, that can record both sides.

Yeah, that's exactly the app I have and it doesn't work correctly on my phone

Xperia Dialer Mods for me just fine, clear and working perfectly. But u need to install xposed first.

I'm using existenz 4.5.0 and it has call record enabled on the rom, no apps / xposed needed
Just go to settings / call / call recording (enable)
I think stock 4.4.4 has this too (not sure / don't remember), see if you have the option in the settings, if you have just enable it and you can record perfectly, straight from the stock in-call-ui

In many devices selecting one of the VOICE CALL audio sources (e.g. VOICE_CALL, VOICE_UPLINK, VOICE_DOWNLINK) will fail because it is not properly enabled / implemented by the manufacturer. You should choose (if applicable) DEFAULT (not MIC) audio source.
You can try Jit Call Recorder. if it does not work and you have root we can send you a configuration file to help you make it work.

Thanks but it could not recorded although has appeared button icons

Callrecorder 1.3.1 not work

Hi.
I'm using P768. I'm setup Callrecorder 1.3.1 but not work.
Thanks !!!
Odp: Callrecorder 1.3.1 not work
It will not work until bootloader is locked and we can't use custom kernels. Callrecorder needs patched kernel.

im using call rec and work great at 4.04,now i have JB but does not work any more..Now i try total recall and call recorder and both not work,,so question is does must root my JB 4.1.2 to work this app, or exist chance without root,app work very bad now because record on at mic, so sound is teriball but voice link when going on write dont suport.So what you think?
"Record My Call" is FREE and does not need rooting. I always used it since a year without any issues. Crystal Clear voice recorded both sides. Many options.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.record.my.call&hl=en
Just Select "Phone Call" option in Trick settings for audio source to record both sides clearly.

First problem phone call not support,just mic

some recommendation ?
Hello,
I have the exact same problem as you, I am currently on a P760 with JB V20C Europe (the problem also occurs for me on V20B), I tried tons of applications to record my calls (skvalex Call Recorder, Total Recall, Record My Calls, ...) without any success.
If I select a setting with "Mic" or "Default", I end up with a sound file which have the good duration but which is empty.
If I select "Phone call" or "Voice Up and Down" (or "Kernel" but no surprise for this one as there is no current 2WCR support), I end up with absolutly no file recorded : some applications seems to "crash" when the call starts.
Does someone have any idea ?
I read on one of those application description that LG integrates on his ROMs a protection against call recording. Is it true ?
Can someone which get it work on the P760 give his precise ROM (version and region) ?
Thank you very much for your answers
We need to wait for 2way call recording option enabled in kernel

This is not working at all on V20D HongKong. I am also looking for good call-recorder.
Btw, this one works but sometimes call recordings are dropped or noise is recorded.
EDIT: Just now re-downloaded latest 21-4-2013 build of "Record My Call" and hey. The calls recording are working fine. Except one or two calls are dropped from recording but now seems improved a lot. I have disabled preview after call end.

Seriously, I don't understand how it works. I just tried the last version of this application and I still have the same issue on my phone (L9 P760 with JB V20C Europe) :
- "Phone call" setting makes the application fail to record (no file generated)
- "Microphone" setting makes the application record an empty file
Maybe it is due to the ROM region (some Europe countries laws forbid calls recording). I should try your ROM version (V20D HongKong). Is a P765 ROM compatible with P760 ? (I will probably lost the NFC feature but I don't even know what usage I can do with it )

I just tried to install the same ROM as you (V20D Hong Kong for P765) on my P760. I installed "Record my calls" and disabled call review after record. The result is still the same :
- On "Microphone" audio source set, an empty sound file is recorded (with the good duration)
- On "Phone" audio source set, a message appears on a call and it says the call cannot be recorded
Is there a real hardware difference between our phones which impacts call recording ? That could maybe explain also why all the current custom kernels goes to panic on my phone .
I finally find a solution to my issue and I can record my calls ! Tested on a P760 with JB V20C Europe (root required).
By looking on Internet, I found a TI-OMAP device which has call recording officially supported : the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. So I decide to apply the call recording method for this device on my P760.
Here is the method
- Install ALSA Mixer (this application requires root)
- Check if ALSA Mixer is operational (when you start this application, you should see a low level I/O part names list)
- Install Skvalex Call Recorder (I used 1.3.5 version)
- In Call Recorder setting, select the device "Galaxy Nexus (GSM)" instead of "LG Optimus L9"
- Make a incoming call from an external phone
Your call should be recorded !
EDIT : Just to tell, I installed the 1.3.9 version and a reboot was required for valid call recording with this trick.
you saved me
tank you
make good
nooo
after 1 or 2 hours stops working registration
I only hear my voice
I have P760 with JB V20D vodafone
Does someone have any idea ?
P.S.
I disabled the task manager but it did not do anything
something stops working, if I restart the phone it works for 1 or 2 hours later...
I know that some recent ALSA Mixer update forces me to also update Call Recorder because it wasn't working anymore.
My current version of ALSA Mixer is now 1.1.3 and CallRecorder is 1.5.2. My ROM version is V20L.
It also seems that the author has fix the invalid parameters for LG Optimus L9 with JB. Now, you do not need to set "Galaxy Nexus (GSM)".
I tried to uninstall and delete all folders
now about 7 hours that works
hopefully good
however, use your own version
P.S.
thanks anyway for the help

that chinese one worked for me- semcphone patcher.
Thank you. I did install semcphone patcher after seeing your post now which app do I install or how do I enable it. thanks
ok. I did enable it and I've got two folders call recorder and recorder. on call recorder folder I get nothing and on recorder I get a few seconds after 20 seconds of audio but I don't hear nothing. I do turn on call recorder on call screen. do I need to install a third app to work.?
on mine on the top (iirc) there's the 3dot menu (in the phone app itself). in there was the call recording option.
on mine it doesnt do it automatically. but that's ok IMO. at least it records.
I got that too but when I play back the audio it gives me a few seconds of play but I don't hear nothing. I'm giveing up call recorder on my xzu for now coz nothing is working for me now. Maybe later thanks guys...

Androrec works perfectly on my C6802
In settings of the app, make sure you choose MPEG4 as recording format, and choose MODE 2 for recording.
It works perfectly, and if you want to record LOTS of calls like me, go the paid version, which allows you to save recording folder in SD card as an option.

androrec does not work in 4.3 it seems (did not try when my Ultraz was 4.2 but I had it working in 4.1.2 LG with mpeg4 and mode 2) Now it does not work in any mode combination (tried all)...mode 1 is the only mode that gives any sound at all and then it is only my voice (rest are all blank no matter amr, mpeg4, 3gp)
Sorry to hear that. I'll just hope that when kitkat comes out I'll be able to use call recorder.

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..

Thank you for your care and developer. But;
This program very simple and don't have auto recording. And can't record bluetooth calls. There is a lot of application like this. Last thing i can't uninstall record window on calling screen It says uninstall success but nothing change
To disable Record button you have to select disable manual Recording (from app itself). This app itself nothing to do with Recording itself but it activates Samsung's hidden Recording Option (native)
For auto call record search my Dr.Ketan Auto call record in theme and app section.

What is the best way to record calls?

I'm still searching a valid way to record the calls, currently I have the H7 PLK-L01 B380.
First of all, i've tried to enable the stock call recorder of H7 (in EU is disabled due to the privacy policy), i've followed various thread on XDA on how to enable this feature, i've done all steps, but when i try to start a recording, this immediatly stop and giving me an "Unknown Error" message.
Then i've tested the following apps:
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nll.acr
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.toh.callrecord
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.boldbeast.recorder (recommended for Huawei devices)
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.geekslab.crpro
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder (paid app)
But all of these at maximum record only by internal device MIC (all other recording methods not working), then my voice is clear and loud, but the voice of others have a very very low volume, because that is recorded by MIC that come from ear's speaker.
So, someone know a valid way to record the calls in Both direction (Caller and Called)?
