Can the microphone record in 2 apps at once? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

One thing I've noticed... is if I use the voice recorder app, and then go into a call, the voice recorder stops.
How can I make two or more apps access the microphone at the same moment?

Before Android 10, only one app could access an audio input at once; if an app tried to ask permission to an input while it was in use by something else, the app would be blocked. As of Android 10, audio inputs can be shared by multiple apps, but only in some cases: Simply put, accessibility apps can listen for input while a regular app is also listening.
Two ordinary apps can never capture audio at the same time

This one i know what i'm talking about....
call recording depends on local and state laws. Some states/countries it is against the law to record phone conversions. While it other only one of the two party members must be made aware of the recording and very very few allow one to record a phone call with out either member knowing.
I would first HIGHLY suggest looking into your local laws regarding this prior to doing it. You could get in some trouble over it.
I know Google Voice will allow you to record incoming calls, but not out going calls. Other than that i do not know of program that will allow you to do this.
this is mainly for when i call customer service lines so there is no problem as they record it as well. plus i'm in a state where only one party (myself) needs to be informed.
edit: tried vrecorder but it records from microphone. no biggie but who likes to use speakerphone?
i read somewhere that android itself limits the recording. can anyone clear this up for me?
I've tried a few of them- all of them were OK if using speaker. without speaker only your voice can be heard and the other side only very faint, if heard at all.
now I an using "record my call" (with the ugly big red button) and it is relatively working fine most of the time. I like it because it enables you to classify as important, delete record etc after the call...

Android doesn't have any mechanism for recording incoming audio in the OS. For some reason it's missing, even though Android is not bound to US borders, and call recording is perfectly legal in other parts of the world. This is the reason why there are few programs to record calls on Android, and none of them work w/o using speaker.
The only existing way to record would be to put the phone on speaker and use any voice recorder you want.
I use "allcallrecorder" just search for it in the market. Works great for me.

Best voice command for bluetooth headsets?

I've been on a hunt for a voice command app that works well with bluetooth headsets.
I wish that Google's Voice Actions would work with a bluetooth headset, but instead I get the Voice Dialer app every time I want to activate voice command.
So far what I've found to be the closest to what I'd want is Sonalight, but it attaches an annoying link at the end of your SMS messages unless you pay them. Fail.
Does anyone know of a good voice command app that can be activated by your bluetooth headset that will respond and do things like send messages, map locations, and call people? Similar if not identical to Google's own built-in one but that would actually work without me having to activate it from my phone?
Try Jeannie in the market. Works excellent with my Bluetooth.

[Q] Does P780 have inbuilt call recording feature?

For my work I want to change my phone & don't want to carry 2 phones.
Auto call recording when I am in the field is useful feature for me which I need but not sure if this phone has feature of auto call recording.
Does it have this feature if not can call recording be done with 3rd party apps?

Hi. Lenovo P780 has Recorder app build in. If you dont like this yu can try alot of recorders app from Google Magazin Play, just search for Recorder.

In theory, no phone has that. It's kind of a privacy thing. On an IPhone, it's not possible without doing God knows what. On Android, I'm sure there is an app for that, but by default it's not possible.
Just go to the Play store and search for it ? Googling for Android call recording came up with 3 high rated apps already, so you should be fine
Edit : just saw on S123 ROW that there is a button on the ongoing call screen to indeed record the call

Sharing a call recorder that worked for me on Android 10, Lg G8x

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.

is there Screen Locker for LG G8X, Normal App Locker does not work in Secondary Screen
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.
