call recording. - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Looking for a decent call recording app as the note 9 doesn't come with a stock 1 which is a shame. I tried ACR but it doesn't work. Can anyone help. Thanks

Another idea on page 2

Strange, ACR works perfectly fine for me. Call recorder by Boldbeast is another that works as well.

It does work it's the wifi calling which doesn't actually record which is a pain as have it turned on.

With THL trick as described earlier, you have native call recording from both sides. You have wifi calling and VoLTE, too. The only thing that I missed is the RCS chat messaging.
Chat messaging is working with Google's android messaging app , but not with Samsung's.
Can anyone,who made the THL change, confirm if he has RCS chat message working?
Samsung Note 9 EUR/THL, EUR/EE
And is amazing that OTA updates are working normally!

Flashing back to Oreo from Pie

I have someone who is going to take my Sprint Note 9 back to Oreo. Recording a phone is a must in my profession.
My question is the person doing it says there may not be a way save the data. There has to be a way to save it and put it back on, right?

Doesn't for me on Sprint Note 9. Got Pie update from Oreo Friday night. Saturday couldn't record a phone call using ACR, Cube ACR and two others I tried. I'm far from an expert on how to mod phones so I was looking for help. I'm a reporter so I record a lot of interviews over the phone and use those to write stories later. I have to be able to record calls or I'm in trouble.
Then buy a xiaomi phone, poco for example has Native call recorder built in the phone app,.

Hello,

Tried it, didn't work. When I click on record, I get an error, and nothing is recorded.
Attached is a screenshot from the error.
Perhaps, you might want to try ACR Pro app

But it worked for me. 184 firmware
In my case it is deactivated after installing it. ACR Pro seems to work as a separate recording app.

Got the same error because I hadn't disabled the ACR first. Try disabling it and then it should work fine. Finally a working call recorder for Android 9
Ughh.. The native dialer app has call recording feature too. I'm on latest emui though

I had two call recorders running. Disabled both, everything works like a charm now

can it record calls?

Not by default, but I'm sure you can use an alternative dialer.
Don't be so sure about it. Most (all?) recent Samsung devices have a nice native call recording feature built in, the problem is, it is usually disabled by the CSC settings in most countries, and can't be enabled by the user unless you can change the CSC to one of the countries it is enabled on, or got root. I've been looking for a 3rd party app that would do the trick on Samsung devices before, and NONE of those would record both sides of the conversation in all conversation modes (regular, speakerphone, wired headphones, bt headpones).
PS: Don't count on it unless someone here EXPLICITLY tells you "yes, it works, this is how to make it work".
So no way even with custom dialer

That is weird... On my v20 i used a custom dialer to record calls, no issue.
Just a Samsung issue or something new? My last Samsung phone was a note 4 (rooted) and I've owned lg/pixel between.

Likely varies per vendor, may differ between ROMs (kernels) too, but its not like we have a huge variety on this one.
I wouldn't count on any of the 3rd party recording apps working until someone actually TESTS it.
... still thinking if i want to buy the S20 FE or not, gonna miss the root access and the ease of enabling this kind of features with it.
I have a s20 FE 5g with CSC malesya. I'm recording calls with cube acr and IT WORKS.

i have the S20 5G FE in the USA and i was also able to record calls using cube acr. My phone is factory unlocked
Bit offtopic RANT, but I just don't even care how it is in EU regarding call recording with s20FE anymore. There was all the adverts about colors before lunch, but snapdragon version is only available in dark blue, way to go Samsung Czechia.
Thank you for the info, as if it works in USA it will probably work everywhere
Works for me using the Truephone app
Acr nothing = not working
True phone just mine side = not working, auto recording does not start
Cube acr = working!

Morning guys, quick query on Cube ACR
I just installed it. The voice of the other party is bit feeble as opposed to mine Is that normal?
Since you are already using it, can you please tell me which recording settings work best for capturing the other party voice? so basically the three settings below:
a. Phone recording audio source- which option to keep?
b. Phone calls clarity improvement- do I keep it MAX?
c. Force in-communication mode- do I enable or disable?
Thanks in advance!

i only installed it to see if it works and then immediately uninstalled it as i dont have a need to record my calls. Uninstall it, reboot and reinstall it if its giving you issues. Thats always a first step for me when troubleshooting an app that is just behaving weirdly. We can go from there if its still problematic

There is no problem as such, the app is working fine, it’s just that the voice of the other party is weak. So someone using the app can confirm if that’s the normal behaviour of the app or any combination of settings (the 3 fields I mentioned earlier) which can improve the voice quality of the other party. Thanks for your response though ?
HI, I do not use acr cube anymore because it doesn't have a good quality. I CHANGED CSC and I have now csc thl from Thailand with native call recording. The quality is top. It is possible to change csc on s20 fe 5g.
Basically there are two ways: 1) Buy a Thai sim card from ebay and then put the sim inside your smartphone and start a factory reset. Probably before this you need to flash a thl samsun firmware from sammobile.
2) This is what I did. Buy from ebay 3 credit of samkey. Download from samkey the software for changing csc and use it. If it doesn't work before the procedure 2 flash a thl sammobile firmware, after that check the csc, if it is still not thl start the 2 procedure.
Hope to be helpful.
I use cube acr as well and I don't seem to have issues, lucky maybe?

I'm using Boldbeast recorder. My phone is unrooted at this point, I have the AT&T USA version. To get both sides clearly, what I have to do is wait until the call is connected and then press the record button. Otherwise the other side is faint. At least this works.
I will want this. Can anyone else confirm it works with at&t s20 fe on at&t?

Using Cube ACR with S20 FE 5G on AT&T works great. No special settings, make sure you install the connector app.
My only gripe is that sometimes the app doesnt get the ID of the caller correctly in the call list. I suspect this is to me not using the Samsung contacts app as default though.

Call Recording Apps Poll

I am planning to buy
Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G SM-G7810 Dual SIM 8GB/256GB to be used in uk with 2 sim.​I have currently a mate 20 that has built-in the call recording .
Due to my work I need the call recording because help a lot with note.
Now.
I cannot root the device because it seems I will lose upgrade and also I cannot use bank apps.
I cannot change the CSC for the same reason and it create issue with play store I think.
The only way it is the app.
In previous phone this kind of app have issues with low volume of the person calling or no recording also.
Also they not record automatically .
So which apps are you using and it works
I found out the sometime the apps from the galaxy store works
No one?

Wrong,
I use ACR (NLL) from Galaxy store, and it works perfectly. It is only necessary to accept all required permissions.

OK excluding 1st party apps then... think it's as of android 10 google removed an API for it.
is call recording still allowed where you live ?
I can't see Samsung offering that app in places where it's outlawed

Google has not removed the API, as the ability to record calls, starting from Android 10 for countries where it is not prohibited is still present. But ACR from the Galaxy store (not Google play) uses a workaround for that (maybe with Samsung's permission or support). This can also be seen from version: ACR version 35.0-samsung-unChained.
BTW, and in my country is not allowed to record calls (EU) unless the invited person is notified that they are being recorded.
So neither does my S20FE, out of the box, have the ability to record calls.
Which model do you have? International or Hong Kong?

From your link:
ACR Unchained version 32.9 or above is required. Google Play version of ACR will only record silence. This is because Google Play Store's terms prevents us from using a special service needed to record calls on Android 10.
So we can use ACR version 35.0-samsung-unChained from Galaxy store (with special service needed...).

My model is International Exynos, SM-G780F/DS, purchased in the EU, made for the EU market.
you already posted that, the link was more about the things you said hadn't happened, even though you mentioned they had to be worked around.
HI, All,
I get the native call recoding by simply flashed through Odin the latest Indonesian Firm. I bought the device with Aug1 Firm. Country Bulgaria.
Everything works just fine. No issues with the bank app and NFC at all.
I know this is somewhat of a dead thread, but I wanted to confirm that even the unChained version may or may not work; on my S9 (Android 10) the unchained version didn't work at at recording the other party's voice. I then factory reset to another CSC and it worked, so it seems to be dependent on the country code somehow...

Are 3rd part call recorders working with S10e ?

I'm thinking about buying s10e. I guess the stock FW (9, 10 or 11) doesn't have a built-in call recorder enabled. Are 3rd part call recorders working on it? ie. F-Droid's com.github.axet.callrecorder or Cube ACR
