Theres an app in market called Enable Video Chat over 3g/4g that worked for me

I was never able to get a session going but it allowed me to attempt. Did anyone actually get video going?

did you root your phone before trying the app?

Yes you must be rooted to make this change or use the Enable app.

My atrix is rooted and I did enable gtalk over 3g, however whenever I calling out, the recepient receives the call, but on my end it never get connected. When I receive a call, it seems like the video started (I see myself), but no other side video nor audio, actually there is audio, but it's like dialup sound - craclking and squicking. After few minutes of this the call drops.
Can anyone confirm it actually works?
P.S.
Just did factory restore, then root and tried gtalk - same problem. Through Wifi it works fine.
[EDIT]
hmmm after reboot its fixed itself...

My setting constantly reverts itself back to true, any way to fix that?

Is call recording possible on Nexus 5?

Is call recording possible on Nexus 5? Can you record both sides with a good quality?
Can somebody test any call recording app from the market, pls?
Cheers

Anybody, please?

I'm also interested in this feature.
Do you have root? I'd recommend trying Call Recorder by Skvalex and seeing if that works. It's the best app for this, and he's usually supportive of getting these devices to work.
This is his app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder&hl=en

Anybody pls?

Can someone check it out please?

I would definitely help if I had the device. Surely someone will come along and spare 5mins of their time testing this out as this is a requirement for many people.

On the same boat. I had Sanity working on SGS2 (Sprint) and it worked perfectly. However, on Nexus 5 it says "Sanity failed to start recording". I tried all the different recording modes.
This is a very important feature for me so I hope someone comes along and figures it out for all of us.
Thank you in advance.

Here is where you need to go to follow an active thread about call recording for various different phones. I've seen the Nexus 5 come up several times in that thread. It won't be long and there will be a solution.

I have just installed this to my rooted N5 and it works very well... clear, proper line recording...

Well worth it to spend a bit to support the dev too, so buy the not-free one after verifying the free one works on your device.

I confirm that this is properly doing line recording :good: (vs. mic recording ) on my rooted N5. 30 days trial. Then it is €7/$10 I believe...

LGE didn't disable the call recording feature of Nexus 5 Android 4.4, so the phone can records calls, no root needed, almost all recorders work well.
I'm afraid Nexus 5 Android 5.0 is a different situation. We checked the "Android 5.0 Preview release", it disabled the call recording feature, no recorder works without root. Even after rooting the phone it's hard to find a recorder that works well, because SELinux prevents recorders to "fix recording problems". Recorder developers are improving their apps. Hope there is a good solution at the end.
Of course, several days later, maybe the "Android 5.0 Final release" enables the call recording feature, therefore all recorders work without root.

hard to say. The call recorder I have used for years works for me on L, with fewer modifications than on KK. Yes it needs root, and to use root, don't we need to set SELinux to permissive in boot.img anyway?

Yes, of course. If SELinux is set to permissive everything is OK.

I installed the latest version from store yesterday (7.4 GP) for my rooted N5. Settings chosen were as below:
- Record Mode: 1 or 5
- Tune Special: No
- Change Audio Controls: Yes
- Change Audio Driver: No
It worked but the voice of other person is not clear, its very shrieky. My voice is clear though. Is that a known issue and do we have a solution for that?
Thanks.

Other Nexus 5 users reported the settings worked well.
If you enable the "Tune Special" option does it have any change? If the problem is still there please click the "Call Settings - Fix Recording Issues - Ask New Parameters" item in Boldbeast Recorder to send hardware log files to us, let us have a look at them. Thanks.

2 way call recording on non rooted Nexus 5 is disabled by the manufacturer.
There is no way to overcome this without rooting and the "best" workaround would be to turn the speaker on when recording calls.
For rooted Nexus 5 devices, many recording apps will enable 2 way call recording.
You can try our Jit Call Recorder app.
It was developed on various devices including rooted Nexus 5 and it records both sides of the call, including calls made with Bluetooth connected.
This is a fully functional version of the app limited only by the amount of displayed recordings and the ability to delete recordings. If you find it suitable, you can purchase a license in a small price of ~ 1$.

On my rooted Nexus 5 it does not work. I have tried all the recording methods (mic, audio in, etc)

Answer calls from SW2

Is it possible to answer incoming calls? The manual says you can by touching the phone icon. but there is no phone icon when there's a call coming in. Maybe I'm missing something?

You need to have the call handling smart watch app on your phone.

If you don't have a Sony smartphone you have to use this SW2 extension:

Lucky!
On my stock Galaxy S4 i9505 it never worked.
And if you read the comments on the Google Play you'll find tons of people with the same problem like the OP.

My answer button didn't work either, so I uninstalled the stock call handling app. I then installed call handling pro, it sucked Cuz there was too much lag between someone calling and it showing up on the watch, but the answer button worked. I uninstalled call handling pro, and reinstalled the stock call handling app, and like magic there is an answer button now and it works.

True, the lag appeared in the very latest versions, as now the extension wants to load all the contacts along with their photo, and it takes a long time.
Older version without this feature were enough fast (so I never updated and still use one of them!)

Could work on Samsung Note 3?

Fix for the call handling extension for non-Sonys, allows answering of calls:

[Q] Does Anyone Have Call Recording Working for the Oneplus One?

I used to have call recording working before the Lollipop release using this program.
The problem is that now it won't record. I think at best I can record off the mic or something but you can't really hear what the caller is saying. I tried rooting my device but that doesn't seem to have made a difference.
Does anyone have a Oneplus One that can record calls clearly right now?

Either that or install Xposed and enable the Call Recording Module for One Plus One.

I couldn't get xposed to work...something about compatibility problems.
But I did get my phone rooted fine with TWRP and figured out how to manage my messed up drivers on Windows 7 enough to get the nightly installed with adb sideload. And I found the record option while in a call and it works.
Thanks.

Still working on latest official build - using Xposed framework:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3469283&d=1441910102
and module:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.enablecmcallrec

It's there
It's there on CM12/CM12.1.
You go to the dialer --> "three dots" --> Settings --> Dialing --> Call record format
Choose AAC as AMR-WB doesn't work (so far).
At the next call, once the other party will pick up, the leftmost icon will be a "three dots".
Go there and choose "record the call".
At the end the record file will be in CallRecordings folder.
P.S.
Some wording could be different, while similar, as my phone is not set in English.

total recall works for me

Call recording.... jOnePlus Tools does it work on OP7 Pro?

I absolutely need Call Recorder on OP7 Pro... coming soon from Poland
jOnePlus Tools is still working?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.jroot3d.joneplustools
Any other solution?
Tks

this is a great question
Last time I checked, Pie disables the ability to record your conversations using the earpiece and microphone but still works using the speakerphone. I record my conversations as well using the S9 Plus on Oreo. When I upgraded to pie, the recording stopped. So I had to downgrade and find another solution to have the latest software and the abilityto record. Another way to record using the earpiece and microphone audio source is through unlocking your phone so I heard. I couldn't unlock my S9 Plus as it's the Snapdragon variant can't be unlocked for who knows what reason since it is my phone.
The play store updated its policy as of March 2019, forbids apps to record/gather the caller ID. This could be corrected by installing a version of the app before the policy took effect

Does the built in screen recorder capture call audio, I wonder... ?

I tried Cube CR ... It works a bit, but mostly it doesn't record when a BT headset is connected ...
I think Skvalex also has the same problem.
Do you confirm enabled the native call recorder?
Is the ADB procedure the same as OP6T?

The OOS Magisk module works like a charm (GM1913 Op7Pro). Simply install, reboot, enable auto record in stock dialer app and done :good:
(Edit: only tested the phone earpiece/mic, no Bluetooth or other ways tested).

Have not yet tried bluetooth, but is not a problem for me, I use bluetooth very little. But will try bluetooth later.
I enabled (and tried) native call recording once, but not anymore.

Thank you very much.

Call Recorder from Skvalex here too.
BT recording works, but you can hear mostly your voice, and the remote party is more like a white noise. Also, I installed the version from official site, because play store version can't show numbers due Google's new policy.

This will also be coming as a toggle-able feature in an upcoming custom ROM.
It will basically enable to built in call recorder in the OnePlus phone app which you can then just enable in its settings.

I'm just a tester for the ROM but the good work is done by @mwilky. You can have a look over his ROM (Renovate ICE) in the OP6 and OP6T forums to get a sense of the types of things you can do with this specific ROM.
Fun times ahead!!
