To occasionally record telephone calls, the Magisk module OOS Native Call Recording Enabler seems to work great. But it's for telephone calls only, not WhatsApp.
Would some of you have suggestions for WhatsApp?
(I tried Cube, but the app complains about not being able to save files. Also, the premium version is by subscription, as opposed to a straight purchase, which I prefer.)
Thanks!
Have you found any?

I don't have a SIM card but I can make calls VoIP with Google Hangouts Voice. Is there an app that can record my calls? I know they exist for non-VoIP apps but none I tried work with Hangouts.
I tried a screen recorder that can record internal sound and microphone, but I get an error that says:
"Microphone Busy, Only one app can use microphone at a time. This is an android limitation. Close other app using the microphone (e.g. Google Now or Skype) or continue recording without audio"

Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it
I just found this thread, I am also looking for a solution for this, let me know if you found anything. I use google voice a lot but unfortunately you can not record calls when usin hangouts for voice calls, I will let you know if I find something.

Is there a way to record whatsapp, viber calls on my s8+? I rooted my phone (thanks xda) because of the reason that I need call recording and it is working. I wonder if it's possible to record the calls from whatsapp and viber. I tried Cube ACR it is great app and it is working for recording regular calls but not voip calls. I contacted them and they say "Unfortunately, your device is not able to record VoIP calls due to hardware limitation."
Does anyone know other apps that I can try or some other way or is it just impossible on this phone?
Hi,
I'm trying to figure what options there are for robust call recording apps on rooted Pixel 3's.
I'd like to know if a specific call recording application functions on Andriod Pie (or later) after rooting the device.
Here's the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder&hl=en_US
If those running a rooted OP6T would install the app and make a few calls I'd appreciate it.
Here's a number to Health and Human Services Office of Civil Right (all prerecorded menus; we won't bother anyone) to do test calls: (800) 368-1019
You may need to do some basic setup. Make sure call recording occurs automatically, or allow the overlay and manually engage the call recording.
For those willing to go to some effort, if at first the app doesn't work, the "Recording Settings" can be tweaked.
I don't know what the difference is between methods, other than that they change how the app tries to get voice data to record.
Can you hear both yourself and the the caller in the recording?
What recording settings were used?
What format did the recording save to (AAC/MP3/Wav?)
What is the sound quality of the recording?
Do any of the above change if you plug in a USB-C earbud/microphone or earbud/microphone attached via USB-C to 3.5mm/TRRS.
(note: bluetooth headsets have compatibility issues even on phones the app works; headset would need to be wired for this test, though info on Bluetooth would be nice if one is so inclined to provide it)
In the applications inbox for recordings, does the number or contact information show up, or is it listed only as "outgoing" or "incoming" call.
Alternatively, I'd be interested in any information/experiences rooted users may have with other call recording software. Such as Another Call Recorder - Unchained (https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.nll.acr). In particular, reliability and call recording quality (as good as 'the call').

I am not going to do all of that, but Boldbeast (paid) is probably your best bet for a nice high quality recording but it requires a bunch of tweaking on a pixel running android 10.
I had absolutely 0 issues using it with my P3 on android 9, but once upgraded to android 10 the only way to get it to work (even with a magisk module they recommended) means losing your "Hey Google" and "Now Playing" auto-detect music feature within the OS (both which I like). So its either stick with Android 9 and have 0 issues, or upgrade to Android 10 and deal with a bunch of BS trying to get the Boldbeast app recorder to work. Google in android 10 is trying to block anyone from using a call recorder all together, they just want it this way. So, I digress.
My previous phone running Android 8 (which I use as a backup) has the app you listed, "Automatic Call Recorder PRO" (paid version obviously) and functions like a dream but its not my daily driver.
If I ultimately had to record a phone call, I swap my sim into that phone and have a nice WAV/MP3 file saved in the cloud.
TLDR; I have no real answer for you :laugh:
Supposedly Google is adding call recording into their phone app. I have not seen it yet.

"With Google Voice, you press a button to start recording the call and then a voice comes on and announces that the call is being recorded. Everybody can hear the voice, so everyone knows that the call is being recorded."
The whole point to using a recorder app is so that someone doesn't know they are being recorded (this is legal is certain states, such as mine).
With an announcement "You are being recorded" kind of defeats the whole purpose. Unless maybe you are trying to keep questionable people honest over the phone with a .mp3 file/proof.
Maybe a Magisk/root hack would be able to turn off this message if google so-chooses to embed it that into the app.

That's my conundrum as well. Legal for me to record. Moreover it's better to have an app automatically record all calls, and be able to organize them into a database with call notes to keep track of who and when. Half of my want to find a way to continue using the existing call recording app, is to preserve the existing database.

Right, that would not be legal in my state.
Hi,
Anyone knows how to record the calls on this phone?

i preassume it will be natively turned on with firefdskit like on every samsung.
Is there a native app (or working sideloaded app) to do VoIP calling between watch and an android phone?
Even a messenger, whatsapp, viber, line, wechat, etc., that has voice calling that works. (i.e., I can make a VOICE CALL to/from the watch and android phone using messenger, whatsapp, skype, etc), even if the watch is not paired with its connected phone
Thanks!
Fb messenger lite used to have half of the functions working (video call was definitely not functioning but I used it on a Wear OS 2 watch). Telegram x must be too. Haven't used those two on the Galaxy watch Wear OS for more than a year though, so can't say for sure.
As for native app, there was Glide and some regional apps.

thanks for the reply. I couldn't get fb messenger lite to make or receive voice calls. When I make a call from the watch, the recipient doesn't receive any notification or indication of a call. Likewise, when I call the user logged into the watch, no notification shows up on the watch that someone is calling -- thus, no way to answer.
I'm talking about having the watch run independently using its native app via wifi, and not merely getting notifications displayed from the phone.
thanks
Reportedly, side loaded Google Duo has even video calls functioning. Not sure about Meet.
There is a native app Line but it could be just voice messages like in Telegram
There is a way to install Whatsapp and make calls from you watch. I have the none lte version and sending and makijg calls works good. Not perfect since the APK is not meant for the watch so the dpi is a bit off but does the job.
