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.

It seems there is already 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)

Hi, I just flashed TugaPower's rom, which is based on Android 7.1, and since then ACR doesn't record phone calls. It does record what I say, but not what the other side is saying.
Is there any working app for Android 7.1?

I have same issue... I need recording to work.. in the meantime i am using stock cm phone app on tugapower just needs to be clicked every call but it is working.
Total recall
Call recorder same thing
Is total recall the only option for OPO running 7.1.x?
I was hoping for a simpler app without all the cloud integration.
Built in in lineage OS
Call Recorder - ACR is working for me
This function has been built-in for ages on Cyano based ROMs ? Lineage has it too
i have some problems with android version 7.1.1 neither call recorder does not record voice calls .please advise me which recorder goes or works on android 7.1.1 thanks .
Using Call Recorder (app: voicecallrecorder) and running latest RR ROM (May 30). I have no problems with the app.
Hi, I'll try to keep this as simple as I can, I'm having problems with calls reconding on my device.
Before updating to Android MM and N I was able to record every call made and received on my device on any ROM I flashed that was runing Android 5.1.1 or earlier.
After updating Marshmellow and Nougat I can still record my calls but there's a problem, the phone only records my voice over the mic and nothing else! It doesn't record whatever people is saying to me unless I turn on the loudspeaker. That wasn't happening on the previous versions of Android, I was even able to record with my earbuds's microphone, so I'd like to know if there's a workarround this issue.
Am I the only one with this problem? Some help would be very much apreciated.
Thank you!
Hi,
I am using Samsung Galaxy S7 running Android Oreo with the latest Boldbeast recorder. When I record a call, it is only recording my voice and not the voice of the person on the line. Why is that so? It used to work great prior to the update of the phone and the app. So, I am not able to figure out what is causing this. What should I do?
Thanks
Bump....
A lot of the call recorders stopped working with Oreo. Due to some google security feature. I've heard that ACR still works on Oreo, and also a dutch named gespreksopname.
does the native call record still work with oreo for those with rooted samsung phones?
The call record button in the dialer in an Oreo ROM on my S7. So that works.
I also use Boldbeast recorder. It has like a dozen different methods of recording to choose from, and another half dozen more if you have root. They keep their app pretty up to date. I'd be surprised if none of those different choices worked. When I first tried it, it took a couple tries to find a good method. I haven't yet tried it in Oreo though.
Hi there,
Anyone can suggest a good call recorder app for the 5 II? My favourite ACR stopped working a while ago and instead of fixing it they released a new app, combined dialer and everything, but it doesn't work either so I need something to record my calls. Phone just updated to android 11, no root, stock firmware.
Thanks!
