Call Recording (Both Sides) - possible with s4 (i9500)? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Quick question - I want call recording. But when I tried to record with the button that comes in my in call menu, it only recorded me speaking and the other side was completely silent. I don't understand the semantics - are there hardware limitations? - with the current ROM/kernel none of the third party apps are allowing me to record the other side. (I am using the 5.0.1 Aurora Note 4 Port Stable 7.0 ROM by @alemtro )
How do I make this happen? ( I am happy to pay for an app if need be, but only if the call recording is seamless, not buggy and works everytime).

FYI it's working perfectly on stock TW (5.01) for the i9500. Just tried it out. So I'd guess there's something wrong with the software setup you've got.

question about call recording

this is somewhat of a galaxy s 1 question, but ill throw it at you guys anyway.. i was always told when i looked into a call recording app, that android wasnt able to record calls, because of hardware limitations, but then i saw a call recorder pop up in my Darky rom, on my SGS.. no idea who made it or where it came from, never heard anything about it before or after, but its been there in his roms since. how was the galaxy s1 able to have a call recorder built right into the dialer app, who did it, and will the galaxy s2 be able to have such a thing?
I'm not sure who told you there but there are a few on the market.
I also had a call recorder with the Gingervillian ROM on my HTC Desire so I think it's part of the CM7 mods.
so does that mean if CM7 comes to the S2, well see a call recorder?
Isn't Call recording not a part of the SGS II TW Rom? I could have sworn I saw it was state somewhere. I just cant recall where at the moment.

[Q] i9500 Low Mic Issue

Hello everybody,
I'm sorry for opening that topic but i'm desperate now. I saw similar topics for that but i tried every written solution on that topics not working.
Last month i've rooted my i9500 first time and flashed CyanogenMod (4.4.2 Kitkat). There were few bugs on this ROM. For example Camera Problem, Low Mic issue etc.. After i used that ROM 2 days, i decided to change my ROM because of bugs. I changed 4-5 ROMs for i9500. ( Phoenix, CyanogenMod(New Version), MIUI etc... But the low mic issue was still there.
I tried flashing Stock Rom 4.3
Flashing Stock New Rom 4.4
Flashing stock Kernel and stock Radio
Flashing other ROMs...
I tried all of them. All problems gone except low mic issue. First I thought something wrong with my hardware but after that i noticed that the low mic issue is just running on Phone Calls. If i open speaker my voice is perfect but in normal call people barely hear me or don't hear me.
Voice recorder and Video Recording is perfectly record sound. The problem is occur only Phone Call without speaker.
So i need your help, how i can solve this low mic issue ?
Thanks for all.
try downloading AudioManager on play store and see if it helps. It could be a hardware problem you know.
cheers ~
I downloaded AudioManager but nothing changed. I guess the problem is not hardware because if i use speaker on phone calls my voice is perfect. Audio recording and video recording are also perfect.
No solutions ?
please help me about this. i tried everything i've read nothing changed.
You've probably got dirt in your microphone hole, locate it on the bottom of the device and use a dental pick or something to clear the blockage.
Perhaps you're covering the microphone hole when you hold up the phone to your ear?
I tried to clean it nothing changed. I'm holding same as i always do . I tried directly speak to mic hole. Nothing changed
Same Issue please help us
I Have same issues, im sure Hardware is working Fine, mic in low volume if using at phone call and record voice note. but in other apps like Audio Record, and Activate Speaker Phone mic is Working properly, S Voice, etc
I also upgrade my device GT-I9500 JB 4.3 with firmware for Russia I9500XXUFNB3_I9500SERFNB3_I9500XXUFNA6_HOME
After that , start my problem with S4 device and microphone NOT working level is so bad and low .... sound is very poor
If I use speaker option mic working good , also if I use bluetooth headset for communication sound work good , normal .
But have problem if I answering and try talk "normally " by microphone .
Today try with other 4.4.2 firmware like I9500XXUFNB7_I9500OLBFNB4
But unfortunately, there is still the problem with my S4 GT-I9500
My mic work good with JB 4.3 but this problem start when upgrade to 4.4.2
Best ,

Thanks

[Q] S4 GT-I9500 Problem with call Recording

Hi,
I'm using Omega ROM v20 for S4 GT-I9500, and I problem with the CALL Recording, everytime I try to record the call by pressing the Record button, the popup errors message always shows like "Media Scanning" or something like that, I've never been able to RECORD any calls.
Also I've tried with 3rd party apps, and try variation settings but the problem is the call can be recorded however, taking very long time since the calls have been made for about more than 30 secs to 2 minutes before Call Recording apps start to record my calls (Have tried LOTs of Call Recording apps via Google Play), but the problem still persists.
I don't know how to fix it, even I did a FULL WIPE and went back to ORIGINAL ROM (STOCK ROM), the problem still persists for BOTH problems above.
Please if anyone has experienced this problem and know how to fix it, or anyone has any good solutions, please share with me, I will be very appreciated that.
Thank you so much
Update to OMEGA v.22 -> HERE

Samsung galaxy s4 (9505) Problem with mic

So guys after I flashed the Cyanogenmod 12 on my galaxy s4 I noticed some problems with the mic.
For example:
In call, People are complaining that the hear themselves (echo)
In videorecording, the sound is too dirty like there is no noise cancelation at all.
In sound recording, the levels of input when I am recording are going to the red all the time
I checked some solutions but none worked for me.
I do not have the mixer_paths.xml neither the audio_platforms_info.xml. Then, I tried to change some setting into the build.pro file and neither there.
Also, I don't want to roll back to the stock rom because I do not want to back up everything and then install them again and etc.
Any suggestions ?
Are you sure the mic holes are not dirty and filled with dust? You got one in the top and one in the bottom.
Answer
Yes I am pretty sure! I opened and cleaned the mics ! The problem started when I flashed cyanogenmod 12

Kushan CM is old and discontinued I think.
Switch to the official CM13 or other roms based on it.

Help : Microphone Issue with N910F

Hi guys
I've had the Note 4 for a while but only had an issue I think after the marshmallow update. The microphone doesn't seem to pick up any sound: tried to record a voice memo and it's blank. WhatsApp calls, the other person can't hear anything, Snapchat doesn't record any sound. Weird thing is that when I call someone with the normal dialler it picks up sound fine. A restart fixes the mic issues and works well, but after charging the phone the mic stops working again. Any solutions?
Unlocked, Not rooted, Knox tripped though, & running android 6.0.1
I have the exact same issue when I moved to the German 6.0.1 N910FXXS1DPE6 ...
Restarting fixes it but is a pain in the ass
