LineageOS 15 (Oreo) phone dialler removed call record? - LineageOS News & Discussion

Hi, Love LineageOS -- using it on my ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser (z00t). Just upgrade to 15.x after using 14.x for a long time.
I notice the new phone dialler is the 'Pixel' style Google dialler -- sadly this seems to have no call record function. I miss it from the previous dialler used in LineageOS.
Any chance I could revert just the dialler? Or should I just revert to 14.x and stick with that (assuming there will be further updates?)
Thanks,
-R.

Yeah. I was hoping to avoid the hassle of evaluating a ton of apps, dealing with ads, possible malware etc. though. Seems the reviews for every 3rd-party recorder is filled with model-specific bugs, only recording one side of the call, etc.
Is there a real reason *why* it was removed as a built-in function? It worked flawlessly on my nexus 5 and asus zenfone2 laser with v 14.x. I know it's illegal in some zones, but no reason to nerf it worldwide for those of use who can use it. Sigh.
Oh well, I can't complain -- lineageOS is free, and I love it. Thanks to all the devs for your efforts!

I saw in some discussions for lineageOS 14.x that the Google Apps dialler, if installed, overwrites the AOSP dialler. I don't recall what version of opengapps I installed on top of 14.x but if there's a version of opengapps for 15.x that omits the dialler, perhaps 15.x still has the record feature? I may try reverting to pure lineageOS to see... but then I am faced with somehow getting opengapps w/o the new Google dialler on there.
Before I waste my time, can anyone confirm whether the AOSP dialler packaged with lineageOS 15.x allows call recordings?

Call recording - feature in CM11 nightlies

Some nightlies ago, call recording feature was introduced in CM11.
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/69850/
For legal reasons, this isn't enabled by default.
To enable it, edit build.prop and reboot.
Code:
persist.call_recording.enabled=true
persist.call_recording.src=4
You will get a recording button while in a call. Playback of records can be done in call history.
Please report if it works.
Notice that it will work only for newer ROMs (mostly nightlies)

not tried, would say not yet
as I see only in CM11 nightlies until now.
In the next releases the feature should be integrated in CM11 stable and then CM11S.
note that I have not tried yet as I am currently not on nightly.
Feel free to look whether the properties exist

that's great news
i thought Cyanoge will not bring this feature coz it's illegal in some countries
I'm on 33R and I tried it... it did nothing. I made one call and saw no additional options, and I received a call with the same result.
I'm on the latest nightly build 0902, adding those lines to build.prop did nothing, no call record button appears.
thank u vry much for ur reports !

strange... on some/many other devices it already works. would be good if the properties would already be there without having to add them.
are the added properties still there after rebooting?
will try myself tomorrow

Of course it did nothing. It's only just been merged into recent nightlies.

Yea, this isn't working :/

[ DEVICE : N5 ] [ ROM : CrDROID ] [ KERNEL : BIGBUM ]
There are 2 xposed modules to enable this feature without the 2 lines above, doing so on CM11S will do nothing, and you will see in xposed log an error that it was not successful, which is logical because this has not been integrated in CM11S (and i guess it will not, as most of the countries were OnePlus is sold prohibit call recording).
on CM11 builds after nightly 14/08 it will show an extra button.
so...
- If you are using CM11S (the official OnePlus ROM), this will NOT work
- If you are using CM11 monthly (currently M9), this will NOT work
- If you are using CM11 nightly after 20140814, this will show the extra button, will it work? i haven't tried recording.. yet
The values stayed there after a reboot...
Too bad xposed is required, I don't use it and this feature would definitely not justify installing it.
Sept 2nd buid doesn't have the properties in it.
But I can't test any further cause I don't have this phone any more (sold it^^ too big)
This thread may be interesting:
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/cm11s-will-be-internal-2-way-call-recording-possible.3297/
i'd also like to see this functionality on the 11s
Be warned, if the person on the other end is in some states or countries, recording them without consent is illegal.
Guys will the OnePlus have call recording built in eventually so an app isn't needed?

Is it possible to use some hack to enable call recording in 38R, as it is build after 20140814?

Yes, you can do it easily by installing the Xposed module RecEnabler
You dont need xposed module.
You need what OP edited, and call record program. You can find it here on xda. It will work fine with caf root methood, select bacon(!) not oneplus from list or you will have distortion. This is for nighly.
Users confirmed Boldbeast call Recorder works very well for CM11 on many phones, for example
http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...corder-galaxy-htc-t2923904/page3#post57087069
Boldbeast call Recorder works perfectly for the stock One Plus One ROM (need root), I guess the app works also for CM11 on One Plus One. Can anyone please test it? Thanks.

[REQUEST] In-Call Screen of MIUI on Lineage OS

Can anyone confirm if there is a way of changing the In-Call screen to MIUI screen on Lineage OS?
I love MIUI In-Call screen and recording function
Miui stuff is deeply integrated into the framework so its not possible to port any miui stuff to custom ROMs.

OK, so I flashed this mod, it worked.
Way better than stock dialer app, however no call recording function available.
Something is better than nothing.
Thank you.

If you are using Lineage '13' then u can use xposed modules for enabling recording.
On nougat, use 3rd party apps instead.

After wiping stuff, UNMOUNT SYSTEM, then flash.
Languages included in the ROM?
Thank you OP.
Can you (or anyone else who is currently using this version) confirm if Double Tap To Wake is working?? I remember liking the previous versions of this miui but had to remove it as soon as found out DT2W is not working -- that is a showstopper for me. Also, on the video you just posted the reviewer explicitly states that there are GPS issues with the OP3T specifically, can anyone comment on this??

GPS works as intended, double tap to wake doesn't.
Back on this after trying out some new 8.1 builds. Still rom to beat.
I hope @akino553 credited properly for his work on this.

Thanks for the tip! Video saving works with this app, confirmed.
Some MIUI and ROM features aka reasons to try this rom:
GApps included.
VOLTE works.
No major bugs, daily driver.
It's Nougat but rom is smooth and fast!
Fingerprint is fast! Better that most 8.1 roms.
Slick interface, coming from very blunt stock android and OOS roms.
Great theme engine. All black theme present.
Great selection of wallpapers online.
Native call recording.
Latest GCam works.
Native screenshot scroll for extended screenshots.
Mi Account and Mi could - great native way to back up and restore your contact, messages, notes, apps. (just create free MI account)
Some minor issues:
- double tap to wake doesn't work.
- video saving issue (temporarily fixed by using footej camera from play store)
At initial boot and setup phone gets pretty hot but give it 20 mins and it's gonna be like any other rom.
Using magisk 15.2 as per developer recommendation, all good here, root gets remembered by apps.
Sometime laggy...but best miui rom
Anybody tried on op3t?
I heard in the video that the GPS services wasn't working on the 3t. If anyone has flashed this on 3t can you confirm that and also how's the battery life ? Another thing is does g cam work completely with portrait mode on both sides?

OP3T user here. Video recording DOES NOT work with the built-in camera apps. I've not tried 3rd party apps yet.
The GPS works fine,no issues faced yet.
I've been consistently getting 7+ hours of SOT. Pretty stable ROM.

Exdialer-like Dialer App for ZF Max Pro M1

I've installed it (apk from Apkpure, because it's not present in Google Play now), and found it doesn't work correctly in stock Oreo on M1.
The calling history is correct, but the contact list is empty so the logs in calling history are only in number form...
So desperate because I really don't like the default dialer in M1, I just prefer the old style which shows the keypad turning on with calling history showing above when I click the dialer.
I've tried different similar Apps and all don't fulfil my simple requirement...
It seems many good dialer & contacts Apps are off the shelf now, what's happening?
Loved ex-dialer. but its in-ability to provide proper support to dual sim made me switch to Pixel phone dialer.
Used Pixel phone dialer for long time. But its latest update is pathetic.. The free version is much better than Pro version and it doesn't support proper dpi scaling in the latest version.
Switched to DW Contacts & Phone. Very much happy & its working fine on M1 for me from past 1 year.
it has everything i need and much more

Lineageos and portrait photo

Hi,
I've just installed Lineageos 18.1 on my OnePlus 6T.
One killer-feature I used to play with, was the portrait mode in the camera function provided by Oneplus ROM.
I can't find it in Lineageos, not the camera but the portrait mode.
Did I miss something ?
Thanks
Maybe an answer for myself: reinstall camera app from original OnePlus OS.
Looks like working.
Deeper testing progress.
I'm actually surprised it works? Most people use GCam.
Personally on the 6T and 18.1 I'm using GCam_7.3.018_Urnyx05-v2.4.apk
Links from Celsoazevedo.com
There are several XMLs there for the 6T you can try. Personally I'm using, urnyx-7.3.018-v1.4.xml
Actually my daughter has a 5T with OxygenOS and send me the OnePlus Cam apk.
Once installed, it works but seems a bit... don't know what word to use, "not good as on OOS" (slow, blury, crashes sometimes).
I've also installed Gcam but with Play store (4.4. 020).
Is your version safe and stable?

All the phones I've known to get the OP Camera to work on Custom roms also needed the libraries associated with the camera and gallery. Most people don't bother anymore because GCam works as good or better. With caveat of GCam does require Gapps to be installed to function typically.
That is the site many people here on XDA use. I've been using it for a very long time, and use it across multiple devices to find GCam versions and XML files. Those various developers usually have XDA threads here as well. You'll find links back to their threads on that site (It just hosts their builds).
I just suggested that as a starting point, as I believe everything is functioning in that version? It's the one I've been using.
Many thanks for your feedback and advises.
I've installed app and xml from website you've mentioned. Looks working perfectly fine (some lag for portrait mode but not annoying).
Keep digging in the app.
Thanks again !!!

Delay? Granted, I have an 8T in front of me at the moment and not a 6T, I can test later on a 6T.. However have you tried turning HDR Enhanced to just On. Don't be afraid to try various versions or XMLs (just remember which one works best). That was just the one that I've been using. You may find one that works better. Also note I know even Urnyx05 has newer versions. Typically once I find a version that works for me I'll stick with it.
That's the good and bad thing about GCam, tons of options and things to play with.
