App for phone conversation recording

Does anyone know of any app for phone conversation recording wher you can record the other person without turning on speakerphone?

I have a mini and always record phone calls for taking down job address for work, I can hear the whole conversation very clear when played back.
I just use the normal "Notes Record Function" on the phone.
I think it depends on the rom or could be the different phones as I know when I had an XDA II I couldn't do it, if I pressed record I could only hear myself and not the person on the phone.

that's it
Thanks seal for your reply, but in fact if I do as you say I can only hear my voice and ver,very low the other person's. I tried other software but with the same result. I don't know if there is a software specific for it.

Resco Audio Recorder works

doesn't work
Thank you for the suggestion but it doesn't work as I need. Again, I can only record my own voice not whom I am hearing. I don't know if it is a hardware problem. Let me know hwat you guys know about it.

You have to turn the speaker on, first.
then try using the recorder... you dont have any other choice.
you may wonder why is that??
It's because the device has two processors.. one of them in the Xscale.. and is used to run everything but the stuff regarding the phone...
there is another chip used as a mini processor for running the phone stuff...
I guess there is no inner circuit between both processors... so recording directly is impossible....
cheers

thanks
Despite the bad news thanks anyway.

use vito sound explorer
Hi guys
I use Vito Sound Explorer. It works fine for me. Except when I need to record conversion. while on the line. I had to press one of the buttons which I have mapped. so that recording starts. the sound quality is good.
I don't find that annoying.. one press of a button.

Does it work even when using a bluetooth headset?

vito sound
does vito sound record the other person's voice, without turning on speakerphone?

[Q] [help] skype & viber is having same problem

hi...i searched the forum so think posting this question would be appropriate...
recently i just flash my rom to sony's official 2.3.3 (not the xda pre-rooted version)
as usual i download skype and viber, but i am having the same problem with them
when i make/receive a call, i can hear the other person's voice, but the person CANNOT hear me...
just wondering if anyone is having the same problem here?
and is there any way to fix?
i hope it's not my device's problem ><
thanks!

Viber is terrible to begin with... Skype works fine for me.. There is a bug in the X10 mic driver that makes the sound echos.

since the update to skype with vid, the x10 is not able to make any call, look at the home page for the modded version, might work

9.0 (Pie) and call recording on Mi A1

Has anyone who has upgraded to 9.0 tried call recording?
My understanding is Google has changed the operating system and basically stopped 3rd party apps from recording calls without root.
My job requires I record call so I am keen to know the Mi A1 situation before upgrading.
It has been said that some manufacturers could undo the changes made by Google and allow call recording but that it was quite unlikely as the laws vary so much from country to country, this coupled with the fact our device is Android One make this even more unlikely as we should receive "stock" android.
Would be grateful to hear anyones experience.

I updated yesterday to Pie. I have ACR Pro and in automatic mode it does't record the other side's voice :/
Actually if you are in a quiet environnement can you hear the other side but very faintly.
Hopefully someone will come up with a solution or we'll have to root the phone.

Boldbeast works
I yesterday updated to pie. I use Boldbeast recorder. To check, I recorded a call. The result was that other side was clearly audible.
P. S. Non rooted phone

Thanks for that.
I'm surprised though.
If you look at the reviews on Google Play, Bolbeast replies (to a user with a MI A2 on the 23rd of December):
Android 9.0 disabled the call recording feature, you can only record your own voice, no matter what recorder you are using in the market. You can test and confirm this fact. This app can fix the problem perfectly if you root the phone. Without root you have no solution in the world, with root this app is exactly the solution.

You say "clearly audible" but is that at the same volume as your voice ?
Because on ACR, the mic source can also pick it but at a very low volume.

Anybody tried Boldbeast using root mode?

Using Cube ACR, and voice is only audible, not loud and clear, and very hard to understand.
Boldbeast isn't working for me.
I didn't have to update to Pie, looking forward to downgrade safely for may reasons.

I've just tried Boldbeast out of curiosity...
with default settings it doesn't work, I can record my voice but not the other party.
With rooted mode and the settings described in the docs for Google Pixel (Record mode: alsa) it works perfectly.

Mic is not working while calling

Can't use mic while calling every time I have to turn on speaker even on WhatsApp.
I tried to test the mic by using voice recorder and some mic test stuff from playstore every thing working good but mic is not turning on while calling....
Many users have the same problem so if anyone solve this problem please share it too us

I've had the same problems on custom roms, hot fix for me is to mute and unmute in WhatsApp.

Microphone Not Working

Hi, I have a strange problem with my Oneplus 8 Pro. After updating to 10.5.10 the microphone is not working for all the apps. I can place calls normally, call using messenger and record videos but it does not work for Google Assistant and the official Recording App or Facebook messenger when recording a voice clip. I even tried it in safe mode but still the same issue. I have also checked that the apps have access to the microphone. I reinstalled 10.5.10 hoping to fix this issue but still the same happens. What can I do? I am also rooted with magisk but I don`t have any new modules that can interfere with the microphone. The phone has previously worked normally with root so I don`t think it is the problem. Does anyone have the same issue?

So you did go all the way back to factory reset correct? If not you're going to have to do that or start uninstalling one app at a time or if you have Titanium Backup you can freeze the apps. I'm sure it's a rogue app somewhere or something got switched in your settings.

I had same problem , i got my problem solved , just blow air on mic at the bottom , and also clean it , issue will be fixed !

Also install magisk module for enabling factory mode and test the mic , go to single mic test , there you test all the three mics seperately , enjoy !

Experiencing the same problem
I'm experiencing the same problem. OnePlus 8 Pro, except it's not rooted or running magisk.
The microphone works for some applications but not for Google assistant at all. I have tried all known fixes I could find by searching. Clearing Google app cache and storage, etc.
Also I find that the first 5 seconds of WhatsApp voice message recordings I make are silent. Not sure if that's related..
Any suggestions?

Hie, even I am facing the same problem. My google Assistant was working well but after I updated, it is not responding also my official recorder app and my Instagram video call works well but videos don't have any sound ...
Have you got a solution to it? Please lemme know I am just too stressed.?

Hey @ananya_arora157. I'm not having an issue with sound playback, just sound recording. Maybe your video sound issue is a seperate one?
Just came here to also say that recently I have had my microphone working in assistant without doing anything. However it's now not working. I have this intermittent issue in other apps too, like DuoLingo. Sometimes when it asks you to speak what has just been spoken to you it works, other times it doesn't.
I'm convinced this has something to do with OxygenOS not providing access to the correct microphone for the app, or the app not using the right microphone. This happens with WhatsApp as well, as mentioned above. Please can someone on the OxygenOS or OnePlus team respond here? I've seen a few comments here and there of this happening to others as well so it's a known issue. It's a real problem with this happening to a flagship phone. Why are we just getting silence in response?

This also happened to me

This also happened to me. All microphone related applications fail for the first 5 to 7 seconds. Then it works normally. Some applications such as Camera, Messenger, ...[/U][/U][/B]

I had almost the same issue but with my last xiaomi. The reset to the factory settings didn't work for me, so I had to change the microphone.

Same here. I can make calls, and voice to text with gboard works.
But hey google, alexa and all other voice recording apps stop working since two days on my op 8 pro

I'm getting the same problem. Anyone found a fix for this?

Exactly same problem here after the OS update
Microphone is working for some apps but not for others. It was working fine earlier but stopped working for phone recorder app and for ok google..any resolutions here?
It seems to be a common issue among many others, so OnePlus team should take it into account and must provide a fix ASAP.

Might be a good idea to state what OS you're all on and perhaps what mods you have installed then maybe a coming fault can be identified.
Also if a custom kernel is installed.

I have the same issue. Phone calls and video recording don't seem to have any problem. Only voice messaging for all apps are error. Go as far as doing factory reset but it still doesn't work.
Any idea how to solve it?
I just bought it for few months and the experience is great except this one.

Yes I found the fix. After all factory resets and downgrading OS didn't worked. So I tried to blow bottom mics from dust and it started working. So stupid but effective.

Has anyone found a fix for this, I recently started having issues.
Stock cam video does not have sound.
WhatsApp cam video does not have sound.
Signal app cam video has sound.
Calls, call records, voice messages have sound.
Google assistant is working.
I am running 11.0.2.2 IN11DA. All issues are there in safe mode.
I cleaned all mics.
Please help.

Well, in my case (and I would bet that in yours too) it is the Google application. Once disabled everything returns to normal. I will have to do tests if it allows to use it by touching the microphone icon in the search bar, but activating the voice command OK Google makes the microphone not work in any other application.
