Does anyone else have problems recording voice calls on LINE? For some reason, it usually doesn't record audio of my LINE conversations. Even though it says it's recording, the time will be stuck and not move. And even when I end the LINE call and start a call on another app, the recording still won't resume. I haven't been able to figure it out. I think only like 2 out of 10 times will this app record my LINE conversations.

I got this e-mail today and immediately thought of this app. Here's hoping it applies here! 😁

Hello, does this app still works? When i click grant root access it says: [-2]cannot get root access. You should root your phone at first... i already granted permission to magisk when first time clicked that button, now when i click that same button every time, it just be that loading circle, then that message pops up. Using rooted LG H930 android 8.0 with hiden latest magisk 24.1 with Zygisk on (mentioning this as from very recently using that new version of magisk and Zygisk thing in case if that affects in this app to not work, as i see for this guy on yt working grant magisk for this app):


Thx in advance!

Unfortunately, it's a proprietary, closed source app, so no.
Such a shame, this app is only one i ever found that can record discord vc without using Craig bot(which everyone on yt use that for recording on android), or not just for discord, but in general one and only app of its kind to enable you to record any VoIP on any app on phone(compared to ACR cube app or similar ones, which are limited to recording just in popular apps), developer just need to make this app works on newest magisk 24.1, it's frustrating that i have app on my lg v30 android 8.0 and can't use it cause it says like my device isn't rooted, when i actually granted permission in magisk and all, if there's way to just make it works or any other app or solution, can't get in contact with developer at all...

Perhaps @boldbeast would be willing to make it open source so that the community can continue maintaining it if he is no longer interested?

I will try to use older version of magisk as i really wish to have this app works, and i see that new versions of magisk are kinda worse, less supporting apps which works on previous versions, i don't see much benefits of having newer versions of magisk when i think about it. Hope downgrading it won't cause any issue with my root

I don't know why, but i still getting same error when i try to grant root access to voip recorder even with magisk version 21.4, as for this guy from yt worked with that version of magisk (you can clearly see version on 2:48):
i wasn't wiping phone or hard reseting it (i want to try avoid that whole process if possible, but i have full backup of phone on pc just in case), but was doing full uninstall option from magisk app itself, then was through usb and command window on pc rebooting bootloader and flashing twrp recovery again, in which was entering later on to flash zip file of magisk 21.4, but still no use. I don't know if it doesn't work because i need to try even more old versions of magisk, or because i'm forced to wiping out whole phone if something remained in system that indicates other apps on new version of magisk even if i fully uninstalled it and flashed old ones through twrp. It would be useful if someone knows what is last version of magisk that voip recorder support, or any other solution to this(android 8 lg h930ds)


Update: i FINALLY managed to make app actually works, i was using this site, downloading all versions of xapk through lucky patcher, and found out that latest version that works with my device is 1.7 (all tried on magisk 20.4, but now i realising that maybe isn't about magisk version, but actually about app version, for some reason 1.7 works while newer versions of app doesn't), now will trying same version of app on newer versions of magisk, this is site: https://apkpure.com/voip-recorder-screen-recorder/com.boldbeast.voiprecorder/versions


2nd update: it's about BOTH magisk version and app version, i tried all combinations of versions of both, and discovered that latest versions combo that makes app work on my device are magisk v20.4 and voip recorder v1.7, i will try using that older version of magisk for a while and see if anything will miss compared to later versions(except design as i see that literally right next version of magisk is todays look, while my version is last one with older look with black and sliding menu, but i don't mind that at all, i have to see if magisk hide works), maybe for every device is different combo of versions of app and magisk? You should all try more combinations in order to make it works.

Lg H930DS with stock EU version of software, android 8.0
So far by using this app i'm very satisfied and happy how good this app is, it's underrated in my opinion, i was doing some tests, and in same recording can capture all sound no matter if played media sound or phone call sound from any app, no matter if switching between earpiece, speakers and headphones, and all combinations between them, app capture literally everything(didn't try yet with sound off of media, while smallest sound for phone call capture and make loud actually), those people who complaining about this app can try find anything else that can capture, which is impossible(talking about phone devices, don't compare with pc/laptop), that is not app cube acr, as that one capture just sound from popular apps like whatsapp, fb messenger etc, but can't from ANY app, like this one which helpped me capture for discord vc, zoom and skype meeting without need to use their recording feature which notify others that is someone recording.
Getting back on magisk 20.4 is best thing i could do, some other apps now works that didn't with new version of magisk(like es file explorer pro root explorer option), hope this helps

Edit: my only complainment is for developer making app not works for some reason with newer versions of it(as i'm using 1.7) on my same device with same android version, and same magisk version, if i would try to download 1.9, 2.0, 2.2 , they don't work
Also if developer left this project, maybe to make it open source pls @boldbeast ?

    Android VoIP Call Recording - Record video calls and voice calls from VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Viber, Facebook Messenger, Google Voice, Google Hangouts, Google Duo, Line, WeChat, Skype, magicApp, Signal etc, is a feature many Android users are waiting for. But for so many years you still can't enjoy the feature, even if your Android phones are more and more powerful, even if you have rooted your phone.

    Several recorders said they can record VoIP calls, but actually they can't. Why? Because Android allows only one app to use the microphone. As a result,
    • If the VoIP app (WhatsApp, Skype etc) is using the microphone, the recorder fails to start recording.
    • If the recorder is using the microphone, the caller can't hear your voice during the call because the VoIP app (WhatsApp, Skype etc) is denied to use the microphone.
    For this reason all call recorders and all screen recorders can't record VoIP calls. You can test and confirm the fact yourself.

    Boldbeast VoIP Call Recorder
    This app adds the VoIP Call Recording feature to your phone. It uses the microphone in a shared manner, so it can record VoIP calls successfully on all Android phones.
    • Record video calls and voice calls from VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Skype etc. Actually all VoIP apps on the market are supported.
    • Capture game playing, video playing, music playing, app using etc. Recordings can be saved as video+audio files or pure audio files. Audio is loseless because the data is copied directly from the system internal.
    • Audio can be saved in stereo or in mono.
    • Save all recordings locally in your phone memory or in the external SD card, so they are available at once after recording is ended.
    • Manage recordings, play back, rename, delete, share etc.

    Requirement
    • Android 5.0 up.
    • Root needed.

    Installation
    • Install the app from Google Play: Android VoIP Call Recorder
    • In the app tap "Root > Grant Root Access" to grant root access to this app.
    • On the screen you'll see the folder name in which the CallRecordingFix module is saved. Please use Magisk Manager to install the CallRecordingFix module from the folder.
    • Power off then power on the phone.
    Now you can enjoy the new VoIP call recording feature on your Android phone.

    Start / Stop / Pause / Resume Recording
    When a VoIP call comes, the VoIP app (WhatsApp, Skype etc) doesn't notify this app, so this app can't start recording automatically because it doesn't know the event. You should tap the record button on the notification or on the float view to start recording. When the call is ended, this app doesn't know the event either, so you should tap the stop button to stop recording. During recording you can pause and resume recording if you want.

    Feedback
    The app has just been released. Feedback, bug reports are welcomed.

    Ok, the problem was solved after i made a call as other member mentioned before. But the problem I have now is that after having installed the module through magisk, when i open the app it says the module is not installed, but in magisk shows up as installed.
    Thanks to AloneDevils for sending log files to me. I checked his log files, and found a minor bug that made the problem.
    I have just released the new version of Boldbeast VoIP Recorder V1.2 in Google Play, the problem has been fixed. Please
    - update the app in your phone to V1.2.
    - tap "Root > Check CallRecordingFix" to generate the new CallRecordingFix module.
    - use Magisk Manager to install the new CallRecordingFix module.
    - reboot the phone.
    Now it should work. In Magisk Manager please confirm the module is V2004.

    Google Play may need time to publish the new version, so please wait a while if needed.

    I DO installed the fix module through magisk,but when I check callrecordingfix in this app,it keep saying “you have not installed the call recording fix module yet". Please help. My device are pixel 2xl and pixel 3axl with Android 10 rooted via magisk.
    Another user met the same problem on his Pixel 3a XL Android 10 phone, and he sent log files to me.
    I'm checking the log files at this moment. It seems a file in CallRecordingFix is not executed when Magisk starts up. I'll fix it soon.
