Question March update: disabling system apps
- Thread starter lackalil
- Start date
I am still able to downgrade my phone app. You could probably download a older version of the app using this website or you might have already downgraded it.
Yeah, I had an .apk from there already but I can't install it over the top. It just says "failed" or "cannot install". There's a disable button in settings/apps but it's greyed out. I can do it with other system apps like Calculator and Calendar but not with Phone. I even had to reflash for an unrelated reason and it's still the same.
I did manage to get BCR working so it's ok-ish for now (BCR doesn't like the canary build of Magisk apparently). It's just that I wanted to use GoogleDiallerMod call recording without the recording notice. That needs a Phone version from December 2022.

that is odd... maybe it truely was removed in that update because im on december 2022 update and i have the unisntall updates for my phone app.
I guess you could find a work around if you rooted your device but I am not sure what the risks are for messing with the phone app on root

In settings-Apps-Phone, do you have the 3 dot menu in the top left? I still have it after the March update and it provides the "uninstall updates" option. I attached a screenshot

Ah! That's it. Problem solved. It used to always be the middle button but I guess they moved it up there. Cheers buddy
Also, for anyone looking for a call recorder, BCR works flawlessly. I've had bad experiences with a bunch of different apps/modules and this is the best by far. Only downside is it records every call (no switch). Compression is really good with the standard codec though and you can set it to delete after X days
