[MOD][ROOT] GAppsMod (ex GoogleDialerMod)

Sorry my bad- recording. Screening has always worked for me as I'm on GFi

Uhm I'm trying my best but this is the first time anyone reports that call recording only works from a locked screen. I suggest you try clearing the dialer data and see if that changes anything.

Hey I'm on derpfest A13 on Nord 2 5G....call screen works perfectly but only after i open the diler mod app once each time after reboot....You said that i could just do it once and even delete the app after that ..can someone please help me out...also you list all the flag changes i need to make to get call screen working(so that i can try by editing XML and see if that permenent)

Are you aware that the app keeps promoting to update even though I am on latest version from GitHub.

I had the same issue. Even though the version was the same, I decided to download it again from GT, and reinstall. After this I did not anymore get the toast message claiming a new version was available...
Give it a try...

 

[Lantush]

bro, is there any way to disable the black line in the status bar during a call?

 

[Bxperiaz3]

Is anything new enabled with v2.0? Hold for me or direct my call?

I was successful in reverting to v94.0.490096008 version of Google Phone to avoid call recording announcements. Putting the steps here in case anyone else is looking to do the same. Root + Xposed are required.


If you are on some version newer than v94.0.490096008:
0. Install CorePatch or Let Me Downgrade xposed module to allow for app downgrade.
1. to 8. as below.

If you are on some version older than v94.0.490096008:
1. Disable auto-updates for the Google Phone app in the Play Store.
2. Install Aurora Store. Install method that I'm using is AM Installer.
3. Choose both Aurora Store and Play Store in the UpdateLocker module scope in the LSPosed app.
4. Search for Google Dialer or Phone by Google and open it.
5. Click on the Three-dot menu in upper right corner and choose Manual download.
6. Type in the version code 10681248.
7. Press Check.
8. The selected version will be downloaded and installed. Profit.

I am having a new problem. The mod doesn't stay enabled.

I was able to restore call recording functionality by uninstalling the latest google dialer via the play store and manually installing v94.0.490096008. I enabled just the call recording mod and not the silence mod, and force stopped the phone app. I then repeated the process with the silence mod, and now have both working.

That being said, the second I restart my phone, I have to re-enable the mod several times in order to restore the recording functionality. Perhaps there is a way the developer could institute an on-boot check / correction?

This should not happen. GoogleDialerMod overwrite flags in the "FlagOverrides" table in the Google Play Services Phenotype DB. I expect that table is never touched by either Android or Google, and therefore the mods should be permanent.

I am also facing the same problem with an otherwise perfect mod…Is there anything i can cheak or do in my device…does this mod work by changing build config ….if yes can you tell which configs to change to see if it remains permenent in that way….also has anyone succeded in figureing out how to get hold/direct working(without market unlocking)

Could you tell me if you find the switches in the Suggested Mods tab turned off when the mods stop working?

No they are on even after restart

No they are on even after restart

So the mods are correctly applied to the phenotype DB. I suggest to clear the Dialer- app data and try again.

Just opening GoogleDialerMod does absolutely nothing. Are you sure it's not enough to wait a few minutes after reboot or close and reopen the Dialer a couple of times?

Hello, I am a user usually on the OP9 section, but coming here because I have been using google dialer for call screening for years via props spoofing as a pixel device.

It seems google has finally found a way to break that. I have tried the mod and it doesnt work for me (yet).

hello. i used this to finally get my dialer to work. on a ROM that came with 96 as base so it never worked. this let me downgrade, thank you.


my only question is with Update locker, you say to add aurora store and google play (which the app also recommends by default on enabling) but the phone app still showed up to update . i have manual installation on so i can avoid it, but shouldnt phone be added to that app as well?

and if that works, why add aurora store and google play? apps still update on Google ply with it if they are the only 2 picked.

i guess im looking for someone to explain this to me like i am 5.


cheers!

 

[iamMG]

shouldnt phone be added to that app as well?

I too don't know that. I have added a question on its thread. Haven't received reply yet.

Edit: I did receieve a reply. Here it is.

I downgraded my Dialer app to v94 and recording works perfectly until reboot as well. However, it's because the version of my Dialer app somehow reverts to v96 after a reboot. If I reinstall v94 again, then call recording works. Is there some reason the downgrade might not stick?

You can use a Magisk module to block the latest update.
My question is, "How did you get call recording to work?" "What settings did you enable?"

Yeah, I use Core Patch to allow downgrades and UpdateLocker to block updates, but the blocking updates part doesn't work through reboots for some reason. I assumed it had something to do with it being a system app being downgraded below what the phone comes with out of the factory, but I thought there must be some way to override that.

I use GoogleDialerMod to enable call recording. That works just fine regardless, it's just disabling the "This call is being recorded." announcement that requires the earlier version.
