Hey all, I use Total Recall app exclusively on Android phones and so far, every single phone I've had from low, to mid-range, to flagships, all worked fine... that is until I got this phone. Another reason I don't use it for my main line. I've tried all the different options with the exception of the root option since root isn't currently attainable (easily) but none worked. Anyone have any other call recorder app suggestions that they've used and actually works? I don't plan on wasting my time trying other apps since root appears to be coming in the near future (hopefully). However, if anyone else has been using a call recorder app that works, I don't mind trying that particular app. TIA!

See this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/help/recording-phone-calls-t3663319/page2

Total Recall has not yet been updated with support for the Essential Phone, but it should be coming shortly. That's my understanding from the devs at Killer Mobile. In the meantime, Skvalex's Call Recorder has been working just fine for me.

Edited to add: Here's a link to the Skvalex call recorder on the Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.skvalex.cr
Wow this app works great and one time charge. Probably going to switch over to this app. Thanks for the rec!

FWIW, Total Recall was just updated today to version 2.0.61, with a new recording method called "Native X". I have tested and can confirm that this new method successfully captures both sides of a call, loud and clear.
