Boldbeast Call Recorder Full Version Apk
Phyllis Sterlin
While all call recording software might seem similar on the surface, what app you decide to use can make a difference in terms of recording quality, recording features, and ease of use. This article will examine the differences between five free call recording apps so you can make an educated decision about which one to choose.
TapeACall is one of the easiest apps you can use to record a call and is available to iPhone and Android users in two ways: in a free version and in a paid version. The paid version will get you a ton of useful features and will allow you to tape new calls as well as calls that are in process.
iPadio is a free app that allows you to record your calls on the iPhone and (alternatively) broadcast them to the world. iPadio is easy to set up and use, and allows you to play your recordings back, as well as download, edit, or delete them. You can also share your recordings with another person or people. iPadio is only available on iPhone.
There are some Audio recording sources we can use while preparing the recording (docs here) , but sadly in each device it might be different. For some, VOICE_CALL works, and for some, others. But at least we can try...
On OnePlus 2 with Android 6.0.1, incoming calls can be recorded using VOICE_CALL, but I can't make outgoing calls be recorded there, unless I use MIC as audio source together with speaker turned on. Somehow, the app I've mentioned succeeds recording it without any issues. I'm sure I will see other issues with other Android devices, as I've tried to address this whole topic in the past. Update: I've found this sample project (also here), which for some reason sleeps for 2 seconds on the UI thread between prepare and start calls of the mediaRecorder. It works fine, and when I did something similar (wait using Handler.postDelayed for 1 second), it worked fine too. The comment that was written there is "Sometimes prepare takes some time to complete".
On Galaxy S7 with Android 8, I've failed to get sound of the other side for outgoing calls AND incoming calls (even with MIC and speaker), no matter what I did, yet the app I've mentioned worked fine.
To let you try my POC of call recording, I've published an open source github repository here, having a sample that will record a single call, and let you listen to the most recent one, if all works well.
aykuttasil - CallRecorder sample and axet - android-call-recorder sample - both, just like on my POC, don't have any tweaking except for AudioSource, and because of this they fails to record on some cases, such as OnePlus 2 output-audio of outgoing calls.
Most third party apps only offer the AudioSource tweaking, but some (like "boldbeast") do offer more. One example is "Automatic Call Recorder" which has "configuration" (10 values to choose from, first is "default") and "method" (5 vales to choose from, first is "default"). Those apps probably do not want others to understand what those configurations mean, so they put general names. Or, it's just too complicated for everyone (especially for users), so they generalize the names.
There is an API of "setMode" here, but it doesn't seem to change upon calling it. I was thinking of maybe change the "channel" of where the call is being used, this way, but it doesn't work. It stays on the value of "2" during call, which is MODE_IN_CALL.
There are customized parameters that are available for various devices (each OEM and its own parameters), which can be set here and maybe even via JNI (here and here) , but I don't get where to get this information from (meaning which pairs of key-value are available). I've searched in a lot of places, but couldn't find any website that talks about which possible parameters are available, and for which devices.
I was thinking of using AudioRecord instead of MediaRecorder class for recording, thinking that it's a bit low level, so it could give me more power and access to customized capabilities, but it seems to be very similar to MediaRecorder, and even use the same audio sources (example here).
Android P might have official way to record calls (read here and here). Testing on my Android P DP3 device (Pixel 2), I could record both sides fine in both incoming and outgoing calls, using "DEFAULT" as audio source, so maybe the API will finally be official and work on all Android versions. I wrote about it here and here.
I was thinking that maybe the Visualizer class could be a workaround of recording, but according to some StackOverflow post (here), the quality it extremely low, so I decided that maybe I shouldn't try it. Plus I couldn't find a sample of how to record from it.
As opposed to other similar questions about this topic, I'm not asking how to record calls. I already know it's a very problematic and complex problem. I already know I will have to address various configurations, and that I will probably use a server to store all of them and find there the best match for each one.
I spent many weeks working on a Voicecall Recording App so I faced all your issues/questions/problems.Moreover: my project had a low-priority so I didn't spent much time every day on it, so I worked on this App for many months while Android was changing under the hood (minor an major releases).
I was developing always on the same Galaxy Note 5 using its stock ROM (without Root) but I discovered that on the same device the behaviour was changing from one Android release to another without any explanation.For example from Nougat 7.0 to 7.1.2 I was unable to record a voicecall using the same code as before.
Google has enforced_or_changed restrictions about voicecall recording many times.At the beginning it was sufficient to use use VOICE_CALL AudioSource. Then manufactures has started to interprete this Value as they wanted, and the result was that one implementation was working well but another was not.Then Reflection was needed to run undocumented/hidden methods to start voicecall recording.Then Google has added a Runtime check, so calling them directly was not more possible even using Reflection.However this method lack of stability because it was not guarantee that a method was using the same name on all devices.
Then I started to reverse-engineer currently working Apps that were working on newer Android version and I discovered that them were using a complete different and more secure approach. This takes me many weeks because all these Apps uses JNI Libraries trying to hide this method between Assembler code.When I succesfully create a Test App which was recording well I tried the SAME code in many different devices and ROMs/Versions and surprisely it was working well.This means that all those different methods you can see in these App Settings (I'm 98% sure about it) are just "fake" or just refers to OLD methods not more used.
[8] Recording by MIC+speaker suffers of many issues: (1) the caller will hear all your ambient sound so the privacy-bug is a big issue (2) the echo is a big problem (3) the recording volume is very low as the quality of recordered voice
According to my tests, one way to improve this is to have an AccessibilityService being active (no need to write there anything at all) while choosing voice-recognition as the audio source. Also it's recommended to have the speaker turned on because this will record the audio from the microphone.
Please note these issues are not caused by the call recorder, actually they are caused by bugs in the ROM, or caused by the manufacturer intentionally. Why intentionally? many reasons, for example requirement from mobile operators, local laws, regulations etc. This is the reason why you tried more than 50 call recorders but no one worked.
We are very proud our innovated solutions have helped numberless android users to avoid rooting their phones to get good call recordings. Later some other call recorders "invented" the same solutions, but it seems they don't really know the details, as a result their record engines are not reliable, you will find "sometimes in the recording the caller's voice is weak". However this app works great, the record engine is very reliable, recorded calls are loud and clear in both sides.
Once again, for the first time in the world, we invented the new solution to perfectly record calls without root for Galaxy S9 in all countries (both Snapdragon 845 and Exynos 9810 chipsets are supported), please update Boldbeast Recorder to V11.1 or a newer version.
The app published here works exactly the same as the one published in Google Play, except that the former can save telephone numbers and contact names with recordings but the latter can't. Why? Please see [007] in the troubleshooting page to know the reason.
No matter you buy it from Google Play, PayPal or other channels, no matter you buy it directly from your phone or buy it on this web page, you can restore the register code you bought to your phone after paying. The register code is a lifetime license, a device only need to buy once.
After paying the register code will be generated within several minutes. Please open the app in your phone, click the Restore button in the "About" screen to get the register code, the app becomes the PRO version at once.
