These settings with "Start Input Stream: On" result in very "metallic" distorted voice, both on my and other side. Are there any settings that result in better sound quality of call recording?

I'm running on official build MMB29P (Android 6.0.1), phone model: LG-H790 (32GB).

If you disable "Start Input Stream", and try to change "Tune Audio Route" to Group1 or Group2, how about it?

hey sir, i found out another solution without the new version

- Record Mode: Alsa
- Tune Audio Effect: Yes
- Tune Audio Route: Group2 <<!!! important
- Change Audio Controls: Yes
- Change Audio Driver: No
- Start Input Stream: Yes

Last but not least!!!!!
the phone setting > display language must use English(US)

hope it is helpful! :)

16

Changing "Tune Audio Route" doesn't help.
"Display language" is not related to the problem.

17

A user said,

- when he called a friend, the recording was perfect in two directions.
- when he called the customer service number of the operator, in the recording the sound of the other end is distorted.

The reason is, the sound from his friend was normal, the sound from the automatic answer-machine of the customer service was too loud. So please note these situations when you are testing.

18

Another method is turn off the data(internet) , only use 2G network.... it is because 5x not support volte..
I hope admin can modify this problem first.....THX

19

Turning on/off data has nothing to do with the problem.

I tried first and second setting on my H791 - rooted 6.0.1 MHC19J - but without success

Only need to install Boldbeast Recorder, then use suggested settings to record calls. No other apps needed.

Boldbeast Recorder is far more powerful than any other recorders in the market, it has many options to fix recording problems.

There are more than 10000 Android phone models in the market, we know what settings can fix recording problems in some phones, but don't know for other phones. You can test different settings in the app and find the solution for your phone. Users using the same phone will be happy if you share your solution here.

If needed you can click the "Call Settings - Fix Recording Issues - Ask New Parameters" item in Boldbeast Recorder to send hardware log files to us, let us help finding the solution, for any phone model.

22

Hmm... I've just confirmed that my phone is rooted, but I can't select Alsa mode. It's greyed out.

Any ideas?

23

Please click the "Enable Rooted Options" in Boldbeast Recorder, then you'll see the Alsa Mode is available.
