Are there any recent Android models that have native call recording enabled in EU?

I will root the phone if necessary, but considering that Google is closing the platform down even more by making custom/rooted ROMs fail security checks, I would prefer to avoid that.

SamFW is for Samsung phones, right?

What is the native call recorder like? Does it have an option to record all calls automatically? Is it silent to the other party?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I forgot to say... Samsung only! It's a basic recorder, records automatically, no audible notification as far as I'm aware (that might depend on the CSC code you use and legal requirements of that country). Playback is from within the recent calls list.

Is it easy to copy all the files off the phone?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They're just files saved to some location on the phone. So it's as easy as copying or transferring any file.

Do you remember if it's a location accessible by all apps with permission, or a location private to the recording app?

I've seen both in recording apps.

Good question... Accessible to all apps so you can copy, move, sync.

Thanks for all the information.

It looks like Samsung with SamFW and CSC change is a viable option without rooting.

My pleasure, let us know how you get on.

My S21 FE has automatic call recording natively, you only have to go to the settings and enable it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That's probably because you're in a country whose CSC code allows recording.

Which country/CSC are you in? India?
