Well what I basically want to do is to make my phone say "out of network" or "User busy on another call" when someone specific calls me. There are plenty of apps out there on play-store to blacklist calls but what they basically do is that they cut the call with the caller listening a minor ring, means he comes to know that his calls is intentionally being ignored.. I also know there is trick of removing battery while phone is on but in this way I can loose my other important calls..!! I've come across an app in Intex Aqua series of mobiles named "Firewall". This app does what I want to do but when I tried to install this app on my Xperia SP it doesn't get installed might be there are proprietary restrictions. So does anybody knows a trick how to port that app for Xperia or could do this then it will be of great help.. Thanks
I used an app named advanced call manager on my previous Xperia Ray. In that you can block any number with reply to the caller like dialed number does not exist or out of coverage area etc.
Not sure if that app is still available for JB androids.
Here is the app about which I was talking. Please somebody here could port this app to make run on Xperia SP...!!!
So, I found the setting that reads to me who is calling.
So, for instance if Jesse Pinkman calls me, my phone will say "Jesse Pinkman" and then ring.
If it is not in my contact list, it will read the number.
But it only does it once.
I remember on some of my older phones, it would actually say who was calling, you would get the ring, say who was calling, get the ring, and repeat until VM picks up or I pick up.
I am looking for a way to do this again. If not available, is there an APP that will do this?
The reason I am doing this is because I have bluetooth on my helmet, and when I am riding I only want to pick up for certain callers.
On my phone, it is found under
Settings >> Accessibility>> Screen Reader>> Settings >>Read caller ID aloud
I simply did a search for "aloud" in Settings.
For anyone still looking for an answer: Samsung has made it difficult (on Oreo) to enable the function without the accessibility settings that call out every action you do. It has been integrated well in Pie under call settings. However, if you don't like Pie, like me, there's only one app that I found to actually do it very well. Its called Who's Calling. Get it from PlayStore. I have tested more than 20 apps and nothing does it better. I haven't even seen a single ad from it. Hope this saves someone time.
Cheers
Hi Devs,
Can some devs come together and work on a separate side-load-eable MI DIALER Port for AOSP roms and normal MIUI?
Something really similar to ANXCamera. Xiaomi and many other manufacturers have become really lazy by not providing region specific apps and clubbing all regions in their global apps together.
For example, countries like India, Indonesia other many other SEA countries do not have any legislations about declared call recording (in fact encouraged) but Xiaomi does not provide their very capable Mi Dialer anymore and instead bundles the pathetic Google Dialer.
Google in all it's self righteous glory declares calls are being recorded to both the parties when using it's Google Dialer, without an option to turn it off in countries where it's not mandated (talk about Google being richer than countries and setting it's own regulations).
This doesn't seem like a really difficult thing to do for a couple of capable developers giving it a couple of days and should really be a thing to be taken care of.
Regards,

I don't think any dev would be interested in doing so. For any reason you need call recording very badly, you can use custom MIUI ROMs like EU, MiMix, Hellas, etc. If that is not your cup of coffee, then use any third-party call recording apps made for AOSP ROMs.
Good luck!
You can flash NikGapps on vanilla aosp builds it's has modified AOSP dilaer which let you enjoy recording feature. beside, You can install module (root needed) to make it happen.
Would sepatare app for call rcording wouldn't work?

Doesn't work. Google has screwed something up where all the playstore apps are redundant. All are only at the mercy of the great Google for their announced call recording using the google-dialer.
Im currently using ACR but other party is very silent in comparison.recordin from within the dialer would be perfect.

Nice! good for rooted chaps. Having said that, there should be a way for the not so technically inclined. I personally, seriously have an aversion towards keeping the root level access to my phone open all the time. There should be something available for lesser mortals like me who choose not to root. Something similar to ANXCamera which just requires a simple flash.
People are underestimating the gravity of the current situation, this new wave of Chinese phones have only started giving these pathetic G-apps, instead of the apps they used to provide, people are having no options other than change phones/roms. I personally know a chap who sold off a brand new phone just because it had the Google Dialer and moved to a pathetic Samsung mid-ranger just for the call-recording functionality.

Samsung Galaxy S21 makes Google Messages app native, but there's a catch
Samsung Messages may still be the default on the new S21 lineup, but Google Messages is now a native app on Samsung's new phones.
www.cnet.com
Google Messages on the Samsung Galaxy S21 gets a new One UI-inspired design
Google has redesigned its Messages app on the Galaxy S21 to match Samsung's One UI style even more.

Well it's just about the Messages but Phone should follow next.

I used ACR but the sound is low
The best is Axet' Call Recorder module (magisk)

I'm using true phone dialer with inbuild call recorder and I can recommend the pro
True Phone Dialer & Contacts - Apps on Google Play
Powerful T9 phone and contact manager with dual SIM support and call recorder
play.google.com
Use any vanilla ROM that has call recorder and install gapps, but edit the script so that the aosp dialer is not replaced with Google's. Done.
MIUI Dialer is not only good for recording calls but the UI itself is the best. There is not a single dialer as of now that can beat MIUI dialer's UI and simplicity. If somebody can make it, it'd be great.
My Search Fu may not be the best, but I did try to find an answer. Is there any way to successfully record calls with the current release of Android (10 with One UI 2.5) on the Note9 without using root or changing CSC in regions where it is not enabled in the Samsung phone app?
Some people have used third-party call recording apps with the phone's speakerphone mode. Unfortunately, that is not an option in public, especially when dealing with something sensitive. It is incomprehensible that Google would remove functionality that is one of the most basic, most necessary ones for smartphone users. It is COMPLETELY LEGAL for me to record calls where I live. Allow me to do so.
Share your experience.
Thanks.
In India got updated today, strangely while phone ringing the caller ID or the caller number is not displaying.
clear data and force stop are your friend.
the camera quality is also affected i guess after this update, the t* coating acting so weird.
while making the call also the contact name and number is not displying.
The latest update is actually buggy. Camera is really affected with it mainly the quality as well as when the photo is clicked under the towards the light (T coating does not work). Apart from this, i also observed a difference in color ( dark brownish) in UI of some apps like Chrome Browser, Phone Dialer etc. And as mentioned on above, that the phone caller name does not display in some cases.
in UI of some apps like Chrome Browser, Phone Dialer etc
^ because of the material UI push.
and yes, this update ate T*
