          @Br1 Okay, and unfortunately for you. I didn't understand why you got OTA-2 and not OTA-3. I will wait for a future feedback about the DNS change on OTA-3, because your procedure has become essential to me, more than VPN on UT ultimately.

              OTA 3 Stable channel --- You can reinstall, no changes are necessary.

                @Br1 Doesn't work for me on Volla. MyRec is empty after a call.

                  @domubpkm it's the same with my pixel 3a xl (fresh install) and I'm tryin' to understand why.
                  There are other things that don’t work ... you have made a fresh install or update from xenial ?

                    @Br1 A full first focal fresh install with the installer (with wipe data). For DNS, it's work well.

                    The focal call recorder would already have been useful to me. πŸ™‚

                      @domubpkm new version ota 3 here fresh install involves to reset some permissions and to create few directories ... however I can't guarantee it will work with all devices.

                        @Br1 Will try on my Volla. thanks very much. What do you mean by your comment ? Is it the same procedure ? Nothing dangerous to install or new things to do before installing ?

                          Yes

                            @Br1 Seems ok on Volla :

                            Edit nov 24 : Confirms that it works fine. The only point to improve if feasible is the quality/sharpness of sound recording in speaker mode.

                                  @Br1 while this conversation appears to revolve around technical aspects, I would like to also point out, that as UT lovers we appreciate privacy, which is not only ours, but also of others. This is not only a moral consideration, but in certain countries also reflected by the laws. Violation of confidentiality of the word, by (1) recording non public conversations without consent and (2) making available to others such records. Technical feasibility versus legitimacy or legacy do not necessarily go hand in hand.

                                    @mschmids If you listen again to what they said to you, you have not committed any crime.
                                    However I invite everyone to comply fully with any laws or regulations in their own Country.

                                      @Br1 in certain countries already recording non public conversations without consent is a crime. If you listen just yourself to the recording, it will most probably remain unnoticed though. No plaintiff, no judge. The fact remains.

                                      A visits B at home. They talk over a warm drink. B records the conversation unnoticed on the cell phone. C has access to this cell phone, finds the recording file and posts it on the Internet.

                                      B is liable to prosecution under Section Β§201 (1) no. 1 StGB, because of recording the private conversation without consent. C is liable to prosecution under Section Β§201 (1) no. 2 StGB, because of making the recording accessible to third parties.

                                        @mschmids as you can see here in many countries recording is allowed, anyway :

                                        DISCLAIMER

                                        Before using these scripts make sure that in your country is allowed to record phone calls without consent from the other side, I do not take any responsibility for consequences deriving for the misuse of these scripts.

                                            Hello @mschmids ,

                                            In my country it is legal and accepted as evidence.
                                            I love privacy. But I will give you some use cases.

                                            1. Your boss threatens you.
                                            2. Your partner threatens you.
                                            3. You are bullied
                                            4. Anonymous threats
                                            5. Signing contracts over the phone for electricity, gas, phone, internet....

                                            Thanks, good work @Br1 πŸ™‚

                                              @Bolly I say a big thank you to @Br1 too and above all a great usefulness of the feature (widely used on Android too) in administrative acts (often poorly executed, repetitive) by telephone : I have no objection to being recorded and this must therefore be do it both direction.
