Call recording or "call recorder" in most modern smartphones (and tablets) is a standard function. Since manufacturers have long believed that users, using their smartphones, have every right to record their conversations with anyone.
And judging by the reviews of the owners of these undoubtedly interesting smartphones, this unexpected fact is somewhat surprising. To put it mildly.
Of course, the problem can be easily eliminated by installing a mobile application with suitable functionality, of which, fortunately, there are now an abundance of them.
But, as it turned out, only for the time being. Since third-party software records calls correctly. But over time, it overloads the system, from which the smartphone starts to slow down noticeably, which is not good. Plus, the different overlays and notification sounds that regularly “wedge” into the conversation are also annoying.
In this regard, having puzzled about finding an alternative and more effective solution to the issue, on the xda-developers forum we found one interesting and even elegant solution. It was developed and proposed by a reputable XDA regular known there under the nickname Blackball.
The solution looks like a regular mod, which actually adds the call recording function to the standard functionality of Huawei P10 and P10 Plus smartphones. Fashion, not an app. Therefore, its installation assumes the presence of TWRP, a ZIP file with this mod itself, and of the P10 / P10 Plus itself.
In general, if on your P10 / P10 Plus you also want to enable call recording without installing third-party applications, then this is done as follows:
- swing zip HuaweiCallRecorder and save it in the smartphone's memory so that it is not lost;
- turn off the smartphone;
- reboot in recovery mode (press and hold the volume up and power buttons at the same time until the Huawei logo appears on the screen);
- in TWRP, click Install;
- specify the folder where our zip file with the mod is saved;
- swipe on the button at the bottom of the screen and start the installation procedure;
- after its completion, we return to the main TWRP menu, click System and Reboot there.
After restarting the smartphone, the “Record” button will appear in the standard application of the P10 / P10 Plus phone. We tap it - the recording of the conversation begins. After the call ends, the audio file is automatically saved in the internal memory of the smartphone.
Call recording can be customized. In particular, activate the option of automatic recording of conversations. The settings menu is located in the main menu of the "Phone" application (3 dots in the corner of the screen).
And for general development:
Don't know how on your smartphone or tablet make it so that when you call, a choice of SIM cards is offered? In this article, you will learn how to set up on Huawei so that when they called it was possible to choose sim 1 or sim 2, or make it so that when you call the call goes only from the selected sim card. Perhaps the instructions for setting up SIM cards for calling Huawei P10 Plus will work with other android devices as well.
So that when calling from Huawei to Android, the choice of a SIM card is offered or to set up one of the two SIM cards, do the following: Open "Settings" on the phone, then select "SIM card settings" in the menu that opens. Now in the window that opens, click on "Calls by default" and select "Always ask" (or something similar), if you need calls from a specific SIM card, then select the desired SIM card.
On some tablets and smartphones for android, so that there is a choice of a SIM card when making a call, such as Samsung, do this: Open "Settings" on Android, select the item "SIM-card manager, then" Voice call "and" Always ask. " If you wish, you can choose from two SIM cards, one with which the call will be made.

thanks for the article. how clear everything was in the samsung galaxy 1 gi. so incomprehensible in HONOR 7 A PRO. bought it on July 2 and until today I understand and can not call. in the SIM card settings, both cards are displayed with their numbers. below the line- DATA TRANSFER and there is a circle in front of this line under one of the SIM cards. Where to actually PUT this circle is unclear. Further below is the line-CALLS BY DEFAULT. Click on the calls. A table with three values comes out 1) not set 2) sim 1.3) sim 2. the problem is worth one circle and it must be placed opposite these three designations, but opposite which one is not clear. The next and next point is READRISATION. Here's a picture. What to do and how to make calls and send SMS is unknown. Constantly one card is blocked. If you can send instructions. Thank you in advance. Respectfully Gusev

Good afternoon. help me please return the SIM card request window when making a call. In the settings it is necessary to "always ask", but the call is made from the same SIM. Before that, when I called, I accidentally pressed the checkmark, and the calls go with only one SIM, although in the settings you should always ask. Help return the query box

Four easy ways to change the standard ringtone to your favorite track or set a separate ringtone for specific contacts.
Usually the standard set of melodies on mobile devices is very limited, moreover, most of the presented sounds may seem not very interesting and even annoying. Each of us observed a situation when the phone rings in the room, and several people start looking for a gadget at once, thinking that the call is meant for them. Of course, you don't want to find yourself in such a situation - after all, it is not very comfortable to turn out all your pockets or your bag to find that they are not calling you at all.
Changing the default melody to your favorite song is easy, but inexperienced users may experience some difficulties. We will tell you about several ways to replace the ringtone sound and set a separate melody for certain contacts.
Our smartphone uses the Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system and EMUI 5 proprietary firmware.
Ringtone for Huawei (EMIU 5)?
1. To change the ringtone on a Huawei smartphone with EMIU 5 firmware, go to the settings menu and select "Sound".
2. Go to the section "Call melody SIM 1 / SIM 2" (if your device is designed for two SIM cards). After selecting the appropriate card, a window pops up with the tabs "Melody" and "Music".
3. In the list, select the desired melody or song, put a circle in front of it and click on the checkmark in the upper right corner.

You can put a ringtone on a Huawei smartphone using the native player.
1. Open the standard player, in our case this is the "Music" application. We go into the "Local" or "Recent" folder.
2. Select the desired track and click on the menu (three dots next to the name of the song).
3. Click on the item "Setting the melody".
4. Here again we select where we want to set the melody: for calls from SIM 1, SIM 2, notifications or an alarm clock.
File manager
1. Launch the file manager, in our case it is the "Files" application. Go to the "Audio" section or the music folder.
2. Find the desired track, click on it and hold it.
3. In the window that appears, click on the "Install as" item.
4. The options appear again: a melody for SIM 1, SIM 2 or notifications, from which we select the desired one.
How to put music on a call to a separate contact?
1. Open the "Contacts" application.
2. We go to the page of the subscriber we need.
3. Click on the "Call melody" item, select the track and click on the checkmark.
So, we looked at a few simple ways to set a ringtone on a Huawei smartphone. These methods do not require any special skills or root rights on the device. We hope that now you will enjoy using your smartphone even more.
