Hello all!
As we know from S20 and S21 threads, the only eonly viable option to enable clear call recording is to flash XID, Indonesia firmware on our Exynos smartphones. This year the XID version is Snapdragon, so it won''t be a good decision to flash software meant from another hardware.
Is there any other region with native call recording and Exynos so we can flash that firmware instead? None of the call recording works if not enabled from the firmware as well since you will only hear you talking.
Thanks in advance!
Samsung announced that the new S22 will have 5 yeasr software updates, thanks to the new policy to reduce the number of firmwares for the different countries

SD Native call recording & CSC (without rooting)

I'll be happy if you let me know if it works, I'm considering exchanging S22ultra for S22.
You can change CSC to SEK (Ukraine). It has native call recording function. but you can't use Samsung Pay.
Can SEK firmware be flashed directly to the device without SAMkey? When XID was on Exynos I could flash directly since my terminal is not branded.
No, change possible only via Samkey, because both regions present in one Europe FW.

Enabling Native Call Recorder through CSC
Hello, Thanks to this XDA thread and some other sources I was able to compile a list of CSC codes that enable native call recording on Samsung ROMs. This is the list: Indonesia (XID) Vietnam (XXV) Ukraine (SEK) Israel (ILO) India (INS) Thailand...
forum.xda-developers.com
I recommend using the autoSync app for automatic backup of recordings. Works very well
i understand that CSC cannot be changed to Ukraine since both regions use same FW and multi CSC file. But will it work if i simply buy ukranian sim card off of ebay and put in phone? will phone change CSC from EUX to SEK then?
I read, if you change CSC to SEK, Samsung Health not work properly.
(Or Samsung Pay? And credits on Samkey a little bit expensive.
I lost the guarantee, when i change the CSC?)
Call Recorder - Cube ACR app seems to be work, but the caller voice is very weak
Hi,
If you change CSC to SEK, will wipe all data?
If YES, is there a posibility to write HOME_CSC only, instead of CSC?

Hi! I would like to change the firmware for SM-F926B to have call recording and to unlock ESIM. My current phone is registered to region Mexico. Any information on the process will help.
Thanks!
Hi Put up the indonesia XID rom Odin, and it works.
Israel (ILO) roms have call recording enabled and support for dual sim + esim.
Can you just Flash with another country ROM like before? I don't think it will work by just flashing. I have SM-F9260 I would like to have the Native call recording too.
Hi all,
I purchased an A52s 5G (SM-A528B/DS, snapdragon version) last week. I never had a Samsung before so I’m learning now about CSC and such.
I noticed that I don’t have the call recording function even though my country should support it (ILO). As it turns out the device has XSG CSC (I guess it’s a non-official parallel import).
I gathered information around the forums and I’m trying to understand if I can change the CSC by factory reseting and doing the device setup while my ILO SIM card is installed.
Apologies if my questions are stupid and the answer is obvious, but I couldn’t piece it together.
I’m trying to avoid tripping Knox to retain my warranty.
I read somewhere that ILO and XSG are part of the same multi-CSC group (OJM) and that it should work?
I read somewhere else that it no longer works on One UI 3.1/Android 11 versions?
I read somewhere else again that samkey may be a viable solution?
So should I try just by factory resetting the phone? Or try samkey? Or?
Is there any way to change CSC on the fly and avoid having to factory reset the device?
Thanks so much in advance,
Tal
I used to require a SIM to change the CSC but was able to do without it this time.
Doesn't trip Knox. There's a list of countries that details which have call recording built in.

To anyone who might encounter this in the future, My phone was bought trough GoMobile a parallel importer in Israel who didn't have call recordings available although the official one had.
I used SAMKEY in order to change the CSC into "ILO" the Israeli CSC and it worked getting me back the recordings and even had gotten OTA's after it.
I bought an A52s 5G on Amazon UK, and the model that arrived was a Romanian one. I find two things very odd: there is nothing outside the box to indicate that the device is not a UK one (product code would suffice), and when opening the box (which was untampered, as expected) it had a UK plug charger, adding to the fact that the device was destined for the UK market. The back of the device shows a sign for compliance with UK CA standards, and booting it first time, it greeted me in English. However, soon after I figured out the shortcomings and I found that CSC is set to ROM. Factory resetting the phone with a UK sim didn't make much difference however this time the phone greeted me in Romanian. While I've resolved the issue with.. the usual method, I find it dodgy and either the seller went to great lengths to hide the originating country or Samsung is creating these devices targetting Romania but actually making them look British, for.. reasons? Both possibilities are weird.

did you succeed? do you have call recording?
For some reason I've never been able to buy a Samsung that used a single sku CSC.
Even with ICCID locked devices they always shipped with the multi-csc/multi-csc2, so I've always been able to use a SIM Card to change out carriers unless the EFS/CSC partitions blocked it partially.
And even in those couple cases, I've always been able to cross-flash carrier firmware for that device to switch networks when need be.
This method even allowed me to use my AT&T locked Galaxy Note5 with T-Mobile Firmware. The only bug was the AT&T Modem's lack of hardware support for all of the TMO network bands.
Other than that. I even bested the Geek Squad at Best Buy...
This method worked on my A32x 5G.
Hei. I own SM-G990B which is snapdragon (european one). I see in Izrael and Asian countrys where call recorder is included in dialer we can find SM-G990E. Is anyway to use two ways recording without root on SM-G990B?

With S21 FE (SM-G990B) at the moment it is not possible to change CSC to SEK ... how did you do it? what model do you have of S21 FE?
What do you mean by not possible ? Samkey is not supporting February patch ?
I have G990B without any problems changed via Samkey
Mine is not upgraded to SEK and SAMKEY tells me it can't currently ... my EUX source CSC. From EUX it is not possible ... it always gives me an error even if just restored as factory.
since v4.27.7 G990B is supported. Try downgrade to version G990BXXU1BUL5

...Nothing to do .. CSC does not change ... I'm downloading the first version: G990BXXU1BUK5 and then I refer.
Nothing ... not even with the first firmware version !!! Maybe yours is a particular model (northern Europe area or similar) ... my ITALY
Can anyone else try and then indicate which model exactly it has?
In the EU it isn't legal for OEM's to sell phones with a native call recording feature.
With Huawei phones sold in EU you can install the native call recorder apk from a region where they have this feature and problem solved.
Can we do the same with Samsung phones, or do we need to flash a CSC from a region that has that feature?
PS: I know some 3rd party apps can do the same but I want to use the native app that Samsung.
So I managed to do it but it requires flashing files with Odin (but it doesn't trigger knox):
1- My Galaxy A52s had the ROM A528BXXS1BVC2 from PHE region
2- I downloaded with Frija the same ROM A528BXXS1BVC2 (very important) but from a region with call recorder enabled (I chose XID from Indonesia)
3- I flashed with Odin only the HOME_CSC file in the CSC file option (I didn't flash anything else)
Flashed successfully and call recording now appears in the Phone app settings. No factory reset needed
CONS:
I'm getting some notifications from app Samsung Gifts Indonesia (but the app can be disabled)
I get an additional Samsung Pay app, which is a different version than the one I had already before

In my country, Sweden, call recording is fully legal. In a phone call it is sufficient that only one of the participants (the caller) is aware of that the call is being recorded. To record a phone call without the knowledge of any of the participants is illegal unless it is done by the police and even they have to have special permit by a state attorney.
Even though this is the case all phone makers chose to block call recording for phones sold in Sweden. I have never been able to get an answer as to why they do this.
For my previous phone, Oneplus 8, there was a simple hack you could do in the caller app to enable call recording. Problem was that as time went by and newer firmware arrived the blocking of the call recording was restored faster and faster.
I now rely on an Olympus pocket recorder when I must record a phone call. Sometimes as you talk to company reps or officials it is very handy to record their statements since this is permitted as evidence in our courts of law.
I don't understand why you don't use call recording apps instead of changing the CSC,
There are many modified and cracked apps that allow you to record calls such as
Cube ACR
Automatic Call Recorder
Call Recorder - ACR
Arobase40 said:
To my knowledge call recording or recording with any recording device is illegal unless the other participant knows and accepts this recording or unless you keep it for yourself as a private archive (even in that case don't think it is legal but if nobody knows... ^^) and you are not allowed to use this recording in a civil procedure and as Sweden is part of E.U there is no exception !
The term "participant" may have a totally different meaning in real life than in the judicial setting !!!

In some European countries (such as France) the production of recordings (or pictures) can be accepted in a penal procedure as you are allowed to provide any means of evidence as an exception of the law as long as it directly serves your own case ("Loreal jurisprudence" vs Sarkozy) !!! ^^
But you must be very careful in any case as you must be sure this exception applies in your own country...

You are wrong. It is legal in Sweden to record a phone call as long as one of the participants knows about it. EU law do not override Swedish law in this case.
Hello guys,
