Samsung shows online there is an option in phone call settings to do this but this option is not available on my A52s 5G.
Initially I thought it was Samsung complying with UK laws not being legally allowed to record phone, therefore, I would have to download a third-party app to do this, however, from what I can understand, you are allowed to record your own phone calls for personal use.
Does anyone know why this option is or might not be on mine? Do I have to use a third-party app instead?
Thank you.
you can flash oryginal ROM from outside Europe.
No option to automatically record network calls in UK?

i got the unlocked version of fire phone, but doesnt seem to be working on airtel/vodafone India
i can see the network connected, but cant make/receive any calls ; same with sms
data seems to work though
calling 911, works i.e. atleast gives me a network operator error that the number is invalid; all other number the call just ends
any idea, how to get this working ? i have even tried to factory reset but doesn't help
amazon support, was not able to help; they just said its US compatible only and asked if i wanted to return the device
The phone supports the following frequencies and bands: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz), Quad-band GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz), 9 bands of 4G-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 17, 20), supports carrier aggregation
What frequencies are used by the carrier your having problems with? Also, make sure the SIM is inserted correctly. The contacts go down and the cutout faces away from the phone.
facing the same issue
Hi,
I am also facing the verify same issue, I am able to see the carrier and get signal but am unable to make/receive calls.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Is there any settings that need to be changed ?
:crying:facing the same problem, if there are someone really out there who can help us please do....
CAll Amazon
I called up amazon with the same issue. They accepted the fact that there are many with same problems in India. They are working on a fix and will keep me updated. They added my serial number and registered account to the internal Ticket created for this issue. I recommend you all to do the same and get added.
Moreover, they took some debugging data from my phone after approval so I belive you guys should do that to provide them with more data to fix this issue.
Will it not get activated automatically for Indian users
Rather than providing data to them
Nano Sim
Did you try using a new nano sim from the carrier? There may be an issue if older micro sims are used after cutting into nano sims.
Got a new nano sim from vodafone
I got a new nano sim from vodafone and its still the same .
Now only daru666 can help by letting everyone know what feedback he has from Amazon and if it works.
What should we do ? I am sure some update from Amazon technical team can fix this issue....
Anyone tried it in Delhi. Even if voice works, I am fine with the phone.
I can return it it next few days, so any confirmation would be very helpful...

An issue could be that the IMEI code of fire phone is not under registered or under whitelist category of Indian operators. Hence not able to make calls.
For this to happen, amazon will need to give IMEI list to the operators here to add to whitelist. Or it can also be checked with the operators if they recognize the IMEI nos of fire phone.
That would be helpful to us
Did anyone try flashing an android ROM to make it work in India?
Or is this lock hardware controlled?
Same Problem
Same problem....... :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Not working with INDIAN SIMCARD.
Loved the mobile But .....................
Shall i return it (or) keep it..........?
Hello Guys,
Please send an email to [email protected] with the below details.
Amazon needs the following details to find a solution to this issue.
1) Name of network SIM used
2) Did the store/anyone cut the SIM to get it to nano size?
3) Help us by providing logs of your Fire Phone.
To send us logs, please follow below steps:
1. Press the Home button.
2. Swivel your phone or swipe down from the top of the screen to open the Quick Actions panel, and then select the Search icon (magnifying glass).
3. Type ";dm" (without quotation marks) into the Search field. You can find the ";" key by tapping the “?123” key.
Tip: If ";dm" is auto-corrected by your device, tap "dm" in the word choices that appear above the onscreen keyboard.
4. Tap the Search key (magnifying glass), and then wait 60 seconds.
5. Connect your device to your computer using a micro-USB cable. When your device is plugged into your computer, it appears as a removable mass storage device.
6. Open the Fire phone folder (titled "Fire") on your computer, and then open the "Internal storage" folder.
7. Open the “KindleLogs” folder. Drag each of the files within this folder to your desktop.
Note: If you only see "DCIM" and "Pictures" in the "Internal storage" folder, this means your computer recognizes your device as a camera. To change the USB connection type, open the Quick Actions panel on your Fire phone, tap the "Connected as Camera" notification, and then select File Transfer.
8. Reply to this e-mail and include the logs as an attachment.
The total size of the attachment(s) must be less than 6 MB. You will need to send separate e-mails if the size exceeds 6 MB.
After you've e-mailed the log files, delete them from your Fire phone.
LET ME KNOW WHAT RESPONSE YOU HAVE FROM AMAZON ON THIS.
What is the response from Amazon???
I am also facing a similar situation
Amazon is casually asking me to return the phone and get a full refund. The refund process also looks too complex. Why it isnt working in India alone? They told me that
Although, the Indian carriers provide the network bandwidth which is required for the Fire phone, IMEI's of the Fire phones were not added to the carriers outside the US, so currently the Fire phone will not work with the carriers outside US.
When pressed if they would even rectify it by mid next year, they said that currently they arent working on it. They call a phone which doesnt work with any sim other than the U.S. an unlocked one. Still they are selling the phone at $449 calling it unlocked and when people face an issue they say its Unlocked only in the U.S. This looks like a complete fraud.
Any updates?

We should press amazon to find a solution to this and deliver a fix ASAP considering how big the Indian market can be for them for their inventory of fire phones that are unsold. Moreover, Motorola had similar issues with Moto E And Moto G and they had worked out a solution in 15 days. Amazon can also do the same provided they are serious on fixing the issue.
From what I understand, they need to give an update list of fire phone IMEI's to the Indian carriers who will update their systems accordingly.
The more all of us push, the more we have a chance that Amazon acts faster.
I have a Singapore variant of the tab S4 it makes and receives calls just fine over 3G but wont make them over LTE is VoLTE even possible on this? I travel the country and have ran into a few instances where I have LTE coverage but not 3G
It looks bad
Samsung has disabled VoLTE in every tablet that supports it, tab s3, s4, s6 and s7. It won't comment on this. I suggest contacting Samsung and asking for an update to address this issue. I understand there is a complex hack to accomplish this, but it involves editing a binary file.
If Samsung won't do it, maybe the carrier firmware can enable VoLTE?
AT&T says its Tab S4 variant will continue to work after their 3G shutdown.
Tab S4 (SM-T837A) is listed in their compatible devices:
https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/wireless/Devices-Working-on-ATT-Network.pdf
Maybe this means VoLTE is enabled for calling? Or they might mean it will keep working but only for data LTE.
There is no carrier tab s4 that will work for calls, and I don't think sms either! The carriers have a system in which you can have data/talk/text on a samsung Tab 3,4,5,6,7,8 if you also have a samsung phone.
Samsung also has a setting you can enable to make calls on your tablet if you also have a phone, if both devices are logged into your Samsung account. No security flaw there! Not sure if the phone must be Samsung too, but it would seem so!
I'm not going to say what I think about a manufacturer going out of its way to reverse a setting, intentionally crippling its flagship products, so customers need to purchase more stuff to obtain the expected functionality!
I did write to the CEO of Samsung Electronics, Co., Ltd.. I asked for a firmware update to enable VoLTE in the Tab S series beginning with the S3.
Earlier Tab S don't have compatible hardware. If you clear your browser data, so no one can tell you're a hacker, and google 'Samsung investor relations', you can find his name and address.
I'm not going to dox him here. But if anyone wants to write him, please be very civil, clean, upright, and simply ask for an update, followed by, "I only ask for Samsung to live up to its reputation! I think my request is more than reasonable! Thank you for taking your valuable time to read my message. Best Regards, name"
Don't use spinglish--words and phrases that mean one thing implied to mean something else. And example in reverse is when Dell dubbed one of its laptops exploding into flames, 'a thermal event'!
Just be direct, brief, polite and honest.
Samsung chat says:
Hi, thank you for contacting Samsung Care. I’m D-- ....
... It will be updated in coming update. You will receive a notification on your tablet once it got updated.
8:36 PM When do you think the update will be?
8:37 PM Profile SEA Digital Messaging We don't have the exact information. Hope it will update will release in couple of weeks.
8:38 PM This is due to the 3G shutdown? That will work then, with the update I'll be able to download a phone app from the app store?
Thank you
8:38 PM Profile SEA Digital Messaging It is not about the 3G shutdown, the feature is not available on the tablet. Carrier have not permitted to use this feature on Samsung tablet. You can use caling feature on third party applications like WhatsApp ETC.
8:41 PM ok yes. Then I will wait for the update. Is this official it will be updated?
the tablet will be updated to download a phone app?
8:42 PM Profile SEA Digital Messaging Yes it will be official once the Update released you will get notification on your screen.
Once you get the Update it will update automatically to make the calls.
8:44 PM ok thank you D

So maybe it'll be soon I'm hoping to use VoLTE for my tablet soon. Otherwise Singapore firmware might allow VoLTE calls currently? Why is that? I can't download or install or side-load any phone app currently.
edit update: I flashed to t-mobile using odin and that lets me send and receive texts just fine using messenger app. I use tello so I can place outbound calls over wifi too, so I can just use google voice for any other phone call inbound. I've heard other versions outside usa might be able to place calls though?? Suppose we'll get an update here soon anyway hopefully.

There will be convoluted ways to get data/talk/text on the Tab S models without adding VoLTE compatibility.

Like calling on other devices, if both a phone and tablet are logged in to your Samsung account, you can use your tablet for Data/talk/txt, because it's actually using the phone.
I've got unlocked Note 10+ and I flashed the U firmware because of video calling that's missing on U1. Now I found that on T Mobile version there is no Smart Call and it is replaced by T Mobile NameID, which I consider inferior and I'd have to pay for full functionality.
Anybody knows if there is any way how to get the stock Samsung dialer with Smart Call back? I'd hate to flash the U1 ROM and go through the restore process again. Even with Samsung cloud, Google and SD backups it took me almost half day to get it set as I had it before.

My past experience with Samsung Smart Call, was that i found that even though, its baked into Samsung Firmware, it is Service Provider depended. to "activate /work".
I might be wrong, but i personally believe so, based on my experience.
Just to recap, my experiences with my old Note 8 and my Note 9 (both devices not rooted)
I also flashed Stock Samsung firmware .. different CSC onto these devices.
I found on both occasions i lost the function of th Smart Call.
( Hiya services), also Volte function etc etc.
I could see the Smart Call settings in firmware, but it was greyed out.
Could not enable it at all.
When i flashed my old Samsung Firmware (Service Provider CSC) Smart Call (Hiya services), was enabled again and working.
I'm sure in your case, you'll will find it's Service Provider depended.
Good luck.

The thing is, after I purchased and set up the phone on stock Samsung firmware, VoLTE and Smart Call worked perfectly fine. But stupid me wanted to try the video calling. I found that the video calling is not different than Google Duo and I will NEVER use RTT texts. I see no real advantage from using T Mo firmware in comparison with stock Samsung (provisioned for T Mo of course)
Actually quite the opposite. For me, the signal strength and battery life is practically the same on both and again, FOR ME Smart Call is much more useful than video call and RTT.
If anyone knows any benefits from keeping T Mo firmware over stock, please enlighten me. I really don't want to go through the flashing the whole thing and restoring dance again, but I'm afraid I will have to.

Ha, your post reminds me,
that when i flashed
my branded Samsung Firmware ( Voda CSC) with the Samsung unbranded Firmware,
The reason, was also to get video calling working.
As my branded device did not have video calling option on dialer.
I could only activate video, if someone else, video called me... only then the video option, would appear.!
I then afterwards, realized that i lost my Smart Call functions. and flashed back to the branded software.
This was on my Note 9.
So i had no video call option on dialer ,but Smart Call.
Now...
again, with my branded( Voda CSC) Note 10 +,
i see that my device has video calling on dial pad.....!
So, the Service Providers, chop and changed.
A year back, they disabled video calling option, from dial pad.
Now video calling is back on the dial pad plus Smart Calls is working fine.
Good luck
So.... I bit the bullet and flashed back the U1 firmware. The only thing I lost is the video calling. I still have RTT button on my dialer. Whether it works or not I haven't tried yet. I know it wasn't there on the original dialer when I purchased the phone. Maybe because I didn't flash USERDATA? Who knows.
I'm happy I've got Smart Call back.
CSC N975U
Good afternoon, I have the n975u model, my question is what firmware should I install, to get the smart call and video calls by duo?. Or is csc the one that has these functions active?
Thanks!!
excuse my english, google translator.
I have a Verizon Note10+ running Android 11 (3.1) I paid my cell off 4 mo ago. Verizon confirmed for me that my cell is carrier unlocked. I've tried everything to get the Smart Call app on my phone to work. The only thing I haven't tried is rooting it cause I don't know how. I have 3 versions of the apk and can't make them work. Can anyone help?
Hi All,
My decision to stay QSB 30.121-12 or TROIKA_RETAIL_10_QSBS30.62-17-2 will depend if permission is allowed for some function in the particular channel firmware.
“In some countries in some phones, some feature as call recording of Android 10 is disabled…” I’m aware features may be blocked also from a service provider or disable from firmware point of view.
In an international firmware compared to a country based (example Canada), does features are more likely enable or disable?
Generally, does international firmware version have an approach enable most features and let’s the country’s service provider to block them ?

Root needed
In some countries in some phones, the call recording feature of Android 10 is disabled, and Boldbeast Recorder can't bypass the limits to enable the feature again. Your own voice is good but the caller's voice is very weak in recordings. In this case all recorders don't work either for sure, you can test and confirm the fact yourself. To fix the problem root is the ONLY way to go. If you don't root the phone there will be no solution in the whole market without doubt unfortunately. If you root the phone Boldbeast Recorder can fix it perfectly.
Thanks
From different sources, I have learned that by changing the CSC code I can enable the call recording feature. But on this website (https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s20-fe/firmware/#SM-G7810), I can only see Hong Kong and Chinese Rom for my model number. So, I don't know how can I achieve the call recording feature on my phone.
Can anyone help, please?
try this app called Cube ACR.
I use it on my S20 Ultra and practically every other phone I've had too and it works on every make/model for me. I'm in the US so keep that in mind but might as well try it.
