Recording disables by itself after a while (the toggle)

Note that i recently updated magisk

Did all of the settings reset or just the call recording toggle? There are two known cases where settings are reset:

  • If BCR loses access to the required permissions (eg. microphone), the call recording toggle will be disabled. Some ROMs are very aggressive about this and remove permissions if you don't open the app regularly. There might be an option to disable this behavior in Android's settings (depending on the ROM).
  • BCR will lose all of its settings if the ROM is booted once without Magisk being fully installed. (This can't be worked around. Android deletes app data if the app disappears, even for a single boot.)

Only the toggle got disabled. the rest of the settings were preserved (eg. save location, output format). Also:

  • it did not lose permissions
  • I didn't boot without Magisk

I am on android 12 (OxygenOS), and my belief is that instead the battery optimization is aggressive. I observed that even if I disabled battery optimizations for some apps, after a while they are set to "ask". similar behavior was seen on individual app settings after allowing "background activity" it turned back to foreground activity only. Unfortunately, for BCR I can't disable battery optimizations neither force allow background activity, as these options are not shown for some reason, and even if I would, the OS will turn them back to default state after a while.. I think it's just Android 12 messing around

Thanks for the additional info. It's unfortunate OxygenOS behaves like that. I don't think there's any way BCR can work around that.

i used AM (application manager) to disable battery optimizations. let's see if it still disables by itself from now on. cheers
