Owners of Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro often face the annoying notification โThis conversation is recordedโ during phone calls โ even if the recording function is disabled. This is standard MIUI firmware behavior, which is associated with legal requirements in some countries (for example, India or the EU), but for most users, such a warning is excessive and only interferes.
In this article, weโll break down all the working ways to disable this notification on the Poco X3 Pro, including:
- ๐ง Settings through the standard menu MIUI (rootless)
- ๐ฑ The hidden parameters of the developer and ADB-team
- ๐ ๏ธ Editing system files (requires root)
- ๐ Alternative methods for different versions MIUI (12, 13, 14)
Important: Some methods may require unlocking the bootloader or superuser rights โ weโll point out where this is needed. Also note that after updating the firmware settings may reset.
Why is there a warning about recording a conversation?
The Call Recording Notification is built into MIUI firmware for two main reasons:
- Legal requirements: In some countries (e.g. India), operators are required to notify subscribers of recording conversations, and Xiaomi has added this warning globally, even for regions where it is not required.
- Call recording feature: MIUI has a built-in call recording (Settings โ Applications โ Calls โ Recording conversations) warning appears even if the function is turned off in settings, but is active at the system level.
On the Poco X3 Pro (surya/karna model), this notice may be duplicated:
- ๐ At the beginning of each outgoing/incoming call
- ๐ In the top notification panel during the conversation
- ๐ข Voice communication (in some regions)
โ ๏ธ Note: Disabling the system notification does not violate the law if you do not record calls without the consent of the interlocutor.In some countries (for example, Russia), recording a conversation without notifying another participant may be considered a violation of article 138 of the criminal code of the Russian Federation.
Method 1: Disconnect via MIUI settings (without root)
The easiest method is to use built-in MIUI options. It works on most firmware versions (12.5โ14), but may vary depending on the regional build.
Update MIUI to the latest version | Check the firmware region (in Settings โ About Phone) | Backup settings (Settings โ Additional โ Backup) | Make sure the call recording function is turned off
-->
Step 1: Check the current recording settings
First, make sure that the call recording function is actually disabled:
- Open the phone application (pipe icon).
- Press three points (โฎ) top-right โ Settings.
- Select the Conversation Record.
- Make sure the slider is in the off position for everyone. SIM-map.
Step 2: Disable notifications in the settings of the Phone application
If the notification continues to appear, try:
- Go to Settings โ Applications โ Application Management.
- Find the Phone app (or com.android.dialer) and open its settings.
- Select Notifications โ Call notifications.
- Turn off the option to Show Record Notice (or similar).
On some versions of MIUI, this item may be called differently:
- ๐ Warning of the recording
- ๐ System call notifications
- ๐ Additional settings โ Notice of confidentiality
โ ๏ธ Attention: On firmware for India (IN) EU (EEA) This item can be blocked. In that case, move to the method of ADB.
๐ก
If there is no option in the settings to disable the notification, try changing the firmware region to Global or Russia via Settings โ Additional โ Region. After changing the region, restart your phone.
Method 2: Disconnect via ADB (without root)
If the standard settings did not help, you can turn off the notification using ADB-This method does not require superuser rights, but it will require the phone to be connected to a computer.
Step 1: Preparation
You'll need:
- ๐ฅ๏ธ Computer with Windows/Linux/macOS
- ๐ฑ USB-cable (preferably original)
- ๐ ๏ธ Utility. ADB (Platform Tools by Google
Download and unpack the platform-tools into any folder.
- Settings โ About Phone โ 7 times click on the MIUI version (activates the developer mode).
- Back to Settings โ Additionally. โ For developers.
- Turn on USB debugging and confirm the permission.
Step 2: Implementation ADB-team
Connect your phone to your computer and execute it in the terminal (from the ADB folder):
adb devices(Poco X3 Pro should be serial numbered. If not, check the drivers.)
adb shell settings put global hide_call_recording_notification 1This command adds a system parameter that hides the notification. Once executed, restart the phone.
If the team doesnโt work, try an alternative:
adb shell am start -n com.android.settings/.Settings\$CallRecordingNotificationSettingsThis will open a hidden menu of write notification settings (not working on all versions of MIUI).
๐ก
ADB-Reversible method: to return the notification, execute the same command with 0 instead of 1.
Step 3: Checking the Results
After the reboot:
- ๐ Call another number and check if the notification appears.
- ๐ Make sure there is no record icon in the notification panel (microphone in square).
โ ๏ธ Note: On some firmware (for example, MIUI 13.0.4+ for India) ADB-The command may not work due to manufacturer limitations, and then you'll need to edit the system files.
Method 3: Editing system files (requires root)
If the previous methods didn't work, the most radical way is to edit system files.
- ๐ Unlocked bootloader (official instructions Xiaomi)
- ๐ก๏ธ Superuser rights (Magisk or SuperSU)
- ๐ A file manager with root access (e.g., Root Explorer or Mixplorer)
What happens if you incorrectly edit system files?
Step 1: Finding the answering file
The notification of the recording of the conversation is controlled by the file:
/system/priv-app/Dialer/Dialer.apkor (in new versions of MIUI):
/system/product/priv-app/Dialer/Dialer.apkIt may also be necessary to edit:
/system/build.propStep 2: Change the Dialer.apk file
Open the file. Dialer.apk into APK-Editor (such as APKTool) and find a line:
bool mShowRecordingNotification = true;Replace true with false, save the file, and rewrite the original.
- Reboot the phone.
- Clear the cache of the Phone app (Settings โ Apps โ Phone โ Storage โ Clear the cache).
Step 3: Edit build.prop (extra)
If the notification remains, add a line to /system/build.prop:
persist.radio.call_recording_notification=falseSave the file and restart the device.
| Method | Need root? | Does it work on MIUI 12/13/14? | Risk to the system |
|---|---|---|---|
| MIUI settings | โ No. | โ Yeah, not always) | โ ๏ธ Low. |
| ADB-team | โ No. | โ Yeah (except) IN/EEA) | โ ๏ธ Medium. |
| Editing by Dialer.apk | โ Yes. | โ Yes. | โ High-pitched |
| Change to build.prop | โ Yes. | โ Yes. | โ High-pitched |
Method 4: Alternative solutions
If none of these methods worked, consider alternatives:
1.Use of a third-party application for calls
Set up an alternative call, such as:
- ๐ Google Phone (from Google Play)
- ๐ฑ Truecaller (has a built-in notebook without notifications)
- ๐ Simple Dialer (minimalist call without unnecessary functions)
After installation:
- Open Settings โ Applications โ By default โ Phone application.
- Select the installed call.
2. Change of the firmware region
Some firmware (e.g. IN-India) has a hard-wired notification, so the solution is to change the MIUI region:
- Download firmware for another region (e.g. Global or Russia).
- Install it via TWRP or Fastboot (instruction: XDA Developers).
โ ๏ธ Note: Changes in the region may lead to: ๐ต Network loss (if the firmware does not support your frequencies) ๐ง Reset all data (return all data!) ๐ฑ Loss of warranty (if the loader is unlocked)
3.Return to the old version of MIUI
If the notification comes after the update, you can return the previous firmware version. For example, on the Poco X3 Pro in MIUI 12.0.8 this problem was not.
- Download the desired version from the official website.
- Go to TWRP โ Wipe โ Advanced Wipe (check Dalvik, Cache, Data).
- Set up the downloaded one. ZIP-file.
Frequent mistakes and their solutions
When you turn off the call record notification, users often encounter problems.
1. ADB-team is not working
Possible causes and solutions:
- ๐ USB-Debugging not enabled: Check settings โ For developers โ Debugging by USB.
- ๐ง Drivers not installed: Download Mi PC Suite or drivers for Poco X3 Pro.
- ๐ฑ Firmware is blocking. ADB: On some versions MIUI (for example, 13.0.6+ for IN) Try adb shell settings list global to see if the command applies.
2. Notification is returned after update
This is because:
- ๐ MIUI Resets settings for major updates. Solution: Repeat steps after update.
- ๐ System files are restored. If you edited Dialer.apk, After the update, it will have to be re-adjusted.
To avoid the problem:
- ๐ Turn off automatic updates MIUI: Settings โ The phone. โ Updating the system โ โฎ โ Settings โ Auto-update.
- ๐ฅ Install updates manually by pre-checking reviews on forums (e.g, 4PDA).
3. the sound or network disappears after editing system files
If after changes in /system, the phone stopped ringing or catching the network:
- Restore the original files from the backup.
- Fastboot your phone (instruction: XDA).
- Check the file permissions (should be 644 for build.prop and 755 for folders).
