One thing that doesn't bring Android from the factory is that it's possible record what's happening on the screen in the video. Yes, it is possible to do it with a third-party program and with ADB commands, but most customization layers including small recordings do the work.
Android 10 betas showed us little use of the recording, bad but it worked, but ultimately it didn't come to the last version of the system. The good news is never disappeared, but hidden even more If you have a pure Android phone like Google Pixel you can restore it by command.
Come back, record the screen
About a year ago we were talking about it a simple screen recording tool that was in the beta for Android Q. At the time it was also a little hidden, because it had to be activated from developer settings, job tags (or Add flags). However, in the latter type it did not exist as such.
Now a Reddit user has discovered that the recorder is still there, but disabled. It is possible bring it back to life with the ADB command after connecting the cell phone to PC and connecting to it with ADB.
To do this you must connect the cellular cable to the PC, install the ADB and connect to the cell phone after using the developer and USB debugging. The first time to do it is you have to authorize the PC and type this command:
adb shell settings put global settings_screenrecord_long_press true
You just need to use this command and to use the screen recorder itself. The same Feature marks for Android beta, but to make it work with ADB instead of developer options.
The record itself hasn't changed a year, it's still pretty simple. To use it you must open the closing menu and perform Long tap on the screen. If all goes well, a small window with a recorder and two options will be available.
Select if you want to show touchscreen on the video and when you want the microphone to record your voice and press Start recording. Before continuing, you should wait for the window that alerts you to the possibilities for sensitive information being held.
Once this is done, screen recording begins. If you want to give up, you can do it from endless notification. Remember that it's about half cooked work and may contain errors. In fact, several users report via Reddit that the app only appears to record half the screen. Some users with Android One phones say the recorder is activated, but turns off.
The good news is that the cartoonist, though hidden, is still there. Well, I might end up landing as a Pixel Feature Drop in the future either integrated into the next version of AndroidHey, it's not too late if it's good fun.
