Yeah, the call recording limitation on the Samsung side is due to Samsung withholding the requisite drivers needed from AOSP. It's all baked into TouchWiz.

Why do you guys want to record calls anyway?
You'd be surprised how useful it is...
I currently use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grinzone.incallrecorder but it needs to be used with speaker phone (it basically uses the mic to record as I understand it) so it records all noise from my side as well...
bad short term memory - useful to record names, numbers, addresses etc.

Another module that I have found useful:
StatusbarVolume: Moves the volume panel to a smaller area along the status bar. Far less intrusive.
AcDisplay: Moto X style notifications. Works better than the stock PA Peek for me, and I can't justify the cost of the Play Store version of Peek when this has the exact same functionality.
I've amended the OP to reflect these as well.

Just a word of warning to those using a lot of modules where some are overlapping. I have read from users on XDA (not necessarily in the Xposed threads) that they struggle with screens of death, phones taking long to wake up or even boot as well as other issues. If you run too many modules, you could end up with the same problems. That is why this thread is invaluable to people rooting and using Xposed. Ask questions and read what the modules are about and make sure it is compatible to your specific device. And make sure you know how to recover from bootloops, etc.

Thanks for this.
It's true- be careful with too many modules, especially those that overlap in terms of functionality. Always do a CWM/TWRP backup prior to installing a module. The framework itself recommends this.
I'm loving AcDisplay. Changed the settings to "Active Mode" I think. Where it only enables the sensors when there's notifications. Awesome.
Installed then uninstalled StatusBarVolume. The pull down region for the expanded panel is too small. :wtf: I have fat fingers. Can't deal. So I've just made my normal volume panel more transparent.

I'm actually considering doing this myself. It is a bit annoying...

A module I will be testing later on tonight: Xposed Knock Code. Combine that with a kernel that supports DT2W, and you have an exact replica of LG's Knock Code screen unlock feature. I may try out the Linaro kernel now...

Let me know how it goes. Don't really wanna use Apex Launcher though. :wtf:

You don't need Apex Launcher for the Xposed module, though.
Will post my feedback. Going to flash back to stock tonight, anyhow.

Why can't I find AcDisplay anywhere?

Download it from the Play Store, it will give you the option to install the module from there.

Aah, thanks.
Using 3 more modules:
Resflux - Theme your phone and apps by editing the values in the "res" folder of the apk thing. Such as strings and color hex codes etc. Still determining the usefulness of this. Linkage.
Xtended NavBar - Swipe the NavBar to the left and you get quick toggles to turn of WiFi, lock orientation etc. Swipe right and get music controls. I find this useful. Linkage.
Heads Up Notifications - Activate the hidden lines of code in android to activate head's up notifications. FYI, GravityBox can do this too. So just enable it there if you want it. Linkage.

Nice finds, thanks. I'm actually using both Xtended Navbar and Heads Up Notifications (but the function built into GravityBox).
