I am looking for a better phone dialer and contact manager than the original. Any suggestion ?
Try Inesoft Phonex. Not free, but its really good. Another one would be Resco Contacts manager,again not free, but also good, especially coz u can link it with Facebook.

Oh yeah, forgot bout them. iContactBE (BurtEdition) along with iDialer,good combination!
Thank you for your answers. I tried to install the new dialer (iDialer) but the hardware phone button opens the built-in dialer while the touch phone button on today screen opens the new one. Do I have to uninstall the built-in dialer ? How can I do this since I don't want to use both ?

As far as i know, u cant disable the default dialer without some difficult configuration within windows, which i dont know. (maybe a more knowledgable member can help u)sorry.
But with the others that i mentioned,they do override the default dialer. iehonex.
I really like the cool looks of iDialer. The same problem with Resco trial though.
I also tried the iContactsBE but I think it is not suitable for the screen resolution of my phone (letters are too small, almost unreadable).

Exactly what I needed. Works perfectly. Thank you !
I'm wondering what is everyone using since the cm6 dialer doesn't search contacts as you type their name in T9 format. Or is there a setting I'm missing.

Dialer one off the market has all of those sense features
Yeah, I've tried it but it's slow and doesn't have any of the tabs on top like call log, contacts, favorites.
I'm not sure why the developer didn't choose to replace the default dialer with his and instead added a dialer. This creates a problem because after dialing and conversation is over the default dialer is shown.
I started this thread thinking the CM6 developer responsible for dialer app would take this as a request to the default dialer if anything.
Can we install the old sense dialer if we have the apk or will it not work since it isn't a sense rom?
I usually just hit the search button once I open the dialer to find the contact I'm looking for.
And as for returning to the dialer after a call, there is a setting in the preferences for this. There's also a setting in the main call settings for returning to the call log after a call.

It won't work: no sense apps will work on AOSP since there's not HTC framework.

turn off the "Display contacts photo" setting and that should take care of the slowness. it doesn't have tabs at the top, but you can swipe left and right on the list to change views.

Thanks, that helped with the speed I didn't know about the swiping either.
What about the buttons. Don't you guys find them to be too much against each other? I like the default dialer better. It "seems" like you are less likely to hot the wrong key.
Guys, here it is the new TouchPal Contacts version 4.3.0 patched to clear missed call notification, with an added bonus (over the previous one): it doesn't require NotiGo anymore!
Also, since in this new version the background service uses low ram (5mb in my case), i didn't disable it.
Upcoming patches:
- add translations (i'll do the italian one, please translate the strings.xml file and post it so that i can add it in the new releases)
- customizable number formatting
Installation:
Simply install the zip from CWM recovery!
[THE FOLLOWING IS VALID FOR THE OLD VERSION ONLY]
Hi to all,
I like very much Touchpal Dialer, but it had some problems for me to be my daily dialer:
it launches a background service that eats 10-15 MB of precious ram (other similar apps don't have any bg service);
it does not clear missed call notifications (on Gingerbread, as all non stock dialers), and you cannot move it as a system app (e.g. using Titanium Backup) because doing so it crashes
it (like many other dialers) does not open when i tap on a missed call notification...
So I patched this app to work as it should be out of the... market!
I changed the service so that now it runs only when TouchPal is open;
I added support for NotiGo, so now TouchPal clears missed calls notifications also on Gingerbread.
But for this to work you have to install NotiGo (see the first post) and install TouchPal after that.
Finally, I added support for the Galaxy missed call notification, so you can finally open TouchPal's call log when tapping on a missed call, instead of the built in (crap) call log.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the techs this is what I've done:
In SmartDialerService, method ensureService(), I replaced the call to startService() with bindService(), because every TouchPal activity calls ensureService on creation;
In SmartDialerService I added a new method askForStop() to shut down the service when no TouchPal activity is using it, and added a call to this in the onDestroy() method of every TouchPal activity;
In DialerActivity and CallLogActivity I added the call to NotiGo to clear the notifications;
In the AndroidManifest.xml I added an intent support for the action"com.sec.android.app.dialertab.calllog.DetailViewActivity", which is broadcasted when you tap a missed call notification. Also, obviously, added permission support for NotiGo ("thinkpanda.permission.CLEAR_MISSED_CALL")
For further details, please decompile the apk and compare the smali files to the original ones.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please give me feedback on this mod, and if you like it hit Thanks!

Does it display any error? I have not MIUI so i can't test.
But we can test if it is a problem of touchpal or of the builtin contacts app.
If you can install AnyCut (or a similar app) from the market, try to add a new shortcut ("Make your own") using these parameters (without quotes):
Action: "android.intent.action.INSERT"
Type: "vnd.android.cursor.dir/contact"
Then go to the home screen and tap on the new shortcut.
If it doesn't open the "Add Contact" dialog, there should be some problem with the builtin contacts app.
This app replaces the app from market, is it?
Then if we use your app we can't update Touchpal from Market without loosing "steroid"?
cannot install NotiGo.
SOLVED: Gotta use edify's one

Yes you should be able to update it from market.
Obviously doing so you lose all the customization I made.
I wrote to Cootek asking them to integrate my mods in the dialer, since they can do it in minutes.
So far no answers...

I also wrote several times cootek, without any reply...
It's a pity, since I like TouchPal Dialer so much, but these "features" i don't like are always there, and ...no reply from them ever.
Thank you for your "version", anyhow: I like it!

hi, samsung g935f dialer how to Change miui dialer ?
Install an alternate dialer from Google Play Store that is similar to MIUI one. There's no easy way to replace the embeded dialer as it's tied to other parts of the ROM (call ui, system ui, framework res, and so on)

call screen, does not change ?
Call screen is usually separate from dialer. In some ROMs they are even different apks.
If you install a different dialer, usually just the contacts/dialer is changed, the call screen (incall ui) remains the stock one. In order to have that changed, you need to be rooted and have several other things replaced. Also a different incall ui has to be generated at ROM build time as it is depending on system ui and framework res. You can't just replace files from another ROM.

Everytime I make a call, there is a notification (unread call) in call history (the middle tab). Do you have that too?

Nope, only for missed calls. Try to set all the permissions for the app and set it for default dialer if you haven't done this already.

That is strange. All permissions are set and Phone app is on default. Still when making a phonecall I get an unread count in call history. Running stock 6.0.1 + root
Hello guys,
I replaced HTC dialer with simple dialer from playstore. But when someone calls me and i have a missed call, there are 2 notifications for missed calls. One from htc dialer and one from simple dialer. Also, many times when i try to open the simple dialer, the htc dialer opens for 1-2 seconds and then back to the simple dialer. Can anyone knows how i can fully replace the htc dialer?
