Hi forum members, I have a quick question. Is there an app/solution/setting to assign the double click of optical joystick to an app (I have a Droid Incredible)? Also, is there a way to replace the default dialer app with another app? i.e. when I click "Phone" on the home screen, is there a way to bring up a different dialer app? Thanks much for the help.

Sorry to rack up an old topic, but I've recently purchased an Artemis, and installed HTC Home Customizer on it, what downloaded and installed HTC Home Plugin.
I'm looking for a way to turn my favorite contacts-tab into a photo-version of it. Now it just states the first few characters of the name, that's all.
How do I put photo's in those square boxes instead of names?

The plugin itself doesn't have the function to edit the photo contact. Your contact entry must have its own "photo value" in the field. So, you need to assign the photo to the contact. Do this with MS Outlook or your favorite contact manager. Good luck!
Is it possible to change my camera button to open Camera 360 (or another app) instead of the default camera app?
Also, is it possible to change the amount of time you need to hold the camera button to initiate the app?

Try looking at "Button Shortcut" by Notes in the Android Market. It's free and it allows you to pick any application to replace the camera button. Just make sure to check the box when you say you always want Button shortcut to be set as default so it will not bother you with a choice. Hope that helps.
I'm trying to customize the homescreen and i have a dock with a little "+" for add, but theres no app to assign to it that can open up the little box like when you press menu>> add or is there something I'm not seeing that i can assign that is like the menu>>add? or is there and app that can simulate the "add" thing where the box pops up showing widget, application, etc

Which launcher? I would try just dragging an app from the home screen onto the dock.

IIRC a long press on the + should give you what you want.

Hi guys,
I'm currently running KelLMSKing MIUI Mod 2.8.1, but this question might apply to just about any ROM.
One thing bugging me about this ROM is that when I hit the search button, it opens up some MIUI search tool that I find kind of annoying. I would much rather have the search button open up the Google Search app. Is there any app, or any way that I can reassign the function of the search button to open up a different app?

button remapper app. google button remapper android(i dont think its in the market). im using it to assgn the search key with the power function, since my power button is dead. it works on ics too
Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately this won't allow me to assign an app to the search key, only the defined functions in the app
Any other suggestions?

if you read the info about the app, i believe it explains how to add your own functions via adb.
i am looking for a floating dialer widget w/contacts AND DTMF (touchtone) support.
the only thing that is close to what i am looking for is Floating apps. but it doesn't support touchtone, and annoyingly, it's not a standalone app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lwi.android.flappsfull
i've also tried using Floating banners to create a widget with a dialer widget, but sizing of the widget gets really strange and unusable, and none i tried suppots touchtone.
what i want to be able to pull off is, if i am looking at a meeting with a call bridge, while i am in the calendar app;
1. open up the floating dialer;
2. open up and call the bridge number from contacts; (in my invites that i get, only an internal IP phone numbers are specified, so short of me memorizing the number, i'd need the floating app to pull up the contacts list. alternatively, it could support speed dial from the widget)
3. punch in the bridge code in the floating app, so i can still see the numbers in the calendar app in the background.
does a such app exist?
or is there a calendar/appointment app that can handle something like this?

There is a small app for Xperia phones called 'small phone' which is just a floating dialer. Not sure if there is a small apps port for your device, but if there is, you may want to check it out

that looks a lot like Tiny apps.

does the Xperia 'small phone' support DTMF?
You might want to try a combination of popup widget and simple dialer widget. Popup widget allows you to have any widget as a popup.
Or PA halo might work for you.

confused about that. is that a rom or an app???
alternatively, what would work for me is a floating 'event details' widget.
i am seeing a bunch of floating calendars, but what i need to see is the event details in a floating widget.
anybody seen anything like it?
