atakephone

Hi all
i installed atakephone and it's the best dialler
but there is problem
i can't find my contacts in it!
every time i want make call i have to go official dialler of x10
and looking for the contact and use it
any chance i can use contacts within the atakephone app itself?!
thank you in advance

just dial the first couple of letters of the contact you want in the find/dial tab and it comes up in the search bar, hope that sorts it out for ya

Is there a better dialer out there?

I have recently moved from a Palm Pre to a G1... so please be nice!
Is there a way to replace the actual dialer on this thing? I hate having to hit menu every time I want to do simple things like turn the speakerphone on and off. Is there an alternative dialer that can be installed to replace the one that my CM 6.0 RC1 ROM came with?
And in similar vein, is there a tool that has can apply various tweaks etc. to the OS? Kind of like Preware for WebOS or Advanced Configuration Tools for WM...

If you are on CM6 RC1 then you can go to Settings>Call Settings and check the Touch UI for a better interface.

Download Dialer One.

I really like aContacts. It's one of my favourite apps so far. Far better than the stock address book and dialer.

try this before you download new dialers it's head over heels better that stock (oh and select left handed mode for a less annoying hold button)
and nothing like preware all those things are built into adw launcher cyanogen settings and spare parts. themes and stuff are found here on xda

Do you know how to integrate or replace default dialer with aContacts? I removed the standard dialer in my rooted X10 and now when I had a missed call and wanted to view it, it said 'Application can't launch standard dialer. Please contact with developer.
Cheers.

[Q] Contacts App: Feature?

Hi all
I'm looking to find an app that combines the best features of dialers and the android (or is it samsung?) contacts app.
Basically, i love being able to open up the dialer, and type in the name on an alphanumeric keyboard which is open on default. This means to find a name takes about a second, and about 2 or 3 strokes of a key.
BUT, all dialers i have tried, once you click on the contact, open up the contact, and then you still have to click "call" and "yes, i am freaking sure!".
I LOVE the feature on my stock contacts app for swiping left to message and right to call. I want that feature in a dialer app to minimize the effort required to call or sms.
Anyone able to recommend a good app that makes calling and messaging contacts a breeze?
Thanks in advance!

Try AContact. It has a few settings that you can fiddle with and is pretty fast.

Im using go contacts since month... its good. serves my purpose. And It got what you want if I understand properly.

Nope, you can't swipe to dial or message in Go contact

I'd go for "Dialer One", but it's a matter of taste.

I'd ALSO go for dialer one.. in fact i used dialer one for a while.. but i didn't like:
1. No swipe to dial/message function, meaning that it was not an ideal replacement for stock contacts
2. Shows all numbers of a contact as separate contacts. I have 6 friends called matt, which means when i type in matt, it shows me over 20 phone numbers for matts. fail.
I will give go contacts a try...
Is the only reason why the swipe to dial/call function has not been added to all these dialers because the devs haven't thought of it? if so, what a huge oversight. If not, why not??
If the stock contacts app opened with an alphanumberic keyboard, i would consider it the best dialer.
Keep suggestions rolling people!

AFAIK, the stock SGS 'dialer' can search for contact name. like say matt, you can dial in 6288 (for matt). however, a little problem with the dialer is that you can't swipe to call except for log and favourite list.
The stock contact include a search bar at the top when you open it. It should do what you want to do.

Have you tried RocketDialer?

i tried rocket dialer today. it does have some nice features, although having a price isn't one of them. I live in South Africa and can't pay for these things cos google wont let me!
I really like the look and feel of the stock contact app, and could easily replace the dialer with an alphanumeric keyboard, but the reality is that having to hit the searchbar, and then type in someone's name on a portrait qwerty keyboard doesn't make me happy like the T9 dialers.
I would PAY (if i could) if someone tweaked the stock contacts app to include a dialer.

[App] Go Contacts - AOSP Contact and Dialer replacement.

coming from "sense" and "tw" devices i became spoiled by the dialer option of using the t9 to look up my numbers as it is a lot easier to type someone's name rather then memorizing their number or having to scroll through your contact list. If you like using the "sense" or the "tw" method then I suggest you look up "Go Contacts" and the best part is its FREE.

I used to use Dialer One.
VERY good phone app that gets updated often. It has several options like saving numbers which aren't saved and T9 dialing.
I used to use it religiously but now I just do voice search, "Call Dad Mobile". Seems to work easier and faster; especially while driving.
[EDIT]
It's free also.

great app thanks
i love all the go app great developer

I've been trying out Youlu which has a dialer/sms/contacts app in one. I like it, but the sms app doesn't auto-correct words when you type. Plus some people don't like having the sms app tied to the dialer + contacts.

Go Contacts
I give all of the go dev team apps thumbs up. First they are free, Second they are extremely flexible in the options and setup areas. The only one I am not using right now is the go launcher just because the sock one is so friking fast I hate to slow it down at all. Not that the go launcher is slow but it just cant match the stock.
My wife like the look of my contacts screen and dialer so much she is now using go contacts on her phone as well.

I have been using a Vibrant. The contacts/dialer app on the Samsung Galaxy S line is excellent. But the functionality I really am looking for on my G2X, is the ability to text a phone number, directly out of the contact app.
For example, I want to text Henry's mobile phone number to Fred. In the Samsung, I would go to Henry's contact, long-press his mobile phone number, and text that to Fred. Very clean and efficient.
Is there an app I can load on my G2X that provides the same functionality?

i had a vibrant so i know what you mean ... go dialer/contact does that and has more options and thems! def worth checking out
side note ; go products are great! i use go launcher, sms, weather and dialer! of course there not as fast as stock but the look and customization trumps stock or even launcher pro plus

I tried Go Contacts, and though it is a nice dialer, it does not offer the features that I described. If I long-press a mobile number, it assumes I want to text that person. If I had wanted to text that person, I would have long-pressed on the "message" icon on that number, not the number directly.
Or am I missing something obvious?

Long press on the number then select the option "send contact". That's the only thing I could think off.

that works! Thanks!

[Q] My phone does not allow any app (Direct Dial, 3rd party dialer) to call directly

I got a new OnePlus One and found out that I can't have the direct dial shortcut to call out automatically. It shows the stock dialer with the number to be dialed instead. This also happens when I use 3rd party dialer like Dialer One, ExDialer etc. All of them, when call is made, will just show the stock dialer with number to be dialed and stay there...
I have searched through the internet and couldn't find the solution for this. Anybody has any idea on how to solve this problem.
I'm using Cyanogen 11S 44R with Go Launcher and Dialer One (i've tried with and without Dialer One and Go Launcher installed still the same problem...)
Thank you very much in advance.

Best thing is u can report the dev....u can change the theme using layers manager if u don't like the stock theme..thats all I can say..
