Try deleting the original file in /system/app first, then moving over the themed one.

nevermind..i extracted the original dialertabactivity.apk from ICBINB into system/app and it fixed my dialer..but does anyone have any idea how to install the blue one from Extreme mods..or have a link to a working one? thx.

Replace it and make sure permissions are set as rw/r/r

I believe it's only for Froyo. GDofWR420 also said the same. I've tried that initially, but that screwed up my whole calling. I couldn't receive calls after that, but I was able to call out.
Then again, I could narrow that down to either (1) my Froyo data restore or (2) replacing the dialer.
Let me know how that works for you.

I did that still could not requested the launched activity..i must be pointing it to the wrong short cut or something..this is really wierd it should work..any other ideas.

ok i did rw/r/r..on the original dialertabactivity.apk for icbinbkh2 and it is still not working...says the same thing..

the main issue is.i dont even see phone in my applications..when i tried to replace that dialertabactivity.apk..that messed it up to where ic ant even get the originial icbinb dialertabactivity.apk to work and atleast get a stock dialer for now..any ideas devs?

You're right, it's Froyo KD1 only. From the post:
I tested this on KD1 running Bali kernel works awesome!

Froyo and GB mods aren't compatible. Even mods between different revisions of Froyo and GB aren't compatible. Find the original dialer file somewhere so you can get your dialer back. Extract it from ICBINB KH2 if you have to. Should be under /system/app in the zip file.

Unfortunately, that doesn't even help it. You have to reflash KH2 again. Make sure you don't do an advanced data restore either. That'll restore the messed up phone.apk and dialertabactivity.apk. Use Titanium. FBis251 and I have tested that out and it works perfectly fine for user apps.

It should be fine to do an advance restore if he didn't make a backup after he messed up the dialer. But I would first try to push a gb dialer then fix permissions.

Ah, right, I forgot about him possibly making a previous backup. As long as it's not a Froyo backup, it'll be fine.
However, pushing the GB dialer and fixing permissions won't fix the problem. I've practically tried all of the simple methods to fix it.

Unfortunately I did not make a backup...using titanium backup....is reflashing the only way...I tried the Paul Diddy dial,with replace and fix permissions still did not work and thats for gingerbread...the stock gingrrbread dialer fromkh2 also did not work

I had the same issue yesterday and spent all last night trying the same thing you did. I had to odin back to T959VUVKG4 and started over. Do not install [THEME] [CWM] KG6, KH1, KH2 FEELING BLUE - Overscroll Glow-CRT on-off. UPDATED 8/17 on GB it will mess up the dialer.

Sorry to hear that man. Your best bet is just to reflash and restore backups with Titanium instead. Start with a KC1 clean slate, just to be safe. Then flash ICBINB KH2 again from there.

How do I change phone.apk

I have flashed Darky's 7.7 for the captivate (awsome rom), and I would like the original phone app back. The rom has the phone app with the video call buttons and I would like to have it without.
I realize this is because it is based on a I-9000 rom, but any help would be appreciated.
Sent from my Roger's Captivate with Darky's 7.7 using XDA App
What u do is download another rom where u like the phone app. Then put that file on ur sd card.
Next get rootexplorer and change the top to r/w.
Finnally find the phone file that u just put on ur sd card and copy/move it to /system/app. It will ask to overwrite, just say yes.
Sent from my Rogers Captivate using XDA app
Thanks, do I just use Phone.apk or Phone_Util.apk and PhoneErrService.apk.
Thanks again.

Yup, cant get that to work, just a couple things force close and the same dialer remains. I will try again tomorrow. Thanks for your help.
The only thing I can think of is try new phone.apk, phone utilities.apk and phone error(something).apk
Sent from my Rogers Captivate using XDA app
I think I might have to make a update.zip and install with clockwork recovery.
Pretty sure you're also going to need DialerTabActivity.apk for this to work properly.
Use caution though, I got my phone stuck in a bootloop trying to do this exact same thing and ended up having to re-flash the ROM.
I'll try that tonight when I get home from work.
The keypad is in DialerTabActivity.apk. You'll want to follow the same steps above to copy that over the current DialerTabActivity.apk in /system/app/. The Phone.apk controls the screen that comes up when someone calls in or when you're in a call.
Hope noone minds unburying the thread. Is phone replacement a way to fix the problem with the phone app losing phone call even when I press home button?
I am not sure if this is the rooting of my nomu s10 that did that, but otherwise, the apps are working fine.
Thanks.

[Q] (Q) ICBINB Rom Stock dialer

First of all I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to dsexton702 and team Acid for this wonderful rom. Everything about this rom is amazingly fast. Thank you guys. Anyway my question is "is there any way I can change to a stock phone dialer on this rom?"
Yes, just grab the DialerTabActivity.apk in system apps from another rom and over right it using root explorer or whatever you use... i had no problem with it when i did this (just know to do this at your own risk) i used the dialer from audiophile and put it on gs4g. just in case make sure you back up your rom before you do this.
Thank you so much jdubb1106.
I think there's also a dialer mod somewhere in the bible. I think it was the Xtreme Dialer.
Yep, the extreme dialers work fine with it.

I did that and started getting Force Closes every time I tried to make or answer a call, even after rebooting. Ended up having to restore my backup rom. Not sure why, but next time, I think I'll try to push the apps into the zip file before flashing the ROM.
and when I restored my old KD ROM, it left the bali3.3 kernel and red CWM, which is nice.
This rom does not have installed email.apk as that of the KF2, since I can obtain it?
Some guide?

i doubt it will work, Camera.apk in GB and FROYO are completely different. Or atleast it is for now. If you replace stock Camera.apk in FROYO using TB of GB you get force close error and vice versa.

Well, I tried it on Froyo before reading the above posts and... it doesn't work.
BUT I have a small problem now: I backed up the original apk, and used Titanium Backup to backup the camera application again (to be safe). After trying out the new apk (and doing a reboot), I just replaced it with the original one, and rebooted again. Problem is that the system just doesn't recognize it. And Titanium Backup just hangs when restoring the app.
So, there is no icon, the app is not installed, and I can't use the camera now. Any ideas?
EDIT: If someone could post the original Froyo Camera.odex (and apk, to be safe), this would be great. I expect this to solve my problem.

:O Should just let TB restore App+data for camera o.o, Try a hardboot and see if you have that option not freezing up on you
@ Misledz: As I said, TB hangs when restoring => It doesn't restore the app. Rebooted many times, didn't fix it either.
But just learned that you can extract files from .rfs images, and did that for my firmware - camera is working again!

[Theme] Asus Quick Settings 27/02/12

So after a few days of the release of ICS, I've seen people complaining about the quicksettings panel which looked to me like a combination of honeycomb and ice cream sandwich. Epic Asus is epic. So today, I decided to spend some time theming it to look more like ICS on the whole. Enough said, a picture tells a thousand words.
I dunno what else are needed to be themed. As I spend more time with ICS and if I spot some Honeycomb rubbish graphics, I'll update this thread.
Compatible with any deodexed ICS Roms. Not compatible with AOSP Roms (CM9, TeamEOS etc.)
Flash this everytime when there's a major rom upgrade (Rebase etc)

For Revolver Users ONLY. From Beta 1.3 onwards, there is no need to download this framework.jar as it is included in subsequent updates.

For Revolver users, I've modded the framework.jar in /system/framework such that caching across all apps are disabled. This will reduce scrolling lags. I assure you this mod will not wipe your system, erase your data or whatsoever. Though, if it eats your cat, it's not my fault because it works well for me. However, if you're scared, make a backup of the your current framework.jar before applying this mod. For more information regarding this mod, read here.
Here's what you should do if you want this mod:
1. Download the framework.jar into your sdcard. Backup your current framework.jar[OPTIONAL]
2. Using a file manager which can mount rewrite and change permissions, copy and paste the framework.jar into /system/framework.
3. Overwrite your current framework.jar.
4. Change the permission according [permissions should be the same as the other .jar files within the folder].
5. Reboot.
6. On startup, you should see a system update, just like when you first flash an ICS Rom. Do not panic because no data will be lost.
7. Enjoy the smooth scroll mod.
8. Hit some thanks if you liked the mod.

Buttons and quick icons look soo much better too!!
I put a few hours into those galaxy nexus buttons figuring out how to make it work right.
Flashed theme and it looks good!
thank you i thought i was the only one that didnt like the stock ics quick settings
Worked like a charm. Thanks!
Tested on android Revolution D
Thanks, gonna give it a go
At first when I used ICS on TF101 I thought ASUS did a really good job and didn't really notice this theming. After flashing the new update to Revolver (included) this is a amazing theme.
Really good work
Is this supposed to be flashed using CWM?? I've tried it (using the Rogue one) and it fails with Status 0. Have tried to download again a few times, from internal and from SD, always the same. Any ideas?

Try unzipping and zipping the contents then try flashing again. If not I recommend using rogue recovery. I guessing it has got something to do with the scripting. Not too sure man. I believe all those who can flash uses rogue.

Flashed this using Rogue CWM on ARHD and worked fine.
Can I use this on rooted stock ROM without CWM, meaning just replace the SystemUI.apk with the one here? What do I do with the odex file?

I have used swype for a long time and have replaced it many times.
You have to make sure that you have removed ALL "references" of swype from your phone or it will not install. Including any backups you may have in Titanium Backup.
What I always do is delete my Titanium Backup backups. Then in Titanium Backup settings> more > Clean up the Dalvik Cache, I clean the Dalvik Cache. After that I reboot my phone. Then I install swype (I send myself a new email invite from the swype beta website) without any issues. It works EVERY TIME.
I think stock Swype needs a library in /system/lib, something like libSwypeCore.3.25.91.32328.so (maybe wrong with the version). See if you have it or what the version is.
I only pushed the swype.apk into the system apps, nothing else. How do I get the library?

Erik and Antonx are both right. From stock KJ6 debloated by raver, you need to pull from /system/lib libSwypeCore.3.25.91.32328.so and push it to the same directory on yur phone. Then pull swype.apk and SwypeTip-release.apk in /system/app and push them tothe same directory. Do not try to install them by selecting them or whatnot as it will fail.
