Reverse Default dialer - General Topics

I chose an option to use just my normal dialer by default after installing Google Voice. It popped up when placing a call. I now want the option to dial calls through Google Voice but cannot find how to change default setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Private/hidden calls

After I've reset my Nexus S a few days ago... It makes all my calls shown as private number to others. Does anyone of you fellas know, how to change it back so my phone number is shown?
I'm using A.V. 4.0.3.
In advance thank you.
Open up contacts and go into settings. You'll find it in "Additional Settings".
It's no longer in the contacts settings with ICS, it's now in the Phone app settings.
Open the Phone app, go to Menu > Settings > Additional settings > Caller ID.

OK, I messed up (Voicemail)

I just installed CM9 (Eagles Blood) and I got my 1st voicemail, it said there was no number set, so I mistakenly put in my phone number, instead of the +1805..... and now it asks for my pin each time, where do I change this at?
Settings, call settings, voicemail.
Edit: I may have spoke too soon. That's how you do it in GB. Although ICS should be similar.

How to check call duration in the nexus 5 dialer?

I really don't understand the new dialer, it shows my contacts in random order, anyway you,can arrange them? And the 3 big buttons what are they? Speed dial?
Also, how do you see statistics for all ur outgoing/incoming call duration? How do you even see single call duration?
Thanks in advance

Enable Download booster ( Stock, No Root, Need Confirmation )

Ok I think I stumbled on how to enable Download Booster without root or anything. This is on a Verizon Galaxy S5, running Android 5.0.
Basically it seems like I am pulling up a menu that was supposed to be hidden. Oddly enough, now, when I go to Settings and look under "Wireless and networks" and click on "More networks" the "Download booster" option just shows up for me as if it was supposed to be there.
Anyways here are two different methods that may have made it work:
NOTE : Before doing these steps, I had "Hangouts" set as my default messaging app.
Method 1
1) Settings > Applications
2) Go to "Messages"
3) Click on "Default Messaging app"
4) When a prompt comes up saying "Change messaging app?" choose "Yes"
5) Click on "Default Messaging app" again
6) This time it takes you to a "More networks" screen
7) Click "Download booster" and turn it on.
8) Set your default messaging app back to Hangouts if you prefer it
Method 2
1) Open "Hangouts"
2) Go to "Settings" and then "SMS"
3) Click on "SMS enabled - touch to change your default SMS app"
4) It takes you to a "More networks" screen
5) Click "Download booster" and turn it on.
6) Set your default messaging app back to Hangouts if you prefer it
Basically I am just looking for someone to give this a try and see if they see the same thing. If it works, great - if not, I will remove this post (or at least update the title) so people don't waste their time. It definately seems to be enabled on my stock S5, and when I tried downloading a large file it seemed to kick in.
On lollipop 5.0 all you have to do is go to settings more networks is on the top

So on Lollipop, the Verizon S5 has it enabled / available by default? Wow.. I feel stupid.
Can you guys confirm that it actually boosts the download speed? It should show the icon at the top and show activity. Think there is a display in the pulldown add well when it is active

Odd Dialer Behavior

I need some help fixing my dialer. Here is the problem, I have the Google Marshmallow Dialer set as the default dialer, so when I get ready to select contacts or dial, I use that app. When I press the call button, it switch makes the call using the Huawei dialer. Is this changeable?
I want to use the Google dialer like on my nexus 6. What am I missing here? Any help is appreciated!
