Stock android Dialer and Contacts app?

I just got the sensation today. (I'm coming from nexus one running cyanogenmod). There's really only a few things about sense 3.0 that I like. The camera app, the lockscreen, some of the widgets, and the quick notification widgets (although I like cm7's implimentation MUCH better). Anyways I'm hoping that once the bootloader gets unlocked we'll be able to get cyanogenmod on it, but until then is it possible to get a few stock apps on the sensation?
The only things from sense I'd maybe like to keep in a more "stock rom" would be the camera app and the lockscreen. Everything else I don't really care for. =\
I want the these apps.
* Dailer
* Contacts
* Gallery

U don't like the smart dialer? It's leagues better than the stock dialer...

I made the same transition as you. At first I hated the dialer and contacts, but they've grown on me.
However that gallery does suck total nuts. You can go in the market and download gallery 3d which is (as far as i can tell) the standard gallery you're used to. I'm using it and it feels right at home.
I absolutely can't wait until we can have CM7.1 on this thing.
Also.. is it just me... or are you totally missing the trackball? I keep trying to adjust the cursor with it when editing text just to get disappointed that it's not there...

No...I hate it. I've accidentally called the wrong person already because it doesn't ask if I want to call. Also it isn't showing contacts pictures when calling? Wtf? It just looks ugly to me compared to the stock android dialer. The contacts app is worse. AOSP contact app is so much simpler looking and just all around better.

I hate the gallery app, it sucks so much. Also i've taken a few pics that auto upload to google+ and it shows the date it was taken as jan 1st 1970. WHatttt?
I've only had it for 8 hours so far, and i've already done that at least a dozen times. I used the trackball just for going back a little to make corrections. Going to take a bit to get use to, but in time I will.
I can't wait for CM7.1 on the sensation. Sense to me is just ugly. I like gingerbread's status bar, and the notification widgets in cyanogenmod so much better than sense...It's ugly. Also I don't see the point of putting the recent apps in the pull down bar....
Good thing for launcherpro plus

I am also hunting for the AOSP style dialer...initially when the MT4G came out and was rooted you could just push the contacts/dialer apk to system/app and change the permissions and it would work. I have had no such luck with the Perma-Temp root on the Sensation...

I'm in the same boat here and can't stand the dialer or gallery. Thanks for the tip on Gallery 3d Picked this phone up because it looks and feels just like a larger faster version of the N1 and I figure it will be rooted sooner or later.

The stock Gallery and stock Email
Both work,pm me if you want a copy of them

I guess it just comes down to what you're use to. I'm use to the 3d gallery because I've had the n1 since launch. I'm trying out quick pic though. Anything is better than the gallery app on the sensation. Sense really has left me a bit underwhelmed. The only things i'd want to keep from sense is the lockscreen and the camera app.

your right. I had n1 at launch too. I wanted to like the gallery cause it looked cool, but didn't function that well. Plenty times I has to reboot just for a pic I just took to show. I found Quick pic and been using it since

Lol @ that 3D gallery. I hated it on my MT4G and this gallery is cool IMO. Didn't like Touch Wiz on the Vibrant or Sense on the MT4G........flashed a 3.0 rom and loved it. So I bought a Sensation. I'm just curious to know why buy something you already know you don't like? To each their own.

[ROM] CM6 - What do you want??? :D

I know that there are many 2.2 ROMs here in the forums. But i want to make something CM based wether its like my FroSense or something else YOU want.
Tell me what you would want!!!
Its my LAST project for the G1 because i will get a Desire Z on christmas.
I will still support my ROMs but i have to make it like 'blind' D

Your last G1 rom? So does that mean you've given up on froyo sense...? And its only September man, Xmas is in December.got a lil bit a time to do some Dev'n xD

Just SPEED
What I want:
Android 2.*
Fast rom
If you have to make a decision: choose the fastest option.
A G1 is no beautiful device. But the keyboard is what I love. So: Theming is not important for me. Just make it as fast as possible. That's what's counting to keep the G1 alive.

Stable speed and battery life

I want a fast, stable, cm6..Maybe use Zeam as launcher for more speed. I agree with GZFan, Themeing is not important. Just something light and quick

Fast and have transparent status bar

Like i said. I will still support my roms... im working on every rom right now xD
Okay good suggestions. Lets get some more. I think transparent status bar is a bit weird but i gonna try it xD
Sent from my HTC Magic/G1 using XDA App

speed, speed and more speed xD
CM6 has lots of options and cool stuff but its slow and laggy on the G1

Definitely have apps2ext for more speed too , if possible id like to see the 3d gallery removed, i hate it, its sluggish to me.. I use quickpic fo gallery viewing. Im not sure if replacing gallery is possible though

It's easily possible to remove the gallery but i think the most of us wont like that^^

you know running apps on sd-ext is slower than from internal memory...... right?
apps2sdext is for getting more, slightly slower, space for apps

Lol, well i guess the gallery stays. If i remove gallery manually via adb and push a new gallery, will it work properly?

I was always under the impression that putting apps on sd-ext partition is faster. Something to do with sd-ext partition mounting before the ROM loads completely?
Im newbish so i could be wrong, thanks.

Just uninstall it via Titanium Backup..^^

i want a fast 2.2 or 2.3. transpaent sb would be amazing. i already applied zdunx25's sb patch for transparency with red x's lunar ui theme. it looks pretty nice but transparent sb doesn't work too well

Has anyone tried Overskreen (floating browser) on the note?

This video makes it looks pretty good. .
It would be nice to have two browers or apps open at the same time. .

Looks amazing from the video. I am searching it now to try out. Intrigued by the 3d luncher too

Yeah it's pretty awesome. I have the window above my messaging application to text and surf. Works very well.

i just bought it. .its actually a nice app .i think its only going to get better with a bit more customization. . i dont have a Tab but imagine this would be a must have app for tab owners..
also downloaded aircalc (which is free). . nice little floating calculator. .

You guys get Stick It and OverSkreen by dev myboyfriendisageek?
It works but I like Cornerstones way of 3 dedicated windows for any app. Anyone know if Cornerstone is releasing anything soon?

Its something that modifies the Android framework, so it cannot be a regular app. It has to be cooked into the ROM by the developer in order to be used. It's also incredibly unstable and is renown for breaking root access while open. The kinks are being worked out...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium HD app

I got it yesterday and it is as good as the video shows. Very smooth. If they can get OverSkreen to work with other apps (like cornerstone onskreen does) it would truly be amazing!

im speechless.....very good app!..THANKS!!!!

Looks cool kinda would be sweet if you had the option to use say chrome or a different browser vs being stand alone browser?

Thanks for the tip!
I just installed this app, and wow! I wasn't even sure I had any use for it, but after a couple minutes I was enjoying the heck out of it. I usually use the desktop view in my regular browser (Dolphin), so I'll just keep this one in mobile view and use it for quickly checking out links without switching away from Tweetdeck or whatever I'm in. In fact, it's awesome to be able to click a link, start that page loading, and then continue browsing through tweets or posts while the page/video/whatever is loading in the Overskreen window.
It's very smooth, too; almost too responsive, if that's possible. I'm impressed.
The one down side is lack of flash support in Android 2.x. However, 3.0 and 4.0 are supported, so that shouldn't be an issue for much longer. If I need to visit a flash site, I can just jump over to Dolphin anyway.

coldfusion
yea the video looks great.

Look great. I will test asap.

Downloaded it and it is kinda cool concept
Useful on landscape mode mostly
Give it a try

they just had an update for it. .couple of cool new features

i bought this and love it. are there any other launchers or apps that work like this? feels more like a PC every day.

another update today. .with sliding tabs. . this is becoming my favorite browser and overall app. .

Thanks for letting us know about this, I installed it without knowing if it was something I would use but on first run I saw many benefits, especially on a large screen device like the Note.
I particularly liked the fact you can view YouTube vids full screen then scale the browser window to whatever size you want, then maybe have a cool tutorial video in the corner as you work on the app underneath!
It was a bit pricey but I think in this case it was worth it.

[APP][2.1+] NEXT LAUNCHER by Go Dev Team

Hi all,
Go Dev Team has provided a new launcher, still in beta test : Next Launcher, with 3D effects, smooth transitions, integration widgets, and more is coming.
Go Dev Team recommends have a phone running at least on Android 2.3.3, with a dual core processor, a screen resolution of 800x480 to take advantage of the application.
Here a video : Youtube
Here is download link :
See screenshots in attachment.
What's new on V3 :
1.(New) Slide up/down on the Dock to switch the status of screens (‘Screen preview’ or ‘Screen edit’ status)
2.(New) Drag the icons which on the Dock (Long press an icon—> Drag it to the screen-area or reverse from the screen)
3.(New) Change the wallpaper (Long press the screen—> Wallpaper —> Choose a wallpaper)
4.(New) Whirl icons or reset them (Lone press an icon —> Click ‘Whirl’ or ‘Reset (3rd and 4th option in the pop-up menu))
5.(Fix) Some bugs from users’ feedback
Older versions :

Ill be keeping an eye on this...Thanks for showing!!

I am using this launcher from very begining.What i have noticed that with adding the new fetures it looses its smoothness.

seems good
lets see

Launcher is very smooth for now. Like Go launcher past times. I hope they don't change that. Smothness is the most important thing for me

Yes its really smooth this and I like the new features effects.
Also the fact the grid on desktop for icons isn't locked.
All I need is a skinning option and the go launchers free memory option and I'm set.

The original go launcher runs a bit sluggish on my HTC G2. Guess Im out for this one...

Think again
This Next Launcher is very different than Go Launcher : lighter, smoother, more responsive...
I'm actually surprised he was developed by Go Dev Team
I run on Xperia X10, and this is perfect !

i tryed an older version i think, in my sgs+ and crashed every time...hope this is a more stable version... i'm going to download it...
thnx anyway for your work.

Let go dev to add all features . It is a big challenge for them to keep launcher smoothness as well as mem used same as it has now.

I love the effects in this launcher . Thanks for this thread, otherwise i may not have noticed this.

This looks like a fork of GO with more bling at the cost of less features. I am not impressed and probably won't try it again any soon - I am mostly happy with GO Launcher EX.

Do you have permission from the Go team to post and support this? If not then the I would advice that you contact them before opening a thread on this. They do not have the greatest track record here so be careful.

Uh ... Indeed, I had not thought of. I sent them an email as requested, I expect a response from them.
Can I know what happened with Go dev team ?

I like my s4

My name is Stijn I'm from Holland and this is my second Android phone. Before i bought my s4 I had a HTC desire. I had the desire for three years after it started to act up when getting hot. Found out this was a hardware defect and decided to buy the s4. I havev the i9505 with the snapdragon soc.
First of I was a bit disappointed about the smoothness of the phone. Animations where not all that smooth and I experienced lag using the phone in general. I was surprised however about the possibilities It presented out of the box. The video player for example has the option to play content on your smart tv . This worked great for me. I like the keyboard, the toggles in the drop down notification panel, and was not as bothered with touch wiz as I expected to be coming from CM on my desire. Also the watchon app that can act as a remote for your tv is cool.
So when opting for a custom rom I chose a stock based rom. Omega v3 was the one I went for.
It simple enough to flash when you follow instructions, but a bit of a hassle as you have to flash a stock firmware first. Lots to download!
Strait after flashing i noticed a big difference. Almost all lag was gone. Then I desided to flash a custom kernel. I went for fauxes as I used his kernel on my n7 and liked it.
After this I had the phone I wanted all along performance wise. No lag and blazing fast. Both the rom and kernel allow you a lot of tweak lots of stuff to make it act the way you want to. Worth mentioning is the app omega files that comes with the rom. It was updated yesterday and it gives you lots of freedom to change anything in the rom, from themes and mods to actual kernels that are compatible with the rom. Great stuff!
I also installed the 3 minit framework mod found in the android dev section. Man this app is great. It let's you change a lot of ui components on the fly with a well designed app that comes with the mod. Things like statusbar color, icons and many more are now under my control. And the dev is expanding the mod as we speak. You can make feature requests in the corresponding thread and they are implemented really quickly. Keep it UP Gharrington!
Also installed an app from the market wich allows for every app to be runned in multi Window mode. Nice.
I also bought the samsung mhl cable . It works great but the fact by our can't turn the screen of the phone of while it's displaying your android on the TV is annoying. Of course there is a root app that gives you this possibility. Yey to root.
Things I would like to test are miracast or allshare wireless screen mirroring and the dock with hdmi and usb ports.
Let me know what your experience is with your custom or stock rom and what you do with your phone.
