I can't believe I'm the only one who hates this, but since I can't find an answer and since no one is responding to my other post, I'm wondering if I am the only person who is experiencing this problem... Please answer this for me.
When you place a call using the stock Samsung dialer, do you see your friend's facebook status pop up, only for a couple seconds? Mine shows the status while the call is connecting, but just for a second or two. Then it disappears from the screen when the call connects.
Its a very handy feature to see the person's status but VERY annoying that it doesn't display long enough to read it! There has to be a way to change this.

I flashed the ROM yesterday and noticed a couple of things.
When I went to People and did a contact search by name, the result came up with a black screen. I hit menu and I could edit the contact and the all the information would come up. I could dial from that point on.
Also, I had a call come in and the screen was blank with no contact info or incoming call on the screen.
Lastly, went to change the Theme on ADW Launcher, and when I switched Themes, a bunch of apps were opened and I had to back out or close everything. The web browser was one app that opened, and I had to hit the power button off, then back on, as hitting the back arrow would not close the app.
I had the odd call thing happen today as well. First and only time it has happened. The phone rang, or appeared to, yet when I went to grab the call there was no screen notification of any call and no way to answer it. To top is off, the phone app never showed either a missed call or a left voice mail. Made me wonder if instead of a call, it was a random triggering of my ringtone with no call behind it.
There are a few quirks that Im finding out.
Most annoyingly is that the phone does not have my contact number or cell number.
is there a way to fix this as Ive read its the SIM that needs to be identified and I guess flashing the ROM erased my identity to the Inspire when I did this?
I cannot use TiKL or people do not have my number appear on their phone if I call them....
I got HTC Desire and on Oxygen rom and I got few questions regarding stock gingerbread experience and hoping people come across work around for annoyances I'm having. I know some of questions are better suited for specific forum for applications but I just want to throw everything out here and see if anyone knows.
1. Miss call notification it's driving me nuts. I use "Go Contacts" because of T9 search. In notification I press miss call person and it still stays in notification. I remember reading in the past developers can't get rid of it with some reason due to gingerbread change. Anyone got work around for this without solution being use stock caller?
2. I'm using LauncherPro's bottom icon notification feature for miss calls/sms. Only problem is I press calls and it still say I got miss calls with whatever number miss call I got unless I press on the number I miss called. How can I make it so I can get rid of notification of LauncherPro when I press phone contact button or something?
3. I use Handcent and it has great feature of changing LED light into blue and it makes so it much easier to know when I got sms even when charging. I'm not sure if it's because I use Full Screen Caller ID or I pressed LED root feature where I can change colour to what ever I want but it just doesn't work any more even after I disabled LED root feature.
Because of it I'm thinking maybe use separate app for notification or something if they exist?
Many thanks in advance and let me know if anyone have better way of handle miss call notification issue!
I have HTC Desire S, used all kinds of dialer apps and had the same unread-count problem.
However, after I changed my original ROM to LBA (and also changed the launched to GO Launcher so it might also be related) - it was fixed!
I don't know how, but it's working fine now.
I have posted here but recieved no answer. I figured my question belongs here anyway, so I won't bump the other thread.
I am trying to use Hangouts as my default SMS app (It is also currently the only SMS app installed on my device) because I do like it. However I noticed that sometimes I don't get any notification when I recieve a text message, no vibration, nor sound nor notification in the status bar. As a result, I miss quite a lot of texts. Notice that I do recieve those texts, if I check the app they are there, text bold to indicate they are not yet read. I just don't get the notification. Also, most of the time I do get the notifications without a problem. So to be clear, this is about some SMS's, not about all.
As far as I know this happens when I recieve the message very shortly after I put down my phone (my routine: send text, press 'backbutton' once to get in the hangouts overview, and then I press power to shut of the screen and put the phone down.) If I get a message let's say within half a minute of me turning of the screen I won't have a clue I recieved the message until I go look in hangouts to check. This happens often when someone is quick to respond to my own message, but could maybe be happening with other messages I recieve in that time. I don't think this happens to messages I recieve when the screen has been off for a time, but I can't say that with certainty.
I have a HTC One S currently running CM11, but I had this problem on stock ROM too. However never with the HTC stock messaging app.
I have found similar problems here on the forums, but no satifying answers. I hope someone has a solution?

Hello, on my new zfold2 the incoming call screen does not show when calls arrive. The phone rings, but the lock screen remains, basically i cannot answer the call until I unlike the device, go to the pull down menu and then see the incoming call to be able to answer it. I've searched whether there is a setting for this, but nothing...anyone can help me? thanks.
Same here. Fix?

I have not found anything yet. Must be a setting issue, i Hope!
Same here.
I've been using the Google dialer since using this phone and have had no issues. Not sure if this is really the answer that you're all looking for, but it may be a workaround for you until the stock phone app is updated.

I too was facing issues with the stock phone dialer, though the issue was different. It was not registering my touch or registering it after repeated attempts while wanting to make calls. Touch screen otherwise works fine.
Using a different Dialer now - True Phone app. and all issues of touch have been sorted out.
I had that problem, turns out for my problem was that I had do not disturb turned on. Doubt that's the same for you guys but just thought id share. Thanks.
Have you found any solution?
The other day I got a call from someone in my contacts who regularly calls me and the phone screened it , it never did that before. Any reason why it would do such a weird uncalled for type of thing all of a sudden.. ? Thanks
Anyone ?
Maybe your Flaky game is causing more problems than you realize?
Game causing the phone to screen a known person in contacts?? Hmm I don't think so

Lol, he made word for word response in another thread. Not sure how that happened
You might have had screen unlocked and accidentally tapped the screen call button in the notification banner.

This has happened to me before or turn off screen calling? I find everyone just hangs up when I screen their calls
I have the same issue. I had to turn Call Screen completely off as it was not even screening, but actually treating calls from my wife and kids (who are obviously in my contacts) as if they were spam and sending them directly to Voicemail, phone wouldn't even ring or show the missed call in the call log. I would just see a missed call notification. I have had this same issue on both the QPRs as well as the Stable release, so it isn't something introduced in the most recent QPR. It very well may have existed since I got the phone back in Oct. I raised a bug report, but never heard anything back on it.
My call screening won't even activate. It's been sitting there saying activating (requires wi-fi) since last night.
